MC:
No longer tracks a subsystem's cpu usage. This was basically worthless and took up space on the stat panel
Can calculate wait down to a tenth of a decisecond to make it fps/world.ticklag agnostic
Now allows subsystems to have a dynamic wait, that is based on a ratio of how long that subsystem has been taking to process(cost). (This system allows for upper and lower bounds, and an changeable cost delta for each subsystem)
MC can now be told to init a zlevel
All Subsystems:
Stats panel now allows child subsystems to pass it a message to add to its stats entry. All subsystems have been moved over to this system - This should cut down on subsystems having to copy and paste the stats proc in order to add to it
All subsystems now properlly handle being given a zlevel in their init proc
Subsystem changes:
Air:
Added air to the dynamic wait subsystem. upper bound: 50, lower bound: 5, cost delta: 3 times process cost
Air now fires 4 times faster when it can do so without lagging things up
Pipenet has been merged into air
Atmos machinery now processes with process_atmos(), ticked by air, not machinery.
Hotspots (the fire object) are now object pooled
Pipenet:
Deleted, added to air
Machinery:
Moved all atmos calcualtions in all objects's process() to process_atmos().
Lighting:
Added Lighting to the dynamic wait subsystem. upper bound: 20, lower bound: 5, cost delta: 3 times process cost
Ticker:
Fixed ticker not updating the lobby panel when game start delayed
Fixed the game start timer updating rapidly from queued fires when game start delay is removed
Garbage/qdel:
qdel will now limit its process time to 2ds a fire.
qdel can now be given hints as a return to Destroy() as to what should be done with the object.
the options are:
queue: (default) this is the normal behavior.
letmelive: old default to non-null/zero. does nothing with the object
iwillgc: functionally the same as above, mainly to let people working with objects know that the object will not be queued for GC checking
harddel: this will queue the object to be deleted without storing a soft reference, mainly to save locate() processing time.
harddel_now: this will del() the object. To allow for a clean removal of every del() not in qdel
All objects have been updated to the new system, harddel and iwillgc was not added to any new objects.
Fixed some objects not GCing because they didn't properlly clear references in Destory()
Fixed some objects getting qdel'ed preventing other objects from getting GCed because they did not null their reference to that object.
Fixes unreported compile issue for Ministation to do with setting up map transitions
Removes /obj{name="floor"} which somehow appeared on the map.
Resolves issues with ministation which were previously resolved for tgstation
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
Removes a version of atom/movable/Move() that was in mob_movement.dm.
New proc called newtonian_move() that's called as a result of things like shooting a gun or spraying a fire extinguisher and as part of atom/movable/Move().
It pushes src if it's not under gravity and gives the object a chance to stop itself.
As a result, inertial_drift() is kill.
Moved Process_Spacemove() out to atom/movable. It does the same thing, it's called whenever a drift is attempted and stops the drift if it returns 1. Default check is to look for nearby lattices to make dragging shit around the station less annoying. Mobs still call it in Client/Move()
The mob version of Process_Spacemove() will shove non-anchored nearby objects out of the way if you try to move like that. For example if you're free-floating in space next to a closet and try to move right, the closet will drift off to the left.
Mechs call their occupant's version of Process_Spacemove() so mining with a mech isn't retarded. The pussy wagon does the same thing and thus no longer works like a jetpack. Will it be making a comeback?!?! (no)
Any move will attempt to keep dragging your pulled object, not just ones initiated by the client. Should make space wind a little less annoying. Was needed to make drifting not break your drags.
Mechs drift correctly without any special snowflake crap.
Spaceslipping is gone because fuck that shit
Space movement is now slow instead of fast. Having a jetpack helps go faster but even that's slower than current. Hopefully means nuke ops can see each other as they move to the station instead of losing sight of each other instantly. Having your hands full makes spacemovement even slower.
You can drift in office chairs and drag mobs in beds or the bed itself. Currently drifting diagonally while in an office chair is bugged and I need help to solve it. It winds up in cardinal movement instead of a diagonal one.
Changes up the jetpacking effects system to cause fewer errant ion trails but it's still awful code. In hindsight I shouldn't have bothered but here we go.
This means away missions don't have space transitions
* The setup_map_transition proc is protected from excessive tiles proceeding (the proc is set to the background if too much tiles are processed)
* Added a comment explaining the Space Cube, by Incoming
* Fixes#4903 : "mobs don't maintain momentum on z-level transition"
* Serendipitiously fixes#2614
Meta/Mini should add empty z.7 at some point after this pull is committed, I would have done so myself but it didn't play nice with mapmerge so I decided against it.
The layout of the accessible z levels in relation to each other are now lain out in a massive preshuffled SPACECUBE. Every Z-level is no more than two screens from every other Z-level, and can be moved through in a predictable order* with a little ingenuity
*Except z.6
See pull for the full details
-Removed check for infrared beams. (it checked each time that anything moved)
-Removed 'movement_disabled' check, the verb is also completely removed.
For space Entered() turfs:
-Removed check for meteor
Now meteors and immovable rods will use the same proc to determinate their start and finish, while moving they'll check in which z level they are, deleting themselves if they leave it.
-Removed spawn() to move objects being pulled between z levels
Replaced the step() from mob pulling movement code and replaced them with Move()
For asteroid Entered turfs:
-Removed check for mining cyborgs, now it will be next to the janitor borg check to clean the floor.
Mecha code got a small clean, removing the Entered() calls from there.
