## About The Pull Request
Buffed how much power solars make, and made them upgradeable!
## Why It's Good For The Game
Currently as it stands, its almost never worth the effort to set up
solars.
1. They take to long to set up. You can easily spend 10-20 minutes
setting up solars by yourself. You can setup the SM in less then 3.
2. The power they make is lackluster.
A fully setup solar array on meta station is around 240 solar panels.
About 60 per array. For all the effort required to set them up, you get
(240 panels x 1.5kw) 360kw of power. That's anywhere from 1/3 to 1/5th
of the SMs power (about 1 - 1.5 mw). This is assuming they are all
running at full power, because they fluctuate depending on where the sun
is.
All this is to say that cant power the station with only solars.
Therefore I'm buffing each solar panel to give 2.5kw instead of 1.5kw.
This means, by setting up the default amount of solars, you get (240
panels x 2.5kw) 600kw at best. About half of the SM.
You can now use different types of glass on solars to get more power off
them. Glass gives 2.5kw, titanium glass gives 5kw, plasma glass gives
7.5kw, plastitanium glass gives 10kw. 👍
## Changelog
🆑
balance: solars now make 2.5kw each instead of 1.5kw
feature: you can upgrade solars using different non-reinforced glass to
get more power out of them (glass, titaniumglass, plasmaglass,
plastitaniumglass) (they also have sprites so you can tell which is
which)

## About The Pull Request
Partially a port of
https://github.com/DaedalusDock/daedalusdock/pull/1163 which is a port
of my own code from bitbus
Closes#88579
Instead of manually setting hud images and positioning we now can use
set_hud_image_state which also updates their position to ensure that
they scale with the owner atom. HUDs had RESET_COLOR and RESET_TRANSFORM
but no KEEP_APART, so they were stuck with mobs all this time. I
replaced RESET_TRANSFORM with PIXEL_SCALE (shouldn't be reserved to mob
huds only to be honest) and added KEEP_APART, so that HUDs still
scale/rotate with their owner but don't inherit their color. Also fixed
the dragon issue, that's where this PR actually started.
Closes https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/issues/45411
## Why It's Good For The Game
I don't want my HUDs to be pretty pink when I make a barbie Clarke.

## About The Pull Request
This PR significantly enhances how zero-g movement works. Its no longer
locked to one of 8 directions, everything now has inertia and is
affected by weight. This means that throwing a piece of wire will no
longer completely reverse your movement direction, and that being thrown
out of mass driver no longer will slow you down to a halt at some point.
This leads to following gameplay changes:
* Guns now accelerate you. Ballistics have higher acceleration than
lasers, and higher calibers have higher acceleration than smaller ones.
This means that firing full-auto weapons in zero-g will make you drift
and accelerate significantly. While this can be a hilarious way to
travel in space, it makes using them trickier.
* Impacting a wall or an object while moving at high speeds will cause
you to violently crash into it as if you were thrown. Careful when
exploring!
* Jetpacks now have inertia. Changes introduced in #84712 have been
mostly reverted, although speed buff has been reduced to 0.3 instead of
0.5 (although this is compensated by new movement mechanics, so overall
speed should be roughly equal). All MODsuit jetpacks now possess the
speed boost. Advanced MODsuit jets (which has also been added back) and
captain's jetpack instead have higher acceleration and stabilization
power, providing much more precise control over your movement.
* Firing guns while moving on a jetpack will partially negate your
pack's acceleration, slowing you down. Non-advanced jetpacks'
stabilization is not enough to compensate for heavy caliber weaponry as
sniper rifles, shotguns or rocket launchers.
* You no longer instantly decelerate upon sliding along a wall. Instead,
it may take a few tiles if you are moving at extreme speeds. Passing
over lattices still allows you to grab onto them!
As space movement is angle-based instead of dir-based now, its much more
smooth than before due to using new movement logic.
Example of jetpack stabilization in action:
https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/assets/44720187/6761a4fd-b7de-4523-97ea-38144b8aab41
And, of course, you can do this now.
**This pull request requires extensive gameplay testing before
merging**, as a large amount of numbers have been picked arbitrarily in
an attempt to keep consistency with previous behavior (guns and
normal-sized items applying 1 drift force, which is equal to what
everything applied before this PR). Jetpacks and impacts may also
require adjustments as to not be frustrating to use.
Closes#85165
## Why It's Good For The Game
Zero-G refactor - currently our zero-g movement is rather ugly and can
be uncomfortable to work with. A piece of cable being able to accelerate
you the same as a duffelbag full of items when thrown makes no sense,
and so does instantly changing directions. Inertia-based version is
smoother and more intuitive. This also makes being thrown into space
more of a hazard (possibly opening the door for explosive
decompressions?)
Jetpack inertia and gun changes - this is mostly a consequence of
inertia-based movement. However, zero-g combat being preferred during
modes like warops was an issue due to it negatively affecting everyone
without jetpacks which are in limited supply onboard. This reverts the
mobility changes which severely impacted space exploration, while making
zero-g combat more dangerous and having it require more skill to be a
viable option.
## What's left
- [x] Refactor moth wings to use jetpack code
- [x] Refactor functional wings to use jetpack code
- [x] Locate and fix a recursion runtime that sometimes occurs upon
splattering against a wall
- [x] Add craftable tethers and modify engineering MOD tethers to use
the same system
## Changelog
🆑
add: You can now craft tether anchors, which can be secured with a
wrench and attached to with right click. They won't let you drift into
space and you can adjust tether length/cut it via lmb/rmb/ctrl click on
the wire.
add: MOD tethers now remotely place and connect to tether anchors
instead of throwing you at where they landed.
balance: MOD tethers can now be used in gravity
balance: Jetpacks are now inertia-based.
balance: Guns can accelerate you significantly in zero-g.
balance: All jetpacks now give you equal speed buff, however advanced
MOD ion jets and captain's jetpack have higher acceleration/deceleration
values.
refactor: Refactored zero-g movement to be inertia-based and utilize
angles instead of directions.

## What's going on here
Kept you waitin huh!
This pr resprites most all walls, windows and other "wall adjacent"
things to a 3/4th perspective, technical term is "tall" walls (we are
very smart).
If you're trying to understand the technical details here, much of the
"rendering tech" is built off the idea of split-vis. Basically, split a
sprite up and render it on adjacent turfs, to prevent seeing "through"
walls/doors, and to support seeing "edges" without actually seeing the
atom itself.
Most of the rest of it is pipelining done to accommodate how icons are
cut.
## Path To Merge
Almost* all sprites and code is done at this point.
There are some things missing both on and off the bounty list, but that
will be the case forever unless we force upstream (you guys) to stop
adding new shit that doesn't fit the style.
I plan on accepting and integrating prs to the current working repo
<https://github.com/wall-nerds/wallening> up until a merge, to make
contribution simpler and allow things like bounties to close out more
easily
This pr is quite bulky, even stripping away map changes it's maybe 7000
LOC (We have a few maps that were modified with UpdatePaths, I am also
tentatively pring our test map, for future use.)
This may inhibit proper review, although that is part of why I am
willing to make it despite my perfectionism. Apologies in advance.
Due to the perspective shift, a lot of mapping work is going to need to
be done at some point. This comes in varying levels of priority. Many
wallmounts are offset by hand, some are stuck in the wall/basically
cannot be placed on the east/west/north edges of walls (posters), some
just don't look great good in their current position.
Tests are currently a minor bit yorked, I thought it was more important
to get this up then to clean them fully.
## What does it look like?

<summary>Historical Mumbojumbo</summary>
I am gonna do my best to document how this project came to be. I am
operating off third party info and half remembered details, so if I'm
wrong please yell at me.
This project started sometime in late 2020, as a product of Rohesie
trying to integrate and make easier work from Mojave Sun (A recently
defunct fallout server) with /tg/.
Mojave Sun (Apparently this was LITERALLY JUST infrared baron, that man
is insane) was working with tall walls, IE walls that are 48px tall
instead of the normal 32. This was I THINK done based off a technical
prototype from aao7 proving A it was possible and B it didn't look like
dogwater.
This alongside oranges begging the art team for 3/4th walls (he meant
TGMC style) lead to Rohesie bringing on contributors from general /tg/,
including actionninja who would eventually take over as technical lead
and Kryson, who would define /tg/'s version of the artstyle. Much of the
formative aspects of this project are their work.
The project was coming along pretty well for a few months, but ran into
serious technical issues with `SIDE_MAP`, a byond map_format that allows
for simpler 3/4th rendering.
Due to BULLSHIT I will not detail here, the map format caused issues
both at random with flickering and heavily with multiz.
Concurrent with this, action stepped down after hacking out the
rendering tech and starting work on an icon cutter that would allow for
simpler icon generation, leaving ninjanomnom to manage the project.
Some time passed, and the project stalled out due to the technical
issues. Eventually I built a test case for the issues we had with
`SIDE_MAP` and convinced lummox jr (byond's developer) to explain how
the fuckin thing actually worked. This understanding made the project
theoretically possible, but did not resolve the problems with multi-z.
Resolving those required a full rework of how rendering like, worked. I
(alongside tattle) took over project development from ninjanomnom at
this time, and started work on Plane Cube (#69115), which when finished
would finally make the project technically feasible.
The time between then and now has been slow, progressive work. Many many
artists and technical folks have dumped their time into this (as you can
see from the credits). I will get into this more below but I would like
to explicitly thank (in no particular order) tattle, draco, arcanemusic,
actionninja, imaginos, viro and kylerace for keeping the project alive
in this time period. I would have curled up into a ball and died if I
had to do this all myself, your help has been indispensable.

it was viro
Wallem: Artistic review and consultation, was my go-to guy for a long
time when the other two spritetainers were inactive
Waltermeldon: Cracked out a bunch of rendering work, he's the reason

And finally:
The Mojave Sun development team. They provided a testbed for the idea,
committed hundreds and hundreds of hours to the artstyle, and were a
large reason we caught issues early enough to meaningfully deal with
them. Your work is a testament to what longterm effort and deep detailed
care produce. I hope you're doing well whatever you're up to. Go out
with a bang!

## About The Pull Request
This refactors how machines are deconstructed in the following ways
- You can no longer override `obj/machinery/deconstruct()`. If you want
customized behaviour then override `on_deconstruction()` instead.
This comes with the added benifit of no longer needing to check for the
`NO_DECONSTRUCTION` flag because the machine base proc does that for us
& if it finds that flag it won't proceed to call `on_deconstruction()`
meaning no machine will have a chance to spawn anything which is the
current behaviour.
This is required to make #81290 work for all machines at least so that
machine can send the `COMSIG_OBJ_DECONSTRUCT` signal without subtypes
overriding & forgetting to call the parent proc
- `dump_contents()` only gets called when the machine is deconstructed
not destroyed thus not leaving behind any of its contents inside. Fixes

This flag only worked on the `/obj/structure` and `/obj/machinery`
level, so let's rescope it from `flags_1` and put it where it belongs -
`obj_flags`.
Bitflag operators should be scoped to their subtype specific bitfield,
not really useful to have this take up a spot on the `/atom` level if
absolutely nothing other than `/obj`s use it.

## About The Pull Request
Adds support to underlays to realize_overlays
Ensures decals properly handle plane offsets
Fixes space lighting double applying if it's changeturf'd into. this
will be important later
Makes solar vis_contents block emissives as expected
Moves transit tube overlays to update_overlays, adds emissive blockers
to them
#### Adds render steps
An expansion on render_target based emissive blockers.
They allow us to hijack an object's appearance and draw it somewhere
else, or even modify it, THEN draw it somewhere else.
They chain quite nicely
Fixes shuttles deleting z holder objects
#### Makes space emissive, makes walls and floors block emissives
The core idea here goes like this:
We make space glow, and give its overlays some color
This way, the tile and space parallax remain fullbright, along with
anything that doesn't block emissives, but anything that does block
emissives will instead get shaded the color of starlight
This requires a bit of extra work, see later
This is done automatically with render relays, which now support
specifiying layer and color (Need to make an editor for these one of
these days)
The emissive blocking floor stuff requires making a second render plate
to prevent double scaling
Also adds some new layering defines for lighting, and ensures all turf
lights have a layer. We'll get to this soon
#### Makes things in space blue
We color them the same as starlight, by taking advantage of space being
emissive
This means that things in space that block emissive will block it
correctly and be colored blue by the light overlay, but space itself
will remain fullbright
This does require redefining what always_lit means, but nothing but
cordons use that so it's fineee
#### Makes glass above space glow, and some other stuff
Glass tiles that sit above space will now shine light with matching
color to the glasses color. This includes mat tiles.
Glass tiles (not mat because they have no alpha) also only partially
block emissives.
Adds a new proc that uses render steps to acomplish this, essentially
we're cutting out bits below X alpha and drawing what remains as an
emissive.
#### Modifies partial space showing to support glow
Essentially, alongside displaying space as an underlay, we also display
a light overlay colored like starlight.
That starlight overlay gets masked to only be visible in bits that do
not contain any alpha.
We also mask the turf lighting to not go into bits that have no alpha,
to ensure we get the effect we want.
This is done with that lighting layer thing I mentioned earlier.
#### Makes appearance realization's list output ordered
I want it output in order of overlay, sub overlay suboverlay, next
overlay
Need to use insert for that
## Why It's Good For The Game
Pretty!
Also having space be emissive is a very very good way to test for fucked
emissive blockers (If it's broken why are we even drawing the overlay)
I know for a fact mob blockers on lizards and socks are kinda yorked, I
think there's more

Makes the code compatible with 515.1594+
Few simple changes and one very painful one.
Let's start with the easy:
* puts call behind `LIBCALL` define, so call_ext is properly used in 515
* Adds `NAMEOF_STATIC(_,X)` macro for nameof in static definitions since
src is now invalid there.
* Fixes tgui and devserver. From 515 onward the tmp3333{procid} cache
directory is not appened to base path in browser controls so we don't
check for it in base js and put the dev server dummy window file in
actual directory not the byond root.
* Renames the few things that had /final/ in typepath to ultimate since
final is a new keyword
And the very painful change:
`.proc/whatever` format is no longer valid, so we're replacing it with
new nameof() function. All this wrapped in three new macros.
`PROC_REF(X)`,`TYPE_PROC_REF(TYPE,X)`,`GLOBAL_PROC_REF(X)`. Global is
not actually necessary but if we get nameof that does not allow globals
it would be nice validation.
This is pretty unwieldy but there's no real alternative.
If you notice anything weird in the commits let me know because majority
was done with regex replace.
@tgstation/commit-access Since the .proc/stuff is pretty big change.

About The Pull Request
I've reworked multiz. This was done because our current implementation of multiz flattens planes down into just the openspace plane. This breaks any effects we attach to plane masters (including lighting), but it also totally kills the SIDE_MAP map format, which we NEED for wallening (A major 3/4ths resprite of all wall and wall adjacent things, making them more then one tile high. Without sidemap we would be unable to display things both in from of and behind objects on map. Stupid.)
This required MASSIVE changes. Both to all uses of the plane var for reasons I'll discuss later, and to a ton of different systems that interact with rendering.
I'll do my best to keep this compact, but there's only so much I can do. Sorry brother.
Core idea
OK: first thing.
vis_contents as it works now squishes the planes of everything inside it down into the plane of the vis_loc.
This is bad. But how to do better?
It's trivially easy to make copies of our existing plane masters but offset, and relay them to the bottom of the plane above. Not a problem. The issue is how to get the actual atoms on the map to "land" on them properly.
We could use FLOAT_PLANE to offset planes based off how they're being seen, in theory this would allow us to create lens for how objects are viewed.
But that's not a stable thing to do, because properly "landing" a plane on a desired plane master would require taking into account every bit of how it's being seen, would inherently break this effect.
Ok so we need to manually edit planes based off "z layer" (IE: what layer of a z stack are you on).
That's the key conceit of this pr. Implementing the plane cube, and ensuring planes are always offset properly.
Everything else is just gravy.
About the Plane Cube
Each plane master (except ones that opt out) is copied down by some constant value equal to the max absolute change between the first and the last plane.
We do this based off the max z stack size detected by SSmapping. This is also where updates come from, and where all our updating logic will live.
As mentioned, plane masters can choose to opt out of being mirrored down. In this case, anything that interacts with them assuming that they'll be offset will instead just get back the valid plane value. This works for render targets too, since I had to work them into the system as well.
Plane masters can also be temporarily hidden from the client's screen. This is done as an attempt at optimization, and applies to anything used in niche cases, or planes only used if there's a z layer below you.
About Plane Master Groups
BYOND supports having different "maps" on screen at once (IE: groups of items/turfs/etc)
Plane masters cannot cover 2 maps at once, since their location is determined by their screen_loc.
So we need to maintain a mirror of each plane for every map we have open.
This was quite messy, so I've refactored it (and maps too) to be a bit more modular.
Rather then storing a list of plane masters, we store a list of plane master group datums.
Each datum is in charge of the plane masters for its particular map, both creating them, and managing them.
Like I mentioned, I also refactored map views. Adding a new mapview is now as simple as newing a /atom/movable/screen/map_view, calling generate_view with the appropriate map id, setting things you want to display in its vis_contents, and then calling display_to on it, passing in the mob to show ourselves to.
Much better then the hardcoded pattern we used to use. So much duplicated code man.
Oh and plane master controllers, that system we have that allows for applying filters to sets of plane masters? I've made it use lookups on plane master groups now, rather then hanging references to all impacted planes. This makes logic easier, and prevents the need to manage references and update the controllers.
image
In addition, I've added a debug ui for plane masters.
It allows you to view all of your own plane masters and short descriptions of what they do, alongside tools for editing them and their relays.
It ALSO supports editing someone elses plane masters, AND it supports (in a very fragile and incomplete manner) viewing literally through someone else's eyes, including their plane masters. This is very useful, because it means you can debug "hey my X is yorked" issues yourself, on live.
In order to accomplish this I have needed to add setters for an ungodly amount of visual impacting vars. Sight flags, eye, see_invis, see_in_dark, etc.
It also comes with an info dump about the ui, and plane masters/relays in general.
Sort of on that note. I've documented everything I know that's niche/useful about our visual effects and rendering system. My hope is this will serve to bring people up to speed on what can be done more quickly, alongside making my sin here less horrible.
See https://github.com/LemonInTheDark/tgstation/blob/multiz-hell/.github/guides/VISUALS.md.
"Landing" planes
Ok so I've explained the backend, but how do we actually land planes properly?
Most of the time this is really simple. When a plane var is set, we need to provide some spokesperson for the appearance's z level. We can use this to derive their z layer, and thus what offset to use.
This is just a lot of gruntwork, but it's occasionally more complex.
Sometimes we need to cache a list of z layer -> effect, and then use that.
Also a LOT of updating on z move. So much z move shit.
Oh. and in order to make byond darkness work properly, I needed to add SEE_BLACKNESS to all sight flags.
This draws darkness to plane 0, which means I'm able to relay it around and draw it on different z layers as is possible. fun darkness ripple effects incoming someday
I also need to update mob overlays on move.
I do this by realiizing their appearances, mutating their plane, and then readding the overlay in the correct order.
The cost of this is currently 3N. I'm convinced this could be improved, but I've not got to it yet.
It can also occasionally cause overlays to corrupt. This is fixed by laying a protective ward of overlays.Copy in the sand, but that spell makes the compiler confused, so I'll have to bully lummy about fixing it at some point.
Behavior changes
We've had to give up on the already broken gateway "see through" effect. Won't work without managing gateway plane masters or something stupid. Not worth it.
So instead we display the other side as a ui element. It's worse, but not that bad.
Because vis_contents no longer flattens planes (most of the time), some uses of it now have interesting behavior.
The main thing that comes to mind is alert popups that display mobs. They can impact the lighting plane.
I don't really care, but it should be fixable, I think, given elbow grease.
Ah and I've cleaned up layers and plane defines to make them a bit easier to read/reason about, at least I think.

Simply converts all instances of soundkeys that use get_sfx from strings into defines.
E.g. "sparks" is now SFX_SPARKS

It makes life a lot easier when you're looking for a sound effect. You just type SFX_ and you get suggestions in VSC. Plus, it looks better.

Changelog
Not player facing.
Converts most spans into span procs. Mostly used regex for this and sorted out any compile time errors afterwards so there could be some bugs.
Was initially going to do defines, but ninja said to make it into a proc, and if there's any overhead, they can easily be changed to defines.
Makes it easier to control the formatting and prevents typos when creating spans as it'll runtime if you misspell instead of silently failing.
Reduces the code you need to write when writing spans, as you don't need to close the span as that's automatically handled by the proc.
(Note from Lemon: This should be converted to defines once we update the minimum version to 514. Didn't do it now because byond pain and such)
Adds SIGNAL_HANDLER, a macro that sets SHOULD_NOT_SLEEP(TRUE). This should ideally be required on all new signal callbacks.
Adds BLOCKING_SIGNAL_HANDLER, a macro that does nothing except symbolize "this is an older signal that didn't necessitate a code rewrite". It should not be allowed for new work.
This comes from discussion around #52735, which yields by calling input, and (though it sets the return type beforehand) will not properly return the flag to prevent attack from slapping.
To fix 60% of the yielding cases, WrapAdminProcCall no longer waits for another admin's proc call to finish. I'm not an admin, so I don't know how many behinds this has saved, but if this is problematic for admins I can just make it so that it lets you do it anyway. I'm not sure what the point of this babysitting was anyway.
Requested by @optimumtact.

Living and machine stat vars are pretty different, one uses flags and other number-defines.
This should make some other mass-replacements and searches a bit easier.
Improves the code for the solar panels a lot. It's still pretty bad but to make it better I'd have to dive into powernets.
Solar panels visually rotate a full 360 degrees instead of being locked to ordinal directions only. In 513 this uses vis_contents, in 512 it uses a regular overlay that needs to be reset constantly.
Adds a signal from the sun SS when the sun moves.
Timed tracking is now measured in degrees per minute instead of degrees per hour.
removes materials list from items, uses custom_materials instead. This might introduce some bugs so we should testmerge this for a while (and Ill test stuff locally as much as I can)
this also adds material crafting to sheets. Test case being chairs. In the future we can add stuff like tables, walls, doors etc.
also applies materials to everything, with fixes, which can close#46299
The way stat |= BROKEN was done was a mess, this makes everywhere use obj_break with proper parent calls and adds a signal for when a machine enters the broken state.

Better code quality, more signals.
About The Pull Request
Converts every single usage of playsound's vary parameter to use the boolean define instead of 1 or 0. I'm tired of people copypasting the incorrect usage.
Also changes a couple of places where a list was picked from instead of using get_sfx internal calls
This was done via regex:
(playsound\(.+,.+,.+, ?)1( ?\)| ?,.+\)) to match 1
(playsound\(.+,.+,.+, ?)0( ?\)| ?,.+\)) to match 0
full sed commands:
/(playsound\(.+,.+,.+, ?)1( ?\)| ?,.+\))/\1TRUE\2/ 1 to TRUE
/(playsound\(.+,.+,.+, ?)0( ?\)| ?,.+\))/\1FALSE\2/ 0 to FALSE
I'm not very good with regex and these could probably be optimized, but they worked.

Please refer to #20867 and #20870 for a easier view of the changes. Those two PRs show all meaningful changes (hopefully) and doesn't show the files changed with just 3 lines changed.
This PR does three things:
It makes all children of /obj/ use the same damage system.
Previously to make your new machine/structure be destroyable you needed to give it a var/health, and its own version of many damage related proc such as bullet_act(), take_damage(), attacked_by(), attack_animal(), attack_hulk(), ex_act(), etc... But now, all /obj/ use the same version of those procs at the /obj/ level in code/game/obj_defense.dm. All these obj share the same necessary vars: obj_integrity (health), max_integrity, integrity_failure (optional, below that health level failure happens), and the armor list var which was previously only for items, as well as the resistance_flags bitfield. When you want your new object to be destroyable, you only have to give it a value for those vars and maybe override one proc if you want a special behavior but that's it. This reorganization removes a lot of copypasta (most bullet_act() version for each obj were nearly identical). Two new elements are added to the armor list var: fire and acid armor values.
How much damage an obj take depends on the armor value for each damage category. But some objects are INDESTRUCTIBLE and simply never take any damage no matter the type.
The armor categories are:
-melee(punches, item attacks, xeno/animal/hulk attacks, blob attacks, thrown weapons)
-bullet
-laser
-energy (used by projectiles like ionrifle, taser, and also by EMPs)
-bio (unused for this, only here because clothes use them when worn)
-rad (same)
-bomb (self-explanatory)
-fire (for fire damage, not for heat damage though)
-acid
For machines and structures, when their health reaches zero the object is not just deleted but gets somewhat forcedeconstructed (the proc used is shared with the actual deconstruction system) which can drops things. To not frustrates players most of these objects drop most of the elements necessary to rebuild them (think window dropping shards). Machines drop a machine frame and all components for example (but the frame can then be itself smashed to pieces).
For clothes, when they are damaged, they get a "damaged" overlay, which can also be seen when worn, similar to the "bloody" overlay.
It refactors acid. See #20537.
Some objects are ACID_PROOF and take no damage from acid, while others take varying amounts
of damage depending on their acid armor value. Some objects are even UNACIDABLE, no acid effect can even land on them. Acid on objects can be washed off using water.
It changes some aspect of damage from fires.
All /obj/ can now take fire damage and be flammable, instead of just items. And instead of having just FLAMMABLE objs that become ON_FIRE as soon as some fire touch them (paper), we now have objects that are non flammable but do take damage from fire and become ashes if their health reaches zero (only for items). The damage taken varies depending on the obj's fire armor value and total health. There's also still obj and items that are FIRE_PROOF (although some might still be melted by lava if they're not LAVA_PROOF).
When a mob is on fire, its clothes now take fire damage and can turn to ashes. Similarly, when a mob takes melee damages, its clothes gets damaged a bit and can turn to shreds. You can repair clothes with cloth that is produceable by botany's biogenerator.
It also does many minor things:
Clicking a structure/machine with an item on help intent never results in an attack (so you don't destroy a structure while trying to figure out which tool to use).
I moved a lot of objects away from /obj/effect, it should only be used for visual effects, decals and stuff, not for things you can hit and destroy.
I tweaked a bit how clothes shredding from bombs work.
I made a machine or structure un/anchorable with the wrench, I don't remember which object...
Since I changed the meaning of the FIRE_PROOF bitflag to actually mean fire immune, I'm buffing the slime extract that you apply on items to make them fire proof. well now they're really 100% fire proof!
animals with environment_smash = 1 no longer one-hit destroy tables and stuff, we give them a decent obj_damage value so they can destroy most obj relatively fast depending on the animal.
Probably a million things I forgot.
If you want to know how the damage system works all you need is the three obj vars "obj_integrity", "max_integrity", "integrity_failure", as well as the armor list var and the resistance_flags bitfield, and read the file obj_defense.dm
These are the files with just tiny tweaks. Mostly modify an object's attackby so it does "return ..()" instead of "..()".
If there are other things in this commit, the PR's description will explain them.
