## About The Pull Request
If something harddels with its reference still in ``open_containers``
due to whatever reasons, it will permanently brick HUDs of anyone who
had that storage open until their mob or HUD is reset by admins,
rendering the game completely unplayable. I'm not sure what exactly went
wrong as ``COMSIG_ATOM_EXITED`` should handle deletions already, but
[this runtime
log](https://terry-logs.tgstation13.org/2025/10/20/round-257110/runtime.log)
contains some info if anyone is willing to poke at the issue more.
I know this technically "silences the real problem" but the issue is
harddels caused by storage not being informed of item deletion, its
logged as a harddel and shouldn't brick clients while at it.
## Changelog

fix: Fixed an issue which could randomly completely break a player's
visuals until an admin resets their HUD

## About The Pull Request
Technically, this PR introduces the cuffable_item element and the
cuffed_item status effect and their relative code.
In more player-friendly terms, this allows the ability to use handcuffs
to bind certain items to your hands by right-clicking it with a pair of
handcuffs in your active hand. This makes the item unable to be dropped,
for better or worse, until you or someone else remove said cuffs. And
no, this doesn't conflict with the ability to be handcuffed if you're
silly enough to think that.
There are more than one way to remove the cuffs. For the player with the
item cuffed to their hand, to remove the cuffs they can either click the
status alert, or examine the item and click the relative hyperlink. The
second option is good to have if for some reason the status alert
doesn't show up (too many alerts etc.).
For other people, they can remove the cuffs by opening the strip
inventory menu (the one you open by click-dragging the sprite of person
with the item onto yours). It's an alternative action specific to this
status effect (therefore only held items). Until the cuffs are removed,
trying to remove the item **directly** will bring you nowhere **because
the item is stuck to their hands**, duh. Alternatively you can just chop
their arm off. You do what you do.
For a list of items that can be bound with cuffs (suggestions welcome):
- briefcases
- toolboxes
- lockboxes
- first aid kits
- shields (they generally have handles and all. gameplay-wise they
already take away one hand slot to use. Using cuffs seals the deal: no
swapping items on the go, so no two-handed weapons, but you won't drop
the shield until it's broken)
- jerrycans (Kryson's suggestion)
- soup pots (ditto, kinda weird)
- coffee mugs, and the mauna mug (ditto)
- buckets
- plushes (silly stuff, if you ever want to arrest a plush or test the
feature)
- pet carriers
- mining drills
- swords with closed guards (ERT chainsaw-sword, cap's sabre, parsnip
sabre, cutlass, e-cutlass...)
- crutches and the white cane
- baskets
- flashlights and lamps (not subtypes like flares, glowsticks and
torches)
- TTVs
- chairs
## Why It's Good For The Game
This opens up for some emergent use for handcuffs beside people (or
prisoner shoes). Inspired by a scene of some 1998 action movie, where
one of the bad guys had the mc guffin briefcase latched to his wrist
with a pair of handcuffs.
Codewise, it was also a reason to refactor bits of code like handcuffs
and screen alerts slightly. On a sidenote, actual sprites for
cult/heretic shackles.
## Changelog
🆑
add: You can now bind certain items like briefcases, toolboxes, medkits,
shields, jerrycans etc. to your hand with a pair of handcuffs,
preventing them from being dropped. You can remove said binds at any
time unless incapacitated, and so can others through the strip inventory
menu.
qol: The appearance of a screen alert now updates if the object it
represents (like, an item offered by another player) changes appearance.
imageadd: The shadow shackles item (from cult magic and heretic
sacrifices) now has its own icon.
/🆑
## About The Pull Request
Closes#93221 as it incorporates a better version of the fix in said PR.
hud_used could exist without a client (such as if the player logged out
temporarily) and the elements in the list were not removed when an item
was taken out of storage. This could result in harddels, which would
fill the list with nulls and lead to the following runtime which would
prevent all further UI updates on the mob, including planemaster
rebuilds
```js
The following runtime has occurred 161 time(s).
runtime error: wrong type of value for list
proc name: show hud (/datum/hud/proc/show_hud)
source file: code/_onclick/hud/hud.dm,347
usr: Doctors-The-Smiles (/mob/living/carbon/human)
src: /datum/hud/human (/datum/hud/human)
```
Fixes#93212
~~This is ***not*** a solution to #93212 (or at least I think so, there
is a separate filter issue), but it could also break planemasters on a
mob.~~

## About The Pull Request
Hey so remember that TV thing I added, and I wanted it to be useful for
overflow jobs so I added it in, but couldn't make it look good with
runechat so I made it only appear post-roundstart, rendering it utterly
useless?
Yeah, I do too, so I've come back to fix it with the help of stealing
other people's code (I'm a lazy individual) - Taking Absolucy's work in
https://github.com/Monkestation/Monkestation2.0/pull/4589 for this.
Now it shows an icon of the job with an active overflow under the TV's
effects, and has a tooltip if you hover over in case you don't
understand what it's demonstrating.
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/97489f93-f40d-47f9-aea2-6cc32c8fcba3
## Why It's Good For The Game
The TV shows overflow information before the round starts, allowing
people to actually see and react to the information rather than only
being shown to latejoiners. I prefer it this way as I don't want to have
to ensure the different things we may put on the TV's runetext all shows
up properly.
## Changelog
🆑 Absolucy, JohnFulpWillard
image: The Lobby TV now shows an icon of the overflow job.

## About The Pull Request
Closes https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/issues/92260
When players do things that make the HUD change (like lie down (_yes,
sleep button also counts_), change the HUD style with F12...), the open
inventories (backpacks, belts, etc.) close. This is because the
show_hud() thing does a whole screen redraw (???) and doesn't save the
open inventory things.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Players don't need to open the inventory window again and again.
## Changelog
🆑
fix: containers no longer close unexpectedly when the HUD refreshes
(e.g., when lying down/getting up)
/🆑
## About The Pull Request
update_filters() is more expensive than it should be due to running
timSort every time a filter is added or removed, plus we wipe
re-initialize the entire atom filter list every time we call it. I
swapped it to use binary insertion into the main list, and we can cut
down on the amount of filter churn by storing filters in a separate list
which we can use Insert on, which allows us to stop constantly deleting
and recreating filters completely.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Server CPU consumption go down
## Changelog
🆑
refactor: Refactored filters to utilize binary insertion instead of
timSort. The server should run somewhat faster now, hopefully.

Revival of https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/pull/79691
A while back, I made this PR, but lost motivation after diving too deep
into the code soup of can_breathe and related procs. Now, I have removed
those parts, and have simplified that part of the code to the point I
think it's ready for review.

<summary>Details</summary>
Asthma is a 4 point negative quirk that emulates real life asthma. It
works by slowly decreasing the amount of pressure each breath you take
receives, until your lungs completely seal, ensuring death if you dont
get oxyloss meds/windpipe surgery.
Inflammation (the tracker for intensity) increases whenever you breathe
smoke, use a cigarette, metabolize histimine, or suffer an asthma
attack.
Asthma attacks have a low chance of happening every second, starting 10
minutes after you spawn and with a 20-30 grace period between attacks.
They are "diseases" that cant be outright cured by albuterol, only put
into remission. They increase inflammation at varying rates depending on
their severity, with extreme asthma attacks being a immediate threat to
your life while mild ones might not even cause inflammation. The
response to these is always the same - use your inhaler before you start
choking.
Asthmatics start with a rescue inhaler, a low-capacity inhaler loaded
with albuterol, which I will get to later.
Albuterol is a new medicine thats a little tricky to make but still
doable. It can be efficiently created with inverse convermol, or
transmutated from salbutamol and convermol. The opposite is true, with
albuterol able to be turned into salbutamol. Two canisters are available
in chemvends.
Upon use, it increases the virtual pressure of all breaths taken by 40%.
This allows for you to breathe in lower pressure environments, as well
as enhancing the effects of things like healium.
It's OD causes your diaphram to spasm, causing sporadic losebreath and
forced breathing.
Inhalers are a fancy new reagent application apparatus that uses the
INHALE reagent bitflag.
Inhalers themselves are rather unremarkable, they are merely the method
of using inhaler canisters (they also have a rotary display
approximating the uses left in a canister - just like real life
inhalers).
Inhaler canisters are the reagent containers, and are generally low
capacity. They can only be used in a inhaler, and contain aerosolized
chemicals.
Inhaler canisters and inhalers are unlocked from chemical synthesis, and
are printable for cheap from a medlathe.
In order to use a inhaler, one must uncover the mouth of a carbon and
wait a few seconds (its faster if its a self-application) before a small
amount of the reagents are delivered via the INHALE bitflag. This only
works on things currently breathing - if theyre dead, have no lungs, or
just, arent breathing - it will fail. This includes asthmatics with 100%
inflammation.

Sprites are not mine; they are from swanni and I can NOT sprite for the
life of me
## Why It's Good For The Game
1. Asthma is just cool. One of my favorite features on bay was the fact
lung damage required you to turn up the pressure on your O2 tank to
survive, and this does precisely that.
2. Its always fun to add new ways to interact with atmos as a player
that arent grossly broken, and I fail to see how a 40% increase of gas
intake will really affect balance too badly.
3. Inhalers are badass.
## Changelog
🆑
add: Asthma quirk, based on IRL asthma
add: Inhalers, a new reagent administering method that uses INHALE
add: Albuterol, a new reagent that increases the amount of gas you
inhale by 40%
balance: Inverse convermol now forms once the reaction is done, not on
metabolize

## About The Pull Request
Fixes#85028
Obscured flags and covered flags are tracked on carbons, updated as
items are equipped and unequipped. It's that shrimple.
Closes#92760
Just removes the species exception checks for not making sense
Also refactors handcuffs / legcuffs removal. In all of these situations
they were hardcoded when they could easily just use an inventory proc to
work.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Stops a million excessive calls to `check_obscured_slots`
Makes obscured behavior more consistent
Makes obscured behavior easier to use
Cleans up human rendering (There was some cursed stuff before with
render item -> updated obscured -> update body -> cause side effects)
## Changelog

del: Golems which somehow manage to grow wings and somehow manage to
equip something that covers their jumpsuit can no longer fly.
(Seriously, this will not affect anyone)
refactor: Refactored clothing obscurity entirely. Items should be a
loooot more consistent and what covers what, and should update a lot
snappier. As always, report any oddities, like mysteriously disappearing
articles of clothing, hair, or species parts
refactored: Refactored handcuffs and legcuffs a bit, report any odd

Implements a poor imitation of specular surfaces by encoding "shinyness"
into blue channel of emissive overlays, which allows some pixels to be
more illuminated than others (by applying lighting multiplied by
specular mask onto them a second time)
This means that hazard vests, engineering coats, security jackets and
firefighter suits no longer outright glow in the dark, but instead
amplify light so even the tiniest amounts make them highly visible. I
made a pass through all of our emissive overlays and converted ones that
made sense into bloom-less/specular ones.

Reworks the Voidwalker into a basic mob, including a lot of the balance
and mechanics!

**🟨Voidwalker mob changes🟨**
No longer a human species and no more void eater. Instead deals damage
by simple unarmed attacks.
Instead of dealing brute, the voidwalker does oxygen damage (4-5 hits to
knock out) with left-click, and slight brute on right click. Non-human
mobs automatically take brute damage instead of oxygen damage.
150 HP
33% burn armor
Yes it has hands, but it can only pick up and drop stuff
**🟨Window phase🟨**
Instead of needing to smash a window with the void eater, moving through
windows simply leaves them passable for 5 seconds. Makes kidnapping a
lot easier, but also makes it easier for people to chase you
People who used the voided skull also leave windows passable for a short
bit.
**🟩Cosmic Charge🟩**
Standard charge ability, but only lets you charge towards space and
works while dragging people
**🟩The Vomitwalker🟩**
People you kidnapped now occasionally do the nebula vomit, which
voidwalkers can use to dive from and into
Diving into it is very fast but also removes the nebula vomit. You can
also kidnap people into the vomit (this doesn't remove the vomit).
There is also a little UI for tracking this. Clicking it while in space
dive teleports you to the next nebula vomit, if there are any.
**🟨Voided people changes🟨**
Kidnapped people and people that used the cosmic skull are no longer
muted, but take 10% extra brute and occasionally leave behind glass
shards when taking a lot of damage.
Are no longer obliterated on a second encounter with voidwalkers.
Voidwalkers can't hurt people they've already voided (unless they really
want to), but instead just knock them out for 30s
Also the kidnapped do space vomit as I said earlier.
**🟩Sunwalker🟩**
Voidwalker variant made for pure murderbone. Has no camo and kindap
mechanics, but has a fiery charge, loads of damage and area igniting and
people ignition. It's admin, but I might change this later once I've had
some more time to think about it.
Other changes:
- Voidwindows no longer need to be space adjacent
- Unsettle works faster but can't be used in combat anymore
- Space camo now grants complete space invisibility
- Makes a lot of aspects easily moddable, so we can easily mod it into a
moistwalker in-game
- Taking a cosmic skull when you already used one gives you the old
voidwalker void eater arm. Additional uses just gives you more void
eater arms until you run out of hands
- I definitely forgot a lot more
- I made a cool voidwalker hud! It even has a unique space camo toggle
<details>
<summary>Lot of text</summary>
Voidwalker was basically a snowflaked toghether human species because I
didn't know how to sprite, but I was able to work with species and
visual effects. Then I realized I can just commission sprites!
This also let me just cut out a lot of the snowflake code, because it's
no longer a human so half the things I didn't want them to be able to
do, they just literally cannot do.
Voidwalkers were in a bit of strange spot with kidnapping? There was
essentially no incentive, other than "smash spaceman = funny". They also
had issues doing, anything? There's surprisingly little space on a space
station, especially maps such as tram. Making the voided victims have
nebula vomit gives the voidwalker a reason to WANT to kidnap, by giving
them a way to appear basically anywhere on the station. I don't think
it's too overpowered. Voided people don't vomit that much, it's easily
cleanable and diving into it removes them, so they're limited usability.
Replacing the brute damage with oxygen damage also kinda... just makes
sense? I seriously contemplated letting them do stamina damage for the
first iteration, but opted not to do it because stamina damage has so
many hooks attached. Oxygen damage doesn't! It's also just incredibly
thematic, let's them bypass most armor and makes them more suited to
non-letha kidnappings.
Space camo making them completely invisible was also long overdue. It
was literally just urging people to turn up their gamma and turn down
their parallax settings. I thought it was an interesting mechanic, but
it's just straight up unfair and doesn't belong in a multiplayer game.
They now more frequently leave behind little glass shards, leave
particles from nebula vomit they leave from and have more unique sound
effects, so attentive (and lucky) people can still deduce if an area is
safe-ish.
I removed being able to shatter voided people because the mechanic was
deeply misunderstood. It was intended to give them a means of removing
people if they kept incessently bothering the voidwalker, but people
went out of their way to use this to roundremove people they had already
voided. The 30s sleep conveys my intention a lot better, and fits better
now that the voidwalker benefits from having as many voided people
vomitting all over the place.
The cosmic charge gives them some much needed survivability. My
experiences (in observing voidwalkers, I can never get the roll ;_;) is
that they're constantly one mistake away from complete obliteration. The
cosmic charge let's them get out quick despite their slow movement speed
in gravity. It also makes them stronger when fighting in space.
They got 33% burn armor so it's a tiny bit harder to wipe them away in a
single laser salvo, while still giving people ample opportunity to fight
them off . Also they're like glass or something so it fits thematically.
I gave them hands because I thought it was cool, might be a mistake idk
