Separates the 'count and assess everything' stuff to it's own datum, called the metric datum, which I plan to add on to in the future to make counting and metrics easier.
Makes decision process a bit more weight-based, will probably continue tweaking later.
Makes the admin debug UI have links to change settings easily.
Adds replacement for grid check event, which works similar to the old one, but is now based on a physical machine in the game world, that Engineering can hack to make the event end faster, if so desired. Note that the machine is not mapped in, and won't be mapped in until the event system is ready for launch.
Adds grid_check variables to SMESes and APCs to make them stop doing work without draining the battery.
Grid checks in the new system are caused by a "power spike" which originates from the engine and will cause bad things, should no grid checker machine be connected to the power-net. These power spikes occur when the GM decides that a grid check is a good event to have.
The grid checker can be built and deconstructed using the standard machine construction methods.
- Fixes issues caused when makepowernets() was somehow called.
- Substations (or read, breakerboxes) work properly now. Tested.
- Powernets no longer decide to randomly stop working when stuff is being modified.
- Mostly temporary fix until next devmerge which will (hopefully) add /tg/ powernet code.
power_change() now defaults to using the machines power_channel
Moved the remaining machinery power defines into the proper files
Added code for a basic Antimatter Engine.
It is currently made up of a control unit and several shield objects.
The shield objects must have a patch through other shield objects or be directly touching the control unit. If they are unable to find one they will be del’d.
The control unit needs to be given an antimatter containment jar for fuel before it will properly startup.
A core is created when a shield object detects it has shields/control unit surrounding it.
You can safely inject double the number of cores worth of fuel.
Getting blown up, getting hit by the blob, getting hit with high force items, getting shot, being fed too much fuel will all end up lowering the stability of the reactor parts and once the stability gets to 0 it will either break or, if currently processing some fuel, explode.
I’ve tested the parts several times and nothing seemed to go wrong, the sprites suck but that is to be expected.
