* Promethean Tweaks Round Howevermany We're On Now
* Tweak again. Drinks only plink damage that can be regenned. Multiple drinks, or other sources of tox will still mean these are dangerous.
* Add Blurb other than just "What has science done?"
* Adds the changelog.
* Fixes the stupid.
* Fixfix @ Ater
* 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
Adds toolspeed var, which is a multiplier on how 'fast' the tool works. 0.5 means it goes twice as fast.
Adds usesound var, which determines what sound is used when a tool is being used.
Changes a lot of code to use those two vars instead.
Adds 'ayyy' tools, which are ported from /tg/'s abductor gamemode. They're currently admin only but I might make them obtainable by xenoarch later.
Adds powertools, also from /tg/. CE starts with them in a new toolbelt that spawns in their locker, ported from (you guessed it) /tg/.
Changes welder sprites to look nicer, ported yet again from /tg/. Modified the blue welder slightly so it can be the electric welder sprite.
Adds various sounds from /tg/, for tools and welders.
* Okay evidently walk_to(A, B) doesn't stop when A reaches B, but keeps running in the background forever until it is manually canceled! Therefore in order to be garbage collected, we must cancel walking on any object that might have initiated it.
* Fixes this on chemsmoke and spiders.
* The same story applies to walk_towards; fixed for dust, meteors and immovablerod, and also to walk_away; fixed for flashbangs.
* Also fixed chemsmoke actually getting qdeled at the right time.
* 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.
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.
Tweaked the code some, changed the number of fragments spawned from 50 to 63. Damage remains the same, fragments now have a thirty percent armor pen. This also means that how lethal grenades are has gone up by a lot. One landing at your feet is lethal. Standing next to one will seriously hurt. Tile or two back the dropoff is still in effect.
Basically need some live testing in round with real folk to get a idea of how bad or good this will be. Will likely need to tweak the damage downwards instead of upwards.
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.
