## About The Pull Request
The light step trait, the trait that makes your character step lightly,
makes you not squash micros. Knockdown still applies.
(Also uses the correct pronouns for the interaction now)
## Why It's Good For The Game
It makes sense that characters who have a really light step wouldn't
break a micro's bones. This time it's tied to a positive quirk. Imo this
offers both an intuitive way of opting out of the crush content and a
fun interaction with our already existing quirk. Knockdown STILL applies
so you can't really cheese combat with micro quirks.

balance: Light Step makes you carefully step over micros, without
hurting them.

## About The Pull Request
Having WALK MODE on makes it so you don't give micros any wounds/damage.
Knockdown still applies.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Giving people a way to not accidentally squish micros is good, having it
tied to walkmode which everyone can turn on willingly and not just a
quirk like before (Pacifism) is also good. The knockdown is still there.

Adds some balance around small sprites. You get trampled easily if
you're smaller than normal, by pixel scale and not mutations.

* Micro-optimize qdel by only permitting one parameter (#80628)
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.

* Adds `UPSIDE_DOWN` movetype for negative gravity / makes Atrocinator affected by less things (#79785)
## About The Pull Request
Fixes#79764
I was going to tackle this issue by slamming `TRAIT_NO_SLIP_ALL` on
Atrocinator users and calling it a day, but like, that didn't feel
proper.
So I thought hey, we could just give them the flying movetype, even
though they technically aren't flying it means they're unaffected by
things that flying would make you unaffected by.
Nope, this means the mob technically "negates gravity", so no falling
and no feetsteps.
Let's try floating - this give us feetsteps but no falling upwards.
So instead of going back to square one, with `TRAIT_NO_SLIP_ALL`, I
decided to go for the more complex route of just adding a movetype.
Hence, move type `UPSIDE_DOWN`. This covers situations where a mob would
be "floating" above the ground, but still walking. ...Negative gravity.
This means overall the Atrociator acts more as you'd expect - you don't
slip on ice, you don't trigger bear traps or mouse traps, you can walk
over railings, unaffected by conveyor belts, etc.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Makes the Atrocinator a lot more consistent with how you'd expect for it
to work.
Admittedly it is a bit niche use of movetypes, but it can possibly be
expanded to more things in the future, who knows? I applied it to mobs
on meat spikes (even though they don't move), just for proof of concept.
## Changelog
🆑 Melbert
fix: Atrocinating mobs will now behave more as you'd expect. Meaning
they don't slip on wet patches, can't trigger bear traps / landmines /
mouse traps, ignore conveyors, and can walk over tables and railings.
fix: Floating mobs are unaffected by conveyor belts, acid (on the
ground), glass tables
fix: Floating mobs won't squish stuff like roaches anymore
fix: Fixes bear traps triggering on floating / flying mobs

* Fixes a bunch of callbacks that were being qdeleted, and code cleanup (#77904)
## About The Pull Request
Continuing the work of
https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/pull/77850.
it started with finding one that was being missed and causing a
runtime...then I noticed a whole lot more. While I was doing this I
found callbacks that weren't being nulled in `Destroy()`, so I added
that wherever I found these spots as well as some general code cleanup.
There were a lot more of these than I initially hoped to encounter so
I'm labeling it as a refactor.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Fixes lots of runtimes, improves code resiliency.

* Refactors connect_loc_behalf into a component (#60678)
See title. Also refactors caltrops into a component because they use connect_loc_behalf which requires them to hold the state.
This also fixes COMPONENT_DUPE_SELECTIVE from just outright not working.
connect_loc_behalf doesn't make sense as an element because it tries to hold states. There is also no way to maintain current behaviour and not have the states that it needs.
Due to the fact that it tries to hold states, it means the code itself is a lot more buggy because it's a lot harder to successfully manage these states without runtimes or bugs.
On metastation, there is only 2519 connect_loc_behalf components at roundstart. MrStonedOne has told me that datums take up this much space:
image
If we do the (oversimplified) math, there are only ever 5 variables that'll likely be changed on most connect_loc_behalf components at runtime:
connections,
tracked,
signal_atom,
parent,
signal_procs
This means that on metastation at roundstart, we take up this amount: (24 + 16 * 5) * 2519 = 261.97600 kilobytes
This is not really significant and the benefits of moving this to a component greatly outweighs the memory cost.
(Basically the memory cost is outweighed by the maint cost of tracking down issues with the thing. It's too buggy to be viable longterm basically)
