Goonstation is a community-maintained branch of the classic Space Station 13 (SS13) game, built on the BYOND / DMM / DM engine and custom code, with extensive maps, gameplay mechanics, user interfaces, and game modes. The repository houses the full game code, assets (maps, sound, icons, interface), configuration, and tools for running and contributing to a Goonstation server. It aims to offer a stable, feature-rich, roleplay/game environment with many custom systems (e.g., unique mechanics,...

...It uses optimized rendering techniques to draw tiles, buildings, roads, and terrain in isometric perspective, giving depth and dimension without 3D complexity, and includes a set of modular components so custom art or tile sets can be slotted in effortlessly. Users can pan and zoom smoothly across the scene, dynamically placing or editing objects, and the engine supports layered terrain, collision detection, and grid snapping to keep placements accurate and visually coherent. Although often used for game prototypes, the project’s flexible architecture also fits use cases like simulation dashboards, planning tools, or interactive data visualizations where spatial layout matters.

...To ensure smooth gameplay, it uses efficient networking techniques along with position interpolation and extrapolation. The framework manages user input coordination and shadow objects to reduce the impact of latency. Built-in physics and pseudo-physical movement help create realistic interactions between game entities. Overall, Lance focuses on delivering a smooth visual experience while keeping multiplayer logic reliable.
