* Forces areas to create their lighting objects when loaded from a map template (#62931) Continues the journey of #61730. This time, all map templates will see their area lighting objects created upon getting loaded if they have static_lighting = TRUE. This means that places like Hilbert's hotel, as well as any map placed by an admin during the round, will now be able to properly have dynamic lights without any need for VV shenanigans. Tested and working, I tested with Hilbert's hotel and by spawning a couple of other map templates to confirm. Fixes #61558, closes #61340 (kinda not, but it's already fixed anyway, and loosely related to this) and should be the final nail in the coffin of #61349. Courtesy ping to @ TiviPlus, just in case you had anything to say about it. * Forces areas to create their lighting objects when loaded from a map template Co-authored-by: GoldenAlpharex <58045821+GoldenAlpharex@users.noreply.github.com>
The code in this module originally evolved from dmm_suite and has since been specialized for SS13 and otherwise tweaked to fit /tg/station's needs. dmm_suite version 1.0 Released January 30th, 2011. NOTE: Map saving functionality removed defines the object /dmm_suite - Provides the proc load_map() - Loads the specified map file onto the specified z-level. - provides the proc write_map() - Returns a text string of the map in dmm format ready for output to a file. - provides the proc save_map() - Returns a .dmm file if map is saved - Returns FALSE if map fails to save The dmm_suite provides saving and loading of map files in BYOND's native DMM map format. It approximates the map saving and loading processes of the Dream Maker and Dream Seeker programs so as to allow editing, saving, and loading of maps at runtime. ------------------------ To save a map at runtime, create an instance of /dmm_suite, and then call write_map(), which accepts three arguments: - A turf representing one corner of a three dimensional grid (Required). - Another turf representing the other corner of the same grid (Required). - Any, or a combination, of several bit flags (Optional, see documentation). The order in which the turfs are supplied does not matter, the /dmm_writer will determine the grid containing both, in much the same way as DM's block() function. write_map() will then return a string representing the saved map in dmm format; this string can then be saved to a file, or used for any other purose. ------------------------ To load a map at runtime, create an instance of /dmm_suite, and then call load_map(), which accepts two arguments: - A .dmm file to load (Required). - A number representing the z-level on which to start loading the map (Optional). The /dmm_suite will load the map file starting on the specified z-level. If no z-level was specified, world.maxz will be increased so as to fit the map. Note that if you wish to load a map onto a z-level that already has objects on it, you will have to handle the removal of those objects. Otherwise the new map will simply load the new objects on top of the old ones. Also note that all type paths specified in the .dmm file must exist in the world's code, and that the /dmm_reader trusts that files to be loaded are in fact valid .dmm files. Errors in the .dmm format will cause runtime errors.
