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.
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.
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.
-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.
Adds full variants of stacks of items in the spawn menu.
Adds local narrate, which allows you to narrate to all mobs in a 7 tile radius.
Allows admins to reset stationbounds via right click or Special Verbs menu.
Adds a random type golem rune to the spawn menu, if an admin wants to adminbus a random golem into a round.
Tweaked a hell of a lot of silicon code to make synthetics better.
Synths with scrambled codes that prevent them from being on robotics computers will now appear on Merc camera networks.
Both variants of the engineering borg can now deploy the malf borging machine.
Medical borgs no longer get polyacid sprays, instead getting Wulumunusha CMO Hyposprays, which cause muteness.
You must now be on help intent to use items like crowbars and screwdrivers on borgs. Otherwise you hit them with it.
The unknown transport signature can now bring something more interesting on-station.
Fixed the golem ghostspawner being enabled at all times and producing an error message.
Turns the z-level restriction procs into macros
Changes z-level restrictions to use the macros
Use contact_levels for announcements (instead of player_levels)
Restricts the teleporter to station_levels instead of player_levels
Restricts AI tracking to station_levels instead of player_levels
Mechs only get tracking beacons if they are on station_levels (instead of player_levels)
Construction Drones gib if they enter a station level
Mining Drones gib if they leave the station levels
Removes the mining equipment vendor from the scrapheap
Changed the spawning mechanics of hivebots and expanded their roster with three new types, Bomber, Guardian and Harvester.
Tweaked the slime infestation event to be a bit more colorful and spawn a couple more slimes than currently.
Made it so infestation events no longer trigger outside the station at shuttle docks,, inside xenobiology cells, substations, at centcomm or outside etc.
Fixed the prison break event from not working correctly with virology, added a chance for it to happen at the bridge.
Fixed some announcements missing their custom titles. Particularly those used by random events. Tweaked their font and size.
The evil will finally be defeated.
This takes security borgs out of the game entirely. They bring pretty much nothing to the table, in terms of either roleplay or positive influence to the station.
Also, combat and syndicate modules now have cuffs.
Replaced the hivebot sprites (Thanks to Kyres1) as suggested in this thread. https://forums.aurorastation.org/topic/11610-hivebotspace-bear-resprite/
Hivebot beacons now spawn in as one of three different variants, their only difference right now is the type of defensive weaponry they use. (Rapid firing taser, Radioactive/toxic beam or an incendiary beam)
Hivebot beacons keep track of their spawned bots, halting further spawns if the number of existing bots becomes that of the max allowed.
Added a red variant of the hivebot sprite, to easily differentiate between the melee and ranged variants
Hivebots are now affected by emps.
The timer now works properly, the hivebots will all not spawn at once.
New: Added a snoozing var, that if set to 1 will not allow the beacon to spawn bots until it has spotted an enemy. Will possibly be used in future mapping stuff related to dungeons and the like.
The balancing is something I'm torn on and will likely tinker with further in the future, pending feedback.
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().
Adds a helper proc for money transfers between two accounts.
Cleans up the EFTPOS and cargo delivery code to use said helper proc.
Changes SSEconomy to use indexed lists for accounts and look up the accounts by accessing it via the index.
This PR makes it so that random lethal viruses can only occur if there is a virologist to cure them. This PR also makes it so the viruses themselfs don't have completely random effects, but effects that make sense together by adding a new system.
Okay, this update is kinda big. Summary:
- Trimmed unused keys in Exodus telecomms
- Adds script that will run mapmerge2 on Travis to check branch for unused keys or key overflow, etc.
- Fixes matching indentation style in tag-matcher and converts it to use Python 3.6
- Converts mapmerge2 to be used by Python 3.4 and above. Instead of 3.6
- Removes Windows 1252 characters from Communication-blackout.dm that were not able to be seen in UTF-8 format.
Note: the last commit will fail because currently main level is broken

Overview
Makes it so that the infestation overhaul is better coded and works better with any station. Instead of picking from a set of 8 areas (2 which don't exist) it picks from any of the station areas without players currently in them.
It also removes some of the more dumber spawns (yithians who exist in the sea, and diyaabs which I don't fucking know.), and replaces them with even dumber spawns such as BLUESPACE BEARS and HIVEBOTS.
Details
Spawns are based on event severity. A minor severity spawns mice and lizards. A moderate one spawns space bats and baby slimes. A major one spawns bluespace bears and hivebots. The chosen spawns can be any area on the station, however some places are limited. The limitation is based on area as well as if there are any players currently present in the area. Don't want bluespace bears to teleport on people.

Converts the news network into a subsystem
Loads news from a database at the start of the round
No longer ties the PDAs to the tcoms system to access the news (which was broken anyway)
Removes the trivial news event
Adds the already existing virology / xenobiology containment events to the rotation
PROPERLY allows unathi to wear boxing gloves.
PROPERLY and completely removed the buckle resist cooldown by fixing code oversights.
Removes duplicate definition of ethanol in the scrubber alert reagent table.
Fixes Xenoarch floating light and clean tiles outside the airlock.
Overview
Now that when scrubbers hit you, you will breathe in the reagents along with digesting and touching them. Since breathing in is 50% more effective than digesting, this nerfs scrubber reagent potency by reducing the amount of chemicals each smokecloud has.
Also added the following reagents to reagent scrubber RNG:
paint, luminol, fuel, blood, sterilizine, ipecac
* Repaths eyes, observers, dview, and new_players to /mob/abstract subtypes.
* Adds /mob/abstract, a base type for 'abstract' mobs that aren't meant to be directly affected by the game world.
