Misc:
+Fixes unreported issue with initializing lighting on a specific zlevel
+Fixes two similar issues with moveElement and moveRange. Where fromIndex or toIndex could be adjusted incorrectly in certain conditions. Potentially causing bad-sorts, or out of bound errors.
+Rewrites listclearnulls(list/L) to no longer iterate through L.len elements for every null in the list (plus 1). i.e. went from L.len*(number_of_nulls+1) list-element reads (best-case), to L.len list-element reads (worst-case)
+New proc/getElementByVar(list/L, varname, value) which finds the first datum in a list, with a variable named varname, which equals value. You can also feed it atoms instead of lists due to the way the in operator functions.
+Fixes an unreported issue with Yota's list2text rewrite. Under certain conditions, the first element would not be converted into a string. Causing type-mismatch runtimes.
+New global map_ready variable. This is not fully implemented yet, but will be used to avoid duplicate calls to initialize() for map objects.
+All turfs now maintain references to all lights currently illuminating them. This will mean higher memory use unfortunately, due to the huge number of turfs. However, it will speed up updateAffectingLights significantly. I've used list husbandry to reduce baseline memory usage, so it shouldn't be any worse than some past atmos modifications memory-wise.
-Removed 'quadratic lighting', can add this back at some point. Sorry.
+modified the way lum() works slightly, to allow turfs to have overridden delta-lumen. i.e. space cannot be illuminated more than its default ambiance. This allowed removal of some iffy special-snowflake lighting areas implemented by somebody else.
+Lighting images in the dmi can now use arbitrary naming schemes. It is reliant on order now. This allows the dmi to be replaced by simply dropping in a new dmi.
-Removed all subtypes of /area/shuttle. Shuttles now create duplicate 'rooms' of /area/shuttle. (More on this later). This will conflict with most maps. Guide on how to fix to follow.
+All verbs/tools relating to world.tick_lag were refactored to use world.fps. However old config text for setting tick_lag will still work (it converts the value to fps for you)
+MC stats improved using smoothing. They now have their own tab so they dont get in the way when you're playing as an admin.
-removed the push_mob_back stuff due to conflicting changes. Sorry Giacom.
_OK, NOW THE ACTUAL INTERESTING STUFF_
Following systems moved over to subsystem datums:
air_master
garbage_manager
lighting_controller
process_mobs (aka Life())
nanomanager
power
sun
pipenets
AFK kick loops
shuttle_controller (aka emergency shuttle/pods), supply_shuttle and other shuttles
voting
bots
radio
diseases
events
jobs
objects
ticker
Subsystems hooks and variables should be commented fairly in-depth. If anything isn't particularly clear, please make an issue.
Many system-specific global variables have been refactored into
All tickers which previously used world.timeofday now use world.time
some subsystems can iterate before round start. this resolves the issue with votes not working pregame
Also removed some mob vars like sdisabilities and merged the usability
with disabilities
Removed need for mutations var, they are not handled in dna
Removed blinded var, now its handled by eye_blind being bigger than zero
Ands lots, lots of other shit in files that used mutations
- Attempts to fix a major screwup in bot movement code that created
artificial lag for the entire Master Controller.
- Fixes floorbots not patrolling or performing certain functions.
- You can now toggle the anchored status on Floorbots manually. They
will still automatically anchor when fixing hull breaches.
Allow me to apologize for taking so long to come up with a fix for this.
I tried several other solutions such as simply removing the sleep(4)
that causes this issue (it results in 'teleportation' movement). Other
times I used spawn() incorrectly, resulting in several race conditions.
And then I tried to give them their own ticker, independent of the MC.
The game lagged and runtimed before it even finished setting up.
Excuses aside, this solution seems to be working so far, but I welcome
any more elegant solutions to fixing this issue.
fixes#5560
Meta/Mini should add empty z.7 at some point after this pull is committed, I would have done so myself but it didn't play nice with mapmerge so I decided against it.
The layout of the accessible z levels in relation to each other are now lain out in a massive preshuffled SPACECUBE. Every Z-level is no more than two screens from every other Z-level, and can be moved through in a predictable order* with a little ingenuity
*Except z.6
See pull for the full details
End-Round report will now also declare some round statistics, including
-Round duration
-Station integrity
-Total population
-Survival Rate
-Evacuation Rate
-Command's Approval Rating (During rev only)
Bugfix:
-Ending the round as a brain will no longer report to the player that they have survived
- The AI can now access both Security and Medical HUDs via a new button
on its UI. The Medical HUD is exactly equal to all others. The AI's
Security HUD cannot detect implants.
- Cyborg HUD modules have been removed in favor of an inbuilt command,
to make it less of a hassle to access them.
- HUD code has been given its own file such that it can be used by any
mob. In addition, HUD users are placed into a list instead of searching
for only humans and checking them for a HUD item. This is to make it
easier to expand.
- Security HUD messages can now be received by any mob using a SecHUD.
-Pressing this button will spawn up to 5 death commandos on centcom with a customizable objective
-Added a shuttle console to the ferry that, rather than moving the shuttle, will send a request to admins instead
-Deathsquaddies get an energy shield
-Deathsquad beret will no longer hide head, face, and hair
Intended for high-population servers
Open security officer positions scale with population, between 5 slots at ~40 players to 12 slots at ~96 players
Default coefficient is 8, but may be modified (or disabled) in the config.
Extra lockers will spawn if there aren't enough lockers.
Thanks @Giacom for the info!
PR announcer is now able to authenticate with Nickserv.
Communications key moved out of config controller.
Even better Regex validation.
Reading now has even more exception handling.
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.
Lets admins set temporary notices that will last until the end of the round.
* All players that join the server will see this notice.
* Anyone can check it using the Adminnotice verb
* Also adds the motd verb that can be used to check the server's message of the day
The intention of this is to make it easier for admins and server hosts to run special events.
