Telecommunication interruption no longer permanently disables the ability for synths to state laws if they attempt it during the downtime.
If a synth attempts to state laws during telecommunication interruption it now receives a clear feedback message about its impossibility.
Fixes runtime errors when AIs uses shortcut keys to operate APCs/turret controls when the corresponding window isn't open.
Adds missing AI-restriction check for turret controls.
Airlocks no longer lie about dropping bolts when they cannot be dropped.
Continues the wiring upgrade. Now cameras, airlocks, robots, and air alarms also use the new wire datum system.
Global wiring code is now removed but there are sneaky objects which didn't rely on them such as mulebots and autolathes.
Fixes a few issues from the previous upgrade.
Previously missed Z-level checks in the form "z != X". Utilized this regex which hopefully has cought most of them [zZ](\s?)(!?)=(\s?)(\d+).
Adds more Z-level configuration, admin levels.
Now possible to configure 3 different kind of Z-levels.
Station levels: Which Z-levels the station exists on.
Contact levels: Which Z-levels are typically affected by, for example, Code Red which alters the visual state of fire alarms.
Player levels: Which Z-levels a character can typically reach.
First pass on major conversion of xenomorphs to a human subspecies. Additional condensing of various redundant mob verbs.
Converted larva and diona to their own class, collapsed the rest of xenomorphs into a human species, other stuff.
Completely removed attack_alien(). Still have to reimplement some of the lost behavior for human/alien.
Reapplies lost attack_alien() functionality other than tackling/caressing.
Further alien/humanoid cleanup and xenospawn fix-ups. Also uncommented caste verbs.
Removed half-finished abilities system since species.dm handles it.
All xenomorphs functionality should be working now, other than the HUD, tackling and the xenomorph balance issues.
Added icons for xenomorph castes, moved broadcast languages into datums, removed alien_talk and robot_talk vars.
Merged with organ removal code.
Reapplied verbs to simple_animals/slimes. Updated species definitions to have appropriate organs.
Readded tackle as a human verb.
Borer changes regarding brain removal.
Working on moving the human HUD to the species datum a bit. Mixed results.
Moved Cortical Link to a language, added borer husks.
Tidied up the HUD stuff. Still need to make it rebuild properly when species is changed, but this will do for no
Compile fix, forgot the DME.
Fixed up ventcrawl, added new organ mechanics for dionaea.
Fixed up some overlooked sections causing mobs without brains to die immediately.
Fixed up plasma generation for queens, bugs with organs, force_organ issues with set_species().
Makes APCs with different cells specific types.
Replaces arrival's APC with a higher-capacity cell variant to avoid people being unable to leave due to power failure at 12:15.
The engine core now begins without oxygen but still requires cooling and everything else.
- Cleanup of SMES attackby() code
- Buildable SMESs now have option to override safety circuit by using multitool while the hatch is open.
- Disabling safeties lets you disassemble SMES even if it's charged above 1%.
- If charge is above 5% stored energy may discharge violently. This is percentage based (more energy = higher chance of this occuring + more severe consequences)
- Larger discharges affect whole powernet, burning out some lights and even completely destroying APCs!
- Substation PSUs act as surge protection. Thus, if set up properly damage is limited to few areas which are directly on the main grid (= maintenance mostly)
- STILL NEEDS TESTING. Pushing so other people can review the code and give further suggestions. And because i need to access it on second computer.
This was probably bound to happen either way the previous version was based upon a faulty understanding of how the areas worked this is much more robust and only messes with the master areas
and master areas needing power updates call power updates for the each of it's child areas. Also added where messing with SMESes called for an update on all areas power consumption, probably
not required but doing so either way.
We also rebuild the active_areas list every 5 minutes, if you get a engineer that wants to build a new area off of the station with APC's set rebuild_all_areas in the master controller and it will
update instantly, otherwise wait 5 minutes. The only downside to this 5 minutes is you might get free energy until that area becomes active.
We no longer run auto_use_power() on every machine every tick.
We now have a global list of areas, and areas that have an APC in them (all_areas and active_areas) no more looping through world bullshit.
A bunch of snowflakey as fuck machines won't use_power() in their process, you get two options, active and idle, use them!
This means a lot of machines won't double dip on power as well so power usage for the station has dropped about 20%
Because everything is snowflakey as fuck we're going to have some machines that don't force an update on their power usage. Fuck them.
We should catch them with the root obj/machine/proc's forcing updates.
Before: If you turned off the breaker and fiddled with on/off states and turned on the breaker it wouldn't update the overlay because the check_updates wasn't doing an if(operating) check and would think it didn't need to update the overlays once you turned on the breaker.
After: Check_update() is doing a check for the breaker being on or off and taking that into account with the update_overlay flags and will update the overlays properly.
Thanks Razharas from /tg/ #coderbus for bringing this to my attention.
