EnterTheJakeandGitHub a2c7c8e57b Heretic Antagonist Full Overhaul. (#92119)
## About The Pull Request

Heretic has received a complete overhaul. This PR touches nearly every
aspect of the antagonist. For readability's sake, not every change is
going to be listed in this pull request.

For the full list of changes please refer to the design doc:

### Core changes

- Cross-pathing has been removed. Main knowledge spells are now
exclusive to their path (for the most part).

- For every main knowledge unlocked (save for the robes and the blade
upgrade), Heretics can choose one option from a draft of 3 random side
knowledges (this is a free point).

- Heretics can now purchase side knowledges from a new tab, the
"Knowledge Shop". Side-knowledges have been divided by tier (Stealth,
Defense, Summons, Combat and Main). Tiers are unlocked as you progress
toward your main path.

- Heretics now gain the grasp and mark upgrade immediately, but their
main knowledge choices cost twice as much (except for the first spell,
the robes and the blade upgrade).

- Path specific robes have been introduced! They come with their own set
of quirks.

- Each Path has received a passive ability. This passive is upgraded
when you first create your robes, and again when you complete the Ritual
of Knowledge.

- Paths have been rebalanced as a result of the removal of cross-path
progression. Cosmic and Moon paths have received soft reworks.

- Upon unlocking the path 2nd level or reaching a total of 8 points
worth of knowledge, Heretics will lose the ability to blade break (and
the limit on blades all together).

- Ascension now automatically calls the shuttle with no possibility of a
recall.

- Late join Heretic has been removed.

### New UI

/>




### Quality of life //General balance changes

- Heretics will now gain X-ray vision for a few seconds when nearby an
eldritch essence (this effect has a cooldown).

- Ritual of knowledge now requires 1 uncommon item instead of 2. You may
now use a stunprod instead of a baton to complete the ritual. Beartraps
have been removed from the list of possible reagents.

- The maximum number of possible sacrifices required to ascend has been
reduced from 6 to 5 while the minimum has been upped to 4.

- Codex Cicatrix no longer requires a special pen to be made.

### Passive abilities

- Heretics now start with a passive ability. You can find what it does
on the path info tab after a path has been selected, and what they gain
when upgraded.

- Crafting your first set of Eldritch robes will bump your passive to
level 2.

- Unlocking the 2nd level will subsequently unlock your "Ritual Of
Knowledge"

- Completing the ritual of knowledge or ascending will net you the final
level.

### Path Specific Robes

- Armorer's Ritual is no longer a side knowledge. Each path will have
their own unique version of the ritual. This is placed after the 2nd
spell in the tree.

- Robes can no longer be destroyed by fire and acid, grant t4 flash
protection (Moth Heretics stay winning) and protection against basic
syringes, to bring them on par with other antagonist's armor sets.

- The recipe to craft the robes is now a set of armor/vest, a mask (any
mask will do now, not just gas masks), plus the unique reagent required
for the blades (Plasma for Cosmic, Trash For Rust, match for Ash and so
on)

- Wearing the robes as a non-heretic may yield some unfortunate
side-effects.

### Moon Path Rework

Moon path  rework.

Moon Heretics gain immunity to brain traumas and slowly regenerate brain
health. Equipping the moon amulette channels its effects through the
moon blade; making it unblockable and cause sanity damage instead of
brute. Ring leader's Rise now summons an army of harmless clones that
explode when attacked; the explosion briefly stuns non-heretics and
cause sanity and brain damage to them. Moon blade can also now be used
when pacified and Moon spells are no longer blocked by regular anti
magic, only mind magic protection.


**Cosmic Path Rework**

Cosmic path has received the biggest batch of changes alongside Moon.
The path has been dead last in ascension and pickrate (less than 5%) for
almost 2 years. It did gain some popularity over the last few months,
reaching the highest ascension rate in the game (12%) while mantaining a
relatively low pickrate.

Cosmic sits in a weird spot, where pretty much every knowledge
surrounding the path is either mediocre or, in the case of the
ascension, dysfunctional. Yet it has maintained a smidge of relevancy
due to how quickly Cosmic heretics can capture and sacrifice targets
thanks to Star Touch.

As a result, the best course of action would be to rebalance the
entirety of the kit; granting the heretic more tools to manipulate space
and dictate the flow of a fight, while lessening their ability to end a
confrontation by instantly sleeping their opponents.

lastly The Star Gazer is now ghost controlled ; And they shoot lazers!

## Why It's Good For The Game


### Ok...but why do we want this?

Again, if you want my full reasoning, please check my doc
https://hackmd.io/@BiST8PJVRjiwVPY86U3bLQ/B11HyChz1g.

To keep it short and concise; Heretic is too complex and unintuitive for
its own good. Too impenetrable for new players and too abusable for
experienced players. This can be chalked up to a lot of poor design
decisions. But ultimately, what I believe being the biggest contributor
to the current status of Heretic is the ability to move into different
paths, also known as "Cross-Pathing".

### Cross Pathing my beloathed.

Cross-pathing, while cool in theory, overcomplicates the antagonist and
overloads them with power. Players dealing with the heretic are
incapable of working out what a given heretic can do. This also leads to
late game heretics having 3 rows Worth of action buttons and virtually
no weakness.

Over the last year, I've often received the understandable but also kind
of unfair accusations of making Heretic too powerful without a clear aim
or purpose.

My goal with the paths I've reworked over the last year (Rust,Void and
Blade) wasn't necessarily to just make them stronger (although that was
also part of the goal, as they were paths that were underperforming),
but for them to have more interactions with the sandbox and to better
live up to the fantasy presented to the player.

If an harbringer of frost gets countered by a cup of coffee, we probably
messed something up.


Unfortunately, the current incarnation of Heretic doesn't really allow
for surgical balance changes to specific paths. Every time a knowledge
gets buffed, we make every path that can easily tap onto that knowledge
stronger by default. It doesn't take a genius to understand why this
system is ultimately unsustainable.

### Blade Breaking

I feel that after a heretic has reached the near peak of their power,
they no longer need the ability to instantly escape any encounter. Check
my doc for my full reasoning.

## Less versatile, more specialized paths.

By removing cross-pathing, we remove a huge maintainability burden from
the antagonist. Paths can now be designed around clearer strengths and
weaknesses. They become easier to balance and less of an headache to
understand for everyone.

It also means we can give paths some needed quality of life quirks
without having to worry how such a change might have a knock-on effect
for other paths.

Ash heretics can finally let loose without dying by their own flames.
Cosmic Heretic can go to space without having to carry a modsuit. Moon
Heretic can use their abilities without fear of one random trauma
ruining their day, and so on.

### What a horrible night to have a curse...., wait how do I curse
people again?

As of right now the heretic tree has quite a hefty amount of trinkets
that pretty much never see use.

Partly because the tree itself is a nightmare to navigate. And partly
because why would anyone set up an elaborate plan or scheme when they
can unleash 2 rows of spell in the span of bunch of seconds.

Heretics mostly gravitate towards powers that push them towards greater,
more potent combat strength. If it doesn't contribute to killing people
quicker, it isn't worth doing for most. And given the opportunity cost
associated for taking those powers, they will remain that way so long as
there are better choices to be poached.

The new draft system encourages Heretics to play more with the tools at
their disposal. If you want to go for a specific combo from the side
path options, you may now do so by tapping into the knowledge shop.

Yes, the shop does include a few knowledges from the other paths. But
these are limited to 1 per path, are very expensive and can only be
unlocked very late into the shift.

## Drip Of the Mansus

The iconic heretic robe is actually sequestered to a side path that is
most easily access by only two paths at a time. Since heretic paths are
being made to be much more specialized, the most obvious way in which
this can be showcased is through an easily
identifiable outfit.

By using the robes, we can both telegraph WHAT heretic you are looking
at, and just how much power they've accumulated and when it is
reasonable to take the kid gloves off and treat them as a genuine
threat. If a heretic is in their
robes, that heretic is now a significantly more prominent danger to the
station.

It also serves as a useful means for gating some of the more powerful
effects of a heretic's path behind the robes, AND enable options for
disarming them of that power should they be captured without making it
something endemic to their mob.

A major problem with heretics is a lack of certainty as to how powerful
they have become. A heretics robes is one of the milestones to help
players dealing with heretics identify that.

### Will this be 100% fair and balanced?

This is a massive overhaul to a pretty complex and bloated antagonist.
I've done my best to show the changes to several maintainers and other
members of the community for their feedback. But at some point we'll
have to see how this behave in the environment to get a feel if
something is over or undertuned. (that's my way of saying, yes this is
likely gonna require a testmerge or two).

What I will say is that I'm not trying to change the core identity of
Heretic.

Heretics should have the upperhand in single encounters early on, be
able to joust a small group of players after they unlock their final
spell, and end the round when they ascend. They're a progression
antagonist. They should retain their payoff as well as pose a danger as
they grow stronger.

But if more players feel like they are more reliably able to play the
antagonist in more varied and interesting ways, rather than the
antagonist largely existing as a measuring stick for 'robustness' due to
its elitist design philosophy, then the rework has been a success. There
should be something for
everyone in the antagonist, as is true for all of our antagonist roles.

da10322dc1 Fix modsuits and defibs (#93373)
## About The Pull Request

Fixes #93359

Caused by #93165

Inventory screen elements were no longer considered reachable, which
broke mousedrop handing on objects that check "is dragging into
inventory slot"

I don't know the best way to fix this yet but I figured the next best
thing would be to make all of these use the `drag_pickup` element, which
skips this reach-ability check

Thus I refactored it slightly to accommodate for items which should
contextually not be drag-pick-up-abble and bam, works like a charm

FalloutFalconandGitHub d2f34e33be moves abstract_type up to datum, spawners wont spawn them (#92909)
## About The Pull Request
moves all implementations (im aware of) for "Im a parent type dont spawn
me please" to the datum layer to standardized behavior
adds a standerized proc for filtering out "bad" items that we dont want
spawning. applies to it the subtype vendor, gifts, and a new spawner and
mystery box for a random gun (neither playerfacing)
"port" of https://github.com/shiptest-ss13/Shiptest/pull/4621



https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/22f6f0b2-b44e-411a-b3dc-6b97dc0287aa

small warning: I dont have EVERY abstract type defined right now but,
ive done a good enough job for now. Im tired of data entry rn
## Why It's Good For The Game
standardizing behavior. Might be a micro hit to performance however

having this lets us not rely on icon state to determine whether
something is a parent type and makes it much easier to tell something is
a parent type (could be applied further to things like admin spawning
menus and things like that).

need feedback on if this is actually good for the game.
## Changelog
🆑
add: Soda cans show up in the silver slime drink table.
add: Examine tag for items that are not mean to show up ingame.
refactor: Standardizes how gifts rule out abstract types.
fix: gifts no longer check if something has an inhand, massively
expanding the list of potential items.

MrMelbertandGitHub 135a09182b Refactors obscured (#92779)
## 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

🆑 Melbert
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
situations with cuffs like getting stuck restrained

GhomandGitHub 697bdea143 The speed of tools used in a crafting recipe now affect the time spent on it (#92577)
## About The Pull Request
Title. Using better tools should now make crafting faster (or lower)
depending on the quality of the tools. This affects roughly 85% of the
crafting time, so, for every second of it, you're guaranteed to spend
0.15 seconds even if your tools are fast as light itself.

Also a nit with the main benefit of the mining skill being locked to
humans despite it being bound to the mind datum.

## Why It's Good For The Game
Tool speed previously didn't play a role in crafting. Now it does.

## Changelog

🆑
balance: The speed of tools used in a crafting recipe now affect the
time spent on it. Report any recipe that takes awfully little or too
long to complete.
balance: Non-humanoid mobs can now benefit from being skilled at mining

SmArtKarandnevimer 16aa15a136 Changes human name updates to be request-based instead of being automatically done every single tick (#92393)
## About The Pull Request

Changes human name to update whenever anything that could result in
their visible name changing occurs, such as changing IDs, equipping
gasmasks, picking potted plants, etc. Currently name updates occur every
``Life()`` tick and in a few "special" cases, which causes a lot of name
changes from sources such as equipment to not apply until the mob ticks,
and makes us waste a tiiiny bit of CPU time on name updates.
I've also slighly cleaned up human /Life() and made species'
``spec_life()`` not run when the mob is dead, as it was causing certain
unintended interactions, such as slimepeople regenerating blood while
dead.

## Why It's Good For The Game

Microoptimization, ensures that correct names are always used (in case
something could update their name but the mob hasn't ticked yet), plus
its just a cleaner implementation

John WillardandRoxy 78cffc2101 Adds a new halloween species: Spirits (#90711)
Adds 2 new species: Spirits and Ghosts

Spirits are available roundstart during Halloween, Wabbajack and
Xenobio's black slime extract
Ghosts are available through Magic mirrors

They fly around, and don't have legs and instead float around. They also
can't get legs implanted onto themselves.

They also do have organs, so they are affected by flashbangs, they do
get hungry, they do need oxygen to survive (they don't take damage in
space but they do suffocate & get slowdown), and can process chems.
Gibbing a ghost gives ectoplasm, an ingredient for ghost burgers.

Chaplains also got a buff here, null rod-type weapons' bane is now
against Spirit mobs, rather than hardcoded revenants. This means it now
includes Spirits/Ghosts, but also Soulscythes & Cult shades.

Also re-adds https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/pull/81630 which was
reverted in https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/pull/86506 which I
assume was accidental.

Ghosts have an innate ability to become incorporeal, which allows them
to phase through walls and stuff. Using this will immediately make them
drop any non-ghost limb/organ (not implants cause I thought it would be
funny). This ability is not available if they have holy water in their
system, and like revenants they also can't walk over blessed tiles with
it. They are also invisible to cameras while using this (not the obscura
though).

Sprites taken from observers directly, if anyone wants to make custom
sprites for them feel free. If anyone wants to make this obtainable
somehow in-game as well I wouldn't be opposed, halloween is just where I
thought it would fit most.

This also adds a lot of fixes that I encountered trying to add this,
from systems that have been neglected throughout the years.

https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/e368d710-80a0-4c63-b271-1abe3dd41a5e

We haven't gotten a new halloween species in a long time and thought it
would be fun if you can play as an actual ghost, the soul that remains

096c032402 Adds a new halloween species: Spirits (#90711)
## About The Pull Request

Adds 2 new species: Spirits and Ghosts

Spirits are available roundstart during Halloween, Wabbajack and
Xenobio's black slime extract
Ghosts are available through Magic mirrors

They fly around, and don't have legs and instead float around. They also
can't get legs implanted onto themselves.

They also do have organs, so they are affected by flashbangs, they do
get hungry, they do need oxygen to survive (they don't take damage in
space but they do suffocate & get slowdown), and can process chems.
Gibbing a ghost gives ectoplasm, an ingredient for ghost burgers.

Chaplains also got a buff here, null rod-type weapons' bane is now
against Spirit mobs, rather than hardcoded revenants. This means it now
includes Spirits/Ghosts, but also Soulscythes & Cult shades.

Also re-adds https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/pull/81630 which was
reverted in https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/pull/86506 which I
assume was accidental.

### The difference between Spirits and Ghosts

Ghosts have an innate ability to become incorporeal, which allows them
to phase through walls and stuff. Using this will immediately make them
drop any non-ghost limb/organ (not implants cause I thought it would be
funny). This ability is not available if they have holy water in their
system, and like revenants they also can't walk over blessed tiles with
it. They are also invisible to cameras while using this (not the obscura
though).

Sprites taken from observers directly, if anyone wants to make custom
sprites for them feel free. If anyone wants to make this obtainable
somehow in-game as well I wouldn't be opposed, halloween is just where I
thought it would fit most.

This also adds a lot of fixes that I encountered trying to add this,
from systems that have been neglected throughout the years.

## Why It's Good For The Game

We haven't gotten a new halloween species in a long time and thought it
would be fun if you can play as an actual ghost, the soul that remains
after a person passes, so Halloween feels more haunted. It's overall
made in just good fun, with a bonus that Ghosts are a cool species to
play with as well for Wizards & maybe Chaplains in the future (Dead sect
when?)

690bfc04b4 Rebalances wound determination values, wounding escalation and wound armor to hopefully be less explosive (#91099)
This is a big one so please bear with me, wounds are complicated

We've decreased the max contributed damage to wound rolls from 35 to 25.
This results, after the exponent, a max possible wound roll of 1 to 91
before any modifiers (assuming the attack, after armor, is 25 or above).

The minimum value to wound is still 5.

Most wounds were contributing significant numbers per wound type to the
potential for a new wound to occur. Getting wounded once meant you were
getting wound a lot, but actually getting past that first wounding may
be the tricky part.

We have significantly reigned in the wound penalty that having a wound
contributes, and instead utilize the series wound penalty to allow same
type wounds to escalate themselves faster as a priority. Having wounds
still makes you more wound vulnerable, just not to such an extreme
degree.

The priority here for what wounds matter most for contributing to
overall wounding vulnerability is ``Infected BURNS > BURNS >
SLASH|PIERCE > BLUNT.``

Wound armor, unlike all other kinds of armor, was used as a additive
value to the wound roll modifiers rather than a multiplicative value.

We have reworked how wound armor is determined by changing how wound
modifiers are calculated.

Firstly, we're passing our entire injury roll into the
``check_woundings_mod()`` proc, as we're not treating this as a proc
that just adds values anymore.

Secondly, bare wound bonus only applies if there is no potential wound
protection from any source, as expected. But it comes last in the
calculations.

Thirdly, wound protection is applied to the injury roll last, after
wound bonuses from the attack, wound bonuses from other wounds and wound
bonuses from a disabled limb are applied. This does not include serial
wound bonuses, which are determined outside of this proc.

Wound protection comes from two sources. Clothing and limb wound
resistance. Your chest and head have an amount of wound resistance so
long as they are not mangled in any fashion. Being mangled means having
either a hairline fracture or a weeping avulsion wound.

Wound protection reduces the final injury roll by a percentage. Say our
roll is 50, and we have effectively 50% wound protection. The final roll
would be 25.

~~Most clothing have had their wound armor values changed. As a loose
rule, I used the highest of melee or bomb armor, except where that value
was 100, in which case I used the lowest instead. I'm basing this
decision on how embeds are calculated, which is attack type agnostic.~~

~~Some armor have inconsistent values because they are alternative
armors to an existing armor type or are hyperspecialized armor.
Ablative, bulletproof and security vests all share a value of 35,
despite the former two not having decent melee or bomb armor.~~

~~Some clothing missing wound armor that should have had them now have
wound armor.~~

~~This may need a bit of scrutiny in case one or two seem weirdly high.
Some have maybe become too low. Its a bit hard to say.~~

I changed it to ``exposed_wound_bonus`` to better represent when it
applies. You can be naked and still not be affected by this bonus if the
limb has wound resistance.

I'm not promising anything with this PR, but this is an attempt to
sanity check the values on wounds so that we're not seeing what the data
that determined the removal of beheading presented. An extreme
over-representation of tier 3 wounds. ~~And, from that, maybe I can
argue for beheadings coming back. That's my goal. I think beheadings
happened so much because the numbers were in need of work.~~ Well okay I
just wanna make wounds a bit more workable actually more than I want
beheadings.

Why is it that tier 3 wounds were so over-represented? Because wounds
will often force more severe wounds of other types by merit of any
wounds existing at all on a limb. Having **_a_** wound makes you more
wound prone for any kind of wound, and not just making you more likely
to suffer a more severe type of the same wound.

The threshold mechanic was intended to simulate making a wound worse,
but oddly just made a limb broadly more prone to getting worse from any
kind of attack to such a degree that future wound rolls of different
types were often going to start at the threshold necessary to be a tier
3 wound.

Dismemberment, mind you, requires you to suffer a flesh wound while you
have a bone wound of tier 2 or higher (with tier 3 giving a bonus to
this). You can do this readily via just a sharp weapon, because having a
mangled limb causes the wound to turn into a bone wound. Technically,
this is meant to be less likely as the effective damage for this wound
is halved. But the wound bonus from having a flesh wound was almost
always significant enough to kick your new bone wound up to a tier 3.

In other words; its not surprising that you saw so many beheadings,
because the system wanted to behead you as fast as it possibly can
thanks to all these escalating values.

Wound armor was only applied as a flat reduction on the roll. The
average for wound armor was 10. After receiving a single wound, you can
expect wound rolls to reach upwards of 100, even if the actual damage
roll was not particularly high, due to wound stacking bonuses form being
wounded.

This meant that wounds, if they happened, came thick and fast after the
first, regardless of what your protection might be to wounds. It was
just a matter of getting past the initial bump.

This is why effects that forced wounds were so powerful. They basically
made a given limb more prone to taking a wound without having to deal
with the protection problem first.

Finally, this is just a broad flaw with the system that is not its
fault. It is actually a problem that isn't a problem. Most people in the
game are not wearing helmets that protect their head. So most people are
going to suffer from a higher proclivity of being wounded if people are
aiming for the head. There is this...kind of cargo cult belief that
aiming for the head means you do more damage, or can stun someone if
you're lucky or what have you. It's entirely nonsense, but it has a
grain of truth in that people rarely wear, or even have access too,
headwear that provides wound protection or any protection at all. People
have jumpsuits, which are universally wound protected, but that isn't
true of the head. Look, the point is, they're not aiming at the head
because it is usually less armored, its for other reasons but it just so
happens to become true due to wounds and how wounds roll their type.

To soften this issue, I've decided to treat wound resistance as armor
until the limb suffers a tier 3 wound. This way, hits to the head MAY
not necessarily escalate to tier 3 instantly as they would on live even
from relatively low power weapons. Some weapons have very low force, but
have extreme bare wound bonuses. This should be less likely after this
change. I doubt this will necessarily make high damage high wound
weapons like energy swords any less prone to cutting you clean open, but
it might thanks to the reduction to contributed damage to the injury
roll. The system is now _a bit more random_.

🆑
balance: Wounds do not make you as vulnerable to suffering wounds of all
types as before. Instead, wounds make you more vulnerable to suffering
worse versions of themselves as a priority.
balance: Wound armor is now more impactful when protecting you from
wounds when you have already been wounded.
balance: Your head and chest are more difficult to wound until they have
been mangled; either from suffering from a weeping avulsion or a
hairline fracture.

BloopandRoxy c906b85d30 Audits wash/cleaning signals + refactors wash() to ensure no needless mob updates occur (#91259)
## About The Pull Request

This has the potential to create a lot of needless mob updates which is
not great. Now should only update a mob's clothing if it was actually
washed.

This PR

1) ensures that all wash() procs return a bitflag.
2) ensures that `wash()` proccalls which result in expensive operations
like icon updates only do so when it is necessary

## Why It's Good For The Game

Updating mob sprites is expensive, and doing it when nothing has been
changed is bad.

3c1505ac06 Cyborgs now use storage datum (#90927)
This moves Cyborgs onto using storage datums, removing the remenants of
the shitcode that was Cyborg inventory. It's now done mostly by
equipping/unequipping/storage items, much like how other mobs do.
This allows borgs to take advantage of more hand support stuff and
things like ``dropped()``, so borgs no longer have to copy paste drop
code to ``cyborg_unequip``

It also:
- Removes ``CYBORG_ITEM_TRAIT``
- Removes all borg items being ``NODROP``

https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/11442a10-3443-41f2-8c72-b38fb0126cdb

Currently borgs are able to have their entire inventory open and a bag
below it, which I thought was a little weird. I always assumed they WERE
storage items, so I guess I'm doing it myself.
Cyborgs using storage code makes it easier for contributors to actually
do stuff with, without risking breaking everything. It also hopefully
will make borg items more resilient against breaking in the future, now
that we're not relying on nodrop.
Also just brings them more in line with other mobs, all of which make
use of storages.

modules instead of overlap one over the other).

fb69fbb8a2 Refactor: Moves throwing and giving items from /mob/living/carbon to /mob/living (#91049)
Given the existence of basic mobs with hand slots, it feels like
throwing and giving items shouldn't be something exclusive to carbon
mobs, so I've pulled things around to make this happen. The only basic
mobs with hands at time of writing are gorillas and dextrous
holoparasites, but the inability to throw things when you're a gorilla
just doesn't seem right to me.

Some more details about what I've done here:

- Made the dextrous component optionally enable throwing for the mob
it's added to.
- Moved offer/give item functionality to /mob/living (I can't see any
reason why only carbon mobs should have this option)
- Moved throwing and give item hotkeys from carbon to "human" (where all
the other /mob/living hotkeys go) and, as a result, removed carbon
hotkeys (nothing is left in them).
- Moved throwing code and item offering code to its own file because
living.dm is 3000+ lines long and should probably be broken up some day
(I'm not brave enough for that)
- Cleaned up an unused global signal that hasn't been used since dogs
got moved to basic mobs.
- Other miscellaneous cleanup where I noticed it.
- In terms of testing: Tested using gorillas (only checked the dextrous
holoparasite to confirm the button and hotkeys worked). Things that were
working:
  - Can throw items if the mob is set up to allow it.
- Can give items as a gorilla to a human, as a human to a gorilla, and
as a human to a human.
- Can give a high five to a gorilla (and the gorilla can receive it).
Gorillas can't give a high five back, though (they don't have the
emote), this already ballooned in scope, someone else can make that
happen.
- There are an alarmingly high amount of niche
emote-into-item-into-giving behaviours I suspect half the playerbase or
more aren't even aware of (does anyone offer their hand to someone to
get them up off of the ground?) and I don't know if I broke any of them
with this, but the fact high fives work gives me some hope they're
probably still fine.

Lets gorillas and dextrous holoparasites throw things and give things,
but most importantly sets up more framework for any future dextrous
basic mobs to also be able to do this. There's no real reason to keep
this functionality confined to carbon mobs when dextrous basic mobs are
a thing.

SmArtKarandRoxy 0f01987115 Refactors ITEM_SLOT_BACKPACK and ITEM_SLOT_BELTPACK out of inventory code (#90869)
<!-- Write **BELOW** The Headers and **ABOVE** The comments else it may
not be viewable. -->
<!-- You can view Contributing.MD for a detailed description of the pull
request process. -->

## About The Pull Request

So yesterday I've spotted that we had wrong SLOTS_AMT value set, and
went a bit down a rabbit hole and found how abhorrent our
ITEM_SLOT_BACKPACK and ITEM_SLOT_BELTPACK usage is. They're not real
inventory slots, but just "hints" at items being located in backpacks or
belts, or instructions to put an item into a belt/backpack. This PR
rewrites all usages of them as "hints", and adds an equip_to_storage
proc used to equip an item into a storage positioned in a certain slot,
so ``equip_to_slot_if_possible(item, ITEM_SLOT_BACKPACK)`` is now
``equip_to_storage(item, ITEM_SLOT_BACK)``

## Why It's Good For The Game

Its really stupid and we shouldn't have those as slot flags,
ITEM_SLOT_HANDS at least makes sense but those two are just absurd.
Should make equipping things into non-backpack storage a bit easier too,
in case we end up going through with the idea of suit/uniform pockets
being a major part of player inventory.

## Changelog

SmArtKarandRoxy 77bbcfd764 Merges crusher retool kits into one, datumizes crusher skins, gives dagger and blaster unique animations (#90742)
## About The Pull Request

Merges sword, harpoon, glaive and dagger crusher retools into a single
item which allows you to pick the skin you want upon being applied to a
crusher by converting crusher skins into datums.
I've also improved sprites for all skins and redid the retool kit
itself, as well as gave dagger and blaster unique animations - you swing
with a dagger for normal attacks, stab to rupture the mark, and firing a
shot point-blank does a stabbing animation with the blaster.

https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/2d243daf-f1d8-48bf-a661-8a9ac990837c

(Apologies for lack of robust gameplay, I was trying to show the
animations, not kill the goliath)

The harpoon crusher skin now does stabbing animation instead of slashing
one, and I've also fixed animations playing incorrectly when attacking
large mobs/objects

## Why It's Good For The Game

Having multiple items for reskinning crushers feels clunky, and unique
animations are just something that makes sense. Having a swinging
animation for both dagger and blaster looked odd, as you'd probably only
swing one of them at the opponent, so I decided to spice them up.

## Changelog
🆑
add: Dagger-blaster and harpoon crusher skins have received unique
attack animations.
add: Four base crusher retool kits have been merged into one item.
image: Resprited crusher skins and the crusher retool kit
fix: Fixed attack animations being offset when attacking large objects
or mobs.

John WillardandRoxy 6e17e9b62b Removes 'thrownby' var on items (#90877)
## About The Pull Request

Fully removes thrownby as a var on items, and is now instead handled by
throwingdatums' ``get_thrower()`` proc

Also replaces the early return for throwing things at yourself (it now
only prevents the call for check_block and therefore hit reaction
stuff), since the only way to throw things at yourself is with
boomerangs, which currently only works because it doesn't pass you as
the thrower for boomerang's return

Speaking of, boomerangs now see the thrower as thrower on returns

Before (Boomerangs don't pass you as the thrower, so it shows you as
being hit by nothing):

![image](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/44c17c02-5618-44c6-b821-2089752946c8)

After (Boomerangs pass you and you can affect yourself, so it sees you
hitting yourself & it still batons you):

![image](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/dafe6212-cf58-4a9d-aae1-3ef97faa5dbd)

This is gonna be used for
https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/pull/90689 as well.

## Why It's Good For The Game

Better logging for boomeranged items, removes a deprecated var and
better consistency for thrown items leaving better readability.

it as them hitting themselves (rather than being hit by the air).

075d966320 Added additional layers to hairstyles (#90275)
## About The Pull Request

Added two new "layers" to hairstyles. The first draws on the normal hair
layer but resists being affected by hair masks unless a piece of
clothing really insists that it must mask it. The second draws on top of
the headwear layer and will ignore all hair masking, but will disappear
entirely if a piece of clothing covers the part of the head that
hairpiece originates from.

Each of these "Layers" (called "hair appendages" in the code) is
associated with a part of the head that it comes off of (left side,
rear, right side, etc.), which pieces of clothing can cover to prevent
those parts from being shown. For example, a Beret will allow a ponytail
to sprout off the back of a person's head and ignore the normal hair
mask, but a winter coat hood covers every part of the head except the
front, so it will hide the ponytail completely.

## Costs

Hairstyles that use this system require some extra icon blending, but
each hairstyle will cache the result of each blend whenever a new hair
mask is applied, so the extra cost only happens once. The cache will
also be used on hairstyles that don't utilize the additional layers, so
we should end up with less total icon blending over the course of a
round than we currently have.

Adds a new sprite layer, OUTER_HAIR_LAYER, to humans.

Changes hair masks from strings specifying an icon state to datums with
an icon state and a bitfield storing which parts of the head the
headware that uses them cover. The singletons for these datums are
stored in the SSaccessories subsystem.

Any hairstyle that uses this system will need 1-2 more icon states in
the human_face.dmi file. I currently have 32 hairstyles marked that
could reasonably use this system, about half of which use both
additional icon states.

## Images

Old system:

![before1](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/c8e5827b-751f-4809-b7a4-d30a3b2aaa70)

New system:

![after1](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/b25ca6e3-f5cd-4385-822e-29604a7d39ba)

![after2](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/0b0c8007-42d5-42bd-a9b4-6bf7a7e1264e)

The new system is currently only implemented on the "Ponytail (High)"
hairstyle for demonstration and testing. I have a branch with the same
update for most similar hairstyles I can push if this is merged.

## Why It's Good For The Game

Hair masks are okay but they look really bad with some hairstyles. This
allows people who really care about their character's look to make their
hairstyles work with their favorite hats.

Potential for fixing #88886

## Changelog

🆑
add: Added a system to create hairstyles with multiple layers to allow
better interaction with hats and helmets

## About The Pull Request
adds the Cain & Abel to the lootpool of the colossus!

![daggerpic](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/d0e0c5f9-bace-4010-854a-3ea65e764499)

these are a set of angelic twinblades bound together by some chains. The
long chains allow u to attack mobs from a distance (2 tiles max) and at
very FAST speed, and come with a few new mechanics:

-Attacking a mob with the cain and abel grants you a special whisp that
follows your character. these whisps empower ur next melee attacks u can
collect a maximum of up to 6 whisps, (their bonuses stack), after which
they reset. If u get hit by a mob once, you'll lose ur whisps (and ur
melee bonus), so ull have to regain them by rebuilding up ur combo. u
can also choose to sacrifice ur whisps by firing them at mobs (by right
clicking them) for some hefty damage (this again means u'll lose them)

https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/0a1738db-9fa4-4226-ac80-334f5e97cfa5

-u can also choose to hurl one of ur daggers at enemies, there's 2 throw
modes u can toggle between by pressing Z while holding ur weapon.
1- On launch mode, u can throw one of ur daggers at a tile, afterwhich
the chains will rapidly pull u towards it, making for some cool getaways
in tense situations. this puts throw mode on a 7 second cooldown
2- On crystal mode, u can hurl a dagger at an enemy or at a tile. Spiked
crystals will errupt on nearby floors, dealing some damage to nearby
mobs and stunning them for 2 seconds (bosses dont get stunned tho). puts
throw mode on a 15 second cooldown

https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/665b9cf4-c5a1-4263-a36b-86e3f35d0ae5

-Lastly is the swing ability. This will swing ur daggers around u,
dealing AOE damage to nearby mobs, and makes u block all melee attacks,
tentacle attacks, and deflect incoming projectile attacks (could for
example be used to deflect the colossus' shotgun blast back to it). ull
only block attacks while the animation is active, which lasts a good
1.75 seconds, and is at a 20 second cooldown.

SmArtKarandGitHub eb2796831b [MDB Ignore] Refactors pills, patches, and generalizes stomach contents, nothing to see here. (#89549)
## About The Pull Request

Currently patches are a subtype of pills, and while they have the
``dissolveable`` var set to FALSE, barely anything checks it (because
people don't expect patches to be pills in disguise) so we end up
patches being dissolveable and implantable, which is far from ideal.
Both have been moved into an ``/obj/item/reagent_containers/applicator``
class, which handles their common logic and helps handling cases where
either one fits. As for gameplay changes:
* Pills no longer dissolve instantly, instead adding their contents to
your stomach after 3 seconds (by default). You can increase the timer by
dropping sugar onto them to thicken their coating, 1s per 1u applied, up
to a full minute. Coating can also be dissolved with water, similarly
-1s per 1u applied. Pills with no coating will work like before.
* Patches now only take half as long to apply (1.5s), but also slowly
trickle in their reagents instead of instantly applying all of them.
This is done via embedding so you could theoretically (if you get lucky)
stick a ranged patch at someone, although they are rather quick to rip
off. The implementation and idea itself are separate, but the idea for
having a visual display has been taken from
https://github.com/Monkestation/Monkestation2.0/pull/2558.

* In order to support the new pill mechanics, stomachs have received
contents. Pills and items that you accidentally swallow now go into your
stomach instead of your chest cavity, and may damage it if they're
sharp, requiring having them surgically cut out (cut the stomach open
with a scalpel, then cauterize it to mend the incision). Or maybe you
can get a bacchus's blessing, or a geneticist hulk to gut punch you,
that may also work. Alien devour ability also uses this system now. If
you get a critical slashing wound on your chest contents of your cut
apart stomach (if a surgeon forgot to mend it, or if you ate too much
glass shard for breakfast) may fall out. However, spacemen with the
strong stomach trait can eat as much glass cereal as they want.

Pill duration can also be chosen in ChemMaster when you have a pill
selected, 0 to 30 seconds.

## Why It's Good For The Game

Patches and pills are extremely similar in their implemenation, former
being a worse version of sprays and pills, with only change being that
pills cannot be applied through helmets while patches and sprays ignore
both. This change makes them useful for separate cases, and allows
reenactment of some classic... movie, scenes, with the pill change. As
for stomach contents, this was probably the sanest way of implementing
pill handling, and everything else (item swallowing and cutting stomachs
open to remove a cyanide pill someone ate before it dissolves) kind of
snowballed from there. I pray to whatever gods that are out there that
this won't have some extremely absurd and cursed interactions (it
probably will).

## Changelog
🆑
add: Instead of dissolving instantly, pills now activate after 4
seconds. This timer can be increased by using a dropper filled with
sugar on them, 1s added per 1u dropped.
add: Patches now stick to you and slowly bleed their reagents, instead
of being strictly inferior to both pills and sprays.
add: Items that you accidentally swallow now go into your stomach
contents.
refactor: Patches are no longer considered pills by the game
refactor: All stomachs now have contents, instead of it being exclusive
to aliens. You can cut open a stomach to empty it with a scalpel, and
mend an existing incision with a cautery.

d72d51f0d5 Make too low vols and no soundin scream for playsound instead of failing silently (#89746)
…ing silently
## About The Pull Request
While reviewing the recent sound optimization PR I noticed that a bunch
of checks here really make no sense to just fail silently when nobody
should be doing this in the first place

Immediately started screaming on run so thats a good sign

## Changelog
🆑
code: previously silent failures due to empty sounds or too low volumes
will now create a runtime in the runtime log
fix: some footstep sounds like robotic or slimes are no longer silent
