It is a simple hunk of metal, painted to a moody green or dangerous voidsuits purple and blacks.
It has a lower block chance than the real deal, but it is still a strong help against melee foes and the occasional beam or two. Do mind that those seem to be a lot squishier since the AI update.
And just like any tacticool object, it has a big flashlight stuck at the front to help with visibility, it's not like you can actually see much out of that slit.
You can order two for 80 points at cargo.
It actually starts in the pathfinder locker, meaning they decide whether or not it will be used.
This adds throw_alert() and /obj/screen/alert, a system that allows you
to do custom hud alerts for any variety of things from "You're too
cold!" to mecha status indicators for the pilot.
There's quite a few things that actually got replaced; the
fire/oxy/tox/co2 alerts are all now just alerts, as is nutrition. The
xenochimera feral indicator would probably be a good candidate for
conversion, but I didn't touch it in this PR. There's also a number of
new alerts, such as blindness, highness, legcuffed, buckled, handcuffed,
and probably some more I missed; read code/_onclick/hud/alert.dm and see
for yourself!
Additionally, a number of tweaks have been done to resisting code, to
make it so that there's an indicator when you're buckled or handcuffed,
and can just click the alert to start resisting. This includes a
refactor that combines the logic for lockers, holders, micros
escaping from shoes, and struggling in a gut all into one proc, called
container_resist(). This means that vore bellies actually no longer need
the resist override, but it's been left in place just in case someone
finds something else they want to use it for.
Also, the health and internals indicator got moved down one tile each.
Needed room for the alerts. If we add the oxygen tank action buttons
from /tg/ and remove the internals indicator, the health indicator can
go back where it was originally.
