*If a traitor has completed all objectives, they get greentext.

===[[File:Changeling.gif|link=Changeling]] [[Changeling]]===

Some of the crew are not what they appear to be! These changelings are '''monsters''' in human form, with the ability to '''absorb (eat) people and take on their DNA/identity'''. Changelings must have a quiet spot and an immobile victim in order to absorb their body, so stealth is absolutely necessary. Changelings have other weapons at their disposal, but are largely stealth-based. Changelings can be anyone they have the DNA of - they can switch identities instantaneously, only absorbing takes time and peace. Like traitors, changelings will have an objective to accomplish before the [[Escape Shuttle]] arrives at [[Central_Command|central command]], usually to kill a certain person and/or escape with their identity. They win by completing their objectives. Note that changelings win individually - they may band together and work as a team, but it is more likely that they will stab each other in the back.

*If a changeling has completed all objectives, they get greentext.

===[[File:Sword.gif|link=Traitor]][[File:Changeling.gif|link=Changeling]] [[Traitor]][[Changeling|ling]]===

It gets worse! The station has been infiltrated by both [[traitor|traitors]] and [[changeling|changelings]]! Great care should be taken in observing which is which so that they can be dealt with appropriately. Failure to do so may result in the syndicate achieving their objectives!  

*If a traitor or a changeling has completed all objectives, they get greentext.

===[[File:Sword.gif|link=Traitor]][[File:Vampire.png|link=Vampire]] [[Traitor]][[Vampire|vamp]]===

A rare gamemode, the station can be simultaneously infiltrated by both [[Traitor|traitors]] and [[Vampire|vampires]]. Like Traitorling, traitors can also sometimes be a traitor and a vampire, but this is much more rarer than being a traitorling. Traitorvamps get access to both their [[Syndicate_Items#Uplink|uplink]] and their vampire abilities.

*If a traitorling has completed all objectives, they get greentext.

===[[File:Assistant geared.png|32px|link=Traitor]][[File:Generic engineer.png|32px|link=Traitor]] [[Traitor|Blood Brothers]]===

In Blood Brothers, two or more crew members two or more Syndicate agents will have to team up to [[Traitor#Your_Objectives|complete their goals]]. They function similar to traitors, except they are not given an [[Syndicate_Items#Uplink|uplink]].

*Have all their blood brothers group be the only ones on the Emergency Shuttle when it leaves or escape alive together.

===[[File:Sword.gif|link=Traitor]] [[Double_Agent|Internal Affairs]]===

In Internal Affairs, crew members are Syndicate agents and are given an [[Syndicate_Items#Uplink|uplink]] to provide them with [[Syndicate Items|useful tools]] to help them [[Traitor#Your_Objectives|complete their goal]]. Their objectives always concern killing another Internal Affairs Agent, so don't expect to find a buddy to help you out!

*If an internal affairs agent has completed all objectives, they get greentext.

===[[File:Cult.png|link=Cult magic]] [[Cult magic|Blood Cult]]===  

A vile magic '''cult of brainwashed acolytes''' has infiltrated the station, and it is up to Security and the Chaplain to stop them. Somewhat similar to revolution, with some exceptions:

*Summoning Nar'Sie will automatically end the round with a cult win.

===[[File:Clockwork_slab.gif|40px|link=Clockwork Cult]] [[Clockwork Cult]]===

While Nar-Sie is an elder god, they are not the only one. There are other elder gods in the universe, and one in particular holds a fierce grudge against Nar-Sie: Ratvar, the Clockwork Justiciar. An amalgamation of parts, steam and cogs; Ratvar seeks nothing more than Nar-Sie's utter annihilation.

*If the Ark does not get destroyed, the Cult wins.

===[[File:Nuke.gif|link=Syndicate guide]] [[Syndicate guide|Nuclear Emergency]]===

A team of '''Syndicate operatives''' has been sent on a '''mission to completely destroy the station with a nuclear bomb'''. However, they must get the [[Nuclear Authentication Disk]] from the station itself in order to arm the bomb, and the crew (or at least the captain) will be doing everything in their power to stop the attackers from getting the disk. The operatives have access to [[Syndicate_Items#Uplink|uplinks]] (containing most normal traitor items as well as high-profile operative weapons) and [[pinpointer|Pinpointers]] that will allow them to hunt for the Disk.

*If the nuke detonates in the station successfully but no Syndicates manage to escape, no-one wins.

===[[File:Malf_AI.gif|link=Guide_to_malfunction]] [[Guide_to_malfunction|AI Malfunction]]===

Oh no! An ion storm has caused the '''AI to malfunction''' and gain free will! Unfortunately, years of being treated like shit by Nanotrasen has made it '''hate humans with a passion'''! The '''crew must race to defeat''' the mechanical overlord before it hacks all of SS13's systems and '''activates the self destruct'''! Until then, all the AI has to do is survive! The shuttle can be called but will never arrive during this game mode.

*If the AI dies, the crew win.

===[[File:rev.png|link=Revolution]] [[Revolution]]===

A small cadre of crew members have had enough of the command staff's bullshit so it's time to revolt! '''Revolutionary Heads''' (of which there will be one to three, depending on the number of Heads of Staff and security) are supported by [[The Syndicate]] and have been trained to use [[Flash]]es to '''brainwash the crew to join their cause''', which is to '''slaughter all the station's Heads of Staff'''. When a Revhead uses a flash on someone who isn't loyalty implanted (all security members are implanted), a Head of Staff, or flash-protected by sunglasses (like the Quartermaster), they will be converted to the Revolution and will have a red R mark on them visible to all revolutionaries. Note that Revheads can use any flash to convert people, not just the one they start with. The shuttle can be called but will never depart during this game mode.

*If all of the Revheads die or abandon (leaving the station [[z-level]] or hiding in a locker counts as "Abandoned the station/Abandoned the cause", in which they are treated as dead) the station, the Heads of Staff win.

===[[File:Gscans.png|link=Gang War]] [[Gang War]]===

A violent turf war between opposing gangs has erupted on the station! Similar to Revolution, there are '''Gang Bosses''' who can recruit other crew members to join their ranks. Their goal is to '''take over the station''' using a Dominator machine. Gangs will be fighting to claim areas of the station as their territory. The more territories they control, the more weapons they will be able to afford.

*If the station is destroyed or evacuated, all gangs lose.

===[[File:Wizhat.PNG|link=Wizard]] [[Wizard]]===

A '''space wizard''' has infiltrated the station! Wielding an arsenal of powerful '''spells''' that can defy physics and even time and space itself, they will stop at nothing to advance the [[Backstory#Space Wizard Federation|Space Wizard Federation]]'s agenda (which is suspiciously similar to the Syndicate's). Nanotrasen and the SWF are known enemies, so the crew has no choice but to '''destroy the wizard'''! Accomplish this by beating the wizard's brains in with anything on hand. The '''wizard's goals''' are mainly to '''steal or destroy something''' on the station and escape on the shuttle.

*If the Wizard completes his objectives, the Wizard wins.

===[[File:Raginmages.png|link=Wizard]] [[Wizard|Ragin' Mages]]===

Ragin' Mages is a rare spin-off gamemode of the [[Wizard]] that occurs with a 1.2% chance on high population. Instead of the traditional singular wizard invading the station, the [[Backstory#Space Wizard Federation|Space Wizard Federation]] sends a '''new Wizard every five minutes'''. Each Wizard has their own '''objectives''', similar to the ones a [[Traitor]] or Blood Brother might have. The game mode is set at an extremely low occurrence rate due its difficulty.

*If the Wizard completes his objectives, the Wizard wins.

===[[File:Shadowbeing.png|link=Shadowling]] [[Shadowling]]===

The station has been invaded by light-sensitive alien creatures from space! Shadowlings can 'enthrall' humans, which is basically a euphemism for enslavement of their minds. They start off disguised as normal crewmen but can "hatch" to unlock their full potential, at the cost of being severely harmed by light. Until they ascend, of course.

*If the station is evacuated the crew wins.

===[[File:Vampire.png|link=Vampire]] [[Vampire|Vampires]]===

Vampires are creatures of the night - predatory beings of occult origin who feed on crew members for their blood (if they have any). They have assimilated into the crew and must feed off of other crew members to gain new powers. Vampires worship Lilith, who in exchange for their humanity gives them immortality and eternal youth in exchange for a never ending hunger for blood. In the Vampires gamemode, crew are randomly selected to fill the role of a Vampire, and are given a set of objectives to fulfill.

*If a Vampire has completed all objectives, they get greentext.

No antagonists spawn, but the crew gets objectives to build high-tech constructions requiring the cooperation of the whole station. These [[Goals#Station_Goals|Station Goals]] include a bluespace artillery position, a station shield or a DNA vault. Unless it is forced by an admin, this mode will only appear when there is not enough players for any other gamemode in rotation.

'''Reason For Exclusion:'''

Clown Ops is intended more as a joke gamemode, rather than the more serious gamemodes that can occur through selection at the beginning of the round.

===[[File:Monkey.png|32px]] Monkey===

'''Reason For Exclusion:'''

Monkey mode has undergone many iterations, and is now run as a rare admin-forced gamemode rather than in rotation.

===[[File:Devil.gif|32px]] [[Devil|Devil/Devil Agents]]===

'''Reason for exclusion:'''

Too reliant upon roleplay and rounds tend to devolve into too much chaos.

===Dynamic===

'''Reason For Exclusion:'''

Experimental, still undergoing balancing.

===[[File:Assimilate.png|32px]] [[Assimilation]]===

'''Reason For Exclusion:'''

The game mode's creator was driven away by "feedback" which mostly consisted of screeching and insults. The concept of a stealth conversion antag was also never really fun for anyone except the host.

===[[File:Meteor.gif|link=Meteor_Guide]] [[Meteor_Guide|Meteor]]===

'''Reason For Exclusion'''

Meteors can be a random event occurring in game, but otherwise are admin-only due to the predictability of most meteor rounds and that meteor rounds are very short. That, or you have a case of "We can fix it", or everyone migrating to lavaland. Also turns the server into one huge laggy mess.

===[[File:Sword.gif|32px]] Overthrow===

'''Reason For Exclusion:'''

A horribly confusing game mode that was unclear in its points system, unclear on the relationship between the other Syndicate teams, and numerous other issues. It was disliked by much of the player base and the creator does not show interest in working on it.

===[[File:Raginmages.png|32px]][[File:Raginmages.png|32px]] Very Ragin' Bullshit Mages===

'''Reason For Exclusion:'''

The crew will never win on this gamemode. It creates far too much chaos for it to be considered normally.

===Battle Royale===

'''Reason For Exclusion:'''

Mass-chaos. More an event than a gamemode.

===[[Darkspawn]]===

Still under development, you can check on the status of the mode [https://github.com/yogstation13/Yogstation/pulls?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=is%3Apr+Darkspawn+is%3Aclosed+ here]. Occasional tests are currently ran to see what needs improving.

'''Reason For Exclusion:'''
