When the function is defined inside the ABM, a new closure is allocated every time the ABM runs.
Since the action function is already way too long, it's better for readability and performance to split it out.
Add the EU_string helper function
In comparison to pretty_num it uses SI prefixes, adds "EU" (e.g. kEU) and rounds the number for readability
Add a constant_digit_count boolean setting
and where it is
only prints the warning once per redundant station, per minetest
session. if there are multiple redundant stations on a network, digging
one should cause the warning to appear for the next one technic finds,
if it doesn't show them all right away.
(for situations where a user creates a laggy machine on a public server, use
this to suspend power distribution until the machine is found and disabled)
`/powerctrl off` to disable
`/powerctrl on` to reenable
(actually, anything but "on" disables it)
delete back/bottom texture for power monitor
use "machine bottom" for bottom of force field generator
add cable connection overlay, use it on various machines' bottoms/sides, as appropriate
This fixes several issues:
* More than one switching station could become active on large networks
- Switching stations now semi-permanently become disabled if another is present
- Power monitors have been added to replace the function of "slave" switching stations, to discourage overuse of switching stations
* Networks did not reliably "split" when cutting a cable
- I "may" have caused this issue, but I believe it is solved by this
* Machines did not run without a player near the switching station
- Active switching stations now forceload themselves, and free the forceloaded block if disabled, dug, or disconnected
- Machines are only loaded to run them (as before), so only one mapblock (or two if the bottom edge of the switching station is a mapblock boundary) is loaded
- Cables are still only loaded during a full network recalculation
Changes:
* Make rayIter a global utility, and use it for radiation too.
* prettynum -> pretty_num and cleanup.
* Remove resolve_name/function_exists (unused).
* Cleanup nuclear reactor code.
Don't load the whole digging area when only a small piece is relevant.
Also, move the (time expensive) check whether the air above a block is free to the last position, which spares unneccessary checks when multiple quarries are placed together, or a quarry has to loop over air for another reason.
Override the default mod's iron/steel substance, replacing it with three
metals: wrought iron (pure iron), carbon steel (iron alloyed with a little
carbon), and cast iron (iron alloyed with lots of carbon). Wrought iron
is easiest to refine, then cast iron, and carbon steel the most difficult,
matching the historical progression. Recipes that used default steel are
changed to use one of the three, the choice of alloy for each application
being both somewhat realistic and also matching up with game progression.
The default:steel{_ingot,block} items are identified specifically with
wrought iron. This makes the default refining recipes work appropriately.
Iron-using recipes defined outside technic are thus necessarily
reinterpreted to use wrought iron, which is mostly appropriate.
Some objects are renamed accordingly.
Rather than use the default steel textures for wrought iron, with technic
providing textures for the other two, technic now provides textures for
all three metals. This avoids problems that would occur with texture
packs that provide default_steel_{ingot,block} textures that are not
intended to support this wrought-iron/carbon-steel/cast-iron distinction.
A texture pack can provide a distinct set of three textures specifically
for the situation where this distinction is required.
Incidentally make grinding and alloy cooking recipes work correctly when
ingredients are specified by alias.
