Maps on Beestation

In Use BoxStation, DeltaStation, MetaStation, FlandStation, KiloStation, CorgStation, RadStation
Outdated, removed, or not in rotation RuntimeStation, GlowStation, PubbyStation


Map Rotation

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.

The current, and next selected, map information is located in the 'Status' tab.

In Rotation Maps

These maps are currently in rotation and can be selected and played on.

BoxStation

Map Image Information Additional Points
BoxStation is widely regarded as the "official" map of SS13. 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. Notes
  • The map has been used consistently on /tg/station since 2010.
  • The station is heavily central on the starboard wing -- all the action happens there.
  • There are several small crevices to perform distasteful acts.
  • Maintenance is designed to provide an outer shell to most of the station.
  • All locations information on this wiki is sourced from Box station.

MetaStation

Map Image Information Additional Points
MetaStation is a fully-functioning map available on the /tg/ codebase as an alternative to BoxStation. It is currently available on both Sibyl and Basil, if players vote it in using the map-vote system. It was previously the default map on the /tg/ servers Badger and later Basil, and various edited versions have run on NoxStation, /vg/, and Paradise Station.

MetaStation ran on Basil for a long time and has been tested extensively, being generally well received. It is largely maintained and updated by 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.

Notes
  • It is geared towards higher populations than BoxStation.
  • Key areas are more evenly spread to reduce local overcrowding.
  • It feels much more open, attacks in public are harder to get away with.
  • It has a large maintenance system covering most of the station, useful for stealthier tactics.
  • There are in-game maps and direction signposts on the walls of the station to help you find your way.
  • The escape shuttle has more seats, a large cargo bay, and larger medbay, brig, and bridge.
  • Feedback is welcome in this thread on the tgstation forums.

PubbyStation

Map Image Information Additional Points
PubbyStation is a map inspired by Box and Meta but smaller and pure, it was created by pubby. Notes
  • The map plays best with 20-40 players.
  • The Chaplain and Curator get an entire space monastery.
  • PubbyStation is the only in-rotation map that still uses the Singularity/Tesla Engine.
  • Feedback is welcomed in this thread on the tgstation forums.

DeltaStation

Map Image Information Additional Points
DeltaStation is a map heavily influenced by Meta and Box, with a large centralized bridge area. Intended for higher populations, the map features a more fleshed out and spacious interior lushly decorated and accomodating a large number of potted plants. A large maintenance with a number of useful half-built rooms and areas give antagonists a large variety of spacious areas to make their on station bases and hiding places. It is currently maintained by Okand37, though others are welcome to suggest additions and edits. Notes
  • This map is best suited for 50+ players.
  • An expansive maintenance is included with this station, largely recognized as a 'second station' with a number of areas, tools, items and machines.
  • The Supermatter is located in Atmospherics.
  • Feedback is welcomed in this thread on the tgstation forums.

KiloStation

Map Image Information Additional Points
I don't have an image of the map but all maps are on the beestation website, https://beestation13.com/map. KiloStation is a very small and condensed map, intended for lower populations, the map features a very compact and decorated interior. It is built off of an asteroid. Notes
  • This map is best suited for 1 - 60 players.
  • This station's maintenance has lots of dangers, but with danger comes good loot, if you look past the holodeck to the left you will see a secret vault that has a gun.
  • There are 2 atmospheric hardsuits instead of the normal 1.
  • Feedback is welcomed in this thread on the tgstation forums.

Not in rotation but still important

These maps either aid in maintaining the game or will be added in the future.

RuntimeStation

Map Image Information Additional Points
Runtime Station designed to test new features without having to load a whole new station every time. Notes
  • All doors bear no access.
  • Has a simple engine room.
  • Has two large testing areas.
  • Spawns with fully equipped medical/RnD/engineering areas and a rudimentary atmos setup (no scrubbers).
  • Roundstart mice spawns and space/lavaland ruins can be disabled in config.
