In cases where you're creating an image to use as an overlay, it makes more sense to use a mutable_appearance if you can. The image will create a static appearance for not just the image but also each intermediate step if you change vars along the way. The mutable appearance avoids this unnecessary and expensive process. The only situation that requires an image instead of a mutable_appearance is if the overlay is supposed to be directional. MA's ignore direction while images don't. I dunno why, probably another BYOND-ism.
I added a convenience function, mutable_appearance(), designed to emulate image(). Also went ahead and set the default plane of /mutable_appearance to FLOAT_PLANE because it's fucking 0 by default.
Several overlays that were image() calls were changed to just text strings when I could. overlays += "string" has the same result as overlays += image(icon, "string") and saves a proc call.
* Plasmamen tongues, plasmaman lung sprites
🆑 coiax, WJohnston
add: Plasmamen lungs, also known as "plasma filters" now look different
from human lungs.
add: Plasmamen now have their own special type of bone tongue. They
still sound the same, it's just purple. Like them.
/🆑
Thanks to @WJohnston for the sprites.
* Actually uses new tongue sprite
* Changes ling brains to be more completely fake
* whoops forgot to convert this
* Fixes cloned changelings having the wrong sort of brain, prevents brains from holding onto brainmobs for too long, renames brains as soon as they're inserted rather than on removal so you can't remove an item called B's brain from A's head
* travis pls fix
* Safeties in case a brain inside someone is destroyed.
obj/on_log changed to atom/on_log. Boolean parameter in
No admin irc message now checked in client/Del instead of mob/Logout
Removed an empty New()
1 -> TRUE
removed a potential crash in mob/Login
So I changed lootspawners to Initialize, which caused some code in
easter.dm to start working and added eggs and baskets to maint loot
table.
- The maintenance loot table is now a global list
- The easter event now modifies that global list.
- Maintenance loot spawners now run on roundstart
