## 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,

<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.

- qol: "Added detailed extended examine info on mechanics to pens."
- qol: "Added detailed extended examine info on mechanics to the
psychiatrist/chaplain Mesmetron."
- qol: "Added detailed extended examine info on mechanics to
barricades."
- qol: "Added some extended examine info to (hanging) flags, crayons,
misc."
- code_imp: "Updated dmdocs in many locations."
- bugfix: "You can no longer force-feed people crayons. However, you can
still offer a bite of crayon for them to accept or refuse, for
tradition's sake."
- bugfix: "Reading the contents of a noticeboard now makes you actually
face the noticeboard."
A slight clean up to Dominia flags.
- Zhurong Flag added: description text by Schwann / Human Lore
- Kazhkz and Han'san flags removed from loadout per request of Captain
Gecko / Unathi Lore
- Kazhkz, Han'san and Imperial Diona flags slightly tweaked. They still
do occationally appear in random loot, so the flavour text (and name for
the diona flag) have been adjusted to make sure they're not completely
lore breaking in those instances.

Extends and reworks how various extended information text (desc_info,
desc_build, desc_upgrades) are handled to make object interactions and
mechanics A.) much more clearly documented in-game and B.) much easier
to support from the back-end.
Almost certainly a candidate for test merge.
Assembly/Disassembly instructions are noticeably sporadic, largely due
to our current lack of a unified framework. That's a future thing I'd
like to attack so that it can be handled programmatically, but for now I
only targeted the biggest culprits as I came across them.

## About PR
- Uses `locate()` instead of `get_step()` when determining banner's
location, while considering the set offset value (normally either 32 or
-32) to have an accurate result. This resolves banners having stands
while placed on walls after Init.
- Instead of checking where the user is standing, the banners now checks
the position it'll be placed upon, and whether this position has dense
objects except the ones that is fine to be placed upon. Resolves#18068
- Prevents banner duplication, resolves#18620
I am sorry for the shitcode in advance

Runtime map now has a bunch of new areas / items with often-tested
stuffs, and some hard-to-put-at-runtime stuffs.
Runtime map jobs now are positioned to make it faster to reach the
aforementioned often-tested stuffs.
Runtime map doesn't generate an overmap anymore by default, which speeds
up the process.
Runtime map now loads in ~11 seconds instead of ~40 seconds as it was
before.
Updated the maploader to be faster in parsing maps.
Bapi is not engaged anymore if we're only measuring the map size, which
speeds up the process.
In fastboot we do not generate the codexes anymore, which speeds up the
process.
In fastboot and if exoplanets and away sites are not enabled, we do not
parse the map templates anymore, which speeds up the process.
Updated the icon smoothing to be faster.
Optimized cargo area code.
Other optimizations.
Unified most of the procs into one definition, so there are no duplicate
around the codebase.
Marked some of the above as overridable if a good enough case can be
made for them (eg. external dependency or unlikely to be used).
Adds several new items and structures for use in Unathi ruins. These
include:
Several ancient Unathi clothing items, including two sets of armor.
Pillars and statues for ruin decoration.
Three ancient Unathi melee weapons.
Several flags/banners/tapestries.
Sarcophagi, complete with booby-traps.
An undetonated nuclear bomb, for, uh... don't worry about it.
