* Adds a "Camera Failure" event that disables a few cameras.
* Makes tracking take time, increasing with distance from the core.
* Makes camera alerts only happen when a camera is reactivated.
* Makes it possible to bludgeon cameras.
Additionally,
-Create virus re-added to secrets menu, as it had options to specify a specific virus to create
-Blob added to One-Click-Antag with the option to set the strength of the blob (1=Weak, 2= Strong, 3=Full)
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.
Field generators, that are active, will now shock you; they did before but it was because of the containment field near it.
Changed the type path of the field generator and containment field:
/obj/machinery/field_generator -> /obj/machinery/field/generator
/obj/machinery/containment_field -> /obj/machinery/field/containment
Changed the map to have the new type paths.
The containment field will now shock you when it is created.
The containment field layer is a little above objects, so objects going through are under the field icon.
Cleaned up a bit of the code.
Removed overriding of event values via feeding in an associative list into datum/round_event/New(). Instead you can do basic initializations (i.e. feed it constants) by doing new /datum/round_event{variablename=5;}(). This method is handled well by the compiler (it's the same method the maps use), so it will detect unrecognized variablenames etc.
More complex initializations for post setup() stuff can be done by accessing variables directly Event.variablename = whatever;
round_events now have a processing variable, which effectively pauses them.

Ported all the random events to Pete/Gia's event system:
>Event system now supports weighting. default is 10. a weight of 5 is half as likely as default, 20 twice as likely....etc.
>Increased the frequency of events (dust happens over 60% of the time though)
>tidied up some ninja code: ninjas now get ~5 objectives. So they are hardmode.
>made the gravity toggle into a random event
>event system now supports round-start events
>event system now supports holiday events
>event system now supports events which can only happen after the round has lasted a certain number of ticks
>event system now supports max_occurrences for events. Setting any event's max_occurrences to 0 will stop it randomly occurring
>events now support being fed associative lists inside new(). This allows you to override their variables easily.
>wormhole events no longer cause loads of lag. They are extremely deadly. wormholes should be avoided
Other:
>replaced the procs for fetching candidates for ninjas and aliums with /proc/get_candidates(be_special_flag), it returns a list of active clients with that be_special preference enabled.
>minor fixes to minds
>your memories are displayed to you at Login()
>removed aliens_allowed
>removed ninjas_allowed
>pick_n_take() is now more efficient (uses Cut() rather than Remove()
Things I added:
- Made the pandemic call ..() instead of doing the checks itself.
- Made the staff of animation use more charge.
