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
aka formalizing Human Supremacy
- Adds a config option ENFORCE_HUMAN_AUTHORITY which prevents lizard players from joining Command and Security roles
[Lizard subjugation intensifies]
Adds < and > buttons to character setup screen to easily scroll to next
or previous hair style and facial hair, intead of opening the popup with
a long unsorted list.
Also adds two procs for returning the value of the previous or next
index in a list.
Everyone whose mutant color is set to black is now instead white.
Also, now black mutantcolors are automatically set to the default color
of your species if you select them.
Makes the announcer better in every aspect (less bugs, less fun, more
merging announcement capability)! Also makes it require *just* .Net 4.0
instead of 4.5.
Adds the option for players to disable the PR announcements.
MiniStation is now a single folder which isn't included by default. When you tick the code file for the ministation map, like with tgstation and metastation, it will then include the necessary code files itself. These code files modify certain datums, like jobs, supply packs and uplink datums.
The modified files outside the MiniStation folder are modifications made by the MiniStation branch which aren't changes exclusive to MiniStation.
Such as changing the unused circulator, which only MiniStation used, so that it was fixed and would correctly match the direction of the thermal generator.
The TEG was also changed to have a better interface and to include the above fix.
The department security was changed so it wouldn't runtime if it didn't find a checkpoint.
The preferences' SetChoices was changed so that the screen would automatically grow for every column in the job list.
The main difference between this version and the forked version is that the Unemployed and the Lieutenant was reverted back to their original names; since it would've been a massive pain to add support for that.
Moves the constants from defines and compile_options files into the __DEFINES directory. The compile options in the latter file that are actually tweakable remain in their existing file in the code directory.
Constants from DEFINES.dm, globals.dm, names.dm, and global_lists.dm have been moved into the _globalvars subdirectory.
stylesheet.dm has been moved into the interface directory since that's a better place for it.
This move contains no code changes for stock TG. It is purely an organizational move meant to clean up hard to read code.
Some global constants that appear to be unused have been put into unused.dm, but not unticked. This list is by no means exhaustive.
Branches should be aware that they need to move any additional defines and global constants manually.
Added helper: /proc/findchar(haystack, needles, start=1, end=0)
works like findtext except it finds the first occurrence of one of the characters from the needles string, within haystack.
Permissions can now be removed as well as added, by replacing the + with a -. e.g. +BAN adds bans permissions, -BAN removes them. This applies to admin_ranks.txt and the permissions panel.
Verb overrides are now possible for admins_ranks. Specific verbs can be forced-on, or forced-off via keywords like +/client/proc/mimespeak or -/client/verb/ooc. This applies both to admin_ranks.txt and the permissions panel. SQL system is not compatible.
admin_ranks are now datums. This means admin_ranks actually behave more like permission groups as intended.
When you temporarily modify an admin's permissions via the permissions panel, their rank_name is appended with "([ckey])". This prevents modifications to their rights affecting everyone.
admin rank names now support - _ and @ characters (since ckeyEx() does not strip these).
SQL permissions system was modified. SQL databases will have to be updated or they will no longer work.
WARNING: admin_ranks.txt and admins.txt format has changed slightly! You will need to redo those txt files!
To test: add these debug lines somewhere:
//START COPY PASTE
mob/verb/give_allrights()
src.client.holder.rights = 393087
mob/verb/hasright()
var/hi = input(src,"Choose a file to access:","Download",null) as null|num
var/r = check_rights(hi, 1);
world << "[r]"
mob/verb/checkrights()
for(var/i = 0; i < 32; i++)
var/n = 1 << i
var/r = check_rights(n , 1);
world << "has right 2^[i] = [n]? [r]"
//END COPY PASTE
Start the game, run 'give allrights', which doesn't give all rights, but some of the rights. 128 and 131072 are missing. Then you can either run 'hasright' to check whether you have the permissions that correspond to a user defined number, or you can run 'checkrights' to check for all 31 theoretical permissions.
