* A preface to my madness
Travis failed one of my PR's because I copied old code
that used /red /blue /green.
Because of this, I am going to find and replace every
instance of it that I find.
Also this is a test commit to make sure I'm comitting
to the correct branch.
* /blue /green /red replacements
Dear god.
A slow and painful death from acid is more fun than this.
I wouldn't wish this torture on my worst enemy.
And this is only the beginning
* Replace part 2.
Time to fix the human error.
* Fixes mismatches
* Sets macro count to 220
One above the current number of macros in the code.
* Fixes last of the mismatches.
* Removes spaces, replaces \black
Removes spaces
Replaces \black in a few areas where seen
Replaces \bold with <B> </B> where seen
* Updating macro count again
* More fixes!
* Issues fixed! For real this time!
I swear!
* Fixing all the merge conflict files.
Sprites replaced with a black box that could conceivably contain a brain, while obscuring the details. Complete with screen and convenient handle.
Usage text modified to make sense for MMIs/posibrains, instead of just drone brains (e.g. downloaded → transferred).
Description added to the new intelliCores. Made into normal-sized item, similar to MMIs/posibrains.
This is an alternative to either changing lore to allow for brain uploading, or changing code to allow for choosing multiple AI brain types.
Like plus or ampersand or single or escaped quotes in the name, it goes crazy. You can't remove Socks+Belly because it has a plus, once you've added it. I have no idea why. But here's a quick fix.
So you can customize your character with tattoos or fur colors for Taj or whatever. I'll let Anewbe work out what he wants to whitelist other than what I did already.
The icons are sliced up with the HumanScissors program I wrote, so they are per-organ. So, lop off a limb, put it on someone else, they have the tattoos and whatnot. It's part of DNA so it comes with when cloning.
They are defined in the normal sprite_accessories file and the icons are all in markings.dm in the format of "markingname-organtag" so if you have a marking that spans both arms and torso you need "thatone-torso", "thatone-l_arm", "thatone-r_arm" icon states.
* If a custom item can't be equipped to a character's inventory it is dropped on the ground. For late join characters, equip_custom_item() was called before the mob was placed at their starting locations; their coordinates were still 1,1,1. Which is the edge of a map so they get bounced to another z level.
* Fix: Equip custom items AFTER job_master.LateSpawn places the mob at the starting location, so it flows in same order as roundstart join characters.
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.
Ghosts should be able to hear things once more.
The big bold NEW NEWS notice should remember if one has already seen the news, as the hash was not actually being saved. It's being saved now.
Adds ability for admins with R_SERVER perms to be able to set a persistant 'news' announcement that works similarly to admin memos, but for the public. This is ideal for telling the public things such as when an event is scheduled, directing people to a forum thread, new lore changes, new policies, etc.
The news window allows to define a title, and the body of the text, using an admin verb. The author and date are added automatically.
Any players can read the news window in the lobby. The button will bold itself, and display (NEW!), if the player has not seen the news before. This is done by comparing a hash of the body that the client remembers verses a hash the current news body.
The short naming of central command has been really inconsistent across
the game's files. This has always annoyed the shit out of me.
CentComm and Centcomm and Centcom are now all CentCom, specifically with
that capitalization. Why one M instead of two M's? Because Comm with two
'M's = Communications. Hence, Telecomms, NOT Telecoms. Telecoms is
incorrect. CentCom was also chosen because CentCom with one M and this
casing is most found throughout the game's files.
Speaking of Telecomms, I corrected one instance in the game where it's
Telecom. Like I said, this is not correct. There was only one
inconsistency.
Likewise, Nanotrasen has been changed to NanoTrasen. Nanotrasen only
appears 20 times, where NanoTrasen appears 62. NanoTrasen is clearly the
preferred, correct naming.
