Fills in some strange holes in cyborg functionality, fixing several borgs that were not quite fit at doing their jobs:
-Adds rolling pin and knife to service borgs; should allow them to cook a full range of foods. I've been getting regular nagging about this one from the community
-Adds the ability to pick up assemblies for engineering/research borgs, allowing them to construct some complex devices, notably bots and motionsensing cameras.
-Several items added to research borg: Dropper and reagent scanner, for chemistry, pen for renaming bots and writing research notes, and a plant bag for working in xenoflora
-Added altclick functionality for setting transfer rates on beakers. Essential for chemistry and cooking, since borgs can't use rightclick verbs on gripped items.
The RPED now functions properly in more cases, including the destructive analyzer. It can also now intake beakers for rapid exchange on machines that use them.
changes:
tweak: "Surgeon and Crisis cyborg modules renamed to Medical and Rescue, Janitor cyborg module renamed to Custodial."
tweak: "Tweaked equipment of cyborg modules."
rscadd: "Grippers can now grab valid items inside any unsecure container"
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
No clue why holder_damage() is even a thing: all it does is call ex_act on the holder **before** the explosion is set off. The explosion code itself manages that quite neatly, by calling ex_act on the holder's container, and then cascading from there.
This also solves the runtime error with chemical explosion grenades!
tweak: "Tweaked surgeon cyborg modules: Added chemistry gripper, removed fire extinguisher, and added soporific to their hypospray."
tweak: "Removed chemistry gripper from crisis borg."
maptweak: "The chemistry and botany fridges are now see-through, so you can more easily chat with people on the other side."
tweak: "Cost of cyborg renaming module vastly decreased"
tweak: "Renamed medical's Chemical Closet, to Chemistry Equipment Closet. Nobody ever stores chemicals in an unrefridgerated closet."
rscadd: "Added two boxes of empty spraybottles to the chemistry equipment closet."
An extension based on live testing yesterday.
Reduced the volume of mouse squeaks a bit, fixed Ian's automated feeding, and addded a couple new food related features to him
I made his scan delay drop when food is around, but scale up to a slower-than normal value if left alone, and added checking for held food. As well as tweaking some food-related vars on corgis
changes:
rscadd: "Added hunger and feeding system for simple animals, this includes cats, dogs, mice, lizards, chickens, cows, etc"
rscadd: "Animals can now actually consume food instead of nibbling them eternally."
rscadd: "Animals can now be hand-fed by using food on them."
rscadd: "Animals will move more slowly when starving. Examining an animal will show if its hungry."
Basically added a very simple metabolising system for animals, and fixed up various eating/feeding functions. They only metabolise food, any other reagents are just removed and ignored for now, since most chemicals were designed for carbon mobs and often aren't valid
- bugfix: "Fixed dizziness effects on alcohol, psilocybin, and cryptobiolin taking a long to start up and sometimes never starting for low doses"
- tweak: "Sip size from alcohol bottles is now the same as for glasses, which is half what it was"
- tweak: "Rebalanced all alcoholic drinks with more believable alcohol values, and adjusted alcohol metabolism. Generally drinks are stronger but metabolise more slowly, pace yourself!"
- rscadd: "Different species now have varying susceptibility to alcohol. Tajarans get drunk slightly faster, skrell are twice as fast as humans, unathi can drink more, and vaurca get drunk very slowly, but alcohol poisons them"
- bugfix: "Dousing people in alcohol and setting them on fire, now only works with spirits and liqeurs stronger than 40% ABV, and the heat of the resulting fire is based on the strength"
Vaurca hivemind language added.
Vaurca appropriate name generator added.
Tied Vaurca language to their neural socket organ.
Added a method for non-Vaurca to intercept the Vaurca hivenet so long as they construct the correct item.
Sprites for Vaurca organs.
Neutered all Vaurca.
Cutting open a Vaurca for surgery now requires heavier equipment.
Injecting a Vaurca with a syringe now will take time.
Adds various Vaurca cosmetic items available via loadout.
Adds a few new burst-fire weapons exploiting the burstfire fix - obtainable via research or adminbus.
Ports the ability to stick heads on spears from Paradise-code.
Added an error message when trying to bite someone before the cooldown expires.
Removed spoken Vaurca language.
Heavily nerfed K'ois' properties.
Halved the nutrition value of nutriment, returning it to old-code state.
Nerfed the damage dealt by bite, while reducing the cooldown.
Fixed burstfire weapons spamming attack messages when fired, allowing for more automatic weapons.
Fixed Vaurca player ability to select coloured eyes.
Fixed icons getting stuck onscreen when emptying a plantbag into a
biogenerator or grinder
Increased the biogenerator's capacity to be able to hold an entire plant
bag. because it's a giant stationary machine and the small capacity was
nonsensical
Centralises vomiting code to remove duplication and standardise effects.
Makes vomiting empty your stomach a bit (30u, the capacity of a drink
glass)
Adds Ipecac, an emetic to cause vomiting
* Fixed various instances of toxin being named phoron
These changes intended to reduce confusion, by fixing a few instances of
phoron being referred to as 'toxin', which i believe is a legacy
holdover from some bygone time.
*The biggest and most important change here, is that now when a mob
breathes a gas that's toxic to them, that gas is what's put into their
bloodstream, instead of the generic 'toxin'. This is so that blood tests
can actually be functional to find out what happened to the patient,
instead of only telling that the blood contained 'toxin'
*The toxin strength of phoron has been lowered to 4, so as not to make
people die any faster from phoron poisoning. This strength value only
affects it being injected into the blood, which is never done, or it
being inhaled.
*All references to 'Toxin' in Air Alarm interfaces have been changed to
phoron, they have always meant phoron only.
*In the core cooling computer, the abbreviation of phoron has been
changed from Tx to Ph
* Fixing Borg Beakers
*Crisis and Research borgs now have a Chemistry Gripper instead of a
beaker. The gripper can hold beakers, bottles, pillbottles, pills, hand
labellers, and phoron crystals
* Fixed Unstable Mutagen chance
This fixes the mutation chance of unstable mutagen, to behave as the
author intended.
It also adds a little RP message to give some feedback
* Nutrition Rearranging, Skrell and Unathi diets
*Rearranged nutrition code a little - Added a Digest proc and put the
three stat changing lines in there (blood, nutrition, healing) to
standardise it. and reduce code duplication
*Added blood_factor and regen_factor variables to nutriment, to easily
set how much bloodrestore or healing an inherited food will do. This
reduces numeric literals in code
*protein now has a blood factor of 12 instead of 6
*Unathi now cannot digest nutriment, it will do nothing.
*Added seafood protein as a descendant of protein.
*Skrell can safely eat seafood protein (By Senpai Jackboot's request)
*Space Carp, and all recipes made with carp fillets, now contain seafood
protein instead of animal protein, and thus are safe for skrell to eat.
*Skrell are now immune to carpotoxin
* Altered Carpotoxin immunity
After feedback from senpai jackboot, carpotoxin is taken away from
skrell, and given to unathi instead.
*Sterilizine will now reduce the germ level of all wounds on the mob on
contact, proportional to the quantity sprayed
*Spraybottles will now display the "<Person> sprays <otherperson> with
the <spraybottle>" message when spraying on any mob
The recipe called for 'classicmartini', rather than 'martini' which is
the correct ID of the drink named Classic Martini.
Changed it to require the proper ID
Implements frenzy mechanics.
Frenzy is usually triggered by chaplain actions, or by being low on blood. It gives you the hulk gene and augments your vision, effectively turning you into a relatively powerful hunter.
To het out of it, you need to consume more blood.
