grand_ritual

The Grand Ritual is the Wizard's alternate victory condition and also a tool to make funny distractions and progress the round state.

The wizard is assigned a random area to perform the ritual in. This entails travelling to that area, drawing a 3x3 rune, and casting on it for a while. Completing these causes a random event to immediately occur and may cause additional side effects in the area. The more rituals are completed, the more dramatic the events which can be spawned.

After passing certain thresholds Grand Ritual completions will begin spawning active and expended Reality Tears. Above a certian threshold, beginning the ritual will alert the crew to your location.

The 7th ritual completion is special and allows you to pick a "finale" effect which should be very dramatic. Further completion after that returns to the usual behaviour.

Vars
area_blacklist	Areas where you can't be tasked to draw a rune, usually because they're too mean
area_whitelist	Areas where you can place a rune To be honest if maintenance subtypes didn't exist I could probably have got away with just a blacklist, c'est la vie
blacklisted_rune_turfs	A blacklist of turfs we cannot scribe on.
drawing_rune	True while you are drawing a rune, prevents action spamming
drew_finale	If you have drawn your finale rune
rune	Weakref to a rune drawn in the current area, if there is one

times_completed	Number of times the grand ritual has been completed somewhere by this user

total_cheese_sacrificed	Number of cheese sacrificed on previously drawn runes
Procs
draw_rune	Draws the ritual rune
get_appropriate_rune_typepath	The seventh rune we spawn is special
get_pinpoint_text	Compare positions and output information. Similar to heretic target locating. But simplified because we shouldn't be able to target locations on lavaland or the gateway anyway.
on_rune_complete	Called when you finish invoking a rune you drew, get ready for another one.
pinpoint_area	Pinpoints the ritual area
set_new_area	Finds a random station area to place our rune in
start_drawing_rune	Checks if you're actually able to draw a rune here
