## About The Pull Request
The recyclers (those things that destroy trash in disposals) in three
instances were rotated incorrectly.
Snow Cabin's lumbermill and the Deep Storage waste room had their
recyclers perpendicular to the conveyor they are on (bad)
The Cyborg Mothership's recycler was facing the wrong way on its
conveyor, causing things to go through it in reverse (bad)
## Why It's Good For The Game
why have a recycler on a conveyor belt when the conveyor just runs into
the side of it (or, in the cyborg ship's case, through the back of it)
## Changelog
🆑
fix: The recyclers in the snow cabin gateway, the cyborg mothership, and
the deep storage space ruin are now rotated properly.

## About The Pull Request
In my effort to make the /icons/ folder cleaner and more intuitive
instead of having to rely on recalling names of stuff and looking them
up in code to find them for poor sods such as myself, plus in spurt of
complusion to organize stuff, here goes. I've tracked all changes in
commit descriptions. A lot still to be done, but I know these waves go
over dozens of files making things slow, so went lighter on it.
Destroyed useless impostor files taking up space and cleaned a stray
pixel on my way.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Cleaner /icons/ file means saner spriters, less time spent. Stray pixels
and impostor files (ones which are copies of actually used ones
elsewhere) are not good.

Scales them all by up to 20 to account for removing the dumb SMESRATE
define. This isn't a 100% conversion for every SMES because it would go
beyond their capacity (old SMES use to duplicate cell energy, so they
had a higher capacity than their cell parts imply). Also removes
instances of varediting their capacity to fucking 1e+600 and replaces
them with magical SMES.

## About The Pull Request
I've recently noticed that the maploaded penguins from the snowdin away
mission were dying from unsafe atmos/temperature. This sparked the idea
of making a (focus only) unit test that would prevent this sort of
issues from happening.
This PR also implements the usage of the `atmos_requirements` and
`body_temp_sensitive` elements for simple animals too, cutting down the
copypaste.
## Why It's Good For The Game

## About The Pull Request
We currently have 2 types of xenos in the codebase, simple animal and
carbon.
I'd like to unite them both under basic, and I thought I should go for
simple animal first since it's more of a conversion than a remake.
This helps set a base for a future basic-only xeno, which would require
the following:
- Basic mobs (or just anything than Carbon) to have Organs, which we can
then use for things like referring to their plasma sac for egg-laying,
etc.
- All xeno types having a basic mob variant, preferably with an AI so
they would work without a player.
- Something be done about larva, either we'd split basic xenos into
"larva" and "adult" (like carbon) or have it be a separate path that can
also have organs so they can still have hivemind.
Everything else seems to have been done overtime as simple animals have
been converted to basic (HUDs and holding things now seem possible,
etc.)
Even if this doesn't work out, at least this cuts off a good chunk of
the remaining simple animals to convert to basic.
Sprites used (for mapping helpers):
Fire medkit
Toxin medkit
Oingo Boingo punch face (i tried to shrink it down)
## Why It's Good For The Game
This helps advance us move away from simple animals, and helps move
carbon xenos to basic mob later too if that's what we want to go for.

refactor: Xenomorphs (Lavaland & Oldstation ones) are now basic mobs.

## About The Pull Request
I was thinking to contribute something to the new away mission map to
make it better. Mapping and all takes too much time for me, so I could
do little. Though it comes with its own unique gimmicks.
To reach the cafeteria, one has to complete a couple puzzles.
The first set is opened by inputing the correct PIN on the password
panel beside it. There're several clues to help you guess this fairly
easy puzzle, in the form of several number graffitis, a scrapped piece
of paper full of numbers, and a board filled with colored dots also
found just beside the panel.
The second one is opened by a keycard, and is generally lazier. To find
it, you'll need to do a bit of (toilet) searching.
As for the unique things this PR adds:
- A fire extinguisher... that actually contains welding fuel
- A (dirt-cheap) hotdog vending machine*
- A completely ornamental maneki-neko (that's the name of the
luck-bringing, paw-waving cat figurine)
- A piggy bank that carries money between rounds. It has a cap of 10k
credits worth of holochips, cash and coins, which is pretty high, but
I'm confident people will just destroy it for its contents the moment
they find it. His name is Pigston Swinelord VI.
- More, totally legit and not actually fake bombable walls :^)
*By the by, you can also find it during the national hotdog day.

You know how most away missions are not that special at all? Yeah,
@mc-oofert set an example of a pretty decent one actually, if not a tad
small. I thought it could use a touch of another mind actually
contributing to it too, because it deserves it.
Also, this sets the basis for other persistent piggy banks. I don't
think they should all have that 10k cap like this one, perhaps 1k is
enough. Beside, the code that mothblocks did for json database datum is
pretty good, so there is not a whole lot of shitcode here.

`/obj/structure/closet/crate/maint` was a type of crate that spawned a

swap this out for an actual spawning effect.
I have also did some subtypery to remove some duplicate code that
handled randomly opening the spawned closet/crate (through I am not that
satisfied with
`/obj/effect/spawner/random/structure/closet_empty/crate/with_loot` as a
sensible typepath name, I would like to ask for suggestions). I also
removed a loot define, because it was no longer needed as its contents
were used on a single page.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Things that act like spawners should be spawners.
Maybe this fixes the CI issue on northstar where a mousetrap box gets
deleted before it initializes during create and destroy? It was placed
above a spawner that spawned one of these self deleting crates. I am
unsure, I could not replicate this issue during testing.

## About The Pull Request
In truth, this is an IDED PR (this is not at all sarcasm, and as we all
know nobody would lie on the internet) that came about from a round i
just got done playing wherein i was in snowcabin trying to cook up some
food for fun, well wouldn't you know it i couldn't open one of the
fridges, what gives? well i got to thinkin it has to do with the fridge
type used, for some reason the fridge that holds the universal enzyme
uses the freezer/fridge/kitchen type instead of the fridge/open type
that the other two do, so i went ahead and just changed it off to the
other fridge types so now anyone can open it.
## Why It's Good For The Game
its a bit stupid to have a single fridge thats different from the rest
for no discernable reason, i can't think of any reason universal enzyme
would need to be guarded ever, you could just say "well why not go back
onto the station and grab some if the fridge is locked", well if for
some reason i'm barred from the station i want to be able to use as many
tools within my reach as possible preferably without many hoops, and
this ones unnecessary.

## About The Pull Request
Last one! Makes proteons into a basic mob, and completely removes the
simple_animal construct supertype.
Proteons aren't really designed to be played by a player, instead being
a nuisance mapped into various ruins and traps. As such, they don't
really have any special abilities. Instead, the hostile variant has a
somewhat unique behavior. They'll viciously attack anyone who comes
close, but, being frail little cowards, if a proteon takes damage it
will immediately flee. After a random period between 2 and 4 seconds, it
will stop fleeing and come back for more.
In addition to this, a few other things have been done, some only
related because they're in files I touched.
- Moved proteons from the file for the Cleric's Den to their own file in
the basic constructs folder. Given that they're used in several
different ruins, they might as well not just be in the file for one.
- Simple constructs have been cut, and with them the procs for
healing/repairing on shades and cult structures, as those are no longer
needed.
- Because I was touching it anyway, I touched up the file for trap
structures. They no longer use any one-letter variable names, and time
is now universally listed in seconds rather than deciseconds in that
file.
- I removed a completely unused blackboard key from ice demons. This is
something I noticed due to a change I ended up not making while working
on proteon AI, but I figured I might as well leave it gone.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Kills the last three simple construct typepaths, bringing us to the
destined 19 removed. Huzzah!
The proteon AI routine should inject a little spice into fighting
proteons, especially for the unprepared - unlike many mobs, they won't
stand there and take it if you decide to fight back, but you can never
safely ignore them when they run away. They still aren't particularly
dangerous.
## Changelog
🆑
refactor: Proteon constructs now use the basic mob framework. The ones
encountered in ruins are a bit flightier now, and will briefly flee
combat if attacked - only so that they can return and menace you again
soon after. Please report any bugs.

basically any light source that can be turned off and on. Even
flashlights. In the following pictures, a flashlight has been

## About The Pull Request
First and foremost, converts all Nanotrasen simplemobs into basic mobs.
To avoid messy and redundant code, or god forbid, making Nanotrasen mobs
a subtype of Syndicate ones, I've made Syndicate, Russian, and
Nanotrasen mobs all share a unified "Trooper" parent. This should have
no effect on their behaviors, but makes things much easier to extend
further in the future.
While most of this PR is pretty cut-and-dry, I've done a couple notable
things. For one, all types of ranged trooper will now avoid friendly
fire, instead of shooting their friends in the back. Even the Russians
have trigger discipline.
I've also created a new AI subtree that allows mobs to call for
reinforcements. I've hopefully made this easy to extend, but the
existing version works as follows:
- A mob with this subtree that gains a target that is also a mob will
call out to all mobs within 15 tiles.
- If they share a faction, mobs receiving the call will have the target
added to their retaliate list, and have a new key set targeting the
calling mob.
- If they have the correct subtree in their AI controller, called-to
mobs will then run over to help out.
Sadly, this behavior is currently used only by a few completely unused
Nanotrasen mobs, so in practice it will not yet be seen.
Finally, I've fixed a minor issue where melee Russian mobs punch people
to death despite holding a knife. They now use the proper effects for
stabbing instead of punching.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Removes 8 more simple animals from the list.
As said above, making all "trooper" type mobs share a common parent cuts
down on code reuse, ensures consistency of behavior, and makes it much
easier to add new troopers not affiliated with these groups. I expect
that I'll make pirates share this same parent next.
The new "reinforcements" behavior, though extremely powerful, opens up
exciting new opportunities in the future. There aren't many existing
behaviors that allow basic mobs to work _together_ in interesting ways,
and I think adding some enemy teamwork could be fun.
## Changelog

should make them a little smarter and more dangerous. Please report any
bugs.

## About The Pull Request
Turns skeletons (the simple animal version) into basic mobs. This was
another incredibly simple conversion, since skeletons don't really do
anything but walk at you and beat you to death.
Because I thought it was funny, though, skeletons will now seek out
cartons of milk and drink them. Real milk will heal them for a
significant amount, but soymilk, being false milk, will deal them
grievous injury instead! Skeletons beware... I didn't add any other
sorts of milk due to limited ability with existing AI behaviors to
identify milk containers (they actually only look for the carton items).
Other than that, I've done some flavor adjustment for skeletons' attacks
- their effects and sounds will now suit the weapon they're actually
holding - for example, skeleton templars now actually use their swords
instead of slashing you with their horrible fingers. Along with this I
gave the basic skeletons a normal slashing sound, instead of the weird,
impactless hallucination sound they used to use for some reason. I never
liked that sound.
Finally, I've reflavored the spear-wielding skeleton mobs to "undead
settlers", following the naming of the corpses dropped by snow legions
as of #76898, rather than being named after an offensive term for Inuit
people. These skeletons do, after all, appear in settlements on alien
worlds.
To enable the flavor of milk drinking, I expanded the `basic_eating`
component to allow drinking rather than eating flavor, with a different
sound and its own set of verbs. This deletes whatever they drink from,
but c'est la vie.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Ticks 6 more entries off the simple animal freeze. While skeletons are
still extremely simple, being largely-identical mobs that only exist to
beat you to death, being basic mobs should make them slightly better at
this job. Also, again, I think it's really funny that you can distract
skeleton mobs with milk, or even hurt them.
## Changelog
🆑
refactor: Hostile skeleton NPCs now use the basic mob framework. They're
a little smarter, and they also have a slightly improved set of attack
effects and sounds. They love to drink milk, but will be harmed greatly
if any heartless spaceman tricks them into drinking soymilk instead.

you can leave it in collection mode, and it will gather all the ores you
mine. Additionally, the bot now responds to several more commands; you
can instruct it to follow you, toggle its lights on or off by saying
"lights." In attack mode, it refrains from mining or collecting ores but
will engage in combat alongside you. If it detects you as deceased or

## About The Pull Request
This one is a double feature because Watchers and Basilisks share the
same typepath. You might see a couple more of those.
As is tradition I decided to fuck with them rather than just port them.
Here's what's up.
**Basilisks**
- Have a new soulless sprite which looks less like a living blue hedge.
- Walk at you and shoot you while you are not in range (just like
before).
- Become supercharged if they become "heated" by lava, lasers, or
temperature weapons. This was a feature they also previously had but
they would never encounter lava, so now it also works if you use the
wrong gun on them.
- Lose their supercharge if you cool them down.
- Otherwise pretty normal mobs.
**Watchers**
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kOq_Bf78k5A
Here's a traditional video of me intentionally getting hit by mechanics
(trust me its definitely on purpose)
- They glow emmissively a little bit so you can see them from further
away.
- Their eyes light up about 0.5 seconds before they are able to shoot at
you.
- No longer melee attack, instead try to stay out of melee.
- Will occasionally put you into "Overwatch", meaning they will shoot
you rapidly if you move or act while they're staring at you for a brief
time period (after which you become immune for 12 seconds, and during
which other watchers will play fair and stop shooting at you).
- If they start taking damage they will also start using their "Gaze"
attack, look away or suffer some kind of negative effect!
- - Normal watcher gaze flashes and confuses you.
- - Magmawing watcher gaze obviously burns (and briefly stuns) you.
- - Icewing watcher gaze freezes you and throws you backwards.
- Magnetically attract and eat diamonds. They also used to do this, but
just if they happened to coincidentally walk past some.
**Other accompanying changes**
All basic mobs will now adopt the "stop gliding" trait if they get
slowed down too much.
I moved behaviour for "fire a projectile from this atom" into a helper
proc because I was using it in three places and I will probably use it
in more places. There are probably other places in the existing code
which could be using this.
I think I made the basic mob melee attack forecast default a little more
forgiving, they were fucking me up too much and I am the playtester.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Another one off the list.
New tricks for old dogs.
Framework for making mobs with ranged attacks "fairer" (you can see when
they are ready to shoot you).
More (hopefully) versatile AI behaviours which we will reuse later (I
hope I'm not duplicating one someone already made).
If our players "enjoy" them enough we can give more mobs "don't look at
me" mechanics.
Removes some soul sprites.

type which all three kinds of spider life stage (`spiderling`, `young`,
`giant`) extend from, because there was a gross amount of copied code.
Now there isn't.
Also the Flesh Spider and Event Midwife eggs now simply hatch adult
spiders instead of child ones.
This is because there is no reason for either of these to have a two
minute wait time before they get going. Midwife spiders spawned by the
event should just start spidering immediately, and Flesh Spiders are
made by changelings and shouldn't be effected by measures introduced to
balance the spider gamemode.
Eggs which are laid during a round and _can_ hatch into midwife spiders
still hatch baby spiders.
Also I swapped some white pixels on the animation of the ambush
spiderling for a different colour because they looked bad.
## Why It's Good For The Game
While the policy is always "if you turn yourself into something, you're
not an antagonist" the presence of the antag datum still confuses
people. Plus that code was gross and I didn't like it.
## Changelog
🆑
fix: Giant Spiders only have an antag datum if created by the round
event.
balance: Flesh spider eggs hatch into adult spiders instead of baby
spiders.
balance: The eggs spawned by the start of the spider infestation event
hatch into adult Midwife spiders instead of baby ones.

i make the hivebot a basic bot also the old hivebot simple bot he was
chaneged apperence when he finded a target so i maked a new element to
allowed this behavier so now when the basic finded a target he apperence
can also changed and this elememt can be gived to another basic monsters
so they can changed apperence when they found a target. i give him new

## About The Pull Request
Ok, so a few days ago I made an issue report about multiple instances of
identical elements being generated because of uncached lists.
ninjanomnom (the mind being the element datums) cleared it up and said
an implementation of GetIdFromArguments() that also checks the list
contents wouldn't be worth the performance cost, while adding that a
unit test should be written to check that it doesn't happen at least
during init, which should catch a good chunk of cases.
Also, i'm stopping RemoveElement() from initializing new elements
whenever a cached element is not found. Ideally, there should be a focus
only unit test for that too, but that's something we should tackle on a
different PR.
Some of the code comments may be a tad inaccurate, as much as I'd like
to blame drowsiness for it. Regardless, the unit test takes less than
0.2 seconds to complete on my potato so it's fairly lite.

## About The Pull Request
Hello friends, I've been on a bit of a lighting kick recently, and I
decided I clearly do not have enough things to work on as it is.
This pr adds angle support to static lights, and a concepting/debug tool
for playing with lights on a map.
Let's start from first principles yeah?
### Why Angled Lights?
Mappers, since they can't actually see a light's effect in editor, tend
to go off gut.
That gut is based more off what "makes sense" then how things actually
work
This means they'll overplace light sources, and also they tend to treat
lights, particularly light "bars" (the bigger ones) as directional.
So you'll have two lights on either sides of a pillar, lights inside a
room with lights outside pointing out, etc.
This has annoying side effects. A lot of our map is overlit, to the
point that knocking out a light does.... pretty much nothing.
I find this sad, and would like to work to prevent it. I think dark and
dim, while it does not suit the normal game, is amazing for vibes, and I
want it to be easier to see that.
Angled lights bring how lights work more in line with how mappers expect
lights work, and avoids bleedover into rooms that shouldn't be bled
into, working towards that goal of mine.
### How Angled Lights?
This is more complex then you'd first think so we'll go step by step
Oh before we start, some catchup from the last time I touched lighting
code.
Instead of doing a lighting falloff calculation for each lighting corner
(a block that represents the resolution of our lights) in view we
instead generate cached lightsheets. These precalculate and store all
possible falloffs for x and y distances from a source.
This is very useful for angle work, since it makes it almost totally
free.
Atoms get 2 new values. light_angle and light_dir
Light angle is the angle the light uses, and light_dir is a cardinal
direction it displays in
We take these values, and inside sheetbuilding do some optional angle
work. getting the center angle, the angle of a pair of coords, and then
the delta between them.
This is then multiplied against the standard falloff formula, and job
done.
We do need some extra fenangling to make this all work nicely tho.
We currently use a pixel turf var stored on the light source to do
distance calculations.
This is the turf we pretend the light source is on for visuals, most
often used to make wall lights work nice.
The trouble is it's not very granular, and doesn't always have the
effect you might want.
So, instead of generating and storing a pixel turf to do our distance
calculations against, we store x and y offset variables.
We use them to expand our working range and sheet size to ensure things
visually make sense, and then offset any positions by them.
I've added a way for sources to have opinions on their offsets too, and
am using them for wall lights.
This ensures the angle calculations don't make the wall behind a light
fulldark, which would be silly.
### Debug Tool?
In the interest of helping with that core problem, lights being complex
to display, I've added a prototyping tool to the game.
It's locked behind mapping verbs, and works about like this.
Once the verb is activated, it iterates over all the sources in the
world (except turfs because those are kinda silly), outlining and
"freezing" them, preventing any future changes.
Then, it adds 3 buttons to the owners of a light source.
The first button toggles the light on and off, as desired.
The third allows you to move the source around, with a little targeting
icon replacing your mouse
The second tho, that's more interesting.
The second button opens a debug menu for that light
There's a lot here, let's go through it.
Bit on the left is a list of templates, which allow you to sample
existing light types (No I have no idea why the background is fullwhite,
need to work on that pre merge)
You can choose one by clicking it, and hitting the upload button.
This replaces your existing lighting values with the template's,
alongside replacing its icon and icon state so it looks right.
There are three types as of now, mostly for categorization. Bar, which
are the larger typically stronger lights, Bulb, which are well, bulbs,
and Misc which could be expanded, but currently just contains floor
lights.
Alongside that you can manually edit the power, range, color and angle
of the focused light.
I also have support for changing the direction of the light source,
since anything that uses directional lighting would also tie light dir
to it.
This isn't *always* done tho, so I should maybe find a way to edit light
dir too.
My hope is this tool will allow for better concepting of a room's
lights, and easier changing of individual object's light values to suit
the right visuals.
### Lemon No Why What
Ok so I applied angle lights to bars and bulbs, which means I am
changing the lighting of pretty much every map in the codebase.
I'm gonna uh, go check my work.
Alongside this I intend to give lighting some depth. So if there's room
to make a space warmer, or highlight light colors from other sources, I
will do that.
(Images as examples)
I also want to work on that other goal of mine, making breaking lights
matter. So I'll be doing what I can to ensure you only need to break one
light to make a meaningful change in the scene.
This is semi complicated by one light source not ever actually reaching
fullbright on its own, but we do what we must because we can.
I'm as I hope you know biased towards darker spaces, I think contrast
has vibes.
In particular I do not think strong lights really suit maintenance.
Most of what is used there are bulbs, so I'm planning on replacing most
uses with low power bulbs, to keep light impacts to rooms, alongside
reducing the amount of lights placed in the main tunnels
**If you take issue with this methodology please do so NOW**, I don't
want to have to do another pass over things.
Oh also I'm saving station maps for last since ruins are less likely to
get touched in mapping march and all.
### Misc + Finishing Thoughts
Light templates support mirroring vars off typepaths using a subtype,
which means all the templates added here do not require updating if the
source type changes somehow. I'd like to expand the template list at
some point, perhaps in future.
I've opened this as a draft to make my intentions to make my changes to
lights known, and to serve as motivation for all the map changes I need
to do.
### Farish Future
I'm unhappy with how we currently configure lights. I would like a
system that more directly matches the idea of drawing falloff curves,
along with allowing for different falloffs for different colors,
alongside extending the idea to angle falloff.
This would make out of engine lighting easier, allow for nicer looking
lights (red to pink, blue to purple, etc), and improve accessibility by
artists.
This is slightly far off, because I have other obligations and it's
kinda complicated, but I'd like to mention it cause it's one of my many
pipedreams.
## Changelog
🆑
add: Added angle lighting, applies it to most wall lights!
add: Adds a lighting prototyping tool, mappers go try it out (it's
locked behind the mapping verb)

## About The Pull Request
/obj/structure/closet/mini_fridge is now a clean nice one, which only
spawns beverages and does not have that cockroach reference in the
description, and starts off anchored. now
/obj/structure/closet/mini_fridge/grimy works like the old mini-fridge,
with syndicake, moldy bread, and now the chance of an ACTUAL cockroach.
I've replaced them on maps according to each one's needs, So, as an
example, Northstar gets a regular one (it var edited it before) while
tram maints get the grimy subtype.
mini-fridges now can properly go over tables, so you don't have to
deconstruct said table to put it on top again.
## Why It's Good For The Game
I've found the need for a nice subtype while doing a ruin, and so has a
few other mappers apparently, as northstar had a var edited variant. The
fact that it couldn't go over tables and started off unanchored was
annoying on tram and icebox, where it is present on the kitchen and you
could easily push it to the ground and suffer.
## Changelog
🆑
qol: It has been issued brand new mini-fridges for our active stations,
Featuring more booze and less moldy pizza!

## About The Pull Request
Hey there,
A pretty bad bug (#76226) got through, but it was fixed pretty quickly
in #76241 (cf92862daf). I realized that if
we were testing all the away missions, that this could theoretically get
caught and not happen again. Regardless, unit testing gateway missions
has been on my to-do list for a while now, and I finally got it nailed
down.
Basically, we just have a really small "station" map with the bare bones
(_teeny_ bit of fluff, maploading is going to take 30 seconds tops
anyways let me have my kicks) with a JSON map datum flag that causes it
to load all away missions in the codebase (which are all in one folder).
Just in case some admins were planning on invoking the proc on
`SSmapping`, I also decided to gate a `tgui_alert()` behind it because
you never can be too sure of what people think is funny these days (it
really does lock up your game for a second or so at a time).
I also alphabetized the maps.txt config because that was annoying me.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Things that break on production could(?) be caught in unit testing? I
don't know if the linked issue I mentioned above would have been caught
in retrospect, but it's likely to catch more than a few upcoming bugs
(like the UO45 atmospherics thing at the very top) and ensure that these
gateway missions, which tend to be the most neglected part of mapping,
stay bug-free.
This is also helpful in case someone makes a new away mission and wants
to see if stuff's broken. Helps out maptainers a bit because very, very
technically broken mapping will throw up runtimes. Neato.
## Changelog
Nothing that players should be concerned about.
Let me know if there's a better way to approach this, but I really think
that having a super-duper light map with the bare basics to load up
gateway missions and then all nine-ish gateway missions can sequentially
load during init. I can't think of a better way to do it aside from some
really ugly `#ifdef` shit. Also also, it has the added benefit of being
a map that will always load your away mission without touching a single
shred of config (and it's not likely to break if you follow sane
practices such as making your own areas)
Merging this is required for #76245

I'm going to chalk it up to how absolutely goreifying the old UO45
atmospherics was, so I just redid it to modern standards. Should be a
lot cleaner now, may have missed a few things so let me know.

Looks way cleaner, actual modern mapping standards for a map that hasn't
been touched in a _long_ while, less runtimes!!!
