No longer uses animate() when unneeded, because animate() is slow.
Also turns Clamp() into a macro to reduce proccall overhead.
The whitespace changes in atmos are needed because of the way the
preprocessor handles macros.
Thank you MrPerson for helping with this.
This bug isn't reproducable so no, I'm not sure this will fix it. It's still a good idea to do this though.
Best guess as to what happened: A light was deleted pre-round for some reason. The garbage ss del()'d the light before the lighting system's first tick, so a null got into the lighting ss's lights list. This broke the whole system directly from roundstart and caused the thousands of "can't run null.check()" runtime errors from yesterday.
Turfs now have a baseturf var which determines what is "under" every
turf. The default is space.
Actions that previously did changeturf(/turf/space) (like bombs or RCD
deconstruction) now do changeturf(baseturf). Functionally the same for
the station, but allows special turf types that don't break to space
(such as planet tiles).
Right now the asteroid tiles are the only thing with a baseturf other
than space (the baseturf is an asteroid tile).
Baseturf is tracked when new things are built, so building a floor and
then a wall on the asteroid tile, and then bombing that wall will return
it to an asteroid tile, not space.
Allows building on asteroid tiles now that doing so wont randomly make
holes to space. Time for giant mining forts.
I should have done this years ago for away missions.
Also added myself to admins.txt
MC:
No longer tracks a subsystem's cpu usage. This was basically worthless and took up space on the stat panel
Can calculate wait down to a tenth of a decisecond to make it fps/world.ticklag agnostic
Now allows subsystems to have a dynamic wait, that is based on a ratio of how long that subsystem has been taking to process(cost). (This system allows for upper and lower bounds, and an changeable cost delta for each subsystem)
MC can now be told to init a zlevel
All Subsystems:
Stats panel now allows child subsystems to pass it a message to add to its stats entry. All subsystems have been moved over to this system - This should cut down on subsystems having to copy and paste the stats proc in order to add to it
All subsystems now properlly handle being given a zlevel in their init proc
Subsystem changes:
Air:
Added air to the dynamic wait subsystem. upper bound: 50, lower bound: 5, cost delta: 3 times process cost
Air now fires 4 times faster when it can do so without lagging things up
Pipenet has been merged into air
Atmos machinery now processes with process_atmos(), ticked by air, not machinery.
Hotspots (the fire object) are now object pooled
Pipenet:
Deleted, added to air
Machinery:
Moved all atmos calcualtions in all objects's process() to process_atmos().
Lighting:
Added Lighting to the dynamic wait subsystem. upper bound: 20, lower bound: 5, cost delta: 3 times process cost
Ticker:
Fixed ticker not updating the lobby panel when game start delayed
Fixed the game start timer updating rapidly from queued fires when game start delay is removed
Garbage/qdel:
qdel will now limit its process time to 2ds a fire.
qdel can now be given hints as a return to Destroy() as to what should be done with the object.
the options are:
queue: (default) this is the normal behavior.
letmelive: old default to non-null/zero. does nothing with the object
iwillgc: functionally the same as above, mainly to let people working with objects know that the object will not be queued for GC checking
harddel: this will queue the object to be deleted without storing a soft reference, mainly to save locate() processing time.
harddel_now: this will del() the object. To allow for a clean removal of every del() not in qdel
All objects have been updated to the new system, harddel and iwillgc was not added to any new objects.
Fixed some objects not GCing because they didn't properlly clear references in Destory()
Fixed some objects getting qdel'ed preventing other objects from getting GCed because they did not null their reference to that object.
Lighting SS no longer cares about the return of check(); the light datums are responsible for deleting themselves.
Cap on lighting effects from turfs is now 8 because they're static and shouldn't be flashing lights too often. This means starlight actually works now instead of being capped at 1 measly turf.
Lighting related ChangeTurf() code is in the lighting module. Changed it up to be faster on lighting controller init and not leave dangling lights when a turf becomes or stops being opaque or when it turns into space. This diff log is gonna be useless sadly but take my word for it, it all works.
Lighting related Moved() code is also in the lighting module. Opaque objects will now update nearby lights when they move (mechs).
Opaque objects other than the light datum's owner on the same tile as its owner will block the effect of the light. In other words a mech standing on the same square as a light bulb will block all the light of that bulb.
Changed "cheap_hypoteneuse()" with an even cheaper version; actually calculating the hypoteneuse! I can prove it's cheaper if needed.
Removed move_contents_to() because it's unused and trying to use it would cause major bugs with lights and other shit and I have no interest in supporting that, so let's not even tempt people.
