Fixed the failsafe misreporting how long the MC has been dead.
Lighting initialization no longer 'interrupts' the master_controller setup().
Added updated powernet debugging tools. They're in my WIP folder. They are sexy c: It draws the powernet onto the map so you can see what's going on during debugging.
Added tachyon-doppler arrays. They're gonna be something for scientists to measure their bombs with rather than praying for the figures. Nothing spectacular.
Commented out switches, they aren't used and I've been fixing/testing powernets all day. Sorry. If you need them back just PM me and I'll fix them.
Known issues: the merging procs behave silly at intersections. I really tried to fix it but I think I'll make more progress just working on some powernet improvements.

Comments for lighting:
Like sd_DAL (what we used to use), it changes the shading overlays of areas by splitting each type of area into sub-areas
by using the var/tag variable and moving turfs into the contents list of the correct sub-area.
Unlike sd_DAL however it uses a queueing system. Everytime we call a change to opacity or luminosity
(through SetOpacity() or SetLuminosity()) we are simply updating variables and scheduling certain lights/turfs for an
update. Actual updates are handled periodically by the lighting_controller. This carries additional overheads, however it
means that each thing is changed only once per lighting_controller.processing_interval ticks. Allowing for greater control
over how much priority we'd like lighting updates to have. It also makes it possible for us to simply delay updates by
setting lighting_controller.processing = 0 at say, the start of a large explosion, waiting for it to finish, and then
turning it back on with lighting_controller.processing = 1.
Unlike our old system there is a hardcoded maximum luminosity. This is to discourage coders using large luminosity values
for dynamic lighting, as the cost of lighting grows rapidly at large luminosity levels (especially when changing opacity
at runtime)
Also, in order for the queueing system to work, each light remembers the effect it casts on each turf. This is going to
have larger memory requirements than our previous system but hopefully it's worth the hassle for the greater control we
gain. Besides, there are far far worse uses of needless lists in the game, it'd be worth pruning some of them to offset
costs.
Known Issues/TODO:
admin-spawned turfs will have broken lumcounts. Not willing to fix it at this moment
mob luminosity will be lower than expected when one of multiple light sources is dropped after exceeding the maximum luminosity
Shuttles still do not have support for dynamic lighting (I hope to fix this at some point)
No directional lighting support. Fairly easy to add this and the code is ready.
When opening airlocks etc, lighting does not always update to account for the change in opacity.
Explosions now cause lighting to cease processing temporarily.
Moved controller datums to the code/controllers directory. I plan on standardising them.
"Master","Ticker","Lighting","Air","Jobs","Sun","Radio","Supply Shuttle","Emergency Shuttle","Configuration","pAI" controller datums can be accessed via the debug controller verb (used to be the debug master controller verb)
Supply shuttle now uses a controller datum. Shuttles tend to arrive up to 30 seconds late, this is not a bug.

All credits to the author for this handy little script.
I Committed the modified python script to tool directory. Although it needs to be in the root folder of your repo to work.
To notice the improved compile times, in dreammaker go to Build > Preferences > and untick "automatically set file_dir for subfolders"
If this commit inteferes with any large projects just revert it, do your thing, then rerun the script. Easy-peasy.

As such, changelings can now be reported at round-end, even after gibbing. Resolves Issue 251
Changeling power proc_holders are now datums rather than objects.
Condensed all those changeling stings down a bit. This will make fixing issue 351 easier to fix
Replaced changeling fakedeath and a number of checks for the zombiepowder reagent with a bitflag: mob/var/status_flags & FAKEDEATH
setting the FAKEDEATH flag will make the mob appear dead in exactly the same way changeling parasting and parapens worked. I've updated changelings and zombiepowder to work with this flag.
Bug fixes for the staff of change. There was a type mismatch and I typo'd "alien" as "xeno" so xenos were not being randomly picked.
TODO:
changeling purchased verbs could probably be moved to mind/special_verbs. Likewise, other modular antag proc-holders can be merged with the changeling system using the same type of datum. (namely wizards)

-Redid icons to be more optimized at compile by setting icon = 'icons/folder/icon.dmi' instead of just icon = 'icon.dmi', meaning that Dream Maker doesn't have to search through every single file for every single .dmi. This shouldn't lead to any errors because of how I went about it, plus the fact that Dream Maker would have freaked out if I screwed something up. Also moved around 2 icons that weren't sorted well.

Without this patch, the first user had to wait for the server to
actually initialize the game. During this time the main window
of the client is not responsive to input. Now, when the first
player connects, they will see a fully initialized and responsive
lobby.
tidy and efficient than calling isDay everywhere. It defaults to disabled. It
can be enabled by uncommenting ALLOW_HOLIDAYS in config/config.txt
I've added no content just the foundations. All it does is give the station a
holiday themed name and say "Happy [Holiday] Everybody!" at the round-start.
Added a .Set Holiday verb for GM and GA Admins. I'd rather people didn't use it
for now (there's not much point as there's no content yet anyway). It's mainly
for bugtesting.
Foundations are there to create holiday random events and round-start stuff so
we can keep everything together. Check out code/game/gamemodes/events/holidays !

used for spawning bullshit like poop or grief items I'll just remove my code.
Thanks.

them a little. If you have any concerns about how I've done so just give me a
shout and I'll either rework them or revert my changes back. Wormholes
especially seem a bit faster on my laptop. Smoke has temporarily been removed
from the blackhole event until I get time to investigate why the hell
effect_systems are using so much memory ( spark effects were using 40% of my
processor a second ago D: ). To compensate this I made them a new sprite.
Commented out the authentication system. It was the remnants of the old goon
authentication stuff (or maybe even older) and wasn't actually used in our code
at all (at least not in any useful way, it was merely called and short-circuited
to 1, so all those if(authenticated) were totally pointless. This has removed 3
unused variables from every client, a bunch of unused variables from the config
and two empty text files!
Committed (as a config option) a feature requested by Apoc station. It causes a
'reply to' window to popup when an admin PMs a non-admin player. It's meant to
grab their attention so they can't say "I didn't see your PM". It defaults to
off. To turn it on just uncomment the #POPUP_ADMIN_PM line in config/config.txt
Fixed a derp in isday where it was fetching the month instead of the day.
Removed medal references from Gib()
Removed the medal_hub global variables because they aren't used in any way shape
or form.

terrible additional lag, given that the master controller doesn't actually fire
that often, and can also give us a clue as to what part of the controller has
died in case of failure
Modifies do_after to something that fires a lot less, and is hopefully more
robust against infinite loops. It is now theoretically possible to run around
and then come back to the same place and have it complete, but that's only
really valid for extremely long times (like handcuff removal) and if you get
lucky and dodge one of the timed checks.

/obj/effects is now /obj/effect.
/obj/station_objects is now /obj/structure.
Did a bit of minor blob work.
The Bay 12 body bags were replaced with closets because having two sets of code that do almost the same thing is silly.
Changed back a few of the last jobproc edits as the remove from list before assign was a check to see if the mob was fucked up and if it was remove it so we did not check it again as it would still be fucked up.
The medbay/tox monkeys names are random once more. More random name monkeys will help with changeling and clean up the observe/mob menus.

Two new categories were made: station_objects and effects. station_objects, which I'm sure someone will want renamed to 'structures' contains the objects which don't need process() or power code.
Effects contains objects which are either landmarks, triggers, spawners or decal.

I have done lots of work to make selecting players for special roles be fair.
- New options preferences: "be traitor", "be changeling" and so on for all special roles.
- Now you can have job of AI/cyborg in preferences and do not lower your chances to become wizard/changeling/etc. And vice-versa: you do not have to select AI in your preferences to have non zero chance to play malf.
- Jobban from syndicate bans player from any special role (including malf AI, cult, etc).
- Fixed bug with changeling round not ending sometimes.
- All special roles were tuned to work better as admin-driven event.
-- All adminmade special characters will be listed at the end of round of any type.
-- All adminmade special characters are fully functional with following exceptions:
--- The ending conditions are determined at round start, i.e. you cannot end revolution by killing wizards and malf AIs (however, with nuke you can end anything).
--- The cultists cannot get their special objectives.
--- The malf AI can hack the APCs but without any profit.
--- The syndicate operatives must obtain the nuke/working code from admins.
--- As before, nuclear explosion ends round. Even if nuke was used in wrong place.
- Fixed thingy like "Not enough players for revolution game mode. Restarting world in 5 seconds."
- Changeling wont get objective "absorb X genomes" when there are less that X players in game.
- proc/equip_if_possible now has return value, procs like equip_revolutionary (giving a flash) should be more reliable.
- There are no fake wizards anymore. The research staff have to kill ALL wizards on order to win, even adminspawned ones. ("give spell" verb works as before, not making a spellcaster to actually be wizard).
- The semi-new game mode: traitor+changeling. Just like regular traitor mode plus one changeling. Round ends when the shuttle reaches centcom. Option for config.txt: "PROBABILITY TRAITORCHAN".
- Successful malf AI now have 60 seconds to choose to explode the station or not (some players still have to rejoin game to have their new verbs shown in Malfunction tab).
- Monkeys mode fixed, monkeys wouldn't randomly cure anymore.
For admins:
- New powerful mind editor oriented to mixed rounds.
-- Setting someone as special character (like wizard) does not equip him/her automatically. You have to do it it next step. Note, that in case of wizards and nuke operatives their old dress will be deleted! If you do not want it you shall use "undress" link.
-- Only operatives, head revs and cultists have their objectives set immediately.
-- You can unemad borgs!
-- You cannot unemag borgs because calling mind editor for nonhumans is blocked atm.
-- many other useful features.
-- you can fix burned out flashes from mind editor.
-- first assign the new malf AI/wizard then demalf/dewizard old one or round will immediately end.
- if delete the nuke bomb during its downcounting round will stuck. Using "edit ticker variables" set ticker.mode.explosion_in_progress = 0.
For coders:
- /datum/game_mode/malfunction/AI_Module renamed to /datum/AI_Module. Reason: What. The. Fuck.
Unrelated fixes:
- Blueprints can create areas up to 300 tiles (was 100).
- Cyborgs wont leave backpacks at spawn point anymore.
- Fixed bug in preferences causing preferences files to be huge.
- Diseases can infect again.
- The option "SQL_ENABLED 0" now works in config.txt.
- fixed critical bug on assassinate objective.
Bugs:
- We have a bug with job distribution for people who haven't any available jobs in their preferences. Players tends to group by jobs.
- For example, if we have 3 players they with hight chances will got same jobs. And probability of having one engineer and one medic _exactly_ equals _zero_.
- I am not sure if my changes made that bug worse. Anyway I MUST do this commit. Bug will be fixed eventually. Maybe.
