## About The Pull Request
adds stoats to the game!

these are relatively friendly animals u can find in maints. they'll hunt
down mice and other smaller vermin (making them a janitor's best friend)
,and are nimble enough to crawl through pipes. They also love stealing
things as they will drag random objects they find lying around them.
additionally, you may find disposal bins that are shaking, this means
there's a stoat inside rummaging it for food. clicking eject or throwing
anything in the bin will cause the stoat to immediately jump out scared.
u can also tame them by feeding them eggs or dead mice.
## Why It's Good For The Game
further expands the mob pool of maints, establishing some sort of
ecosystem.

## About The Pull Request
Since #90505 added another entry to it the Regal Rat Riot ability, which
turns maintenance creatures into versions loyal to the rat, has become
sort of unmanageable (and to be honest it was a bit gross to start
with).
Instead of having a big if/else list (which was making the same range
check multiple times...) that sets stats on a bunch of mobs, I delegated
it to the mobs themselves and instead of changing some stats of the
existing mobs we just turn them into a new mob which can be spawned or
placed separately by mappers or admins if they want.
Other stuff I changed:
Riot (the ability which transforms mobs into minions) no longer spawns a
mouse if it fails to find anything. Instead you have a chance to fish
mice out of disposals bins while digging out trash and items.
Domain is now a toggle which activates itself every 6 seconds rather
than a button you manually click every 6 seconds.
Riot makes a visual effect when used.
Rare Pepe randomisation is done via a random spawner instead of the mob
modifying a bunch of its own properties in Initialise.
A bunch of mobs now automatically follow you after being tamed. I wrote
this assuming I was going to add it to the rioted mobs but then didn't
end up doing that because you might want them to immediately attack
someone.
My rule of thumb is that if I think you'd want the mob to attack someone
the moment it is befriended I didn't add this and if you wouldn't I did.
I changed some of the regal rat minion names, and some of them can now
spawn from gold slime which couldn't before.
## Why It's Good For The Game
This proc sucked and now it's nicer.
As for the other changes;
- A tamed mob immediately following you is nice feedback and saves you a
click as it's likely to be your first action. Also removes some admin
panel shitcode I added.
- I changed Domain to a toggle because you generally want to use it on
cooldown and someone suggested it on this PR and it sounded like a good
idea.
- I saw someone in Discord complaining that the previous flow of
recruiting rats by hitting Riot with nothing around to summon one,
waiting, hitting it again to convert one rat, and waiting again was
tedious and annoying which I agree with.
This method improves the quality of life by separating these two actions
but _also_ as a side effect reduces a regal rat's ability to secretly
stockpile 50 rats in a hidden maintenance room because most disposal
bins are in slightly more visible areas, they'll actually need to go and
make a mess somewhere someone can see them.
## Changelog
🆑
balance: Regal Rats can now grab mice out of disposal bins, and no
longer spawn them with the Riot ability.
balance: The Riot ability no longer needs to be used once for each
slightly different kind of mob in your radius.
balance: The Regal Rat Domain ability is now toggled on and off.
balance: Several kinds of mob will immediately start following you once
tamed.
balance: Rats, hostile frogs, and evil snails can be created via gold
slime reaction.

## About The Pull Request
adds snails to the game

these are harmless critters you can find in maints. they love eating all
variety of fruits, and are gravitated towards snail people, where
they'll dance around them.
you can also pick them up and put them on your head.
finally, you can also grab them and put them in hydrotrays (they will
swim around in it very slowly). they'll help ur plants grow as they act
as natural weed-repellants, as they'll eat weeds that grow in trays.

## Why It's Good For The Game
there's not that many mobs you can usually find in maints, currently
there's only mice and cockroaches, this helps expand the pools a bit.

## About The Pull Request
Fixes#90767
This PR redesigns ice whelps somewhat
As before they have two fire breath attacks, one of which is a line and
one of which is a point blank AOE
Unlike before, the aspect of forecasting that the attack is coming is
now part of the ability and not a component only used by ice whelps (I
didn't like the component) and comes with visuals


Also unlike before, the line breath is longer and comes out faster
(because it's frankly pretty trivial to avoid) and the point blank
effect has been upgraded to effect every tile in a circular area within
3 spaces of the drake
The drake will now use the "every nearby tile" attack if you are close
by when its abilities come off cooldown, and the longer ranged one if
you're not
## Why It's Good For The Game
This fixes Ice Drakes using their breath attack literally once and never
again and might make them slightly more interesting to fight
Their slow speed and inaccurate targeting I think still means that
they're not very threatening on their own, but that'd need a more
substantial redesign to fix
## Changelog

## About The Pull Request
This PR removes the `basic_mob_attack_telegraph` component from all mobs
which were using it and instead implements an attack delay directly into
the basic melee AI behaviour.
This delay simulates "moving your mouse into position", human reaction
times, and the fact that the previous implentation of simple mobs would
only try to melee attack on a predictable timer you could "juke" around.
The way that this delay works is that it starts as soon as the mob
enters melee range and resets if you are ever out of the mob's reach, so
there will be no delay if you are foolish enough (or unfortunately
preventing from doing otherwise) to continue standing next to a mob but
there is enough of a one to duck in and out of melee range with a
goliath while using a crusher without getting hit, although trying to
run past one usually won't work.
This delay defaults to 0.3 seconds which in my testing experience was
roughly enough to dip in and out of range without getting hit but not
enough to run all the way past a mob without getting hit. It can be
overriden via the blackboard, although currently no mob does this.
I _was_ testing this locally with no latency though so I guess we'll
listen out to see if miners start yelling.
## Why It's Good For The Game
The visible attack broadcast is very cool but its visibility made melee
combat with any mob that had it significantly easier to such a degree
that any mob with it on could not really be expected to do melee damage
to any character that wasn't suffering some kind of immobilisation
effect which was never really the intention.
Removing it also removes any additional handicap that was applied to
sapient versions of these mobs, which was never really necessary or
intended in the first place.
I did not remove the component entirely from the game for two reasons:
- Out of the hope that there is some use for it somewhere, because I
think it's cool, but more importantly:
- Because it's still being used by simple mob megafauna as a workaround
for a bug we couldn't figure out.
## Changelog
🆑
balance: Most mobs will now hesitate for a moment before attacking
rather than instantly hitting anything that enters melee range, to
better simulate human behaviour. Please report if this delay seems too
short, or too long.
balance: Most mobs which telegraphed their basic attacks on you now will
not do that

## About The Pull Request
Separate verb and PR from #89375 because this is something you'd apply
on top of a mob with existing behaviour, or one you've used the other
verb on.
This will probably conflict with my other PR but that's my problem.
This adds a shortcut for making mobs say/emote stuff randomly on a timer
from a list of things you have specified.
Doing this via VV is possible but sufficiently complicated that I don't
think anyone would ever bother.
As with the other PR you can optionally do this to mobs who already have
a client if you want them to randomly burp every so often or something.
I briefly flirted with the idea of replacing all
`/datum/ai_planning_subtree/random_speech` subtypes with blackboard ones
but... I think probably actually we save some memory _and_ sanity by not
doing that.
A bunch of mobs on totally different typepaths use the `/insect` subtype
for instance, and I don't think it would be an improvement to paste the
same four vars into all of their blackboards.
## Why It's Good For The Game
This one is frankly more niche than the other PR probably but it is
plausibly useful if you are setting up some kind of VV creature.
## About The Pull Request
Melbert asked me to make this and I thought it'd be relatively easy and
plausibly useful so I did.
This PR adds a feature to the VV menu for mobs which allows you to apply
and configure an AI controller from a list of templates.
It's not as versatile as coding one would be, but it should be able to
accomodate a lot of generic scenarios.
Some examples of basic stuff you can set it up to do:
- Give Ian a machine gun he will fire at nearby people while staying
within a specified min/max range.
- Have Poly fire brimstone beams on cooldown at whoever is nearby
(although she won't bother trying to line up cardinally).
- Assign a gorilla to be someone's personal bodyguard which will follow
them around and attack anyone who hurts them.
I have also made an executive decision to remove the restriction that
basic ai controllers can only be placed on basic mobs.
We've removed _most_ non-basic simple mobs from the game, and also have
more recently updated most AI behaviours to work agnostically of whether
they are assigned to a basic mob or not... which means that they'll
largely work on carbons.
Coincidentally, this feature makes sure to ask if you want an AI
controller to remain active on a mob which already has a client.
Assigning an active AI controller to a live player which forces their
character to automatically attempt to run away from whoever the last
person to attack them was is ~~not recommended behaviour because it's
largely untested~~ highly recommended behaviour because I think it's
very funny (makes it very hard to play though).
I'm gonna do another PR some time which cleans up `random_speech` so
it's configurable and then let you slap that on whoever as well.
## Why It's Good For The Game

## About The Pull Request
Some kind of refactor to how AI behaviours work kind of messed this one
up, all of its return values that ended the proc and stopped the suicide

proc.
I fixed it to just call `finish_behaviour` instead.

## About The Pull Request
Converts geese to basic mobs.
Nobody else did this one because two separate other developers have said
they started and then examining what the goose does made them feel
mildly ill, but I am stronger.
I will admit though I wasn't 100% committed to making it work exactly
the same way, I rewrote the entire system to use interfaces I like more
(read: I put all this shit in a status effect which means any mob can be
given the ability to vomit out everything in its contents) and if that
means the behaviour is only "inspired by" that didn't bother me that
much.
**Geese:**
- Wander randomly around.
- Peck people who attack them.
- Occasionally start pecking other nearby animals for absolutely no
reason.
- Eat any food they randomly wander within one tile of, but don't seek
it out further than that.
- Eat anything made of plastic that they randomly wander within one tile
of.
- Choke to death over 30 seconds if they eat anything made of plastic.
- Vomit out whatever it was that they choked on when they die.
- Honk (this is new).
The more famous subtype of goose is Birdboat. Birdboat is a unique goose
present on several maps with some additional behaviour.
**Birdboat:**
- Is chill and doesn't start pecking people for no reason.
- Is occasionally possessed by ghosts.
- Builds up an internal vomit-meter as he eats things. Moving around and
just sort of generally hanging will start rolling dice to find out when
Birdboat's tummy gets upset.
- May start vomiting instead of choking to death on plastic, thereby
saving his own life.
- Vomits out everything that he just ate while running around, making a
mess of the floor.
- Starts eating everything he just vomited out again.
Unlike regular geese who just eat your food and it's gone, Birdboat's
miraculous digestion preserves all of the food he eats so if he consumes
the entire kitchen counter it will eventually come back out again the
way it went in. Although you might not want to eat it any more.
The precise way in which this manifests may be slightly different, but
largely this is also what these animals did before.
Other stuff:
I noticed a bunch of find/set behaviours were not setting a search
range? I think that means they were never finding anything?
I did not actually test any of them to see if they were broken, but it's
possible that a bunch of broken AI behaviours like "climbing trees" may
now actually start triggering because they have a search radius greater
than an orange of 0.
I added "keep this in contents instead of deleting it" as a parameter
for generic eating and slapped it on the goldgrub, as it is used in two
places and may end up being used in more.
## Why It's Good For The Game
This kills off the last user of the `retaliate` subtype and makes our
list so so much closer to finish.
It's like... a couple of bots, a handful of oddballs (I'll probably
handle these soon), and then just the mining bosses and minibosses to
go.
If you give a human the vomit goose ability (now that I made it work on
any mob) they will eject all their organs and body parts via the mouth
until they die, if you don't do the brain or heart first you can vomit
your own head off.
## Changelog
🆑
refactor: Geese have been moved to the basic mob subsystem, please
report any unusual behaviour.

Fixes#89060 and a few other inconsistencies that I think aren't
reported yet. In particular, these are:
- Ordering the Stargazer to attack a window, machinery, and essentially
anything that isn't a wall or person will result in refusal. This
behavior was different.
- The spell to remotely command the Stargazer doesn't work.
- The shift-hover radial menu is weirdly offset.
I'm still trying to figure out what makes the mob not attack windows
unlike before, so I'll set it as a draft until I fix it.

firstly, the new ruin: outpost 31
its layout is vaguely based off an official map of the Outpost 31 from
the Thing movie but i ran out of space halfway

the boss drops a keycard for the storage room that you cant get in
otherwise, containing its own special item, and other stuff probably
useful for crew
crusher loot: trophy that heals you on each hit
the ruin is guarded by like 3 flesh blobs, very resilient (and slow)
masses of flesh that deal 3 brute damage, not harmful in melee but WILL
attempt to grab and devour/assimilate you which is FAR more lethal
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/542cc6d0-f4ee-4598-9677-a03170c6c1c3
Boss: The Thing (with creative liberties otherwise this thing would
instakill you if it was true to source material)
difficulty: medium apparently idk mining jesus beat it with 400ms or so
HP: 1800
It is a much higher ranking changeling than those infiltrating SS13
It has 3 phases, 600hp each. Depleting its phase health will turn it
invincible and it will heal back half in 10 seconds. In order to prevent
this, the two Molecular Accelerators must be overloaded by interacting
with them to blast the changeling with deadly scifi magic or whatever
they do, forcing it to shed its form further and go to the next phase.
Not necessary for phase 3 because it literally just dies then
it focuses mostly on meleeing you and making certain tiles impassable
for you with 1hp tendrils, all attacks are telegraphed so theres no dumb
instakills here
it alternates between aoe abilities and abilities
melee behavior:
- if too far, charge at target (charges twice on phase 3)
- too close, shriek (unavailable in phase 1) (technically AOE but its
more like a melee ability you know??)
- otherwise just try to melee
Shriek: if the player is too close emit a confusing shriek that makes
them confused and drop items
aoe behavior (phase 2, 3 only):
1: Puts 4 tendrils in a line cardinally
2: Puts tendrils around itself
3. Puts a patch of tendrils around and under the target, 3x3 in phase 3
4. Phase 3 only - spits patches of acid into the air that hurt when
stepped on
_(crusher is hard ok)_
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/cbb98209-d3f0-470d-b0e8-4e310c5b709c
unique megafauna loot for this boss is like 1 AI-Uplink brain
its like a BORIS module but for humans i think you can figure out what
that means
while in a human shell they cannot roll non-malf midrounds and cannot be
converted, and cannot be mindswapped
the human MUST have all robotic organs (minus tongue because its not in
the exosuit fab and that kinda sucks to get)
will undeploy if polymorphed

## Why It's Good For The Game
icebox is severely lacking in actual good ruins (fuck that one fountain
ruin)
i feel that the loot given by megafauna has been and still apparently is
exclusively to make the victor more powerful, which kinda sucks because
thats just powergaming???? the loot of this boss is more crewsided,
specifically aiding the AI in a VERY limited quantity (1), so its not
anything good for powergamers, good for crew if the AI is not rogue

## About The Pull Request
Simple animal Dark Wizard => Basic mob Dark Wizard.
This mob is I think used in literally one ruin, and very occasionally
spawned in deathmatch.
They don't really do anything except shoot you with slowing projectiles
and hit you with sticks.
I gave them a version of blink with a longer cooldown that they use when
attacked in melee range purely to make them very marginally more
wizard-like, and they will also now try to back away from you while
shooting you instead of running towards you.
They will also retaliate against anyone who attacks them including as a
response to friendly fire from other Dark Wizards, because I think it is
funny if they have very little loyalty to each other and that's a fun
thing to trigger when you are playing Doom.
Finally, we have a component called "revenge ability" which is mostly a
standin for AI responses to getting attacked. I made all existing uses
of it turn off if you're controlled by a sapient player who can hit
those buttons themselves, because they can choose when they want to use
those abilities themselves.

## About The Pull Request
adds turtles to the game! but these aren't your typical turtles.

these are flora-turtles, with giant trees growing on their shells. These
trees can emit fields which affects nearby hydroponic plants. Initially,
the trees start out as young buds, from there the tree can evolve into
different types depending on what you feed the turtle.
Feeding them pesticides causes the tree to blossom to be purple. this
tree's fields will help kill some pests and weeds in nearby plants.
Feeding them nutrients gives you the green tree, the fields will heal
nearby plants
Feeding them mutators like uranium or left 4 zed gives you the yellow
tree. the fields increase instability of plants
The turtle will emit these fields every once in a while, ONLY when its
feeling happy. therefore you'll have to pet it, clean it and feed it
every once in a while to keep it satisfied. You can view the turtle's
happiness by shift clicking it.
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/a47136a1-06a1-419e-acc2-2f6f4468e296
The turtle only eats seeds. after eating a seed, itll process it and
spit out its corresponding fruit! (for example, feeding it an apple seed
gives you an apple). itll also sometimes playfully headbutt your legs
and it loves going around smelling the scent from nearby plants
you can get these turtles by fishing the hydroponics tray or by ordering
them through cargo.

adds repairbots to the game!

this pr serves as a massive rework and buff to floorbots. i was a bit
sad that they dont get built much anymore so ive given them tons of more
utilities and uses.
Repairbots still inherit to place tiles and repair breaches. but they
can now rebuild walls, rebuild windows and repair structure and
machinery. Also Ive given them voicelines to add more character to them.
In short, they are very depressed with their job (however they express
their happy go lucky attitude when u emag them where they will start
deconstructing the station)
to demonstrate capabilities, here's a slightly sped up clip of some
repairbots patching up an area that was maxcapped 4 times:
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/bddac3b0-1984-4571-85d3-c5283dd7c0de
When repairbots feel threatened, they will retract into their little

carry and plop them down at breached sites, or to bash skull with it

## About The Pull Request
GODMODE has a lot of sources that toggle it. From admin-stuff to status
effects, components, actions and mobs which are supposed to be
invincible. It's better off as a trait than a flag, so we can manage
these sources.
## Why It's Good For The Game
See above.
## Changelog
🆑
admin: godmode is now a datum trait instead of a bitflag. This means the
process for toggling it is a little different now.

## About The Pull Request
Title. Adds two new maps:
- Grasslands Hunt (peaceful)
- Meta Central (easy)
These maps add a new basic revolutionary mob and significantly upgrades
the ai of basic deer.
This fixes an issue where modular maps were not correctly spawning mobs
or adding them to the "mutable candidates" for antagonists.
There's also some balance changes to bitrunning vendor prices, which are
generally now lower. This change is unrelated to the PR as a whole so
I'm okay with removing it if there's concern

## About The Pull Request
The other day someone posted a story on the tgstation forums about being
spawned as a sentient "passive carp" from slime gold cores and then
biting someone to death which mildly annoyed me because "passive carp"
is a mob which exists purely for a shuttle event, to make them less
dangerous when passing through the area.
And _also_ because once sapient the passive carp was, of course, not
passive at all. If it was a passive carp they wouldn't have had to
appeal a note, because they wouldn't have been able to bite that guy.
There were two solutions for this.
The obvious one is "remove this mob from the gold slime core pool".
The one I chose instead was "give this mob more divergent behaviour".
Now instead of "passive carp" it is called a "false carp", which is a
carp-like creature that is incapable of harming humans (it has the
pacifist trait and does no damage).
It is spawned from the _friendly_ gold core reaction instead of the
hostile one.
It will be chill until someone attacks it or it sees someone attack
another false carp, then all of them will run away from that person.
Additionally I fixed a bug where its teeth reappeared in some animation
states.
And another bug where crab AI just didn't work.
## Why It's Good For The Game
If you see a mob called "passive carp" it should do what it says in the
name.
## Changelog
🆑
balance: Pacifist carp can now be spawned from the friendly gold core
reaction, and no longer appear from the hostile one.
fix: The teeth of toothless carp will not occasionally reappear
fix: Crabs will now run from attackers larger than them and attack
things smaller than them, as intended.

## About The Pull Request
Carps, frogs and young lobstrosities now fear legendary anglers wearing
the legendary fishing hat and will flee. The item is skill-locked, so
only those that have maxxed out the skill can wear it.
Differently, adult lobstrosities and megacarps (and suicide frogs, which
are used nowhere) do not flee but will still prioritize them over the
rest.
## Why It's Good For The Game
I'm putting some emphasis on the "fish fear me" _(lobstrosities and
frogs aren't exactly fish but it'd been quite boring to only include
carps)_ and also making the hat a bit more than just some cosmetic
novelty.
## Changelog
🆑
add: Carps, frogs and young lobstrosities now fear people wearing
fishing hats! Adults and megacarp favour the 'fight' part of the fear
reflex however.
fix: The hat stabilizer module now inherits the clothing traits of the
attached hat.

## About The Pull Request
Lobstrosities can now be raised from aquarium icemoon/lavaland chrabs.
First of all, you've to get a live chrab, an aquarium, and some fish
feed. Second, you place the chrab inside the aquarium and turn the
'allow breeding' settting on (should probably rename it to a more apt
name now). Keep the chrab well fed, and possibly with some friends and
props in the same aquarium until it develops into a hopefully calm
juveline lobstrosity and plops out of the aquarium (it can take some
time). From there you can tame it by feeding it its favorite food: arms
and lavaloop fish, and wait another dozen minutes for it to mature into
a fully grown lobstrosity.
Juveline lobstrosities are basically smaller and weaker lobstrosities,
if not slightly faster in some ways. Unlike their taller counterparts,
they can be tamed. Once done so, they'll retain their tamedness once
grown up. Regardless, tamed lobstrosities can be given the pet command
to fish for things by pointing at them. Thanks BenMatrix for the
profound fisher component, woo.
The chrab's weigth and size influence the growth speed of the first
stage faster, meaning bigger chrabs (may require crossbreeding) will
turn into juveline lobstrosities quickly. Amongst other things
influencing the resulting mob are fish traits:
Several traits have been given effects that apply to the mob, such as
nocturnal regeneration, being venomous or being able to fly akin space
carps. Also a new one that prevents the resulting lobstrosity from fully
developing
Now tested.
## Why It's Good For The Game
I'm building upon fishing and aquarium stuff, which has been an interest
of mine in a good while, though most of it doesn't have that many
practical uses, I'm slowly trying to make it cooler, and chasm chrabs
growing into lobstrosities is pretty much in line with the fluff texts
for the fish.
Eventually I'll have to add tips inside fishing toolboxes, otherwise
people won't know even half of it.
## Changelog
🆑
add: You can raise lobstrosities from chasm chrabs inside an aquarium
with the 'allow breeding' setting on. Keep the fish well fed, healthy
and not lonely if you don't want an hostile one.
add: Juveline lobstrosities (from chasms, plasma rivers, or aquariums,
xenobio too) can be tamed with arms and lavaloop fishes.
add: For lobstrosities grown from aquariums, they can have additional
effects based on the fish traits they had in the aquarium, like being
venomous or even flying.

## About The Pull Request
Apparently I've left out that `isopenspaceturf(A)` returns false on
normal (not multi-z) space turfs because they're of a different path.
This should fix the fact you can use hoverboards as a substitute
jetpacks, which wasn't intended. You can still use them in space if
there's lattice/catwalk underneath, or another kind of turf on the
z-level below however.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Unintended bit from the skateboard buff PR I had made months ago.

## About The Pull Request
i think i made these a bit too strong, this hopefully balances them out
a bit. they were initially accidentally given alot of armor against
ranged attacks, this is now removed. also ive reduced their base hp by a

they were stronger than i intended. this keeps their usefulness for
battling tendrils, or ore vents but also prevents using them to cheese

## About The Pull Request
adds raptors to lavaland. these are creatures that have been created
through countless xenobiological experiments by nanotrasen to breed an
animal that can withstand the harsh conditions of lavaland and aid
miners. theres now a new ranch miners can access bottom right to the
mining base

this ranch starts somewhat empty as most raptors have escaped
containment and are now scattered all across lavaland, u can find them
and return them to ur ranch.
in order to tame a raptor, u first need to prove to it that ur a capable
master. when u try to ride it, a little minigame prompt will pop up

in this game, the bird's icon rapidly changes direction and u have to
quickly click the arrow thats OPPOSITE to the direction its facing
several times before the direction changes. if you fail 3 times itll
knock you off and run away, however if u win it will deem u a suitable
master and listen to your orders.
There's many different breeds of raptors you can find across lavaland,
all with different capabilities:
red raptors: these excel at combat and can be very useful for dealing
with lavaland mobs or defending the node drone
yellow raptors: are very speedy mounts, theyll get u from point A to
point B in record time
green raptors: they are the tankiest type of raptor and are very good
miners. while mounted, they will clear any rock walls in their path
purple raptors: can store items in them. they have a decent storage size
allowing players to carry more items across trips
white raptors: are able to heal other injured raptors. having one in ur
party would be very useful as they can nurse the combat raptors back to
full health when they need it
blue raptors: produce very nutritious milk with healing capabilities.
having 1 or 2 of these back at ur ranch would be very useful
black raptors: by far the rarest breed, its very unlikely that ull be
able to get one of these, but in the case u do, they have the combat
capabilities of the red raptor, speed of the yellow raptor, and
tankiness of the green raptor.
Breeding different colored raptors together can net u an entirely new
colored raptor. each breed has atleast 1 guaranteed combination of
parents that it will result out of.
you will also need to maintain a good friendship bond with ur raptors,
this is done by feeding them, grooming them, and petting them. u can see
the strength of ur bond by SHIFT clicking them. more hearts indicate a
stronger bond

having higher friendship bonds means ur raptors will perform better in
combat, and in the case of blue raptors, they will produce more milk.
Maintaining friendship bonds with baby raptors and keeping them happy
will also encourage them to grow faster
U can also analyze raptors using the new raptor-dex device available at
ur ranch

the inherit modifiers indicate how strong this raptor's offspring will
be. raptors inherit attack and health stats from both their parents,
breeding raptors with higher inherit modifiers means the offspring will
be stronger.
raptors will also inherit some traits from their parents that will
change how they will act around u and around other raptors, some of them
being:
Playful: raptors will play with their masters and tease them
motherly: raptors will care for baby raptors, this will encourage baby
raptors to grow quicker
depressed: means its hard to keep this raptor happy and friendship bonds
will deteriorate faster if not given enough care.
coward: makes them flee combat if severly injured, ditching u to the
wolves
trouble maker: makes them attack other raptors at the ranch. however,
trouble maker raptors will not attack other trouble maker raptors,
instead they will form posses and bully raptors together. it might be a
good idea to isolate them from the other raptors
raptors primarily consume ores. to feed raptors, you need to place ore
into the food troughs at the ranch. they are too civilized to eat ores
off the ground or directly from ur hand, they will only eat it if its in
their trough

## About The Pull Request
Nother bit ripped out of #79498
[Implements a get_cooldown() proc to get around dumb manual overrides
and empower me to optimize the findtarget
logic](7047d294dd)
[Adds modify_cooldown, uses it to optimize find_potential_targets
further](4ebc8cedce)
No sense running the behavior if we're just waiting on its output, so
let's run it once a minute just in case, then push an update instantly
if we find something
[Optimizes connect_range and
promxity_monitors](bcf7d7c5b3)
We know what turfs exist before and after a move
We can use this information to prevent trying to update turfs we don't
care about.
This is important because post these changes mobs with fields will be
moving a lot more, so it's gotta be cheap
[Implements a special kind of field to handle ai
targeting](80b63b3445)
If we run targeting and don't like, find anything, we should setup a
field that listens for things coming near us and then handle those
things as we find them.
This incurs a slight startup cost but saves so much time on the churn of
constant costs
Note:
We should also work to figure out a way to avoid waking ais if none is
near them/they aren't doing anything interesting
We don't need to do that immediately this acts as somewhat of a stopgap
(and would be good regardless) but it is worth keeping in mind)
## IMPORTANT
I am unsure whether this is worth it anymore since #82539 was merged. As
I say it was done as a stopgap because ais didn't know how to idle.
If not I'll rip er out and we'll keep the other
refactoring/optimizations.

## About The Pull Request
this pr buffs non-sentient minebots a bit to make them more helpful with
the new arcmining changes.
Minebots now have a better overall AI, they will maintain distance from
enemies and shoot while running. they will also plant landmines while
theyre running away from enemies. these landmines are carefully
programmed by the bot not to trigger when any of its miner friends step
on it. u no longer need to feed minebots an ore to get them to listen to
you, as they now automatically listen to any miners around.
minebots can now repair damaged node drones

they also have a new autodefend feature, which makes them automatically
attack any mob that attacks its miner friends or the drone. They also
have some new upgrades!
First is the regenerative shield, this shield allows minebots to tank a
limited amount of hits before breaking. minebots will then need to wait
sometime before the shield re-activates.
Second is the rocket launcher remote control, this allows players to
direct minebots to fire anti-fauna missiles at their target
https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/assets/138636438/3ec3605e-8e11-4a31-acaa-1382bed98294
Also minebots are now highly customizable, you can rename them, change
their colors, or program their AI through their new user interface

solo players
