About The Pull Request
Was fairly shocked to find out hiveminds never took tinfoil hat protection in account, so decided to implement the factor in the game mode. Might have overdone it and probably erroneously changed a couple logics while getting rid of some really indented passages that could easily early return.
So what's said on the tin, this is lot more preferable than clunky is_type() checks on headwear anyway.
Also expanded tinfoil protection to hivemind and (non-revenant) telepathy.
Why It's Good For The Game
Let us remember the "purpose" of tinfoil hats.
Changelog
cl
code: Merged tinfoil hat kind of protection into the anti_magic component.
add: Tinfoil hats can also be warped up from excessive dampening of mindray/though control/psicotronic anomalies, or by simply being microwaved in an oven, and become useless.
add: Immortality Talisman and Paranormal Hardsuit helmets now come with tinfoil protection too (minus the paranoia and limited charges).
balance: Rebalanced many hivemind effects to be dampened/delayed by tinfoil shielding. Bruteforced Assimilate Vessel, One mind and Awake Vessel abilities will consume more tinfoil charges compared to others.
balance: Genetics/Slime/Alien Telepathy and Slime Link are now stopped by tinfoil protection.

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
*Adds unique sprites for the staves of door creation and chaos
**Item sprites
**Inhands
**Onbacks
*Fixes #3232 in a way that isn't terrible
*Basically this is the part of 1.5 that should have been done back when it was added
*Please raise wizard rates :3
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).
*Removes zapping oneself by attackselfing a wand, leaving clicking yourself while holding the wand the only way to do it because...
*Removes the warnings for zapping yourself with bad wands. Careful with that wand of death, kids!
*Removed some redundant lines
*Adds logging/sounds to zapping yourself
*Removed the change to wizard_continuous_rounds. It will become it's own PR
*Removed some redundant lines
*Uses the mob/living revive() proc to heal/raise people using the wand/staff of animation
*Span classes the whole update
*Spellbooks no longer vanish after being used, instead used spellbooks now have various bad effects should they be attempted to learned from again (the original reader won't acidentally fall to this, as they will just say "I've already read this"). Leave em out as traps for people or properly dispose of your trash! Or...
*The charge spell can now attempt to recharge one use spellbooks so someone else can learn the spell. This only has a 20% success rate and will destroy the book should it fail (even if the book was actually unused). You can't attempt this on the wizard's spellbook
*The "staff of nothing" (functional) placeholder now uses the generic staff sprites
*Spellbooks can now be placed in bookshelves just like normal books
*The teleport spell won't yank anchored things anymore, but as a consolation it will warp the entire contents of a tile should it be targeted. The code has been tweeked so this shouldn't effect the server too bad even if large numbers of items are warped to unique locations this way
the teleport wand now uses do_teleport
the polymorph wand now uses wabbajack in both instances
You can now click on yourself while holding a wand to cast it on yourself in addition to clicking on the wand itself.
Changed how guns/magic are given out slightly. Previously no antag could get a gun/magic thing (including survivors made by the spell in the case of multicasting) but now antags who aren't the wizard or an apprentice of the wizard also get one.
Fixed a few bugs on accidentally burning charges by click in places tht wouldn't actually fire the wand/staff
Fixes an issue where someone spamming a wand might lose charges without actually firing the bolt
Removes a few missed bugtesting lines
Adds a var (variable_charges) to be disabled for wands with assured max charges for future use
