Instances where the game would give special treatment to MODE players will instead check to see if a player's assigned_role (job) matches their special_role (antag status). All antags that start off station (as well as ninjas for some weird reason) were affected.
Fixes#8743
Players who would otherwise qualify to play as an implanted job will spawn as the most wanted not implanted job they qualify for if they are an onstation antagonist. If they don't qualify for any job in this way depending on preferences they will either spawn as an assistant or a random job (which also makes sure they don't end up in an incompatible job).
Note this doesn't impact late join antagonists or mulligan antagonists. Roundstart only.
**Major Changes**
- Increased win condition to require 66%
- Added a switchblade. A relatively cheap and decently robust melee weapon for gangsters.
- Capped how much influence you can get every income at 50
- Limited gang spraycan use to 15
- Pistol cost increased to 30 Influence
- Promotion cost now scales to how many bosses you already have. The more bosses, the more expensive it will be. It starts off cheap at 20 influence now.
**Minor Changes**
- Tagging a territory now tells you what territory you actually tagged!
- Added an option to silence the verbose territorial updates you get from gangtools
- Capped how much influence you can get every income at 50
- Updated Centcom report on gangs
- Spraycans always show their inhands now, instead of only when uncapped
- Antag panel now shows how much influence each gang has
- Cleaned up gang code in the traitor panel
- Fixed non-gangers getting gang messages when trying to spray on an invalid territory
The coding isn't done yet, but the design is. So comment on the design while I smooth out the code.
tldr; Gang mode rewrite to follow my original vision: Slower and longer rounds with less deathmatching, and a resource both teams have to fight over
NEW OBJECTIVE: CLAIM HALF THE STATION AS TERRITORY
- Gang bosses can spawn special spray cans that can be used to tag areas
- Any gang member can tag areas.
- Gang tags must be removed before another one is placed in the same area
- Game mode no longer automatically ends when the boss dies. It now ends when either the station evacs, or one gang claims more than 50% of the station areas
- Boss can promote gangers into his lieutenants, which basically means adding more bosses
- Lieutenants can do anything bosses can except promote others to lieutenant
NEW RECRUITMENT TOOL: PENS
- Recruitment pens replace flashes
- Looks exactly like a pen. Stab people to recruit them.
- Recruitment is silent but obvious to the perceptive (Causes a brief seizure)
- Cooldown between uses that gets longer as the gang gets larger
NEW TOOL: GANGTOOL
- Replaces the recaller device. Can still recall the shuttle.
- Provides overview information about the gang (membership size, income amount and time)
- Can spawn pistols and ammo
- Can spawn additional recruitment pens
- Can spawn additional gangtools (For personal use, or promoting a single ganger to lieutenant)
NEW CURRENCY SYSTEM: NAME IS WIP
- Gangtools purchase items with new currency with the placeholder name "Supply Points (SP)"
- Supply points are collected every 5 minutes. The more territory a gang has claimed, the more points they get.
- Supply points are accumulated per-gang. Having more gangtools does not intrinsically give you more points to use.
I'm going on vacation soon so I thought I might as well bring this game mode back up to at least a minimally functional state before I go.
A lot of features (Gang membership visibility, conversion pens, weapons, deconversion methods) have been stripped out for now. I gave gang bosses uplinks in the meantime.
It's basically rev vs rev right now, but the victory conditions with the recallers are still there. I'll work on adding more stuff after I return from my vacation.
Sometimes admins want to change someone's antag type or simply refresh their antag status to fix bugs, while still preserving their objectives. Being forced to lose them makes these really frustrating to do!
Admins can still manually remove their objectives from the same window (Mind Window/Traitor Panel).
Misc:
+Fixes unreported issue with initializing lighting on a specific zlevel
+Fixes two similar issues with moveElement and moveRange. Where fromIndex or toIndex could be adjusted incorrectly in certain conditions. Potentially causing bad-sorts, or out of bound errors.
+Rewrites listclearnulls(list/L) to no longer iterate through L.len elements for every null in the list (plus 1). i.e. went from L.len*(number_of_nulls+1) list-element reads (best-case), to L.len list-element reads (worst-case)
+New proc/getElementByVar(list/L, varname, value) which finds the first datum in a list, with a variable named varname, which equals value. You can also feed it atoms instead of lists due to the way the in operator functions.
+Fixes an unreported issue with Yota's list2text rewrite. Under certain conditions, the first element would not be converted into a string. Causing type-mismatch runtimes.
+New global map_ready variable. This is not fully implemented yet, but will be used to avoid duplicate calls to initialize() for map objects.
+All turfs now maintain references to all lights currently illuminating them. This will mean higher memory use unfortunately, due to the huge number of turfs. However, it will speed up updateAffectingLights significantly. I've used list husbandry to reduce baseline memory usage, so it shouldn't be any worse than some past atmos modifications memory-wise.
-Removed 'quadratic lighting', can add this back at some point. Sorry.
+modified the way lum() works slightly, to allow turfs to have overridden delta-lumen. i.e. space cannot be illuminated more than its default ambiance. This allowed removal of some iffy special-snowflake lighting areas implemented by somebody else.
+Lighting images in the dmi can now use arbitrary naming schemes. It is reliant on order now. This allows the dmi to be replaced by simply dropping in a new dmi.
-Removed all subtypes of /area/shuttle. Shuttles now create duplicate 'rooms' of /area/shuttle. (More on this later). This will conflict with most maps. Guide on how to fix to follow.
+All verbs/tools relating to world.tick_lag were refactored to use world.fps. However old config text for setting tick_lag will still work (it converts the value to fps for you)
+MC stats improved using smoothing. They now have their own tab so they dont get in the way when you're playing as an admin.
-removed the push_mob_back stuff due to conflicting changes. Sorry Giacom.
_OK, NOW THE ACTUAL INTERESTING STUFF_
Following systems moved over to subsystem datums:
air_master
garbage_manager
lighting_controller
process_mobs (aka Life())
nanomanager
power
sun
pipenets
AFK kick loops
shuttle_controller (aka emergency shuttle/pods), supply_shuttle and other shuttles
voting
bots
radio
diseases
events
jobs
objects
ticker
Subsystems hooks and variables should be commented fairly in-depth. If anything isn't particularly clear, please make an issue.
Many system-specific global variables have been refactored into
All tickers which previously used world.timeofday now use world.time
some subsystems can iterate before round start. this resolves the issue with votes not working pregame
Moves antag_hud image and datum to mind instead of mob.
Fixes mobs keeping data HUDs after transfer_to().
Fixes gibbed bodies losing their antag HUDs.
Fixes the data hud disappearing when dropping unrelated HUDs.
Fixes#6206Fixes#6209
Makes hud_list associative, and introduces the /atom list hud_possible,
which lists all the possible hud images a certain atom can provide.
Replaces all the awful procs in the gamemodes with their new
/datum/atom_hud versions, which are much shorter, simpler and faster.
a disease may now have more than one spread type
added "infectivity" variable which replaces a prob(65), defaults to 65
affected_species is now viable_mobtypes, and lists typepaths, this is due to us actually having a species system now so it's confusing
adds defines for a bunch of stuff
- Reworded intercept report to discourage security from inadvertently causing a gang to win.
- Recaller use is logged
- Made the text explaining membership visibility more visible
The first of many. Most caused by horrible merge-related accidents.
- Gang converts are no longer revolutionaries
- Revolution controls show up in the TP again
- Gang added to game_options.txt defaulting to 0
- Clarified some help text strings
