nickcrazy Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 You know we need? CHESS! Some way or another, we need a playable chess game two people can play on the station, either located in the library or in the dorms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamania Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Yes please. This'd give me something to do in my idle time when playing Bartender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farya Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Yes please. This'd give me something to do in my idle time when playing Bartender. And one set in permabrig as well. So criminal scum could entertain themself a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agentCDE Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Game night in the Library, anyone? Bonus points if it has checkers too. And the ability to flip the table in a rage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProperPants Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 I don't think it's big enough for this, but it would be neat as hell to make it a holodeck room. My school has this giant outdoor chess set where the pieces are about a meter tall - I've never played it, but it looks like fun. You have to move pieces with two hands and walk across the board. Then, when you capture someone's piece, you can kick or punch it down or something cool like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've talked about it a couple times internally, and one of the things we agreed upon is that if we implement VR, it would likely be used as a complete replacement of the holodeck, with the current holodeck area being converted into an arcade / VR connection point. Adding checkers would definitely be simpler than adding chess, due to generally simpler rules, but both are possible. I wouldn't mind seeing them added myself, though I'm not sure what would be the best way to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickcrazy Posted April 11, 2016 Author Share Posted April 11, 2016 So apparently Goon has some form of chess in their code, able to play checkers as well. Now I'm not sure how open Goon is with their code but would anyone be able to get that feature? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just for small feature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrAzYPiLoT Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 BestRP and Unbound actually had holographic tables in the bar and library, which connected to some chess site, which in turn allowed you to play chess. Unbound's Git repo is still up, and looking at it, they also had sudoku, flappy bird, mahjong and solitaire implemented besides chess. If I find time, I may port the tables.

It required Adobe Flash, though. I'd prefer something that didn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrAzYPiLoT Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 Ah, yes. I'll try to figure something out. My first kinda-big project. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrAzYPiLoT Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 I do have something in the making, just a few more bugs to squish, and I'll put up a PR. EDIT: Rejoice! https://github.com/ParadiseSS13/Paradise/pull/4220 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrAzYPiLoT Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 Alright, the PR has been merged, we just wait for patch now. The board is buildable, but it has not been mapped in at roundstart, as there are multiple locations it can go in. This thread can be closed now. Actually, let's review the locations here. Possible locations include: Permabrig Just right of Bar doors Library Maybe a defunct one in the old bar? (Prolly would be too many of them on roundstart in this case) Suggest any other locations, and I'll check back in some time to see where it can be mapped in.

Harrivchaw Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 Cool, how about placing one in the library? It'd go well with the nerdy atmosphere. Also, is it currently possible to print a chess board circuit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrAzYPiLoT Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 Whoopsie, forgot that part. I'll make a PR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
