Basically, they key difference between StonedMC and CarnMC is that when multiple ticks want to run at the same byond tick, we divvy up the tick between the subsystems, rather then allow one subsystem to hog it all.
The key difference between StonedMC and GoonPS is that we allow the subsystems to tell us how to divvy up the tick using flags and priority.
The new SS_ flags allows us to select behaviors that used to be piggybacked as side effects of dynamic wait or default but sometimes unneeded behavior.
Dynamic wait is 100% gone, lower priority and SS_BACKGROUND are better more refined ways of doing this when combined with MC_TICK_CHECK
I have by design never looked at the inners of goonPS, so this is all original code but I know it uses two loops because of comments by goon devs on reddit threads, that design didn't make sense before, but when I can tell a SS how much of a byond tick it is allowed to have, knowing how many need to run this tick is helpful I also know a bit more about how it works from piecing together comments in #vgstation.
Detailed list of changes:
Subsystems now have flags, allowing fine grain control over things like rather or not it processes, inits, rather it's wait is how long between runs (post run timing) or how long between starts, and rather or not late fires should cause the next fire to be earlier.
Mc now has two loops One loop handles queuing shit, one loop handles running shit.
MC now splits up tick allotment rather than first come first serve Subsystems can even request a bigger share using higher priorities. (It will even resume subsystems it paused if other subsystems hadn't used as much as it predicted they might need)
Default fps is now 20 This is related enough to the MC and it's a change that's really long since over due
All code oddities are most likely to be necessities to lower overhead on the mc since it runs every tick
This setup allows subsystems to pause themselves until next mc fire if they are about to go over a tick, and resume on the next mc tick
It also makes it so we prioritize running subsystems we skipped because there wasn't enough time in the current tick to run them based on their avg tick usage. (as well as subsystems paused mid way thru)
Adds a macro for adding this to non-mc procs. just drop it in the loop. There is a define version as well for if checks if you want to know if you just slept to avoid lag.
This is all inside #if DM_VERSION defines, so once i test that 509 still works to compile/test this should be good to merge
Fixes the mc getting all fucked up during midnight rollover
Mc now tracks the tick_usage of every subsystem, and will skip running an expensive subsystem if we are too close to overrunning in a tick, waiting until next tick, unless that subsystem is excessively past due (because we kept skipping it).
It now assumes that 20% of a tick should be saved for byond to do it's things, and stops running all subsystems once we get to 80% tick usage.
Dynamic wait will only smooth out wait changes over 8 fires if the new wait is lower than the old wait, before it would smooth out wait increases as well as decreases.
The fps throttle system is now 509 only.
The mc will now run every 1ds, no GCD bullshit, as we want to spread things out more.
Offline subsystems will still show their stat message
DS is now rounded to 2 digits, not 3, to make room for the tick percentage bit, and because the 3rd digit was useless and all MoE
