* designs are now using the construction time var and the hacky /obj/item/mechavars is gone
* designs updated : there shouldn't be "no material" designs anymore
* cleaned the objects of their construction_cost and construction_time vars
* fixes the material name being displayed with $ character before
* this also fixes the overlay animation in inserting sheets
* the category var is now a list, so parts can be build/used with several chassis (fixes the Firefighter Chassis appearing when building Ripley)
* properly fix the href vulnerability when emptying (you can now remove all sheets of a materiel at once)
* the exofab now won't create a material sheet if there's not enough material (e.g 1000 metal)
* the exofab now won't accept a sheet if it would overstuff it (losing some material in the process)
* cleaned the code a bit (simplified, streamlined, using global vars, etc)
Finish #5722 and fixes#5954.
Removed the stupid "updateicon()" proc and placed the behavior in update_icons() and regenerate_icons()
Removed redundant update_fire() calls
Fixes#6057 since the staff calls regenerate_icons()
Adds a file called robot_items.dmi. Did some minor tweaks to the borg
goggle/hudglasses sprites to make them look slightly mechanical, and
added a sprite for the electric arm, which is animated, replacing the
old warning triangle sign.
-Using a multitool on a completed cyborg body before inserting the MMI will allow you to set various settings to be transferred to the new cyborg mob
-Removed naming via pens. Naming is now done via debugging.
-Allows roboticists to force a module to load
-Allows roboticists to block ai syncinc and law syncing
-Allows roboticists to toggle the initial lockdown and panel lock state
I also rewrote NEO's note on cyborg objectives since he's never going to fix it now. IT'S A FEATURE.
Your dreams of big part storage and fast machine part exchange came true
14 slot R&D part-only autoseeker/picker/dropper/exchager is in
Added different sprites for better capacitors and scanning modules
Changed the power cell type to be compatible with all this machine
changing faggotry
All sprites here are codersprites so ask nien/WJ for better ones if you
want
Works pretty well. If it can't GC something, it'll just del() it and be done.
Speed is amazing, holy shit.
New procs you should be aware of:
qdel(atom/movable) - sets up an object for garbage collection. Call this rather than del(atom/movable).
atom/movable/Destroy() - called right before the object is GC'd, so it still has a loc. Also called if the object is del()'d.
new controller - garbage.dm has all the details on this. Basically it nulls all references on GC'd objects and force del() them if necessary.
Generally speaking, objects should use Destroy() for behavior prior to deletion rather than Del(). You should also always call the parent so the object gets the right gc_destroyed var set.
ISSUES:
Tries to GC mobs atm. This actually works for new players, not so much for humans/monkies/simple_animals/anything. I'm guessing it needs to clear out their mind and HUD and maybe other things.
Gibbing is really bugged. It works, but the overlays just sit there for awhile and ugh. I'm very tempted just to del() mob/living and mob/camera and call it a day.
qdel() equipment doesn't unequip the item.
Pipes don't generally GC correctly. Debugging suggests they get referenced in many pipenets and that isn't cleared properly. However some do work fine. Need assistance here.
Bots don't GC, probably in the radio controller.
Lots of other shit doesn't GC but it's hard to find them because of the pipe spam.
I think I'm calling Destroy() twice by accident.
