Problem Description: I figured out a way to make macros.

What did you expect to happen: Macros to be unavailable on /tg/ coded servers.

What happened instead: I can make macros.

Why is this bad/What are the consequences: Because lolmacros.

Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. Go to a server using baycode.
2. Click the SS13 icon at the top left hand corner.
3. Make your macro (There's an option for it there.). Make sure it doesn't overlap with any button combinations here already.
4. Go to /tg/.
5. Profit.

Server: I was on Sybil when I realized my macro for LOOC had carried over (although I couldn't use it, obviously). Went to Paradise to test it with /me as well, and it does work.

Revision: The latest.

this is pretty severe.

I'm pretty sure you can do this with any baycode server now, went on a few and tested it, same menu pops up and my macros carry over.
Edit: Went over to Goon, the macros don't carry over there. Maybe they know a fix.

You can also hit the 'edit skin' button to directly modify skin.dmf locally. The reason this does not work on goon is due to huge differences to their hotkey systems, I believe.

Please report this on the byond forums. It shouldn't be happening with control_freak = 1

Although, tbh, I think we should allow creation of macros and just start removing bad verbs. I'd much prefer that to what MrPerson is proposing.

I'm tired at the moment, so I probably didn't explain it good enough, but eh, at least they can get the gist.

i noticed the macros stop working for me when a round ands and auto-reconnect happens, that might help with tracking it down.

I've updated to the latest version of Byond, and I'm still able to do this.

By following the steps listed in the OP?

Yes.
Makingthemacro
The .ping and adminwho commands were on macros and worked as well.

This is still an issue, though at this point I really doubt this is fixable at all.
