- distance is INFINITE, 0, or a positive integer based on get_dist() between
the examiner and examinee's turfs when they are on the same Z. When the
examiner is dead or a ghost, distance is always 0.
- also updates /examine( implementations to use it!
- adds w_class_to_name proc for reusing "It is a X item." examine behavior.
* Adjust map_effect interval loop
We have those things you wanted now. Also bumped check time to 5s because 3s seems a lot for the repeated player list iteration. Not horrible but still.
* Also adjust pinpointer because it's not great
* Add a missing span in pinpointer
* Forgot a couple things!
Removes a very large amount of world loops.
Adds a macro to painlessly generate a global list, and the needed code to modify the list when an object is made or deleted automatically.
Cleans up some commented out code.
Links many map-specific details such as the station name, z-level information, and allowed jobs from global vars to map datum vars, which should help us maintain multiple maps at once in the future, which will be needed for the future Southern Cross.
Note that a config change will be needed to change GENERATE_ASTEROID to GENERATE_MAP, otherwise no changes should be required to continue normal map usage.
To change to a different map, it's suggested to tick the file that ticks all the other needed files, which for the Northern Star is called northern_star.dm.
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.
Makes the name of the starsystem and station generic such that it can be modified in global.dm and replace the strings where it is used. This won't have an effect on Polaris itself, but makes changing the name much more simple for forks. Using string concat constants on the advice of Psi.
Cleans up round end summary.
Removes duplication of traitor summaries.
Attempts to improve how the traitor purchase log is presented.
Ghosts made manifest now have different names and assignments, otherwise one would get messages like "Anguished Phantom played as an Anguished Phantom".
Instead the message is "Anguished Phantom played as a Manifest Ghost".
This should have little/no gameplay effect right now, just paving the
way for directional lights.
Replaced handle_rotation() on buckly things with this.
