## About The Pull Request
Removes a lot of cargo cult copypasta with
`default_deconstruction_screwdriver`, `default_deconstruction_crowbar`,
and to a lesser extent `default_pry_open` and
`default_change_direction_wrench`
ALL you gotta do now if you want your machine to have an openable panel
or be deconstructible with a crowbar is this
```dm
/obj/machinery/dish_drive/screwdriver_act(mob/living/user, obj/item/tool)
return default_deconstruction_screwdriver(user, tool)
/obj/machinery/dish_drive/crowbar_act(mob/living/user, obj/item/tool)
return default_deconstruction_crowbar(user, tool)
```
`default_deconstruction_screwdriver` no longer directly sets
`icon_state`, requiring the user pass in the open and closed icon
states. Now, it just calls `update_appearance`, and everything that once
passed the icon state now uses `base_icon_state` and
`update_icon_state`.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Many of these procs were terribly overcomplicated and difficult to work
with for what should be a relatively simple action
Streamlining it makes it easier for coders to understand and work with

## About The Pull Request
Commit messages should be descriptive of all changes.
The "incorrect `\The` macro capitalization" was intentional when it was
added, but as far as I know TG says "the supermatter" rather than "The
Supermatter," so it's incorrect now.
This is completely untested. I don't even know how you'd go about
testing this, it's just a fuckton of strings.
Someday I want to extract them and run NLP on it to catch grammar
problems...
## Why It's Good For The Game
Basic grammar pass for name strings. Should make `\the` work better and
avoid cases like `the John Smith`.

#82533.
Fixes#81242
(tm bugs fixed)
Fixes#82668
<details><summary>More info for devs</summary>
Handy regex used for alt click s&r:
`AltClick\((.*).*\)(\n\t.*\.\.\(\))?`
`click_alt($1)` (yes I am aware this only copies the first arg. there
are no other args!)
### Obj reskins
No reason for obj reskin to check on every single alt click for every
object. It applies to only a few items.
- Moved to obj/item
- Made into signal
- Added screentips
### Ventcrawling
Every single atmospherics machine checked for ventcrawling capability on
alt click despite only 3 objects needing that functionality. This has
been moved down to those individual items.

- Alt clicking should work more logically, not causing double actions
like eject disk and open item window
- Added context menus for reskinnable items
- Removed adjacency restriction on loot panel
For devs:

## About The Pull Request
Removes all arbitrary energy and power units in the codebase. Everything
is replaced with the joule and watt, with 1 = 1 joule, or 1 watt if you
are going to multiply by time. This is a visible change, where all
arbitrary energy units you see in the game will get proper prefixed
units of energy.
With power cells being converted to the joule, charging one joule of a
power cell will require one joule of energy.
The grid will now store energy, instead of power. When an energy usage
is described as using the watt, a power to energy conversion based on
the relevant subsystem's timing (usually multiplying by seconds_per_tick
or applying power_to_energy()) is needed before adding or removing from
the grid. Power usages that are described as the watt is really anything
you would scale by time before applying the load. If it's described as a
joule, no time conversion is needed. Players will still read the grid as
power, having no visible change.
Machines that dynamically use power with the use_power() proc will
directly drain from the grid (and apc cell if there isn't enough)
instead of just tallying it up on the dynamic power usages for the area.
This should be more robust at conserving energy as the surplus is
updated on the go, preventing charging cells from nothing.
APCs no longer consume power for the dynamic power usage channels. APCs
will consume power for static power usages. Because static power usages
are added up without checking surplus, static power consumption will be
applied before any machine processes. This will give a more truthful
surplus for dynamic power consumers.
APCs will display how much power it is using for charging the cell. APC
cell charging applies power in its own channel, which gets added up to
the total. This will prevent invisible power usage you see when looking
at the power monitoring console.
After testing in MetaStation, I found roundstart power consumption to be
around 406kW after all APCs get fully charged. During the roundstart APC
charge rush, the power consumption can get as high as over 2MW (up to
25kW per roundstart APC charging) as long as there's that much
available.
Because of the absurd potential power consumption of charging APCs near
roundstart, I have changed how APCs decide to charge. APCs will now
charge only after all other machines have processed in the machines
processing subsystem. This will make sure APC charging won't disrupt
machines taking from the grid, and should stop APCs getting their power
drained due to others demanding too much power while charging. I have
removed the delays for APC charging too, so they start charging
immediately whenever there's excess power. It also stops them turning
red when a small amount of cell gets drained (airlocks opening and shit
during APC charge rush), as they immediately become fully charged
(unless too much energy got drained somehow) before changing icon.
Engineering SMES now start at 100% charge instead of 75%. I noticed
cells were draining earlier than usual after these changes, so I am
making them start maxed to try and combat that.
These changes will fix all conservation of energy issues relating to
charging powercells.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Closes#73438Closes#75789Closes#80634Closes#82031
Makes it much easier to interface with the power system in the codebase.
It's more intuitive. Removes a bunch of conservation of energy issues,
making energy and power much more meaningful. It will help the
simulation remain immersive as players won't encounter energy
duplication so easily. Arbitrary energy units getting replaced with the
joule will also tell people more meaningful information when reading it.
APC charging will feel more snappy.
## Changelog
🆑
fix: Fixes conservation of energy issues relating to charging
powercells.
qol: APCs will display how much power they are using to charge their
cell. This is accounted for in the power monitoring console.
qol: All arbitrary power cell energy units you see are replaced with
prefixed joules.
balance: As a consequence of the conservation of energy issues getting
fixed, the power consumption for charging cells is now very significant.
balance: APCs only use surplus power from the grid after every machine
processes when charging, preventing APCs from causing others to
discharge while charging.
balance: Engineering SMES start at max charge to combat the increased
energy loss due to conservation of energy fixes.

## About The Pull Request
1. **Qol Stuff**
- Screentips & examines for screwdriver, crowbar acts, multiool &
wirecutter Also for Alt click
- Techfabs can now also use the Mouse drag functionality to set drop
target for items
- Lathe printing animation now plays on loop instead of just flicking
once till printing is finished for more visual feedback
2. **Code Improvements**
- Merged `start_making()` with `do_make_item()`. That proc was like only
3 lines long and used only in 1 place so let's just move that code to
`ui_act()`
- Merged `user_print_item_id()` with `ui_act()`. Again was used only in
1 place so let's just move that code in to save some proc overhead
- Sets `processing_flags` for autolathe to `NONE` cause we don't use
`process()`
- Autodocs vars such as `hacked` , `shocked` etc & procs
- `maxmult` is now computed client side saving backend bandwidth,
`construction_time` is removed from lathes which did not use it
- Removed all usages of lathe taxes and their related vars, removed
engineering lathe no tax from ice moon, replaced with normal engineering
lathe
3. **Fixes**
- Lathe sheet insertion animations are now linked & work again for all
material types inserted via remote silo/local storage,
silver/titanium/plastic all play the same animation(that is
`protolathe_shiny` overlay). Other materials have their own respective
overlays
- Fixes#81243. Calling `update_static_data_for_all_viewers()` is too
expensive for the UI. We should instead use `SStgui.update_uis(src)`
which will report the `busy` status to the UI more immediatly
- Fixes#81236. Some problems with the params passed to the timer
callback. It should now print the correct number of requested items
- Fixes#81192. `design.materials` would runtime for custom material
items as they were list of texts not materials. We have to pass our
manually parsed list of materials for an specific item to ensure they
are set & used correctly. Same fixes apply for techfabs as well

## About The Pull Request
Recently, I've been trying to unlock the ayy node, but couldn't even
after disassembling an alien tool. Looked into the variables viewer and
saw the node id wasn't set in the `available_nodes` list. It seems there
was no update after it being unhidden.

## About The Pull Request
I made this to help me move more towards my goals [laid out
here](https://hackmd.io/XLt5MoRvRxuhFbwtk4VAUA) which currently doesn't
have much interest.
This makes the Destructive Analyzer use a little neat TGUI menu instead
of its old HTML one. I also touch a lot of science stuff and a little
experimentor stuff, so let me explain a bit:
Old iterations of Science had different items that you can use to boost
nodes through deconstruction. This has been removed, and its only
feature is the auto-unlocking of nodes (that is; making them visible to
the R&D console). I thought that instead of keeping this deprecated code
around, I would rework it a little to make it clear what we actually use
it for (unhiding nodes).
All vars and procs that mentioned this have been renamed or reworked to
make more sense now.
Experimentor stuff shares a lot with the destructive analyzer, so I had
to mess with that a bit to keep its decayed corpse of deprecated code,
functional.
I also added context tips to the destructive analyzer, and added the
ability to AltClick to remove the inserted item. Removing items now also
plays a little sound because it was kinda lame.
Also, balloon alerts.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Moves a shitty machine to TGUI so it is slightly less shitty, now it's
more direct and compact with more player-feedback.
Helps me with a personal project and yea
### Video demonstration
I show off connecting the machine to R&D Servers, but I haven't changed
the behavior of that and the roundstart analyzers are connected to
servers by default.

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.

How do I play/test/operate this?
Download NT Frontier on any modular computers. It should debrief you on what experiments are available and how to publish.
If you want to do a bomb experiment, make sure it's captured by the doppler array (as usual) and then print the experiments into a disk and publish it.
If you want to do a gas experiment, make the gas and either pump it into a tank and 1) overpressurize it with a "clear" gas like N2 or 2) overpressurize tanks with the gas itself. Make sure you do the overpressurizing in the compressor machine. When tanks are destroyed/ejected leaked gas will get recorded. Print it into a disk and publish it.
For publication, the file needs to be directly present inside the computer's HDD. This means you need to copy it first with the file manager.
Fill the data (if desired, it will autofill with boiler plate if you dont) and send away!
Doing experiments unlock nodes, while doing them well unlocks boosts (which are discounts but slightly more restrictive) which are purchaseable with NT Frontier.
If you are testing this and have access to admin tools, there are various premade bombs under obj/effect/spawner/newbomb

# Intro
## The Problem(s)
Ordnance, (previously toxins) seems to lack a lot of content and things to do. The gameplay loop consists of making a bomb and then sending it off for credits or using it to refine cores. Ordnance at it's inception originally relies on players experimenting and finding the perfect mix over multiple rounds, but once the recipe for a "do-everything" mix got out, the original charm of individual discoveries becomes meaningless.
Another issue with ordnance is the odd difficulty curve. As a new player, ordnance is almost impossible to decipher, but once you watch a tutorial or read a wiki and can mail a 50k into space, there pretty much isn't anything else to do. Most players will be satisfied at this point without the gameplay loop encouraging them to understand or play more. The only thing you can do afterwards is to sink your teeth in and understand why that particular mix explodes the way it does. This again has a significant difficulty curve, but if you do that, the department doesn't acknowledge or reward that in any way. There are pretty much two huge spikes, with the latter one not really existing inside the department.
TLDR:
* The content being same-y over rounds.
* Odd difficulty curve:
1. A new player is oblivious to everything.
2. Those in the middle can repeat the final goal consistently without needing to understanding why
3. There is nothing to justify spending more time in the department after reaching the midgame.
## Abstract
Scientific Papers aim to add a framework to run multiple experiments in ordnance. Adding more experiments scattered across various atmospheric aspects might allow players of various knowledge levels to still have something engaging to do. A new player should have an easier challange than to mail a 50K. While those that already can make bombs should have an easier time understanding why their bombs explode the way it does. Once they fully understand why, they can set their sights on taking advantage of another reaction to set their bomb off or hone one particular reaction down.
## Goals
* Have some intro-level challanges for new players.
* Have some semblance of late-game challanges for more experienced players.
* Explain the mechanics better for those in the middle of the road.
* Incentivize trying new things out in the department.
* Better integrate Ordnance with Experisci
## Boundaries / Dont's
* Do not incentivize people to learn ordnance by using PvP loots.
* Do not shake or change the reaction system by a huge amount.
* Disincentivize having a single god-mix that does everything.
****
# Main design pillars
## A. Framework surrounding the experiments
### A.1. New experiments
Add new experiments to the ExperiSci module. These will come in two flavours: New explosions to do, and various gas synthesis experiments. Both of these are actually supported by the map layout of ordnance right now, but there is no reason to do anything outside of making a 50k as fast as possible.
### A.2. Rewards for experiments: Cash and Techweb Boosts.
Scientific papers will add a separate experiment handling system. A single experiment will be graded into various tiers, each tier corresponding to the explosion size or amount of gas made. Doing any tier of a specific experiment will unlock the discount for that specific reactions. A single explosion **WILL NOT** do multiple experiments (or even tiers) at once.
On publication, a partner can be selected. A single partner only has a specific criteria of experiments they want. The experiments will then be graded on "how good they are done", with the criteria being more punishing as tier increases. Publication will then reward scientific cooperation with the partnered partner. Players can spend this cooperation on techweb boosts. Techweb boosts are meant to be subservient to discount from experiments and will not shave a node's price to be lower than 500 points.
**Experiments will only unlock nodes, discounts are handled through this boost system.**
This is more for maintainability than anything.
### A.3. On Tedium
*This is a note on implementation more than anything, but I think this helps explains why several things are done.*
Due to the nature of atmospheric reactions in the game (they're all linear), tedium is a very important thing to consider. An experiment should have a sweet spot to aim for, but there should not be a point where further mastery is stopped dead on it's track with a reward cap.
Scientific Papers attempts to discourage this behaviour by having the "maximum score" scale off to infinity but with the rewards being smaller and smaller. The sweet spot is always there to aim for and should be well communicated with players, but on their last submission of an experiment topic players should be encouraged to do their best. There should always be a reward for pushing the system to it's limit as long as it doesn't completely nullify the other subdepartments. This is the reason why there is a hard limit on the number of publications and why the score calculation is a bit more complex than it needed to be.
## B. Gas Synthesis (Early-Mid Game)
Scientific papers will add one new machine that requests a tank to release x amounts of y gas. This will be accomplished by adding a tank pumping machine which will either burst or explode a tank, releasing the gas inside. The gas currently requested are BZ, Nitryl, Halon and Nob.
The overarching goal of this compressor machine is to present a gas synthesis challange for the players and to get them more accustomed to how a tank explodes. The gas synthesis part can always be changed in order to reflect the current state of atmospheric reactions.
## C. Explosion Changes (Mid-Late Game)
### C.1 Cause and effect.
The main theme of the explosion changes is establishing cause and effect of explosions. Reactions that happens inside a tank that's going to explode will be recorded and forwarded to a doppler array. Some experiments will require only a single cause to be present (think of it as isolating a variable). This is currently implemented for nobliumformation and pressure based bombs. Having other reactions occuring besides noblium formation will fail the first one, while having any reactions at all will fail the second one.
Adding more explosions here will be a slight challange because as of now the game has only two reactions that can reliably make an explosion.
### C.2 Tools upgrade.
Doppler array has now been retrofitted to state the probable cause of an explosion, be it reactions or just overpressurization on gas merging. These should help intermediate players figure out what is causing an explosion.
Added a new functionality to the implosion compressor:
Basically performs the gas merging and reaction that TTV does in a machine and reports the results back as if someone uses an analyzer on them. Here to give players feedback so they can try and understand what is actually going on in a bomb.
## D. Player Interaction
There should be more room for more than 1 player to play ordnance simultaneously. Previously players are also able to split tasks, but this rarely happens because tritium synthesis needs only the gas chamber to be reconfigured. Now, different players can pick different experiments and work on them. Players can also do joint tasks on one single experiment. Gases like noblium will need tritium production and also a cooling module online.
Ordnance can also coordinate with their parent department on what they really need, be it money or research bonuses.
# Potential Changes
The best-case changes that can be implemented if the current roster of content isn't enough is more reactions that can be used in bombs. Eliminating bombs entirely goes against the spirit of the subdepartment, while adding new ones will need a lot of care and consideration.
Another possible change is to implement a "gas payload" bomb. Bombs that has a set number of unreacting gas inside that will increase the heat capacity, reduce the payload, and neccesitates more bespoke mixes.
Adding more gas synthesis experiments is discouraged. The main focus of ordnance should be bombs, with gas synthesis being a side project for ordnance. These are present to ease the introduction to bombs and provide some side content.
There should be a somewhat well-justified goal in adding new synthesis experiments: e.g. BZ is there as a "tutorial" gas, Nitryl to introduce players to cooling/heating mixes, Halon to a more efficient tritium production, and Nob as a nudge to nobformation bombs and mastery over other aspects.
# Conclusion / Summary
Add more experiments to ordnance that players can take, accomplish this by:
1. Making the players perform gas synthesis or make bombs.
2. Have them collect the data, see if it fits the criteria. Explain why if it fits and why if it doesn't.
3. Have the player publish a paper.
Reward them based on how well did they do, give players agency both on the experiment phase and also publication phase.
---
TLDR: Added new experiment to toxins, added the framework for those experiments existing. Experiments comes in gas synthesis and also bombs but with more parameters. Experiments needs to be published through papers, various choices to be made there.
Implementation notes:
Because of how paper works, ordnance experiments are handled outside of experiment_handler components. My reasoning for this is twofold:
The experiments will be completed manually on publication and if the experiment isn't unlocked yet it will still be completed.
Experiment handler datums have several procs which require an atom-level parent, and I figured this is the most sensible and cleanest way to implement this without changing the experiment handler datum too much.
Small change to /obj/machinery/proc/power_change() signal ordering to adjust the state first and then send the signal. Didn't found any other usage of this signal except mine but barge down my door if it broke something.
Rewrote the ttv merge_gases() code to be slightly more readable.
A small code improvement for thermomachine to use tofixed (my fault).
Ordnance have been updated to enable the publication of papers
Several new explosive and gas synthesis experiments have been added to ordnance
Anomaly compressor has been TGUIzed and now supports simulating the reaction of the gases inside the ttv.
New tank compressor machine for toxins. You can overpressurize tanks with exotic gases and complete experiments.
Several techweb nodes are locked and require toxin experiments to complete.
Toxins can purchase boosts for various techweb nodes.
You no longer need to anchor doppler arrays for it to work.
Doppler array and implosion compressor now supports deconstruction, implosion compressor construction added.
Doppler now emits a red light to denote it's direction and it being on. Doppler not malf.
Implosion compressor renamed to anomaly refinery.
Created a new program tab "Science" for the downloader app. Removed Robotics.
Reworked the code for bombspawner (used in the cuban pete arcade game)

Converts most spans into span procs. Mostly used regex for this and sorted out any compile time errors afterwards so there could be some bugs.
Was initially going to do defines, but ninja said to make it into a proc, and if there's any overhead, they can easily be changed to defines.
Makes it easier to control the formatting and prevents typos when creating spans as it'll runtime if you misspell instead of silently failing.
Reduces the code you need to write when writing spans, as you don't need to close the span as that's automatically handled by the proc.
(Note from Lemon: This should be converted to defines once we update the minimum version to 514. Didn't do it now because byond pain and such)
Creates update_name and update_desc
Creates the wrapper proc update_appearance to batch update_name, update_desc, and update_icon together
Less non-icon handling code in update_icon and friends
Signal hooks for things that want to change names and descriptions
99%+ of the changes in this are just from switching everything over to update_appearance from update_icon
Done using this command sed -Ei 's/(\s*\S+)\s*\t+/\1 /g' code/**/*.dm
We have countless examples in the codebase with this style gone wrong, and defines and such being on hideously different levels of indentation. Fixing this to keep the alignment involves tainting the blames of code your PR doesn't need to be touching at all. And ultimately, it's hideous.
There are some files that this sed makes uglier. I can fix these when they are pointed out, but I believe this is ultimately for the greater good of readability. I'm more concerned with if any strings relied on this.

About The Pull Request
This PR removes intents and replaces them with a combat mode. An explanation of what this means can be found below
Major changes:
Disarm and Grab intents have been removed.
Harm/Help is now combat mode, toggled by F or 4 by default
The context/verb/popup menu now only works when you do shift+right-click
Right click is now disarm, both in and out of combat mode.
Grabbing is now on ctrl-click.
If you're in combat mode, and are currently grabbing/pulling someone, and ctrl-click somewhere else, it will not release the grab (To prevent misclicks)
Minor interaction changes:
Right click to dissasemble tables, racks, filing cabinets (When holding the right tool to do so)
Left click to stunbaton, right click to harmbaton
Right click to tip cows
Right click to malpractice surgery
Right click to hold people at gunpoint (if youre holding a gun)
Why It's Good For The Game
Intents heavily cripple both the code and the UI design of interactions. While I understand that a lot of people will dislike this PR as they are used to intents, they are one of our weakest links in terms of explaining to players how to do specific things, and require a lot more keypresses to do compared to this.
As an example, martial arts can now be done without having to juggle 1 2 3 and 4 to switch intents quickly.
As some of you who saw the first combat mode PR, the context menu used to be disabled in combat mode. In this version it is instead on shift-right click ensuring that you can always use it in the same way.
In this version, combat mode also no longer prevents you from attacking with items when you would so before, as this was something that was commonly complained about.
The full intention of this shift in control scheme is that right click will become "secondary interaction" for items, which prevents some of the awkward juggling we have now with item modes etcetera.

Removes various R&D machine requirements including circuit imprinters, protolathes, destructive analyzer and the mechfabs. All machines that previously required an R&D console to function are standalone, including omni protolathes and omni imprinters.
Replaces "production"-class R&D consoles with civilian modular computers on all maps. There are no longer "production"-class consoles.
Removes the concept of "core" R&D consoles. R&D consoles only research and handle tech disks and stuff. All existing core consoles have been switched to their basic archetype.
Because it's a pain in the ass to manage, material reclaimation has been removed from the destructive analyzer. The destructive analyzer is now ONLY for destroying items and unlocking research nodes such as illegal and alien tech.
removes materials list from items, uses custom_materials instead. This might introduce some bugs so we should testmerge this for a while (and Ill test stuff locally as much as I can)
this also adds material crafting to sheets. Test case being chairs. In the future we can add stuff like tables, walls, doors etc.
also applies materials to everything, with fixes, which can close#46299
Yeah yeah I know no opening too many WIP PRs but this one's [ready] and I want to make sure any furthur techweb development doesn't keep using the old reference system which will make refactoring it harder, and this makes it easier for coders to do stuff in theory (at least for me), standardizes getting a node/design, and makes stuff actually GC properly.
add: The vault now contains an ore silo where the station's minerals are stored.
add: The station's ORM, recycling, and the labor camp send materials to the silo via bluespace.
add: Protolathes, techfabs, and circuit imprinters all pull materials from the silo via bluespace.
add: Those with vault access can view mineral logs and pause or remove any machine's access, or add machines with a multitool.
tweak: The ORM's alloy recipes are now available in engineering and science protolathes.
Also changes New -> Initialize in most of them.
renamed: `code/game/machinery/computer/computer.dm` -> `code/game/machinery/computer/_computer.dm`
renamed: `code/game/machinery/machinery.dm` -> `code/game/machinery/_machinery.dm`
Moved all circuitboards to a new folder at `code/game/objects/items/weapons/circuitboards`
