The server currently uses a unique map rotation feature that will swap between maps based on player map preferences, these being located in your character setup page. The game is weighed to use Boxstation as the default station but will, depending on player preferences and how long the current round has lasted, have a higher chance to use another map.


'''BoxStation''' is widely regarded as the "official" map of SS13, though the situation is quickly changing as new maps are becoming more popular. It may be confusing at first, but it is actually neatly organized, so that every department gets their own wing. The Command Sector is in a centralized location, holding the [[Bridge]], the [[Gravity Generator]] and the [[AI Upload]]. Other departments extend out into various wings around the command sector.
The current, and next selected, map information are located in the 'Status' tab.


= In Rotation Maps =
These maps are currently in rotation, and can be selected and played on.

|'''MetaStation''' is a fully-functioning map available on the /tg/ codebase as an alternative to the default map, BoxStation. It is currently running on Basil, /tg/'s second server, and has run several times on Sybil. It was the default map on Badger, an older /tg/ server, an older version of the map was running on NoxStation for a while, and two forked variants of the map are playable on /vg/ and Paradise Station. The has been tested extensively and has been generally well received. It is largely maintained and updated by '''[[User:Metacide|Metacide]]''', though it uses the work of many others, and has been worked on by various other people who have updated and maintained the map over its history.
