Bring _HELPERS/_lists.dm to latest standards by:
-Adding proper documentation and fixing existing one
-Giving vars proper names
-Procs now use snake case as per standard (many files that use those procs will be affected)
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
What does the PR do
This reworks how our rendering is handled, specifically moves away from plane masters as the end solution:
Instead we replace plane masters rendering directly to client with planes that render multiple planes onto them as objects in order to be able to affect multiple planes while treating them as a single object. This is done by relaying the plane using a "render relay" onto a "render plate" which acts as a plane master of plane masters of sorts, and since planes are rendered onto it as single objects any filters we apply to them will render over the planes, treating them as a single unit
image
Also cleaned up unused plane masters and render targets to reduce clutter, as well as removing a useless filter that was resulting from confusion due to said clutter.
Clientside performance testing showed no significant change, no effect on serverside performance as this is clientside.
Also added the blackness plane master so it can be relayed, side effect is that it can now be used to adjust how blackness is rendered
P2 should introduce rendering one plane to multiple render_plates, but i want to get this done before I finish that, though testing shows its feasible
Why It's Good For The Game
Allows more advanced effects.
As an example i made a grav anomaly effect in like 30 seconds for this video i will improve it once im awake properly:

Documentation images should be merged here after this pr is done

So I started with fixing some timing stuff in #61540, decided to look into foam harddels since I've known about them for a while, got bored, tried to figure out the plane master failures I've seen, and well uh, did.
I'm sure there'll be more, but for now:
Fixes foam darts sticking around post qdel due to dumb guncode, adds a stack trace to handle it.
Makes map popups actually clear the screen they're effecting of their objects, preventing plane master harddels, most commonly sourced from admin pod memes. Not clearing from the screen WAS SOMEHOW AN INTENDED FEATURE!?!@ because "clients log out often anyway and that clears screen so it's fine" I am having a meltdown
Changes examine timers from a ref + signal to a ref(), the timer's 1 second, it's not gonna cause any collisions for the love of christ
Fixes#61515. Preferences were only applied on load_preferences(), which only fires when the preferences datum is created. Preferences datums are cached, and so load_preferences is only called the once.
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.

Major TODOs
Quirk icons, from @Fikou (with some slight adjustments from me)
Lore text, from @EOBGames (4/6, need moths and then ethereal lore from @AMonkeyThatCodes)
Heavy documentation on how one would add new preferences, species, jobs, etc
A lot of specialized testing so that people's real data don't get corrupted
Changelog
cl Mothblocks, Floyd on lots of the design
refactor: The preferences menu has been completely rewritten in tgui.
refactor: The "Stop Sounds" verb has been moved to OOC.
/cl
Simply puts species IDs into defines ("lizard" turns into #define SPECIES_LIZARD "lizard"). This does not affect any gameplay, and is purely for making sure future code doesn't go all fucked up because someone accidentally misspells something
I only changed code that was spelt correctly, so if there actually is a typo somewhere, it isn't changed
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)
Allows all custom names in Character Settings to be reverted to either the default name or a random one, instead of only cyborg and bible names.
Allows picking a random religion in Character Settings. Changing your religion updates your bible and deity if applicable. It uses the religions and bible names that were already in chaplain spawning code. I've added deities to most of them, to save players having to figure them out themselves. I wasn't familiar with a lot of these religions and references so let me know if I've gotten something wrong.
Makes hair (which already was, I think?), underwear, facial hair, and undershirts all available to all genders.
Random character generation is not changed. Eventually, I want to remake random characters to look more believable, but that is out of scope.
Gender-specific preferences are an outdated trope that make the code harder to work with.
This change is also important as a total makeover of the preferences menu and the preference internals are going underway. It is significantly easier to work with when a preference can simply be a list of things you can choose, rather than having to depend on another preference to decide what they can show. While I could make this change at that time, it is also important that the new preferences menu keep parity, and avoid bikeshed on a trifling detail.
Removes all /datum/game_mode except dynamic. Eventually, all of mode and game_mode will be removed, and Dynamic will become an ingrained system. Every single other gamemode was unmaintained at best and poisoned other code at worst. Currently all tg servers run 24/7 Dynamic, so the time to act is now.

Security officers will now be paired up together in the same department, across departments. This means that, instead of 4 officers being split across 4 departments, there'll now be 2 groups of 2.
Late-join officers will be put into any department with only 1 officer. If none exist, the least populous department will be chosen, with their preference having priority.
Updates the maps to have more spawns for departmental officers. Delta previously had none, and now has some. Fixed a bug where MetaStation's security departmental officer was a supply one instead.
Removes the "random" departmental preference. All security officers are now given a department. The "none" preference still exists, but just to show that you don't care which department you're put into.
Updates the config to comment out SEC_START_BRIG. This is what the configuration was already on live servers.
This is something that should likely be test merged, but it mucks with savefiles. Luckily, the only damage it does is changing random departments to none, so if a TM is reverted, only that will have to be changed.
I was dumb in #56345 and committed a suggestion from a maintainer without actually checking what it did, leading to the part where you select what outfit you want in your preferences to not actually let you select an outfit.
This also removes the can_be_admin_equipped var from outfit datums, apparently it was supposed to be used for outfits that were only supposed to be spawned in certain ways or some nonsense, but nothing actually used it so bye bye
Done using this command sed -Ei 's/(\s*\S+)\s*\t+/\1 /g' code/**/*.dm
We have countless examples in the codebase with this style gone wrong, and defines and such being on hideously different levels of indentation. Fixing this to keep the alignment involves tainting the blames of code your PR doesn't need to be touching at all. And ultimately, it's hideous.
There are some files that this sed makes uglier. I can fix these when they are pointed out, but I believe this is ultimately for the greater good of readability. I'm more concerned with if any strings relied on this.

About The Pull Request
This PR removes intents and replaces them with a combat mode. An explanation of what this means can be found below
Major changes:
Disarm and Grab intents have been removed.
Harm/Help is now combat mode, toggled by F or 4 by default
The context/verb/popup menu now only works when you do shift+right-click
Right click is now disarm, both in and out of combat mode.
Grabbing is now on ctrl-click.
If you're in combat mode, and are currently grabbing/pulling someone, and ctrl-click somewhere else, it will not release the grab (To prevent misclicks)
Minor interaction changes:
Right click to dissasemble tables, racks, filing cabinets (When holding the right tool to do so)
Left click to stunbaton, right click to harmbaton
Right click to tip cows
Right click to malpractice surgery
Right click to hold people at gunpoint (if youre holding a gun)
Why It's Good For The Game
Intents heavily cripple both the code and the UI design of interactions. While I understand that a lot of people will dislike this PR as they are used to intents, they are one of our weakest links in terms of explaining to players how to do specific things, and require a lot more keypresses to do compared to this.
As an example, martial arts can now be done without having to juggle 1 2 3 and 4 to switch intents quickly.
As some of you who saw the first combat mode PR, the context menu used to be disabled in combat mode. In this version it is instead on shift-right click ensuring that you can always use it in the same way.
In this version, combat mode also no longer prevents you from attacking with items when you would so before, as this was something that was commonly complained about.
The full intention of this shift in control scheme is that right click will become "secondary interaction" for items, which prevents some of the awkward juggling we have now with item modes etcetera.

negative quirks were impossible to create because there was zero nuance between how bad traits were, for example if you got light drinker and family heirloom, two relatively easy quirks to manage, you can get freerunner. This meant a ton of neutral quirks had to be neutral quirks because giving them even -1 points would make it too easy to get good traits. I've bumped up most quirks by x4 to allow for more nuance between what quirks are actually worth. With some of them being lowered (Like family heirloom and light drinker) as theyre not really supposed to be worth so much for so little.
quick log of changes for CB:
- Every quirk not mentioned had it's point value increased x4 (e.g. 1 -> 4, 4 -> 16)
- mime / clown fan is 2 points (change of -50% with this pr)
- musician is 2 points (change of -50% with this pr)
- depression goes from -1 to -3 points (change of -25% with this pr)
- nyctophobiagoes from -1 to -3 points (change of -25% with this pr)
- junkie from -2 to -6 points (change of 25% with this pr)
- frail from -2 to -6 points (change of 25% with this pr)
- smoker from -2 to -6 points (change of 25% with this pr)
- unstable -2 to -10 points (change of 25% with this pr)
About The Pull Request
Honestly, I'm not sure this is the... Correct solution? But people more familiar with this will likely show me da wae.
Prohibits creating names that can't actually be spoken in-character due to chat filters by adding CHAT_FILTER_CHECKs to the procs that handle sanitising them.
For admin-utilised renaming procs, they'll be given a simple alert box to warn them their chosen name contains words prohibited by the IC chat filter and be allowed to confirm or cancel out.
Why It's Good For The Game
If you can't speak the name IC, chances are the name shouldn't be allowed at all. Players may occasionally be forced to ahelp certain names because they contain words prohibited in chat filters.
Adds TGUI-based alerts to replace the old tgalert system. Replaces all uses of tgalert with tgui_alert except for one, the 'Report Issue' button, as people were (understandably) concerned that this button using tgui will prevent a tgui bug from being easily reported.
These windows have a nice little progress bar indicator of how much time they have left, and will automatically close themselves after this time elapses.

A new option has been added to the AI display radial menu alongside random, "Portrait"
It opens a small menu that lets you peruse all of the portraits and select one as your display.
This can let avid artists draw exactly what they want their AI to be like, and not-so-avid artists to bring tears to my eyes.
default_features and mutant_bodyparts have been used ambivelently since a long time, so I'm merging the two together and replacing relevant 'in' list access operations with '[ ]' for performance while I'm at it.
Implements the ?. operator, replacing code like A && A.B with A?.B
BYOND Ref:
When reading A?.B, it's equivalent to A && A.B except that A is only evaluated once, even if it's a complex expression like a proc call.
Removes the antennae part of the original moth wing sprites and adds them back as a mutant bodypart.
Seeing as they were then separated I made it a preference so that players can choose which antennae sprite they would like to have, instead of being restricted solely to the ones built into the wing sprite.
Adds a recommended fps option. Setting fps to -1 now sets client.fps to RECOMMENDED_FPS.
Sets recommended fps as the default option for new players.
Current value for recommended fps is 40.
Fixes#51787Fixes#44981
Species code is the fucking worst.
Lizard tails and spikes are broken outside of admin intervention and neither work nor apply when spawning into the game from the main menu.
Functionality was broken in #49062
Functionality was further broken in #49771
This code makes my soul hurt. I don't have the time or patience to refactor it. This should work around all the functionality broken in the above two PRs until such a time as someone fixes this mess.
If anyone does that, may God have mercy on their soul, for this code has none.
