This PR touches nearly every aspect of the antagonist. For readability's sake, not every change is going to be listed in this pull request. For the full list of changes please refer to the design doc: https://hackmd.io/@BiST8PJVRjiwVPY86U3bLQ/B11HyChz1g. Code by Me, @Xander3359 and @Arturlang TGUI by @Arturlang Sprites by OrcaCora and GregorDM Writing bits by @necromanceranne ### Core changes - Cross-pathing has been removed. Main knowledge spells are now exclusive to their path (for the most part). - For every main knowledge unlocked (save for the robes and the blade upgrade), Heretics can choose one option from a draft of 3 random side knowledges (this is a free point). - Heretics can now purchase side knowledges from a new tab, the "Knowledge Shop". Side-knowledges have been divided by tier (Stealth, Defense, Summons, Combat and Main). Tiers are unlocked as you progress toward your main path. - Heretics now gain the grasp and mark upgrade immediately, but their main knowledge choices cost twice as much (except for the first spell, the robes and the blade upgrade). - Path specific robes have been introduced! They come with their own set of quirks. - Each Path has received a passive ability. This passive is upgraded when you first create your robes, and again when you complete the Ritual of Knowledge. - Paths have been rebalanced as a result of the removal of cross-path progression. Cosmic and Moon paths have received soft reworks. - Upon unlocking the path 2nd level or reaching a total of 8 points worth of knowledge, Heretics will lose the ability to blade break (and the limit on blades all together). - Ascension now automatically calls the shuttle with no possibility of a recall. - Late join Heretic has been removed. ### New UI <img width="750" height="635" alt="moon path ui" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/184ef783-5c9c-48a1-a2f7-4807ca93e990" /> ### Knowledge shop <img width="787" height="669" alt="Knowledge shop" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/3dc89b84-8c70-4d47-b612-54396e3ea6e7" /> ### Quality of life //General balance changes - Heretics will now gain X-ray vision for a few seconds when nearby an eldritch essence (this effect has a cooldown). - Ritual of knowledge now requires 1 uncommon item instead of 2. You may now use a stunprod instead of a baton to complete the ritual. Beartraps have been removed from the list of possible reagents. - The maximum number of possible sacrifices required to ascend has been reduced from 6 to 5 while the minimum has been upped to 4. - Codex Cicatrix no longer requires a special pen to be made. ### Passive abilities - Heretics now start with a passive ability. You can find what it does on the path info tab after a path has been selected, and what they gain when upgraded. - Crafting your first set of Eldritch robes will bump your passive to level 2. - Unlocking the 2nd level will subsequently unlock your "Ritual Of Knowledge" - Completing the ritual of knowledge or ascending will net you the final level. ### Path Specific Robes - Armorer's Ritual is no longer a side knowledge. Each path will have their own unique version of the ritual. This is placed after the 2nd spell in the tree. - Robes can no longer be destroyed by fire and acid, grant t4 flash protection (Moth Heretics stay winning) and protection against basic syringes, to bring them on par with other antagonist's armor sets. - The recipe to craft the robes is now a set of armor/vest, a mask (any mask will do now, not just gas masks), plus the unique reagent required for the blades (Plasma for Cosmic, Trash For Rust, match for Ash and so on) - Wearing the robes as a non-heretic may yield some unfortunate side-effects. ### Moon Path Rework Moon path rework. Moon Heretics gain immunity to brain traumas and slowly regenerate brain health. Equipping the moon amulette channels its effects through the moon blade; making it unblockable and cause sanity damage instead of brute. Ring leader's Rise now summons an army of harmless clones that explode when attacked; the explosion briefly stuns non-heretics and cause sanity and brain damage to them. Moon blade can also now be used when pacified and Moon spells are no longer blocked by regular anti magic, only mind magic protection. **Cosmic Path Rework** Cosmic path has received the biggest batch of changes alongside Moon. The path has been dead last in ascension and pickrate (less than 5%) for almost 2 years. It did gain some popularity over the last few months, reaching the highest ascension rate in the game (12%) while mantaining a relatively low pickrate. Cosmic sits in a weird spot, where pretty much every knowledge surrounding the path is either mediocre or, in the case of the ascension, dysfunctional. Yet it has maintained a smidge of relevancy due to how quickly Cosmic heretics can capture and sacrifice targets thanks to Star Touch. As a result, the best course of action would be to rebalance the entirety of the kit; granting the heretic more tools to manipulate space and dictate the flow of a fight, while lessening their ability to end a confrontation by instantly sleeping their opponents. lastly The Star Gazer is now ghost controlled ; And they shoot lazers! <img width="636" height="451" alt="gazer gag 3" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/601d6881-c042-4e42-8ce6-ac90cd27848b" /> ## Why It's Good For The Game ### Ok...but why do we want this? Again, if you want my full reasoning, please check my doc https://hackmd.io/@BiST8PJVRjiwVPY86U3bLQ/B11HyChz1g. To keep it short and concise; Heretic is too complex and unintuitive for its own good. Too impenetrable for new players and too abusable for experienced players. This can be chalked up to a lot of poor design decisions. But ultimately, what I believe being the biggest contributor to the current status of Heretic is the ability to move into different paths, also known as "Cross-Pathing". ### Cross Pathing my beloathed. Cross-pathing, while cool in theory, overcomplicates the antagonist and overloads them with power. Players dealing with the heretic are incapable of working out what a given heretic can do. This also leads to late game heretics having 3 rows Worth of action buttons and virtually no weakness. Over the last year, I've often received the understandable but also kind of unfair accusations of making Heretic too powerful without a clear aim or purpose. My goal with the paths I've reworked over the last year (Rust,Void and Blade) wasn't necessarily to just make them stronger (although that was also part of the goal, as they were paths that were underperforming), but for them to have more interactions with the sandbox and to better live up to the fantasy presented to the player. If an harbringer of frost gets countered by a cup of coffee, we probably messed something up. Unfortunately, the current incarnation of Heretic doesn't really allow for surgical balance changes to specific paths. Every time a knowledge gets buffed, we make every path that can easily tap onto that knowledge stronger by default. It doesn't take a genius to understand why this system is ultimately unsustainable. ### Blade Breaking I feel that after a heretic has reached the near peak of their power, they no longer need the ability to instantly escape any encounter. Check my doc for my full reasoning. ## Less versatile, more specialized paths. By removing cross-pathing, we remove a huge maintainability burden from the antagonist. Paths can now be designed around clearer strengths and weaknesses. They become easier to balance and less of an headache to understand for everyone. It also means we can give paths some needed quality of life quirks without having to worry how such a change might have a knock-on effect for other paths. Ash heretics can finally let loose without dying by their own flames. Cosmic Heretic can go to space without having to carry a modsuit. Moon Heretic can use their abilities without fear of one random trauma ruining their day, and so on. ### What a horrible night to have a curse...., wait how do I curse people again? As of right now the heretic tree has quite a hefty amount of trinkets that pretty much never see use. Partly because the tree itself is a nightmare to navigate. And partly because why would anyone set up an elaborate plan or scheme when they can unleash 2 rows of spell in the span of bunch of seconds. Heretics mostly gravitate towards powers that push them towards greater, more potent combat strength. If it doesn't contribute to killing people quicker, it isn't worth doing for most. And given the opportunity cost associated for taking those powers, they will remain that way so long as there are better choices to be poached. The new draft system encourages Heretics to play more with the tools at their disposal. If you want to go for a specific combo from the side path options, you may now do so by tapping into the knowledge shop. Yes, the shop does include a few knowledges from the other paths. But these are limited to 1 per path, are very expensive and can only be unlocked very late into the shift. ## Drip Of the Mansus The iconic heretic robe is actually sequestered to a side path that is most easily access by only two paths at a time. Since heretic paths are being made to be much more specialized, the most obvious way in which this can be showcased is through an easily identifiable outfit. By using the robes, we can both telegraph WHAT heretic you are looking at, and just how much power they've accumulated and when it is reasonable to take the kid gloves off and treat them as a genuine threat. If a heretic is in their robes, that heretic is now a significantly more prominent danger to the station. It also serves as a useful means for gating some of the more powerful effects of a heretic's path behind the robes, AND enable options for disarming them of that power should they be captured without making it something endemic to their mob. A major problem with heretics is a lack of certainty as to how powerful they have become. A heretics robes is one of the milestones to help players dealing with heretics identify that. ### Will this be 100% fair and balanced? This is a massive overhaul to a pretty complex and bloated antagonist. I've done my best to show the changes to several maintainers and other members of the community for their feedback. But at some point we'll have to see how this behave in the environment to get a feel if something is over or undertuned. (that's my way of saying, yes this is likely gonna require a testmerge or two). What I will say is that I'm not trying to change the core identity of Heretic. Heretics should have the upperhand in single encounters early on, be able to joust a small group of players after they unlock their final spell, and end the round when they ascend. They're a progression antagonist. They should retain their payoff as well as pose a danger as they grow stronger. But if more players feel like they are more reliably able to play the antagonist in more varied and interesting ways, rather than the antagonist largely existing as a measuring stick for 'robustness' due to its elitist design philosophy, then the rework has been a success. There should be something for everyone in the antagonist, as is true for all of our antagonist roles.	2025-10-15 22:34:51 +00:00
MrMelbertandGitHub	d838bff525	Adds some throwing datum nullchecks (#91720) ... ## About The Pull Request A few places seem to call `hitby` or `throw_impact` without a throwing datum to mimic the effect of colliding with something, which is cringe, but I guess we should support it. So we need to nullcheck for `get_thrower`, else it runtimes and cancels the whole proc. ## Changelog 🆑 Melbert fix: Glass shards from colliding with vendors or glass table hurt you again. /🆑	2025-06-20 11:25:16 -06:00
John WillardandGitHub	853c9196b6	Removes 'thrownby' var on items (#90877) ... ## About The Pull Request Fully removes thrownby as a var on items, and is now instead handled by throwingdatums' ``get_thrower()`` proc Also replaces the early return for throwing things at yourself (it now only prevents the call for check_block and therefore hit reaction stuff), since the only way to throw things at yourself is with boomerangs, which currently only works because it doesn't pass you as the thrower for boomerang's return Speaking of, boomerangs now see the thrower as thrower on returns Before (Boomerangs don't pass you as the thrower, so it shows you as being hit by nothing):  After (Boomerangs pass you and you can affect yourself, so it sees you hitting yourself & it still batons you):  This is gonna be used for https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/pull/90689 as well. ## Why It's Good For The Game Better logging for boomeranged items, removes a deprecated var and better consistency for thrown items leaving better readability. ## Changelog 🆑 admin: People throwing boomeranged items and hitting themselves now logs it as them hitting themselves (rather than being hit by the air). /🆑	2025-04-30 10:29:29 +01:00
GhomandGitHub	10c2b7364e	The fishening v3: Fishing lures. (#86007) ... ## About The Pull Request Over half of the line changes are merely from splitting the fish_types.dm into several files since it was over 1k lines already. One of the small issues with fishing right now is RNG. You want to get some specific fish, and you go through all the micromanaging with hooks, reels and baits only for the random number god to say "nope", and that's only going to get worse the more fish are in the game. However, I've a solution: (unconsumable/reusable) fishing lures, each of which attracts different fish based on different conditions. The only caveat is that they require to be spun at set intervals (usually 1 to 3 seconds, depending on the lure, with a second-long window). Worry not, there're visual cues in the form of a green/red light hovering the fishing float, so you won't get screwed up by the server slowing down or whatever. The whole box of lures (12 so far) can be from cargo for the fair price of 450 credits. I've also added 5 new fish: monkfish, plaice, pike, another punnier variant of the pike, perch and squid. The latter is quite special because of the ink production trait, which lets players use it to blind others at a close range and when butchered, it yields an ink sac, which can be processed into a can of squid ink (one less item exclusive to the produce console), or thrown at people in a sort-of-similar fashion of banana cream pies (except it's ink). <details> <summary>Images</summary> Fishing lures (forgot to take my cursor off the veggie one before the screenshot):  The five new fish:  </details> <details> <summary>A table of fish catchable wth each lure (excluding holodeck)</summary>  </details> A few more things in the CL, baitfish are a thing now. ## Why It's Good For The Game There should be ways to contrast some of the RNG fishing has. After all, it's only going to get more random the more fish are in the game. Furthermore, I find it disappointing that a lot of food stuff is exclusive to the ingredients console and there're no other ways to get it. ## Changelog 🆑 add: Added fishing lures to the game. They don't get used up like baits and let you catch specific kinds of fish, though they need to be spun every few seconds. The whole set can be ordered from cargo for 450 credits. balance: The magnet hook now removes dud chances. add: Added five new fish types: perch, two types of pike, monkfish, plaice and squid. Squids have a fairly special ink production trait, which lets you use them (unless dead) to ink people face at close range, and can be butchered for an ink sac, which can either be processed into canned squid ink, or thrown at someone. fix: Refactored throwing a little. Some items (specifically components/elements) won't be triggered when caught. no more plates shattering despite being caught for example. add: Goldfish, lavaloops, needlefish and armorfish can now be used as baits. /🆑	2024-09-06 19:50:28 -04:00

Ben10OmintrixandGitHub	90cc66953e	adds a new fish to lava and plasma rivers (#83146) ... ## About The Pull Request this pr adds a new fish to lavaland and icebox, the lavaloop! i noticed neither has any exclusive fish so im trying to add one of my own. u can find this fish by using reinforced rods on lava or plasmarivers. this fish is also lobstrosity's favorite delicacy as you will now often see AI controlled lobstrosities fishing for it in lava and then eating it.  because of its body's curvature and razor sharp spikes, this fish can also be used as a make-shift boomerang weapon against mining mobs, although it comes with some new mechanics. u can increase the damage it does to mobs by winding up ur throw. when the bar reaches purple, this indicates maximum damage. however, if it goes over the purple, it will react violently and explode your arm off, so you have to time it just right to get the best damage possible. On icebox, instead of dealing raw damage, fish will freeze mobs depending on how long you charged ur throw. charging it for too long will cause the fish to freeze you instead https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/assets/138636438/c8ac3696-3705-45b0-bc43-c5b81d75cb1b while its nowhere near as effective as using PKA's or crushers, it can be a useful tool for hermits and ashwalkers. ## Why It's Good For The Game having lobstrosities fish and hunt for it makes lavaland feel more like an ecosystem with a food chain. also i think tossing fish at eldritch horrors is a funny way to fight them ## Changelog 🆑 add: adds a new fish to lava and plasma rivers, the lava loop /🆑	2024-05-22 23:11:45 -06:00

san7890andGitHub	ccef887efe	Lints Against Unmanaged Local Defines (#74333) ... # MAINTAINER - USE THE BUTTON THAT SAYS "MERGE MASTER" THEN SET THE PR TO AUTO-MERGE! IT'S MUCH EASIER FOR ME TO FIX THINGS BEFORE THEY SKEW RATHER THAN AFTER THE FACT. ## About The Pull Request Hey there, This took a while to do, but here's the gist: Python file now regexes every file in `/code` except for those that have some valid reason to be tacking on more global defines. Some of those reasons are simply just that I don't have the time right now (doing what you see in this PR took a few hours) to refactor and parse what should belong and what should be thrown out. For the time being though, this PR will at least _halt_ people making the mistake of not `#undef`ing any files they `#define` "locally", or within the scope of a file. Most people forget to do this and this leads to a lot of mess later on due to how many variables can be unmanaged on the global level. I've made this mistake, you've made this mistake, it's a common thing. Let's automatically check for it so it can be fixed no-stress. Scenarios this PR corrects: * Forgetting to undef a define but undeffing others. * Not undeffing any defines in your file. * Earmarking a define as a "file local" define, but not defining it. * Having a define be a "file local" define, but having it be used elsewhere. * Having a "local" define not even be in the file that it only shows up in. * Having a completely unused define* (* I kept some of these because they seemed important... Others were junked.) ## Why It's Good For The Game If you wanna use it across multiple files, no reason to not make it a global define (maybe there's a few reasons but let's assume that this is the 95% case). Let me know if you don't like how I re-arranged some of the defines and how you'd rather see it be implemented, and I'd be happy to do that. This was mostly just "eh does it need it or not" sorta stuff. I used a pretty cool way to detect if we should use the standardized GitHub "error" output, you can see the results of that here https://github.com/san7890/bruhstation/actions/runs/4549766579/jobs/8022186846#step:7:792 ## Changelog Nothing that really concerns players. (I fixed up all this stuff using vscode, no regexes beyond what you see in the python script. sorry downstreams)	2023-03-29 10:17:03 -07:00
4 people	4d6a8bc537	515 Compatibility (#71161) ... Makes the code compatible with 515.1594+ Few simple changes and one very painful one. Let's start with the easy: * puts call behind `LIBCALL` define, so call_ext is properly used in 515 * Adds `NAMEOF_STATIC(_,X)` macro for nameof in static definitions since src is now invalid there. * Fixes tgui and devserver. From 515 onward the tmp3333{procid} cache directory is not appened to base path in browser controls so we don't check for it in base js and put the dev server dummy window file in actual directory not the byond root. * Renames the few things that had /final/ in typepath to ultimate since final is a new keyword And the very painful change: `.proc/whatever` format is no longer valid, so we're replacing it with new nameof() function. All this wrapped in three new macros. `PROC_REF(X)`,`TYPE_PROC_REF(TYPE,X)`,`GLOBAL_PROC_REF(X)`. Global is not actually necessary but if we get nameof that does not allow globals it would be nice validation. This is pretty unwieldy but there's no real alternative. If you notice anything weird in the commits let me know because majority was done with regex replace. @tgstation/commit-access Since the .proc/stuff is pretty big change.
