- Instead of using auto_use_power to re-tally up machinery's power usage every cycle, track the steady "static" load separately from the transient "oneoff" usage. Machines then only need to inform the area when they use oneoff power or *change* their steady usage.
- Remove auto_use_power and stop SSmachines from calling it.
- Add vars to track "static" usage for each of the three power channels to /area
- Rename the existing three vars to "oneoff" so its clear what they mean (and to catch people accidentally updating them directly)
- Update area power procs and APCs to use the new variables.
- Rename /area/proc/use_power() to use_power_oneoff() to make it clear what it is doing.
- Deprecate /obj/machinery/use_power() in favor of use_power_oneoff() but don't delete yet. Can transition gradually.
- Add logic to the update_power procs on machines to calculate the deltas and update static area power whenever their usage changes.
- Add logic to machines to update area power when they are created, destroyed, or move.
- Moved /obj/machinery procs related to area power usage into machinery_power.dm to make them easier to find.
- Added or updated comments in several places to explain what is going on and how to use it.
- Adds the update_idle_power_usage() and update_active_power_usage() procs for the respective vars.
- Switches all places modifying those vars directly to call the procs instead.
- This will let us react to the change appropriately, paving the way towards static area power.
- Adds update_power_channel proc for the sake of completeness, but no machines actually modify it so far.
- Create the landmark as normal, but instead of allocating a z-level and placing it, register a pre_move listener on the shuttle and setup the z-level only when the shuttle is about to move to its overmap landmark.
- Change when shuttles fire the shuttle_pre_move_event to before calculating translation list to give us a chance to allocate the z-level.
- Adds circuit boards for shuttle consoles. (Ferry, Multi, and Overmap).
- Deconstructing a console saves the linked shuttle tag in the board for when it is re-constructed. New boards start blank but will auto-link if you build the console on a shuttle.
- Boards know what type of shuttle they can control and will only auto-link with a shuttle if it is the appropriate type.
Note: By default the only mapped-in shuttle consoles that are deconstrutable are overmap and multi shuttle consoles. For any others, consoles built mid-game will be deconstrutable but the mapped-in ones will not. That way the arrival, escape, supply ferry shuttles etc won't be messed with unless the mapper specifically chooses to override and make them that way.
- Move overmap defines to _defines folder. Rename old file to turfs.dm since that is what it contains.
- Definition of overmap event objects and the overmap event handler.
- Upgrades to SSevents and SSskybox to tie in the overmap events.
- Enhancement to /datum/event itself to support affecting_z and victim ship.
- Upgrade to the five event types used on the overmap to support new vars.
- Upgrade to dust and meteor spawning code to support targeting z-levels.
- Ports the overmap, ships, sectors, and "landable" ships from baystation.
- Ports necessary computers to control ships and overmap shuttles.
- Shims missing machine and computer functionality pending future enhancements.
- Includes required new sprites and sounds.
Largely ported from the work done at Baystation in https://github.com/Baystation12/Baystation12/pull/17460 and later commits.
- Shuttles no longer require a separate area for each location they jump to.
Instead destinations are indicated by landmark objects, which are not necessarily exclusive to that shuttle.
This means that more than one shuttle could use the same docking port (not at the same time of course).
- Enhanced shuttle control computers to use nanoui if they didn't.
- Organizes shuttle datum code a bit better so there is less re-inventing the wheel in subtypes.
- Allows the possibility of shuttles (or destinations) that start on late-loaded maps.
- Deprecate the "extra" shuttle areas that are no longer needed and update shuttle areas in unit tests
This all required a bit of infrastructure improvements.
- ChangeArea proc, for changing the area of a turf.
- Fixed lighting overlays actually being able to be destroyed.
- Added a few utility macros and procs.
- Added "turf translation" procs which are like move_contents_to but more flexible.
