Add new lawsets and reorganise AI upload, the Third #15743
Conversation
I will rewrite the hippocratic lawset soon TM to adress the review, thanks |
Only thing here I don't like is removal of Oxygen is Toxic to humans, and Antimov, and putting all the law circuits in a ID locked smartfridge buffing the need emag even more, unless you can get around the access requirement via hacking it with a screwdriver and multitool. Outside of that I see these changes as a good update. |
The glass window is already pretty strong and mostly requires an emag to get past. Grabbing the modules themselves from AI Upload is also the most rare way of getting AI modules. The most common is to print them out from One of the 3 RnD consoles on the station. 2 of which have circuit fabs, 1 of which does not. |
As mentionned in the PR description, 'They are stored in a RD access vendor (smartfridge subtype) that can be deconstructed/reconstructed, and will drop all boards if deconstructed, allowing access for syndicate or for emergency situations. They can also be emagged or hacked' Those vendors are definitely not hard to crack, and are less secure than the current glass doors if anything. Antimov and oxygen is toxic to crew have no reason to exist in a standard Nanotrasen AI upload facility, immersion wise. Gameplay wise, antagonists will usually get their own law upload setup, and not use the bridge AI upload since it's massively exposed and suspicious to use. If they can print their own boards, they can print those boards if they want to use them. |
Screwdriver, crowbar, screwdriver, wrench, and the window is gone, no need to deal with the door. It being a rare way to get modules is not an argument for removing them.
If the smartfridge drops on decon, then i got no issues with that, however just cause there are more common options, does not justify it's removal. |
Has this changed since the first PR was reviewed? |
Minor code changes to fix issues raised by dearmochi (lazyinitlist removed and \impropers added back to the module names) but other than that, no changes. EDIT : I did adress your first review when you made it |

More variety coupled with the shifting of antag boards to external construction rather than being placed directly next to the AI? Actually not half bad, I'd like to see it in action! 👍
This reverts commit 676bfa7.
Please let me know if you have plans to deconflict this |
Gonna deconflict today/tomorrow, starting now. |

Also requesting clarification on those phantom diffs

@AffectedArc07 Applied requested change, explanation for the virology fridge diff below The new /preloaded subtype is now the one that contains the starting virologist reagent bottles with the refactor to smartfridge in this PR. /virology is now empty. This is an intentional change. |
Fixed my git environment and should hopefully be the last time I have to open a PR for this. Apologies. I've adressed the review by dearmochi on the previous PR (#15692), readding the \improper tags to ai modules and removing the unnecessary list init call.
See first PR with discussion here : #15432
This is ready for merge, although feedback and suggestions concerning the new lawsets is still welcome.
What Does This PR Do
This PR adds new lawsets from tg and reorganise the AI upload on all maps to be easier to use. The glass cages were replaced by vendors (smart fridge subtype) containing the laws, ID locked to RD for experimental laws and Captain for High-Risk laws.
This PR does NOT change any existing lawsets, or which lawsets are default. I might tweak this in a future PR, but I am keeping it out of this one because it's already significantly large.
The smart fridge has been refactored to fix some issues found in testing, mainly with deconstruction. Some of the fridges would drop board with no type properly set. No gameplay changes to existing smart fridges should happen. The virology fridge's type has been changed to the /preloaded subtype on all maps, with no gameplay change (This is to prevent an exploit where you can deconstruct and reconstruct the viro fridge to get the base contents back with the new code)
You can now examine AI lawset boards to read the laws that you are going to upload.
I have not touched anything that involves RND in the current PR to avoid conflicts with techwebs. Once techwebs are merged I'll do the necessary changes to integrate it, either in this PR or a new one.
New lawsets
CCTV
Hippocratic Oath
Station Efficiency
Peacekeeper
NT Aggressive - Not new but now available in AI upload
TYRANT - Not new but now available in AI upload
AI upload reorganisation
The AI upload has been remapped. There's now 3 categories of laws, each with their own required access.
Low-risk laws : These laws present little risk to upload, reset just removes non-core laws and will not touch the base lawset. They are free to access on the AI upload tables.
Crewsimov - Unchanged
Corporate - Unchanged
NT Default - Unchanged
Reset - Unchanged, remove non-core laws
Experimental laws : These laws are restricted to RD access as they may be dangerous to use in some situations. They are stored in a RD access vendor (smartfridge subtype) that can be deconstructed/reconstructed, and will drop all boards if deconstructed, allowing access
for syndicate scumfor emergency situations. They can also be emagged or hacked.CCTV - Journalist/Stalkery AI.
Hippocratic Oath - Do no harm, help the crew where you can, do not reveal the crew's secrets.
Station Efficiency - Maintain the efficiency of the station and its crew, obey crew orders if they do not go against efficiency.
Paladin - Unchanged
Peacekeeper - Do not cause conflicts, do your best to resolve conflicts.
Quarantine - Unchanged
Robocop - Unchanged
High-Risk Laws : These laws are restricted to Cap access and also come in a vendor. These may be situationally useful but they are usually best left untouched.
Freeform - Unchanged, add any law.
Freeform Core - Unchanged, add any core law.
Nanotrasen Aggressive - Unchanged but now available in upload, do not harm crew unless they directly threaten you, obey crew orders according to rank, protect yourself lethally, terminate all intruders.
One Crew - Unchanged, sets a person to be the only crew on station.
Protect Station - Unchanged, anyone that damages the station is not crew and must be neutralised.
Purge - Unchanged, removes all laws.
Tyrant - Unchanged but now available in upload, respect AUTHORITAH
Oxygen is toxic to humans and Antimov have been removed from the AI upload as those arent just high-risk they're downright suicidal. They can still be printed at RND.
Why It's Good For The Game
More variety in available lawsets will make playing silicons and command more interesting. I think NT Aggressive and TYRANT are interesting enough to have available in upload under captain access, letting command experiment with them if they are daring enough to do so.
The new access restriction on laws are more sensical, and will better indicate to Command which laws are safe to upload and which arent. Freeform is currently sitting on a table... when it's by definition the most dangerous board since it can be anything else. Protect station is also freely available when it's insanely dangerous.
The circuit container is much more convenient to use than the glass cages.
You can now read lawsets directly in game in the AI upload instead of having to check the wiki.

Changelog
🆑
tweak: You can now examine a law upload board to read its lawset.
add: Added circuit storage containers, can be constructed with a smartfridge board by screwdriving it.
tweak: Reorganised the AI upload using circuit storage containers instead of glass cages. Access required for laws was also updated. Can be bypassed by deconstructing the container to get the boards.
fix: Fixed some smartfridge subtypes not deconstructing properly.
add: Added new lawsets available in the AI upload experimental lawset container : CCTV, Hippocratic Oath, Station Efficiency, and Peacekeeper.
add: TYRANT and NT Aggressive lawsets are now available in the high-risk container in AI upload.
del: Oxygen is toxic to humans and Antimov have been removed from AI upload. They can still be printed.
