- 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.
* Makes slightly smaller objects capable of bashing open busted APCs
Because I've realized that engineers have enough --- to deal with without having to hunt down a fire extinguisher to bash open an APC
* Grammaring the best
Drone subtype added that is slower than the regular type, so that fleeing is an option now.
All drones on surface POIs have been replaced by this subtype.
Fixes power issues in several POIs.
Makes POI SMESes more robust and start full.
APCs in POIs will no longer send an alert to the station.
Fixes missing area in bonfire POI.
Tweaks name and desc of big stompy drone mechas.
Now certain weapons can strike faster or slower than usual. No weapons currently do this as this PR just lays the groundwork for that.
The click delay can also be modified with traits. The slime agility modifier makes attacks happen 25% sooner.
Adds debug test verb to display a weapon's DPS. It's really basic but should be sufficient for future force adjustments I might do in the future.
Adds toolspeed var, which is a multiplier on how 'fast' the tool works. 0.5 means it goes twice as fast.
Adds usesound var, which determines what sound is used when a tool is being used.
Changes a lot of code to use those two vars instead.
Adds 'ayyy' tools, which are ported from /tg/'s abductor gamemode. They're currently admin only but I might make them obtainable by xenoarch later.
Adds powertools, also from /tg/. CE starts with them in a new toolbelt that spawns in their locker, ported from (you guessed it) /tg/.
Changes welder sprites to look nicer, ported yet again from /tg/. Modified the blue welder slightly so it can be the electric welder sprite.
Adds various sounds from /tg/, for tools and welders.
-Adds a Polaris version of APC rebooting
-Changes the random APC-bluescreening event to be more sensible in what it does and how to repair it. Bluescreened APCs are permanently unlocked, and can be fixed by removing the power cell and applying a multitool.
-EMP'd APCs now give Bay's timed (or manual) reboot nanoUI so that important places aren't shut off permanently if engineering can't get around to them.
-Nins and twizs no longer **** up APCs when they drain power from the cell completely. Also, drained power comes from the powernet primarily, and only draws from the battery if the powernet doesn't give enough (random chance) or if the cable is cut.
-Bluescreened APC sprite now switches to an open wire panel sprite if a screwdriver is applied.
-Grid checks put a nanoUI notice on APCs. As it is now, you have to wait for the grid check to end or use the grid checker in engineering before you can manipulate APCs.
-Grammar fixes
-More grammar fixes
-My god the grammar fixes
-to_chat'd the user <<s again.
-Merged a small clean-up to power states.
-Bashing APCs to pieces was always ineffective but would spam everyone anyway. Now, it only spams the person bashing the APC. This is a placeholder, ideally you should be able to bash a working APC's cover off if you want its battery out but this PR is already big enough as is.
