'''BoxStation''' (also known as '''tgstation''') was first made public in the year 2011 by one of the oldest coders, Noize, and several other unknown collaborators. The preceding map was the Goonstation's [http://wiki.ss13.co/Devstation Devstation a.k.a. Ovary Station a.k.a. Uterus Station], which was supposedly the origin why SS13 is described as a "nonsensical metal deathtrap".

In the beginning, Security was much smaller because of the Prison Wing was located in an off-station satellite (then called Prison Station) just a bit north-west of the Brig. Research Division was located behind Medbay, and "Med-Sci" was the most populated sector of the station. Toxins was set ablaze almost every other round, and the way the map was made meant that the R&D Lab burned down with it. Virology used to be part of the Research Division as well, and Xenobiology held metroids. Robotics was part of the Engineering department at the time.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Maintenance saw an overhaul, increasing in size and complexity.

For a long time, Boxstation stagnated in content, with very few people willing to dedicate themselves to improving Boxstation. Many people felt that Boxstation was due to be replaced due to this inactivity in the face of other popular stations. However, from early 2013, an admin/coder called Ikarrus more or less took the leading role in BoxStation's development, updating and expanding maintenance and generally bringing the station up to code. Due to Ikarrus's development, it spurred a large number of people to suddenly start mapping for Boxstation.  

As of late 2014, Ikarrus stopped regular updates to Boxstation leaving Steelpoint as the primary leading map developer of Boxstation.

These days it's just updated by everyone, with Wjohn occasionally handling major remaps of areas.
