* Polaris initial plane upstream merge
* POLARIS: Fix RIG visors with new plane system, and material scanner VIS_FULLBRIGHT
* POLARIS: Fix GetFlatIcon so that cameras and id pictures don't show the HUD overlays.
* POLARIS: Adds a 'alter values' proc for plane master ease of tweaking
Setting stuff like colorblindness variety and things.
* Remove NIF reference, fix lighting layer define
* Handle effects above lighting plane
* Moved all layer defines to planes+layers.dm
* Fixed overlays that are supposed to be above lighting to use the PLANE_LIGHTING_ABOVE
* Merge: 3000% human/update_icons() speed improvement
* Merge: Avoid ghosts pointing at things
Ports an item stack that can be used to mark trails, useful for explorers, miners, and anyone else who doesn't want to get lost or wants to make the room more colorful.
* These aren't supposed to be here!!
* Adds new Security pistol and large capacity magazines
* Removes new pistol from Security spawns
* Removed references of Beretta because it's not one
Because starting money is pretty much all it affects, anyway. Instead of just being used to measure NT's opinion of you, you now choose income categories to fall under. This still affects how much money you start with, with the highest category giving a 1.3x modifier, but the lowest has been lowered to 0.5 times. Now you can start with even less money than before.
Currently doesn't change the "this person might be willing to help you" message for traitors, but it would be easy to do something different with that if requested.
* This is PHASE 1 of a multi-phase conversion. In this first phase we implement the subsystem, but leave it processing the existing global list variables. In the next phase we will switch to use datum variables in the subsystem. The main reason for splitting into two phases is ease of code review; change the meaningful code without the hundreds of machines -> SSmachines.machinery substitutions.
* We did declare macros for adding/removing things to the processing lists, and convert everywhere to use the macros.
* Added var/is_processing to /datum to keep track of whether an instance is already in a processing list (prevents it being in the list twice!) and also debugging, making sure its not in two lists etc.
* NOTE: The global machines list is **no longer sorted** for performance reasons. As far as I know, the only module that actually ever cared was cameras. Our camera system already handles its own sorting in the cameranets anyway, so it should no longer be needed.
Removes the dynamic setting of preload_rsc, because BYOND does not appear to respect it if it's not compiled in, and the dynamic nature of it is unused to my knowledge. If you need to change it, you can change a define in _compile_options.dm
This should now properly set it to '1', which should load all the resources at once, which might make some significant slowdown when first connecting, but should be preferable to constantly getting mini-lags when moving to new areas or hearing new sounds (like when getting shot at!).
* Adds defines for world.tick_usage
* This provides no useful benefit whatsoever, but /tg and Baystation12 have done it, so it will make porting future code easier if we do too. No real harm done either.
Mostly ports /tg/'s method of seeding submaps into specific z-levels.
Due to the low number of submaps present, all of the PoIs are guaranteed to spawn. As more are added, this should fix itself.
Ported 'see-down' open spaces from Vore, who ported it from Eris
Ported talking and visible messages traveling upwards through open spaces
Tested, seems to work? Does not seem to break anything, maybe.
Maybe made a changelog.
New lighting system is needed to handle updating literally 14k+ tiles whenever the sun moves. The straight port seems to have had no adverse effects from what I could see. Don't know if it's more performant but it doesn't seem to be less.
I didn't expect the latter would be needed for the former.
Pink Slime Aura and Mend Synthetic (technomancer) should now fix FBPs again.
Adds procs to get the 'real' number of damage from humans, including limb damage on prosthetic limbs.
Slime following made a bit more robust, slimes (and other simple animals) stop wandering when following.
Slimes following a leader that passes the can_command() check will refrain from attacking things if not attacked first.
Slime kill command implemented, requires the slime to be in your faction or be the slime's friend, and not just obedient. This can be accomplished with end-game slime agents.
Slimes require three 'free' tiles to split, which should prevent super overcrowed cells and by extension avoid Amber Tide from crashing the mob controller.
Dark Blue Cold Aura now properly adjusts temperature based on protection gradually instead of instantly setting to the lowest value.
