# Summary
This PR is the next update to the persistency subsystem. The goal of
this PR is to provide more framework like functions to allow more types
of content to be made persistent.
Currently only volatile game objects created during a round can be (*in
a [clean](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rZ3ETK7-ZM8) way*) saved and
made persistent. This update attempts to provide methods to make
*everything*¹ persistent.
This introduces persistent generics and history.
## Database
The following things are going to be changed and added in the database
(open in new tab for better visibility, PNG file includes the drawIO
code):

src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/ea53f419-f9aa-4592-af8f-3a8d5edf3177"
/>
**Deviations on database implementation from diagram:**
- Removed unique constraint on history table - Prevented adding multiple
records per round per attribute.
## Framework surface changes
- MC/VV: Moved global object track register to subsystem var space.
- MC/VV: Point of interest: Added history_cache and generic_cache to
subsystem var space.
- MC/VV: Updated subsystem stat entry message, now providing information
on cache sizes of new types.
- Added `singleton/persistent_type` defines (Type, clean-up rules,
finalization hook) and macros allowing new definitions of said types.
- Added cache structures that are also used for returns on public procs
in generics and history persistent types.
- Major new framework features: Persistent history (example: Mining
yield records) and persistent generics (example: Persistent Horizon
overmap position). See documentation for more information.
DrawIO diagram for documentation, includes source in it (open in new
tab):

## Changes
Too many changes to be listed here - Check changelog and actual changes.
## Warning
There are certain use/test cases that *cannot* be tested locally due to
missing preexisting data in the database. This should only affect new
data structures (new persistent types), not existing data.
¹ _Large scale persistent mapping is excluded for this version._

Repaths obj/machinery to obj/structure/machinery. **Note for
reviewers:** the only meaningful changed code exists within
**code/game/objects/structures.dm** and
**code/game/objects/structures/_machinery.dm**, largely concerning
damage procs. With the exception of moving airlock defines to their own
file, ALL OTHER CHANGES ARE STRICTLY PATH CHANGES.
Objects, _categorically_, are largely divided between those you can hold
in your hand/inventory and those you can't. Machinery objects are
already subtypes of Structures behaviorally, this PR just makes their
pathing reflect that, and allows for future work (tool actions, more
health/destruction functionality) to be developed without unnecessary
code duplication.
I have tested this PR by loading up the Horizon and dismantling various
machines and structures with tools, shooting guns of various types
throughout the ship, and detonating a bunch of explosions throughout the
ship.

A pull request commissioned by the Synthetic Lore Team to
comprehensively rework synthetics (read: IPCs) and how they work in
Aurora. The objective is to make IPCs as unique as possible from humans,
upgrading the robotic feel and atmosphere, while also preserving a good
sense of balance in-game.
Key features:
- A comprehensive expansion of synthetic organs, all of which now
fulfill a purpose: hydraulics, cooling units, power systems, actuators,
diagnostics units.
- Customizable organs with benefits and drawbacks, such as with cooling
units and power systems.
- Unique ways to repair the organs and more involved steps.
- Unique damage mechanics - every organ has wiring and electronics which
affect its functioning, and they are defended by plating which provides
natural armour.
- Improved and immersive diagnostics.
- Unique features, benefits, and drawbacks for every IPC frame.
- A rework of the positronic brain, which can be either destroyed or
shut down, alongside effects caused by low integrity.
- A rework of how EMPs affect IPC organs.
- Non-binary damage states for each organ.
To-do:
- [x] Finish the unique features for each frame.
- [x] Look into if mechanical synthskin is possible.
- [x] Power system.
- [x] Posibrain mechanics.
- [ ] Passive cooling expansion.
- [x] EMP mechanics.
- [x] Repair mechanics.
- [x] Mob weight mechanics.
- [ ] Gurney for heavy mobs.
- [x] New augments.
- [ ] IPC tag scanning and flashing.

Little more tuneup of area metadata, and also replaces area.name in
several locations with dynamic area display names (for example:
announcement that something was beamed aboard a thruster will once more
indicate whether it was the port or starboard thruster).
Turned a ton of unmanaged globals into managed globals.
Refactored some UT output.
Removed some unused things, including vars.
Added a test to ensure people don't keep adding new unmanaged vars.
Refactored the abstract meta propriety into defines.
It's now more easy to spot/see abstract types thanks to the macro that
defines them.
Added a check on initialization of atoms to avoid spawning abstract
types.
Made the spawn_atom proc check for abstractness.
Made the spawn_atom proc use tgui_list for types list shorter than 1000
elements, which enables to search in them. It's too laggy on larger
lists so above 1000 it uses the builtin input.
Made the spawn_atom use a list subtraction instead of a double list,
it's lighter on memory and processing.

- EMPs no longer deal permanent damage. Instead, they deal a temporary kind of damage called surge damage, that lasts for 10 seconds at maximum.
- Surge damage makes mechanical or assisted limbs count as broken and nonfunctional.
- Surge damage has special interactions with the mechanical heart and eyes.
- EMP damage is no longer randomized. It is now much more consistent.
- IPC battery is no longer represented as nutrition. Instead, the microbattery organ contains a super-capacity cell that is used for all their actions. This is represented with a new HUD icon.
- Hardsuits can now be charged in robot chargers if you are wearing them.
- Ion bolts now have a hit sound.
- Removed the ion rifle lethal mode.
- The ion rifle now has four shots.
Made an attempt to implement something based on this suggestion - Brainmed UI and accessibility
New VueUI for bodyscanner.
IPCs display their cell charge for the suit sensors program.
Handheld medical scanners have some colour coding now.
tweak: "Security's base nonlethal equipment - tasers and rubbers - is now a bit better."
bugfix: "Fixed teargas doing practically nothing."
bugfix: "Fixed a lot of stuff not applying pain damage. Ow."
bugfix: "Fixed undefined values on the CMC."
bugfix: "Fixed dionae not regenerating damage."
Ports (and adjusts) Baystation12/Baystation12#12521 et al. Essentially brings our visualnet code up to the standard of three years ago, rather than five.
Side effects of merging may include but are not limited to loss of AI vision, helmet camera failure, garbage collection implosion, infinite turf loops, and unintended layer shenanigans.
High-level changes:
Overall, visualnet/chunk procs have been renamed and refactored to be clear as to their function.
Fix some layering issues related to magic numbers, these have been set to constants.
Visualnets now track source movement rather than overriding individual mob/obj procs.
Adds obfuscation underlay to complicate memory fudging to remove camera static.
Cameras now only add themselves to the cameranet if they're on open (non-restricted) networks.
Helmet cameras now use cameras themselves rather than network defines.
Adds a sorted object list insertion helper.
The Camera MIU (presently unused) should now function properly.
Unused cultnet / cult mask deleted because refactoring that would likely kill the few brain cells I have left
Modifies the Handheld Health Analyzer's readouts a little.
Firstly, it displays if someone is malnourished or dehydrated.
Secondly, it changes the numerical damage values you get if you scan someone into words, this prevents doctors from screaming "OH YOU HAVE 0.3 TOXINS", which doesn't really make sense in any term of lore standards. I guess. Lmao.
Thirdly, it removes the weird "Anatomical damage detected" lines, because those are literally just repeats of the damage values you're already getting.
Converts all reagent containers to use Initialize, fixes the hand-chew cool down so it's no longer for everyone, and moves the suit sensor Z-level to the global.dm right above the station name so anyone else using the code can't miss it.
Closes#3363Closes#3361Closes#3362
Improves camera EMP handling. Now uses a var and processing to determine when the EMP should end, preventing inconsistent states when a camera is EMPd multiple times.
Reduces the process and bandwidth need for cameras.
* There is now a common camera repository, responsible for setting up cameras once for every invalidation.
* Camera consoles now only updates when the camera cache is invalidated, not every second.
* The console now only presents one network at a time, and only sends the data necessary to view that network (as opposed to sending the data for all cameras).
