## About The Pull Request
Refactors `/datum/component/holderloving` as a whole. It was registering
a lot of unnecessary signals and was doing too much in general(vars like
`can_transfer` simply isn't required)
Fixes
https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/pull/87131#issuecomment-2403284265
properly by adding an extra `newloc` argument to
`temporarilyRemoveItemFromInventory()` which simply hints where we want
to move the object without actually removing it from the player.
Using this argument we can fix camera assembly construction code because
we now hint we want to move the gas analyzer into the camera and the
signal handler code for drones can correctly check for locs

## About The Pull Request
Fixes#87129
[This
change](https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/pull/87073/files#diff-c8ab5fbc20de60e202b839834b039649cbb69a1c4b99b27a5e467f3889442ccd)
added in #87073, passing `invdrop = FALSE` to `doUnEquip`, breaks the
behavior of unequipping dropping your items. Because that's what
`invdrop` does. If you pass it as `FALSE` it prevents other items from
dropping off the mob, intended for like, outfit use / "quick swapping"
an item out
So I reverted it. Drone tools still seem to work I guess. @SyncIt21

Converts maintenance drones to use the basic mob framework. As drones
don't use AI, this was mostly a perfunctory conversion, but I took the
opportunity to clean up drone code a bit and fixed a few bugs.
Noteworthy changes:
- Drones now have a `can_unhack` field. This is set to FALSE on
syndrones, because unhacking them doesn't make them stop being evil but
does cause some weirdness. Syndrones are unused right now, but you never
know.
- Drones use the Dextrous component for hand-having.
- Drones no longer have an internal ID card, instead being given
all-access with the `simple_access` component.
- Picking up drones now works the same as for other mobs, instead of
pointlessly copying the code into `attack_hand`. As a consequence, it is
now possible to punch drones if you want to for some reason.
- Drones can now reboot/cannibalize dead drones without being in combat
mode.
- Cannibalizing a drone that contains a client no longer runtimes - the
client is ghosted ahead of time.
- Drones now have TRAIT_ADVANCEDTOOLUSER, allowing them to properly
interact with machines.
- Trying to screwdriver a dead drone now gives a balloon alert about why
you can't do that.
In addition to these changes, I cleaned up the code quite a bit,
organizing things better and placing more useful comments throughout.
And removing a hell of a lot of single-letter variable names.
I will note that this PR does _not_ address #72129. The issue there is
that sprites for drones-as-hats are entirely nonexistent, and I'm not a
spriter. It shouldn't be too hard to fix if someone makes dronehat
sprites, though!
## Why It's Good For The Game
Kills 8 more simple animals.
In addition to that, drones were clearly a bit neglected, so this fixes
them up a bit and makes the code a little bit clearer. Maybe not that
much clearer, but it's something. It certainly leaves them in a better
place for further work if anyone wants to do that. Plus, a bunch of bugs
and other jankiness are fixed now, which is nice.
## Changelog
🆑
refactor: Maintenance Drones now use the basic mob framework. This
shouldn't come with any noticeable gameplay changes, but please report
any bugs.
fix: Drones can now interact normally with electrified doors.
fix: Drones' built-in tools can no longer be placed in storage objects
and/or thrown on the floor.
fix: Drones can now perform right-click interactions correctly, such as
deconstructing reinforced windows.
fix: Drones can now reboot or cannibalize other drones without being in
combat mode.

- Makes QDELETED use isnull(x) instead of !x, giving about 0.2 to 0.25s
of speed.
- Make disposal constructs only update icon state rather than go through
expensive overlay code. Unfortunately did not have much effect, but is
something they should've been doing nonetheless.
- Makes RegisterSignal only take signals directly as opposed to
allocating a fresh list of signals. Very few consumers actually used
this and it costs about 0.4s. Also I think this is just a bad API anyway
and that separate procs are important
`\bRegisterSignal\((.*)list\(` replaced with `RegisterSignals($1list(`
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.

Currently, storage works as a subtype of /datum/component, utilizing GetComponent() and signals to operate. While this is a pretty good idea in theory, the execution was pretty trash, and we end up with alot of GetComponent() snowflake code (something that shouldn't even need to be used frankly), and a heaping load of scattered procs that lead into one another, and procs that don't get utilized properly.
Instead, this PR adds atom_storage and proc/create_storage(. . .) to every atom, allowing for the possibility of storage on quite frankly anything. Not only does this entirely remove the need for signals, but it heavily squashes down the number of needed procs in total (removing snowflake signal procs that just lead to one another), reducing overall proc overhead and improving performance.
It's the second try! (First: #48456)
Drones are little robots inspired by Keepers from the Mass Effect games. With laws to maintain both the station, and their distance from the matters of others, they were a great ghost role that let you fix up the station when you were otherwise out of the round. They were in the game for quite a while, but were abused. The abusive players completely ignored the laws and did whatever they wanted. Being tiny ventcrawlers, this became a huge issue for admins.
I attempted to bring them back, this time with some gameplay restrictions to enforce their laws a bit better. It seemed to go well, but I required headmin approval, and this all happened near a headmin election, so the project died.
Recently, some people have wanted to bring drones back. So, they gave me a ring, and I started a discussion with the admin team to see what other changes they would want in addition to the previous ones.
Here are those changes:
They can't interact at all when close to another being, living or dead
Their binary chat has been removed to separate them from AI and borgs
They can only hold a whitelist of items necessary to do their job
They can only interact with machines necessary to do their job
The drone satchel is gone, and drones now have built in basic tools
They also can't interact in some blacklisted high risk areas
Finally, you must play 40 hours total as a Silicon role in order to play as a drone
Additionally, the drone dispenser is not mapped, and the drones must be researched to be constructed.
Why It's Good For The Game
Drones are a fun way to pass the time, and this time they have a lot less freedom. You can still perform the basic function of maintaining the station, but not without difficulty and tedium. This will allow other station roles to perform much better than the drones, while still letting them chug along at their slower pace.
