## About The Pull Request
Signals were initially only usable with component listeners, which while
no longer the case has lead to outdated documentation, names, and a
similar location in code.
This pr pulls the two apart. Partially because mso thinks we should, but
also because they really aren't directly linked anymore, and having them
in this midstate just confuses people.
[Renames comp_lookup to listen_lookup, since that's what it
does](102b79694f)
[Moves signal procs over to their own
file](33d07d01fd)
[Renames the PREQDELETING and QDELETING comsigs to drop the parent bit
since they can hook to more then just comps
now](335ea4ad08)
[Does something similar to the attackby comsigs (PARENT ->
ATOM)](210e57051d)
[And finally passes over the examine
signals](65917658fb)
## Why It's Good For The Game
Code makes more sense, things are better teased apart, s just good imo

refactor: Pulled apart the last vestiges of names/docs directly linking
signals to components

This tracks the seconds per tick of a subsystem, however note that it is
not completely accurate, as subsystems can be delayed, however it's
useful to have this number as a multiplier or ratio, so that if in
future someone changes the subsystem wait time code correctly adjusts
how fast it applies effects
regexes used
git grep --files-with-matches --name-only 'DT_PROB' | xargs -l sed -i

's/delta_time/seconds_per_tick/g'
BYOND is inconsistent about whether it treats these as `"key" = value`,
or `src.key = value`, or something else. We suspect that this behavior
is fluctuating in 515, and given that this proc has been causing immense
overtime, that it might be the culprit of some recent complains of
recurring lag. And if it's not, then we at least have more consistent
code.
## About The Pull Request
status panel for carbons and humans instead of hardcoding stuff, uses
signals (borg material storage too)
removes combat mode indicator in status tab from xenomorphs which have a
button for it, but adds it to simplemobs, since they dont have a visual
indicator
adds status tab stuff to basic mobs, i think they were missing
everything by accident
offsets unique status tab stuff for all mobs by a single line
the delay between updates is a third of what it was before, mainly to
make shuttle timers more accurate (approved by kyler)
## Why It's Good For The Game
much cleaner code, makes future implementations easy

qol: you can see your combat mode status as a simple or basic mob, and
you can see your health as a basic mob
qol: status panel updates three times as fast
/🆑
So i left over some basic `/whatever/proc/format` uses in the original
PR this fixes it.
Notable exceptions to the rule:
- Paths in add_verb/remove_verb, we need full path instead of a name
there to access verb metadata so we can't use proc ref macros there.
- regex.Replace, found out that it does not accept call by name. Instead
i added new REGEX_REPLACE_HANDLER so we can at least try to mark these.
There's still leftover global procs that do not use GLOBAL_PROC_REF but
they functionally equivalent so that's for later.
I don't see any reasonable way to grep for this. But if you got any
ideas please share.
Makes the code compatible with 515.1594+
Few simple changes and one very painful one.
Let's start with the easy:
* puts call behind `LIBCALL` define, so call_ext is properly used in 515
* Adds `NAMEOF_STATIC(_,X)` macro for nameof in static definitions since
src is now invalid there.
* Fixes tgui and devserver. From 515 onward the tmp3333{procid} cache
directory is not appened to base path in browser controls so we don't
check for it in base js and put the dev server dummy window file in
actual directory not the byond root.
* Renames the few things that had /final/ in typepath to ultimate since
final is a new keyword
And the very painful change:
`.proc/whatever` format is no longer valid, so we're replacing it with
new nameof() function. All this wrapped in three new macros.
`PROC_REF(X)`,`TYPE_PROC_REF(TYPE,X)`,`GLOBAL_PROC_REF(X)`. Global is
not actually necessary but if we get nameof that does not allow globals
it would be nice validation.
This is pretty unwieldy but there's no real alternative.
If you notice anything weird in the commits let me know because majority
was done with regex replace.
@tgstation/commit-access Since the .proc/stuff is pretty big change.

* Moves spawners and decals to a different init/delete scheme
Rather then fully creating and then immediately deleting these things,
we instead do the bare minimum.
This is faster, if in theory more fragile. We should be safe since any
errors should be caught in compile since this is very close to a
"static" action. It does mean these atoms cannot use signals, etc.
* Potentially saves init time, mostly cleans up a silly pattern
We use sleeps and INVOKE_ASYNC to ensure that handing back turfs doesn't
block a space reservation, but this by nature consumes up to the
threshold and a bit more of whatever working block we were in.
This is silly. Should just be a subsystem, so I made it one, with
support for awaiting its finish if you want to
* Optimizes garbage/proc/Queue slightly
Queue takes about 1.6 seconds to process 26k items right now.
The MASSIVE majority of this time is spent on using \ref
This is because \ref returns a string, and that string requires being
inserted into the global cache of strings we store
What I'm doing is caching the result of ANY \ref on the datum it's
applied to. This ensures previous uses will never decay from the string
tree.
This saves about 0.2 seconds of init
* Object Window Niceties
Alright. I got bored and polished up the object/alt click window.
It had a few issues:
First, we generated all our images in bulk, as soon as requested
Second, the caching was global, despite only working on a client to
client basis
Third, we only generated up to 10 images. This could be fine, but the
javascript code will continuiously rerender assuming unrendered images
will come eventually, and they well, weren't. This caused MASSIVE
clientside lag
Fourth and finally, I did not like how moving away from the viewed turf
lagged behind, in sync with the stat tab update. Looked bad.
I've resolved all these.
I solved the first three issues by reworking how obj images were
generatated and managed.
Rather then storing a basic cache on the subsystem, and doing all the
image generation at once, we queue up image generation as we like, and
generate images inside a new processing subsystem fire.
This isn't the best solution, since it still eats cpu somewhat, but it's
a whole lot better then the other options, outside either removing the
need to getflat, or somehow predicting what items a client will want to
see
I've started storing three bits of info. First, a list of all the
objects we currently want to display.
Second, a list of atom -> image html
Third, a list of atoms to imageify.
This information is stored on a datum on /client, since I want this to
have a lifetime linked to well, clients.
I've used this datum to solve that fourth bit, using a component I made
for parallax a bit back. This lets me react to our client's mob, and
update the tab linked to that, rather then on a subsystem call by call
basis.
That's about it.

i originally changed the refresh rate of the turf tab in the stat panel from 10, to 2, because i felt like it wouldn't be that intensive on clients. apparently it is. now we know!
refactors the status panel to utilize the tgui/byond communication APIs instead of passing along href data, as well as converts the entirety of it into a datum/tgui_window

* Adds MC initialization stages. Earlier stages can fire while later ones init.
Removes TICK_LIMIT_MC_INIT config for barely doing anything to speed up init and being inconvenient to work with if fires and inits can happen at the same time.
makes most updating stat panel tabs update once every 4 seconds instead of 4 deciseconds, but switching tabs instantly updates statpanel data for you. also makes examining a turf make flat icons for a maximum of 10 contents instead of 30 because its ridiculous to call getFuckingFlatIcon() wrappers that many times. also makes SSfluids not have SS_TICKER and updates its wait accordingly because theres no reason for it to be a ticker subsystem
the mc tab updates every 2 seconds unless someone has the pref enabled to refresh it quickly because SOME UNILLUMINATED LEMONS absolutely must watch overtime spikes in real time
statpanels can take between 1-3% of masters total processing time at very high pop, which is silly considering theres no need for someone to know any of the data updated accurate to less than half of a second. The only reason it needed to update so fast was because it looked awful when switching tabs, which will only be updated on the next fire. now switching tabs updates data instantly so theres no need to update the rest of the data quickly.
also makes each stat tab update into its own proc so we can tell how much each tab update costs
Part of my document on duplicating verb panel functionality so at some point in the far, far future we may be rid of it. you can read more here.
hackmd.io/tJ5H3opRQiG1GCN1sP142w
The other thing the status panel needs to do is send time dilation to the tgui chat. Having messed around with tgui chat, I am very confident i'm going to need stylemistake or mothblocks help me out with that one, it's so beyond my level it isn't even funny.
I know this is a VERY long description for a very small change but expect more of this in the future
* Improve code in statpanel.dm
* Improve phrasing in preferences_toggles.dm
* Move "Interviews" under the "Tickets" tab

About The Pull Request
Ports and improves my interview system that has been previously used in the summer ball and toolbox tournament events. Allows for a 'softer' panic bunker, wherein players who fall below the required living time limit can still join the server and be restricted to filling out a questionnaire. Upon completing the questionnaire, the player may be allowed into the server by an administrator. If the application is approved, they get a notification that they will be reconnected and upon reconnecting will have all verbs as they usually would. If the application is denied the user is put on a cooldown after which they may submit a new questionnaire.
Players who are being interviewed (herein interviewees) have no verbs other than those required for the stat panel to function, as well as a verb to pull up the interview panel. Interviews do not persist through restarts, and the ability to join that is granted by an accepted interview is only valid for the duration of that round.
Open interviews are listed under a new 'interviews' tab for admins, which is VERY similar to the existing tickets tab.
Below is what a player who is flagged as an interviewee will see when they join the server. They can do nothing but respond to the questionnaire or leave.

This is what an administrator sees after an interview is submitted, they will also see a corresponding message within their chatbox, and an age-old BWOINK when an interview is submitted.

The interviews tab, which is similar to the tickets menu. You can open the interview manager panel to view all active (including non-submitted) interviews, queued (submitted) interviews, and closed interviews.

FAQ:
What happens if someone submits an interview when no admins are on? It's treated like adminhelps are, the message gets sent to TGS to be dispatched off to configured end-points (like Discord or IRC), and the user is notified that their interview was handled this way.
Can you configure the questions? Yes, in config/ there is now a interviews.txt file in which the welcome message and the individual questions can be set and modified.
Can this be turned on and off during a round? Yes, it can be toggled like the panic bunker. It requires the panic bunker to be raised in order to function.
Can interviewees have further questions asked to them? Yes, if you admin-pm them, which is possible using regular means or a conveniently placed button on the interview UI, they will be able to respond to the message.
Technical details
To use the interview system you must have the panic bunker enabled, this is an additional setting for the panic bunker. It can be set through the PANIC_BUNKER_INTERVIEW setting in config.txt, or alternatively enabled in-game as prompted during the panic bunker toggling process. It also can be toggled on its own using a verb added for this purpose, Toggle PB Interviews found under the server tab. These new actions are included in the logging for the panic bunker. I have also added a reporting stat to the world topic status keyword, which now reports if the interview system is on using the keyword interviews.
As mentioned above, for server operators, configure the questions and welcome message in config/interviews.txt.
Note to maintainers and those with big brains I had to add a call to init_verbs on the stat panel window being ready because seemingly a race condition exists wherein the add_verb of the 'view my interview' verb doesn't cause a refresh of the tabs (and therefore doesn't show the 'Interview' tab) when running in dream daemon but running it directly from visual studio code properly shows the tab. Adding a init_verbs call directly after adding the verb didn't seem to help.
A note for downstreams
If you don't use the HTML stat panel (which may not be a bad thing) then you will have to do some conversion from the HTML stat panel stuff used here to the old style stat panels. It's pretty trivial, but just be aware of that. You can see how I used to use the old stat panels in my PR from the summer ball, here, which should be helpful.
Why It's Good For The Game
This allows for a softer version of the panic bunker which impedes the flow of malicious players while allowing genuine players a chance to enter a round to gain enough time to not be affected by the panic bunker's restrictions.
