Any previous experience developing with SS13? I don't have any prior experience developing for SS13. Happy to learn though, in fact that just makes it more appealing!
Proof of any previous or current work: Edit: Redacted this as I'm a cretin and didn't realise it's just some floating public app. Happy to share over PM. I work as a gameplay engineer so making games is sorta my jam
How well do you know Git? I've been using it for many years now, both as part of my University CS course and on a bunch of other smaller projects. I like to keep branches small and merge often. At work we don't use Git but similar software that fulfills the same role of source control. If I'm writing code I'm using source control!
Your primary job is server development, not policing the server. You may be given Moderator-level of access but you should *not* be invoking any administrative actions unless there are no moderators or Admins online. Do you understand? Yes
Anything else you'd like to add? Colonial Marines has always been a huge blast to play. I love the mad fusion of heavy role playing in an incredibly stressful environment where death loves to jump out at you from every crevice and suspiciously xeno-filled vent. I've never done anything important in a round; staying alive was enough of a burden for someone like me to achieve and I still love it! The attention to detail and passion for the source material is amazing and I'd love the opportunity to learn how to (and help where I can) push the BYOND Client past its wildest ambitions like your amazing marine slaughterhouse does every day. It's safe to say a multiplayer session in the corps is always a special and gruesome one that I won't forget.
