## About The Pull Request
* When gibbing mobs, spawned gib type is now based on mob's biotypes if
they're not a carbon, or their chest (or first) bodypart if they are,
rather than requiring a proc override for every single mob. This means
that a few robotic mobs no longer drop meaty gibs, and that gibbing
androids now produces cyborg gibs instead of a meaty surprise, plus they
should no longer runtime when trying to gib a robot. Gibs also are now
spawned around the gibber and streak outwards instead of magically
teleporting a few tiles away, for some visual flair.
* Fixed meat not overriding blood DNA on blood_walk component which made
xeno and lizard meat leave behind orange trails instead of proper
lime/dark green blood colors (due to them keeping human meat DNA).
* Brightened up the gibber blood overlay I've missed, so it should be
consistent with old blood colors now.
* Also cleaned up the gibspawner code.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Biotype/chest changes should make devs lives easier and gameplay a bit
more consistent, and streaking just makes the process look slightly
better.

## About The Pull Request
Adds bloodroaches.
These are cockroaches that have gorged themselves on blood in
maintenance. They're very gross!
Splatting one causes an explosion of blood all around the death
perimeter, splashing both turfs and mobs with blood.
They have a 1% chance of spawning in place of normal roaches.
They also spawn in:
- Abandoned crates, replacing the 30 roaches with 30 bloodroaches.
- As backup anomalous crystal possession targets.
- Grimy fridges
Added a trait given to things killed by pest spray, used to check on
death explosion for bloodroaches.
Changed roach spawns in maps to use mob spawners, so I can replace them
with bloodroaches 1% of the time.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Splatting a random roach in maintenance that explodes into blood sounds
hilarious. It also adds janitorial depth by requiring pest spray to
carefully eliminate these pests
## Changelog
🆑
add: Added bloodroaches, a rare variant of cockroaches that explode into
a shower of blood when squashed.

## About The Pull Request
Since #90505 added another entry to it the Regal Rat Riot ability, which
turns maintenance creatures into versions loyal to the rat, has become
sort of unmanageable (and to be honest it was a bit gross to start
with).
Instead of having a big if/else list (which was making the same range
check multiple times...) that sets stats on a bunch of mobs, I delegated
it to the mobs themselves and instead of changing some stats of the
existing mobs we just turn them into a new mob which can be spawned or
placed separately by mappers or admins if they want.
Other stuff I changed:
Riot (the ability which transforms mobs into minions) no longer spawns a
mouse if it fails to find anything. Instead you have a chance to fish
mice out of disposals bins while digging out trash and items.
Domain is now a toggle which activates itself every 6 seconds rather
than a button you manually click every 6 seconds.
Riot makes a visual effect when used.
Rare Pepe randomisation is done via a random spawner instead of the mob
modifying a bunch of its own properties in Initialise.
A bunch of mobs now automatically follow you after being tamed. I wrote
this assuming I was going to add it to the rioted mobs but then didn't
end up doing that because you might want them to immediately attack
someone.
My rule of thumb is that if I think you'd want the mob to attack someone
the moment it is befriended I didn't add this and if you wouldn't I did.
I changed some of the regal rat minion names, and some of them can now
spawn from gold slime which couldn't before.
## Why It's Good For The Game
This proc sucked and now it's nicer.
As for the other changes;
- A tamed mob immediately following you is nice feedback and saves you a
click as it's likely to be your first action. Also removes some admin
panel shitcode I added.
- I changed Domain to a toggle because you generally want to use it on
cooldown and someone suggested it on this PR and it sounded like a good
idea.
- I saw someone in Discord complaining that the previous flow of
recruiting rats by hitting Riot with nothing around to summon one,
waiting, hitting it again to convert one rat, and waiting again was
tedious and annoying which I agree with.
This method improves the quality of life by separating these two actions
but _also_ as a side effect reduces a regal rat's ability to secretly
stockpile 50 rats in a hidden maintenance room because most disposal
bins are in slightly more visible areas, they'll actually need to go and
make a mess somewhere someone can see them.
