 ## About The Pull Request Made a new UI and refactored some mech code in the process. Fixes #66048 Fixes #77051 Fixes #65958 ??? if it was broken Fixes #73051 - see details below Fixes other undocumented things, see changelog. ## Why It's Good For The Game The UI was too bulky and Mechs were too complex for no reason. Now they follow some general rules shared between other SS13 machinery, and there is less magic happening under the hood. ## Detailed Changes ### New Mech UI, Air Tank and Radio as separate modules Previous UI for comparison: <img alt="9SScrXAOjy" src="https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/assets/3625094/904e3d07-e7d7-4d3a-a062-93e0e35b4b66"> Previously mechs came with radio pre-installed and air canisters magically pre-filled with air even when you build one in fab. Radio and Air Tanks are now both utility modules that are optional to install. Gas RCS thrusters still require Air Tank module to operate. This made the Mechs more barebones when built, giving you only the basic functionality. <img alt="5SDMlXTJxv" src="https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/assets/3625094/b9364230-49ac-416b-aa70-e851fbf2050e"> To compensate this change, all mechs got two extra utility module slots. All other modules got new UI. And ore box now shows the list of ores inside. <img alt="SRX5FjvsHA" src="https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/assets/3625094/cbe2e98d-1cd4-4667-8dae-2f9227b4b265"> ### Mounted Radio Works as a normal radio, but with subspace transmission. Available from the basic mech research node and can be printed in fab. ### Cabin Sealing To compensate for the lack of air tank by default, mechs with enclosed cabin (e.g. all except Ripley) got an ability to toggle cabin exposure to the outside air. Exiting the mech makes cabin air automatically exposed. When you seal the cabin, it traps some of the outside air inside the cabin and you can breathe with this air to perform a short space trips. But the oxygen will run out quickly and CO2 will build up. Sealing the cabin in space will make the cabin filled with vacuum, and it will stay there until you return to air environment and unseal the cabin, letting the breathable air to enter. There are temperature and pressure sensors that turn yellow/red when the corresponding warning thresholds are reached. You could also use personal internals in combination with cabin sealing for long space travels, so Air Tank is completely optional now and mostly needed when you need RCS thruster. ### RCS thrusters They are now available earlier in tech tree and consume reasonable amount of air (5 times more than human jetpacks), and they don't work without Mounted Air Tank, unless it's an Ion thruster variant. ### Mounted Air Tank Available from the basic mech research node and can be printed in fab. Built model comes empty, and syndicate mechs come with one full of oxygen. <img alt="GrFDrH5Hwe" src="https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/assets/3625094/b677b705-bda0-4c8c-96c7-d32bf7bf9f28"> Can be switched to pressurize or not pressurize the cabin. Releases gas only when the cabin is sealed shut. Starts releasing automatically, but can be toggled to not release if you want to use it just as a portable canister. Cabin pressure can now be configured in the module UI instead of Maintenance UI. Can be attached to a pipe network when the mech is parked above a connection port. Comes with a pump that works similarly to the portable pump. It lets you vent the air tank contents outside, or suck air from the room to fill the air tank. Intended to provide an ability to fill the air tank without the need to bother with pipes. Also has gas sensors that display gas mix data of the tank and the cabin (when sealed). ### Stock part changes All mechs now require a servo motor and they reduce mech movement power consumption instead of scanning module. Scanning modules are optional for mech operation (still required to build) and the lack of one disables the following UI elements: - Display of mech integrity (you can still see the alerts or examine the mech to get rough idea) - Display of mech status on internal damage (and you can't repair what you can't diagnose) The rating of scanning module doesn't have any effect as of now. Cargo mech comes without it roundstart. <img alt="2vDtt99oqb" src="https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/assets/3625094/147144ca-824e-4501-acf5-6ee104f309e7"> Capacitors now also reduce light power usage and raise the overclocking temperature thresholds (see below). ### Maintenance Maintenance UI removed, and its logic migrated to other places. Access modification now managed inside the mech, and anyone who can control the mech, can adjust the access in the same way as they can set DNA key. To open the maintenance panel you just need a screwdriver. It is instant when the mech is empty and it has a 5 second delay when there is an occupant to avoid in-combat hacking and part removal. It will alert the occupant that someone is trying to tinker with their mech.  Once the panel is open, you can see the part ratings:  With open panel you can hack the mech wires (roboticists can now see them): <img alt="mj205G2qDa" src="https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/assets/3625094/44cea0d1-44b4-4b50-b1d3-a97c0056bab3"> There are wires for: - Enabling/Disabling ID and DNA locks - Toggling mech lights - Toggling mech circuits malfunction (battery drain, sparks) - Toggling mech equipment malfunction (to repair after EMP or cause EMP-like effect, disarming mech) - 3 dud wires that do nothing The hacker may be shocked if the mech power cell allows. When the panel is open and the user has access to the mech, they can remove parts with a crowbar: <img alt="jR40gyTWtJ" src="https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/assets/3625094/b573f5b9-b8ea-412e-b3e0-c872e01e0c23"> Hitting the mech with an ID from outside now toggles the ID Lock on/off if the ID has sufficient access. ### Power consumption and overclocking Rebalanced mech power consumption. T4 parts were not working in Syndicate Mechs, as their effect was not calculated until you manipulate parts manually. Constructed mechs with t1 parts even had their energy drain reduced with upgrade to t1. Now all mechs apply their base step power usage correctly don't ignore the stock parts. Servo tier now reduces base power consumption by 0% at t1, 50% at t2, 33% at t3 and 25% at t4 Capacitor tier now reduces base power consumption of mele attacks, phasing and light by the same amounts. Gygax leg actuators overload replaced with mech overclocking. Any mech can be overclocked by hacking wires, but only Gygax has a button for toggling it from the Cabin. Now there is an overclock coefficient. 1.5 for Gygax and other mechs, 2 for Dark Gygax. When overclocked, mechs moves N times faster, but consumes N times more power.  While overclocked, mech heats up every second, regardless of movement, and starts receiving internal and integrity damage after a certain temperature threshold. The chance is 0% at the threshold, and 100% at thresholds * 2. The roll happens every tick. Capacitor upgrades this threshold, letting you overclock safely for longer periods.  When you stop overclock, the temperature goes back down. ### Other changes and fixes Concealed weapon bay now doesn't show up when you examine the mech, so it's actually concealed now. New radio module can properly change its frequency, as it didn't work for previous radio. Launcher type weapons were ignoring cooldowns and power usage, so you could spam explosive banana peals, while they should have a 2 second cooldown: <img alt="q5GjUsHwGr" src="https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/assets/3625094/d102725d-e9e1-4588-9d6c-b9e38b7a6535"> Now this is fixed and all launcher type weapons properly use power and have their cooldowns working. And now they have the kickback effect working (when it pushes you in the opposite direction in zero gravity on throw). Thermoregulator now heats/cools considering heat capacity instead of adding/reducing flat 10 degrees. So you can heat up cabin air quicker if the pressure is low. There were some other sloppy mistakes in mech code, like some functions returning too early, blocking other functionality unintentionally. Fixed these and made some other minor changes and improvements. ## Changelog 🆑 refactor: Refactored Mech UI refactor: Refactored mech radio into a utility module, adding extra slot to all mechs refactor: Refactored mech air tank into a utility module with an air pump, adding extra slot to all mechs refactor: Refactored mech cabin air - there is now a button to seal or unseal cabin to make it airtight or exchanging gases with the environment refactor: Removed mech maintenance UI Access is set in mech UI, and parts are ejected with a crowbar add: Mech now has wires and can be hacked qol: Roboticists now can see MOD suit and mech wires add: Mechs now require servo motor stock part and it affects movement power usage instead of scanning module add: Scanning module absence doesnt block mech movement and hides some UI data instead.
