PDAs are dead, long live PDAs. All trace of old PDAs has been scoured from the codebase, and in its place are modular computer PDAs that are feature-equivalent. Essentially every PDA function except the Syndicate detonation feature and Notepad has been ported over, and battery life for handheld computers has been boosted alongside the addition of charging cables to make things easier.
The downloader and the file manager no longer come default on any device.
A client enrollment app comes now with every console
The user has to select weather the device is a private or company device and select a software preset if its a work console
Work devices are locked down to a specific set of programs
Private devices get the downloader and the file manager to install programs as usual.
Threw out the backup of the old-old camera monitor.
Made software presets a generic thing that are not dependant on the form factor of a device.
Ported holowarrants from bay
Ported wall mounted consoles from bay
Ported various computer fixes from bay
Vending machines spawn now with the holowarrant "client"
Mapping changes:
CE and HoS dont get a modular computer with command preset (they did not have that before bay merge, so why should they now)
Added a modular computer with command preset to the head of staff briefing room
Replaced the camera monitoring console in the Engine Control room with a modular computer
Replaced the cam monitor in the CE´s office with a wall mounted console
Switched places of the bar sink and console
Replaced the consoles with obj/item consoles
Mapped in the ERT and Merc Console (Merc Shuttle, ERT Area)
Fixed the "border" at the heisters base
Also waiting for CCIA on a design for the warrants.
But that can be changed with a follow up pull
- Modular computers now support multitasking.
- New hardware type added. Basic CPUs may be obtained when purchasing a laptop or tablet, Photonic CPUs can be printed at research at imprinter. This hardware piece determines how many programs can be on background.
- Programs can now have an icon that is rendered in main UI's header (along with the power icons, etc.) when the program is on background. As an example, these icons have been added to NTNRC client (Dark icon when no messages have been received, blinking when new message is waiting), Alarm monitor (Blinking red when an alarm is active, green otherwise) and downloader program (Animated arrow when downloading, stationary when finished.)
- Adds missing crew monitor icon to tablets. Fixes#11937
