* Alright, so I'm optimizing parallax code so I can justify making it do a
bit more work
To that end, lets make the checks it does each process event based.
There's two. One is for a difference in view, which is an easy fix since
I added a view setter like a year back now.
The second is something planets do when you change your z level.
This gets more complicated, because we're "owned" by a client.
So the only real pattern we can use to hook into the client's mob's
movement is something like connect_loc_behalf.
So, I've made connect_mob_behalf. Fuck you.
This saves a proc call and some redundant logic
* Fixes random parallax stuttering
Ok so this is kinda a weird one but hear me out.
Parallax has this concept of "direction" that some areas use, mostly
the shuttle transit ones. Set when you move into a new area.
So of course it has a setter. If you pass it a direction that it doesn't
already have, it'll start up the movement animation, and disable normal
parallax for a bit to give it some time to get going.
This var is typically set to 0.
The problem is we were setting /area/space's direction to null in
shuttle movement code, because of a forgotten proc arg.
Null is of course different then 0, so this would trigger a halt in
parallax processing.
This causes a lot of strange stutters in parallax, mostly when you're
moving between nearspace and space. It looks really bad, and I'm a bit
suprised none noticed.
I've fixed it, and added a default arg to the setter to prevent this
class of issue in future. Things look a good bit nicer this way
* Adds animation back to parallax
Ok so like, I know this was removed and "none could tell" and whatever,
and in fairness this animation method is a bit crummy.
What we really want to do is eliminate "halts" and "jumps" in the
parallax moveemnt. So it should be smooth.
As it is on live now, this just isn't what happens, you get jumping
between offsets. Looks frankly, horrible. Especially on the station.
Just what I've done won't be enough however, because what we need to do
is match our parallax scroll speed with our current glide speed. I need
to figure out how to do this well, and I have a feeling it will involve
some system of managing glide sources.
Anyway for now the animation looks really nice for ghosts with default
(high) settings, since they share the same delay.
I've done some refactoring to how old animation code worked pre (4b04f9012d). Two major
changes tho.
First, instead of doing all the animate checks each time we loop over a
layer, we only do the layer dependant ones. This saves a good bit of
time.
Second, we animate movement on absolute layers too. They're staying in
the same position, but they still move on the screen, so we do the same
gental leaning. This has a very nice visual effect.
Oh and I cleaned up some of the code slightly.
Removes the old sniper rifle zoom, replaces it with a scope component. the scope activates on right click and lets your camera follow your mouse.
https://streamable.com/2c63u4 (due to byond rounding some shots were weirdly missed in that video, its fixed now)
Also adds sniper marksman ammo to the nukie uplink. It does slightly less damage, but it is hitscan and has one guaranteed ricochet shot, so you can shoot a wall and it could still hit someone.
makes dropkey deactivate device modules
fixes speed potion being fucky
fixes doubled up balloon alerts
makes some cell code better i think
makes the gps module open the gps tgui for you, instead of putting a gps in your hand
the loader suit can now hold mailbags
Reworks the mining modsuit.
The suit is no longer cold-proof (this can be mitigated by using module space for thermal regulators)
The suit fits less modules than standard suits, but cant burn in lava.
In suit storage it can carry ore bags, resonators and kinetic crushers.
It features a storage, gps, ore bag, drill, clamp and by default comes with a plasma core, being recharged with plasma ore rather than by power cell.
Features two new modules:
Ash Accretion, it gathers dust from basalt (or snow) you walk on to create a layer of ash around the suit, acting as armor and a speed up that quickly drains when you walk on other terrain.
Sphere Transform, turns you into a fast moving ball that can travel past lava, you cannot use your hands when in this form, but you can launch aoe mining bombs to attack or mine
About The Pull Request
I have received exemption from the freeze by Oranges.
This PR was originally done for Skyrat-tg, as a bounty. Oranges took interest and Skyrat people approved taking it upstream so I did. (original PR Skyrat-SS13/Skyrat-tg#9912 )
Features:
This PR adds "field of view" mechanics, which by default don't do anything.
Once you pick up and wear a gas mask you'll notice a cone behind you.
That cone will hide all mobs, projectiles and projectile effects.
HOWEVER... hidden things in the cone (or for people who are blind or nearsighted) will play a visual effect.
The fov cone shadow density can be adjusted
Technicalities:
Originally a component, but by Watermelon's advice I have made this a datumized behaviour instead. (semi-component) This way it is faster, less memory use etc. Once again a component
People have native fov, which can be enabled by a config, by default it's off. (or by an admin verb)
People have fov traits, which add the fov impairings to you, gas masks do that now. All clothes have a support for possibly applying them.
Moves all things that should be hidden onto a new plane which is just above GAME_PLANE, that was we can efficiently filter them out of clients views.
Being dead or extending your eye view (xenobio console) will disable the FOV mask.
This PR was brought to you by Skyrat paying me aswell as rotational mathematics
Why It's Good For The Game
Oranges approves so it's good.
Changelog

This fixes Emitters, beam_rifle, and more.
The great rendering refactor (#61286) changed how rendering worked.
Entities need to have a usable plane to render to. This isn't normally
a problem, as sensible defaults are set very low in the type path.
However, tracer effects use an appearance override, which was missing
the plane definition.
This adds the plane to the appearance used when apply_vars is called,
by copying it from the holding entity.
bring code up to latest standards, move many procs to named files inside _HELPERS
no idea where to put some of these procs, help is appreciated
made more files to contain some unique code, deleted unsorted.dm, we can rest now
## About The Pull Request
stop forgetting to include mapload, if you don't include it then every single subtype past it by default doesn't include it
for example, `obj/item` didn't include mapload so every single item by default didn't fill in mapload

## Regex used:
procs without args, not even regex
`/Initialize()`
procs with args
`\/Initialize\((?!mapload)((.)*\w)?`
cleanup of things i didn't want to mapload:
`\/datum\/(.)*\/Initialize\(mapload`
## About The Pull Request
Changes up some layer and plane defines for no particular reason lol
## Why It's Good For The Game
Planes actually override layers, and layers control ordering within planes. A lot of the usage of plane and layer was wholly unnecessary. This refactor helps future maintainability while also being needed staging for _future features._
This pull request adds a map loader as well as new maps to CTF. When a game starts a CTF map will be selected at random and will be playable by ghosts.
As well as this new functionality CTF now fully supports 4 teams. A green and yellow team have been added complete with both standard and instagib gear.
At current five maps are planned:
Classic - the original map we all know and love
Four Side - A four team CTF map where all teams compete over one flag
Downtown - Terrestrial city themed map
Limbo - Wizard themed map featuring portals and uses KOTH rather than CTF
Cruiser - Space themed map utilizing the powerup system
Random maps are selected on game load
Support for four teams added
Why It's Good For The Game
CTF has been more or less the same on the surface since its creation. This PR allows for some much needed map variety which will increase replay value. CTF is far more regularly played then mafia due to its fast rounds and common use during round end delays and I believe that it deserves a boost in content.

We have countless examples in the codebase with this style gone wrong, and defines and such being on hideously different levels of indentation. Fixing this to keep the alignment involves tainting the blames of code your PR doesn't need to be touching at all. And ultimately, it's hideous.
There are some files that this sed makes uglier. I can fix these when they are pointed out, but I believe this is ultimately for the greater good of readability. I'm more concerned with if any strings relied on this.

Adds a visual indicator for when you trigger someone's Bad Touch quirk.
Players who have this quirk may not have the time to convey that they do
when hugged, as the hugger may be off-screen by the time the quirk holder
has finished typing a say or emote. This provides a clear indicator that
the quirk holder gets a negative moodlet from hugs.

The food cart no longer... Does whatever garbage it did before. What, like, store condiments? Terrible. Now you drag it around and set it up, creating a tent with a griddle, smartfridge, and a table. You can pack up anytime. Breaking parts of the tent will pack up the machine and subsequently break it, so careful!
Why It's Good For The Game
The food cart has been an entirely outdated, out classed, completely dead machine to use. We just can do a lot better in 2020. Now it once again has a nice unique function and lets chefs do a new gimmick of being a travelling seller of food. Employs the "steal the janicart" meta from the janitor in the new and equally infuriating "steal the entire damn tent lmao"

/obj/effect/ex_act had several different re-definitions to make it a noop. The original definition would randomly delete it, which is bad news when a lot of /obj/effects are just that--effects, that shouldn't be blown up.
The ones that actually do want to be blown up (like decals) already have their own implementations. The one in place was never ran, and nobody had problems with it.
Replaces like 70-80% of 0 and such, as a side effect cleaned up a bunch of returns
Edit: Most left out ones are in mecha which should be done in mecha refactor already
Oh my look how clean it is

About The Pull Request
It adds a shrink ray that has 5 shots, can be recharged, has unique (coder)sprites, and has a cool sound
Shoot a thing with the shrink ray to make it small. Anything can be shrunk except floors
Shrunken things grow back after a couple seconds, might adjust this
Small things will not block vision and can be walked over (this includes walls)
Small people won't fit into their clothes and will drop all their stuff (or rather, their stuff will drop off of them). They also can't move very fast, and take 2x damage while shrunk.
Preview video here

Anything can be shrunken, and shrunken things can be walked over/seen past (for example, you can shrink a wall and then walk around it). If a human is shrunk, they will drop all of their belongings, move slower, and take 2x damage.

/cl
I intend to add it as a thing abductors can purchase but am putting it up now for code review and if anybody has any other ideas on good thematically fitting places to put it.
The old Laser Sprite was pretty old, literally just a 4 color line.
Decided that it should probably look more in line with a 2,000,000
Watt beam of pure destruction.
As an added bonus, the laser now fires on the correct tile in front of
the BSA now, in addition to having a built in splashwave around where
it's fired.
Idea and instructions by @Razharas, many thanks.
This PR only implements the framework required to catalog as well as play the sounds. Their to_chat text, and icons (if any) are not included, are to be pushed in a separate PR.
This PR does not remove the old playsound_local system, it is kept for the sake of not necessitating a direct changeover of every single playsound in the code, which will surely cause a lot of merge conflicts. It does however, replace bike horns' and toy nukes' means of playback to this datum, purely as proof of concept.
Playsound_local may remain in the code to support playback of admin-uploaded sounds that do not have an inherent datum. Playsound will likely be renamed to something else in the next PR to reflect its new, more universal function. We will see.
New process for adding sounds:
Create a new datum/outputs subtype.
If you wish, write down some supporting text; this gives further meaning to the sound.
Add multiple sounds to the sounds list, and weight them as you wish. (New)
Add a sound icon if you wish, it defaults to a generic sound circle anyways though.
playsound(/datum/outputs/new_subtype, receiver), and it will deliver, icon, sound, and text to the receiver.
Maintaining implication is that from now on playsound should only be processing datum/outputs
This pr intends to gut to_chats that are added alongside playsounds in the code.
This pr eliminates the need to initialize sounds in a list so that you can weight them or have the game play them randomly from the list.
Sound Rings
Currently, only mobs with the audiolocation var may view them. Sound icons have an alpha that depends on the volume of the sound, louder sounds create a more opaque image
Sound rings are completely modular and may be changed to any image.
In addition to renaming playsound to reflect its new function. I intend to give blind people sound icons at the cost of their small view, but that is for another PR.
cl Basilman
refactor: refactored how sounds are stored and played

experimental: Hitscanning tracers now have lighting effects
experimental: Projectile pathing has been changed - instead of moving to a turf 32 pixels forward using byond's built in step_towards() proc, it now increments 2 pixel 16 times (subject to change). While this will increase the processing overhead, this will more or less eliminate cases of "projectiles clipping past corners in some angles but not others".
It is my belief that science weaponry should exist but not be "just better energy guns/whatever". Right now, portal guns are actually pretty powerful, as their random teleport can space people (especially if they have bohs), and actually does burn damage, albeit very little. I want to make scilathe weapons into useful utility things that can be weaponized if you use it right and in somewhat niche scenarios.
This PR will make wormhole projectors into more utility than combat.
