SS13 comes with a pre-built OOC channel, accessed simply by using the command 'OOC "text"'. OOC is for asking simple, non-game mode questions. What you have to remember is that no in-character information can be stated in OOC. This means no asking questions about what kind of round it is, no getting pissy over dying, or even mentioning that you're dead. | SS13 comes with a pre-built OOC channel, accessed simply by using the command 'OOC "text"'.
