/obj/linked_laser

Vars
is_endpoint	Are we at the very end of the beam, and so watching to see if the next turf becomes free
length	How many laser segments are behind us
max_length	Maximum number of segments in the beam, this exists to prevent nerds from blowing up the server
power	Relative laser power, modified by splitters etc.
sink	A laser sink we're pointing into (null on most beams)
Procs
Crossed	NB: the parent is allowed to qdel src here, so child types should handle being qdeled in Crossed
become_endpoint	Called on the last laser in the chain to make it watch for changes to the turf blocking it
copy_laser	Returns a new segment with all its properties copied over (override on child types)
current_turf_density_change	Something is changing density in our current turf
current_turf_replaced	///////////clusterfuck signal registered procs/////////////// Our turf is being replaced with another
disposing	Kill any upstream laser objects
extend	Set up a new laser on the next turf
is_blocking	Does something block the laser?
next_turf_replaced	The next turf in line is being replaced with another, so check if it's now suitable to put another laser on
next_turf_updated	Something is crossing into or changing density in the next turf in line
release_endpoint	Called when we extend a new laser object and are therefore no longer an endpoint
traverse	Traverses all upstream laser segments and calls proc_to_call on each of them
try_propagate	Attempt to propagate the laser by extending, interacting with sinks etc. Separated from New to allow setting up properties on a laser object without passing them as New args
turf_check	Does anything on a turf block the laser?

Proc Details

Crossed
(/atom/movable/A)

NB: the parent is allowed to qdel src here, so child types should handle being qdeled in Crossed

proc
become_endpoint
()

proc
copy_laser
(/turf/T, dir)

Returns a new segment with all its properties copied over (override on child types)

proc
current_turf_density_change

proc
extend
()

Set up a new laser on the next turf

proc
is_blocking
(/atom/movable/A)

Does something block the laser?

proc

proc
next_turf_updated
()

Something is crossing into or changing density in the next turf in line

proc
release_endpoint
()

Called when we extend a new laser object and are therefore no longer an endpoint

proc
traverse
(proc_to_call)
