* Polaris initial plane upstream merge
* POLARIS: Fix RIG visors with new plane system, and material scanner VIS_FULLBRIGHT
* POLARIS: Fix GetFlatIcon so that cameras and id pictures don't show the HUD overlays.
* POLARIS: Adds a 'alter values' proc for plane master ease of tweaking
Setting stuff like colorblindness variety and things.
* Remove NIF reference, fix lighting layer define
* Handle effects above lighting plane
* Moved all layer defines to planes+layers.dm
* Fixed overlays that are supposed to be above lighting to use the PLANE_LIGHTING_ABOVE
* Merge: 3000% human/update_icons() speed improvement
* Merge: Avoid ghosts pointing at things
* Creating new objects is cheap, in fact comparable to the cost of getting it out of the pool, so it doesn't help there.
* Placing items in the pool is far more expensive than letting them garbage collect due to the resetting of vars and such.
Fixes auto blindness and no click on 510 servers, lessens the lag of
mesons and material scanners, and I suspect the general speed as well.
I only made it work for Polaris (and by extention, to our server, Eros),
and adapted it a bit.
