This imaginary friend doesn't show up on health scan (obviously), and
they communicate via hivemind chat, meaning all other changelings are
capable of hearing them
If your body is revived, you get yoinked out of the hivemind as you'd
expect
You also have a button to eject yourself from the hivemind (if you
prefer to observe).
And the ling themselves has a button to eject people from their hivemind
that are being annoying
## Why It's Good For The Game
Makes being absorbed a little less of a bummer, now you can tag along
and maybe even give them some tips about how your character would act if
they choose to disguise as you.
## Changelog

## About The Pull Request
Continues https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/pull/81507
Adds a directional muzzle flash to all guns (excluding suppressors,
toys, e-bow, etc).
Changes color depending on the laser/projectile.

## About The Pull Request
Updates the laser gun into four proper subtypes: Standard, Pistol, Rifle
and Carbine.
<img width="229" height="210" alt="image"

/>
Current sprites are pending a palette change.
**Standard:** Functions as you would expect. Same as ever.
**Pistol**: Lower charge, 20 force, normal sized, recharges faster.
**Carbine**: 15 force, 26 mag, two round burst. Projectiles flight
slightly faster. Cannot dual-wield.
**Rifle**: 20 force. 40 mag. Two round burst. EMP resistant (not
immune). Projectiles fly slightly faster. Cannot dual-wield (not that
you need to).
All but the rifle can be sourced from cargo. You can also buy the sovl
version of the laser gun if you're especially nostalgic.
### Armory Changes
The Armory now can potentially spawn either pistols, carbines or
standard. The weighting leans closer to spawning carbines and standard
as opposed to pistols.
### Lore Dump
The laser line of weapons now all have lore. That rich, deep lore that
every game needs and is totally not important at all to the meat and
potatoes of the game. I'm paid by the hour ($0.00)
### Code Tidying
Lasers are old and a total mess code-wise so we've tidied up while we're
here.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Variety is the spice of life and also some of these weapons could have
used a face lift. Especially the laser carbine. Both functionaltiy wise
and appearance wise.
A bit of randomness in the armory means some rounds might have unique
outcomes compared to others. Sometimes, items in cargo don't see
particularly much use, so peppering in a few random potential deviations
can maybe nudge people to utilize variant gear on future rounds.
I'm obsessed with writing too much information. I blame Hatterhat.
## Changelog
🆑
add: Three variants of the laser gun; Carbine (replacing the existing
one), Pistol and Rifle! Find it (possibly) in your armory today!
balance: The armory laser guns might be different variants of the laser
gun, rather than always being the standard. The standard is the same as
ever, even if it looks different.
add: If you care, the sovl version is available as a goodie. And in the
hands of pirates...
spellcheck: Lore! LORE FOR LASER GUNS! LOOOORE! Examine laser guns
closely and you might learn more about them.
balance: The new set of laser guns come with brand new sprites.

## About The Pull Request
Removes the quite weird 4 second density delay from security barriers.
That's kind of what the grenade timer is for.
Refactors barricade interactions to use tool acts and
item_interaction(), rather than attackby. Also makes it so that wooden
barricades don't....delete themselves and spawn a new one instead when
repaired?
## Why It's Good For The Game
> Security Barrier
I think this was potentially depreciated code that was grandfathered
forward in new forms. Very few places seem to explain WHY it has that
but I think that might have been how barrier grenades used to spawn in
their barrier from the grenade itself. Totally inexplicable really.
> Refactors
This codes old as hell, some of it nearly a decade.

## About The Pull Request
This PR aims to clean or bring up to date portions of code about dna,
the dna console and mutations. This includes taking care of or removing
some of the awful choices like the pratically useless
`datum/mutation/human` pathing, or the class variable, in favor of using
sources to avoid potential issues with extraneous sources of a mutation.
The files changed are over a hundred just because I removed the
`datum/mutation/human` path, but the actual bulk of the code is mainly
shared between the datum/dna.dm, _mutations.dm and dna_console.dm.
## Why It's Good For The Game

## About The Pull Request
Revival of https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/pull/86482, which is
even more doable now that we have rustg iconforge generation.
What this PR does:
- Sets up every single GAGS icon in the game to have their own preview
icon autogenerated during compile. This is configurable to not run
during live. The icons are created in `icons/map_icons/..`
- This also has the side effect of providing accurate GAGS icons for
things like the loadout menu. No more having to create your own
previews.
<details><summary>Mappers rejoice!</summary>
</details>
<details><summary>Uses iconforge so it does not take up much time during
init</summary>
</details>
---
### Copied from https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/pull/86482 as
this still applies:
Note for Spriters:
After you've assigned the correct values to vars, you must run the game
through init on your local machine and commit the changes to the map
icon dmi files. Unit tests should catch all cases of forgetting to
assign the correct vars, or not running through init.
Note for Server Operators:
In order to not generate these icons on live I've added a new config
entry which should be disabled on live called GENERATE_ASSETS_IN_INIT in
the config.txt
## Why It's Good For The Game
No more error icons in SDMM and loadout.
## Changelog
🆑
refactor: preview icons for greyscale items are now automatically
generated, meaning you can see GAGS as they actually appear ingame while
mapping or viewing the loadout menu.

## About The Pull Request
Melee attack chain now has a list passed along with it,
`attack_modifiers`, which you can stick force modifiers to change the
resulting attack
This is basically a soft implementation of damage packets until a more
definitive pr, but one that only applies to item attack chain, and not
unarmed attacks.
This change was done to facilitate a baton refactor - batons no longer
hack together their own attack chain, and are now integrated straight
into the real attack chain. This refactor itself was done because batons
don't send any attack signals, which has been annoying in the past (for
swing combat).
## Changelog
🆑 Melbert
refactor: Batons have been refactored again. Baton stuns now properly
count as an attack, when before it was a nothing. Report any oddities,
particularly in regards to harmbatonning vs normal batonning.
refactor: The method of adjusting item damage mid-attack has been
refactored - some affected items include the Nullblade and knives.
Report any strange happenings with damage numbers.
refactor: A few objects have been moved to the new interaction chain -
records consoles, mawed crucible, alien weeds and space vines, hedges,
restaurant portals, and some mobs - to name a few.
fix: Spears only deal bonus damage against secure lockers, not all
closet types (including crates)

## About The Pull Request
People can now pet held mothroaches and pugs if they want to, or use
items on them, hopefully without causing many issues. After all, it only
took about a couple dozen lines of code to make...
...Oh, did the 527 files changed or the 850~ lines added/removed perhaps
catch your eye? Made you wonder if I accidentally pushed the wrong
branch? or skewed something up big time? Well, nuh uh. I just happen to
be fed up with the melee attack chain still using stringized params
instead of an array/list. It was frankly revolting to see how I'd have
had to otherwise call `list2params` for what I'm trying to accomplish
here, and make this PR another tessera to the immense stupidity of our
attack chain procs calling `params2list` over and over and over instead
of just using that one call instance from `ClickOn` as an argument. It's
2025, honey, wake up!
I also tried to replace some of those single letter vars/args but there
are just way too many of them.

## About The Pull Request
Hitscan projectiles that run out of dedicated tick time before they hit
anything abort their movement, ensuring that firing an emitter beam into
space won't cause horrible lag. However, most hitscans also have icons
and have visible (albeit unanimated) movement in such a case, making it
look like projectile code is exploding as tracers appear only after a
rather visible and tangible projectile hits its target.
This PR resolves the issue by making hitscans "chunk" their trails in
such cases, ensuring that they always look like actual hitscans. Video
below has an artificial speed cap on hitscans, to showcase how it'd look
during extreme lag.

## About The Pull Request
There are a couple of cases where ghost roles that give the temporary
body component prevent you from returning to the round when they really
shouldn't. The particular cases are:
- You entered a temporary body while you had no body, but could be
recovered via means such as podcloning
- You enter a temporary body, and while in that body, your original body
is permanently removed while your mind could be recovered via means such
as podcloning
- Basketball
This PR addresses those cases by allowing the temporary body component
to operate with a null `old_body`, and allowing the temporary body
component to be given to ghosts whose minds don't have bodies.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Erroneous DNRs caused by code oversights are probably very undesirable
to the playerbase.
## Changelog
🆑
fix: Joining a minigame or taking certain ghost roles, while you have a
mind without a body, will no longer DNR you, just in case you can be
resurrected by some means.

minigame or as certain ghost roles, you will still return to your
character's original mind, just in case you can be resurrected by some
means.

On a downstream, we have an antagonist, that is a less competent
wizards. This antagonist's preview outfit has a beer bottle in their
hand, which has caused runtimes, as the bottle did not have any reagents
instantiated, and it tried check its length for sloshing. After putting
in a check for the `initial` argument of `on_equip`, I have noticed that
the problem goes deeper: the various procs that handle putting something
in your hand do not pass along if the items is put in your hand as a
preview or not. This PR adds a new optional var to these procs, ensuring
that unwanted behaviour during previews won't trigger.
I also swapped `visualsOnly` to snake case, as it looked inconsistent
with the rest of the code style.

work with all kinds of items is good.

## About The Pull Request
Radios/encryption keys now use a `RADIO_SPECIAL_XXXXX` bitflag for
behaviors related to "special" radio channels (Binary, Centcom, Syndie).
I decided to do this because I wanted to add a radio channel for pirates
and hunters (hence the branch name), but it felt weird adding two more
variables. The more I look at the changes I've made here the more I
realize that the effort was probably not worth the utility but whatever.
This also subtypes some varedited intercoms and makes them their own
objects.
## Why It's Good For The Game

## Why It's Good For The Game
Saner spriters, better sprites, less annoyance. Also deleted a whole
load of redundancy this time around, a lot of sprites which existed
simultaniously in two places now got exit their quantum superposition.
## About The Pull Request
Adds a new crate to the Service section of cargo. The Fletching and
Bow-Making Starter Kit. Comes with some materials and a fletching
instruction manual.
The manual teaches you how to make shortbows (18 force from normal
arrows utilizing projectile multipliers), arrows, holy arrows (but you
need a divine bow to make them), quivers (but they only hold 10 arrows),
plastic arrows and violins. For reasons.
### Fixes
Bows now no longer utilize hardcoded sprites for their loaded sprite.
Now they use overlays.
Bows properly become undrawn once fired. No longer can your bow
magically launch arrows by sheer force of will.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Initially I just wanted to provide a way for bow wielding chaplains to
produce additional arrows for their bow. Running out of those always
felt pretty lame. But then I got to thinking; actually, I kind of want
to LARP sometimes as an archer. I think that'd be kind of goofy and fun.
So I bundled that together into a solution for both.
The shortbow is really, really not meant to be a meaningful weapon. It's
just kind of silly, and meant to let people pretend to be Robin Hood and
occasionally hurt someone in a workplace accident. I'm particularly
thinking of clowns being the perfect users for this with their clumsy
trait. I will make this weaker if I have too.
(I am not, at this moment, redoing flaming arrows okay? I saw the code
comment. I know. Not right now. @tralezab, if you have any flaming arrow
sprites lying around, please let me know.)
## Changelog
🆑
add: Fletching starter kit! Make your own bow, shoot your friends in an
unfortunate workplace accident. Replace all those holy arrows you lost.
fix: Bows now properly undraw once they have fired an arrow.
code: Bows now utilize overlays in order to display loaded arrows.

## About The Pull Request
Basically, adds a version of `randomize_human` that's a tad more

## About The Pull Request
1. Renames `NO_DECONSTRUCTION` -> `NO_DEBRIS_AFTER_DECONSTRUCTION`. As
the name suggests when the object is deconstructed it won't drop any
items/debris. After my last refactor for this flag it now serves a new
purpose so its name has been changed to match that
2. Fixes objects that are now using `NO_DECONSTRUCTION` incorrectly.
Some of these changes include
- Removing the flag in objects where there are no means to deconstruct
them (e.g. jukebox, hydroponics soil, flora etc)
- Replacing the flags old purpose by overriding its tool procs so that
it regains its old behaviour(e.g. You once again cannot deconstruct ctf
reinforced tables, survival pods, indestructible windows etc)
## Changelog

code: renamed `NO_DECONSTRUCTION` to `NO_DEBRIS_AFTER_DECONSTRUCTION` so
its name matches its intended purpose

## About The Pull Request
I've seen a few cases in the past where LateInitialize is done cause of
the init return value being set to do so for no real reason, I thought I
should try to avoid that by ensuring LateInitialize isn't ever called
without overriding.
This fixes a ton of machine's LateInitialize not calling parent
(mechpad, door buttons, message monitor, a lot of tram machines,
abductor console, holodeck computer & disposal bin), avoiding having to
set itself up to be connected to power. If they were intended to not
connect to power, they should be using ``NO_POWER_USE`` instead.
Also removes a ton of returns to LateInit when it's already getting it
from parent regardless (many cases of that in machine code).
## Why It's Good For The Game
I think this is better for coding standard reasons as well as just
making sure we're not calling this proc on things that does absolutely
nothing with them. A machine not using power can be seen evidently not
using power with ``NO_POWER_USE``, not so much if it's LateInitialize
not calling parent.
## Changelog

consoles & holodeck computers now use power.

## About The Pull Request
This PR does many things, I'll try to explain the basic/background stuff
to the main thing first:
1. Adds a new remote that allows a human to function like an AI. It
controls a fly that will fly around the station slowly, and when it
reaches a machine then the person can interact with it as if they were
an AI. This required changing a lot of silicon/AI checks with one that
also checks for this remote, and some messing with shared ui state.
2. Moves req_access from the obj and bot to ``/atom/movable`` which lets
it be shared between the two, no more copy-paste and one side lacking
features/checks/signals the other has.
3. Adds a check for AI config for AI-related station traits, which was
lacking prior
Now for the good part...
Adds a new station trait that replaces the AI with a Human.
This person is equipped with an AI headset (including Binary), an
advanced camera console, an omni door wand, the machine controller, and
their laws.
They are immune to the SAT's turrets (even if set to target borgs) and
are slow outside of the SAT, mimicing the actions of the AI.
They interact with the world through their advanced camera console,
which allows them to do most AI stuff needed, and the holopad they can
connect to without having to ring first (like Command can).
They are given a paper with the laws they must follow, but since they
are human they are able to bend it. Cyborgs that run the default lawset
are "slaved" to them via an unremovable law 0, so the Human AI can bend
the laws if they really need to (for their own survival n such), and
make the cyborgs obey their commands above laws, but in general this
shouldn't be a frequent occurrence. This does take into account the
unique AI trait, so it's not guaranteed Asimov.
When this station trait rolls, all Intellicards, AI uploads, and AI core
boards are destroyed and are unresearchable. They can be spawned by
admins in-game if necessary. Maybe in the future we can also exclude
Oldstation from this but I haven't really decided.
Extra perks:
Human AI spawns with a Robotic voicebox (unless they are a body purist)
and teleport blocking implant, so they can't use teleporters to bypass
their on-station slowdown.
They also have an infinite laser pointer that can be used to blind
through their camera console. This is unfortunately nerfed from the
recent borg balance PR that removed its stun. This was meant to be the
alternative to no longer being able to permanently lock borgs down like
AIs can (or more than one, for that matter).
They aren't affected by Roburgers, Acid, and Fuel's toxicity.
Bots salute them like they do Beepsky (which is now a trait)
They spawn with SyndEye to replace the AI's tracking ability
They do not have a bank account
### The machine remote
The machine remote has a little fly in it that flies to the machines it
is pointed to, working as the arms and legs of the Human AI. It scans
the machine and punches in the action the AI does, and is how the AI
accesses basically anything. This fly slowly moves from one machine to
the next, and can be recalled with Alt Click.
It works on machines and bots.

## Why It's Good For The Game
I've seen a funny screenshot one day of a person replacing the AI by
using a bunch of door remotes, camera console, crew monitoring console,
and a few other things. I've been thinking about that for a few years
and really wanted to make it official if not easier to make possible,
because it is an incredibly funny interaction.
This makes it a reality, and while they aren't as powerful as regular
AIs, I think it makes for better and funnier in-game moments. With the
same weight as Cargorilla (1), I hope this wouldn't be rolling too often
and ruin rounds, but instead show off the different capabilities that
Humans and AIs can do, to do the job of an AI. You win some you lose
some.

## About The Pull Request
This just seemed like a minor error with the new syntax that popped up:
The intent of these seem to be "take our obj flags and add
`NO_DECONSTRUCTION` to it", which was perfectly serviceable in a
majority of places, as the parent type had the same obj flags as `/obj`.
But in a small handfull of places (such as any table subtypes) this was
not the case, and it caused some objects to have missing flags that they
were otherwise intended(?) to inherit.
So I replaced `/obj::` with `parent_type::` meaning rather than using
the base obj flags and then adding `NO_DECONSTRUCTION`, they use their
parent type's obj flags and then add `NO_DECONSTRUCTION`.

Productionizes #80615.
The core optimization is this:
```patch
- var/hint = to_delete.Destroy(arglist(args.Copy(2))) // Let our friend know they're about to get fucked up.
+ var/hint = to_delete.Destroy(force) // Let our friend know they're about to get fucked up.
```
We avoid a heap allocation in the form of copying the args over to a new
list. A/B testing shows this results in 33% better overtime, and in a
real round shaving off a full second of self time and 0.4 seconds of
overtime--both of these would be doubled in the event this is merged as
the new proc was only being run 50% of the time.
## About The Pull Request
Another small issue fixed. Thanks Melbert for telling us what's wrong
with it.
EDIT: other objects were rendered unhittable by that flags refactor PR.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Fixes#80311. I made the xmas tree indestructible because the comment to
the `NO_DECONSTRUCTION` flag didn't make a load of sense since that
doesn't stop it from getting destroyed anyway.
## Changelog
🆑 MrMelbert, Ghommie
fix: Alien nests, and some other stuff, can be physically attacked
again.
balance: x-mas trees (the ones with presents), are indestructibles.

## About The Pull Request
I woke up today and thought 'what would be easy thing to do today so I
can say I've done something?'. Then I remembered I saw several gangtool
usages the time I split radio up, and I could remedy those. 7 hours
later, device.dmi is split in a folder of its own, and I've also given
unique sprites to door remotes and landing desginators.
## Why It's Good For The Game
The device.dmi was kind of a mess.
## Changelog

This flag only worked on the `/obj/structure` and `/obj/machinery`
level, so let's rescope it from `flags_1` and put it where it belongs -
`obj_flags`.
Bitflag operators should be scoped to their subtype specific bitfield,
not really useful to have this take up a spot on the `/atom` level if
absolutely nothing other than `/obj`s use it.
## About The Pull Request
I'm still not satisfied with how ghost notifications work. This gives
every notification with a source (99% of all notifications, in other
words) a link to jump/orbit. Currently, notifications with "play"
interactions would only get the interact link, so jumping to the source
was pretty annoying.
It removes posting the entire message in the alert tooltip, as some got
pretty lengthy and it didn't seem to fit. To replace this, they will
always use headers
After:
NOTIFY_JUMP and NOTIFY_ORBIT have been merged, since the only difference
seems to be whether it's a turf. The result shaves off some redundant
lines of code, since most-every usage of notify_ghosts uses
NOTIFY_ORBIT.
## Why It's Good For The Game
More standardization for the ghost notification system. Adds a few alert
headers that never had them. All in all, makes it easier for creators to
throw alerts at ghosts
## Changelog
🆑
qol: Nearly every ghost alert should now feature a "VIEW" button, even
those with click interaction.
del: Ghost alerts no longer show the entire message in the tooltip,
instead have been replaced with titles.

## About The Pull Request
If you attempted to use the shielded component properly (applying it in
`Init`), it would not work because the equipped signal was improperly
passing its arguments to `set_wearer`.
The only reason why this worked now is that every consumer added the
component after it was `equipped`... usually in `equipped`.
This also meant shielded items that added it in equipped were open to an
exploit, allowing you to reset the charges by unequip / re-equip.
## Changelog
🆑 Melbert
fix: Fixes some potential exploits and issues involving shielded
equipment.

## About The Pull Request
This helps clean up my favorite helper proc in the whole codebase,
`notify_ghosts()`.
The notify_suiciders, ignore_mapload, and flashwindow args are GONE.
They have been replaced with the notify_flags bitflag argument. This was
intended to make deadchat announcements a bitflag argument too, but
those got reverted right before I originally wanted to submit this PR.
The on-screen popup now shows the notification body when you hover it
with your mouse again. The format is now `[notify_ghosts message] --
[click action (orbit/jump/play)]`
Every single `notify_ghosts()` call has been changed to multiline format
and has been given trailing commas. Pretty!
## Why It's Good For The Game
Cleans up a proc that is very popular and going through a lot of changes
at the time.
Allows for further flexibility when this proc inevitably gets tweaked or
improved. 12 -> 10 args is an improvement, and it doesn't impact the
helper's flexibility at all.
## Changelog
🆑 Rhials
code: The notify_ghosts proc has been cleaned up. Please report any
abnormal changes in deadchat notification behavior.
qol: The on-screen deadchat popups now contain the notification blurb
when hovered with your mouse again.

## About The Pull Request
- Refactored `bullet_act`. Adds `should_call_parent` and refactors
associated children to support that.
- Fixes silicons sparking off when hit by disabler fire.
- Desnowflakes firing range target integrity and cleans up its
bullet-hole code a bit.

off throw mode if you fail to catch something.
- The Sleeping Carp deflection is now signalized
- Nightmare projectile dodging is now signalized and sourced from the
Nightmare's brain rather than species
- Refactored how cardboard cutouts get knocked over to be less
snowflaked / use integrity
- Also adds projectile `on_hit` `should_call_parent` and cleans up a bit
of that, particularly their arguments.
- On hit arguments were passed wrong this entire time, it's a good thing
nothing relied on that.

## About The Pull Request
#78957 accidently made it so CTF could only be played by people with
mobs to return to after dying. I've made it so those who don't have mobs
to return to (e.g. roundstart observers) can play CTF again.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Everyone should be allowed to play CTF without needing to engage with
the space roleplay game we've strapped on.
## Changelog

## About The Pull Request
Currently, the power cost for each shot is just written as a number, and
you have to know the size of the cell to know what this number means. If
you just see than a laser gun costs 83 energy, then it's not clear that
this translates to 12 shots unless you know that the cell holds 1000
units of energy. Now, all energy weapons (except those that cost 0
energy and one that costs 10000) use a macro define in the form of
`LASER_SHOTS(X)`. So the laser gun would example be `LASER_SHOTS(12)`,
to clearly convey that it gets 12 shots out of a full charge.
I also removed the `laser/hellfire/antique` subtype because it had no
mechanical difference from `laser/hellfire` whatsoever.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Readable code is good.
## Changelog
No player facing changes.
## About The Pull Request
You can return to your old body after playing CTF or being summoned as a
manifest rune cult ghost. This is done by slapping the temporary_body
component onto cult rune summons and CTF bodies. This also extends to
Medisim Shuttle knights.
This also blocks suicides from being performed in CTF areas. Ghosting
and "manually" suiciding is, of course, still an option.
## Why It's Good For The Game
There's no reason these two cases should lock you out of being revived.
They both also dust bodies on death or after their job is done, making
them a perfect fit for this component.
Blocking suicides ensures that all bodies are properly "cleaned up" by
the death dusting process. Gun suicides, for instance, would remove the
brain from the body and bypass cleanup. This not only prevents the user
from being returned to their old body, but likely has other unforeseen
problems that leaving a body behind might cause.

## About The Pull Request
Adds a new Wizard Ritual Finale effect which makes everything immortal.
By this I mean, 10 seconds after death a ghostly image of them will
appear somewhere near where the corpse was and then 50 seconds after
that the mob will return to life at that location.
This applies to every mob, everywhere.
This is likely to cause a little bit of disruption to the rest of the
round, so you can only do it after at least 30 minutes have passed.
After that the crew will have to figure out how to deal with their new
gift of immortality. It will involve throwing people into chasms and
lava, probably.
Here's a gif sped up for example purposes.
You can escape from the cycle of death and rebirth via suicide, purely
because it's pointless to try and force people to play the video game if
they don't want to.
Also I split all of these effects into their own files, the only new
code for those is in `immortality.dm`
shout out to Vekter for distracting Oranges while I posted this
wizard-related PR so I didn't get disapprovingly reacted for posting

## About The Pull Request
- Fixed that if you chose to press a cross while toggling instagib mode
it will react as `Yes` instead of just canceling
- Added description for assault class (with shotgun and rocket gloves)
so you know that you have faster moving speed and lover armor.
- Fixed that when you already chose a team and try to click on other
teams spawners you'll be asked to consider other teams to make them
equal.
- Decreased time of recharge start delay from 20 seconds to 12, because
when it takes soo much to regen your shield its just faster to die and
respawn with a new one.
- Added 1.7 scope to marksmans rifle.
- Little cleanup.
**Everything is arguable.**
**Ask if something is unclear or confusing.**
## Why It's Good For The Game
Less buggs, less wondering why do you die in 1 hit and others don't, a
little bit of consistency.
## Changelog

chose your team no more will ask you to join some other team to make
them even.

## About The Pull Request
As the title says. Adds a bunch more stat changes to various different
items and a somewhat simple way of modifying them whilst minimizing
side-effects as much as possible.
Added a new negative curse of polymorph suffix that can randomly
polymorph you once you pick up the item.
Curse of hunger items won't start on items that are not on a turf.
Curse of polymorph will only activate when equipped.
Bodyparts, two-handed melees, bags, guns and grenades, to name a few,
have a bunch of type-specific stat changes depending on their quality.
Some items won't gain fantasy suffixes during the RPG loot event, like
stacks, chairs and paper, to make gamifying the stats a bit harder.
I'm sure there'll still be other ways to game the event, but it's not
that big of a deal since these are the easiest ways to game it.
High level items also have a cool unusual effect aura
## Why It's Good For The Game
Makes the RPG item event cooler. Right now, it's a bit lame since
everything only gains force value and wound bonus on attack. This makes
the statistic increases more type-based and make it interesting to use
It's okay for some items to be powerful since this is a wizard event and
a very impactful one too. By making the curse of hunger items not spawn
on people, it'll also make it a less painful event too.
## Changelog
🆑
add: Expanded the RPG loot wizard event by giving various different
items their own statistic boost.

## About The Pull Request
As the title says, mag type has been split into two variable that do
different things:
Accepted magazine type handles what magazines that gun will accept, type
and any subtypes. If spawn magazine type isnt defined, then it will be
made equal to accepted magazine type to prevent having to double define
magazines on every gun ever.
Spawn magazine type is separate from accepted magazine type, spawn
magazine type is what magazine the gun will actually spawn with. This
exists because there are a few weapons which are made to spawn with
special magazines, that can't use normal magazines anymore. For example,
the riot dart pre-loaded donk soft pistol can only ever be reloaded with
the riot subtype of donk soft magazines at the moment. This isn't
typically something people notice because new magazines are usually not
a thing people come by with these specific weapons, but its a problem I
noticed while coding some weapons.
## Why It's Good For The Game
In short, certain weapons (mostly donksoft weapons, but there's a single
traitor pistol subtype that spawns with fire ammo) will no longer be
limited to the exact subtype of magazine they spawned with, allowing
them to use the normal versions of those magazines as well.
## Changelog
🆑
refactor: The mag_type variable on guns has been split between
accepted_magazine_type and spawn_magazine_type, allowing weapons to
safely spawn with subtypes of their normal magazines without breaking
the weapon
fix: Several weapons that spawned with special magazines, the riot dart
pre-loaded donk pistol for example, will now be able to accept normal
donksoft magazines that don't spawn loaded with riot darts.

## About The Pull Request
Yikes this stuff is messy to work with...
Fairly comprehensive changelist:
- Removed a LOT of redundant .json files, huzzah!
- Moves the Large Scarf into the normal Scarves .json since they're both
2 component states and can thus share a file
- Renamed almost every single config to have the same naming schemes
("Name (Type)")
- Subtyped a majority of the configs to related ones, inheriting where
possible
- Renamed some icons to account for now-inherited .jsons where needed
---
**A relevant question for coders/maintainers:**
As of now, the .json configs are structured with a few rules in place:
- a .json config's states MUST have the same amount of colored component
states
- a .json config can not have states that are not buildable via a linked
.dmi
The second one is proving troublesome; namely, for toggleable clothing.
The object sprites of a majority of these don't change, but the worn
sprites have _d added to the end. For a majority of the cases I've been
able to just share a .json for the object and worn GAGS configs, but for
every toggleable item (such as jumpsuits) they need to keep their own
separate .json just to add a new state.
I'm not knowledged in coding proper systems like this, so I was just
wanting to ask, is there a way that GAGS's .json configs can have
toggle-states without assembling one for the objects?

The reusable and caseless types only purposes are the behaviors of
deleting the casing when fired and spawning a new object when the
projectile ultimately reaches its maximum range or hits a target, both
