Moves all opacity var manipulation to a proc which sends a signal.
light_blocker element for movable opaque atoms made, which tracks its movement and updates the affected turfs for proper lighting updates.
has_opaque_atom boolean replaced by the opacity_sources lazylist to keep track of the sources, and a directional_opacity which serves a similar function but also allows for future expansion with on-border opaque objects (not yet implemented).
Some opacity-related sight procs optimized as a result of this.
Some variables moved to the object's definition.
A define or two added into the mix for clarity.
Some code cleaning, like turning booleans into their defines.
One file renamed for clarity.
Changelog
cl
balance: Mechs no longer block sight. It's a non-trivial cost for the lighting system with little to no gain.
/cl
bitflag list construct added: an associative list of bitflags for cheap and quick element comparison between two lists using the same system.
canSmoothWith list turned into a bitflag list.
smoothing_groups list added to substitute the type path list.
smoothing procs turned into atom procs, refactored and optimized a bit.
smooth directions redefined in order to fit in 8 bits for a future smoothing system
some variable names changed, foreseeing a second smoothing system
SMOOTH_OBJ flag added, for things that need to scan turfs for smoothing. The old locate() optimization has the risk of returning false negatives by finding a child and returning null while there might be one of the wanted type as well, as it doesn't match the type exactly.
SMOOTH_TRUE and SMOOTH_MORE condensed into SMOOTH_CORNERS. The old behavior can be replicated using smoothing groups without loss.
Does very minor code cleanup.
Processing-wise didn't find a noticeable difference. The system loses on init a bit by setting the bitflag_lists, and by scanning whole turf contents for object smoothing (increasing accuracy), and gains by making less checks per target to smooth, through the same bitflag_lists.
Memory-wise there should be a small improvement, given that on the old system we had 63512 canSmoothWith lists (a few typelists, most unique), and on this new system canSmoothWith + smoothing_groups are both bitflag_lists from the same pool, totaling 46 in number.
Could be tested a bit to see if I missed any icons not properly smoothing.
About The Pull Request
Makes rails functional in that they can be vaulted from either side, moved, and repaired. Still doesn't add a way to make them.
Why It's Good For The Game
make multiz great
Waiting/working on a few things for the map so I'm just atomizing the few things I'm sitting on so other map makers can take advantage of in the meantime.
* Nanotrasen fires the Wave Motion Gun at the Clock Cult
* Fixes a random changelog appearing from the reebe void.
* Fixes a wrong type reference regarding the bronze sheets in the Lavaland Ruin for it.
* Fixes redundant cells after CC removal in ruin by populating them with varied ore chunks, or destruction clutter.
* why is it /obj/item/stack/sheet/metal but not /obj/item/stack/sheet/iron
* Fixes the lavaland ratvar ruin to have fluff variant structures of deleted shit it referenced instead what I thought was reasonable.
About The Pull Request
Converts every single usage of playsound's vary parameter to use the boolean define instead of 1 or 0. I'm tired of people copypasting the incorrect usage.
Also changes a couple of places where a list was picked from instead of using get_sfx internal calls
This was done via regex:
(playsound\(.+,.+,.+, ?)1( ?\)| ?,.+\)) to match 1
(playsound\(.+,.+,.+, ?)0( ?\)| ?,.+\)) to match 0
full sed commands:
/(playsound\(.+,.+,.+, ?)1( ?\)| ?,.+\))/\1TRUE\2/ 1 to TRUE
/(playsound\(.+,.+,.+, ?)0( ?\)| ?,.+\))/\1FALSE\2/ 0 to FALSE
I'm not very good with regex and these could probably be optimized, but they worked.

add: A giant wad of paper has been seen hurling through the nearby sector of SS13, officials deny existence of giant paper ball hurling through space because 'thats really fucking stupid'.

Mjor the Creative, a wizard with the taste for the arts, has used his magical craft to form a home made of papier-mâché hurling through space because hes a wizard he can do whatever the fuck he wants. He uses his 'artistic' skill to conjure up minions to assist him when nosy people try to steal his priceless art.
He has two abilities he can use during a fight, one will summon copies of himself as mimics. Attacking a mimic does 50 brute to everyone around him and attacking him destroys all active mimics. The other ability lets him summon his crudely-drawn creations, bringing them to life to fight for him.
Killing him gives you access to his papier-mâché robe, a special collector's edition paper, and his priceless range of artwork. What more could you ask for?
The wizard's robe, when equipped, will allow the wearer to summon their own stickman allies. They are only loyal to who summoned them and will attack everything else. Ability has a cooldown between each use.
Boss code credit majority to @RemieRichards as it is a modified version of what she wrote up a couple months ago for one of my unfinished away missions.
