Game Mode: Difference between revisions

===[[File:Sword.gif]] [[Traitor]]===

The most common game mode in secret. In Traitor, one or more crew members are '''Syndicate agents''' and are given a PDA Uplink to provide them with [[Syndicate Items|useful tools]] to help them '''complete their goal'''. The Crew must find out who the traitors are and stop them from reaching their goal.  

If the Traitors can meet their objectives and are present and alive on a pod or the shuttle when it leaves, they win. However, being in the Shuttle Brig (marked with red flooring) does not count toward escaping and will cause the traitor to fail. Note that traitors win individually - they may band together and work as a team, but it is not required for them to succeed.

* When the [[Emergency Shuttle]] leaves.

===[[File:Changeling.gif]] [[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, such as a toxin dart, but is largely stealth-based. Changeling can be anyone they've absorbed - they can switch identities instantaneously, only absorbing takes time and peace. Like traitors, changelings will most often have an objective to accomplish before the [[Escape Shuttle]] arrives, usually absorb a certain amount of people before escaping. They also win individually, and may choose to back stab one another in order to complete their objectives.

===[[File:Sword.gif]][[File:Changeling.gif]] [[Traitor]] + [[Changeling]]===

The station has been infiltrated by both [[Changeling]]s and [[Traitor]]s! Although rare, it is possible to be both a traitor and a changeling. Traitor-changelings would be given 4 objectives to complete, but can use both a syndicate uplink and their changeling abilities to accomplish them.

* When the [[Emergency Shuttle]] leaves.

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

* If the Shuttle leaves with the Disk on board, the Crew wins a Major Victory.

* If the Shuttle leaves with the Disk still anywhere on the station, the Syndicates win a Minor Victory.

* If the Bomb detonates in the station successfully and the syndicate shuttle escapes, the Syndicate wins a Major Victory.

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

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

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

* If all of the [[Heads of Staff]] present at the beginning of the round die, the Revolution wins. (Head of Personnel, Head of Security, Research Director, Chief Medical Officer, Chief Engineer and Captain)

* If all of the Revolution Leaders die/abandon the station, the Heads win (leaving the station z-level counts as "Abandoned the station/Abandoned the Cause", in which they are treated as dead).

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

*Cultists draw runes from their own blood, requiring arcane tomes to do so.

*Cultists draw on pieces of paper using their own blood (and taking ''some'' brute damage) to gain cult items and powers. Most of the time they have to resort to the drawn runes, though.

*Drawn runes do a number of effects covered in [[cult magic]].

*The shuttle is possible to call and will end the round. Having a number of cultists escape on it is one of the possible objectives.

* If the shuttle leaves without the Cult completing their objectives, the station wins.

* If the shuttle leaves and the Cult complete their objectives, the cult wins.

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

A space wizard has infiltrated the station! Wielding an arsenal of powerful spells that can defy physics and even time and space itself, he will stop at nothing to advance the [[Backstory#Space Wizard Federation|Space Wizard Federation]]'s agenda (which is remarkably 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. The wizard's goals are mainly to steal or destroy something on the station and escape on the shuttle.

* If the shuttle leaves without the Wizard completing his objectives or if the Wizard dies, the Wizard fails.

* If the Wizard completes his objectives and leaves on the shuttle, the Wizard wins.

===[[File:Blob.png]] [[Blob]]===

The Blob is a large growing, sentient creature which destroys everything in its path, attacking whatever gets in the way. Destroy the blob before it destroys the entire station!

===[[File:Malf_AI.gif]] [[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.

The Crew's goals: Cut all security cameras to prevent the AI from screwing with you and the station APCs. Do not touch any doors without making sure the power is out or wearing a set of insulated gloves. Engineering is the number one force on the station due to their stock of insulated gloves and multitools, located in the engine room. Canny Quartermasters can order Engineering crates to supplement this starting supply. The crew must destroy the AI's physical core, and any hacked APCs the AI could be shunted in.

AI's goal: Hack APCs under your control, then set of the system take over for the whole station. The more APCs you hack, the less time (but there will still be time to wait) the crew will have to retaliate against you and more control you have exclusively over the ship systems (but if a camera gets disabled in that area, you cannot control that APC's power functions anymore). You get a few special AI powers you can buy from a list in your AI command list called AI modules (they are very useful to defeat several people who have gotten wise to your actions).

At the start of the round one of the crewmembers is infected with a disease that, after a while, turns them into a monkey with the ability to spread the disease to other humans by biting them. Armor does not help and the transformation takes about a minute. The disease can be cured by eating bananas, which also provides immunity to any further monkey infections. Monkeys can use almost every weapon and tool, excluding guns. Humans cannot understand monkeyspeak, which shows up as "chimpers" to humans, and Monkeys cannot understand human speech, which shows up ''l**e ***s''. The game ends when the Emergency Shuttle leaves. Monkeys also have the ability to crawl though vents but cannot wear or carry anything when doing so. The AI does not consider monkeys to be human, and may kill/contain them with impunity.

* If the Shuttle leaves with no living monkeys aboard, the Crew wins.

* If the Shuttle leaves with any living monkeys aboard, the Monkeys win and spread their magic hoodoo monkeyism to Centcom.

* When the [[Emergency Shuttle]] leaves.
