About The Pull Request
This PR adds an alternate objective / goal to the pvp gamemode. Currently implemented by replacing base pvp's, until it is decided whether this is to be a replacement / option / whatever else.
This should not be fullmerged before that is decided.
This new mission leads both vessels to a specific system with a Wormhole Anchor station, where the Syndicate is attempting to stabilize a wormhole into Sol.
Being in this system without the other ship being present for 15 minutes (not neccessarily in a row) leads to victory.
The (automated) anchor station itself cannot be destroyed. By default, it will will fire upon any vessels in system, however getting a lead of at least 3 minutes compared to the other side flips control of it to you.
There is a grace period of 25 minutes between game start and any control starting to lead to timer decrease, as to leave a bit of leeway. Additionally, every 5 minutes of control (or the station having its allegiance overridden) cause an announcement to keep progress obvious (albeit it can also be seen on the comms console).
Of course, as always, simply blowing up the other ship works too.
Aand of course this also fixes / tweaks bits of code, because there's always more to fix.
Why It's Good For The Game
The current pvp objective doesn't really do anything that encourages the mode being "pvp", since nothing you need to do leads to immediate conflict unless you happen to run across eachother.
This is a more focused take that should cause some more direct confrontation.
Testing Photographs and Procedure
I've done basic testing, however as always things may get past me.
Changelog
🆑
add: New pvp objective. Fight for a system where the syndicate is attempting to create a wormhole to Sol.
code: Makes the overmap objective defines not just usable in that single file because that is painful.
code: Moves a bit of roundend nsv change code into an nsv folder so it can use nsv defines.
fix: Overmap gamesmodes no longer do some very evil things (not calling parent on new, for one).
