## About The Pull Request
This PR is basically an hos outfit cleanup:
- It fixes the viro sec helmet and the hos sec helmet from not being
able to carry a flashlight, it also put the hos helmet to the same armor
level as all other head garbs
- It removes all of the duplicates from the hos outfit bag
- It fixes stray pixels from the viro hos uniform
- It fixes a missing icon from the softshell coat
- It removes one of the viro hos trenchcoat which I couldn't find the
worn icon anywhere (currently invisible ingame)
- Re-add the hos plate carrier that was forgotten in the code and the
security viro helmet in the sec vendor
- Migrates all of the hos custom garment from the TG code into the
Bubber module
## Why It's Good For The Game
The hos outfit bag had 9 duplicated items
Before:

/>
The removed coat was identical to another one that is working, but had a
red pixel on one of the arm. I'll eventually try to find the missing
icon
Everything that was there is still there
The plate carrier is cool and awesome and is my prized jewel that I
didn't create myself
Bugs bad
## Proof Of Testing
The plate, the helmet with flashlight, the uniform with no more stray
pixel floating

## About The Pull Request
Adds beef space ramen packets as an uncommon maintenance spawn. These
are small boxes that contain a brick of dehydrated space ramen and a
beef flavour sachet (these are all they can hold). These items can be
used on the soup range to create beef ramen.
## Why It's Good For The Game
The existing option for ramen leaves something to be desired. You just
add water and it magically heats itself. The ramen is treated as a
reagent rather than an object like other noodles.

This PR ports the TGMC Tacmaps and grants em to our NukeOps.
Code by Me, @Xander3359, @Arturlang, @Absolucy.
Mapping by @RipGrayson
Sprites by @KillerOrcaCora

As you can see from the screenshots above, departments are classified by
color, hovering your cursor over an area or a team mate, will display
their name, the system does allow the user to switch between Multi-Z,
and lastly you can draw and add labels to the map, although the last
option is only available to the NukeOps Leader and OW agents.
The functionality is tied to the Syndicate implants nukies start with,
Cayenne, Syndie borgs and Mechs also have the ability to toggle the map.
Likewise, the tacmaps will display the positioning of the following in
real time!
- Nuke ops agents
- Syndie borgs and Mechs
- Cayenne
- Location of the nuclear fission device (and beer nuke)
- Location of the Nuclear Authentication Disk.

Interact with the "Reconnaisance Platform" (Sprite by Orcacora) in the
briefing room, which has seen some mapping changes (Brought to you by

## Why It's Good For The Game
Originally this feature was planned for the Upcoming Contractor Rework
our team is currently working on, but given the massive size of it all,
we decided to atomize it.
But without that consideration in mind, I think it makes sense for
Nuclear operatives of all antagonists to have the means to Recon and
plot an assault plan onto the station and actually be able to know the
whereabouts of their teammates.
Obviously this feature has a lot of other potential applications, we
have wanted to have functional Maps for a very long time, if someone
wants to give it a go once the feature is merged, by all means.
<!-- Argue for the merits of your changes and how they benefit the game,

## About The Pull Request
My antagonists are many. My equals are none. In the shade of tendrils,
they said Lavaland could never be conquered. In the land of wizards and
operatives, they said Space could never be humbled. In the realm of
wolves and snow, they said Icebox could never be tamed. Now they say
nothing. They fear me; like a force of nature, a dealer in thunder and
death. I say, “I am the Captain.” I am emperor.

## About The Pull Request
Adds a new chemical: Carnivorous Blood. This chemical is acquirable via
traitor uplinks, at the cost of 3 telecrystals for a 30 unit bottle.
This chemical's purpose is to eat blood. When it enters its victim's
bloodstream, it begins consuming their blood at a base rate of 2 units
per second, consuming itself at a rate of 0.3 units per second. This
means that a dose of 15 units of it will consume roughly 14% of its
victim's bloodstream over the course of roughly a minute. That isn't
anything to call home over, obviously. This is because you are supposed
to pair it first.
To pair it, you acquire a blood sample from your chosen victim, in any
form that retains their intact DNA. You mix this with the carnivorous
blood, and the blood is now three times as effective inside that
specific person(or anyone sharing their DNA). The paired version,
assuming a dose of a full 15 units that is allowed to fully metabolize,
will take the paired victim's blood down to roughly 55% over the course
of roughly a minute(assuming nothing is impairing or improving the
person's natural blood regeneration). This is just slightly less than is
required to knock out a victim from just blood loss, but is certainly
enough to significantly impair them.
(Up to three sets of DNA can be paired with a single set of carnivorous
blood. It cannot be de-paired in any useful way.)
Additionally, the chemical is twice as effective in the dead, allowing
one fifteen unit dose to fully drain a paired person of their blood.
The chemical can be duplicated using protein.
As a necessity in order to let the thing be used how I want it to be
used, this also makes it so that blood taken off the ground out of
bloodstains has DNA(unique enzymes) in with it. As it'd be absurd to
track how much of each specific DNA was in each specific bloodstain for
just this purpose, and because blood(the reagent) can only have one set
of DNA within it, it's been made such that the DNA you get from blood
taken from bloodstains is a random pick of the DNA present within the
bloodstain. If you don't get pure blood, you might not get what you
want.
## Why It's Good For The Game
A reasonably powerful traitor item that requires not just preparation on
your part, but INVOLVED preparation. The chemical itself is fairly
cheap(and could probably be cheaper but I'm being safe), but to get your
benefit you have to actually involve yourself with your target. Hurt
them a little bit, telegraphing yourself, or lurk around them until a
carp bites them and they leave their blood on the floor. Get them in a
rage cage, run a blood drive, whatever. There's a lot of ways to get
someone's blood, but all of them require active involvement, and I think
that that, on its own, will lead to interesting situations.
Also, side benefit that isn't really material but is worth mentioning
anyway, finding a body with no blood is currently absolute 100% no holds
barred completely airtight proof of bloodworms unless some psychopath
manually took a million years to slowly drain their blood manually. As
one dose completely drains a dead person, this provides an alternate
theory and reasonable means of faking.
Balance-wise, I say this every feature PR I make, but I don't think this
will be a problem. The chemical basically necessitates putting yourself
at risk in order to set it up, and is not a one-hit-kill. That is more
than can be said for several other crew-obtainable chemicals, BUT the
benefit of this chemical is that it takes a very long time to recover
from naturally. If someone succeeds the lexorin knowledge check and
survives, the oxygen damage goes away in a flash. Losing half your blood
takes an extremely long time to recover from naturally(and specific
items to recover from quickly), and leaves you quite vulnerable in the
meantime.
## Changelog
🆑
add: Added a new traitor item, Carnivorous Blood. It is purchasable in
uplinks. Carnivorous Blood is a reagent that eats away at a victim's
blood once in their bloodstream, doing so significantly faster if it has
been mixed with the victim's blood beforehand.

## About The Pull Request
This PR adds 16 more wands to the game, try and guess what they all do!
I finished coding this PR 6 weeks ago but it turns out I had to sprite
16 wands after that before I could PR it.
<details>
**Wand of Animation**- It's like the Staff of Animation but doesn't
recharge itself, obviously.
**Rod of Babel**- Grants victims a new random spoken language and then
removes all of their other languages.
**Shearing Rod**- It renders you bald. If you are covering your hair
with a helmet, it pops the helmet off (possibly its most useful effect).
If you're already bald, your bald head will shine brightly and blind
nearby people.
**Party Wand**- Fires projectiles that are incredibly alcoholic. Two of
them will destroy the livers of most targets and kill them (although it
gives them a good leadup time to get that fixed before dying of alcohol
toxicity), so try one at a time if you're just there to have fun.
**Wand of Ice**- Freezes people temporarily, making them really cold and
unable to move. It also spawns slippery ice on impacted tiles.
**Wand of Chaos**- Forces targets to hallucinate from a curated list of
hallucinations. It looks and is named sort of like the Staff of Chaos
just in the hopes that people are more likely to believe that the wizard
did actually just instantly kill them, set them on fire, or turn them
into a demon. Even if it doesn't, a lot of these cause you to stop
moving or be temporarily knocked down or in some other way disoriented.
**Lifting Rod**- Removes gravity from a target for two minutes, which
funcionally immobilises them if they're in the middle of a room or you
can use on yourself to cross big pits.
**Rod of Compassion**- Heals you and your target a little bit, and also
gives you both Pacifism for 30 seconds. This gives you time to talk out
your problems, or deliver a monologue.
**Wand of Snacking**- Turns things into pizza. If fired at a mob, will
put some pizza in their hands and force them to start eating it.
Unlikely to be deadly, but it might spawn mouldy pizza, a food they are
allergic to, ethereal battery acid pizza, or pizza which dismembers you.
**Pestilent Wand**- Confers a transmissible plague which causes you to
periodically cough out vermin of various degrees of danger and hostility
depending on disease level, treated via traditional methods of exorcism.
**Wand of Pratfalls**- Slips and pies the target as well as creating
small amounts of lube foam.
**Wand of Rebellion**- Removes a limb from the target, then animates
that limb. Stop hitting yourself.
**Rod of Repulsion**- Throws things you shoot away from you.
**Switching Rod**- Swap places with the hit atom, as with the spell
Swap.
**Restraining Rod**- Summons a tentacle from the ground to grasp the
target, immobilising them for 20 seconds or until someone helps them.
**Wand of Zapping**- Briefly locks up the target's nerves with lightning
(it's secretly a classic ss13 taser).
</details>
They are available to wizards via the new option "Wand Assortment
(Bargain Bin)" which only costs a single spellbook point, but gives you
an assortment of 6 wands picked at random from this list of new wands
and some of the existing ones.
If you buy two or more sets of wands (and are wearing the wand belt from
the first one) then instead of spawning wands in a belt it will spawn
them in a bandolier, which fits into your backpack or can be worn on a
suit slot.
Wand bandoliers in a suit slot will automatically replace an empty wand
you try to fire with a wand that still has ammo in it.
Several of these wands' projectiles are now also possibilities from
firing the Staff of Chaos (making it more chaotic) and some of them also
have their own Magicarp types.
Also I made it so that if you animate an animating weapon then it
focuses on animating more things instead of shooting its animating bolts
at mobs that are already animate. I could do this for more specialty
wands too at some point (door wand projectiles don't exactly hurt
anyone) but if I do that it'll probably be in a different PR.
## Why It's Good For The Game
A good number of these wands come from a downstream antagonist that's
essentially a lower-threat wizard. I thought these were all fun or funny
effects to have in the game upstream but also not ones that people would
typically want to buy as a dedicated spell (or alternately, that would
be pretty good as a dedicated spell but quite boring), so instead
they're limited use spells that you get in bulk for cheap.
I didn't think we'd really want to bulk up the spellbook with several
different kinds of themed bundle though (and frankly, they don't share
themes), so it's a blind box instead.
The bandolier was added to compensate people for buying random wands
multiple times, so they can have more of a wand-based playstyle.
Now you can spend all of your points on 60 wands (maybe more if you take
the gambling trait...) and be a sort of wizard cowboy, or split them
among your apprentices, or just leave them everywhere like candy and see
whether the crew fuck things up for themselves with their new power I
guess.
## Changelog
🆑
add: Adds 16 more wizard wands to the game, which wizards can buy
cheaply but randomly, or are available via Summon Magic.
add: If a wizard buys more than one set of wands they will receive a
"Wand Bandolier" holster which fits in the backpack or, if worn in the
suit slot, will automatically exchange an expended wand for a full one.
balance: Staffs (and wands) of animation that are animated will try to
animate other objects instead of firing at living mobs, which are
already animated.
balance: Animating a wand of nothing will turn it into a wand of
animation (and animate it).
balance: The staff of chaos can now do more things.
balance: Magicarp now additionally come in Babbling, Frigid, Quantum,
and Weightless varieties. Collect them all!

## About The Pull Request
Lawyers, Quartermasters, and Heads of Personnels can now purchase a
`"Briefcase Embedded Firearm Trigger"` from the traitor uplink for 4 tc.
The briefcase looks like a normal, unassuming briefcase - But when any
weapon is placed inside, you gain the ability to "fire" the briefcase,
which *actually* fires the weapon.
Only the first weapon found is fired, even if it's empty.
So while you CAN put 5 pistols inside, you'd have to cycle them in and
out manually.
This works with *any* weapon that can fit inside the briefcase, which
essentially restricts it to pistols and some laser weapons.
*No*, sniper rifles won't work in the briefcase. (You can't use it to
bypass weapons that require two hands.)
*Yes*, you can also handcuff the briefcase to your wrist as normal. (Who
knows what this will allow.)
---
Also purchaseable is an 8tc `"Briefcase Embedded Firearm (Combo Deal)"`,
which comes pre-loaded with a Makarov and 0 magazines.
This variant is also available to all Spies as a medium difficulty
reward.
---
Additionally I changed the boot-dagger's examine tell to only show to
people holding the item.
When I was implementing the briefcase gun I made the examine tell only
show while held and I thought "well, the boot-dagger should follow the
same logic". They're meant to be stealth objects so being able to figure
it out from across the room feels weird.
## Why It's Good For The Game
This was a random idea someone threw out that I thought fit the vibe and
gameplay of traitors and spies really well.
It's a very espionage-y idea, very James Bond.
It will definitely catch a lot of people off guard. It basically allows
the Lawyer to walk around with a pistol or revolver drawn at all times.
I'm a bit worried it'll be too potent combined with handcuffs (nodrop
revolver?), but the Lawyer doesn't get many Ws so maybe it's fine.
## Changelog
🆑 Melbert
add: Traitor Lawyers, Quartermasters, and Heads of Personnels can now
purchase a "Briefcase Embedded Firearm Trigger" from the uplink for 4tc
- a briefcase that allows any weapon stored within to be fired by
"firing" the briefcase itself. Weapon sizes are restricted to whatever
fits in a briefcase, meaning it practically only works with pistols and
some laser weapons. It has a subtle examine tell that only appears while
being held.
add: Also available for 8tc is a combo deal that comes pre-loaded with a
Makarov. This can also appear as a medium Spy reward.
balance: The Spy item "boot dagger"'s examine tell now only appears if
you're examining them WHILE holding them.

## About The Pull Request
This PR tweaks how supply_packs' `generate` and `fill` procs function,
so that they do not default to needing to be spawned with a crate
specifically in order to properly spawn.
What this allows is for the random supply drop event to be able to spawn
in with a non-crate container, such as an empty briefcase.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Ran into the random runtime while I was testing something non-cargo
related, and was considering having a non-crate supply crate for #95393,
but decided against it. Took this as a sign that I should implement it
anyway.
Plus, this will add even more variety to the random supply drop event's
results.

## About The Pull Request
Following an extensive conversation in maintainerbus that was about a
lot of things, this PR was used as an example of something that probably
shouldn't have been merged in the first place, in the context of a
larger point about the relative merge chance of a change versus a revert
to that change. (This is intentionally vague because I'm not even going
to attempt to summarize the conversation it was long and you should
probably just read it) From the way it was talked about there was vague
support from other maints that it should be reverted, so I'm making this
because I didn't agree with it being merged either and I want to re-open
the floor.
## Why It's Good For The Game
There was a LOT of discussion about this both on GitHub and in the
discord, but I'm going to focus on addressing the why it's good for the
game given in the original PR and in the comment made by cobby (the
maint who merged it).
>It encourages heads to play their subdepartment’s roles instead of
their own, which is to manage their department, delegate tasks, and
teach newer players.
Heads *do* play their department's role, that is very much an aspect of
being a head of staff. The majority of them get unique items designed
specifically to make the duties of their department easier, and I don't
think there's anything wrong with that! I'm not sure where this
perspective of it as a zero-sum game where they can either delegate and
manage the department or they can solo the department to the detriment
of their subordinates came from, but any competent head can do both!
>It encourages bad command players to take the role for the gear instead
of leaving it for the people who want it for the command.
This is basically a continuation of the first point but with the framing
that people who consider the gear a reason to play the job are Bad
Players and are taking the role away from someone better who would play
it Properly. Again, many heads can and do balance both aspects of the
job, and I'm not sure why this framing was considered reasonable. Heads
tend to be experienced in all aspects of the department they're a head
of, and being able to step in when needed and get shit done because you
have both the experience and better tools sells the fiction of you being
the head honcho, someone that can be relied on and was put in charge for
a reason.
With this in mind, I'm aware that these points were made with the
unspoken assumption that the hypothetical player being described is bad
because they're violating Rule 5: "Players in vital job roles require a
minimum amount of effort." My problem with that is, why is this being
solved with code? If a head of staff is failing to perform their duties
so grossly that it feels necessary to take away anything that might
tempt them to take the role, why are they not being dealt with
administratively? Why do the majority that can handle the job have to
take a downgrade because of it? Hell, Rule 5 even states "you should be
a reliable worker for your department", and then after that states that
"As an upside, being THE BOSS allows you to dictate the workflow of your
department as you like", which to me sounds like it is explicitly
expected that heads will both perform the duties of the department and
delegate/manage their subordinates as needed. So why was the former seen
as the wrong way to play the job?
>The heads should be about management of the department, and shouldnt
have gear incentives to forgo that aspect if it is needed in the round.
Giving them better tools FORCES them into job+ role or at best a loot
pinata because otherwise theyre not making full use of their roundstart
provided tools without it being awkward, and thats only if someone gets
in that isnt seeking the free tool upgrades to begin with.
Cobby's comment broadly supported the points made in the PR body, with a
few additions about how if a CE doesn't want to be "job+" then they're
in an uncomfortable position because they have this desirable gear
they're not going to make use of. This is a strange argument to me,
because as I just said in the last paragraph, *as a head of staff you
should be doing at least a little of the department's job*. There's room
for varied play-styles obviously, but if you consistently feel like
you're being forced into the position of doing Engineering as the Chief
Engineer such that having the upgraded tools feels like it's wasted on
you... Maybe you shouldn't be the Chief Engineer? I don't say that in a
rude way, I just don't know what the appeal of the job would be
otherwise, if you enjoy bureaucracy then the HoP is seen as the epitome
of that with little to no formal duties otherwise, I just don't see why
CE would appeal to someone who does so little Engineering they see the
tools as an uncomfortable burden they'd rather not have.
>Also dislike the idea that heads just get to skip part of the research,
they should want said research just as badly as the rest of the
department.
The last point that was made repeatedly was the idea that existence of
these tools cause a tech tree skip, and this is a bad thing because it
means the CE has no incentive to push for unlocking the Experimental
Tools node because they got theirs already. Setting aside that again,
this framing applies only to absolute worst-case players who probably
should be dealt with administratively, it doesn't even make sense if you
have experience playing Engineering. Experimental Tools gates RCD
upgrades, the node that gives you the silo link and the thing that lets
you spawn already wired machine frames and air alarm, APC, and fire
alarm circuits, even the most selfish, unfit, department soloer CE is
going to get Experimental Tools unlocked so they (and their co-workers)
can get RCD upgrades.
Overall it seems like a ton of the justification for this PR hinged on a
false dichotomy that heads can either delegate and manage or do the job
of their subordinates, and it just doesn't cohere.

most of their storage thing vs a gun, which allows players freedom when
it comes to setups, but also make them be able to use counterattack

## About The Pull Request
1. Adds stasis bodybags, unlocked with cryogenics tech
These bodybags are portable forms of stasis. However, they wear down
with use, only being able to keep someone in stasis for about 2, 3
minutes before falling apart.
Bodyparts and organs put in the bodybag are also frozen, allowing you to
maintain parts of gibbed people.
You can med scan through the walls of the stasis bag as well. Also you
can med scan through holographics bodybags.
2. Adds triage cards to the medical vendor
Triage cards are small pieces of paper you can write on and stick to
people. They're color coded according to severity, and are intended to
be used in mass casualty events for prioritizing patients.
3. You can pin paper to bodybags
You can pin a sheet of paper to bodybags that people can read, be it
autopsy or whatever.
4. Updates paper interaction code slightly
We have new procs for allowing interactions rather that snowflakes
5. Other forms of stasis apply tumor suppression
Oversight?
## Why It's Good For The Game
I made these a while back to just give medical doctors a few more tools
to play around with beyond the meta tools. Just to get more immersed
into the larp.
Otherwise, stasis bodybags gives Paramedics a tangible upgrade(if you
can call it that), offering a safer way to retrieve patients
## Changelog

## About The Pull Request
Fixes#94778
There are a bunch of places where we dismember a limb (or head) and then
do something with it assuming that we actually dismembered it, but that
isn't actually true.
Many of these places then move your not-actually-dismembered head
somewhere else. If you have an unremovable limb (such as if you have
TRAIT_NODISMEMBER) this means that it actually gets removed anyway
because it's physically moved somewhere else.
In all of these cases, if we failed to dismember the limb we should just
leave it alone.
I left anything where after dismembering the limb it immediately deletes
it in though because those are generally supposed to be invariably
fatal.
## Changelog
🆑
fix: Chainsaws can't behead people with unremovable heads.
fix: You can only put your own head on a spear or into a box if it is
possible to remove your head.
fix: Heretic rifts can only remove your arms if your arms can be
removed.
fix: Paperwork can only cut off your head if your head can be cut off.

## About The Pull Request
Updates subdermal implants so that they have `implant_info` and
`implant_lore` variables instead of one unchanging `get_info()`. Also
rewrites/updates/tweaks/etc. lore for every implant that had get_info()
blocks.
Makes beacon implants (the ones you teleport onto) turn off (hide
themselves on prisoner management consoles) after ten minutes, matching
the tracking implant's functionality.
Deathrattle implants are now `allow_multiple = TRUE`, so you can have
multiple deathrattles implanted.
Reworked the implant pad's UI to have collapsible sections for implant
info, implant lore, and also have buttons for configuring deathrattle
implants.
Adds a box of expeditionary deathrattle implants to the mining vendor.
For 900 points (585 points if delivered), you receive a box containing 5
expeditionary deathrattle implants, which **ONLY ALERT TO DEATHS IN
MINING WASTELAND AREAS (e.g. not ruins, not space, not station) (this is
important)**, an implanter, and an implant pad.
The intended workflow is that you initialize one deathrattle implant,
use that network for all the other deathrattles, and implant yourself,
your mining buddies, your QM, and a paramedic, maybe. However since they
start unset you could theoretically make one really big deathrattle
network. Good luck getting people to volunteer for implanting, though,
and as above, it only really works if you die outside of the station.
Also, repaths kheiral cuffs to be accessories, so you can attach them to
uniforms. They're still functional as suit sensor extenders and GPSes
(when off-station).

## Why It's Good For The Game
Deathrattle implants are cool. Being able to know that your coworker
exploded, after a non-negligible amount of setup and wrangling your
fellow spaceman to let you implant them, is probably a good thing.
Introduces a cooperative avenue of "Wait, my coworker just died" instead
of "Hey, they haven't yelled something on comms, did they roll antag?
(No. They died.)"
Kheiral cuffs being uniform attachments is because having to sacrifice
glove slot for them annoyed me a lot.
## Changelog
🆑
add: Nanotrasen has begun rolling out (unconfigured) expeditionary
deathrattle implant kits for their mining teams for 900 points (585
points, if manually delivered). These only alert for deaths on raw
mining wasteland, and will not work in space, ruins, or on-station.
balance: Kheiral cuffs can now be attached to uniforms as accessories.
They retain their suit sensor extension/GPS functionality (still only
when off station Z-levels, though).
fix: Beacon implants now turn off (hide themselves on prisoner
management consoles) after ten minutes, matching the tracking implant's
functionality.
qol: Made the implant pad UI a little nicer to look at, with dropdowns
and demarcated sections.
code: Implants now have separated "immediately useful" information and
"extended lore tidbits" information as variables instead of one
unchangeable get_info() block.

## About The Pull Request
`adjust_fishing_difficulty` is a good one to make into a bespoke element
since a number of the same clothing item are created in the wardrobe
system.
climb_walkable is also good due to how prevalent it is, and it is a bit
of a two for one since it also removes the need for the
`/component/connect_loc_behalf`
Also stops adding the on_climbable trait to literally everything in the
turf, it now only applies it to atoms with density. So no more pipes and
stuff getting trait lists created for no reason.

## About The Pull Request
Updates the safe tree to use a proper blacklist instead of being boring
and just giving bloodthirsty spacemen and women toys... They were good
all year, they crave violence. This replaces the round start Christmas
trees with the safe trees, which no longer only give out toys, but also
no longer give out admin/debug gear. A compromise for all, just in time
for Christmas!
The Christmas event present spawns have all been replaced with the safe
variants that utilize the blacklist, the other means of acquiring
presents have been left untouched.
