Messages received by your old body will now reach your VR body (does not affect Skrell Srom).
Exosuit pilots can now interact with elevator panels without having to get out.
Robotics and RnD can now create remote controlled mechs. The control centre is in the protolathe, while the exosuit upgrade is in the circuit imprinter.
Mechs can no longer be dismantled if it has a pilot in it.
Dismantling a mech now takes a while.
The mounted machine guns had a safety, which started as set to 1. This caused it being unable to function when mounted. This is fixed by removing the safety from the weapon class used.
Posibrains are now in the ghost spawner menu. Activating them is now a one-and-done deal, as they remain open in the ghost spawner until someone disables it or someone spawns in.
Syndicate Cyborgs have been added to the ghost spawner menu, and will remain in a boot-up state until someone spawns into it.
Syndicate Cyborg eye overlays have been fixed.
Wizard Familiars have been added to the ghost spawner menu, same as above.
Mining Drones have been added to the ghost spawner menu, one swipe is all you need, until someone joins in as them.
The agent ID card now makes you invisible to the AI when electronic warfare is enabled.
The price of the agent ID card have been upped to 4, from 3.
Agent IDs now have a charge, which lasts for a few minutes. When the charge runs out, electronic warfare is disabled.
Credits to Loaf (the man of many names) from Nebula for teaching me this technique.
Wizard spellbooks can now be stored in the belt slot.
Necromancers now get 10 spell points, up from 8.
Smoke now properly layers over mobs, obscuring them.
Wizard Apprentices and Skeletons are now in the Ghost Spawner menu. The former can be enabled by buying an Apprentice Pebble artifact, a new wizard item which acts as a portable spawnpoint. The latter by casting Raise Dead on a corpse.
Apprentices are now given additional spells at the bottom of their spellbook, depending on which type of wizard their master is."
Bought artifacts now appear in your hands, if you have any free.
The Return to Master spell has received numerous bugfixes and should now work as expected, most of the time.
Spawned borers now get added to the Ghostspawner menu, allowing players to inhabit them even if they didn't catch the original request.
Borers have gained the ability to survey their host's health, allowing them to better choose when to administer certain chemicals.
Borers now regenerate chemicals even if their host is unconscious.
Awakening psionics now take 15 seconds instead of 10, and the host now gets a message about feeling something bad coming on, allowing them to make a dash to safety and or seclusion.
Skrell returning from Srom no longer eject controlling borers to the lobby by replacing their ckey into the aether.
Skrell no longer spontaneously die when entering Srom on a map that doesn't have a Srom location.
Adds full variants of stacks of items in the spawn menu.
Adds local narrate, which allows you to narrate to all mobs in a 7 tile radius.
Allows admins to reset stationbounds via right click or Special Verbs menu.
Adds a random type golem rune to the spawn menu, if an admin wants to adminbus a random golem into a round.
Ports Baystation12/Baystation12#19992 and Baystation12/Baystation12#27266.
Added a personal shield device to the traitor tools uplink.
Added a radiant shielding aura spell to Battlemage and Cleric.
Added an exosuit shield drone to the mechfab.
This works, but I'm not entirely happy with the sprites. The personal shield has no on-mob shimmer, it uses a mindbatterer grenade as an icon sprite. The wizard radiant spell uses a pretty big and janky sprite as an on-mob, and the exosuit's shield sprite doesn't follow the dir the mech faces, but that one I can maybe fix on my own. If anyone knows about that last one, lemme know, Bay had code for it that we do not.
#8005 just revived.
