- Instead of independently spawn'd while/sleep loops, it stores its state and lets the MC fire it.
- Convert relative path indentation procs to absolute path as per modern style standards.
- Break apart the inner loops into separate procs so you can see what is actually going on.
- It now shows up in MC tab, along with stats about what phase it is in.
For SPEEDYNESS
It probably works. I mean it's hard to sit there for 8 hours and test it. But it seems to work okay. At worst if it doesn't you'll have weather that doesn't make sense. ;v
Controller with deferrals and SCHECKs to be specific. Won't lag while updating the sun, weather, or temperature.
Also moved some vars around. Namely the planet walls are stored on the planet, not in the weather_holder.
Planets now have their own turfs, the controller 'gives' them to the planets each cycle if there are any unallocated turfs in the global lists, to avoid iterating over other planets' turfs if you have more than one, then cuts the lists if you were crazy and some turf added some invalid type. This saves us type-checking in the for() loops later to make them crunch faster. The former operation should only happen once at the start of the game (and maybe very rarely when turfs are added/removed from a map during the game).
With regards to the temperature updates, rebuilding the zone entirely is an intensive operation. Instead we can use this new cheaty proc to do it from over here. ZAS code outside ZAS oh noooo. Well, the option is to snowflake this case into ZAS which is maybe worse?
Only downside to all this is that if you manually set weather and time it might take between 1-60 seconds for the controller to get around to checking if you wanted to update it. That's not that big a deal. If you really want you can now debug that controller and call doWork on it.
* Adds a verb for debugging any of the running process controllers. Unlike the old debug controller verb, this one is not hard coded, so any present and future processes will be included. Requires R_DEBUG (and R_ADMIN if in paranoid mode)
* Adds a verb for debugging the process scheduler itself. This is hidden by default until debug verbs are shown. Requires R_DEBUG (and R_ADMIN if in paranoid mode)
Absolute pathing, overall cleanup.
Removed two useless vars, simplified process().
Defines instead of strings.
Added "unvote" option that removes your vote.
Vote window now sized according to amount of options.
Added vote controller to debug controller list.
Created a global list to track base turfs for explosions/shuttle moves.
Remaps the asteroid to be a moonlet. Tidies up some references to 'asteroid', removes moonbase from the accessible z level list.
Alters the event controller based on http://baystation12.net/forums/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=10706.
Exception is that there is always some start time variance to prevent metagaming.
Mundane, moderate, and major events run on their own timers and start and run independantly of each other.
Multiple events of the same severity degree can run at the same time. However, currently only one instance of the same event can be active at a time.
Moves all ferry shuttle processing into one place: the new shuttle
controller.
Also cleans up the emergency shuttle controller a bit more and fixes
multi-shuttle cooldown.
