==About==
'''MetaStation''' is a largely complete work-in-progress map available in the /tg/ code, mainly intended for the odd use by admins to spice up rounds. It has been play-tested briefly, and is stable for general use, though some changes are planned to improve gameplay. Feedback is very much encouraged and has been used to mold what the map has become, post [http://forums.nanotrasen.com/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=12512 in this thread] if you what to change what it becomes in future.
'''MetaStation''' is a largely complete work-in-progress map available in the /tg/ code as an alternative to the default map. MetaStation was previously run on Badger, and is now the defualt map on the second official /tg/ server, [byond://game.ss13.eu:2337 Philip]. It has been play-tested quite extensively and has been generally well received. Due to this play-testing, it is now largely bug free, and most feedback revolves around gameplay changes and balancing. Please give any feedback you may have [http://www.ss13.eu/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=358 in this thread], and rest assured that the map is regularly updated according to such feedback.


 
'''Points to note are that:'''
'''Notable differences are that:'''
* It is more open, so attacks in public are harder to get away with.
* It is more open, and harder to play for traitors (for now).
* It has a much larger maintenance system, so quieter, stealthy attacks are easier.
* The AI is also more vulnerable, but is next to security for safety.
* The AI is in a more vulnerable position, but is directly adjacent to security for some protection.
* The two above points give more power to the masses. Beware cultists and revolutionaries.
* It feels significantly larger than the default map, and plays best with a population of at least 30 or so.
* The maintenance tunnels are less extensive than those in vanilla-/tg/ (for now).
* It is a bit larger than vanilla-/tg/, and plays best with a population of at least 30 or so.
* The escape shuttle is larger, with a cargo hold to encourage players to bring any new or valuable equipment back to CentComm.
* The escape shuttle is larger, with a cargo hold to encourage players to bring any new or valuable equipment back to CentComm.
* All roles which have maintenance access around their department now have access to the nearest hallway's maintenance door, too.
* Most rooms and departments are largely as they are in the vanilla-/tg/ map, but rearranged to keep things fresh.
