## About The Pull Request
Further continous organizing and cleaning the Icons folder. There are
still some minior nitpicks left to do, but I reached my daily sanity
expenses limit again, and the faster these get in the less issues for
both me and others later. Also cleans some mess I caused by my blindness
last PR.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Saner spriters = better sprites
## About The Pull Request
Converts Goliaths to the basic mob framework and gives them some new
moves because I can't leave things well enough alone.
I am planning on touching all the lavaland fauna and then maybe even the
icebox ones if I haven't got bored. The Golaith is the first because it
is iconic.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JNcKvMwT4-Q
Here's me getting killed by one as a demonstration. Despite my poor
performance I would contend that they aren't a _lot_ more dangerous, but
they are a little more dangerous.
The chief difference here is that they have two new attacks which they
will only use in response to being attacked.
If fired at from range, they will target the attacker with a line of
tentacles (it doesn't track you, so is easily sidestepped).
If attacked in melee, they will surround _themselves_ with tentacles, on
a longer cooldown.
Something else you may notice in this video: I discovered that basic
mobs are actually _too smart_ to be Lavaland fauna.
Typically (unlike their old form) a mob on our new AI system is smart
enough to attack someone _the moment they come into range_ rather than
only checking on predictable ticks, which would make using the Crusher
an essentially unviable prospect.
To counteract this, Goliaths now have a delayed attack component which
gives you a visual warning and short duration to get out of range before
they swing at you. I will probably put this on all mining fauna that get
reworked, it wouldn't be a terrible thing to put on other mobs to be
honest.
Other changes: The goliath stun is now a status effect with _buckles_
you to the tentacle as if grabbed, as well as its previous effects.
While this seems purely worse, any nearby helpers can now help-click on
you to instantly remove the debuff.
Experiencing the effect of a Lobstrosity Rush Gland makes you immune to
being grabbed by tentacles and an implanted one will automatically
trigger and free you if you are hit, and the explosive effect of
Brimdust also causes the tentacle to retract (although you'd need to
take damage for this to happen). Using the tools of the land, you can
make these creatures less threatening.
The ability for a Goliath to chain-apply the ability has now also been
reduced, it won't refresh its duration if you are hit when already
buckled.
When not occupied hounding miners, Goliaths will intermittently dig up
the asteroid sand and eat any worms that this produces.
I also made some new sprites for riding a Goliath because they've been
broken since the Lavaland mob update and also kind of were ugly before
then anyway:

Other code changes:
- I made an element which only lets an attached object move every x
seconds. This is because Goliaths are far too slow to use the speed
system (the glide just looks bugged as hell) but one thing I am invested
in when converting these is to make sure that they share the same
behaviour when player or AI controlled. This is disabled while you're
riding them because it was interminably slow.
- The Goliath tentacle trail uses a supertype object now shared with the
Meteor Heart which did something kind of similar.
## Why It's Good For The Game
It begins the process of moving one of our larger subsets of NPCs onto
the newer framework for NPC behaviour.
It adds a little bit more life to an iconic but slightly uninteresting
foe which mostly just walked at you slowly.
This PR contains a few components I expect to apply more widely to other
mobs in the future.
## Changelog
🆑
refactor: Goliaths now use the Basic Mob framework, please report any
unusual behaviour.
add: Goliaths learned a couple of new attacks which they will use in
self-defence.
balance: Help-clicking a miner grabbed by Goliath tentacles will
immediately free them, as will the effect of several items you can
scavenge from around Lavaland.

## About The Pull Request
This PR refactors mind language holders into non-existence
As a result, `update_atom_languages` is no longer necessary
Mind-bound languages are transferred via `/mind/proc/transfer_to`
Species changing no longer deletes and re-creates the mob's language
holder, allowing them to keep any languages they have.
Species languages are sourced from `LANGUAGE_SPECIES` now, meaning they
are removed when they change species. If the mob is not a human with a
species datum, these are effectively just atom level languages.
Makes a bunch of unit tests to ensure language transfer over certain
events works as intended
## Why It's Good For The Game
Mobs with minds having two independent language holders results in a
good few bugs, and simply doesn't make sense when we have sources
(`LANGUAGE_MIND`).
Instead of tracking two language holders, we can simply use sources
better and only track one.
This means that the language holder you start with is your language
holder, period. It doesn't get deleted or re-instantiated or whatever.
## Changelog

## About The Pull Request
Fixes#76484
Then I noticed some weird stuff which slipped through the PR and poked
at that too.
- Spiderlings and Spiders once more have names ending in (###)
- Removed an unused property on Spiderlings.
- Rewrote the descriptions for a bunch of web-abilities and web-objects
to be clearer and have better capitalisation.
- Refactored the "Web Carcass" ability to not extend from "lay web" as
it didn't need to perform most of that behaviour.
- Also I renamed it and made the description give you a hint about why
you would want to instantly spawn a statue.
- The web effigy now despawns at the same rate as the ability cools down
so you're not dumping spider statues all over the place.
- I made spiderlings move at about the same speed as humans except if
they're on webs in which case they're still pretty fast.
To be honest I am not certain an instant statue spawning button is great
to begin with and I didn't even know it was added to the game but I am
not interested in messing much with the balance for now.
This made me look at spiderlings enough that I'm going to try and make a
new sprite for them that isn't awful.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Lets you differentiate individual spiders a little bit.
Makes usage of abilities clearer.
## Changelog
🆑
balance: Guard spider web statues despawn as the ability comes back off
cooldown.
balance: Spiderlings now only move at light speed if they're on webs,
stay safe little guys.
fix: Spiders once again have random numbers after their names.

adds the Vorpal Scythe, a special chaplain null rod variant, replacing
the Reaper Scythe, a not so special null rod variant.
When you choose the vorpal scythe, it comes as a shard that you implant
into your arm, similar to a cursed katana.
Once implanted, you can draw it at any time like an arm implant.
However, sheathing it again presents some problems. (Also, implanting
the organ gives you ``TRAIT_MORBID``, which I'll explain in a bit)
The Vorpal Scythe has 10 force, one of the weakest null rod variants for
force that isn't a joke null rod. However, it has exceptional armor pen
and also has 2 tiles of reach. So quite unique.
It also has a special beheading ability when you right-click someone.
This borrows some code from amputation shears, functioning pretty
similarly, except with a few additional ways to speed up the action and
restrictions. (It takes 15 seconds baseline to behead someone standing
and conscious, and speeds up or slows down based on factors such as
incapacitation and whether or not our scythe is already empowered)
When you successfully behead someone with a mind, the vorpal scythe
gains 20 force and can be safely stowed and drawn for 2 minutes.
Performing more death knells like this will reset the timer.
If it has not performed its 'death knell', or you haven't hit a living
mob, then it will cause severe damage to you if you ever try and stow it
(or its forced back into your arm). Just hitting a mob with the scythe
will sate it for 4 minutes. Unless it is a non-player monkey. Horrible
things. Just hitting mobs does not reset the timer on empowerment.
What this means is that the chaplain may be more hesitant to simply draw
their weapon on people. It also means that potentially, the chaplain
will not always have magic immunity, since they may end up stowing the
weapon away and be reluctant to draw it on a whim without either taking
damage for sheathing it without hitting something, or dealing with
having one less hand up until they can.
While empowerment only happens when you behead mobs with a mind,
beheading monkeyhumans and other mindless humans subtypes causes their
heads to become haunted! It's mostly harmless and largely just SpOoKy.
We don't want heads with actual players in them to go floating off to
space. (Does not work on monkey heads for sanity reasons)
When you have the Morbid trait, you think creepy stuff is cool and hate
saving peoples lives. You get a mood boost from graverobbing, autopsies,
dissections, amputations (including beheadings with the scythe and
amputations with the shears) and revival surgery. However, you get a
mood penalty when you tend wounds on the living, as well as a hefty
penalty when you perform CPR or defibrillate someone. I was thinking
Victor Frankenstein when I was choosing which actions had an associated
moodlet, so anything that I might have missed would be appreciated.
You also count as potentially cool with regards to haunted objects.
Ghosts think you're neat. (Revenants probably will still kill you if
they had the chance)
## About The Pull Request
This adds ghost orbit popups for the following:
- Macrobombs (or stacked microbombs) being triggered.
- HFR Meltdowns.
- Living players about to be gored by an emagged organ harvester.
- Nuclear devices being armed.
- Doomsday devices.
- Blob hosts bursting.
This also modifies the following ghost orbit popups:
- Toy hot potatoes will no longer cause a popup when armed.
- Normal spider eggs will not flash the byond window, only special egg
types.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Gives more gathering spots/information to deadchat. Let no entertaining
moment in this game go unobserved.
Spider eggs flashing your window for every single egg produced makes
alt-tabbing suck. I saw some guy on the forums complaining about it and
thought "huh yeah I guess he's got a point that pisses me off too" so
here we are.

## About The Pull Request
This standardizes fugitive hunter IDs, making all hunter packs use the
same subtype and giving them to hunters who would spawn with no ID at
all.
The badass flaming ID color that the OG Bounty Hunter team got are now
the standard for fugitive hunter IDs. Additionally, these IDs now come
with a radical skull trim.
(Spacepol Officers don't get the badass flaming skull ID, and instead
get a more modest Police Officer ID).
**These IDs come with access, too. Airlocks, bolt buttons, shuttle
controls, and shutters on all of the hunter shuttles now require a
hunter's ID to operate.**
While I was in the area doing mapping stuff to get the accesses in
place, I made a few other very minor changes to the shuttles. These
include:
- The Bounty Hunter shuttle now has an oxygen dispenser. Two walls have
been moved to make space.
- The Russian Hunter shuttle now gets enough oxygen tanks to share with
everyone.
- The Psyker Hunter spawners now have proper spawner menu text. This was
due to duplicate-but-not-really subtypes existing, and me mistakenly
putting the wrong ones there in a previous PR.
- The cut ai wire helpers from the Russian/Psyker shuttles have been
extended to the Bounty/Spacepol shuttles.
- Every hunter shuttle now has a shuttle pinpointer on it somewhere, and
is no longer exclusive to a single Bounty Hunter's loadout.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Some of the hunter IDs would spawn without trims or coloration, and some
hunters wouldn't spawn with IDs at all. Now, everyone gets a credible,
cool-looking ID that lets everyone know what you're here to do at a
glance.
One of these is a crazed larper with an unregistered firearm, the other
is a certified bounty hunter.
As for the hunter access, it's pretty nonsensical that anyone can just
walk into the hunter ship and set up shop. At least the pirates get
turrets! Not to mention, it's hard to balance or give hunters new
equipment in good conscience when their entire domain is public-access
and anything they can't carry is considered forfeit to the crew. Now it
can be used as a base of operations, storage area, etc. more securely.
Locking down the shuttle with accesses isn't going to stop a determined
gamer with a toolset, but it'll at least make it more interesting and an
actual risk. If the fugitives want to try and loot/hijack the shuttle,
it will require the effort of taking down one of their hunters first.
While hunters stand out for the differences/imbalances between each
group, I don't see the shuttle pinpointer as something that contributes
positively to the OG bounty hunter's uniqueness. There's no reason why
the other hunters shouldn't also be able to track their ship.

## About The Pull Request
Short and simple, just converts the changeling's headslug (that ability
they get that lets them infest another body) into a basic mob. Also
touches up some of the code, as well as split up the code such that the
headslug resides in the basic mobs folder, while the eggs are in the
changeling's antagonist folder, rather than one megafile for both.
No AI because this is 100% a player-controlled mob, it never exists in
any other context. No UpdatePaths for the same reason as well, this
shouldn't (and really doesn't) exist on maps because its sole purpose is
player-driven.

## Why It's Good For The Game
Knocks another one off the list, potentially clears up some janky code
with how this operated and just beautifies it overall. I also
standardized the name "headslug" in any applicable context because the
name "headcrab" is quite confusing. Some other code still refers to it
as headcrab/crab, but that's whatever, at least the paths are a-okay
now.
Also opens the door in case someone really wants these to be AI-powered?
That sounds really weird and I don't really support that idea, but it's
indeed possible.

Grow and regrow, the life cycle.

## About The Pull Request
Fugitive Hunter spawning now works a lot more like it does for Pirates.
Rather than just using the spawners, it collects candidates from a ghost
poll, and leaves the remaining spawners to be used if any are left.
## Why It's Good For The Game
The only way this event gathered candidates was through the
notify_ghosts that hunter spawners threw on Initialize(). This easily
flies under the radar (and I think also stopped working after
lazyloading was implemented??), contributing to how infrequently hunter
rolls are taken.
The hunters are an important part of fugitives as a whole, so making
sure they're properly filled out is good.
Closes#74625.

## About The Pull Request
This is part of a pass I'm working on doing where I go through and
remove instances of antag gear outside of their normal context. This is
mostly going to involve replacing space/Lavaland ruin gear with
something close to the same power level but not distinctly something
only antags should be able to get. I want to keep ruins rewarding but I
don't want explicit antag gear to be something you can obtain without
needing an uplink.
The first part of this is me removing the MODSuit from the syndicate
operative corpse. The new one drops a turtleneck, a syndicate gas mask,
and gripper gloves.
## Why It's Good For The Game
It's my opinion that antag gear should probably stay in antag hands
unless you manage to kill one or steal an uplink. The main impetus for
this was a discussion I had a while back about how blood red hardsuits
used to _just_ be an antag thing. I kind of miss that general feeling of
paranoia that came from seeing someone wearing it, as opposed to seeing
it these days and just thinking "Yeah, it's probably someone who got it
from space".
In this specific instance, Syndicate MODSuits are pretty strong anyway
and, regardless of the low odds of getting one, I really don't think it
should be available as loot off a fairly easy-to-kill mob.
## Changelog

## About The Pull Request
The autolathe free golem shells created on the free golem ruin now
create free golems rather than servant golems.
On the backend, this was done by delegating the responsbility for what
to do with the "owner" to the spawned subtype.
Now the three golem ghost spawners are:
- Default, which creates a normal free golem.
- Adamantine, the "leaders" on the free golem ruin, who get special
vocal cords.
- Servant, which enslaves itself to whoever finished building the shell.
Previously the servant subtype did not do anything at all, but now it
holds all of the relevant behaviour and the other two simply don't care
who their creator was.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Makes item does what it was supposed to, not sure how long it has been
broken but it has been a while.
Makes raiding free golem ruin for autolathe design create free rather
than loyal golems, which could backfire.
Free golems constructed in the ruin by other free golems are no longer
forced into a hierarchy, which can be a good or bad thing depending on
the temperament of whoever made them but might reduce the incidence of
one guy ordering everyone else to tide cargo.

This PR implements this design document:
https://hackmd.io/@Y6uzGFDGSXKRaWDNicSiEg/BkRr176st
Put briefly, this will remove every existing golem subtype and
consolidate golems into a single species with cool new sprites.
NOT implemented from that PR is the ability to eat Telecrystals, I
couldn't come up with an appropriate visual that can stack with the
existing ones, but that should be a reasonably trivial add for a future
artist & developer.
New Golems have a food-based mechanic where their hunger decays pretty
quickly and can only be replenished by eating minerals. They start
moving slower as they get hungrier, until eventually they become
completely immobilised and need to be rescued.
Eating different kinds of minerals will visually change your sprite and
give you a special effect in a similar way to old golems, but temporary.
While transformed, you can't eat any other kind of mineral which would
transform you (but can still consume glass).
To see the full list of effects, look at the hackmd above.
In service of these sprites working I have refactored the
`species/offset_features` feature by killing it and delegating that
responsibility to limbs instead. Rather than applying an offset to items
due to your species, it is due to your weird head or arms. This makes
overall more sense to me, but it inflates the code changes in this PR
somewhat.
It doesn't make a lot of sense to atomise unfortunately because that
code also seemed to be entirely unused until I tried to use it in this
PR, so you wouldn't be able to tell if my changes broke anything. I
might make a downstream sad by doing this.
All of the actual numbers in this PR are made up and only loosely
tested, it will need some testmerges to gather feedback about whether it
sucks or not.
Other relevant changes:
I reworked how bioscrambling works based off bodypart bodytypes, to
automatically exclude golem limbs in either direction. There's really no
way to have those work on humans or vice versa. Organs still fly though.
This PR demotes the Psyker-gang from a pirate team to a fugitive hunting
team. For more information on Psyker pirates, please refer to #71650.
Stuff this also does in the process:
- Gives fugitive hunters their own subfolder in the fugitives antagonist
folder, moves some of their stuff into hunter-specific files rather than
interlacing it with the rest of the fugitive code.
- Moves the hunter backstories to defines, to make reading things easier
while I made this change.
- Exhaustively moves everything related to psykers from being
pirate-oriented to hunter-oriented (typepaths, locations where stuff is
defined, etc. There should be nothing left behind related to psykers in
anything pirate related). (Tell me if I missed anything somehow).
They still get their ship (they even get their own custom
psyker-friendly prisoner capsule). They still have a bunch of lethally
chambered firearms. They're the same gunrunning nutcases they were
before, just as bounty hunters.
To assist with basic tasks such as "getting to the station" or "figuring
out who the fuck we're supposed to be kidnapping", the psykers have
"acquired" a Seer to assist them. They can _try_ to coordinate the
psykers and lead them through situations where their impairments put
them at too great a disadvantage. If you're one of the psykers, make
sure to keep this guy alive at all costs!
Why are they called Shikaris instead of hunters? Mariam-Webster says
it's a Hindi word for some kind of hunter/tracker, and it sounded like
something a bunch of space-junkies would call themselves because they
think it sounds cool.
They now also come with a slightly different motivation, now that they
can't directly threaten the crew for money. Psyker hunters now arrive
tasked with a dirty kidnapping job, payment rendered in GORE.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Psykers aren't up to the challenge of being pirates. They're bogged down
by a number of fundamental issues that render them unable to do anything
expected of pirates. As it currently stands, they present about as much
threat as you would expect from three blind junkies with guns.
Removing them wholesale would be kind of lame. They can function as a
bunch of chaotic-neutral gun-toting space-maniacs, but for the purposes
of gameplay, keeping them as pirates would be a waste of their talents.
Moving them to a lower-stakes role not only moves them to a niche they
are more capable of filling, but gives players a more lax environment to
get a grip on playing psyker without being overwhelmed.
Giving them a seeing-eye role should bring a more unique dynamic to how
psykers are played (that is, some semblance of organization rather than
blind flailing), and should help get over the mechanical hurdles of
being a psyker until better solutions can be made. It shouldn't be too
big of an impact on balance considering the psyker gang only has three
spawns, while most hunter packs have 4+.

## 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.

## About The Pull Request
- Traveller's rest had two airlock cyclelinks that did not work, as one
of them was on a windoor, so I have removed them. Not playerfacing.
- The mob spawner spawned without clothes and runtiming, as instead of
an outfit, it had the roboticist's jumpsuit added. I have made a new
outfit and used that in a new spawner. Might be too specific of a
spawner though.
- I have also added a dedicated roboticist spawner, which uses a full
outfit. I originally wanted to use this one, but I realized, making this
spawn with robotics ID and gear is a pretty big balance change, so I
elected not to use that, but I have added it anyways, as it should be
useful in the future (and I have already made the sprite).

/🆑
## About The Pull Request
Turns out there was no verification to ensure that you weren't already
in the process of trying to join a ghost role, when clicking on a ghost
role spawner.
That resulted in people being able to double-click on a spawner and
basically, trying to spawn twice... Or thrice... Or even more than that
if they're fast.
Of course, that's not a good thing, so I made it so you can only try to
spawn one time at a time, which includes only getting one prompt at a
time. That includes ALL spawners, because I know that bug will otherwise
pop up at some point from someone thinking they're clever.
I added a CRASH() for the handling of ckey-less ghosts, in case someone
tries to do another subtype that somehow manages to bypass all of the
checks I already added. That way, they'll know if they fuck up.
I also made a second uses check considering there's stoplags in the
is_banned() check.
Fixes https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/issues/73619.

## About The Pull Request
Quite a lot of mobs had faction defines as a string, which always has a
chance for error. For example, the clown mob spawner had their faction
written as "clown", when the official faction name was "clowns", and a
define existed for it anyways! This PR moves every single string based
factions over here. No references or special role factions. Hopefully I
didn't miss anything.
I also moved a global define used for picking your uplink provider's
flavour to the only file that used it, datum_traitor.dm, and renamed
them a bit to avoid confusion.
I have also noticed that the mimic faction was assigned to the petrified
player with += instead of |=. |= would ensure no duplicate factions, so
I have changed it.
Future improvement:
I have noticed that there is a lot of bloat with factions that contain
only one or two entries (examples: gnomes, floating eyeballs, penguins,
the pet lizards), and some always appear in pairs (vines and plants, the
rare exceptions being killer tomatoes and strange reagent spawned pine
trees), but trimming consolidating them is a matter for a different
time.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Makes assigning factions a bit less error prone.

## About The Pull Request
So, we have this whole system in the code to allow all mob typepaths,
species typepaths, and even antag datum typepaths to have a set policy
But we like, don't use it? For some reason we rather set a million
`get_policy` calls than use this. They're all stuck in the policy verb
and not sent to the player in any obvious.
(Also, it's super fragile, which I hate. Change the typepath and the
policy silently fails. Maybe someone can change that afterwards)
This PR updates that. All antag datums will check in `on_gain` for
policy to show to the player if there's any.
It doesn't solve the entire issue. Mob policy and species policy is not
conveyed to the player in any way BESIDES the policy verb which no one
uses. So people have no idea that it's a thing. But it helps a bit.

## About The Pull Request
This PR converts giant spiders into basic mobs and resultingly fixes
#37793
They _should_ have the same behaviour as their simple mob versions
although I can't verify that their movement speeds are _exactly_ the
same. It should at least be pretty close.
A quirk of spiders is that they had a pretty large `move_to_delay` which
made them slow in the hands of AI (because it would just pause for ages
between taking steps) and faster in the hands of players, and they often
appear in both forms so I had to implement this as a speed modifier
based on player control.
Additionally this is the first basic mob which can be set on fire.
This is currently implemented as a var on `mob/living/basic` but I know
there was some annoyance at adding the environment tolerances as vars on
there so if desired I can try and extract it out, I'm just not sure how
easy it will be.
Something else I noticed is that spiders seem to take stamina damage
from bug spray... but stamina damage does nothing to either simple _or_
basic mobs. I have left it in for now in case I am missing something,
and rebalancing it to do something else would be more like a balance
change.
Oh also I killed the `mob/basic/retaliate` folder because that isn't a
classification that needs to exist or makes sense.
## Why It's Good For The Game
We don't want to use simple mobs any more.
Sergeant Araneus can finally actually be a spider, instead of being a
bat.

## About The Pull Request
By means of making a particularly popular ghost role (do NOT put
catgirls on icebox bro you don't know the consequences) I have
discovered a strange bug where despite any of the checks that are in
place, it will still attempt to spawn more people than the role should
allow. I've found the likely caused to be that a lot of people are
clicking the role then clicking spawn at once, and the spawner simply
does not have time to tell everyone "wait no you can't do that" before
it deletes itself from running out of uses.
The solution? Even easier than the reservation thing: Subtract uses
**BEFORE** spawning the mob, as spawning the mob can take some time,
then if it fails to spawn somehow we can refund the uses.

## About The Pull Request
This morning a man presented me with a mission

I realised that I can achieve this in merely _three_ pull requests.
...because I'm leaving one that adds new AI until after feature freeze
february.
This one pulls all of the ability code out of the giant spider mob file
and spruces it up a bit in preparation for making them into basic mobs.
It removes an ancient "todo" about merging the spider and genetics web
abilities by, doing that.
Spider abilities no longer extend from a shared and reasonably pointless
"innate" root ability and also don't require their owners to be spiders
to work properly any more.
Also while I was in there I fixed a bug where the "set directive"
ability did not actually pass that into the antag datum of a new spider
unless they logged out and back in.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Code should smell nicer now.
Removes an essentially duplicated ability.
Clears up some chat log spam which didn't need to be in there.
You can actually set an objective for spiders you create as a spider
brood mother.
I guess you can make spiders-man as an admin by giving spider abilities
to other mobs.
## Changelog
🆑
refactor: Tidied up spider ability code, they should all work the same,
but please report if they do not.
refactor: Spiders and Geneticists now use the same ability to make webs
rather than two virtually-identical ones, which should also perform just
as it did before this change.

announce itself to new spiders.

This buffs scythes, goats, and plantbgone vs PLANT biotypes:
- Scythes now deal x1.5 damage to venus flytraps (3 hits to kill)
- Scythes now target the flower bud vines
- Goats now target flower bud vines and deal 15 damage to PLANT biotypes
- Goats have a eating sound whenever they bite PLANT biotypes
- Plantbgone now does 2 dmg per unit to PLANT biotypes (10 dmg per
spray)
- Plantbgone now has a 75% chance to remove weeds and deals large damage
to flower buds
- Weed control crates now come with a pair of leather gloves
- Golems are immune to thorn effects
- Any kind of thick glove material will prevent thorn effects when
attacking
- Flower buds will now take x4 damage from fire and sharp weapons
(unless they have fire trait)
- Regular scythes are now a sharp object
Also this fixes a few runtimes with spacevines and nulls. The bane
element now accepts `mob_biotypes` bitflags as an argument.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Before my changes:
- Plant-b-gone was doing 0.4 dmg per unit to PLANT biotypes (2 dmg per
spray)
- Scythes took 5 hits to kill venus flytraps
- Goats only affected podpeople
- Flower bud vines were being ignored by weed killing code
- Plantbgone only had a 50% chance to remove weeds (and this was very
inconsistent due to RNG)
- Botanical gloves and thick gloves didn't protect from thorns
- Golems were getting pierced by thorns despite having pierce immunity
- Flower buds were not taking the x4 damage like they should have been
- Regular scythes were not a sharp object, but other scythes
(chaplain's, megafauna loot) were sharp
This makes the weed killer crate more effective since people were
complaining about it being worthless vs vines and flower buds. These
changes give people more options to respond to threats vs plants.

## About The Pull Request
So, a huge issue with memories and - what I personally believe is the
reason why not many have been added since their inception is - they're
very annoying to add!
Normally, adding subtypes of stuff like traumas or hallucinations are as
easy as doing just that, adding a subtype.
But memories used this factory argument passing method combined with
holding all their strings in a JSON file which made it just frustrating
to add, debug, or just mess with.
It also made it much harder to organize new memories keep it clean for
stuff like downstreams.
So I refactored it. Memories are now handled on a subtype by subtype
basis, instead of all memories being a `/datum/memory`.
Any variety of arguments can be passed into memories like addcomponent
(KWARGS) so each subtype can have their own `new` parameters.
This makes it much much easier to add a new memory. All you need to do
is make your subtype and add it somewhere. Don't need to mess with jsons
or defines or anything.
To demonstrate this, I added a few memories. Some existing memories had
their story values tweak to compensate.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Makes it way simpler to add new memories. Maybe we'll get some more fun
ones now?
## Changelog

it will also grant you a memory, though you will likely not be alive to
see it.

cool the bomb is.

## About The Pull Request
Closes#72141
Roundstart humans weren't in control of their mob by the time
`AssignQuirks` was called.
The call chain for roundstart goes `create_characters` ->
`equip_characters` -> `AssignQuirks` -> `transfer_characters`.
For latejoin, `create_character` -> `transfer_character` ->
`AssignQuirks`.
I could simply move around the call chain, but that feels much more
fragile and more liable to cause other issues to me. So instead, I
simply allowed add quirk to be passed a client, so that a client's
quirks can be applied to a mob they are not currently inhabiting.
In doing this, it became possible to show visual quirks on the prefs
dummy, like nearsighted glasses and heterochromia. So I put in a little
work to accomplish that as well.

Along side, some refactoring and documentation for quirk datums.
