Improved Icarus combat drone code across the board, added a non-malfunctioning variant.
The Icarus now sends combat drones to substantial space wildlife migrations.
Added an Icarus drone target painter to some admin roles. It is an orbital drop device that will warp two Icarus drones at the targetted location.
Added examine texts to malfunctioning combat drones that tells you what they're doing.
Ported the clickcatcher from tg/bay. You can now click black spots to turn. Isn't that handy, especially with vision cones.
Reworked fullscreen overlays into an easier and better system, courtesy of PsiOmegaDelta.
Similiarly, added fadeout animations to all pain overlays, plus unconsciousness.
Fixed the vampire frenzy overlay never showing.
Unconsciousness is now FULL darkness.
Flashing mobs is now an inbuilt proc.
changes:
rscadd: "Ported a new chat system, Goonchat, that allows for cool things like changing font style, size, spacing, highlighting up to 5 strings in the chat, and DARK MODE."
rscadd: "Repeated chat messages can now get compacted. You can disable this in goonchat settings."
rscadd: "You can change icon style to any font on your system."
tweak: "The game window has been altered a bit to adjust for this."
rscdel: "Removed skin style prefs as they are no longer used."
As a continuation of #9389
As a bonus, any drugs that mentioned their IRL counterpart in their description now describe their predecessor as ancient, and the new ones as modern. The biggest difference here is just the Antihistamine which was given a full new name. They're similar enough that they'll be recognized (most of them) but different enough for us to call our own and not care what the real medicines are/do since these are our sci-fantasy versions just inspired by them.
The RnD Console UI has been overhauled.
RnD levels are now a gradual progress instead of just leveling up, not much has changed, but deconstructed items now give more * Data disks now tell you what they contain.
The red scanning goggles now let you see examined items' tech levels.
RnD consoles should now open on the main menu instead of the research menu.
Ejected items from the RnD console and destructive analyzer now go into your hands if you're adjacent.
Converts reagents to use typepaths instead of IDs.
Centralises reagent spawning in a lot of places to use reagents_to_add instead of a variety of custom methods or initialise overrides.
Added a lowpop gamemode called 'Burglars', featuring a new type of antagonist, a mix between a heister and a traitor. Neutered for lowpop fun.
Added a mixed gamemode, 'Conflict', which is heisters and burglars.
-Almost all aspects of virology and it's related machinery and objects have been purged from the code and map.
-Most of disease code has been purged. Some pieces of it remain as holdovers because they would require extensive rewrite of defines and codes for things like nanite robot transformation and appendicitis (that frankly isn't necessary)
-The outbreak event has been purged, as has the virology malicious code event variant.
-The Virology department has been remapped into the Abandoned Sector.
