This changes the Spaceman simplemobs into basic mobs.
They really didn't do anything besides stand around and retaliate, so no
new AI datums had to be added.

## About The Pull Request
The current broken tiles have some visual issues:
- There is an ambient occlusion shade when it touches normal tile
- It has a layer higher than it should be which leads to things that are
normally above the floor layer, render below it. Such as atmos
machinery, cleanable overlays, etc.
This PR makes the render on a proper layer and work like a partially
destroyed floor tile that can be reclaimed with crowbar.
Also, the cleanables are now on FLOOR_CLEAN_LAYER to make dirt appear
above catwalks and these new tiles.
And the flat dirt now has 4 variants of sprites, while dust uses the old
dirt sprite. It seems like dust was just dirt with different description
before.
## Why It's Good For The Game
A broken tiling with no visual bugs and proper floor-like logic.
## Changelog
🆑 MTandi, Borbop
fix: Dust now has dust icon, instead of dirt icon. Dust on all maps
replaced with dirt
image: Flat dirt now picks from 4 new sprites
refactor: Made broken tiling work more like tiling and have
corresponding visuals. Added directional mapping variants.
fix: Cleanables now use FLOOR_CLEAN_LAYER to make sure that trash is
visible above catwalks

## About The Pull Request
Changed the amount from 1 to 5 for original `bone_gel` so it's easier
for mappers to add the right bone gel.
Deleted subtype `/four` and added subtype `/one` specifically for bone
gel creating.
Increased from 4 to 5 because surgical tape has 5.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Having 1 bone gel near 5 surgical tapes always seemed off.
## Changelog

## About The Pull Request

## Why It's Good For The Game
Knocks another one off the list, just really light stuff. They're a bit
smarter now too, I think the intention was them for them to be pet-like
as well (according to the code). Should be really rather easy to give
them the pet-like behaviors and elements if someone really wants to in
the future, just sorta paving the way for more work to be done to make
mobs more intricate/interesting.
## Changelog

## About The Pull Request
On the tin. They have pretty much nothing in common with chickens, so no
subtyping. They are in the same folder to keep that whole thing tidy,
though.
Also includes fixes to `growth_and_differentiation` element that I made
for spiderlings, since some stuff was yorked without me realizing. It
pretty much worked flawlessly for these chicks otherwise though. It all
works fine now.
## Why It's Good For The Game
More verbose naming scheme (instead of "holo", we get "permanent"
chicks), smarter AI for chicks, knocks them off the list, etc. etc.
One thing that I wanted to do was to have chicks recognize their mother
(if they had one), but that would be way out of scope for this simple
port PR. I'll dwell on adding something cool for that in the future.

refactor: Chicks are now a bit smarter, be careful not to squish them!

Dead potted plant seems to be originating from RD's office, but it's

## About The Pull Request
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bcUuqKrnvVY <- me getting rid of every
simple animal one thing at a time
Turns lightgeists into a basic mob. There are a few key advantages into
its implementation that was previously impossible in the simple animal
framework, which is entirely possible now.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Lightgeists can actually have a bit of AI now, as a treat. They didn't
have it prior because I assume if they attacked anything, they would end
up healing it, and we didn't really have an option in the simple animal
AI to say "do not attack"... This really fixes that so they can wander
around a bit and look cute if some admin decides to spawn them in (but
the only way to get them outright is to use the anomalous crystal, which
auto-assigns a player). You don't see the AI if a player ghosts out of
the lightgeist because the lightgeist will delete itself on ghost
(previous behavior).
It also gets rid of some janky AttackingTarget() override that was
completely un-needed post-#73202.
## Changelog
Nothing really player facing.
## About The Pull Request
On the tin, I keep trying to tackle the larger basic mob projects but

## About The Pull Request
Gym equipment are currently ported from Goon code, and I didn't like how
it currently worked as it was buggy and the code was a mess. I decided
to just rework how they worked entirely. I left the parts that weren't
Goon code (like tooltips & deconstruction) alone because it's not goon
code and I think it's fine that way.
- Now you buckle yourself to it (like a chair, I didn't like how it
didn't work like one) and can work out with an action button you get on
buckle, you can do as many sets as you want, then unbuckle & go.
- You aren't hardstunned for 8 seconds for clicking on it anymore, you
aren't flying around because the stun doesn't even last the duration of
the animation anymore.

This was pretty simple since they didn't have too much custom behavior,
and whatever they did have already had AI behavior. I got really burned
out the last two times I wrote intricate AI action/decision behaviors so
I'm just taking it light and doing the bare minimum.
one day our shackles will be free of the simple animal scourge. they're
also a bit more intelligent, and i daresay a bit cuter too now.
also that lizard gib animation has been sitting there for god knows how
long completely unseen, so let's actually hook it into the mob.
## About The Pull Request
This PR adds mapping helpers for requests consoles. Two of them set up
if the console can receive ore updates, and if it can make
announcements, flipping their relevant variables to TRUE. The other
three adds the consoles to their relevant department console lists
during late initialize. This allowed me to remove three variables
directly from the consoles themselves.

New sprites by CoiledLamb!
~~This PR also anchors mapping helpers, to prevent effects like the
roundstart crate initialization from moving them.~~ This was fixed by a
different PR.

## About The Pull Request
Inspired by #74967 and #68459 , and the fact that Tramstation regresses
very often -
Adds a unit test, `required_map_items`, which ensures that certain
typepaths which should definitely be mapped onto every map is mapped
onto every map
It can also be used to ensure that items which should not be mapped in
multiple times are not, among other things.
I included a few examples -
- Min 1, max inf of each head of staff stamps
- Min 1, max 1 departmental order consoles
- Min 1, max inf comms console
- Min 1, max 1 Pun Pun
- Min 1, max 1 Poly
- Min 1, max 1 Ian
If, in the future, a mapper decides they (for some reason) do not want a
certain previously-required item on their map, the test can be adjusted
such that it allows excluding or something, but currently it should be
for items which require conscious thought about.
#### QA: Why not make this a linter?
I attempted to make this a linter before realizing two things
1. Someone might make a spawner which spawns the items, or they might
get placed in a locker, in any case this accounts for everything on init
2. Linters run on every map, non-station maps included
So I went with a test
## Why It's Good For The Game
#50468#61013#74967
Why is it always the CMO stamp?
## Changelog
Not necessary (unless I find a map missing something, then this will be
updated)
I forgot this for like the third time in #75001 and I'm sick of never
remembering to do it so I'm adding a lint so I never forget again (and
will also help other people never forget to add the PR-number prefix).
## Why It's Good For The Game
UpdatePaths scripts should have a prefix with the PR number that adds
them, but since you don't know the PR number when you're making the
script (since I make the script very early in my development process),
it's often forgotten (especially since no one really looks at file
names). Let's end forgetfulness by failing CI if a script without a
numeric prefix is detected.
If I could've made this more atomic, I would have in a heartbeat, trust
me.
## About The Pull Request
Hey there. People were mocking us for having spiderlings still be a
subtype of `/obj/structure`. I decided to take a lot of time to fix
that. A lot of behavior it was implementing was just pseudo-mob stuff,
so it was actually easier than it looked for the raw conversion. A lot
of the footwork on spider stuff in the basic framework was already done
previously by Jacquerel, so that was pretty nice.
However, there are two new things that weren't introduced in the code
that had to be put in.
A) A component to handle growth and differentiation into a mob. This may
have already existed, no clue. If it does (and it's NOT
evolutionary_leap), let me know.
B) AI Behavior to handle seeking out a vent, entering a vent, and then
exiting out of a different vent. I may have gone a bit wacky on the
code, but it certainly works as expected (spiderling goes in one vent,
exits the other). Let me know if you can think of a way it can be better
optimized, but it was deliberately written to be very failsafey in case
shit goes yonkers.
One fundamental difference between structure spiderlings and basic mob
spiderlings (beyond the AI and not just a random prob() check for
movement) is the fact that they had vent movement coded in... but we
_really_ don't need stuff like that for our intents and purposes. If the
range turns out to be too OP in the current framework, we can always
change it up a bit, but also there's a _lot_ of vents we can end up in
the station (my testing had one spiderling end up in the AI sat to get
obliterated).
## Why It's Good For The Game
Spiderlings aren't structures! They behave like a mob should! Players
can possess spiderlings! They work seamlessly with differentiating into
a giant spider! Better AI! More room for people to add into this very
under-utilized buggers!
## Changelog
🆑
refactor: Spiderlings are now basic mobs, report any complete
weirdness/deviation from known behavior. They should be a lot more
intelligent now though.
add: AI Spiderlings are super fragile, but they're also super fast,
especially when they get into a vent. Once they're in circulation, they
could end up everywhere! Maybe in the armory, maybe in a locked closet
in maintenance. Be sure to be vigilant and splat them whenever you can
to save the station from a whole lotta heartache!

## About The Pull Request
This PR refactors navigational beacons. In detail, this PR does the
following:
**General Interactions**
- You can now print boards. They are unlocked at Basic Robotics
Research, and can be printed both at engineering and robotics.
- The constructed machine requires no stock parts. When constructed, the
floor tile pops up, so you can actually interact with the device from
the get go.
- Made interacting with it more standardized, you no longer have to
screwdriver it to access the interface, instead you just click on it.
- Screwdrivering is instead part of the regular screwdriver -> crowbar
deconstruct process. However, you have to unlock the maintenance hatch
through the UI first.
- You can now use wallets too, to unlock the control interface, using
the GetID() proc.
- Interacting with tools uses balloon alerts where its possible.
**UI Interactions**
- New tgUI interface!
- Previously, you could put in anything as codes, and there was no guide
in game about what codes and values were valid. This has been replaced
by buttons with pop up text boxes, checkboxes and dropdowns.
- You can also reset the code values to roundstart values, or to blanks,
if the beacon had none.
- InterfaceLockNoticeBox component allows the silicons to unlock the
controls
**Other backend changes**
- Autodocs vars and procs in the navigational beacon file.
- Added defines for the various nav beacon codes.
- The freq var on beacons and the beacon_frequency var on robots did
absolutely nothing, so I have removed them, along with the map varedits,
and the frequency define. Maybe in the future one can readd them, to
make bots that only patrol specific areas (though you can still do that
with good next patrol location tagging).
- Mulebots were using the navbeacon's direction itself to figure out the
direction they have to put down crates, instead of the direction tag.
Now the tag actually works, allowing me to remove a bunch of varedits. I
did keep the beacon's direction as a fallback, in case no direction tag
is set, which should be South always.
- I audited and touched up the directions tags that were not in line
with the previous beacon directions (which caused things such as the
mule trapping themselves behind the crate.
- Sadly, making it use the default screwdriver construction means it is
no longer transparent in maps editors 😔

## Why It's Good For The Game
Closes#38064 . More items being constructable is more fun, and its
better if you can use an item without checking the map about how it is
supposed to work.

## About The Pull Request
### **Cargo Black Market goods should stay in cargo's hands**
#### New Cargo Console Category: Imports
This category is explicitly the non-departmental category beyond simply
having a Misc category. It is meant for material that nobody is meant to
be buying for their departments, and mostly for the odd-ball crates that
might show up. It also allows us to maintain contraband as exactly that;
contraband that the departments shouldn't have access too whatsoever. If
someone is buying from this category, they probably intend to be a
cheeky fuck.
<details>
<summary>The New Changes</summary>
#### Baseline Imports
MEAT: MEAT (meat backpack you can eat)
<details>
<summary>MEAT</summary>


</details>
Duct Spiders: They're adorable and cause a mess, but that doesn't stop
Nanotrasen from importing them from the Australicus sector to your
station!
Stack of 50 Bamboo Cuttings: Pretty expensive and kind of a premium.
Allows for those people looking to make bamboo decorations without
hoping botany exists, and are at least willing to pay. Also lets them
make horribly dangerous stuff with bamboo, of course.
A Single Sheet of Bananium: The problems this will cause I think speak
for themselves. (mostly due to a clown fruitlessly attempting to make
something actually disruptive while bankrupting cargo)
Natural Fish Bait: It isn't cheating, it's homemade. (Really good bait
but expensive and obviously drugs)
A dumpster...: A corpse in a dumpster, doesn't get more complicated than
that. Useful for corpse reasons.
Made using some code I borrowed from over here!
https://github.com/lizardqueenlexi/orbstation/pull/354
#### Contraband Imports
Foam Force Pistols: Same as it ever was with a price reduction. I
brought it down because riot darts are like 8 bullets a clip, and do
less damage than a disabler using riot darts. It feels like a sidegrade
weapon, and even if it technically is a ballistic weapon, it...isn't
that strong. I think this is pretty safe.
Definitely Not a Duct Spider: It's actually a giant spider in a box. If
you want to waste cargo's money while also sending them a mess to deal
with, this is the crate for you.
Russian Surplus Military Gear Crate: I took this opportunity to futz
with boltaction rifles. There are two kinds of mosin nagant you can get
in this crate. One of them is the good kind (no jamming). The other is
the shit kind (yes jamming), but you get more of them. You can get the
good ammo, or you can get the shit ammo. You'll have to pick through it
a lot more carefully to make sure you know which ones you've received.
Since this dilutes the pool even further, getting a good number of
mosins that aren't trash is even more expensive, and even if you do get
mosins at all, you might still only get the bad ammunition that doesn't
work against actual human threats as well. It also now cannot be
purchased through the security cargo supply console, and as to why they
could in the first place baffles me. Doesn't have a lock anymore
because...it's contraband? Who is locking this stuff?
**Side note: _You can make surplus 7.62 in the autolathe as well. It is
not very good except to fight fauna or naked assistants._**
**Side Side note: _I've killed off the shitty brand_new subtype and
brought peace once more to this land._**
#### Illegal Imports (Emag)
NULL_ENTRY: A journal that suggests how to make a...very interesting
weapon. The Regal Condor. Kind of an evolution on some other ideas I've
had over the years. This one is basically a secret weapon with a few
hurdles to jump through. Very lethal. Very expensive.
**Side note: _For reference, it's effectively 19 TC worth of gear to
make, but there does exist some methods to acquire this more cheaply if
you can get some bits and pieces from world spawns. Given it requires
you to get some pieces of equipment that might require additional
purchases of contraband, and getting into the captain's office to loot a
specific piece of clothing, the stakes more than make up for the
effectiveness._**
Smuggled WT-550 Autorifle Crate: This is basically the same, but you
might have noticed had you recently attempted, like me, to buy these
when you emagged them using a personal account and discovered a tragic
oversight. You couldn't, because they still needed armory access. This
removes that access, because you've already gone to the effort of
getting your hands on an illicit firearm through cargo, and if they
techs somehow miss the fact that you've purchased a WT-550...all the
better for you!
Smuggled WT-550 Ammo Crate: Includes AP and Incendiary!
**Side note: _You can get WT-550 ammo again via the Illegal Technology
node._**
Shocktrooper: Replaces the Special Ops crate. Contains a box of EMPs,
smoke grenades, a couple of gluon grenades and a couple of frag
grenades. Funsies.
Special Ops: The NEW Special Ops crate. Contains a chameleon mask,
jumpsuit and agent card. And a knife.
**Side note: _This is what appears in some cargo loan events._**
Refurbished Mosin Nagant Crate: The actual good mosin nagants. There are
6 of them. But they don't come with spare ammo. Hand them out to your
techs!
</details>
#### New Crates
- MEAT crate - Standard
- Duct Spider crate - Standard

- Shocktrooper crate (Grenades) - Emag
- Special Ops crate (Disguise) - Emag - Appears in some cargo loan
events
- Refurbished Mosin Nagant crate - Emag
- Regal Condor construction journal (NULL_ENTRY) - Emag
#### Changed Crates
- Foam Force Pistols (cheaper) - Contraband
- Russian Surplus Crate (less reliable, can't be bought by security
console) - Contraband
- WT-550 crate (more obtainable via personal accounts, thus
incriminating, not armory locked) - Emag
- WT-550 ammo (includes incendiary and AP) - Emag
#### Crates that got moved, unchanged, into Imports
- Foam Force Crate
- Cosa Nostra Crate
- Black Market LTSRBT
- 'Contraband' Crate
- Biker Gang Crate
#### Not crate changes
- You can print Surplus 7.62 (same as normal 7.62 but it sucks against
armor) from hacked autolathes.
- You can get WT-550 ammo from illegal tech.
- Removes the redundant Brand New Mosin subtype
- Fixes a potential exploit with jamming chance on Mosins.
## Why It's Good For The Game
I just think some of the magic of Cargo getting their hands on obviously
dangerous equipment and either hording it for themselves or attempting
to pawn it off was lost in recent times. A lot of this 'black market'
gear, however, suddenly became openly available to the crew anyway. For
_free_. Contraband crates and mafia crates could be purchased via the
Service budget. Security could just stock up en masse on mosins through
their console. And one fairly unfortunate consequence of a few recent
changes has made it nearly impossible to actually get illicit gear in
the first place, even if you did go to the effort of getting the money
for it.
On top of this, most of cargo's goods are pretty safe purchases. There
isn't much that would be considered 'actually a really bad idea to buy'
other than maybe supermatter shards. I wouldn't mind there existing ways
for someone to waste cargo's money while also causing them to have to
clean up the mess.
## Changelog
🆑
balance: A significant overhaul of various illicit and dubiously legal
goods and gadgets available via cargo.
balance: Cargo now has an Import category for all non-departmental
goods. (And black market goods)
balance: Most contraband that already exists has been moved into
Imports.
adds: Includes several new imports of dubious quality. You get what you
pay for.
code: Removes the brand new mosin subtype as it is now defunct.
fix: Fixes potentially exploitative code in the jamming proc. Cleans up

## About The Pull Request
I replaced the wrong subtype, so this change never went through. Whoops.
It was also missing the proper naming scheme, that's also my bad.
## Why It's Good For The Game
i made the subtypes but they never got applied because i ballsed it up.
## Changelog
Nothing that concerns players.
(i found this because we're still getting active turfs on this ruin in
production, but I was unable to replicate it with or without this fix...
ugh)
## About The Pull Request
The xeno_spawn landmark, used to pick spawn locations for many different
midrounds (but NOT xenomorphs, ironically), has been killed and been
replaced with the generic_maintenance_landmark landmark.
This also adds atmos safety checks to some of the midround spawn
location selections that were missing them:
- Paradox Clone
- Nightmare
- Fugitives
- Morph
I decided to do both of these at the same time, since I'd be touching
most of the same files anyways.
This includes an updatepaths that, if you are on a downstream running a
custom map, should probably definitely run.
## Why It's Good For The Game
It may not be a secret that these landmarks aren't used for spawning
xenomorphs anymore, but the name is still deceptive. This should
communicate what they're used for a bit better to both coders and
mappers.
Atmos safety checks (for the midrounds I hadn't yet added them to) make
sure people can play the game.
Closes#74372.
## Changelog
🆑
code: The xeno_spawn landmark is now the generic_maintenance_landmark
landmark.
fix: Certain midrounds will now check for atmos safety before spawning.

## About The Pull Request
Spontaneous regressions introduced by #74359
(1e58c1875d).
```txt
- Z-Level 2 has 150 active turf(s).
- Z-Level 3 has 150 active turf(s).
- Z-Level trait Ice Ruins Underground has 300 active turf(s).
- Z-Level trait Mining has 300 active turf(s).
- Z-Level trait Station has 300 active turf(s).
- End of active turf list.
```

Basically the lavaland ruin sucks dogshit and I had to do a lot of stuff to account for everything failing. There was even a moment where we were adding something to `flags_1` instead of `turf_flags` and that was also really bad to figure out.

i also had to add orange genturfs because it was really getting bad with all of the assertions we had to keep making, especially since stuff like this could also show up:

That's the prison in the red box, those are active turfs because a chasm scraped it away.
Sorry if this is hard to follow but I promise you everything in this is essential. I wish we didn't have to rely on turf flags as much as we do but this is a fix PR, not a refactor.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Even one active turf on IceBox ate up _three_ seconds of SSair's initialization every single time it was really fucking bad.
We haven't had to deal with chasms for about two years so there's a lot of mapping assertions we made since they just weren't a thing, but now they're back so lets do it properly.
## Changelog
🆑
fix: The prison on IceBox should no longer leak air as often.
/🆑
I have compiled this map about 30 times until active turfs stopped fucking happening and now I am content. This likely doesn't fix _everything_ because some stuff can still be hidden to me, and we still have PRs that need to be merged to reduce the amount of noise we're getting on prod.
## About The Pull Request
Removes the /brig red plastitanium shuttle floor, replaces the checks
related to it with checking if the area is the shuttle brig
From what I checked in vscode, all the shuttles that use this floor
already also have the shuttle brig area on the same tiles so it changes
nothing (and might even fix things if shuttles don't use this floor type
for their shuttle brig)
## Why It's Good For The Game
Why the fuck are we checking for a TURF

## About The Pull Request
**This is not a literal biscuit which you eat. "Biscuit" is just a
nickname of this kind of snap-cards.**
Slip paper is now actually paper, before that, it was just literally
nothing, an object which does nothing. Because of that, the paper cutter
was useless as well, as it turned normal paper into useless paper slips.
Because of this now paper cutters are placed at:
- Bridge
- HoP office
- Warden office
- Cargo
Also adds biscuit cards. If you have no idea what it is, it's a kind of
card placed around a piece of paper usually to conceal some document and
it can be opened by cracking it with a crunchy sound (that's why it's
named a biscuit). Those are usually only opened in certain situations or
emergencies (The most famous example is the US president's nuclear
biscuit, which contains nuclear codes)
There are 2 biscuits: Normal and Confidential.
Normal is a plain biscuit with nothing really special, can be coloured
if you want as it's white.

The confidential biscuit is blue and has "NT" on it.

There is a not-sealed biscuit you can print in autolathe, it starts open
so you can put paper in and seal later making it a normal crackable one.
Now spare ID safe code automatically spawns in a confidential biscuit in
a new paper slip subtype - corporate slip paper. It's a plastic card
which is sturdier than the normal paper clip.

You can also create the corporate paper slip paper using - normal paper
slip, plastic, and captain rubber stamp (making this paper having a rare
status)


## Why It's Good For The Game
Paper slips being not paper is stupid and has no point in being that
way. This also made the paper cutter useless; hence, it was never placed
on any map (and never used).
This PR makes it paper, so it's usable when crew members need a paper
slip instead of a full-size sheet.
Placing paper cutters around the station makes it so the crew can
produce paper slips when they need them, this also gives it finally a
use and place on the station.
The 'biscuits' are cool and give more flavour to the spare ID safe
codes, as well as to other documents people might put in future PRs.
This also makes those paranoid captains which are scared of their spare
ID safe code being stolen and read can sleep tight, as now if someone
opens it up it's really obvious. Now also you can really make sure if
that head is lying about "not touching the spare ID", _but not as anyone
cares really._
**Okay, it's draft for now just so I can add some new things, and fix
the dupe bug:**
- [x] Being able to fax the paper biscuits
- [x] Make it impossible to cut paper slips into paper slips
- [x] Make corporate paper slips craftable or printable
- [x] Make confidential biscuits craftable or printable
- [x] Make paper cutters orderable at the cargo
_CRUNCH_
## Changelog
🆑 DrDiasyl aka DrTuxedo#0931
add: Added 'biscuit' cards! They can contain documents and can only be
accessed by cracking them open, you can't close them back. Nanotrasen
now stores spare ID safe codes in them.
add: Placed paper cutters around the station. They're in Bridge, HoP
office, Warden office, and Cargo.
add: Now you can order paper cutters at cargo.
fix: Now the paper slip is actually paper.
imageadd: The paper slips sprite was slightly tweaked to have text lay
more logically, added the corporate paper slip.

## About The Pull Request
### The Rifle:
-The Sniper Rifle is now a bolt action. This replaces the 4 second fire
delay on the sniper rifle. This overall will improve the fire rate if
you're good at racking the bolt, but it will also feel less like you're
in a weird limbo of inaction while using the sniper rifle, since the
fire delay can be quite confusing to players not used to it. This can be
tweaked, like reducing the speed of the racking action, if it seems like
it is too much.
-The scope component now goes up to 50 tiles (or so), which allows you
to gain a significant sightline over an area. The reasoning for this is
simple. The component actually nerfed the overall range of the sniper
rifle's scope, so this should hopefully restore that somewhat. And
having such a huge sightline makes it much easier to utilize the
impressive range of the rifle. Currently, it's really only ideal for
extremely close range fighting.
-The normal sniper rifle, the one that syndicate base scientists get,
can be suppressed. I don't know why it was different.
### The Ammo:
Normal .50 BMG: Does much more object damage, and on top of that deals
additional damage to mechs, but not by much more. Now, when it
dismembers a limb, it also deals its damage to the chest. This ensures
that you didn't straight up lose out on dealing a killing blow because
you took their limb off, and makes the dismemberment property of .50 BMG
a significant upside rather than a immense detriment.
Marksman: Gains a lot of the above benefits, but has much lower range.
Why this nerf? It's actually because of some funny nonsense with how
ricochet works. Which can cause....accidents to happen. To you. Consider
that firing down a straight line and missing could be quite embarrassing
when the bullet has 400 tiles of range.
Soporific: Now called Disruptor ammo. Works as it did before, putting
humans to sleep for 40 seconds (seriously, 40 seconds). Also deals some
stamina damage, if...that's relevant. But now also causes an EMP effect
and a boatload of added damage to both mechs and borgs, allowing it to
be an excellent anti-mech and anti-borg ammo type, as well as scrambling
any pesky suit sensors, energy weapons and so on in an area around the
impact. Useful for support fire.
Incendiary (NEW!): Causes a massive firebomb to go off where it impacts
(no explosion, so this isn't a stun). Also sets the target on fire,
which is always fun. Good for shooting into groups of people with
impunity. Also deals burn damage instead, since I think nukies could use
more methods for direct fire damage.
Surplus (NEW!): It's .50 BMG but it lacks most if not all the upsides.
No armour penetration, no dismemberment, no paralysis. It still deals a
lot of damage to objects, so not a bad option for simply removing
structures from afar. So what's the point in this ammo? You can buy 7
magazines for the price of one. I want to introduce 'Surplus' as an idea
for nukies to invest in if they want to be able to keep shooting but
they're really on a budget, like most non-warop nukies tend to be. This
is definitely subject to change (like a damage decrease on top of
everything else).
Pricing and Capacity: Normal ammo and surplus costs 3 TC. Every special
ammo costs 4 TC. Every special ammo also has the same ammo capacity as
the normal magazine. It's kind of weird how most of the subtypes had 5
shots rather than 6, but then soporific had...3? I don't get it. This
would probably cause a good deal of confusion, especially if you are
swapping ammo types and weren't aware of this particular oddity.
Anyway, 6 shots.
### Minor Addition
Gets rid of the cheap suppressor. It lies to players, tricking them into
thinking this is a low quality suppressor. Newsflash, it isn't. There is
no distinct difference between that suppressor and the normal
suppressor.
## Why It's Good For The Game
The sniper rifle, unfortunately, sucks a lot except for very specific
use cases. It got a big nerf with the scope component in terms of range,
even if the functionality is way cooler. And, at a baseline, there was
some counterintuitive functions attached to it. Dismemberment was cool,
but it also caused a loss in overall damage due to how limbs contribute
to core health. On top of this, the cool ammo types were...not much
better? Penetrator was almost always the best option, even if it lost a
lot of damage as a consequence.
So, what was it good for? X-ray + Penetrator. Pretty much, that's it. It
has some other uses but if I had to be entirely honest, there wasn't
much that other weapon couldn't do as well.
Hopefully this helps things going forward, and I want to mess with this
as well down the line in case its a bit too much of a boost in power.
Absolutely please rip this PR apart.
## Changelog
🆑
balance: Makes the syndicate sniper rifle a bolt-action rifle.
balance: Sniper rifles have a scope range of roughly 50 tiles.
balance: Sniper rifle ammo, if it dismembers your limbs, does damage to
the chest.
balance: All the various syndicate sniper rifle magazines have
consistent casing quantities (6 shots). They also have more consistent
pricing. 3 for normal and a box of surplus, and 4 for every other type.
balance: Reduces the range of Marksman ammo to 50 tiles. Not because it
is strong, but because you might accidentally shoot yourself if you're
not watching where you're shooting. Ricochets are no joke.
add: Replaces Soporific with Disruptor ammo. Works like soporific, but
also EMPS things it hits.
add: Adds Incendiary .50 BMG. Causes a combustion to erupt from the
struck target, as well as setting targets on fire. Great for parties.
add: Adds Surplus .50 BMG. It sucks, but you get a lot of them! Quantity
over quality, baby.
remove: The suppressors in the bundle are of standard quality. The
apparent 'cheap suppressor' that came bundled with the C-20r and sniper
rifle were found to actually be 'fine'. Trust us.

## About The Pull Request
Adds a new craftable HoS shako, made from the standard peaked cap and
some plasteel and gold.

Moves the HoS cap into a subtype `/obj/item/clothing/head/hats/hos/cap`
to avoid catching the beret in the crafting recipe, the base type
`/obj/item/clothing/head/hats/hos` is now a generic subtype which should
never exist.
(Yes there's a TF2 reference included with the hat)
## Why It's Good For The Game
Adds an additional level of style for an HoS willing to put a little
effort into gathering the required materials. As it is crafted as a
one-to-one trade with another headgear there is no additional spare
headgear introduced.
## Changelog
🆑
add: The Nanotrasen Costuming Department has released specifications for
how to convert the Head of Security's cap into a shako.

## About The Pull Request
Did you know that there's 2 types of disks Science can print?
One of them creates a whole new techweb and is used to transfer data to
and from techwebs (which used to be for Theft objective, but nowadays
all it's used for is Admin techweb).
The other one is these disks you can find from Lavaland & for the
Limbgrower which holds nodes on them directly, they don't need anything
else.
These are both printable and have very similar names which could easily
confuse people, especially since they are both printed and used at the
same place, being the R&D room and R&D console.
This will hopefully simplify it, by removing the base Tech disks from
being printable. The only one that can be printed now is for
Limbgrowers, which can't be easily mixed with the other type of Disk.
Outside of that, Lavaland disks are staying the same, but I've moved
Bepis disks to use this, which allows us to remove Bepis techwebs being
made every single time a new bepis disk is created.
Examples of it in-game



## Why It's Good For The Game
There's no reason why every single Bepis node should be making a whole
new techweb set with experiments to complete, roundstart nodes
researched, being constantly checked if it should gain research points,
have a list of papers to publish, and everything else that techwebs do.
Can you guess which disk does what in this screenshot?

## Changelog
🆑
balance: You can no longer print Technology data disks. You can still
print Tech disks, which hold techweb information on it, just not the one
that holds up to 5 nodes.
balance: ^ Because of this, there's no way to download nodes from an RD
console and upload them to an Autolathe to bypass departmental
restrictions, you have to go through a Techfab/Circuit imprinter for
your needs.
balance: Ones that are found cannot have anything uploaded/deleted off
of them either, you can only upload them to the Web.
code: Every individual Bepis disk no longer create an entire techweb

## About The Pull Request
### Hey! Listen! This PR _will_ cause a merge conflict with your PR!
Please ensure that you have the knowledge on how to handle merge
conflicts, found here:
https://hackmd.io/@tgstation/ry4-gbKH5#Assured-Merge-Conflict-Resolution
Supercedes #74023 entirely.
Port of the tooling introduced in
https://github.com/BeeStation/BeeStation-Hornet/pull/7970 (we already
had everything else), modified to meet /tg/'s requisites and culling
anything that was not entirely relevant (that I could see). It's not the
end of the world if I missed something tbh. Some aspects were commented
out since they may be relevant to downstreams who port this PR or to
enable (what I see to be) un-necessary warnings.
This is a culmination of a year's efforts, starting with _Red Rover,
Four Corners_ (#65290) and later _Opposing Corners_ (#65455). If you
don't understand why this PR exists or why it's necessary, I recommend
reading both of those.
Since then, several mappers (both in their own mapping as well as
tailored PRs) have worked on "flattening" out these tile turfs, however
I've continually wanted a function that would mass automate it (outlined
here https://tgstation13.org/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=31872 - This
functionality might still be useful if added to UpdatePaths or another
type of script thereof, but I no longer have reason to keep the bounty
up).
It's finally here! Yippie! A new python file, courtesy of itsmeow at
BeeStation. Very awesome. As previously mentioned, a lot of alterations
had to be made for our mapping desires, but the results are quite
agreeable. There's a few assertions that this file makes that I had to
address:
* We have "colorless" tile decals. These are transparent, so they don't
do anything. By default, bee would make these "white tiles", but we have
no such thing. I decided to just add a maplint and an UpdatePaths to
guard against this silliness (only Delta and Tram) had it.
* For some reason, it labels already-converted decals with the default
direction as an error state. I might touch this up in the coming hours,
but for now I surpressed the error due to how many false warnings it was
spitting out.
There's a few ways this tool can be improved, but I lack the knowledge
on how to do so:
* Make it so that we can run the map merger to fix the keys of the map
in the `update_map` function, rather than run the fixer-upper python
file. We can live without this to be honest. It's actually slightly good
because it forces you to look at all of the MapMerge Warnings, and you
can ascertain any potential errors without it silently passing you by
and hitting the repository (or at least those that we haven't linted for
yet).
* Be able to pass in any regex to "flatten" anything. That's way out of
scope for what I want to do here though.
## How do you use this tool?
I made a readme.

### Mapping March
oh hey it's pretty neat that this PR came out in mapping march, what a
nice qol for mappers as the month enters the home stretch. ckey is
san7890
## Why It's Good For The Game
slimmer DMM files, better mapping practices. cool new tool. so nice.
## Changelog
Nothing that really affects players, but a short summary for all those
reading this PR:
* All "corner" turf decals are flattened, and there's now a tool that we
store that you can re-run to keep stuff flat in case you like mapping
one way and want to fix it at the end.
* We (should) now lint against useless uncolored turf decals since that
was completely garbo as far as our codebase is concerned.
* UpdatePaths for fixing up uncolored turf decals, yippie!
If you want to review this PR, may I suggest the file filter. You don't
need to look at any of the DMM files I already did:

## About The Pull Request
New DLC bout to drop.

Lots of new things included:
- New basketball minigame that can be played between 2-7 players
- Crafting recipe for basketballs using leather sheets
- Crafting recipe for basketball hoops using metal, rods, and durathread
- New basketball sounds for the ball and hoops
- New scorecard that can be reset using CtrlClick
- Basketball hoops can be rotated using a wrench and AltClick
- Dunking and shooting animations.
### New basketball mechanics that now utilize stamina:
- Dunking costs large stamina and you must be directly adjacent to the
hoop and click on it.
- Shooting costs medium stamina and uses RMB. Shooting lets you aim the
ball over peoples heads, meaning anyone obstructing your path will be
bypassed. There is a half second delay during shooting where someone can
bump or push to prevent the shot from succeeding.
- Shooting from further away results in less accuracy. If you do not
click directly on the hoop, there is also an accuracy penalty!
- Passing costs no stamina and uses LMB. Trying to score into the hoop
via passing results in a reduced chance.
- Spinning costs medium stamina while holding the ball. It gives a
reduced chance for the ball to be stolen but decreases accuracy for
shooting.
- Pushing a player using RMB will attempt to steal the ball and drain
their stamina.
- The chance to steal the ball is based on the stamina of both players
and the direction they are facing. If the person with the ball is at low
stamina, and the person stealing is at full stamina, they will have a
higher chance. Likewise, if the person with the ball is face to face
with the stealer, then there is a higher chance for the ball to be
stolen. If the person has their back to the stealer, then it's a lower
chance.
- Shooting from more than 2 tiles away, results in 3 points. See below
picture to know the distance.

### Now to introduce the teams:

Big shoutout to the nukie round a few weeks ago where the nuke ops
challenged the crew (and clown) to a basketball match on their rebuilt

basketball mechanics were very raw and needed some polishing.
#### TODO LIST
- [x] Fix bug where ball only goes over peoples heads if they are 1 tile
away
- [x] Remove leftover code comments and procs
- [x] Rebalance stamina values (maybe move this to different ball types)
- [x] Fix basketball stadium template runtiming from wall smoothing
during load
- [x] Fix space surfer stadium having an air breach somewhere
- [x] Add more sounds for when ball is passed, shot, or dunked
- [x] Make it so that holding a ball while on the floor isn't possible
(to avoid those meta cheese strats)
- [x] Drop basketball lets mobs make sounds when spinning (need to
detach signal?)
- [x] Finish adding a simple lobby menu for minigame

add: New basketball mechanics that uses stamina. Shoot with RMB, pass
with LMB, and dunk by clicking the hoop while adjacent. Spinning while
holding the ball decreases the chance for someone to steal the ball, but
it decreases your shooting accuracy. Shooting from 2 tiles away lets you
score 3 points.

## About The Pull Request
The chainsaw now has an audio loop, as well as SFX for starting and
stopping. I'm pretty confident that I did the attribution stuff
correctly.
https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/28870487/225054900-4bf87ee7-9245-4004-b414-77d0e6e83a7c.mp4
I think this came out well. It may be a bit loud, but I wanted the
volume to be about the same as how the chainsaw slash sound comes out.
Audio stuff isn't really my forte, so let me know if anything sounds
off, or if any adjustments should be made.
To make this work for the mounted chainsaw (more specifically, the
abstract object that enters your hand), it has been made into a chainsaw
subtype. An updatepaths script has been included in the event that
someone has a map where the former path was included (why??).
## Why It's Good For The Game
Makes the chainsaw more menacing. It's one of the most powerful and
beloved pieces of crew weaponry, in addition to being a fucking
chainsaw. If you aren't keen on walking around the hallways with the
chainsaw loop playing like the badass you are, you can always just keep
it off until you get into a fight.
Gives an extra bit of immersion for those special moments where you get
to chainsaw someone to death.
