* Adds "typecache" utility functions. A fast way to filter lists by type.
Ported from TG
* Ports the "orbit" feature and subsystem from TG
* Adds a feature that allows mobs and objs to "orbit" around some atom. They literally are moved around in circles. See the `orbit` proc in orbit.dm.
* Adds a subsystem that processes the actual movement of orbiting items.
* Adds utility methods for common machinery behavior.
* Adds default_unfasten_wrench which handles the standard anchor/unanchor behavior of wrenches being used on machines. Together with the other default_x_tool machinery procs we can eliminate having that code duplicated in dozens of places!
* Adds is_wire_tool proc to easily detect when a machine is hit with a tool that should open its wires UI (if it has one).
Based on ideas from Paradise, with improvements for us.
* Implements the Tesla Engine
Ported from a mixture of TG and Paradise code and assets: Edison's Bane
Includes the tesla energy ball itself, the generator that makes it, tesla coils, grounding rods, the circuits and frames to build them.
* Switch dusting to zapping on impact and spin better
Ported /tg SpinAnimation which supports more than triangles.
* Multiple loadout slots
Ported from Bay. Each character can have 3 (number can be overridden by config) loadout slots. This way, you can have different outfits for different situations without needing to have a separate character slot or edit your loadout every time.
Tested here, works as intended. The current loadout is set as slot 1, so you don't need to worry about remaking it. This also ports the to_file and from_file macros to make it work, I'm assuming they could later be used elsewhere as well.
* Log of Changing
* Make Singulo Stable Again
* Prevents emitter beam effects from being pulled by singulo. Now watch them hit the field gens.
* Prevent singulo from consuming the PA particle effects. It already gets fed by impact, don't try to eat them.
* Improve the Setup Singularity debug verb to do more better setup (including PA)
* Fix the energy dissipation values so that singularity does not just keep on growing even when setup properly.
* Enhance singularity proc/eat()
* Use `var/simulated` as a more generic way to ignore lighting overlays etc
* Remove redundant code in the rest of the proc body.
* Slight optimization: avoiding typecheck in loop over return from orange()
* 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.
Mobs now have the ability to "crawl" to an adjacent turf by click-dragging themselves to it. This would allow people unable to stand to still move around, though very slowly. You could also do this to other movable mobs or objects, if you really wanted to.
Moving this way takes about 2.5 seconds, plus half a second for each point of weakness you have. For a person missing a leg, this would take 5 seconds. It only works if the mob doing this is alive, conscious, unrestrained, not stunned or paralyzed, and in an area with gravity - no crawling through space.
Mobs lying on the ground - again, with similar restrictions - are now able to buckle themselves to chairs or beds. For people missing legs or feet, this means no more being stuck helpless on the ground forever because Baldie McGreytide clicked on your wheelchair.
Tested in many different situations, and I've patched every bug that popped up.
This increases the number of stored camera locations the AI can have at one time, from 10 to 30. This is mostly a quality-of-life update in preparation for the new map, as its multiple floors make navigating around the station as the AI more difficult.
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.
