Random lizard bodies will finally have color!
Pushes features almost all the way to the DNA side of thing, the mob side is only needed during character creation.
Note that changes to the save file will invoke a one time per character runtime for legacy characters as the save file purges mutant_color, this is as far as I can tell harmless, has no effect on the player, and is self correcting.
Each portion individually selectable upon character creation, the number of lizard combinations is bordering on absurdist with six customizable fields.
36,864 unique combinations!
(309,237,645,312 If you count color variations)
Never feel like you can't be unique again! Have fun looking fabulous as the crew beats your special little skull in!
- buffed capsaicin/frost oil temperature effects as well as basilisk temperature effect (to counterbalance the recent change in natural bodytemp stabilization). And slight nerf to ghost chili temp boost when held in hand (for consistency). 8501
- fixes religion name choice window labeled as mime name
- fixes nearly invincible larva 9223
- your health/status now updates immediately after taking damage, we don't wait for the next life(). 7031
- Fixes alien nest overlay not updating when dead mob is gibbed by larva exit. 8523
- fixes flamethrower tablecrafting. 9261
- Deathsquad moved from Antagonist to Ghost Roles.
- pAI jobbans split into drone, pAI, and posibrains.
- Posibrains back under pAI preference flag (the byte is full)
- Fixed Posibrain sprite if it fails to get a ghost.
sets every instance of race changes to use hardset_dna instead of directly replacing the datum (needs more testing to be sure I didn't break shit)
removes the invisible man race (aka the generic) and shadowlings from the new green slime mutation toxin while I'm in the area
Fixes an unreported bug where all the lizardpeople were horrifying on the character preview because it wasn't rendering their tains and noses. Incidentally the proc for character previews is horrifying.
Only relevent appearence settings will appear on the appearence screen for each race.
Moves the skin tones selector to the relevent appearence settings area for humans.
Adds a new toggle: Midround_antagonist that allows players to opt out of gaining antagonist through this system if they'd prefer. It defaults to on but is newbie safe because without any antagonist flags (which default to off), it won't place players into antagonist slots.
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
