* Protolate lid no longer bounces back and forth througout the whole build cycle.
* Autolathe lid no longer closes, snaps open, and then -nothing- until item spawns.
* Instead, the lid closes, stays closed while the item builds, then opens again.
Circuits generate a research design datum when the game starts up instead of me having to manually define them every time I make a new circuit. Hopefully this reduces missing circuits due to mistakes. The circuit box also spawns specific circuits using a similar method for similar reasons.
Other things this does:
Splits the reagent related manipulation circuits to their own category, which cleans up a few repeated New()s.
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.
Drone assembly can be made in RnD now.
Adds injector component, which does what it implies, and injects a reagent into someone or something nearby.
Adds reagent pump, similar to the above but meant for moving reagents around different containers, inside or outside of the machine.
Adds adjacent locator, which can find specific objects next to the machine.
Adds two flavors of the reagent storage component, which does what it says. The second variant is a cryo-beaker version.
Ports PsiOmegaDelta's port of integrated circuits, which has several improvements in code quality.
Ports a few small things like the weakref datum and some macros.
A lot of new defines are now in inventory_sizes.dm, which contains;
All the size identifiers (the thing that tells the game if something is bulky, or w/e).
Storage costs for all the sizes, which are exponents of two, as previously.
A few constants for inventory size.
Also changes all storage item's capacity definitions by basing it off of how many 'normal slots' exist for it. This allows one to change the definition for all of the defines in the file, and everything will follow along without needing to change 500 files. In testing, I made all ITEMSIZE_COST_* defines doubled, and nothing had broke.
The benefit of doing all of this is that it makes adding new weight classes in the future much simpler, and makes knowing how much space a container has easier, as seeing ITEMSIZE_COST_NORMAL * 7 means it can hold seven normal items.
Adds a circuit that allows it to send and receive EPv2 messages, allowing for a more robust transmission of data that signalers cannot deliver. Bonus: Communicators can send text messages to custom machines using this.
Fixes numberpad and letterpad pulsing.
Debugger and Constant chip can now have null written to it.
Adds new sound output, with two types so far. One being the 'beeper' type, which can do things like buzz, ping, beep, etc. The second type is a securitron speaker, which allows us to get closer to building a functioning Beepsky.
Adds new RNG circuit, to make random numbers each time.
Adds new Concatenating circuit, so you can make lots of small strings into one big one.
Adds new light and advanced light circuit. Basic just has a normal light that can be toggled. Advanced allows it to be any color using RGB, and a brightness between 0 and 6.
New sprites for the debugger and wirer, by Mechoid.
Hopefully finally fixes smoke generator from being unobtainable.
Adds Locomotion circuit, which makes the machine move in a given direction.
Adds Signaler circuit, which can send and receive signals from a signaler.
Adds a new tool, the Debugger, which lets one directly set data in a specific pin. It can also pulse activation pins.
Adds ability to define custom cooldown times for each component.
Smoke generator now has a 30 second cooldown.
Cleans up some code somewhat.
Adds Med Scanner and Advanced Med Scanner circuits.
Clock circuit is now functional.
Five second delay will delay for five seconds and not one second.
Renaming circuitry now respects ability to do so (e.g. being alive).
Firing circuit can now be obtained by science normally.
Examining inside assembly cases now requires adjacency.
