s = Speedloaders. (Functionally the same as clips, but they're not
_really_ the same thing, just in case we change these later.)
c = Clips. (Can also be used to fill other magazines.)
m = Magazine. (Holds ammo rounds.)
a = Ammo. (Individual rounds of ammo.)
* The performance of the radiation controller as-is was not fast enough for inclusion in production servers, but it has some nice featuers, so rewrote it to be more performant.
* Instead of storing the radiation strength for every turf, we only store the sources of radiation, and calculate the strength only for mobs who might be in range.
* Old method was ray-tracing to every turf in range whether anything was there to be irradiated or not. Could be hundreds of turfs. New method only lazily calcualtes strength at a turf if we actually need to know it. Often times this is zero turfs if nobody is standing in engineering.
* Removed the automatic processing of objects with "rad_power" set. Objects are responsible for calling the repository to create/update their radiation sources. Saves some extra overhead that in practice was redundant with other process controllers.
* Also tweaked to be more respectful of qdel'd objects and added some comments.
Fixes runtime when screwdrivering the defib to remove the powercell.
Husked people can no longer be revived. This is because otherwise they could become alive again but remain husked.
Jams the three devices that I'm aware of that use subspace communications: Headsets, PDAs, and Communicators.
All three will be unable to communicate if in range of a jammer. The default range is 7 turfs, the battery that comes in the jammer is a weapon cell (just to make it a little harder to find replacements) and lasts 60 seconds. The range and power use are variables.
Speaking through a headset will produce 'soft' or 'loud' static depending on how far you are, allowing you to sort of dead-reckon your way to a placed jammer. You can just carry them, otherwise.
I've got no experience with adding tator items so I'll leave that sort of thing up to you guys.
* 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.
Drone FBPs now spawn with an EIO issued ID alongside their NT ID card.
Also makes the bartender's permit automatically name itself when created by the job_controller.
Adds a fairly simple system that allows adjusting various numbers like max health, incoming damage, outgoing melee damage, etc. The nice part is that changing certain variables this way (like max health) is a lot safer than manually setting the max health var directly.
Changes a lot of short lines of code to point towards a variable's getter or setter helper instead of reading the var directly so the modifiers can work.
Endoarmor, delayed toxin sting, Enfeebling sting, and recursive adrenaline overdose now use the modifier system.
Enfeebling sting now only lasts two minutes, from five minutes, however it now also reduces the victim's melee damage by 25%/50%, and increases the damage they suffer by 10%/35%, for normal and recursive respectively.
Delayed Toxin Sting's effects are now felt all at once instead of over the course of a few minutes.
