## About The Pull Request
Adds the ability to use a pen or crayon or spraycan to draw a face or
eyes onto certain bots
This allows people who miss the pareidolia of the old medkit sprite to
fix it themselves
You can clean it off again using most cleaning products, if you disagree

I think from looking at this screenshot apparently I haven't enabled
pixel perfect 2x on my laptop for which i should be executed, sorry
I didn't add any for ones not pictured here because I couldn't think of
a good way to draw them but it's simple enough to expand.
The face will be coloured with whatever ink you used to draw it, I was
just lazy and only used a regular pen in this picture
How are all of the non-white drawing implements adding that white
circle? Don't worry about it
This comes in the form of a component so if you want to make other
things easily graffitable then you can do that
I ironically called it the defaceable component even though it's used to
add faces
## Why It's Good For The Game
It seems like something people have been wanting and it seemed like a
cute idea

add: You can draw faces onto some bots using a pen, crayon, or spraycan

## About The Pull Request
ID cards/MMI mech access/simple mob access/pAIs now use signals instead
of checking specific slots with mob checks. We do this through mob's
``get_access`` proc that collects all access a mob has with a
collect_access signal.
## Why It's Good For The Game
It looks cleaner and we no longer individually check `check_access` for
every single item that may have access. It's cleaner to put it all
together and check in one go with all the access we've got. This also
makes it easier to add items that hold access that aren't necessarily
IDs but you want to be able to open stuff with.
## Changelog
🆑
refactor: ID checking for access has been reworked, please make a bug
report if anything that's supposed to grant access is not working.

## About The Pull Request
Fixes all instances of numbers being used as assoc list keys in things
that aren't alists, either by turning them into alists or changing the
keys to something else. Also adds new macros to support creating global
alists, as a few global lists became alists. Most of these are pretty
simple and self-explanatory but
- The GLOB.huds one necessitated rewriting because code depended on it
being a non-assoc list, which it technically was because the defines it
used as keys were numbers so BYOND turned it into a regular list, most
of this was for loops through all the subtypes of
`/datum/atom_hud/data/diagnostic` of which there's only one, so I just
changed it to get that type directly by key
- NT Frontier used number indexes which it looped through for some
reason and also passed to TGUI, changed these to strings and adjusted
the TGUI to match, I tested this and it works fine
## Why It's Good For The Game
Makes the code compile, I couldn't test everything but I tried to check
all usages of affected vars to make sure they wouldn't break from being
switched to alists, a TM might be in order just to be sure nothing's
fucked

This PR adds logging for people turning bot sapience on and off
This is currently logged to silicon logs, even though the mob is not a
silicon, just because I figured that's where an admin would look for
information related to robots. If you think that is stupid I can put it
somewhere else.
## Why It's Good For The Game

## About The Pull Request
I have added the ability to create and edit station radio channels
through the existing telecommunications system.
You can change the name of the radio channel and its color.
The channel settings are changed and created through the servers
(Frequencies Settings)
Here i created my own channel:
1) Add frequency at Receiver (you will not see channel name):
2) Add frequency at Bus (you will not see channel name):
3) Add frequency at Server
4) Add settings for your frequency
5) See the result:
Important Notes:
1) Headsets, radios, and intercoms will not see a change in
telecommunications, but will use standard names (Common, Security etc.).
2) There are still reserved names that cannot be used: CentComm,
Syndicate, Uplink, CTFs channels
3) Servers must filter frequency for applying settings on them
## Why It's Good For The Game
Now telecommunication channels names and colors depends on the settings
of the network servers, which makes it more flexible and logical. It is
also useful for foreign language servers, as you can translate channel
names.
## Changelog

## About The Pull Request
* When gibbing mobs, spawned gib type is now based on mob's biotypes if
they're not a carbon, or their chest (or first) bodypart if they are,
rather than requiring a proc override for every single mob. This means
that a few robotic mobs no longer drop meaty gibs, and that gibbing
androids now produces cyborg gibs instead of a meaty surprise, plus they
should no longer runtime when trying to gib a robot. Gibs also are now
spawned around the gibber and streak outwards instead of magically
teleporting a few tiles away, for some visual flair.
* Fixed meat not overriding blood DNA on blood_walk component which made
xeno and lizard meat leave behind orange trails instead of proper
lime/dark green blood colors (due to them keeping human meat DNA).
* Brightened up the gibber blood overlay I've missed, so it should be
consistent with old blood colors now.
* Also cleaned up the gibspawner code.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Biotype/chest changes should make devs lives easier and gameplay a bit
more consistent, and streaking just makes the process look slightly
better.
## Changelog

## About The Pull Request
Refactors most of blood handling code untouched by #90593 and completely
rewrites all blood decals, components and reagents.
- Blood types now have behavioral flags which allow them to control
where they leave decals/DNA/viruses. Oil no longer transfers DNA and
viruses with it, while podpeople water-blood doesn't leave visible
decals on turfs and items, but still can be picked up by DNA scanners.
- Multiple blood types have received unique handling - liquid
electricity blood now glows in the dark, oil trails are flammable and
lube ones are slippery. Oil blood can be restored with fuel, lube with
silicon and slime with stable plasma (as normal plasma already passively
regenerates their blood), instead of everything using iron. Saline
solution only supplements on iron-based blood and won't do anything to
help with bloodloss for species who rely on different blood types.
(Roundstart this applies only to Ethereals)
- All blood logic has been moved away from the blood reagent itself into
a blood element that is assigned to the blood reagent by default, and to
any reagent that's drawn from a mob as their "blood" (in
``transfer_blood_to``). This means that blood you draw from lizards will
be green and have lizard's blood description instead of mentioning red
blood cells, Ethereal "blood" will actually contain their DNA and genes,
etc.
- Refactored all blood decals. Blood states are no more, everything is
now handled via blood DNA. Credits to MrMelbert and Maplestation, as a
significant amount of code has been taken from
https://github.com/MrMelbert/MapleStationCode/pull/436 and many of his
followup PRs. Oil and xenomorph splatters are now subtypes of blood,
blood drying is now animated, blood trails now curve and can be
diagonal.
- Rewrote bloodysoles and bloody_spreader components, credits to Melbert
again for the former, while latter now makes more sense with its
interactions. Bloody soles no longer share blood DNA with your hands.
- Ported Melbert's bloody footprint sprites and bot-blood-spreading
functionality.
- Removed all species-side reagent interactions, instead they're handled
by said species' livers. (This previously included exotic blood
handling, thus the removal)
- Slightly optimized human rendering by removing inbetween overlay
holders for clothing when they're not needed.
- Blood-transmitted diseases will now get added to many more decals than
before.
- Cleaned up and partially refactored replica pods, fixed an issue where
monkeys/manipulators were unable to harvest mindless pods.
- Exotic bloodtype on species now automatically assigns their blood
reagent, without the need to assign them separately.
- Clown mobs now bleed (with colorful reagent instead of blood during
april fools), and so do vatbeasts (lizard blood)
- Implemented generic procs for handling bleeding checks, all sorts of
scanners now also correctly call your blood for what it is.
- Podpeople's guts are now lime-green like their organs, instead of
being weirdly greyish like their water-blood. (Their bleeding overlays
are still grey, as they're bleeding water)
- Slimepeople now can bleed. Their jelly is pale purple in color, but
their wound overlays copy their body color.
- Injecting/spraying/splashing/etc mob with a reagent preserves its
data, so you could theoretically recycle fine wines from someone's
bloodstream
- Fixed burdened chaplain's sect never actually giving a blessing when
applying effects, and giving a blessing when nothing can be healed.
Inverted check strikes again.
- Closes#91039
#### Examples
A lot of blood here has dried, visually the blood colors are almost
exactly the same as before either of the blood refactors.
## About The Pull Request
Melee attack chain now has a list passed along with it,
`attack_modifiers`, which you can stick force modifiers to change the
resulting attack
This is basically a soft implementation of damage packets until a more
definitive pr, but one that only applies to item attack chain, and not
unarmed attacks.
This change was done to facilitate a baton refactor - batons no longer
hack together their own attack chain, and are now integrated straight
into the real attack chain. This refactor itself was done because batons
don't send any attack signals, which has been annoying in the past (for
swing combat).
## Changelog
🆑 Melbert
refactor: Batons have been refactored again. Baton stuns now properly
count as an attack, when before it was a nothing. Report any oddities,
particularly in regards to harmbatonning vs normal batonning.
refactor: The method of adjusting item damage mid-attack has been
refactored - some affected items include the Nullblade and knives.
Report any strange happenings with damage numbers.
refactor: A few objects have been moved to the new interaction chain -
records consoles, mawed crucible, alien weeds and space vines, hedges,
restaurant portals, and some mobs - to name a few.

closet types (including crates)

## About The Pull Request
People can now pet held mothroaches and pugs if they want to, or use
items on them, hopefully without causing many issues. After all, it only
took about a couple dozen lines of code to make...
...Oh, did the 527 files changed or the 850~ lines added/removed perhaps
catch your eye? Made you wonder if I accidentally pushed the wrong
branch? or skewed something up big time? Well, nuh uh. I just happen to
be fed up with the melee attack chain still using stringized params
instead of an array/list. It was frankly revolting to see how I'd have
had to otherwise call `list2params` for what I'm trying to accomplish
here, and make this PR another tessera to the immense stupidity of our
attack chain procs calling `params2list` over and over and over instead
of just using that one call instance from `ClickOn` as an argument. It's
2025, honey, wake up!
I also tried to replace some of those single letter vars/args but there
are just way too many of them.

## About The Pull Request
Converts `/datum/player_details` into `/datum/persistent_client`.
Persistent Clients persist across connections. The only time a mob's
persistent client will change is if the ckey it's bound to logs into a
different mob, or the mob is deleted (duh).
Also adds PossessByPlayer() so that transfering mob control is cleaner
and makes more immediate sense if you don't know byond-fu.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Clients are an abstract representation of a connection that can be
dropped at almost any moment so putting things that should be stable to
access at any time onto an undying object is ideal. This allows for
future expansions like abstracting away client.screen and managing
everything cleanly.

## About The Pull Request
adds repairbots to the game!
this pr serves as a massive rework and buff to floorbots. i was a bit
sad that they dont get built much anymore so ive given them tons of more
utilities and uses.
Repairbots still inherit to place tiles and repair breaches. but they
can now rebuild walls, rebuild windows and repair structure and
machinery. Also Ive given them voicelines to add more character to them.
In short, they are very depressed with their job (however they express
their happy go lucky attitude when u emag them where they will start
deconstructing the station)
to demonstrate capabilities, here's a slightly sped up clip of some
repairbots patching up an area that was maxcapped 4 times:
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/bddac3b0-1984-4571-85d3-c5283dd7c0de
When repairbots feel threatened, they will retract into their little

carry and plop them down at breached sites, or to bash skull with it

## About The Pull Request
Currently to check for Silicon access, we do:
``if is silicon or is admin ghost or has unlimited silicon privileges or
has machine remote in hand``
What has unlimited silicon privileges? Bots, Drones, and admin ghosts.
To check for AI access, it just checks for AI instead of silicon, and
doesnt check for unlimited silicon privileges.
This was kinda silly, so I thought I should make this a little easier to
understand.
Now all silicon/ai traits come from ``AI_ACCESS_TRAIT`` or
``SILICON_ACCESS_TRAIT``. I made a single exception to keep Admin ghost,
since now instead of being a var on the client, we moved it to using the
same trait but giving it to the client instead, but since we have to
keep parity with previous functionality (admins can spawn in and not
have this on, it only works while as a ghost), I kept previous checks as
well.
No more type checks, removes a silly var on the mob level and another on
the client.
Now while I was doing this, I found a lot of tgui's ``ui_act`` still
uses ``usr`` and the wrong args, so I fixed those wherever I saw them,
and used a mass replace for the args.
Other changes:
- machinery's ``ui_act`` from
https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/pull/81250 had ``isAI`` replaced
with ``HAS_AI_ACCESS``, this has been reverted. Machine wands and admin
ghosts no longer get kicked off things not on cameras. This was my
fault, I overlooked this when adding Human AI.
- Human AI's wand gives AI control as long as it's in your hand, you can
swap to your offhand. I hope this doesn't end up going horribly,
otherwise I'll revert this part. It should let human AIs not have their
UI closed on them when swapping to eat food or use their door wand or
whatnot.
- Bots previously had special checks to scan reagents and be
unobservant, I replaced this with giving them the trait. I also fixed an
instance of unobservant not being used, so now statues don't affect the
basic creature, whatever that is.
## Why It's Good For The Game
This is an easier to understand way of handling silicon access and makes
these mobs more consistent between eachother.
Other than what I've mentioned above, this should have no impact on
gameplay itself.

## About The Pull Request
Currently if you want to apply a HUD you usually add both its trait and
the HUD itself. Only exceptions are things like simplemobs where you
should avoid adding the hud trait since it adds security/med DB access
and such, but there is no cases where you'd want to apply the trait and
not apply the hud.
Requested by Melbert about a week ago.
## Why It's Good For The Game
This makes working with HUDs significantly easier, as you no longer have
to bother with manually adding/removing them. Also potentially removes
an edge case where if your hud could get removed while keeping the
trait.

## About The Pull Request
### EDITED, see spoiler for previous about section.
This pr adds the `TRAIT_SILICON_EMOTES_ALLOWED`, which is now used to
determine what can perform silicons emotes instead of typechecks.
We do this by adding a `trait_required` var to emotes, which if set is
checked for in `can_run_emote(...)` and means the mob must have that
trait to use the emote.
We then adds this trait to all of the mobs previously capable of using
silicon emotes and the beep emote, being:
All silicons, basic bots, simple bots, orbies, and brain mobs.
In addition, we add the trait to robotic voicebox users.
Finally, it makes beeping a silicon emote.
What this changes is that robotic voicebox users can beep and use other
silicon emotes, basic and simple bots can actually beep, sentient orbies
could use other silicon emotes, and brains can beep and use silicon
emotes.
Previously brains where on the allowed types list for beeping, but
living emotes also blocked brains generally, so they couldn't _actually_
beep.
<details>
<summary>Previous About Section</summary>
All this really does is add a new trait, `TRAIT_SILICON_EMOTES_ALLOWED`,
which when given to a human allows them to use silicon emotes.
It does this by adding the `/mob/living/carbon/human` type to the
allowed types for these emotes, but then adding an additional check to
`can_run_emote(...)` for these emotes to block it for humans if they
don't have the trait.
We add it to the typecache because the base checks for
`can_run_emote(...)` would block if not for that, but we _do_ want the
other checks it runs.
</details>
## Why It's Good For The Game
I just think it'd be fun, really. Like, _I'd_ want to beep at people
when I'm going out of my way to augment the shit out of my character.
It's an item primarily accessible by roboticists and transhumanists,
both of which are encouraged/required to interact with silicons, so I
think this'd lead to fun interactions for those that do commit to
getting the silicon-speech tongue replacement.
Finally, I mean, it's a funky synthesizer that makes you sound like a
silicon. Why shouldn't it let you synthesize these sounds too? Hell,
even its attack verbs are beeping and booping already.
### EDITED, additional justification:
It's weird for basic/simple bots to be able to use all other silicon
emotes except beeping.
MMI'd brains/posibrains being able to beep looked intentional, just
broken. This fixes that.
I feel we might as well just allow them to use other silicon emotes
while we're at it.
## About The Pull Request
- Splits the trait into two, one that affects only bots (like the
original version) and one that only affects machines
- Only mapload bots are affected (again)
- Only mapload machines are affected
- The Automated Announcer is immune
## Why It's Good For The Game
I made this trait a while back and then someone else changed it to be
far more disruptive and annoying without adjusting the weight, so I feel
like I have the right to reign it back in a little bit.
This aims to retain some of the charm intended behind the original trait
while maintaining some of the changes made to it.
## Changelog

game start
del: Machine Language station trait cannot affect the Automated
Announcer in telecomms

## About The Pull Request
As the title says. A standard power cell now only stores 10 KJ and
drains power similar to how it did before the refactor to all power
appliances.
The new standard megacell stock part stores 1 MJ (what cells store right
now). APCs and SMESs have had their power cells replaced with these
megacell stock parts instead. Megacells can only be used in APCs and
SMESs. It shouldn't be possible to use megacells in any typical
appliance.
This shouldn't change anything about how much 'use' you can get out of a
power cell in regular practice. Most should operate the same and you
should still get the same amount of shots out of a laser gun, and we can
look at expanding what can be switched over to megacells, e.g. if we
want mechs to require significantly more power than a typical appliance.
Thanks to Meyhazah for the megacell icon sprites.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Power cell consumption is way too high ever since the power appliance
refactor that converted most things to be in joules. It's a bit
ridiculous for most of our machinery to drain the station's power supply
this early on.
The reason it's like this is because regular appliances (laser guns,
borgs, lights) all have a cell type that is identical to the APC/SMES
cell type. And it means that if we want to provide an easy way to charge
these appliances without making it easy to charge APCs/SMESs through a
power bug exploit, we need to introduce a new cell type to differentiate
between what supplies power and regular appliances that use power. This
is primarily what the megacell stock part does.
This moves us back to what it was originally like before the power
refactor, where recharging power cells wouldn't drain an exorbitant
amount of energy. However, it maintains the goal of the original
refactor which was to prevent people from cheesing power generation to
produce an infinite amount of power, as the power that APCs and SMESs
operate at is drastically different from the power that a regular
appliance uses.
## Changelog
🆑 Watermelon, Mayhazah
balance: Drastically reduces the power consumption and max charge of
power cells
balance: Added a new stock part called the battery, used primarily in
the construction of APCs and SMESs.
add: Suiciding with a cell/battery will shock you and potentially dust
you/shock the people around you if the charge is great enough.

## About The Pull Request
There's a really long standing tradition in the code (at least 13 years
old) that every mob should, at a base, be attacked in the chest.
However, this can cause some strangeness for mobs that don't have chests
(bots). Basically, what we do is we override this message so that bots
don't get hit in the chest, because this proc will always require a zone
input (and default input is the chest (and disentangling that will take
more time that what I can afford)) so let's just hide the message to the
user.
this is also a nice thing to just have in general because a hook into
the strike zone portion of the item attack message can have some pretty
nice effects (e.g. what if you want to add on a descriptor of the head,
or say eye for a creature that only has a eye for a head, or whatever).
turret faction got removed by accident.

## About The Pull Request
this refactors honkbots into basic mobs. its mostly a faithful 1:1
refactor but i couldnt keep my hands to myselves so i gave them some new
behaviors.
honkbots now love playing with clowns, they will go seek out for clowns
and celebrate around them. also, if the honkbot finds a banana peel or a
slippery item near it, it will actively drag people onto them
honkbots will now go out of theirway to mess with secbots and annoy them
## Why It's Good For The Game
refactors hinkbots into basic bots and also undoes some of the silliness
i did in the previous basic bot prs. i also added lazylist support to

## About The Pull Request
Rewrites how alt click works.
Based heavily on #82625. What a cool concept, it flows nicely with
#82533.
Fixes#81242
(tm bugs fixed)
Fixes#82668
<details><summary>More info for devs</summary>
Handy regex used for alt click s&r:
`AltClick\((.*).*\)(\n\t.*\.\.\(\))?`
`click_alt($1)` (yes I am aware this only copies the first arg. there
are no other args!)
### Obj reskins
No reason for obj reskin to check on every single alt click for every
object. It applies to only a few items.
- Moved to obj/item
- Made into signal
- Added screentips
### Ventcrawling
Every single atmospherics machine checked for ventcrawling capability on
alt click despite only 3 objects needing that functionality. This has
been moved down to those individual items.
</details>
## Why It's Good For The Game
For players:
- Alt clicking should work more logically, not causing double actions
like eject disk and open item window
- Added context menus for reskinnable items
- Removed adjacency restriction on loot panel
For devs:
- Makes alt click interactions easier to work with, no more click chain
nonsense and redundant guard clauses.
- OOP hell reduced
- Pascal Case reduced
- Glorious snake case
## Changelog
🆑
add: The lootpanel now works at range.
add: Screentips for reskinnable items.
fix: Alt click interactions have been refactored, which may lead to
unintentional changes to gameplay. Report any issues, please.

## About The Pull Request
This PR does many things, I'll try to explain the basic/background stuff
to the main thing first:
1. Adds a new remote that allows a human to function like an AI. It
controls a fly that will fly around the station slowly, and when it
reaches a machine then the person can interact with it as if they were
an AI. This required changing a lot of silicon/AI checks with one that
also checks for this remote, and some messing with shared ui state.
2. Moves req_access from the obj and bot to ``/atom/movable`` which lets
it be shared between the two, no more copy-paste and one side lacking
features/checks/signals the other has.
3. Adds a check for AI config for AI-related station traits, which was
lacking prior
Now for the good part...
Adds a new station trait that replaces the AI with a Human.
This person is equipped with an AI headset (including Binary), an
advanced camera console, an omni door wand, the machine controller, and
their laws.
They are immune to the SAT's turrets (even if set to target borgs) and
are slow outside of the SAT, mimicing the actions of the AI.
They interact with the world through their advanced camera console,
which allows them to do most AI stuff needed, and the holopad they can
connect to without having to ring first (like Command can).
They are given a paper with the laws they must follow, but since they
are human they are able to bend it. Cyborgs that run the default lawset
are "slaved" to them via an unremovable law 0, so the Human AI can bend
the laws if they really need to (for their own survival n such), and
make the cyborgs obey their commands above laws, but in general this
shouldn't be a frequent occurrence. This does take into account the
unique AI trait, so it's not guaranteed Asimov.
When this station trait rolls, all Intellicards, AI uploads, and AI core
boards are destroyed and are unresearchable. They can be spawned by
admins in-game if necessary. Maybe in the future we can also exclude
Oldstation from this but I haven't really decided.
Extra perks:
Human AI spawns with a Robotic voicebox (unless they are a body purist)
and teleport blocking implant, so they can't use teleporters to bypass
their on-station slowdown.
They also have an infinite laser pointer that can be used to blind
through their camera console. This is unfortunately nerfed from the
recent borg balance PR that removed its stun. This was meant to be the
alternative to no longer being able to permanently lock borgs down like
AIs can (or more than one, for that matter).
They aren't affected by Roburgers, Acid, and Fuel's toxicity.
Bots salute them like they do Beepsky (which is now a trait)
They spawn with SyndEye to replace the AI's tracking ability
They do not have a bank account
### The machine remote
The machine remote has a little fly in it that flies to the machines it
is pointed to, working as the arms and legs of the Human AI. It scans
the machine and punches in the action the AI does, and is how the AI
accesses basically anything. This fly slowly moves from one machine to
the next, and can be recalled with Alt Click.
It works on machines and bots.

## Why It's Good For The Game
I've seen a funny screenshot one day of a person replacing the AI by
using a bunch of door remotes, camera console, crew monitoring console,
and a few other things. I've been thinking about that for a few years
and really wanted to make it official if not easier to make possible,
because it is an incredibly funny interaction.
This makes it a reality, and while they aren't as powerful as regular
AIs, I think it makes for better and funnier in-game moments. With the
same weight as Cargorilla (1), I hope this wouldn't be rolling too often
and ruin rounds, but instead show off the different capabilities that
Humans and AIs can do, to do the job of an AI. You win some you lose
some.

## About The Pull Request
Implements half of this (with some minor changes):
The ultimate goal of this is to split our attack chain in two:
- One for non-combat item interactions
- Health analyzer scanning
- using tools on stuff
- surgery
- Niche other interactions
- One for combat attacking
- Item hit thing, item deal damage.
- Special effects on attack would go here.
This PR begins this by broadining tool act into item interact.
Item interact is a catch-all proc ran at the beginning of attack chain,
before `pre_attack` and such, that handles the first part of the chain.
This allows us to easily catch item interaction and cancel the attack
part of the chain by using deliberate bitflag return values, rather than
`TRUE` / `FALSE`*.
*Because right now, `TRUE` = `cancel attack`, no matter what, which is
unclear to people.
Instead of moving as much as possible to the new proc in this PR, I
started by doing some easy, obvious things. More things can be moved in
the future, or technically they don't even need to move in a lot of
cases.

## About The Pull Request
Does what it says on the tin. We don't have any "special" sources of
clone damage left in the game, most of them are rather trivial so I
bunched them together into this PR.
Notable things removed:
- Clonexadone, because its entire thing was centered around clone damage
- Decloner gun, it's also centered around cloning damage, I couldn't
think of a replacement mechanic and nobody uses it anyways
- Everything else already dealt clone damage as a side (rainbow knife
deals a random damage type for example), so these sources were removed
<!-- Describe The Pull Request. Please be sure every change is
documented or this can delay review and even discourage maintainers from
merging your PR! -->
## Why It's Good For The Game
Consider the four sources of normal damage that you can get: Brute,
Burn, Toxins and Oxygen. These four horsemen of the apocalypse are very
well put together and it's no surprise that they are in the game, as you
can fit any way of damaging a mob into them. Getting beaten to death by
a security officer? Brute damage. Running around on fire? Burn damage.
Poisoned or irradiated? Toxin damage. Suffocating in space? Brute, burn
and oxygen damage. Technically there's also stamina damage but that's
its own ballpark and it also makes sense why we have a damage number for
it.
Picture this now: We have this cool mechanic called "clone pods" where
you can magically revive dead people with absolute ease. We don't want
it to be for free though, it comes at a cost. This cost is clone damage,
and it serves to restrain people from abusing cloning.
Fast forward time a bit and cloning is now removed from the game. What
stays with us is a damage number that is intrinsically tied to the
context of a removed feature. It was a good idea that we had it for that
feature at the time, but now it just sits there. It's the odd one out
from all the other damage types. You can easily explain why your blade
dealt brute damage, but how are you going to fit clone damage into any
context without also becoming extremely specific?
My point is: **clone damage is conceptually a flawed mechanic because it
is too specific**. That is the major issue why no one uses it, and why
that makes it unworthy of being a damage stat.
Don't take my word for it though, because a while ago we only had a
handful of sources for this damage type in the game. And in most of the
rounds where you saw this damage, it came from only one department. It's
not worthwhile to keep it around as a damage number. People also didn't
know what to do with this damage type, so we currently have two ways of
healing clone damage: Cryotubes as a roundstart way of healing clone
damage and Rezadone, which instantly sets your clone damage to 0 on the
first tick. As a medical doctor, when was the last time you saw someone
come in with clone damage and thought to yourself, "Oh, this person has
clone damage, I cannot wait to heal them!" ?
Now we have replacements for these clone damage sources. Slimes? Slime
status effect that deals brute instead of clone. Cosmic heretics? Random
organ damage, because their mechanics are already pretty fleshed out.
Decloning virus? The virus operated as a "ticking timebomb" which used
cloning damage as the timer, so it has been reworked to not use clone
damage. What remains after all this is now a basically unused damage
type. Every specific situation that used clone damage is now relying on
another damage type. Now it's time to put clone damage to rest once and
for all.
Sure, you can technically add some form of cellular degradation in the
future, but it shouldn't be a damage number. The idea of your cells
being degraded is a cool concept, don't get me wrong, but make it a
status effect or maybe even a wound for that matter.
<!-- Argue for the merits of your changes and how they benefit the game,

## About The Pull Request
refactors bots into basic bots. i decided to do medibots first because
they were the most complex bots and wanted to get them out of the way
first. if this pr gets merged then i will be rolling out the rest of the
bot refactors over the next months
medibots can now wear any type of hats! some of these hats can trigger
unique new recorded voicelines and interactions!
## Why It's Good For The Game
converts medbots into basic medbots. they are now a bit more responsive
than before but overall they should act similarly to how they did. also
adds the basic bot ai framework which has all the generic bot behaviors
that the next bots may or may not need to have in their ai. i tried my
best to improve their code and turned some of their bitflags into define
bitfields. this pr may need a careful review because i did it from
scratch as the old bot project branch was too outdated for me to use
