code/__DEFINES/MC.dm 
| MC_AVG_OVER_TIME | creates a running average of "things elapsed" per time period when you need to count via a smaller time period. eg you want an average number of things happening per second but you measure the event every tick (50 milliseconds). make sure both time intervals are in the same units. doesnt work if current_duration > total_duration or if total_duration == 0 |
|---|---|
| MC_RUNNING | Returns true if the MC is initialized and running. Optional argument init_stage controls what stage the mc must have initializted to count as initialized. Defaults to INITSTAGE_MAX if not specified. |
| SS_BACKGROUND | Subsystem only runs on spare cpu (after all non-background subsystems have ran that tick) SS_BACKGROUND has its own priority bracket, this overrides SS_TICKER's priority bump |
| SS_TICKER | (also forces it to run first in the tick (unless SS_BACKGROUND)) |
| INITSTAGE_EARLY | Early init stuff that doesn't need to wait for mapload |
| INITSTAGE_MAIN | Main init stage |
| INITSTAGE_MAX | Highest initstage. |
