This PR is intended to make working in cargo more interesting, and more like a real warehouse experience. IE, the place is an aladdin's cave full of wierd knicknaks and useful oddifies.
-Makes a lot of unsuitable events excluded from faking. Some of them could do with reworking to make them function, like the infestation and prison breaks, but for now i just had to exclude them
-Adds an In-character/descriptive name, used for the announcement apologising for the mistake
-Fixes an issue where using debug Trigger Event verb would fill the events list with empty severe events and cause runtime errors
Random antag now spawns specific antag templates only: namely, ones which will not have major trouble being integrated into the round and rolling with it. Ones with a long start-up time, ala cult, have been excluded.
Also added a game mode blacklist to the event_meta datum. If the current game mode's name is in that blacklist, the event will be disabled and will no longer be run that round.
bugfix: "Space bears can now control their movement in space."
rscadd: "Bears are now stronger in space or low pressure, weaker in pressurised environments"
soundadd: "Rawr!"
rscadd: "Added more bears!"
rscadd: "Added a new severe event."
New PR to fix merge issues
Porting an event from tg. Scrubbers get clogged and eject some chemical smoke with potentially fun effeects
I looked through chemsmoke code while doing this, and found it wanting, so i improved it. Added a duration input, adjusted all uses of chemsmoke in the code. Generally gave them all higher durations, chemsmoke grenades were a disappointing poot
Adds a new mundane event, false alarm.
It picks a random moderate or severe event and fakes its announcement without actually running the event.
Three minutes later, CC sends another announcement apologising for the false alarm
Also added an event var allowing events to exclude themselves from being picked for faking
tweak: "Adjusted event many weights. Made meteors and vendor breakdowns less common, ion storms more common."
tweak: "Slightly reduced overall frequency of random events."
rscadd: "Reworked the infestation event!! Can now spawn in a wider variety of locations, and spawn a wider variety of creatures."
rscadd: "Spiders spawned by the infestation event will now grow up, but much slower."
rscadd: "Reduced length of meteor storm a little. Total meteors not changed."
This was done with three design goals in mind:
1. Making 'interesting' events more common, especially those that have a decent chance to affect the dynamic of a round, as well as making annoying/boring things a bit less common.
2. Giving people stuff to do when a department is overstaffed. All the combat things are more weighted towards security staff, and destructive things more weighted towards engineering. Many other events have had staff requirements removed or reduced
3. Evening out event selections, preventing certain things (like blobs and comms blackout) from being too common, and other things (like spiders, drones and meteors) from being so rare. Severe events especially should have a much more varied selection.
Fixed hatch overlay not being cut when a firedoor opens
Fixed firedoor hatches drawing ontop of office/blast shutters when both are on the same tile
Drones can now bump open windoors
added attack logs for meteor impacts
slightly increased volume of meteor shield impact sound
fixed meteor event end announcements
log_and_message_admins() (which sure needs a shorter name) now uses key_name_admin() instead of just key_name().
Replaces calls to admin_log_and_message_admins() which did this with log_and_message_admins() instead.
Reduces the announcement message delay for spiders from 800-900 seconds to 180-300 seconds.
Number of spiders now based on severity, with a moderate level event spawning as many spiders as before.
The random virus event will now only infect mobs on station and which currently have a player that has been active in the last 5 minutes.
Placeholder until a more indepth discussion about what to do about the random event is concluded.
Only two more this time:
Random space dust attack.
Random gravity failure.
Moves space vines from moderate to major events, due to its now more dangerous nature.
Removes now irrelevant alien/ninja customized event handlers.
Adds Excel sheet for aiding in event probability calculations.
