This PR will lead us towards the Promised Day, for in its wake there shall be much celebration and ecstasy as this world becomes a world suitable for developer hegemony. The first strike is thusly;
All << is converted into to_chat().
changes:
Machinery now uses machinery_process() instead of process(), allowing machines to be put into SSprocessing-style lists in addition to the machinery list.
Automatic power calculations now involve less proc-calls.
changes:
Machines' process() has been separated from auto_use_power().
Lights no longer process() and instead use auto_use_power() for power calculations.
Computers that didn't really need to process() no longer process().
Airlocks now use the scheduler to auto-close instead of process()ing.
Fixed a bug where clicking on an AI Status display to set its status did not work.
Fixes all the snowflake guns unique to our codebase with multiple firemodes so that they now actually behave correctly. Fixes a few bugs relating to computers, and updates modular_computers to use holoscreens.
- Effects can now appear and be spliced in at higher stages than their set stages (e.g. Waiting Syndrome can now occur in any block)
- Gibbingtons changed to not instantly gib infected on activation, instead either dealing massive brute damage or making humanoids' limbs fall off; this avoids three copies of Waiting Syndrome then Gibbingtons going undetected until it instagibs the entire station one after the other.
- New effect: chemical synthesis. Picks one reagent from its list, and keeps infected at 5-7u of that reagent. Infecting others, splicing the gene, etc does not change the reagent, only generating an entirely new chemical synthesis effect does that.
- Admin panel for spawning viruses
- Virus dish examine() now doesn't print 15+ lines to output, instead printing one line and a link to open a window with the rest (and it calls ..() now)
- Lowercased most virology machinery's names
- Renamed/reordered antigens, there are now 16 antigens rather than 11, and they don't use the blood markers' names despite not being affected by blood type at all
- Generating random effects does not rely so much on the GC
Fixed cure machine producing virus blood wrong.
Changes to existing syndromes:
-Cough : now has chance to infect people around mob.
-Telepathy : now should properly give powers to the mob.
New syndromes:
-Topographical Cretinism : confusing directions, much like drunk effect.
-Blackout : short-time blindness
-Removed functions already defined in parent classes.
-Replaced checks in Topic() with parent class ones.
-Removed two unused files (there are duplicates in unused folder anyway)
-Removed commented out lines, mostly pre-antibody curing code.
-Shuffled code around for better readability (like antibody list)
-Moved various devices and items defines to separate file.
