Cult is awful, so let's try to improve it. Idea by KorPhaeron. I also
took some inspiration from adrix89's sacrifice cult, so credits to him.
Also thanks a lot specially to MrPerson and Iamgoofball for helping
me brainstorm this, and Joan for the sprites for the summoning orb,
the large nar-sie shell, and the new cult antag hud.
Basically, we remove conversion, and turn cult into a magic version of
nuke, with a small team of stealth elite cultists that have to build a
base in the station and sacrifice people in order to build an army of
constructs and get materials to eventually summon Nar-Sie.
Stun talismans and conversion are gone. Nar-Sie is now the only
objective. Sacrifice runes now provide summoning orbs, which you can use
to drop a large shell. Insert enough orbs in the shell and you trigger a
Delta. Defend the shell for 3 minutes and Nar-sie will arise. This shell
is bombproof and singularityproof. It may be summoned up to three times
if destroyed, but you will have to start from the beginning sac-wise.
Runes are now RNG. Each cultist only gets 50% of the runes. Inspiration
is basically The Binding of Isaac here (thank you MrPerson for this!).
Furthermore, many old runes were merged/removed and other new ones were
added. Almost all were massively rebalanced. Cult now also has a
stealthy ritual dagger with high bleeding and throw effects.
What had happened: when stage six was added stage five's survivability took a stealth nerf, because any time the singularity reached enough energy to go six but hadn't eaten a supermatter shard (read: almost ever time) it would be force set to 2000 energy.
The problem: 2000 energy is the verge of stage four, so every time this hard set was hit (and for a hungry singulo this could be every consume check) the energy would be set to 2000. Then, at the same time, the singulo would suffer a little energy loss, momentarily become level four. Then, still all the same breath here, any new items would be eaten, pushing it back into level five.
Thus the singulo blinked.
As far as I can tell this was an unreported issue.
changed the values so the equipment effect stays the same. Remove global_iterator datum.
- fiddled with equip_ready procs of mech tools.
- removed mecha/proc/do_after and /enter_after() procs.
- Renamed mech sleeper occupant var to "patient" to avoid confusion with the occupant of the mech.
- all non instant tool (drill) now show a progbar when drilling etc..
- action cooldown now use do_after_cooldown() (that itself uses do_after) and start_cooldown (for instantaneous actions).
- Removed mecha_equipment's destroy proc, it's now all in Destroy(). No confusion.
- modified mecha_equipment/proc/can_attach() to not check istype(mecha) b/c it can't not be. (so the child only have one istype check.
- Removed diamonddrill/can_attach() , all done at drill level.
- armor booster now only for combat mech, instead of all except honkmech.
- Removed dynhitby, dynbulletdamage, dynattackby, dynusepower(), dyngetcharge(), dynabsorbdamage()
- I split the tools.dm file into smaller ones: work tools, mining tools, other tools.
- I split mecha.dm into mecha.dm, mecha_topic.dm and mecha_defense.dm
- refactored mech weapon ballistic/launcher, new proj_init proc, more OOP.
- Moving consumes energy! Lights consumes energy. Fixes#9425.
- Fixed#7354 xeno not bursting if host is inside a mech.
- Added action buttons to mech. Moved toggle lights, internal tank, eject, view stats from verbs to action buttons, these can now only
be done via these buttons (removed them from the big stats window).
- Removed port connect verbs b/C it's automated now.
- regular hud is no longer hidden when inside a mech (doesn't matter b/c you can't interact with most stuff in it while in a mecha). Fixes issue 10387
- can't walk when shooting projectiles. Makes walking on your projectile a bit harder. Helps against issue 10315 (but doesn't fix it).
- also made into action buttons: the special abilities of certain combat mechs.
- Added thrown alerts for mech charge and integrity.
- Fixes teleporting occupant out not properly removing it from the mech. Fixes issue 10330
- fixes ballistic mech weapons spinning when launched. proc/throw_at() now has a spin argument instead of using var/allow_spin that was added to all atoms just for that.
- added a update_action_buttons() to ai/life() to handle ai mech.
Fixes simple animals that needs to breath not taking damage from lack of gas to breath on space turfs.
Fixes revenant not being spaceworthy.
Fixes simple_animal accumulating radiation indefinitely because they are unaffected by it.
Fixes surviving suicide
Fixes suicide damage overlays.
Fixes ninja regen "clothes warm" spam message. (moving rad armor check outside of apply_effect)
Fixes ninja smoke bomb count.
Fixes dead shaved corgi
Fixes lipozine still being in code.
Fixes flattening boxes requiring them to have their window opened.
Fixes armor softening message from disarm attack.
Fixes player being forced to play spiders without choosing.
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
Fix an off-by-one error that caused the singulo to get stuck along contaiment fields. For a 5x5 singulo, it would check 6 squares ahead (correct for a step forward) and then 6 squares to the sides (incorrect). Now it tests 6 squares ahead, 5 to the sides. This is technically wrong for the growth checks but they check every direction anyways, so it's ok.
Made the singularity drift in all cases and not stop next to lattices.
In process(), moved the growth checks after the movement attempt so it will take a step and then grow rather than take a step, drift into the walls, and then attempt and fail to grow as part of the next process().
Removes a version of atom/movable/Move() that was in mob_movement.dm.
New proc called newtonian_move() that's called as a result of things like shooting a gun or spraying a fire extinguisher and as part of atom/movable/Move().
It pushes src if it's not under gravity and gives the object a chance to stop itself.
As a result, inertial_drift() is kill.
Moved Process_Spacemove() out to atom/movable. It does the same thing, it's called whenever a drift is attempted and stops the drift if it returns 1. Default check is to look for nearby lattices to make dragging shit around the station less annoying. Mobs still call it in Client/Move()
The mob version of Process_Spacemove() will shove non-anchored nearby objects out of the way if you try to move like that. For example if you're free-floating in space next to a closet and try to move right, the closet will drift off to the left.
Mechs call their occupant's version of Process_Spacemove() so mining with a mech isn't retarded. The pussy wagon does the same thing and thus no longer works like a jetpack. Will it be making a comeback?!?! (no)
Any move will attempt to keep dragging your pulled object, not just ones initiated by the client. Should make space wind a little less annoying. Was needed to make drifting not break your drags.
Mechs drift correctly without any special snowflake crap.
Spaceslipping is gone because fuck that shit
Space movement is now slow instead of fast. Having a jetpack helps go faster but even that's slower than current. Hopefully means nuke ops can see each other as they move to the station instead of losing sight of each other instantly. Having your hands full makes spacemovement even slower.
You can drift in office chairs and drag mobs in beds or the bed itself. Currently drifting diagonally while in an office chair is bugged and I need help to solve it. It winds up in cardinal movement instead of a diagonal one.
Changes up the jetpacking effects system to cause fewer errant ion trails but it's still awful code. In hindsight I shouldn't have bothered but here we go.
Replaces for(mob in oviewers) show_message() with visible_message() when possible.
Fixes the absolute pathing in Ninja code.
Fixes facehugger attack messages being bold red for third party (only the first leap message will stay bold red for third party, for better visibility)
Standardizes vomiting message
Fixes mech occupant not receiving any attack messages when the mech is attacked.
