## About PR
Adds an industrial themed away site for Odyssey scenarios. The map
starts with a shuttle, broken by a randomized destruction feature.
Actors or the crew may choose to repair it to make it fly once more
### Detailed Changelog
<details><summary>Details</summary>
<p>
- Added a new map_effect, randomized destruction. It comes with two
varieties and different impact ranges. The way it work is the effect
chooses a random amount of turfs in the area it's placed on, and calls
`ex_act` on applicable contents in the turf.
- Added unused sprites for low railing and documented relevant functions
in the existing code.
- Made it so when a railing has an open end that doesn't connect to
anywhere, it'll apply an end cap, making it look more smooth.
- Added ceiling lattices.
- Adjusted unit tests to avoid conflicts that may occur with ceiling
lattices.
- Fixed a bug where the Odyssey subsystem repeatedly added lastly loaded
z-level to the scenario z-levels, instead of all relevant levels to the
site. This was causing issues in Odyssey maps with shuttles.
- Fixed hydrogen tank not using its sprite. Also recoloured the tank to
match modern hydrogen canister colour.
- Fixed `/obj/machinery/door/airlock/maintenance` not using its intended
appearance.

## About PR
- Reduces the site's cost from `2` to `1`.
- Tweaks wall destroying logic of horde type mobs to a saner
alternative.
- Fixes corpses created by landmarks not getting assigned with the
specified access. Fixes#21527
- Creates an abomination subtype that is guaranteed to spawn with a

**Overview:**
The first huge fuckoff mapping PR for giving the Horizon enough extra
space to be able to comfortably map on it for the duration before NBT2
and not be super cramped (extends aft by 6 turfs).
Includes a SECOND vault to heist at the back of the ship and a lot of
maint area people can repurpose. Notably, this also removes the Xenobio
Hazardous Containment room and the Medical Emergency Storage room
(contents of the latter have been moved). Otherwise, y'all got more
ship.

## About PR
Adds an interactive away site. Full of evil, traps, point-defense horde
cleaning and story. This is part 1 of the changes. Currently incomplete
on some mechanics mostly pertaining north-east section of the ruin but I
believe this has enough content as is and a good step for the next
changes to come!
## Detailed Changelog
<details><summary>Contains spoilers, click to expand!</summary>
<p>
- `A revivable mob type`. If this mob wasn't burned or deleted by any
means within a 3 minutes period, it will revive.
- `Abominations`, a subtype of revivable mob. This type can spawn with a
chance to split into smaller creatures in death, if someone approaches
close enough. These mobs are also able to mimic appearance of humans,
being completely pacifist until it reaches to its unsuspecting prey or
gets attacked before it could.
- `Mob tracking console`, tracks any mobs/objects that exists in the
same Z level as the console itself, and included in a global list.
Displays its data in a TGUI screen.
- `Rigged (trapped) vents`, if it detects a player passing by within 1
tile radius from an unwelded rigged vent, it'll spawn up to 2 mobs. The
chances of triggering varies on following coniditons: running (100%),
walking (medium chance), throwing items near it (very small chance).
- `Storytelling holopads`, core logic is ported from Paradise Station,
made by Qwertytoforty. I did minimal modifications to make it work with
our codebase and do some additional things.
- `Footprint mapping helper`, allows mapping footprints of any type.
- `A light fixture subtype`, has a 50-50 chance to spawn as broken or
functional after Initialize.
- `An extraction mini game`, special to this ruin. It entails finding 5
canisters scattered randomly in the ruin and killing every creature
that's lurking around. If these conditions are met players are required
to hold off an extraction device and protect it from the waves of
creatures, while swapping said canisters. Modified from phoron deposit
ruin.

### What's the overall story this ruin tries to convey, and where it's
allowed to spawn at?
This isn't final and a subject open for change where deemed fit. This
ruin is a remnant dating back to pre-Interstellar War. Solarian Alliance
Science Facility (SSF) Nemora, is a failed experiment/expedition
co-conducted by Department of Colonization. I believe it'd make sense to
find this ruin in the old Solarian frontiers far from the Core Worlds,
even so if the sector in question was colonized, nothing would've
stopped a department of a desperate nation in search for their gold in
blind hope. But not too close to an inhabited space.
***This needs to be evaluated by a lore nerd!***
**Possible Sectors:**
- Valley Hale
- Badlands
- Weeping Stars
- Light's Edge
- Lemurian Sea (still up in the air for this one, but I like to think
Solarian suveyors took a swing at it at the time)
- All Crescent Expanse Sectors (east, west, far).
<details><summary>Details on story. I'd advise to skip this bit to not
spoil the experience if you're not reviewing this PR. Spoilers alert,
click to expand!</summary>
<p>
Shortly before the Second Great Depression, when the upcoming crisis had
begun to be felt within the nation's departments, some surveyors from
the Department of Colonization encountered an anomolous signal,
incalculable energy levels in deep space. When they decided to
investigate its source, small expedition teams went missing after a
while.
This drew the attention of the department, as seeing multiple expedition
teams went radio silent. A third-party incursion was suspected here,
pirates or worse. This led to the deployment of sufficiently armed Navy
corvettes to the last known coordinates of the expedition.
To no avail, all that was found was the vacant shuttles of the
surveyors, drifting in orbit around an anomolous asteroid. This gave
room for further discussion in the smaller parts of relevant
departments, after hearing what the inital expedition members had left
behind. The department conceded to pursue this further, funding a
thorough investigation to unearth what was hidden and to see if this was
a threat to demolish or an unexpected resource to exploit.
In time, an outpost was constructed and a researcher, eminent in their
field was commissioned to oversee operations on behalf of the
department. A majority of the attempts didn't go far enough beyond to
bear any fruit. As the progress was too slow and unsatisfactory in the
eyes of funders, this led to a review of the project and therefore
forced Nemora's hand to commence an experimental approach, which proved
a success, _so to say_.
Following this incident, the outpost crumbled under the weight of the
crises that had befallen it. All subsequent requests and communications
fell on the deaf ears of the nation in the midst of a large scale
economic crisis, forced Nemora to join the caravan of "low priority"
demands along with many other pressing nation affairs. In the end, the
facility remained forgotten, burried beneath the many rubble inflicted
by the inevitable storm of change Spur has known, Interstellar War. But
this may yet change, now the same Spur has turned their gaze back to
those uncharted heights, in a desperate attempt to exhaust what is
little known.

### What does "interactive" part entail exactly?
This ruin contains some coded elements (traps, objectives, consequences
of some choices made), attempting to imitate a gameplay loop what a
player would expect from an admin controlled event. While this may not
go further than some coded/scripted events, I think this ruin has some
fun content for security/engineering/medical departments.
Currently this PR contains some core functionality for actual "choices
matter™" stuff for part 2 (if this gets approved).
Also most of the functions used in this ruin was made so it could be
used in any maps.

Did a little extra code refactoring in here while fixing things up to be
a bit more consistent. Xenoarchs also had access to the pilot room for
sensor readings etc, so gave the same to xenobots/xenobios.
However, while in here I got annoyed by the fact that while
ACCESS_INTREPID exists, the other shuttles all rely on per-job manual
overrides to their mapped objects to handle access control. Therefore, I
added ACCESS_SPARK, ACCESS_QUARK, and ACCESS_CANARY, and updated all the
associated jobs/objects to use them instead of a mishmash of bespoke
edits.
_(I would have preferred to use naming conventions like
ACCESS_SHUTTLE_EXPEDITION, ACCESS_SHUTTLE_MINING,
ACCESS_SHUTTLE_SCIENCE, ACCESS_SHUTTLE_INTERCEPTOR, but I was good and
used the in-game names in the code, as was existing convention.)_
Adds the SPLF Raider offship, a repurposed freighter used by the
Solarian People's Liberation Fleet to raid corporate assets in the CRZ.
This is a piratical offship, but they are not antagonists.
- In terms of ghostroles, this ship is comprised of four volunteer
militants, one repurposed civilian synthetic, and one actual naval petty
officer from the 35th splinter to moderate the volunteers.
- My hope is that the ship should avoid independent ships and only
attack corporate vessels, which I hope is communicated in the ghostrole
descriptions.
- For now, the uniforms and voidsuits are all generic Solarian assets,
which may spark some confusion over how the SPLF is meant to be an
entirely seperate faction to the mainline ASSN. With some luck, we'll
have unique SPLF suits to work with soon.

**This is up for review.**
- Remaps the Golden Deep ghostrole to be better.
- Includes new uniforms for menial Golden Deep synthetics, and new
Golden Deep voidsuits.
- Includes the clothes dyer, a new item that changes the colour of
recolourable clothing to whatever the user wishes. Adds it exclusively
to the Golden Deep ship, so the merchant can customise their drip as
much as if they were in the loadout, since pretty much all of the newer
GD clothing is recolourable. Works for both the regular colour and the
accent colour.
- Uses submaps for the warehouse.
- A few semi-empty spaces exist right now which will be filled once the
sprites for what's going to go there are complete, particularly in the
great hall.
- The armoury is intended to be pretty strong - it's a cargo freighter
with very valuable cargo, so you have an unusually hard fight to get
said cargo if you board. It contains a laser rifle, a combat shotgun
(with a box of EMP shells, notably, with the idea that the Hoplan should
be particularly good at restraining other synthetics), two energy
glaives, and two pistols intended for the Hoplan. There are also two
machine pistols and two energy carbines, intended for if the Hoplan wish
to arm the rest of the crew.
- Adds the ship to Valley Hale - has the OK from lore, as far as I know.
This adds the Lone Spacer offship and ghostrole. This is a shuttle-based
offship with only one slot, designed to be a totally generic and
versatile sandbox to play around with. It can be played in pretty much
any way imaginable, in any sector, any species, essentially any origin,
doing anything from piracy to smuggling, trading, light mining or
xenoarchaeology, or whatever else helps the intrepid explorer scratch
out a living from the stars.
**This is up for review.**
A few things to note:
- This adds a few crate variants to provide hazards in some of the
submaps. I've playtested these, they seem to work smoothly.
- There is an ongoing bug with shuttle-based offships, including this
and the Izharshan ship, in which telecommunications doesn't work unless
you clear every filtered frequency. I'm not attempting to tackle that
bug in this PR, so tentatively players will have to use the multitool by
the all-in-one to clear the filtering frequencies, or they can simply
use a shortwave.
- The ship is just within the constraints for shuttle size - I couldn't
make it any bigger. If it can't dock with a docking port, it's because
the docking port is mapped without enough space.
- IconDiffBot says I modified the Xanu Frigate overmap sprites at one
point. I'm not honestly sure how this happened, but it _seems_ fine?
- The workshop submap gives the ship a variety of generic augments, plus
all of the Zeng-Hu specific augments including the memory manipulator
and enhanced retinas. It doesn't have any more faction-specific augments
than those. The submap is mostly designed for installing prosthetics and
augments and making simple robots, but I'm pretty sure you could use it
to make a shipbound or IPC if you really wanted.
Credit to NobleRow for the overmap sprites!
This is a full remap for the Tramp Freighter offship that intends to
bring the ship into closer alignment with newer mapping standards, while
playing the same role as the original map.
- Although the old Catspaw-class freighter is nostalgic, I don't think
the layout is really tenable now without changing it so much that it
might as well have been a full remap anyways. The tramp freighter plays
a very important role as the one universal offship - every whitelist,
every sector, any reason you can RP up for why you're doing anything
you're doing.
- The layout is very different, primarily to accommodate full docking
arms. The idea is that the freighter should always be able to move cargo
to and from other parties without having to traipse through space. With
this design, even if the other party doesn't have docking ports, they
can still just go over to the tramp freighter to conduct their business
in person. You can even just cater to people if you like, it has a
hydroponics bay and bartending equipment.
- All references to the ship that show up on IC mediums have been
renamed to 'Independent Freighter'.
- The cargo bay of the ship has been expanded. Four crates in the middle
of the room contain particularly valuable randomised items. The shuttle
is also designed to accommodate loading racks with merchandise like you
would on the merchant's shuttle.
- The guns in the armoury are half static, half random. The static
options are an energy rifle, energy pistol, and antique revolver - so
you'll always have *some* decent options.
- The ship generally is *full* of contraband, even outside of the
smuggling compartments. Don't get pulled over by a patrol ship, and if
you are, take a lot of care to clean up shop.
- The ship is deliberately weak in ship combat. It has relatively little
fuel and very punishing entry points - you can hit the bridge from any
direction but the aft, and doing so also cuts the gunnery. In my view,
the tramp should be the 'small fry' in ship combat, any pirate offship
should have a relatively easy time with it.
This PR brings back the more accurate title for First Responders, of
Paramedic, to bring it in line with some snippets of the SOP and to be
more accurate to the role itself, as both Security Officers and the rare
and elusive Firefighting Atmospherics Technician can be considered first
responders.
also I just like it better.
Changes any mentions of first responder in gear/access/etc to Paramedic
or PARAMEDIC where applicable.
