This is it. The big one.
Risk: Very large. This modifies or rewrites several important systems.
Some things still need balancing, but that's probably better done if/when this hits dev.
changes:
New smooth lighting system.
Machinery split into three processes: machinery, powernet, pipenet Removed due to breakage. Refactored into multi-step process.
Mob process rewritten.
NanoUI process rewritten.
Objects process rewritten.
Tweaked color output of station lights.
Slime core lights now emit colored light.
Fixed light update frequency issue with fire alarms, hydroponics trays, and airlocks.
Increased light emission from bolted airlocks.
Miscellaneous performance improvements.
New datum pool implementation.
New lighting usage profiler.
Lighting system now tracks UV light, which is not visible to players.
Space now has a parallax effect.
Disabled Spin View verbs due to incompatibility with the new lighting system.
Disabled hallucination view spin due to incompatibility with the new lighting system.
Lighting system now initializes in the lobby before the round starts to reduce BoR deadtime.
Added UV light tracking to lighting engine; dionae now gain energy exclusively from UV light.
Added colored lighting to a few consoles that used default (white) light.
Adds Shells. Adds tags. Adds IPC subspecies. Adds HK-47's. Does not add IPC construction.
Beyond the obvious review of shells, the exact stats of the IPC subspecies need review. They were largely an afterthought, and quickly overshadowed by the shell project.

The long waited sock update;
Socks are being added as another underwear like option, with some exclusive ones for females. Only humans (and squish) can have them atm.
Also, I am nearly sure this will work.
Ports Apollo's infraction's system, creating a permanent criminal record for every character. Every minor or medium infraction accrued over the course of a round is added to the character's permanent security record which is available at vanilla records councils. Antagonists are automatically exempt from this process, and players can exercise control over what charges they consider canon or not.
Brigging a person is now dependent on the criminal sentencing computer, which reads a person's ID and applies a brig timer automatically for the charges selected. Personnel without ID's will have to be brigged manually.
rscadd: "Added three new energy-based weapons, one designed purely for pest-control."
rscadd: "Added a new rare handpistol, based off of a proposed competitor to the NT Mk58."
rscadd: "Added a new pet for the Head of Security - the PTR-7 Tranquilizer Rifle."
rscadd: "Syndicate manhack delivery grenades are now available via the traitor uplink."
rscadd: "Manhacks will no longer attack anyone belonging to the 'syndicate' faction, including Heist pirates."
tweak: "Tweaked loadout customisation whitelists, generally making them more restrictive by role."
bugfix: "It is no longer possible to be older or younger than your species ought to be."
changes:
rscadd: "Respawn timers are now tracked individually for playing as animals (mice), small synthetics (drones and pAIs) and crew (everything else). This means you can now play as a mouse or drone while waiting to respawn as a full crewmember.".
tweak: "You can now spawn as a drone immediately upon joining as an observer, without having to wait ten minutes. There is still a cooldown between respawning as a drone if you just died as one."
tweak: "Slightly improved the error messages if you try to respawn when you've not waited long enough."
In addition, unlisted changes:
The admin verb 'Allow player to respawn' now sets all three respawn timers
Respawn times are now centralised in setup #defines, for easier editing in future
Nonliving mobs will no longer attempt to ghost when deleted. A comment in mob.dm explains this change
The idea is to consolidate all of the spam that you see on the lower right panel into one concrete, semi-persistent pop-up window. Utilizing bootstrap, it'll show you a neat welcome screen, the message of the day, staff memos (if accessible), and a personalized set of notifications. The system is set up for easy future expansion, as well.
Makes several lorefriendly changes to chargen.
Permits numbers in chargen naming for the benefit of IPCs.
Permits chargen fluff to be viewed via employment record consoles and ID cards.
Vaurca hivemind language added.
Vaurca appropriate name generator added.
Tied Vaurca language to their neural socket organ.
Added a method for non-Vaurca to intercept the Vaurca hivenet so long as they construct the correct item.
Sprites for Vaurca organs.
Neutered all Vaurca.
Cutting open a Vaurca for surgery now requires heavier equipment.
Injecting a Vaurca with a syringe now will take time.
Adds various Vaurca cosmetic items available via loadout.
Adds a few new burst-fire weapons exploiting the burstfire fix - obtainable via research or adminbus.
Ports the ability to stick heads on spears from Paradise-code.
Added an error message when trying to bite someone before the cooldown expires.
Removed spoken Vaurca language.
Heavily nerfed K'ois' properties.
Halved the nutrition value of nutriment, returning it to old-code state.
Nerfed the damage dealt by bite, while reducing the cooldown.
Fixed burstfire weapons spamming attack messages when fired, allowing for more automatic weapons.
Fixed Vaurca player ability to select coloured eyes.
Rewrite's Mahzel's SQL character and preference saving.
Introduces easy config switching between the new and old system, with no troubles at all.
Also introduces better logging for DBQuery/proc/parseArguments(), should something go wrong. And classes SQL query errors as full on error snow, as opposed to debug data.
The Vampire gamemode, as ported right now. The gamemode is in, as well
as creating a vampire through the traitor panel. All abilities seem to
function, unable to test enthrall however (though I have a feeling it
will have to be redone). Enthralling someone without a CKey will give
you the correct response, however.
Any abilities having to do with lums will need to be redone. Vamphud as
well.
If looking over this and pointing out errors/fixing is faster than
simply porting it yourself, then feel free to do so!
Changes the way savefile version upgrades are done, letting each sub-setting handle it own upgrade path, while also making it easier to transfer settings between preferences and individual characters save slots.
Adds client verb to access the character setup screen from anywhere.
Moves name validation to species level, making it possible for IPCs to have numbers in their name.
Adds gender validation, also adds support to add neuter/plural genders in the future if ever desired.
Now sanitizes preferences before applying them to a mob.
Fixes#11433.
