Fixes mutiple rotate operations from breaking the server, map rotation will properly detect rotation operations as well as update operations and abort.
Fixes max pop being treated as minpop
Adds more feedback to admin verbs.
Adds a config option for the map rotation chance.
Ups default rotation chance from 50% of round length to 75% of round length.
Moves the procs around.
Adds two new admin verbs:
Force map rotation.
Change map.
Using the server->reboot option in client side debugging tools will sleep the current proc and call world.Reboot(1).
These cases should immediately reboot with no code to clog it up so that admins with client side debugging tools can restart the world even if its hung. (this being the reason i gave all admins client side debugging tools)
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
This means away missions don't have space transitions
* The setup_map_transition proc is protected from excessive tiles proceeding (the proc is set to the background if too much tiles are processed)
* Added a comment explaining the Space Cube, by Incoming
* Fixes#4903 : "mobs don't maintain momentum on z-level transition"
* Serendipitiously fixes#2614
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.
Makes the announcer better in every aspect (less bugs, less fun, more
merging announcement capability)! Also makes it require *just* .Net 4.0
instead of 4.5.
Adds the option for players to disable the PR announcements.
Adds a C# program that allows you to parse GitHub Pull request opening
notifications sent to an IRC and display them in-game.
Adds authentication to the world/Topic() procs, allowing you to easily
and securely input data into the game (EXPORT DOES NOT REQUIRE IT!)
Moved all main .dmm maps to _maps/map_files
Each main map gets a .dm file in _maps, this is what's ticked, -NOT- the .dmm file.
This allows use of a MAP_NAME define for various purposes, and lays the groundwork for map customization in the future.
Also included a hacky dm.sh script which supports swapping maps.
For example, "./dm.sh tgstation.dme -Mmetastation" would compile with metastation.

Testing has revealed that it reduces the sluggishness of the game, though it will spike from lag when the singularity is loose. Thanks to ChuckTheSheep for suggesting it.
Server owners who want to keep set background enabled can do so by changing the define.
* By converting the unix timestamp of the git log, I was able to get the date of the revision.
* It uses the new unix2date, which figures out the date, since you can't convert unix time to byond time through byond.
There is now a PRELOAD_RSC define in code/_compile_options.dm. Setting it to 0 will allow you to use on-the-fly rsc downloads, or the new remote rsc features.
Normally (PRELOAD_RSC == 1) the game will send you all the resources for the game that existed at compile time, this is the long-delay before joining the game...but it means that the game isn't sluggish later on due to trying to download icons and such. Which is good, but uses a lot of bandwidth.
On-the-fly behaviour (PRELOAD_RSC == 0) is when the game only downloads icons when you see something for the first time...this is often responsible for things being briefly invisible on slow connections.
Remote RSC behaviour (PRELOAD_RSC == 0 and some urls defined in config/external_rsc_urls.txt), is a mixture of the two above behaviours. It allows you to connect without downloading lots of resources immediately. However, once you connect it will select a url from a list of urls which hold zipped up copies of the tgstation.rsc. This allows the load of downloading those large files to be distributed across a few cheap web-servers or free upload sites...whilst the main game-server is freed up for other stuff. Should preloading from a remote url fail, behavior will revert to on-the-fly.
DNA modification uses normally distributed random numbers. Radiation strength dictates the standard deviation of the change in the hex character which is hit (higher output means greater chance for a large change) . Similarly, radiation duration dictates how likely we are to hit the hex-character we clicked on (longer duration means more likely to hit). Irradiation is strength*duration. All balancing is done via multiplier defines so you can rebalance it easily.
DNA blocks and structuring all use defines. Making modification/expansion easier. I'll likely expand this into a datum-based system to allow more interesting features, reduce code further and allow admins to interact with the way dna strings behave.
DNA strings can be spliced together using merge_text().
e.g. string 1: "Hello World"
string 2: "Seeya______"
result: "Seeya World"
This isn't used except for admin-spawnable SE injectors at the moment.
r_hair, g_hair, b_hair, r_facial, g_facial, b_facial, r_eyes, g_eyes, b_eyes were removed and made into 3 short hex-colors.
Skin tones now support colours other than shades of brown. I've had to restrict it heavily until other stuff is done. Skin tones include Albino Caucasian, Oriental, Mediterranean, etc.
Data disks and DNA injectors were reworked to use associative lists so transferring data is just a matter of doing list.Copy()
var/dna is now defined at /mob/living/carbon level. Only monkeys and humans may have dna currently. Support is there for all carbon-based lifeforms to have dna.
DNA modifier console has almost all controls on one screen.
UIs and UEs can be injected separately (appearance and name, respectively)
dna helper procs like ready_dna() and such were changed to make them more versatile. There is now a hardset_dna() proc as an alternative to ready_dna which can initialize dna with properties passed into it or update an existing dna string (useful for cloning and antag spawning)
Every block of SEs are in randomised positions.
Disabled automatic logging of world.log, as it produced undesirable behaviour.
Mr Muggles and God Emperor of Mankind disks removed.
Floor() removed. (it was completely uneccesary, that is what round() is).
Fixed spelling mistakes in modularchangling.dm (thanks tenebrosity)
Tanning removed from beaches (again)
Experimental: monkeys and humans do not have dna until first attempt to read dna (using check_dna_integrity(mob))
This is mainly due to the way everything is hardcoded into New().
