SELF Omicron-class cruiser

About The Pull Request

Adds a new SELF ship to the game.

I tested this on localhost and everything works fine, spawning and menu preview image; it spawns, power and atmos work fine as far as i can tell, and there are no glaring errors.

Why It's Good For The Game

Self only has 2 ships; and they are both kind of lacking.
A few changes to Shiptest code have left the Pi-class in a less than desirable state; so i thought i would make my own SELF ship from scratch instead of reworking the old ship.
Primarily, making mecha circuits cost gold and silver disallows the strategy of building a Ripley to mine immediately; which is rather sad for a 'robotics' ship, and especially so when manning the Pi-class without any silicon crew.

To not obsolete the old SELF ship, it is missing the unique hardsuits (techno-pink and ablative) of the 'Pi-class'. Instead it has two more energy swords, a 25% ripley spawner in the Cargo Bay, and ripley construction boards in the Robotics lab. For balance sake, there is not a single ballistic gun onboard this ship, only basic laser guns.

Ossa Map Review:

Critical Issues:

• Ion Engines and Pre-chargers lack cable connections
• • The Pre-charger acts like a mini SMES, and needs a dedicated line to the engine it is intended to power.
• • See other ships

• Debris located in ignored spaces can cause critical failures on the next ship to load, as these items will not be moved with the ship during spawning.
• • If you really do want to keep these, you should place them on a proper area/zoned space and pixel shift them as if they were over nothing.

• Engine shutters are incorrectly ID as "pi_engines_2"

Minor Issues:

• Power lines indended for additional generators are located under a Level 3 pipe. This could be obscured in game depending on layering.

• Engine win doors should appear anchored to a wall when possible.

Thats so far.

Fixed all issues major and minor from what i can tell.

Also, the ship seems to be missing a secondary exit, it probably should have one! Especially near the rear docking port. I am pretty sure all docking ports is supposed to have a corresponding exit. (otherwise ships that are docking onto it will dock onto a wall)

Looking good! It should be available as a TM in the next round.

Oh, wait a moment, is it a bug with the image or is the turret not on anything?

Definitely a bug with the image,

here's in editor.

Yes a bug.

So my picture taker is a strong dmm executable. For whatever reason, some single "end cap walls" (ie walls with only 1 shared side) dont have a proper smoothed tag in their pathing, because of this the strong dmm map maker doesnt understand what to place so we get those graphical issues.

I need to go though and properly document which walls are affected, and create fixes for them in the end. But since this is just an image issue I have not made it a big issue.

Won't have the final map updates in time for the new round, but the commit before it will be in.

After playing this ship i wanted to nerf it a bit, so you now have to build the RND, and there is less food, rechargers and gear.
