## About The Pull Request ### Reftracking BS Alllright so reftracking is slow, really really slow. That's a problem for me, both because I want it to be fast so I can more efficiently torture players by running it on live, but also because it impedes both local and CI runs. So I've set out to micro optimize the DoSearchVar proc, one of the hottest in the game. I've done this in a few different ways. #### The simple shit Removing redundant proc args Yeeting assoc arg setting (extra cost) Moving if statements around to prioritize the more common case Ignoring empty lists. #### The not simple shit Throwing our snowflake list checking into the sun (Background, byond has some special lists that cannot be accessed like an assoc list, trying to will lead to runtimes) The way we handle this involves inspecting their ref string, and it eats a LOT of time. Faster then to mark all the lists we know are special by var name, and then use try/catch to detect and silence anything that sneaks through (this is on the order of like 1/3 per run, kinda curious what they are tbh) Thanks to MSO for the idea for this btw. Removes the vars and logic that tied ref searching to clients. It's not how this code is used, and it slows everything else down for really no reason Added support for handing in a known "hanging reference" count, and then searching for that. This lets us early exit the ref search if we find everything we were looking for, which is REALLY powerful, and why I asked for refcount() in the first place. ### Harddel Fixes [Fixes some harddels w gulag stuff born of the 515 one way ref issues](046d7daa03) [Ensures proximity cameras clean their ref to their proximity datum if it's deleted](ff607e9ccb) [Deleting a pipe connected via the gas_machine_connector datum to a machine should also delete that machine (harddel fix)](9eecca22e7) ## Why It's Good For The Game All this combined speeds up refsearching massively, on the order of hundreds of seconds, and makes it far less time consuming for both CI and running on live. I'll be bullying some servers semi soon, want to see what I can cut out.
