Currently, storage works as a subtype of /datum/component, utilizing GetComponent() and signals to operate. While this is a pretty good idea in theory, the execution was pretty trash, and we end up with alot of GetComponent() snowflake code (something that shouldn't even need to be used frankly), and a heaping load of scattered procs that lead into one another, and procs that don't get utilized properly.
Instead, this PR adds atom_storage and proc/create_storage(. . .) to every atom, allowing for the possibility of storage on quite frankly anything. Not only does this entirely remove the need for signals, but it heavily squashes down the number of needed procs in total (removing snowflake signal procs that just lead to one another), reducing overall proc overhead and improving performance.

Atomized from the proc holder PR
Refactors gunlight / helmet light to be a component.
They just copy+pasted code between each other and it was really annoying. I was working on fixes for the proc holder PR and noticed this (had to make the same fix for two things).
Moved Mind Monkey Helmet to its own file
Balloon alerts for seclite attachment / removal
One may be able to genericize this even further and put the bayonet behavior on this as well. Future idea.
Why It's Good For The Game
Cleaner, less copy pasted code.
Changelog
cl Melbert
refactor: Gunlight / Helmetlight behavior is now a component.
qol: Gunlight / Helmetlight now uses balloon alerts.
/cl
Why It's Good For The Game
Ninja code is pretty bad, I think it's best to move away into nice modular stuff instead.
Changelog
cl Fikou, PositiveEntropy, Nerevar, InfraRedBaron
refactor: the ninja space suit is now a modsuit
fix: fixes dash beams not working
/cl
Fixes#58058 (Fried items have error sprites when attacking, fried and grilled items grill the error sprite)
Attacking humans or other things that have KEEP_TOGETHER (atmos omni tanks, supplypods, paintings) with a deep fried thing will now actually show that thing instead of both that thing and an error sprite.
Attack animations for attacks against those things are no longer black.
refactors our disease code a tiny bit
removes permeability_coefficient variable from clothing, it decided how much stuff like chems or disease passed through your clothes, while BIO armor only decided how much you could spread diseases yourself, making it pretty much laughable
permeability_coefficient is now fully rolled into bio armor, so your bio protecting stuff will now protect you from other biological hazards like blobs
This PR refactors firestacks into two status effects: fire_stacks, which behave like normal firestacks you have right now, and wet_stacks, which are your negative fire stacks right now. This allows for custom fires with custom behaviors and icons to be made.
Some fire related is moved away from species(what the fuck was it even doing there) into these as well.
Oh and I fixed the bug where monkeys on fire had a human fire overlay, why wasn't this fixed already, it's like ancient.
Also changed some related proc names to be snake_case like everything should be.
This allows for custom fire types with custom behaviours, like freezing freon fire or radioactive tritium fire. Removing vars from living and moving them to status effects for modularity is also good.
Nothing to argue about since there's nothing player-facing
* Life() Optimization Part 1: Organ order
It turns out organ code is really quite dumb. Wastes a lot of time.
I'm going to be doing what I can to optimize it in this branch.
To start with:
If we can ensure organs are sorted according to organ_process_order inside
internal_organs_slot
We can do away with a needless get_organ_slot call in handle_organs, and
avoid needing to iterate over 30 entries, one per possible organ slot,
instead iterating just the ones we have
This saves roughly 5% of life
* Organ Optimization Part 2: base on_life()
Organ on_life, despite not looking it, is a remarkably hot proc. Called
something close to 9 times for each human on the map, it's worth taking
care to clean it up.
As things currently stand, we do two dumb things.
The first is manually checking for organ failure each iteration.
We do this because we allow organ damage to be modified outside of the
applyOrganDamage proc, which also calls check_failing_thresholds.
There's no reason to do this, so I've gone through and removed all
instances of it
The second is calling applyOrganDamage no matter what, to "heal" the
organ. Even if it isn't damaged.
The fix for this is simple, just an if check.
This saves roughly 10% of pre changes Life() cost
* Blood cleanup beta version
Blood code is slightly more sane, but it calls get_part_bleed_rate a
lot, and does other checks that are the same so long as the bleed rate
never changes. This is reasonably expensive
So, I'm going to make it event driven, and cache the bleed rate. But to
do that, I need to be able to react to limb ownership changes, and well,
there's a few that don't use the existing setter. This commit fixes that
* Blood cleanup beta 2.0
I'm starting on the work to make bleed rate cached
Adds NO_BLEED to the signal registration of set_owner
This lets us generically react to it
Makes changing your bleedstacks into a proc we can hook into
Fully implements it
* Blood optimization beta 3.0
Hooks into embedding/embed details updating, this ensures the embed
aspect of bleed rate is properly accounted for
* Blood optimization beta 4.0
Hooks wounds into refresh_bleed_rate, adds a setter for blood flow to
support this
I feel like there are places where this would be useful, but I'm not
totally sure
Kinda wanted to ask ryll
* Blood optimization, the final countdown
Fully caches bleed_rate. Because I can do this, we only need to call update_part_wound_overlay when bleed rate updates
This saves 15%! of human life tick. Get owned
* Optimizes body_temperature_alerts
It turns out that clearing alerts and sending signals every process is
wasteful. There's no reason to do it unless last process was a problem
one
The change for that is quite easy, literally just a new var on human.
Saves 2% of human life tick.
Very nice for the amount of time I put into it
BTW, I have a feeling that most of the overhead of bodytemp is caused by
human body temperature being higher then room temperature. Not sure
what to do about this though
* Does something similar to disgust
Basically, don't continusly send signals if you have no disgust
It's rare enough that this is all the caching we really need to do
Saves roughly 1% of life tick. Right on the edge of not worth it
* Some cleanup to how mob fires handle their lighting, adds a check to liver coder
* Cleans up update_gravity slightly
It's very close to outside a measurable deviation faster, but I honestly
just did it to make it easier to read
* Fuck you
* Very minor organ optimization
Instead of using internal_organs_slot for our organ iteration,
we use it to produce a sorted internal_organs list.
This is barely worth it, ends up being 0.7% of life saved.
I only did it because it makes a semi noticable impact on our current
numbers.
* Revert "Very minor organ optimization"
It turns out mutating internal_organs is important sometimes
The usefulness of this change is small enough that I don't want to spend
more time on it
So back it goes into the dirt
This reverts commit 622bd34adb8d8a3d5f2763ac659446ef3362e3cd.
* Properly returns false in IgniteMob
* Adds a parent call to setBleedStacks
I like it, it's a good idea
* FINALLY. I'VE KILLED IT. I CAN LIVE MY LIFE NOW.
I hate the fucking Toggle Research Scanner action button so god damn much. Why the fuck would I ever not want this to be on? Why do you think I'm wearing the fucking goggles? That stupid button is so annoying to use. Even if I'm NOT using the research scanner aspect of the goggles, that little shit floats there, taking up space on my screen, taunting me.

About The Pull Request
I noticed a lot of strange and un-intuitive behavior in action buttons, and got stung by the bloat bug. Damn it hug #58027
I'll do my best to explain what I've changed and why, might get a bit long.
If you want a better idea, read the commits. Most of em are pretty solid, if long.
Whelp. Here we go.
How do action buttons currently work
All action buttons are draggable, to any place on the screen. They're held in an actions list on the player's mob.
Their location in this list determines their position on the top of the screen. If one is dragged away from the top, its position in the list is "saved". This looks really bad.
If two buttons are dragged over each other, their positions swap. (inside the actions list too)
If a button is shift clicked, it is brought back to the position it started at.
If the action collapse button that you likely just mentally edit out is alt clicked, it resets the position of all action buttons on the screen.
If an action is ctrl clicked, it is "locked". This prevents any future position changes, and also enables a saving feature. With this saving feature, locked button positions persist between rounds. So your first o2 canister will always start where you saved it, etc.
Actions and buttons are a one to one link. While there is functionality to share action buttons between two players, this means showing the same object to both. So one player can move a button on another's screen. Horrendous.
This also makes code that modifies properties of the screen object itself very clunky.
Why is this bad
A: None knew pretty much any of this information. It is actually documented, just in a horribly formatted screen tip on the collapse button, you know the one we all mentally delete from the hud.
B: None of this is intuitive. Dragging buttons makes the hud look much worse, and you get no feedback that you even can drag them. Depressing
C: We use actions to make new options clear to the player. This means players can have a lot of action buttons on the hud. This gets cluttery
D: The collapse button is useless. It lets you clear your screen if someone like me fucks up and gives you 2000 actions, but outside of that it just hides all information from you. You never want to see none of your action buttons, just a filtered list of them.
E: On a technical level, they're quite messy, and not fully functionally complete. This is depressing.
What I've done
Assuming the above to be true, how do we fix them?
Well first I'm going to go over everything I changed, including links to major commits. I'll then describe the finished product, and why I made the decisions I did.
Oh and I've moved some of the more niche or technical discussion to dropdowns. Hopefully this makes finding the major functional changes easier
Adds helper procs for turning screen_loc strings into more manageable arrays. This doesn't fully support all of the screen_loc spec, but it's enough for what I'm doing. (f54865f)
Uses these helper procs to improve existing code (6273b93)
Fixes an issue with tooltip code itself. If you tried to hold down a mouse button while dragging onto a tooltip enabled object, it would silently fail. The js made assumptions about the order args came in, which broke when buttons were held down (e0e42f6)
Adds a signal linked to /client/Click(). Surprised we didn't have this before honestly (c491a4a)
Makes /client/MouseDrag() return parent. If we don't do this, any overrides of MouseDrag will never actually be called (2190b2a)
Refactors how action buttons work under the hood (53ccce2)
Basically, rather then generating one button per action, we generate one button per viewer
Starts to change button behavior, more cleanup
Changes the mouse cursor when an action button is dragged. Hopefully
this makes moving things feel less like an accident, and makes you doing
it more clear
Removes the moved and locked vars. This will be more relevant later, but
for now:
Moved exists as a sort of budget "We've been dragged" variable. We can
handle this more cleanly, and the movable type doesn't care about it
Locked is a very old variable that is also not something that the
movable type "owns". It's more an action button thing that's been moved
down.
It exists so an action can be locked in place, and in that locking, be
treated as a "saved location"
(21e20fc)
Because I've nuked move, we don't need to directly set our button's
position. We can use the default_button_position var instead. This is
quite handy.
Please ignore position_action, I will explain that later
(83e265e)
Removes the buttons locked pref
It was another obscure part of action buttons, basically do buttons
start "locked" or not. See previous discussion of locked
(b58b1bd)
Major rework starts here
Alright. Sorry for this, this is where me not commiting regularly starts
to suck. I'll do my best though.
Rather then figuring out an action button's position via a combination
of the moved and ordered vars, we use a separate location var to store
one of a few defines. This makes life later much easier.
Adds tooltip support for dragging action buttons. The way the tooltip
just froze in place when dragging really bugged me, and lead to some
nasty visual artifacts.
This is a bit messy because the drag procs are horrible, but it's
workable
Dropping a button on another button will no longer swap their positions
Behavior instead depends on the target button.
If it's a part of a group (A concept I will explain later) the dragged
button is simply inserted before it in the group's list.
If it's floating on the general hud, we instead position the dragged
button to its right. There's extra logic here to ensure buttons will
never overflow the screen, but I'll get into that later.
Alright. That's most of the refactoring. Time for the larger behavior
changes.
Adds a button palette. This is a separate dropdown that renders
underneath buttons.
image
The idea is to allow for a conceptual separation between "important"
buttons and the ones that end up cluttering the screen.
You can click on the dropdown to open it, then any later clicks that
don't involve actions in some way will autoclose it.
My goal is to come up with an alternative for the action button that
just acted as a way to hide all buttons on screen. Not convinced it saw
much use.
As a side effect of removing that, I've moved its tooltip stuff to the
palette. I've properly formatted it, so hopefully it's easier to read
then the jumble that we used to have.
(You can alt click the palette button to reset all button positions)
Oh and the palette can scroll, since as you'll see later it has a
limited size.
image
Moving on from that, I've added what amounts to action landing buttons.
These allow buttons to rejoin groups, or be positioned at the end of a
line of buttons.
image
They've got a 32x32 hitbox, and only show up when dragging. Hopefully
this makes the system more clear just by dragging an action.
Oh and I've changed how button position updating works. The old system
of calling update_action_buttons on mob every time an action button
changes position is gone, mostly because I've setup more robust
grouping. Will discuss when I get to huds
(0d1e93f)
Adds the backbone behind action button position changes (94133bd)
Moves hud defines to the global folder, safer this way (7260117)
Adds color changing to the palette button, giving some heads up for buttons being inserted into the palette automatically
image
image
Ensures a landing button is always shown, even if it needs to break the
max row rule
Makes palettes auto contract if they have no buttons inside them
Prevents palettes from being opened if they have no buttons inside them
(f9417f3)
How it looks
2022-02-26.02-30-10.mp4
Why It's Good For The Game
Players have more control over the clutter on their screen.
Buttons are available, but not in the way,
Since any player move of a button saves it, any lack of clarity in the way buttons work will be forced out by buttons not just resetting when a new game starts.
We don't overlap any existing screen elements, unless the upper button list gets really long.
The code is much less crummy (I think, may have made it worse it's hard for me to judge my own work)
If it ends up not being as usable as I'd like, I'll rip out the existing changes and just implement the qol and backend stuff. I think it's worth doing though.
Changelog
cl
add: Expanded heavily on action buttons
add: Adds an action button dropdown that sits just under the normal list in the top left. You can drag new buttons onto it to insert them. Click on it to show its contents, do what you want to do, then click again anywhere to contract it. Alt click it to reset all button positions
add: Action buttons will now remember their position between rounds. So if you really like your flashlight right next to your player for some reason, we support that now
add: When you start to drag an action button, docking ports will appear in places that it can be inserted into. (Outside of just floating somewhere on your screen of course)
del: Removed action button locking, and the associated preference. I'm reasonably sure literally none uses this, but if you do hit me up
qol: Dragging an action button will now give you an outline of its size around your cursor
fix: You can no longer cause the screen to expand by putting an action button on the edge of widescreen, and then resizing to standard.
refactor: Refactors action and button code significantly. lots of little things.

Refactors fish into proper paths.
Removes aquarium behaviour intermediary datums.
Moves fish functionality out of aquarium content component.
Fixes flopping animation resetting on dropping.
Simplifies everything. There should be no player facing changes.
The animate signal is kinda weak method of solving the animate queue issue but it seemed least intrusive to me.
Open to any better ideas.
About The Pull Request
Simply converts all instances of soundkeys that use get_sfx from strings into defines.
E.g. "sparks" is now SFX_SPARKS
Why It's Good For The Game
It makes life a lot easier when you're looking for a sound effect. You just type SFX_ and you get suggestions in VSC. Plus, it looks better.

Not player facing.
When I added a drop animation, I forgot that things other then item animations can modify transform
In the spirit of this, I've ensured that other animations maintain the proper scale
* Item Pickup Brush-Up
Moves pickup animation code to items.dm
Removes sleep() from the current pickup animation. This affords it 3 decisecond to animate rather then 1
I believe this was causing the pixel shifting to end early. A 3 decisecond delay is more consistent with the
initial pr, and I think feels better. Maybe 2 tick is better? or 3 tick without any ending lag? not sure.
Adds a drop animation.
Hooks it in to items being removed from a player's hands, or items being transfered to a location. This includes when an item is removed from storage
Pickup animations have always felt somewhat stilted to me, and while I don't want the shake and long leadup included in the initial pr, I'm not even sure you can tell it's happening sometimes as things are now
It's by definition gonna feel a bit different since well, things are changing. I'm open to feedback on the delays here, especilly on the effect for taking things out of your bag. It's not new, but extending the pickup animation by 2 deciseconds really shows it
Lemme know what ya think yeah?
* Adds a random x bias to pickup/drops on the same tile, I think this will help lesson how crummy that can look
Lowers the same tile y shifting significantly, for similar reasons
Adds a Scale(0.7) to the end/start of pickup/drop. I think this makes things look just so much nicer
* Makes pickup scale slightly more before bouncing back to the size drop uses. starts out smaller anyway
* Moves the attack animation to items.dm. Makes it use the attacked atom's plane, which fixes attack animations playing behind mobs. Also makes it offset slightly on the x axis when you're attacking yourself, looks nicer I think
* Fix blastcannon typo. Hopefully fix blastwave phasing.
* Fix projectile phasing on direct target
* Should unspaghetti sniper bullet var definitions
* Makes phasing rounds phase
* Preserve original behavior of sniper rounds
About The Pull Request
Converts more inputs to TGUI. Possibly all user-facing input lists in the game.
Did any surrounding text/number inputs as well
Added null choice support so users can press cancel.
Added some misc TGUI input fixes
Fixed custom vendors while I was there
I refactored a lot of code while just poking around.
Primarily, usage of .len in files where I was already working on lists.
Some code was just awful - look at guardian.dm and its non use of early returns
If there are any disputes, I can revert it just fine, those changes are not integral to the PR.

Re-paths GAR glasses to make them subtypes of each other, where applicable.
Re-names some of the icon states, to make it clearer as to what they are.
Changes the alternate_worn_layer to make them show over hair, rather than under. (Muh reference)
Subtypes good. Being able to see what you're wearing properly also good.
Fixes#37518 , which has been in the game for much longer than 3 years. I'd estimate it's been around since monkeys were conceived, with the initial attempt to fix it being back in 2013 (Pull Request #846), over 8 years ago.
Allows monkeys to open worn backpacks instead of needing to drag them onto their sprite. Cause of this is the awful thing that is attack_paw, which is by far one of the greatest evils of our time but I'm not the one to fix that. On a technical level, this PR just adds some of the checks attack_hand does while omitting any balance-changing ones in order to fix this issue.
Do note that due to the nature of this fix, this might fix other monkey item bugs as well or cause unintentional behavior, but I can't think of anything bad coming from this.
bring code up to latest standards, move many procs to named files inside _HELPERS
no idea where to put some of these procs, help is appreciated
made more files to contain some unique code, deleted unsorted.dm, we can rest now
## About The Pull Request
stop forgetting to include mapload, if you don't include it then every single subtype past it by default doesn't include it
for example, `obj/item` didn't include mapload so every single item by default didn't fill in mapload

## Regex used:
procs without args, not even regex
`/Initialize()`
procs with args
`\/Initialize\((?!mapload)((.)*\w)?`
cleanup of things i didn't want to mapload:
`\/datum\/(.)*\/Initialize\(mapload`
About The Pull Request
Rewrites the entire preferences menu in tgui. Rewrites the entire backend to be built upon datumized preferences, rather than constant additions to the preferences base datum.
Splits game preferences into its own window.
Antagonists are now split into their individual rulesets. You can now be a roundstart heretic without signing up for latejoin heretic, as an example.
This iteration matches parity, and provides very little new functionality, but adding anything new will be much easier.

Simple_animals / mobs are the biggest lie in this code-base. They're far from simple and have an extreme god-object problem. Especially when you get to /hostile, where there is so many procs, vars, and what not, that you can't make any interesting additions without snowflaking the hell out of the code.
This PR hopes to help kill this problem by introducing a new /living subtype, /living/basic. The idea of this refactor is to slowly start moving all old simple_animals to this new system, moving over behaviors like charging and more extravagant mobs like megafauna over bit by bit similar to how newfood was implemented.
One of the other big goals of this refactor is to move many of the fringe simple animal behaviors into either AI datums, or components/elements. (Some of which still needs to be done in this PR).
As a proof of concept, I created the base mob/living/basic, and moved cockroaches over to the system. Since cockroaches have both a passive, melee and ranged mob.
This PR does slightly affect balance as the behavior isn't 1-on-1 due to it no longer running on the janky /hostile behavior, but I tried to keep the effects to a minimum, and the glockroach and hauberoach are not spawnable through many means as far as I know.
Title. Because of mob and object visuals under open space being able to be hovered over with the cursor and examined and in general acting as entities distint from the turf holding them it tends to be hard or even impossible to build floor and catwalks over these turfs. This PR aims to fix it with a basically simple, more-convenient-than-a-painstaking-refactor and easy to apply element (edit: and proc).
This PR improves item action button updating code by introducing a proc to update all item's associated action buttons, which simplifies the process and reduces code duplication.
I also fixed a relevant bug where a PDA's action button icon did not properly update upon light toggle because it did not force the button update. Forcing the button update is needed in this case due to how light overlay operates, where the button icon state stays the same, so the code thought updating the action button icon was unnecessary.
Fixes a runtime issue cause by the possibility of loaded_projectile being null by changing how projectile stats are obtained on energy weapons, and adds a separate line for energy ammo types that deal stamina damage and regular damage to incorporate both damage types
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)
Adds new signal - COMSIG_MOB_EQUIPPED_ITEM. Signal sent at the same time COMSIG_ITEM_EQUIPPED is and allows something to Register for every time a mob equips an item. Replaced a process() in /datum/quirk/badback with signals relating to this. Holds a weakref to any backpack it has registered signals with for use in its own remove() proc.
Removes snowflake code in /datum/quirk/light_step - This quirk no longer uses GetComponent to directly modify a component. Instead, the same code has been shifted into the component itself, which now checks for TRAIT_LIGHT_STEP and mods the volume and range accordingly.
Refactors quirk code in general - Quirks no longer do major logic in New() and no longer qdel themselves in New(). You now fully instantiate a quirk assigned to a var, then call /datum/quirk/proc/add_to_holder(). Various scenarios that shouldn't happen now get handled in this proc and calling code can cleanup properly. Quirks "support" having no quirk_holder - Since their default state is no quirk_holder until the quirk is added to a holder, and similarly quirks can be removed from a holder as well. Destroying a quirk with a quirk_holder will remove it from the quirk_holder properly. qdeling a quirk_holder will clean up any quirks attached to them.
Rethinks processing quirks - Quirks no longer all process automatically. The new logic changes mean their previous need to process() just to check if their quirk_holder had been QDELETED so they didn't become runtime factories has been removed by the refactored code. The few quirks that still process require processing_quirk = TRUE which will start them processing when added to a quirk_holder and stop processing on removal. This means there should be some many hundred fewer quirks process()ing 24/7 every shift.
Subtypes item quirks - A number of quirks are designed to give items to the player. There's code duplication and varying implementation issues, so item quirks have their own subtype with a proc and some vars to handle this. Quirks will no longer fail to give items at all (some quirks actually explictly qdel'd the items they give if the user had no free hands or slots) and will drop items on the floor in the worst-case scenario. Players will always get the opportunity to see messages related to item quirks as these are in a code path that, when the quirk is first added to a new mob, will either output immediately if the mob has a client, or wait for the mob to have a client otherwise.
"Roundstart quirks" paradigm removed - Quirks now have a path to add unique effects that aren't replicated if the quirk is transferred from one mob to another - add_unique(). Item spawning and other similar one-shot logic is done here. This means that adding a quirk to a mob will trigger the one-time effects. Transferring it between mobs (for example, slimepeople changing bodies or swapping a golem shell) will not. roundstart_quirks var renamed to just quirks since it genuinely is just a list of quirks the mob has from any source - Whether roundstart, admin or transferred.
Family Heirloom quirk - Heirloom is now a weakref.
Nyctophobia quirk - No longer process()es, now Registers COMSIG_MOVABLE_MOVED. Every footstep in the dark will slow you back to walking.
Reality Dissociation Syndrome quirk - No longer snowflakes behaviour for mindbreaker toxin on process. Now mindbreaker toxin has the anti-hallucination functionality built into its already existing HAS_TRAIT(M, TRAIT_INSANITY) check in on_mob_life.
Tongue Tied quirk - Now uses .getorganslot(ORGAN_SLOT_TONGUE) to find the tongue instead of locate() in internal_organs
Obsessed antag - Thanks to the Family Heirloom quirk now holding a weakref to the heirloom item itself, this antag type will no longer get the steal heirloom objective if the heirloom doesn't exist (ie. the weakref is null or fails to resolve, meaning the item has been destroyed)
Various quirks that were impossible to remove before are now removable - Examples being light step (which no longer directly modifies the footstep component) and bad back.
In addition, adds some extra documentation overall and improves compliance with code requirements in a number of procs (but certainly not all).
Probably various other little changes here and there to make the above all mesh together.
Sourced from #59118 and a cursed project I'll pr later, This pr contains a lot of harddel fixes for stuff that pops up after a player interacts with something. I'm not gonna list them all here because there's something like 60 130, check the commit log if you're curious
Oh and I moved ref tracking screaming to a separate define, and made some optimizations to the thing in general. I think that's it, this pr is a bit of a frankenstine
* Weapon Descriptions (And Also Reversion)
Adds support for weapon statistics to be shown as part of examining an item, similar to the tags found on armor. Also, reverts the small changes I made on master because I'm a fucking idiot and made those changes on master.

Yes this is blatant bait to get more things converted.
While working on this I fixed item greyscale updates to include their held and worn states, the vending machine ui is now tsx instead of js, icons generated by gags are created with an error state by default, the greyscale color menu defaults to not show you the full debug preview, and the wording in the debug menu is a bit more in-character friendly.

add: Greyscale items using GAGS in vending machines can have their colors chosen before vending. Not many things are capable of this yet but expect more to come.
