Offshore Gas Drilling and Pumping

[whatston3]

About the PR

The goals of this PR are as follows:

1. Enable gas transfer between grids.
2. Add a source of large amounts of gas on the main map.
3. Remove the dependence on canister spam to buy and sell gases.

Currently, random gas deposits are created when an asteroid is loaded in (players must be close, ~16 m away). These deposits exist underneath the rock (there's a pinpointer to point to gas deposits, if only for debug purposes).

This also adds a drill that extract a fixed amount of gas from the source per atmosphere update, pushing that out into a pipe at a set temperature and maximum pressure.

A set of docking points with pressure pumps are also added to enable the transfer of gases between grids.

TODOS:

• Automatically enable a minimal atmospherics setup for gas piping from an asteroid to a ship.
  • Minimal setup (drill to pipe to gas port) works fine. Possible issues with more complicated setup.
• Add a set of controls to remotely access a gas port's controls (setting the pressure, on/off status, and direction).
  • Needs testing, should work.
• Disable the gaslocks and clear the outlet ports when undocking (controlling contamination)

Why / Balance

This is a first attempt at more involved atmospherics gameplay: this should enable extracting, moving, filtering and processing large quantities of gas outside of expeditions. This should allow for "gas tanker" gameplay, and may be more suitable for supermatter gameplay without the use of gas miners.

How to test

TBD. Fly around, find gas deposits, pump them.

Media

A simple test case - a player on a Gasbender visits an asteroid, finds a gas deposit, and constructs a scaffold to dock with the host ship and extract the resources back to the shuttle (burn chamber used for storage). This exhibits the deposits, miner, and airlocks in use.

Requirements

• I have read and am following the Pull Request and Changelog Guidelines.
• I have added media to this PR or it does not require an ingame showcase.

Atmos eatin good tonight.

You say a player has to be close to the roid when it spawns to have the deposit appear? or am I reading that wrong.

Will every asteroid have these or only certain asteroids?

Currently not on vgroids, I've got them randomly spawning on all sizes of asteroids (might be worth placing them only on particularly large ones, haven't given it too much thought).

You need to be close to actually have it spawn in, yes, think this should be alright, but if we want to give any sort of "divining equipment", you won't be able to pick out an asteroid that has them at 100-200 m, you'd pretty much need to be on it.

Yeah, Just asking because I've seen asteroids spawn around 120-200 meters away from shuttles at minimum, so not sure how you'd get within 16 meters of the grid as it spawns

Really cool idea, the more gameplay loops that can be done on the main map instead of being locked on expeditions is grand!
