SmArtKar 940d91bb62 [MDB IGNORE] Adds new features and tiles for lavaland biomes (#95955)
## About The Pull Request

Adds new floor types and natural decor to both Siderite and Shale
biomes, as well as makes flora and fauna spawns differ between said
biomes.

Basalt biome now spawns more legions and goliaths, but less watchers and
no brimdemons. You can rarely find new volcanic pore rocks which will
spew out lava when destroyed.

Siderite biome has a lot of rock formations and may sometimes spawn new
stalagmites. You can expect to see a ton of bileworms, raptors and
watchers there.

Shale is full of lobstrocities, goldgrubs and brimdemons, and home to a
new glowgrowth "plant" - colony of bioluminescent fungi growing on
natural air vents.

While it cannot be planted by itself, it contains luminescent fluid
inside which will grant whoever eats it minor night vision as long as it
is inside their bloodstream (as well as cyan-glowing eyes)

---

Ruins now properly respect their biome's rock (and now floor as well)
type, since it was broken for some of them previously.

SentryPrimis on the /tg/station discord

## Why It's Good For The Game

Makes biomes more distinct and interesting, as well as gives them unique
atmosphere, since right now they only differ in rock type and mineral
distribution.

## Changelog
🆑 SmArtKar, SentryPrimis
add: Siderite and Shale lavaland biomes now have unique floors, as well
as flora, features and fauna!
fix: Fixed some ruins generating with default basalt walls instead of
their biome's walls

Bloop 183c5af2e4 Adds flag for virtual areas, fixes being able to send funds from virtualspace to real accounts (#94071)
## About The Pull Request

Fixes https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/issues/90641
Fixes https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/issues/88366

Eliminates worries over virtualspace currency being sent to real
accounts.

When I was looking into why there were no flags for bitrunning areas.
Then I saw this mess:

<img width="929" height="889" alt="Code_2we2QjDyFp"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/8a807bfe-b566-4057-a8ea-2b306325687d"
/>

Not having enough space / being too lazy to refactor this is a silly
reason to not include flags for something like these virtual areas where
it can be quite helpful. Fortunately I am not too lazy ~~in this
moment~~ so here we go:

It was fairly logical to move over some of these to a separate flag,
which I've called `area_flags_mapping` since they pertain to maploading
things and terrain generation mostly. `area_flags` stays reserved for
general properties and now has more room than it did before for you
people to fill it with.

In doing this it's also neatened up the code quit a bit, as UNIQUE_AREA
was kind of everywhere and now that it's implied by default less areas
need to have it defined (or explicitly un-defined).

<details> <summary> Working as intended </summary>

SkyratBot 23095a406a [MIRROR] Adds Biomes to the Cave Generator, for all of your procedurally-placed cave biome needs! (#27996)
* Adds Biomes to the Cave Generator, for all of your procedurally-placed cave biome needs! (#83138)

## About The Pull Request
Implements biomes into the Cave Generator, using some adapted code from
the biomes feature of the Jungle Generator. It's there as a tool for
whomever would want to implement it on /tg/, I simply don't have the
sprites, mobs and motivation to add biomes to anything at this current
point in time, even though I'm fully open to helping anyone that would
be interested in doing so.

Here's how it works:
You supply a 2D list of biomes based on the two arbitrary criteria
'heat' and 'humidity', you can treat these as simply two independent
variables that would affect your biome distribution. There's three
levels of each, `LOW`, `MEDIUM` and `HIGH`, take a look at
`possible_biomes` for a good example of it. Here's what it looks like by
default (yes, that's the default on the jungle generator as well, except
here we use 3x3 instead of 4x4):

![image](https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/assets/58045821/2c53b46b-f4f9-497f-9647-efc2cc118805)

On the `/datum/biome`, you have three important stats, split into two
each: flora, features and fauna. They are evaluated in this order, so if
a flora spawns, no feature nor fauna will spawn. If a feature spawns, no
fauna will spawn, and if fauna spawns, then that's cool. Each of these
stats have a corresponding `density` (i.e. `flora_density`), which is
simply the probability for that thing to be spawned if it's eligible,
and a `types` list (i.e. `flora_types`), which is a weighted list that
then gets expanded at runtime in order to make the `pick()` operation
faster.

The areas you want to have the biomes in also need to have their
`area_flags` set up to include `FLORA_ALLOWED` for both flora and
features, and `MOB_SPAWN_ALLOWED` for fauna to spawn.

The fauna currently does just about every check that is done in
`cave_generator`'s `populate_terrain()`, except for handling megafauna
differently, or taking megafauna into account. If that's desired, it can
be added easily, I simply chose not to add it because it felt like
wasted processor time over something that would probably not be
pertinent in the majority of cases.

I've run a few tests, and keeping in mind that I've got a high-specs
computer, generating the caves with biomes takes about 1 second for an
entire z-level covered in biomes. For comparison, I compile the repo in
about 36 seconds. ~~It may increase the amount of time spent
initializing the atoms subsystem, however, I'll need to compare that,
I'd really appreciate some help optimizing that if anyone knows how
to.~~ It didn't seem to have an effect, I just had seen things a bit
weird. I optimized things by moving rust-g calls outside of the for
loop, and we gained about 0.3-0.4 seconds, which is pretty nice.

## Why It's Good For The Game
Biomes are cool, and since we use mainly cave generators for z-level
generation, I decided to add biomes to that, so that the biome code
added by floyd lives on.

Here's an example of ice box with jungle caves, just as a proof of
concept, to prove that it works:

![image](https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/assets/58045821/33b348db-513b-4a2e-b11f-907e80b65177)

SkyratBot 602ac52e9d [MIRROR] Fixes ore vents spawning without ores on icebox, sets up map specific ore configurations (#26375)
* Fixes ore vents spawning without ores on icebox, sets up map specific ore configurations (#81103)

## About The Pull Request

In short, we used a static list previously within the ore_generation
subsystem that held the amount of each ore that we expected a single map
to uniformly need. We held this number constant, since we were spawning
15 vents per map.

**Pros:** This worked flawlessly for Lavaland since 15 vents on a single
Z level makes it pretty densely packed map with a good amount of
map-based ore spawns, and it worked consistently.

**Cons:** 15 vents did not work well on Icebox however, even when split
so that the majority of the ores were spawning on the lower levels,
players did not feel like icebox spawned nearly enough ores and reported
the map spawning empty.

**Result:** As a result, we adjusted the ratio, so that we spawned
vastly more ores on the lower levels, now up to 4 vents on the upper
level, and 21 vents on the lower level. However, as we were still using
the ore distribution list based on lavaland, icebox vents were quickly
running out of ores to distribute between them, resulting in empty vents
-> which produced empty boulders -> which not only don't really let you
process them properly, but also just result in a metric ton of runtimes.

Icebox now has it's own list of ore distributions. These distributions
are now moved to a set of global lists as opposed to being saved on the
subsystem as a static list, which will make going and setting up new ore
distribution lists very very easy. Additionally, we've moved the setting
and getting of those ore_distributions over to the seedRuins proc, so
that we're actually setting the list of ores right before we actually
place them to make sure that the order that it's set is roughly as it's
needed, while still setting the list at the same time the
map-appropriate ruin placements are dropped in.

**Plus some misc cleanup fixes:**
`var/list/ore_vent_sizes` in SSore_generation wasn't being treated as a
similar budget list as `ore_vent_minerals`, since it `pick()`s off it's
own static size list. Which is honestly fine for this five seconds, I
can handle that later while we make sure the rest of the code code is
stable. In the meantime, I've just tweak it so that it's easy to see at
a glance how many of each random vent has spawned into the map.

Tweaked the description to not include anything about chemical
processing, as I'm planning on hitting on that in a part 2 PR that I'll
be picking back up after the freeze.

## Why It's Good For The Game

Cleans up the code a bit, but primarily fixes ores not spawning on
icebox as they should.
Should fix #81058.
Improves description to not mention mechanics that aren't in game.
Also, cleans up a piece of code that currently isn't serving much of a
purpose.

SkyratBot 5543a44882 [MIRROR] ArcMining Pr Beta: Version 1.2 (#26205)
ArcMining Pr Beta: Version 1.2 (#78524)

This one's not like the last one, so much so that I'm not even going to
outsource the PR description to a robot this time!
Basically, **You should read the PR body before assuming that everything
is the same as last time. It's not.**

Click the link below to see a video summary of the main features of this
pull request.
https://youtu.be/Aho2omR0mjY?feature=shared

This pull request serves as a large rework of minerals produced by
mining, and by extension mining itself. I'll try and list each change
and it's associated nuance here.

The biggest addition to the game with ArcMining is **Ore Vents**. Ore
vents spawn as a ruin on the map, placing a randomized ore vent onto map
generation. Ore vents spawn in 3 different sizes, **Small, Medium, and
Large**. These vents will pick from a pool of materials they can
generate, and will hang out across the map. A player can use a mining
scanner to discover an ore vent, granting a small quantity of **mining
points** to begin with. Once scanned, ore vents will show what minerals
that ore vent will generate after they're fully tapped.

Scanning the vent again will trigger the extraction process. A small
drone will fly down, called the NODE drone, and buckle onto the vent.
Your job during wave defense is to protect the drone and to defeat waves
of randomly spawning mobs (dependent on if you're on lavaland or on
icebox). The quantity, duration, and time between waves is scaled to the
size of the vent you're protecting. Starting by scanning and protecting
lower tier vents earlier in the shift is a safer bet than doing a large
vent in the first few minutes. The drone has 500 health, and can take a
good few hits, but leaving it alone will cause it to meet an unfortunate
end quite quickly.

Cooperation can be your best asset, as mining with allies can greatly
help with wave defense, and mineral points are granted to anyone who
helps with defending the ore vent equally (So 500 * size tier,
regardless of how much help you receive). Once complete, the ore vent
will have a mining machine constructed on top of it, and will start to
dredge up **Boulders** from the earth automatically. More on boulders
later.

Ore vents can be located based on your mining scanner, and will provide
an appropriate audio cue based on if the ore vent has been discovered or
not, and once processed will no longer alert you to it's presence.

**Each station comes with a free vent that produces exclusively iron and
glass, free of charge.** This is to help with shifts where the station
may not have shaft miners to produce minerals, and to provide the
station with a baseline amount of minerals where none may exist
otherwise.

Mineral generation has been completely reworked. Previously, Mineral
Generation had a flat 13% spawn rate in-game. Once minerals spawned,
they would also have a chance to propagate their minerals to nearby
tiles, resulting in a rather massive pool of minerals that could spawn
throughout lavaland on the whole.

This tweaks that, by making minerals in walls spawn based on their
proximity to ore vents on maps that use cave generation. Both the
probability, and quantity of ores spawning in walls is scaled based on
distance, with ore vents looking like large caches of ores found in
walls. This makes following ores found in walls and checking their
quantity of minerals spawned a good indicator of how close you are to a
nearby vent in-round.

This means you can collect some points form both discovering ore vents
first, as well as collecting their surrounding ores, turn those in for
mining points, and then trading them in for gear upgrades to more
effectively take on ore vents. As a result of tweaking the balance of
this, the total amount of ores spawned in walls overall has been
decreased. However, by making more of the process time based, we still
result in a mostly balanced finished product.

On station, there are now three new machines. These are the BRM, the
Refinery, and the Smelter.

- The BRM acts as a teleporter. Instead of needing to carry boulders
back to the station, you can activate the BRM, and it will automatically
pick boulders to teleport back to itself. You can use this to teleport
boulders dredged up from lavaland onto the station for processing. **The
BRM will only lock on to boulders that are resting on an ore vent.**
Moving boulders back by hand will mean you'll have to haul it back by
hand.
- The refinery processes the non-metallic materials out of boulders.
This process sends the materials straight to the ORM, and collects
mining points from the ores smelted in the machine. Swiping with an ID
card lets you withdraw those points for your own personal account, but
remember that these points are for your whole team to share from. The
**Mining points obtained from this process is only 75% of the amount an
equivalent amount of ores would provide.**
- The smelter works nearly identically, however the smelter produces
metallic materials out of boulders instead.
- Once a boulder has had all of it's materials extracted, it's broken
down and deleted from the line. Otherwise, the boulder is spat out for
the next machine to process it (either the refinery or smelter).
- Once there's no minerals left in a boulder of any type, the refinery
or smelter will break the boulder down.
- Boulders **do not stack onto tiles with each other**, so they'll block
each other when pulled or when moving on a conveyor belt.

Boulders can also be processed by hand. Using a mining tool on a boulder
with right click will allow you to break down a boulder into it's
composite ores, but limits you to a maximum of 10 ore per boulder, where
the full amount can be extracted using the proper processing machines.
Also, processing by hand does deal small amounts of stamina damage over
time, do breaking a full large boulder can be particularly taxing.

Additional Boulder Processing Machines can be built, with the BRM board
being obtained from the Protolathe, while the Smelter and Refinery
boards being obtainable from the Autolathe instead. A _boulder
processing beacon_ can also be obtained from the mining points vendor as
a reward to assist with boulder processing. Boulder processing beacons
can be used to spawn in a new BRM, refinery, and smelter on the tile the
user is standing on, however **you'll still need to link them to the
ORM**!

All three machines can be upgraded with Stock Parts, allowing for **more
boulders to be processed at a time**. It does not, however, increase the
amount of minerals received from boulders, or points earned.

Mining borgs have been given some minor adjustments to compensate for
the changes to mining. Their mineral scanner, which now has an active
component to gameplay, is now a module as opposed to built into the mob.
This module allows for the same ability to discover and start waves of
monsters to fight.

Mining modules will find that their PKA now has a total of 90% mod
capacity as compared to the 80% they had before, to allow for more
robust defense of ore vents.

In addition, all borgs and AIs can interact with the BRM for boulder
collection.

Mining Mechs have had their utility tweaked as a result of these changes
as well. Mineral scanners to be used on mining mechs now have a larger
radius by comparison to their handheld cousins. Similarly, it now has an
active scanning button, which will actively discovery nearby ore vents.
To begin wave defense, you will need to hop out and scan a second time
however, so that you can properly accept the risks of drawing a horde of
bloodthirsty wildlife towards you and your companions.

Mechs can also manually process boulders, similar to mining tools using
their drill.

Golems, being more gentle and less aggressive than humans, while being
made out of LITERAL ROCKS, have a greater need to secure access to ores
and minerals to eat. As such, they have adapted to be able to do two new
things:

- Golems may now right click ore vents to be able to manually haul a
boulder out of the vent. This costs a hefty amount of stamina, but it
allows for golems to avoid combat during regular gameplay.
- Golems may now left click a boulder with an open hand in order to
manually process a boulder like a pickaxe. While not faster, it is
consistent and prevents golems from starving if they have access to a
vent, but no ores, somehow.

The labor camp, being a camp for rehabilitation and ~~excessive manual
labor~~ has been tweaked. Boulders now replace the random minerals
located on their island, and to acquire their prizes inside, much be
excavated and then broken out of the rock. Now YOU TOO can excavate
minerals and become a true mineral hero by working your way to freedom.

As a result of fewer mining points being available across the map due to
the new ore spawning mechanics, and the shift in how and when ores will
be coming in, almost every progress based mining point cost has been
reduced by around 10-20%. Many numbers are still subject to change at
present, but the idea is that core progress unlocks should be made a bit
more available earlier in the round before players can start to solo or
duo larger or more difficult ore vents, after which they'll be rolling
in ores.

Every once in awhile, an unusual boulder will get hauled up from the
mineral rich depths of lavaland. These **Artifact boulders** can
occasionally produce rare items, but for now they've mostly just been
pulling up **Strange objects** for science. Nanotrasen Natural Sciences
department will reward you extra points to be collected by boulder
processing machines for successfully extracting one. In the future, this
opens up a passive reward space that mining can reward to the station,
like providing cytology DNA samples, ancient seeds, or other artifacts.

- Boulders can be stored in all varieties of ore boxes (ground, mech)
should you choose, however as mentioned it's best to leave them where
they spawn and teleport them to the station for convenience.
- Maps that are not subject to cave generation will find that they are
largely untouched in terms of mineral balance.
- Future or existing ruins can now be tweaked to have a mineral balance
cost, as the ore vent ruin does. This will allow us to spawn in more
interesting ruins for pre-made combat challenges.
- There are unique ore vents that spawn across the map, that will summon
a boss mob relevant to that map. If the boss mob is defeated, that vent
will spawn large boulders pulling from every possible ore type that can
spawn. Not for the faint of heart!
- Similarly, the number of ore vents and mineral budget is now
adjustable in the cave generation procs, so maps may spawn with more or
less ore vents as desired for balance.
- Artifact boulders opens up a LOT of room for possible future content
like archaeology, xenoarch, artisci, and other design spaces!
- Megafauna STILL SPAWN ON THE MAP. They just happen to spawn in
addition to boss ore vents.
- **I'll add more to this as I get asked questions and remember things,
this is a huge PR and I'm confident I've missed at least something**

I outlined a lot of this in #78040, so I'll try and keep this relatively
snappy this time, while noting that I've made some concessions to make
the whole system a lot more playable while not trying to break out
design decisions that are at the end of the day, better for the game and
the overall resource balance in round.

Minerals are a very poorly balanced system, and have been since their
inception many years ago. We heavily rely on mineral balance in round,
and yet we've really only balanced it by introducing so much supply that
there's no equivalent exchange for materials that doesn't just heavily
flood the exchanged material. For example, items printed from materials
that are otherwise considered "rare" on master exist in such quantities
and they'll never practically run out in our allotted 90 minute time
slot design. This PR adjusts how ores spawn to a point where we can
minimize the amount of ores that need to exist on the map for mining to
be able to progress, while still providing enough resources for the
station that it covers the needs of the station adequately.

Miners will need to be more strategic about what resources they've
collected, and be able to make decisions about which vents are worth the
risk of attempting to fight, how to prepare for a wave defense, and when
to head back up for upgrades, while finally giving them at least some
kind of incentive to work together and use different equipment.
Resonators make cleaning up the caves around vent easy, sandbags set up
easy defenses for your vent, mechs can serve as a wider range radar
while mining, all while still providing a new gameplay loop to mining.

By limiting the amount of ores that can enter the round from the
massive, massive amounts that were coming into the round beforehand (see

gameplay to the processing of minerals. I have some plans for that,
however this PR already got bloated really REALLY badly due to scope
creep and the number of intersecting systems that rammed into each other
to make this PR possible. So that'll be next. Plus, as I've mentioned,
we open up places for ore processing to find fossils, relics, and other
things that can implemented down the line.

Overall, I don't expect this PR to save or kill ore balance, but we gain
a LOT more control over it through the use of our mining defines
attached to this PR, and at the end of the day, that's a great place to
start off of.

add: Added ore vents. Scanning them with mining scanners shows what
minerals they contain. Scan again to fight off a horde of beasts as your
drone assistant excavates the vent, so the ore vent will produce mineral
boulders!
bal: Ores that spawn in walls now spawn based on their proximity to ore
vents, with their chance to spawn and their minerals contained scaling
from low to high.
add: Added the BRM, Refinery, and Smelter. These pieces of equipment are
used to process ore boulders into minerals for the station. Stock Part
upgrades allow more boulders to be processed at one time. They collect
mining points as well, to be redeemed with an ID card swipe.
add: Boulders are teleported to the station via the BRM if left
untouched. Boulders can also be cracked open for a reduced amount of ore
using pickaxes or golems hands.
add: All stations come equipt with a pre-excavated ore vent, which
produces a basic supply of iron and glass only. Scan other vents for
your critical resources!
add: Look there's a shit ton of changes on mining, for more detail check
out the Pull Request: https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/pull/78524.
sound: New sounds and noises for your high octane factorio-like
gameplay!
image: All new boulder sprites for the new minerals and rocks added to
the mining gameplay loop, as well as mining machines!

ArcaneMusic 002051a3d5 ArcMining Pr Beta: Version 1.2 (#78524)
This one's not like the last one, so much so that I'm not even going to
outsource the PR description to a robot this time!
Basically, **You should read the PR body before assuming that everything
is the same as last time. It's not.**

## Video Summary

pull request.

## About The Pull Request
This pull request serves as a large rework of minerals produced by
mining, and by extension mining itself. I'll try and list each change
and it's associated nuance here.

### Ore Vents
The biggest addition to the game with ArcMining is **Ore Vents**. Ore
vents spawn as a ruin on the map, placing a randomized ore vent onto map
generation. Ore vents spawn in 3 different sizes, **Small, Medium, and
Large**. These vents will pick from a pool of materials they can
generate, and will hang out across the map. A player can use a mining
scanner to discover an ore vent, granting a small quantity of **mining
points** to begin with. Once scanned, ore vents will show what minerals
that ore vent will generate after they're fully tapped.

Scanning the vent again will trigger the extraction process. A small
drone will fly down, called the NODE drone, and buckle onto the vent.
Your job during wave defense is to protect the drone and to defeat waves
of randomly spawning mobs (dependent on if you're on lavaland or on
icebox). The quantity, duration, and time between waves is scaled to the
size of the vent you're protecting. Starting by scanning and protecting
lower tier vents earlier in the shift is a safer bet than doing a large
vent in the first few minutes. The drone has 500 health, and can take a
good few hits, but leaving it alone will cause it to meet an unfortunate
end quite quickly.

Cooperation can be your best asset, as mining with allies can greatly
help with wave defense, and mineral points are granted to anyone who
helps with defending the ore vent equally (So 500 * size tier,
regardless of how much help you receive). Once complete, the ore vent
will have a mining machine constructed on top of it, and will start to
dredge up **Boulders** from the earth automatically. More on boulders
later.

Ore vents can be located based on your mining scanner, and will provide
an appropriate audio cue based on if the ore vent has been discovered or
not, and once processed will no longer alert you to it's presence.

**Each station comes with a free vent that produces exclusively iron and
glass, free of charge.** This is to help with shifts where the station
may not have shaft miners to produce minerals, and to provide the
station with a baseline amount of minerals where none may exist
otherwise.

## Why It's Good For The Game

I outlined a lot of this in #78040, so I'll try and keep this relatively

By limiting the amount of ores that can enter the round from the

Ben10Omintrix 81e59f7ff2 Goldgrub basic (#77733)
## About The Pull Request
the goldgrub is now a basic monster. the goldgrub will now look for
walls to mine and look for ores to eat. if he finds any nearby humans he
will escape and dig away. also if he sense a storm is coming he will dig
away and only come back out when the storm is gone. the goldgrub will
escape from u but u can now befriend the goldgrub. if u feed him ores he
will love u and become ur pet u can ride him or make him follow u. he
will also help u mine, if u leave him to mine for a bit and come back to
him later u can ask him to spit out all the materials he mined and he
will give them to u. also if u feed him a bluespace ore, he will lay an
egg and have a baby. the goldgrub is very protective over this egg he
will drag it around with him. the goldgrub baby will follow his mom or
dad until he grows up to be like his mom or dad

## Why It's Good For The Game
give the goldgrub more character and now he can help miners to mine if
they befriend him

## Changelog
🆑
refactor: the goldgrub has been refactored please report any bugs
add: the goldgrub can now be tamed and he can have babys

* [no gbp] Lavaland should no longer spawn one million goliaths and watchers (#77716)

## About The Pull Request

Fixes #77709

I made a very smart and sensible and handsome change in a recent PR to
replace `mob/goliath/random` and `mob/watcher/random` subtypes with
spawner effects rather than mobs which qdel themselves on init sometimes
however I neglected to account for how the lavaland map generation was
reliant on those typepaths to space mobs apart

resultingly the map generator would attempt to place lavaland mobs about
12 spaces apart _unless_ they were goliaths or watchers which it would
spawn basically as much as it wanted wherever it wanted

SkyratBot 57272c8d22 [MIRROR] Basic Watchers & Basilisks [MDB IGNORE] (#23137)
* Basic Watchers & Basilisks (#77630)

## About The Pull Request

This one is a double feature because Watchers and Basilisks share the
same typepath. You might see a couple more of those.
As is tradition I decided to fuck with them rather than just port them.
Here's what's up.

**Basilisks**

![image](https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/assets/7483112/9e4b0115-65dd-4df7-b62a-21c7be8549bf)

- Have a new soulless sprite which looks less like a living blue hedge.
- Walk at you and shoot you while you are not in range (just like
before).
- Become supercharged if they become "heated" by lava, lasers, or
temperature weapons. This was a feature they also previously had but
they would never encounter lava, so now it also works if you use the
wrong gun on them.
- Lose their supercharge if you cool them down.
- Otherwise pretty normal mobs.

**Watchers**

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kOq_Bf78k5A
Here's a traditional video of me intentionally getting hit by mechanics
(trust me its definitely on purpose)

- They glow emmissively a little bit so you can see them from further
away.
- Their eyes light up about 0.5 seconds before they are able to shoot at
you.
- No longer melee attack, instead try to stay out of melee.
- Will occasionally put you into "Overwatch", meaning they will shoot
you rapidly if you move or act while they're staring at you for a brief
time period (after which you become immune for 12 seconds, and during
which other watchers will play fair and stop shooting at you).
- If they start taking damage they will also start using their "Gaze"
attack, look away or suffer some kind of negative effect!
- - Normal watcher gaze flashes and confuses you.
- - Magmawing watcher gaze obviously burns (and briefly stuns) you.
- - Icewing watcher gaze freezes you and throws you backwards.
- Magnetically attract and eat diamonds. They also used to do this, but
just if they happened to coincidentally walk past some.

**Other accompanying changes**

All basic mobs will now adopt the "stop gliding" trait if they get
slowed down too much.
I moved behaviour for "fire a projectile from this atom" into a helper
proc because I was using it in three places and I will probably use it
in more places. There are probably other places in the existing code
which could be using this.
I think I made the basic mob melee attack forecast default a little more
forgiving, they were fucking me up too much and I am the playtester.

## Why It's Good For The Game

Another one off the list.
New tricks for old dogs.
Framework for making mobs with ranged attacks "fairer" (you can see when
they are ready to shoot you).
More (hopefully) versatile AI behaviours which we will reuse later (I
hope I'm not duplicating one someone already made).
If our players "enjoy" them enough we can give more mobs "don't look at
me" mechanics.
Removes some soul sprites.

## Changelog

🆑
refactor: Basilisks and Watchers now use the basic mob framework. Please
bug report any unusual behaviour.
sprite: Basilisks have new sprites.
add: Basilisks will go into a frenzy if heated by energy weapons or
temperature beams as well as by lava.
add: Watcher eyes will be illuminated briefly when they are ready to
fire at you.
add: Watchers can now briefly put you into "Overwatch" and penalise you
for moving while they can see you.
add: Wounded watchers will occasionally punish players who look at them.
balance: Unusual watcher variants are more likely to appear.

Time-Green 61abab479b Planetary station traits: Forever Storm and Forested (#76957)
Adds two new station traits for Icebox:
**Forever Storm**
The storm on icebox never stops and is more intense. You can wear a coat
and drink coffee and be fine

 **Forested**
Icebox top exterior has a different terrain generator, including way
more grass and trees. AND DEER. Natural chasms are replaced with plasma
rivers

<details>
  <summary>Outside</summary>

(the emissives on the trees have been fixed)
  
</details>

## Why It's Good For The Game

There are no icebox specific station traits, so I added them! The
exterior is very static, samey and could honestly be a lot more
interesting. Having the outside area be varied is something that
freshens up icebox a little! (3x3 icebox is inevitable...)

Forever Storm: I think storms are pretty spooky and cool, and having a
permanent storm can change the ambience a bit and make everyone feel
more isolated. Exploration is not recommended, but you can totally still
go outside at increased risk. Pretty rare and can only happen on icebox

Forested: Forests are dope. It's pretty common for a station trait, but
factoring in that this only happens on icebox, I think it's fair

I've also had to split apart turf and object generation so stuff doesn't
spawn above rivers/chasms anymore. I tested it and I didn't seem to have
broken anything, so that's pretty cool

closes #75154

🆑
add: Adds a Forested planetary station trait! Icebox exterior is now a
forest!
add: Adds a Forever Storm planetary station trait! Sometimes, the storm
never stops. Stay inside or get some coffee and warm clothes
fix: fixes stuff spawning in rivers and above chasms
fix: emissive blockers on random flora not updating

SkyratBot 35e28a5b4a [MIRROR] Goliath basic mob [MDB IGNORE] (#22412)
* Goliath basic mob (#76754)

## About The Pull Request

Converts Goliaths to the basic mob framework and gives them some new
moves because I can't leave things well enough alone.
I am planning on touching all the lavaland fauna and then maybe even the
icebox ones if I haven't got bored. The Golaith is the first because it
is iconic.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JNcKvMwT4-Q
Here's me getting killed by one as a demonstration. Despite my poor
performance I would contend that they aren't a _lot_ more dangerous, but
they are a little more dangerous.

The chief difference here is that they have two new attacks which they
will only use in response to being attacked.
If fired at from range, they will target the attacker with a line of
tentacles (it doesn't track you, so is easily sidestepped).
If attacked in melee, they will surround _themselves_ with tentacles, on
a longer cooldown.

Something else you may notice in this video: I discovered that basic
mobs are actually _too smart_ to be Lavaland fauna.
Typically (unlike their old form) a mob on our new AI system is smart
enough to attack someone _the moment they come into range_ rather than
only checking on predictable ticks, which would make using the Crusher
an essentially unviable prospect.
To counteract this, Goliaths now have a delayed attack component which
gives you a visual warning and short duration to get out of range before
they swing at you. I will probably put this on all mining fauna that get
reworked, it wouldn't be a terrible thing to put on other mobs to be
honest.

Other changes: The goliath stun is now a status effect with _buckles_
you to the tentacle as if grabbed, as well as its previous effects.
While this seems purely worse, any nearby helpers can now help-click on
you to instantly remove the debuff.
Experiencing the effect of a Lobstrosity Rush Gland makes you immune to
being grabbed by tentacles and an implanted one will automatically
trigger and free you if you are hit, and the explosive effect of
Brimdust also causes the tentacle to retract (although you'd need to
take damage for this to happen). Using the tools of the land, you can
make these creatures less threatening.

The ability for a Goliath to chain-apply the ability has now also been
reduced, it won't refresh its duration if you are hit when already
buckled.

When not occupied hounding miners, Goliaths will intermittently dig up
the asteroid sand and eat any worms that this produces.
I also made some new sprites for riding a Goliath because they've been
broken since the Lavaland mob update and also kind of were ugly before
then anyway:

![image](https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/assets/7483112/90580403-d82f-4c29-b3e1-6c462e01edda)

Other code changes:
- I made an element which only lets an attached object move every x
seconds. This is because Goliaths are far too slow to use the speed
system (the glide just looks bugged as hell) but one thing I am invested
in when converting these is to make sure that they share the same
behaviour when player or AI controlled. This is disabled while you're
riding them because it was interminably slow.
- The Goliath tentacle trail uses a supertype object now shared with the
Meteor Heart which did something kind of similar.

## Why It's Good For The Game

It begins the process of moving one of our larger subsets of NPCs onto
the newer framework for NPC behaviour.
It adds a little bit more life to an iconic but slightly uninteresting
foe which mostly just walked at you slowly.
This PR contains a few components I expect to apply more widely to other
mobs in the future.

## Changelog

🆑
refactor: Goliaths now use the Basic Mob framework, please report any
unusual behaviour.
add: Goliaths learned a couple of new attacks which they will use in
self-defence.
balance: Help-clicking a miner grabbed by Goliath tentacles will
immediately free them, as will the effect of several items you can
scavenge from around Lavaland.
image: New sprites for the Goliath saddle.

John Willard b5975bd915 Unit tests now catch decals in walls/space (#75189)
## About The Pull Request

Unit tests will now fail if there's a decal in a wall or open space
turf. Open space turf could be limiting to mappers but I don't think it
makes sense for decals (like dirt, glass shards, etc) to be floating
around in space in the exact same spot.

If there's a decal you want to put in space, decals have a
``turf_loc_check`` var that will bypass this.

**Important note: This is not changing existing behavior. Decals already
delete themselves when they spawn in these incorrect locations, we're
just avoiding them from spawning in the first place.**

### Changes I made

- Ash flora are now lava immune, rivers spawn after flora does, so I
decided that it would be easiest (and more flavorful) to have them be
lava-immune rather than to not have them spawn at all.
- Decals can now be spawned in non-turf locations. This is currently
done by mail, which can give you bones as part of the mail. Currently it
will just delete itself instead.
- Trading Card button is now on the same tile as their display, which
now uses an offset. Before it would spawn it on the tile next to it,
which could be a wall in some instances.
- Mirrors now have floating movement type. They ARE floating since
they're attached to the wall, and it prevents them from burning up due
to lava in the Pride ruin.
- I also added a broken mirror subtype because I thought the icon_state
check was terrible.
- Bubblegum called ``DestroySurroundings`` several times on the same
thing, I hopefully fixed some of that. Their charge ability also
registered ``COMSIG_MOB_STATCHANGE`` despite ``/datum/action`` doing it
by default, so I fixed that too.

## Why It's Good For The Game

Decals in walls is already a bad idea, but currently all it does is
delete it on Initialize. It would be better if we ensured they wouldn't
spawn in the first place.

## Changelog

fix: Lava will no longer burn 6 of the mirrors in pride ruin

Basically the lavaland ruin sucks dogshit and I had to do a lot of stuff to account for everything failing. There was even a moment where we were adding something to `flags_1` instead of `turf_flags` and that was also really bad to figure out.

i also had to add orange genturfs because it was really getting bad with all of the assertions we had to keep making, especially since stuff like this could also show up:

That's the prison in the red box, those are active turfs because a chasm scraped it away.

Sorry if this is hard to follow but I promise you everything in this is essential. I wish we didn't have to rely on turf flags as much as we do but this is a fix PR, not a refactor.
## Why It's Good For The Game

Even one active turf on IceBox ate up _three_ seconds of SSair's initialization every single time it was really fucking bad.

We haven't had to deal with chasms for about two years so there's a lot of mapping assertions we made since they just weren't a thing, but now they're back so lets do it properly.
## Changelog
🆑
fix: The prison on IceBox should no longer leak air as often.
/🆑

I have compiled this map about 30 times until active turfs stopped fucking happening and now I am content. This likely doesn't fix _everything_ because some stuff can still be hidden to me, and we still have PRs that need to be merged to reduce the amount of noise we're getting on prod.

RikuTheKiller 5da871e271 Made geysers easier to find (#71608)
## About The Pull Request

This PR raises the geyser spawn rate from 0.1 to 0.15 and increases the
weight of wittel geysers to 10 which is the same as every other special
geyser. (previously 6)

Wittel shouldn't be any less difficult to find than other geysers as all
of the special geysers are equally powerful. Hyper-plasmium oxide can be
used to make extremely powerful explosives that can go beyond maxcaps
and hollow water + protozine can create an infinite amount of strange
reagent.

I've subjected myself to going out of my way to visit lavaland/icemoon
several times to get wittel and each time finding a single geyser takes
about 5 minutes of my time. This, coupled with the fact you really don't
have a lot of time to be wasting on looking for the geysers results in
an unfun experience.

I understand geysers are sort of a necessary evil, however, they
shouldn't be THIS difficult to find. Out of the 10 or so geysers I've
found, only 1 has had wittel in it and it was next to a whelp portal
which ended both me and my miner escort.

I've also hunted the entirety of lavaland with no luck. (Horrendous
experience.)

I've dedicated entire rounds to this, by the way.
## Why It's Good For The Game

If you go out of your way to waste ages hunting for geysers, there
should at least be a reward. That is, in the same round, not after 3 or
more rounds as even megafauna gear isn't gatekept THAT hard.

You shouldn't have to waste this much of a miner's time (who is also
going for megafauna gear) to get something that is arguably less
powerful than what they get for less effort. Megafauna gear is also
available every round and is attained via predictable methods.

This PR will also likely make geyser scanning a more comparable method
of point gain to just mining.

Oh and not to mention that penthrite is available almost roundstart via
luxpens. (It's a wittel chem.)
## Changelog
🆑
balance: Geysers now spawn more often, especially wittel geysers.

LemonInTheDark d34fa4c642 Macro optimizes SSmapping saving 50% (#69632)
* 'optimizes' space transitions by like 0.06 seconds, makes them easier to read tho, so that's an upside

* ''''optimizes'''' parsed map loading

I'm honestly not sure how big a difference this makes, looked like small
percentage points if anything
It's a bit more internally concistent at least, which is nice. Also I
understand the system now.

I'd like to think it helped but I think this is kinda a "do you think
it's easier to read" sort of situation. if it did help it was by the
skin of its teeth

* Saves 0.6 seconds off loading meta and lavaland's map files

This is just a lot of micro stuff.
1: Bound checks don't need to be inside for loops, we can instead bound the iteration counts
2: TGM and DMM are parsed differently. in dmm a grid_set is one z level,
   in tgm it's one collumn. Realizing this allows you to skip copytexts and
   other such silly in the tgm implemenentation, saving a good bit of time
3: Min/max bounds do not need to be checked inside for loops, and can
   instead be handled outside of them, because we know the order of x
   and y iteration. This saves 0.2 seconds

I may or may not have made the code harder to read, if so let me know
and I'll check it over.

* Micro ops key caching significantly. Fixes macros bug

inserting \ into a dmm with no valid target would just less then loop
the string. Dumb

Anyway, optimizations. I save a LOT of time by not needing to call
find_next_delimiter_position for every entry and var set. (like maybe 0.5
seconds, not totally sure)
I save this by using splittext, which is significantly faster. this
would cause parsing issues if you could embed \n into dmms, but you
can't, so I'm safe.

Lemme see uh, lots of little things, stuff that's suboptimal or could be
done cheaper. Some "hey you and I both know a \" is 2 chars long sort of
stuff

I removed trim_text because the quote trimming was never actually used,
and the space trimming was slower then using the code in trim. I also
micro'd trim to save a bit of time. this saves another maybe 0.5.

Few other things, I think that's the main of it. Gives me the fuzzy
feelings

* Saves 50% of build_coordinate's time

Micro optimizing go brrrrr
I made turf_blacklist an assoc list rather then just a normal one, so
lookups are O(log n) instead of O(n). Also it's faster for the base case
of loading mostly space.

Instead of toggling the map loader right before and right after New()
calls, we toggle at the start of mapload, and disable then reenable if
we check tick. This saves like 0.3 seconds

Rather then tracking an area cache ourselves, and needing to pass it
around, we use a locally static list to reference the global list of
area -> type. This is much faster, if slightly fragile.

Rather then checking for a null turf at every line, we do it at the
start of the proc and not after. Faster this way, tho it can in theory
drop area vvs.

Avoids calling world.preloader_setup unless we actually have a unique
set of attributes. We use another static list to make this comparison
cheap. This saves another 0.3

Rather then checking for area paths in the turf logic, or vis versa, we
assume we are creating the type implied by the index we're reading off.
So only the last type entry will be loaded like a turf, etc.
This is slightly unsafe but saves a good bit of time, and will properly
error on fucked maps.

Also, rather then using a datum to hold preloader vars, we use 2 global
variables. This is faster.

This marks the end of my optimizations for direct maploading. I've
reduced the cost of loading a map by more then 50% now. Get owned.

* Adds a define for maploading tick check

* makes shuttles load again, removes some of the hard limits I had on the reader for profiling

* Macro ops cave generation

Cave generation was insanely more expensive then it had any right to be.
Maybe 0.5 seconds was saved off not doing a range(12) for EVERY SPAWNED
MOB.
0.14 was saved off using expanded weighted lists (A new idea of mine)
This is useful because I can take a weighted list, and condense it into
weight * path count. This is more memory heavy, and costs more to
create, but is so much faster then the proc.

I also added a naive implementation of gcd to make this a bit less bad.
It's not great, but it'll do for this usecase.

Oh and I changed some ChangeTurfs into New()s. I'm still not entirely
sure what the core difference between the two is, but it seems to work
fine.
I believe it's safe because the turf below us hasn't init'd yet, there's
nothing to take from them. It's like 3 seconds faster too so I'll be sad
when it turns out I'm being dumb

* Micros river spawning

This uses the same sort of concepts as the last change, mostly New being
preferable to ChangeTurf at this level of code.
This bit isn't nearly as detailed as the last few, I honestly got a bit
tired. It's still like 0.4 seconds saved tho

* Micros ruin loading

Turns out it saves time if you don't check area type for every tile on a
ruin. Not a whole ton faster, like 0.03, but faster.

Saves even more time (0.1) to not iterate all your ruin's turfs 3 times
to clear away lavaland mobs, when you're IN SPACE who wrote this.

Oh it also saves time to only pull your turf list once, rather then 3
times

LemonInTheDark 0e904f7032 [MDB IGNORE] Moves non floor turfs off /floor. You can put lattices on lavaland edition (#65504)
About The Pull Request

Alternative to #65354

Ok so like, there was a lot of not floor types on /floor. They didn't actually want any of their parent type's functionality, except maybe reacting to breaking (which was easy to move down) and some other minor stuff.
Part of what we don't want them to have is "plateable" logic.
I should not be able to put floor tiles on the snow and be fine. It's dumb.

Instead, I've moved all non floor types down to a new type, called /misc.

It holds very little logic. Mostly allowing pipes and wires and preventing blob stuff.
It also supports lattice based construction, which is one of the major changes here. I think it makes more sense, and it fixes an assumption in shuttle code that assumed you couldn't place "a new tile" by just hitting some snow with a floor tile.
Oh and lattices don't smooth with asteroid tiles anymore, this looks nicer I think.

Moving on to commits, and minor changes

Changes clf3 to try and burn any turfs it's exposed to, instead of just floors
Moves break_tile down to the turf definition, alongside burn_tile
If you're in basic buildmode and click on anything that's not handled in a targeted way, you just build plating
FUNCTION CHANGE: you can't use cult pylons to convert misc tiles over anymore
Generalizes building floors on top of something into two helper procs on /turf/open, reducing copypasta
Adds a new turf flag, IS_SOLID, that describes if a turf is tangible or not.
Uses this alongside a carpet and open check to replace plating and floor checks in carpet code. This does mean that non iron tiles can be carpeted, but I think that's fine

Moves the /floor update_icon -> update_visuals call to /open
This change is horrificly old, dating back to 8e112f6 but that commit describes nothing about why it was done. Choosing to believe it was a newfriend mistake. Uncomfortable nuking it though, because of just how old it is. Moving down instead

Create a buildable "misc" type off open, moves /dirt onto it
Basically, we want a type we can use to make something support
construction, since that can be a messy bit of logic. Also enough
structure to set things up sanely.

I'm planning on moving most misc turfs onto it, if only because
constructing on a dirt tile with rods should be possible, and the same
applies to most things

Murders captain planet, disentangles /turf/open/floor/grass/snow/basalt

Adds a diggable component that applies the behavior of "digging"
something out from a turf.

Uses it to free the above pain typepath into something a bit more
sensible

The typepaths that aren't actually used by floor tiles are moved onto
/misc

The others are given names that better describe them, and kept in
fancy_floor

Oh and snowshoes don't work on basalt anymore, sorry

Snowed over platings now actually have broken/burned icon states, fixing black holes to nowhere

Misc turfs no longer smooth as floors, so lattices will ignore them

Placing a lattice will no longer scrape the tile it's on

Ok this is a really old one.
I believe this logic is a holdover from kor's baseturf pr
(97990c9)
It used to be that turfs didn't have a concept of "beneath" and instead
just decided what should be under them by induction. This logic of "if
it's being latticed scapeaway to space" made sense then, but has since
been somewhat distorted

We do want to scape away on lattice spawn sometimes, mostly when we're
being destroyed, but not always. We especially don't want to scape away
if someone is just placing a rod, that's dumb.

Adds a path updating script for this change

I've done my best to find all the errors this repathing will pull out, but I may have missed some. I'm sorry.
Why It's Good For The Game

Very old code made better, more consistent turfs for lavaland and icebox, better visuals, minor fix to snowed plating, demon banishment in lattice placement, fixes the icebox mining shuttle not being repairable
Changelog

cl
add: Rather then being tileable with just floor tiles, lavaland turfs, asteroid and snow (among other things) now support lattice -> floor tile construction
fix: Because of the above, you can now properly fix the icebox mining shuttle
refactor: Non floor turfs are no longer typed as floor. This may break things, please yell at me if it does
