## 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.

Refactored the projectile code, mostly in line with TG's now.
Refactored various procs that are used or depends on it.
Projectiles can now ricochet if enabled to.
Damage falloffs with distance.
Homing projectiles can now have accuracy falloff with distance.
Projectiles have a maximum range.
Muzzle flash is configurable per projectile.
Impact effect of the projectile is configurable per projectile.
Accuracy decreases with distance.
Projectiles work with signals and emits them, for easy hooking up from
other parts of the code.
Meatshielding is now less effective .
Impact sound is now configurable per projectile.
High risk.
Refactored hitby to be in line with TG's version.
Refactored item weight defines to a more clear naming scheme, also in
line with TG's version.
Refactored how the movement bumps are handled, ported signals to handle
them, in preparation for the movement update.
Fixed disposal hit bouncing the hitting atom on the wall.
Items do not push other items anymore if they are tiny.
Removed the gelf logging infrastructure.
Refactored the various logging procs to be a direct call in light of the
above.
Removed ancilliary UDP related things.
Our SSOverlays system is outdated, and is likely the cause of many of
the issues seen in #18895. It has also been linked to a massive server
performance decrease.
This brings an updated system from Baystation, hopefully with speed
increases.
Should be testmerged, ideally with #18895.

This PR is pretty decent in size. The contents of changes are:
Modular guns rebalance:
Capacitors reliability was buffed: reinforced 80 -> 100, uranium 50 -> 60, teranium 45 -> 55, phoron 40 -> 50, bluespace 30 -> 45.
Added nano reinforced barrel which has 10 more reliability than reinforced barrel.
Added enhanced grip MK2, which has improved fire delay by 0.2 compared to MK1 grip.
Added stablity stock, which improves fire delay by 0.2 and accuracy by 0.5 compared to regular stock.
Added animations to lots of modular components like all capacitors, almost all modulators, lenses, etc.
Modular guns now have to be assembled inside of weapons analyzers. You cannot assemble them in hands anymore
Weapons analyzer:
Added machinery called Weapons analyzer. Main purpose of it is to display stats of any weapon or item. You can accepts anything that is an item, even trash(probably). For modular guns it will also display table of components and their statistics.
Modular guns now need to be assembled inside of weapons analyzer.
Added circuit board and ability to construct weapons analyzer in RND. Circuit board required tech: engineering = 3, data = 2, combat = 2.
Misc changes:
recharger and wall recharger now visually display on their icon how much charge is inside of weapon/gun that is being charged.
This PR will lead us towards the Promised Day, for in its wake there shall be much celebration and ecstasy as this world becomes a world suitable for developer hegemony. The first strike is thusly;
All << is converted into to_chat().
* Base work for the unathi robot subspecies.
* Adds metabolism species, kidney vars, and the robot unathi organs.
* Moves some action buttons to organs, pretty much a bay port right now. Todo: the unathi and alien stuff should also go here.

* Finishes more implants, and interactions with flashs and vaurca.
* Prepare for great changes.
* Drops the real bomb, boss.
* He who fights with monsters.
* Far more work into augments and limb removing powers.
* Limb verbs should be good now.
* A LOT of work into the assited organ, allowing it to bleed and etc, as well adding a new chem that will stop bleeding in their case.

Machinery objects' component_parts list is now automatically populated with the types in the component_types list. Types can have an associated number which is interpreted as an instruction to spawn that number of that type. This eliminates a few Initialize() procs, and simplifies others.
Example:
component_types = list(
/obj/foo/bar,
/obj/baz = 2
)
Other changes:
Cable coils will now no longer force a stack size of 30 when created without their stack size passed as a parameter - this fixes anonymous types not working correctly with cable coils.
changes:
Machinery now uses machinery_process() instead of process(), allowing machines to be put into SSprocessing-style lists in addition to the machinery list.
Automatic power calculations now involve less proc-calls.
* Replace SSingulo with SScalamity; processing cleanup
- SScalamity now handles blobs as well as singularity-types.
- Processing subtypes have been simplified to not require a stop_processing definition.

changes:
Removed shim for old spark system.
Converted all calls to old spark system with calls to new one.
Processor-based effects are no longer pooled, as it had minimal performance impact and was breaking things.
Tweaked some visible_messages for rogue drones.
PB effects' handling of location is now done at the /datum/effect_system level.
- Gridcheck random event is updated. Core behavior remains the same, but mechanism it uses to achieve power outage is changed.
- Both SMESs and APCs have new variable which is set by gridcheck. This variable decrements by 1 every tick, and until it is back to zero the APC/SMES won't work.
- SMESs are disabled for 60-120 seconds (random for each SMES). APCs for 120-240 seconds.
- Both SMESs and APCs show error UI with timer counting down until the device restarts (begins working again).
- Both SMEss and APCs may be manually restarted, on per-device basis, by clicking restart button in the UI. This is useful if you urgently need one or two devices back online, for example, medical treatment facilities, etc. This immediately skips the X second timer and restores the device to working state, while keeping the original intention of this event - allowing antagonists to use lack of power to enter areas they don't normally have access to.
