The default falloff value for sounds is 0.5 (lower means quieter).
There was only 3 things ingame with a sound falloff of a whole whopping 5 (10x)
These things were explosions, telepads, and instruments.
One had a volume of 25%, another one had a volume based on distance threshold, and you can probably guess which one of the bunch had a hardcoded 100% volume.
* Adds marble floor tiles and crafting recipe
* swaps screwdriver removal for crowbar
* changelog fix
i'm a silly goose and forgot to edit out the screwdriver bit
This adds throw_alert() and /obj/screen/alert, a system that allows you to do custom hud alerts for any variety of things from "You're too cold!" to mecha status indicators for the pilot.
There's quite a few things that actually got replaced; the
fire/oxy/tox/co2 alerts are all now just alerts, as is nutrition. There's also a number of new alerts, such as blindness, highness, legcuffed, buckled, handcuffed, and probably some more I missed; read code/_onclick/hud/alert.dm and see for yourself!
Additionally, a number of tweaks have been done to resisting code, to make it so that there's an indicator when you're buckled or handcuffed, and can just click the alert to start resisting. This includes a refactor that combines the logic for lockers, holders all into one proc, called container_resist().
Also, the health and internals indicator got moved down one tile each. Needed room for the alerts. If we add the oxygen tank action buttons from /tg/ and remove the internals indicator, the health indicator can go back where it was originally.

- Instead of using auto_use_power to re-tally up machinery's power usage every cycle, track the steady "static" load separately from the transient "oneoff" usage. Machines then only need to inform the area when they use oneoff power or *change* their steady usage.
- Remove auto_use_power and stop SSmachines from calling it.
- Add vars to track "static" usage for each of the three power channels to /area
- Rename the existing three vars to "oneoff" so its clear what they mean (and to catch people accidentally updating them directly)
- Update area power procs and APCs to use the new variables.
- Rename /area/proc/use_power() to use_power_oneoff() to make it clear what it is doing.
- Deprecate /obj/machinery/use_power() in favor of use_power_oneoff() but don't delete yet. Can transition gradually.
- Add logic to the update_power procs on machines to calculate the deltas and update static area power whenever their usage changes.
- Add logic to machines to update area power when they are created, destroyed, or move.
- Moved /obj/machinery procs related to area power usage into machinery_power.dm to make them easier to find.
- Added or updated comments in several places to explain what is going on and how to use it.
