New and Modified Map Spawners

[southbridge-fur]

About the PR

Some brainstorming has occurred among the map creators over on Discord and we came up with ideas for some additional map spawners to implement into the game.

Some of that discussion was devoted to the metagamey situation surrounding the pet crate. Given that they are extremely rare maints loot and are rarely mapped, someone with a crate is often assumed via metagaming to be a thief. It was suggested these crates be added to low value crate pool to help ensure they are more common, and less fuel for metagaming. This PR does that.

The additions are specifically a surplus materials crate and a surplus tech boards crate, which both spawn random selections of materials and tech boards. These have also been added to the low value crate spawn pool.

Surplus Tech Boards

The list of boards is as follows:

    - id: AirAlarmElectronics
    - id: FireAlarmElectronics
    - id: DoorElectronics
    - id: FirelockElectronics
    - id: APCElectronics
    - id: SignalTimerElectronics
    - id: SMESMachineCircuitboard
    - id: SubstationMachineCircuitboard
    - id: SpaceVillainArcadeComputerCircuitboard
    - id: BlockGameArcadeComputerCircuitboard

This is a reduced selection from the regular tech board spawner, to prevent power gaming. The crate rolls 4-8 times on this table when it generates.

Surplus Materials

The surplus materials crate has the following loot table

    - !type:GroupSelector # regular materials, 10
      weight: 35
      children:
      - id: SheetGlass10
      - id: SheetSteel10
      - id: SheetPlastic10
    - !type:GroupSelector # regular materials, stack
      weight: 30
      children:
      - id: SheetGlass
      - id: SheetSteel
      - id: SheetPlastic
    - !type:GroupSelector # secondary materials, stack
      weight: 30
      children:
      - id: MaterialCloth
      - id: SheetPlasteel
      - id: MaterialWoodPlank
      - id: PartRodMetal
    - !type:GroupSelector # tertiary materials, singles
      weight: 5
      children:
      - id: SheetPlasma1
      - id: SheetUranium1
      - id: IngotGold1
      - id: IngotSilver1

This table is rolled on 2-4 times when the crate's inventory is generated.

On average, this means the person opening this crate will receive slightly less total materials than they would if the crate was instead one of the genetic 90 steel, 90 plastic, etc. crates. I feel like this is best since it's more likely this crate will contain a material the person wants. It also does come with the possibility that it will contain significantly less materials, or a decent bit more. Which to me disincentives these crates being a guaranteed source of loot if they are spawned in a map.

Clothing Vendors

This PR also meets the requirement proposed in the Pride-O-Mat PR #34412 (review) by adding a new random spawner for clothing vendors.

(Sprite by me)

Odds are as follows

- type: entityTable
  id: ClothingVendorTable
  table: !type:GroupSelector
    children:
    - id: VendingMachineClothing
      weight: 40
    - id: VendingMachineWinter
      weight: 40
    - id: VendingMachinePride
      weight: 10
    - id: VendingMachineTheater
      weight: 10

---

Also @Emisse had a funny idea to give maint loot lockers a very rare chance to spawn an additional maint loot locker, so that has also been implemented.

after about 100 attempts or so

Why / Balance

More variety in loot, spawns etc. is always nice in maps.

Technical details

All Yaml changes, most of which are adding new entityTables and entities or markers for spawning items.

I love the surplus crate idea! However, I find the Pride-O-Mat's weight to be a bit too high, it being as common as ClothesMates/WinterDrobes removes their sense of uniqueness (And rarity, meaning coder socks would lose a bit of their essence), so I think making it as probable as AutoDrobes to be much more fun, or even less so to make stumbling into them a complete surprise!
