elly1989@rocketmail.com 8961bd96d0 WARNING: This has been thoroughly tested and I'm happy that it's -stable- (it shouldn't runtime). However, it might have a few niggly bugs caused by specific items using no-standard or weird code. Most bugs will be stuff like it not updating overlays and such and can be fixed simply by dropping the item. That being said, if you're not comfortable with this, I'd suggest waiting to update past this revision.
update_clothing() has been broken up into it's key parts. A full explanation can be found in code/modules/mob/living/carbon/human/update_icons.dm
the tl;dr of it is that overlay updates are no longer called by the gameticker. Instead they are called by procs such as u_equip db_cick etc. This means faster updates (although admittedly, more of them can be called per tick). This however is offset by the fact that specific overlays can be updated now, vastly improving its efficiency. This will especially help when there are large numbers of dead mobs.

Fixed the throw code for TKgrab so it can be toggled.

Cloaking for aliens/humans/ninjas was changed. It's very crude at the moment and for that I apologise. But it works and is very efficient.It also stops cloaked individuals becomming invincible due to people being unable to hit them (even when they know exactly where  they are)

Fixed a bunch of bugs with damage-overlays. They  were updating FAR FAR to frequently. They were also horribly inefficient. They should now be virtually seamless when updating and only use cached icons, so they aren't affected by lag as badly. This may help with explosions lag a little.

There's still a tonne of stuff I need to refine with this. I'll be refining it down into some helper procs to reduce on code duplication and such
