Part one of our nefarious plans to destroy lag forever, and also accomplish some cool shit. This replaces our renderer system with plane masters, this will also be used to turn skyboxes into backdrops and thus totally remove skybox updating lag. Additionally, this will let us manipulate entire planes very easily to do all sorts of zany shit. All credit goes to the original coders, this is some seriously cool stuff. Also fixes some bizarre smoothing behaviour, reduces updateoverlays calls since now not every single structure in the game tries smoothing with nothing. <img width="1349" height="1349" alt="image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/9b7cecd7-3c47-448b-9dd8-9b904640bf82" /> <img width="1349" height="1349" alt="image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/647d75a2-1bff-45ca-ab92-0aea10631afd" /> --------- Co-authored-by: Matt Atlas <liermattia@gmail.com>
Datum Component System (DCS)
Concept
Loosely adapted from /vg/. This is an entity component system for adding behaviours to datums when inheritance doesn't quite cut it. By using signals and events instead of direct inheritance, you can inject behaviours without hacky overloads. It requires a different method of thinking, but is not hard to use correctly. If a behaviour can have application across more than one thing. Make it generic, make it a component. Atom/mob/obj event? Give it a signal, and forward it's arguments with a SendSignal() call. Now every component that want's to can also know about this happening.
See this thread for an introduction to the system as a whole.
