Map making?
How would I go about it? And is it really hard to do? Because I have ideas that I'd love to see in a map and instead of making someone do it, I'll do it myself, yknow?

Re: Map making?
The first thing you do is download a codebase, I'd recommend downloading a codebase that you play on often (so if you play on CM mainly, use the next best thing which would be BayStation).
After you finish downloading the code base, I would put it somewhere on your desktop in a folder. From there, go to your BYOND launcher, open it, go to SS13, and click the cog in the top right labelled "menu", and click "Start Dream Maker".
After that, a Dream Maker will pull up and you will want to go to the top left and click "Open Environment" and then you'll want to navigate to find the codebase file you downloaded. You'll want to click on the file that says "BYOND Environment" under "Type" and give it time to open up.
After it loads up, you'll want to open a map file by clicking on the "File" tab in the top left next to "Object" and finding a map file, which will look something like (Map Name).dmm.
Open that up and you'll finally be able to mess with a map.
