Here's some samples to explain how to mix languages.

`,2Emotes. ,eAnd he nods. ,3They don't have to come first anymore.`
There are some exceptions. The exceptions are currently anything with
any of the flags `SIGNLANG`, `HIVEMIND`, `PRESSUREPROOF`,
`KNOWONLYHEAR`. Exceptions work the same as current languages do: they
must be the first language in the message. If so, they prevent switching
into any other language mid-message; if they're not first, they just
wont trigger.
They're exceptions currently because there's not really a clean way that
I or the people I asked for help on this one to make them look nice.
`SIGNLANG` for example doesn't scramble text, it shows it's own `
gestures a lengthy message.` text for those that don't understand. Could
we just replace every instance of sign language with that if somebody
doesn't understand? Probably. It would look pretty awful though. e.g.
`Alina Eskelinen says, "Hello." Alina Eskelinen gestures a short
message.`
This definitely needs testmerging because it more or less rewrites the
entire pipeline surrounding `say`. The `say` code itself had to be
rewritten to support the multiple languages, as well as all the existing
plumbing for listeners receiving messages. In return though, it's
significantly more straightforward and hopefully by extension easier for
people to add to in the future.
Primarily, instead of having four different `hear_say`, `hear_radio`,
`hear_sleep`, etc., routes for messages to come through, every single
audible message is received by `hear_message`, which is responsible for
figuring out how clear the message is (is the radio damaged? is it a
whisper we're eavesdropping on?), who needs to receive it in their
chatbox, formatting it correctly for each listener, and finally if any
npc or object within range needs to react to it in some way, like a
parrot or a mech.
changelog:
- rscadd: "Adds code-switching: you can now speak in multiple languages
in the same message."
- rscadd: "Adds audible emotes to the language list. They can be
triggered with ,e."
- rscdel: "Removes SSrunechat."
- refactor: "Rewrote langchat in order to support multiple languages and
partial comprehension."
- refactor: "Rewrote a vast majority of all saycode and the code
responsible for displaying saytext to clients."
- bugfix: "Sleeping mobs are no longer able to understand all
languages."
- bugfix: "Langchat now correctly shows the appropriate comprehension
for all viewers rather than all viewers sharing the comprehension of the
last viewer."
- bugfix: "Languages which are supposed to be invisible when not
understood no longer appear as scrambled overhead text."
Forgive me whoever has to review this. Biggest areas that have room for
error is stuff like a borer inside someone's head, and Dionae stuff. Old
langchat had odd exceptions for those and I was forced to rewrite it
entirely, but I think I got it all back to how it was working before.
What it says on the can; now we can better compensate for processing
spikes by queueing and accounting for verb times (assuming we actually
use this framework to invoke the bulk of them). I have added its use to
some of them, more can be ported as time goes on, eventually everything
but the most trivial ones should go through this.
No player facing changes. Hopefully.
Praise be the omnissiah.
Adds an augmented translator to the game, with which the user can
understand all human languages. I did not add a translator from xeno
languages, as it would have been very strong, given the difficulty of
translation and the peculiarities of their languages.
I have decomposed the original augment file to improve readability and
code handling. Hopefully this won't cause trouble in the future. (Sorry,
but an 800+ line file is a very large file.)

changes:
rscadd: "Ported a new chat system, Goonchat, that allows for cool things like changing font style, size, spacing, highlighting up to 5 strings in the chat, and DARK MODE."
rscadd: "Repeated chat messages can now get compacted. You can disable this in goonchat settings."
rscadd: "You can change icon style to any font on your system."
tweak: "The game window has been altered a bit to adjust for this."
rscdel: "Removed skin style prefs as they are no longer used."
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().
Removes the spam prevention procs from all background procs, and ensures that they're only placed on procs that the user can initiate.
This will remove the chance of having spam prevention trigger from automated emotes.
Fixes#613
Fixes#531Fixes#276
`/mob/living/proc/revive` now also sets `mob/var/suiciding` to false. This is to stop rejuvinated/ling revived mobs from dying again after being brought back.
Fixes#92Fixes#479Fixes#157Fixes#533Fixes#486Fixes#528
Makes radio and language key overlaps possible.
It is possible to configure the default language keys server side.
Pending: The possibility for players to configure their own language keys.
Commented out the "say error helper" before we have a better implementation or before it can at least be toggleable. Current state doesn't fit way too many edge casess.
Borrows /tg/ html stripping code.
Ghosts are the first to be given this boon, they now have to deliberately emote things like "Spooky man and it#36&;s friends type crap".
First pass on major conversion of xenomorphs to a human subspecies. Additional condensing of various redundant mob verbs.
Converted larva and diona to their own class, collapsed the rest of xenomorphs into a human species, other stuff.
Completely removed attack_alien(). Still have to reimplement some of the lost behavior for human/alien.
Reapplies lost attack_alien() functionality other than tackling/caressing.
Further alien/humanoid cleanup and xenospawn fix-ups. Also uncommented caste verbs.
Removed half-finished abilities system since species.dm handles it.
All xenomorphs functionality should be working now, other than the HUD, tackling and the xenomorph balance issues.
Added icons for xenomorph castes, moved broadcast languages into datums, removed alien_talk and robot_talk vars.
Merged with organ removal code.
Reapplied verbs to simple_animals/slimes. Updated species definitions to have appropriate organs.
Readded tackle as a human verb.
Borer changes regarding brain removal.
Working on moving the human HUD to the species datum a bit. Mixed results.
Moved Cortical Link to a language, added borer husks.
Tidied up the HUD stuff. Still need to make it rebuild properly when species is changed, but this will do for no
Compile fix, forgot the DME.
Fixed up ventcrawl, added new organ mechanics for dionaea.
Fixed up some overlooked sections causing mobs without brains to die immediately.
Fixed up plasma generation for queens, bugs with organs, force_organ issues with set_species().
It's toggleable as client preference.
Displays dots(codersprite) near the mob when he starts typing a message.
Detects chatline me and say via checking contents.
Detects shortcut input me an say via hacky wrapper that's called now instead of direct say/me verbs.
Cleans out the nonverbal language check from say_understands(), which
now is responsible for language only.
Nonverbal languages have a chance of causing an emote when used.
Adds sign languages, which have no verbal component.
Created a helper proc /proc/is_mentor(client) use this when determining if someone is a mentor and they aren't the usr of the proc (rights_check uses usr)
Mentors will no longer hear ghosts while playing
Mentors will no longer see orange text around names in check_player_age panel if they have special_roles
Mentors will no longer be able to tell players with special roles through the use of player_panel
Mentors will no longer be able to aghost, use antagHUD, then return to their bodies.
