- Removes a bunch of spawns and trailing returns
I'm unhappy with the way revenants are right now, and my code for them is pretty unsatisfactory in comparison to what I know now. Although revenants will still fill the same role of just being spookier ghosts, they'll be a bit more passive - incapable, for instance, of giving diseases to people. The new revenants will be called umbras and will use vitae instead of essence.
Total change list:
Revenants have been renamed to umbras. Essence has been renamed to vitae. This may be temporary.
Umbra spawn events are now weighted higher and spawn an unoccupied umbra. Ghosts are alerted to the umbra's position and may interact with it to take control of it.
Umbras' health is not based on vitae but has a hard cap at 100.
Umbras have a passive vitae drain each tick, defaulting at 0.01. If the umbra runs out of vitae, they will die irrevocably. They also slowly regenerate health by doing this.
When an umbra dies, they leave behind umbral ashes that reform after one minute. They're difficult to see and can be scattered by activating them, although they also have high research levels if you're fast enough.
Harvesting vitae from critical targets no longer kills them. Harvesting a target in general prohibits them from being harvested until five minutes later, but they can be drained again after that.
EMPs revitalize umbras and give them hefty amounts of vitae due to their physical nature.
Umbras have four abilities: Toggle Nightvision, Discordant Whisper, Possess, and Thoughtsteal.
Toggle Nightvision is self-explanatory.
Discordant Whisper is identical to the original revenant's transmit.
Possess allows the umbra to slip into a human's body unnoticed. While in their body, umbras will slowly drain vitae from the human at a tiny rate - not enough to cause harm, but enough to induce adverse effects in the clueless human. These effects intensify over time and eventually lead to the umbra being forced out of their host.
Thoughtsteal paralyzes a living human for several seconds while the umbra steals their memories. After several seconds, the umbra copies the notes of the target's memories and turns invisible - the hapless victim is stunned for several seconds afterwards and can't be Thoughtstolen by the same umbra again. Umbras have an objective to steal the memories of 25% of the station's population.
Salt piles have been added, created by salt shaker or just by splashing salt. These piles will prevent an umbra from passing and reveal them briefly if they try.
Added priority overlays to atoms, which will not be removed when overlays are cut and will always remain on top when new overlays are added. This requires everyone to use add_overlay() and cut_overlays() instead of overlays += and overlays.Cut(). These procs are found in __HELPERS/icons.dm, and the priority overlay list is found in game/atoms.dm. Everything else is replacing deprecated overlay manipulation.
Removed Dementia Doctrine, replacing it with an Application sigil.
Adds the Sigil of Accession, the previously-mentioned Application sigil, which is much like a Sigil of Submission, except it isn't removed on converting un-mindshielded targets and will disappear after converting a mindshielded target.
Sigil of Submission is now a Script instead of a Driver; It's unlocked one tier up, so you have to rely on the Drivers you have until you get Scripts, instead of spamming both Driver sigils for free converts.
To replace Sigil of Submission in the Driver tier; Added Taunting Tirade, which is a chanted scripture with a very fast invocation, which, on chanting, confuses, dizzies, and briefly stuns nearby non-servants and allows the invoker a brief time to relocate before continuing the chant.
Fixes having too few components interrupting chanting.
Blood drips icons are now in blood.dmi instead of drip.dmi (which only had the 5 drip sprites).
Moved projectiles, guns, casings and ammo boxes to be in the right files. Please don't put your gun with its projectile, ammo casing and ammo box all the same file.
I split growing.dmi into 5 smaller files so we don't get close to the 512 icon limit again. Each seed has a var to indicate which icon file to use when planted.
Fixes code for heavy pulse laser projectile to be less awful.
