The downloader program will no longer show things you already have installed. Clears up some needless clutter, since theres never any reason to download something twice - you can make local copies on the hard drive.
Software lock now works. It didn't before. For the record i still dislike this feature but i fixed it anyway.
Added some information/error messages for when the download list is empty, to explain why
The footer with the version number is now fixed to the bottom of the window instead of floating up
Optimisation: Auto update is now disabled on the software selection menu and enabled when you're downloading something. Saves on needless processing.
Version number incremented
Added different run and download access levels
Added the possibility to check for one access, one in a list, all in a list
Tweaked the access levels required to download software.
Generally speaking, only departmental heads can now download departmental software
Locked down the software of the preset consoles. (No downloading games on them)
Fixed being unable to eject portable storage devices
Locked down work consoles dont accept portable storage devices
Added a software backup crate to secure storage
Redefine span() to be a macro. Because we don't need it to be a proc ever again.
Rebuild the .all_changelog.yml file to have Bayport stuff at the bottom (onto which we'll add our own shit from this cycle).
Rebuilt the .html file for changelogs to correspond to the above change.
Modified download programs to actually use seconds.
A minor project focusing on Modular computers and exosuits. Changelog is small, since most of this is changes to unreleased content
In brief:
Adds an exosuit monitor program
Fixes many visual issues with the downloader program
Tweaks Exosuit killswitch and EMP mechanics
- 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
- Adds codersprites for tablet programs that are currently required.
- Adds computer icons to some programs that missed them.
- Temporarily removes separate keyboard icon states for consoles. They may be reimplemented in the future in a bit better way.
- Rebalanced sizes of programs a bit
- File manager is no longer downloadable, as it is part of each hard drive's ROM.
- Fixed runtime error when vending a laptop
- Adjusted some code segments as per Techhead's suggestions on github
- Adds changelog.
- Adds revelation virus, a program that destroys the hard drive on execution. It also has chance of destroying the computer's power supply and/or battery.
- (Added): Simple UI for virus that allows user to rename the program to look like non-malicious one. The virus must be armed first via this UI. Once armed, it will trigger on next execution (even if copied/sent to other system)
- Adds extended description to programs, that contains basic information on what the program is doing.
- Adds simple NTNet P2P transfer client, that allows users to send files via NTNet.
- This client can act either as actual client (downloading files), or as a server, providing one file at time.
- This may (not guaranteed) be expanded in future, to allow sharing of multiple files at once, possibly even having some sort of dedicated server architecture
- Transfer speed is calculated as lower value of connection speed of both devices (weakest link in the chain)
- Server may be protected using rudimentary password that, if set, must be entered to download the file.
- As usual, fixes various issues through the code, but likely creates more as this is still WIP project.
- Most importantly, NTNet software downloader program now exists and more or less works.
- Your device's connectivity has effect on how quickly you can download. Right now, things with wired connection (consoles) download at 0,5GQ/s, mobile devices on station where signal is good at 0,1GQ/s and mobile devices off station where signal is bad are limited to 0,025GQ/s. This is all controlled by three defines.
