Makes ship combat significantly more destructive (and a bit deadlier), especially with non-explosive projectiles. **Additions:** - A shell that penetrates a solid (dense) structure will cause spalling. This spall does 2-30 damage, depending on range and has a high embed chance. These embedded chunks are large enough to be ripped out by hand. (But you probably shouldn't). The pilot's suit has 30 ballistic armor, so a prepared bridge crew can survive a lot of spall. - Adds a gun that shoots any ship weapon that admins can spawn. Useful for testing, or for adminbus where they don't want to have to spawn a whole overmap ship. - Made several structures destructible, vending machines, computer frames, grilles (these were just bugged) and watertanks (and their children). These structures could just block infinite shots and were common enough to serve as effective armor for the horizon. These now spawn shrapnel (of their material if it's set), in addition to sheets of steel when destroyed. - Added support for negative maim chance. This allows chosen projectiles to be prevented from decapitating. No more accidentally gibbing the bridge crew's heads. (Unless they get hit with something really really big). **Balance:** - All non-explosive anti ship rounds got significant buffs. Typically 2-3x Anti-Material numbers. - Armour piercing anti-ship rounds got massively increased penetration stats. Typically 4-8 from 1-2. - Doors now get destroyed in less hits, if they are hit by anti-material projectiles. Hits to destroy -= Antimaterial / 2 - Francisca frag shells now shoot less fragments but deal more damage. 394 projectiles for every shot was a bit laggy, now it's only 280. **Shields:** Shields now take more power. 13-14 megawatts for a 10 strength shield. Just inside the ship's generation capacity with both the INDRA and Supermatter running. Instead of deleting any projectile they are hit by, shields now have different failure modes. - Firstly, a piercing projectile has it's penetration reduced by the shield strength. Eg A shot that would go through 10 walls, only penetrates 4 after going through a 6 strength shield. - Secondly, a projectile has it's damage multiplied by 1 - shield strength / 10, then has shield strength subtracted from it's damage. Eg. A damage 100 projectile, hitting a 5 strength shield, has it's damaged reduced to 50, (100 * 0.5), then to 45. (50-5) - Thirdly, an explosive projectile (that does not penetrate per the first step) does not explode, but instead deals it's full damage to the shield. Hits to the shield now also damage the field itself, not just the shield tile. As such, a very big hit on the shield can bring the whole thing down, requiring an engineer to reset it. Shields can now be upgraded with research components. Additionally, shield generators can now support more than one capacitor. The roundstart capacitor on the Horizon is only good enough to support a 6 strength shield. The upgrades increase efficiency, strength loss over time and charge speed. **Overmap Targetting** Previously, shells would spawn within 20 tiles of their target and aim directly forwards. This was bugged for shots with burst, which would instead all aim inwards and mostly miss. This is the reason the Grauwolf (in addition to the explosion bug below) and Fransisca felt so useless, only one of every shell in a burst would hit. Shots now spawn at the map edge, based on the orientation of the projectile and ship. Diagonals are now accounted for. Shots are then aimed directly at the target selected on the console, with 3 degrees of dispersion. **Bugfixes:** - Fixes lots of explosions that didn't pass a turf to the explosions subsystem. This caused the explosion not to happen if the thing hit got qdeled before the subsystem could get the turf to spawn the explosion on. - Embedded shrapnel no longer gets the initial projectile name, this prevents it getting named shrapnelshrapnel. - Fixes a bunch of projectile piercing bugs, mostly with grilles and windows. Shots now go past window frames without hitting them. - Fixes shields not having a click delay when attacked. --------- Signed-off-by: FenodyreeAv <fenodyree.av@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Matt Atlas <mattiathebest2000@hotmail.it>
