Works pretty well. If it can't GC something, it'll just del() it and be done.
Speed is amazing, holy shit.
New procs you should be aware of:
qdel(atom/movable) - sets up an object for garbage collection. Call this rather than del(atom/movable).
atom/movable/Destroy() - called right before the object is GC'd, so it still has a loc. Also called if the object is del()'d.
new controller - garbage.dm has all the details on this. Basically it nulls all references on GC'd objects and force del() them if necessary.
Generally speaking, objects should use Destroy() for behavior prior to deletion rather than Del(). You should also always call the parent so the object gets the right gc_destroyed var set.
ISSUES:
Tries to GC mobs atm. This actually works for new players, not so much for humans/monkies/simple_animals/anything. I'm guessing it needs to clear out their mind and HUD and maybe other things.
Gibbing is really bugged. It works, but the overlays just sit there for awhile and ugh. I'm very tempted just to del() mob/living and mob/camera and call it a day.
qdel() equipment doesn't unequip the item.
Pipes don't generally GC correctly. Debugging suggests they get referenced in many pipenets and that isn't cleared properly. However some do work fine. Need assistance here.
Bots don't GC, probably in the radio controller.
Lots of other shit doesn't GC but it's hard to find them because of the pipe spam.
I think I'm calling Destroy() twice by accident.
*TABLEPASS was already totally obsolete.
FPRINT was used, but it was on virtually everything anyway.
Removes those flags from every instance where they were used. Also assigned and removed other flags where it made sense.
If it is desired, I can revive the flag as NOFPRINT, which would retain the original functionality, though inverted. That way it would be be used only where it was intentional (holodeck items could use this for example).
Fixed the failsafe misreporting how long the MC has been dead.
Lighting initialization no longer 'interrupts' the master_controller setup().
Added updated powernet debugging tools. They're in my WIP folder. They are sexy c: It draws the powernet onto the map so you can see what's going on during debugging.
Added tachyon-doppler arrays. They're gonna be something for scientists to measure their bombs with rather than praying for the figures. Nothing spectacular.
Commented out switches, they aren't used and I've been fixing/testing powernets all day. Sorry. If you need them back just PM me and I'll fix them.
Known issues: the merging procs behave silly at intersections. I really tried to fix it but I think I'll make more progress just working on some powernet improvements.

-Redid icons to be more optimized at compile by setting icon = 'icons/folder/icon.dmi' instead of just icon = 'icon.dmi', meaning that Dream Maker doesn't have to search through every single file for every single .dmi. This shouldn't lead to any errors because of how I went about it, plus the fact that Dream Maker would have freaked out if I screwed something up. Also moved around 2 icons that weren't sorted well.

Added a power switch (/obj/structure/powerswitch), which is used to split or connect two cables.
The way it works is simple. It connects the powernets by adding cable on the floor it's on and removing it when it's turned off.
In-file description:
//This is a power switch. When turned on it looks at the cables around the tile that it's on and notes which cables are trying to connect to it.
//After it knows this it creates the number of cables from the center to each of the cables attempting to conenct. These cables cannot be removed
//with wirecutters. When the switch is turned off it removes all the cables on the tile it's on.
//The switch uses a 5s delay to prevent powernet change spamming.
