It interests me the most out of everything on SS13 and I really don't want this thread to die. Mechanic is my favourite job but is hardly ever talked about, it's always Chemists, Roboticists and the AI.
DWAINE: has it's own help function. Just type help when logged into the mainframe. There really isn't much to know. The wiki has a good bit of information on it, so maybe you should start there.
RegEx: type is PCRE but it doesn't support look ahead or look behind. I wrote this in an earlier topic on simple usage http://forum.ss13.co/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=5043&#p56059 || Marq commented on flag usage, which is correct, but it's bugged. Or was. I haven't checked it in a while. If you want more, or just want to test your regex without hopping into ss13, then just type regex into google. There are tons of resources for it
Packets: The wiki in general has some good information on this too. Hands on learning would be going to tech storage and listening to the packet sniffer or going about the station with an ND cart. More advanced topics can be found on Zamujasa's wikipage listed earlier. That's probably the most in-depth resource on packets we have. Thank they for that. Zamujasa also goes a little into DWAINE scripting too, I think, which can make your ss13 life easier in some respects.
