36a41f584d Camera consoles no longer constantly check camera list (#78822)
## About The Pull Request

I would like camera sorting to be handled without having to constantly
get the entire list of cameras and sorting itself, but this occasion it
isn't even necessary, and was only added because I wanted to keep it
consistent with old behavior. This wasn't the best idea, and this is
trying to make amends with that.

Instead of getting the entire list of cameras when swapping cameras, it
instead gets that specific camera from the list and sets your active
camera to that. To do so, camera consoles now have a ref to the camera,
rather than going by name alone.

## Why It's Good For The Game

Explained in the about section mostly, we're no longer checking through
and sorting the entire list of cameras every single time you swap from
one camera to another.

## Changelog

Nothing player-facing.

f5188c9c4d Security Officers can now Download the Plexagon Crew Manifest PDA App (#78678)
## About The Pull Request

Despite starting with the Plexagon app, security officers did not have
sufficient access to actually download the app onto new machines. Now
they do.
## Why It's Good For The Game

Its weird and unintuitive to start with an app but not be able to
download it if you have to get a new PDA.

aaff861c90 pdas now use their cells more (#78580)
## About The Pull Request

So one aspect of PDAs that I quite liked previously was managing and
upgrading your power.
This was lost when all cell parts got removed, mostly, and now I'd like
to re-add it.
PDAs and Tablets now use more power each second it's on
Programs being active/idle now take charge too.
And all this now takes ``seconds_per_tick`` into account.

Screenshots of APC use before and after having 6 programs open at once

![image](https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/assets/53777086/14699ae7-19a7-4eb6-a211-5944cc1867d0)

![image](https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/assets/53777086/804fedde-0d5a-43a9-9e61-34139257a16f)

PDA default power cells have a max charge of 1000, each cell use is
around ``1.00970340315`` power, which is ``1.01013789399`` w/ 2 programs
in idle and 1 active program (which is what PDAs are capable of). This
means it takes about 990 ticks to fully drain your power, or about 50
minutes, at max use.

This is completely blasted away the moment you put anything beyond a t1
cell inside of it, which is unfortunate but what can you do about tiered
parts being so poor.

The problem of no public PDA chargers are alleviated by
https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/pull/78600

### Update

The PDA flashlight being on now also drains the battery 25% times
faster. PDA running out of charge now also turns the flashlight off.

## Why It's Good For The Game

You may or may not have to actually charge your PDA once in a round now,
maybe. I liked this part of tablets and would like to see it brought
back, managing your power to use your apps is important to ensure you're
not just using all apps 24/7

Because this also adds the functionality to add/remove power cells
again, it opens up to some minor little pranks/messing with people that
isn't completely destroying their tools, as well as some minor
upgradeability.

## Changelog

🆑
balance: You can now remove and replace power cells from PDAs (with
screwdriver).
balance: PDAs now drain their power cells harder, and also take into
account active programs & their flashlight being on.
balance: PDAs running out of charge now turn their flashlights off.

a3849062b8 Feature: bitrunner, a new supply role (READY) (#77259)
## About The Pull Request
[Design doc](https://hackmd.io/@shadowh4nd/r1P7atPjn) 

Adds a new supply role centered on short dungeon-esque runs with a focus
on unifying the job with the fun part. Some virtual domains are combat
related, some are silly, some focus on "objectives". Avatar health is
linked to your physical presence and retries are limited.

## Why It's Good For The Game
Content, firstly, and moreso being supply department content.

The framework that this implements is a great (preauthorized)
replacement for two systems which are collecting dust: BEPIS and the
gateway. They integrate into this system and it's a direct upgrade.

This adds a way for the players on station to generate materials (if
that remains). The nice part about it is that I can throw balance and
believability to the wind, as unlike its unrelated predecessor VR or
away missions, bitrunning entirely washes its hands of the map and mobs
each reboot.

It offers a very expandable map framework to add content and it's all
fairly well documented.

I'd like to add a feature that represents the idea that jobs don't have
to be mundane and "external" jobs can stay tied to the main gameplay
loop.

## Changelog

add: Some flair for the new bitrunning vendor.
add: Adds a new antagonist for the virtual domain only. Short lived
ghost role that fights bitrunners.
del: Removes the BEPIS machine, moves its tech into the Bitrunning
vendor.

aa820c08fe Oldstation now has their own RND (#78132)
## About The Pull Request

This PR does many things and I expect to be asked to atomize some stuff.

### Oldstation Additions

Oldstation now has their own research server, generating their own
points. To help alleviate major concerns, they have a few stuff to help
with this:
- They now have a pre-built operating computer
- They now have an Autopsy scanner
- They now have access to Experimental Dissection

Experimental Dissection is the old dissection, giving research points in
the form of paper notes on completion. They must be turned in to the RND
server (only works on the Oldstation one, so you can't abuse this) for
points. This was an idea I've had for some time, as Oldstation is used
somewhat as a representation of how ss13 used to be (through its use of
directional windows (before they got removed, but I'd like to bring them
back), old IDs, RTGs, and old engines before they got removed from the
game fully)

Considering there are 11 alien mobs in Oldstation, there is 27.5k
research points to get from alien corpses, enough to bring them up to
speed with whatever they wish to do. This is their 'alternative' for
experiments (which they can still do if they want, but it is very hard
to do, outside of dissection which is needed for the node).

This surgery isn't repeatable, isn't upgradable, and isn't removed by
being healed. It is not mutually exclusive with autopsy (so you can't
ruin yourself doing the wrong surgery).

### Other stuff

- Ninjas now drain RND points from the server they drain from, rather
than always hitting science
- Syncing machines to research roundstart is now a macro, and now
immediately syncs to a server on your Z-level. Machines will
automatically connect to the Science servers if none else are available.

### non-player facing

- Science, Admin, and Oldstation techwebs are now no longer vars on
research, but stored in research's list of techwebs.
- ``get_available_servers`` and ``find_valid_servers`` are now procs on
the research subsystem, rather than the experisci component.
- Oldstation code has been split into separate files.

## Why It's Good For The Game

Oldstation is one of my favorite ruins, but it is also one of the
largest complaints for RND (along with Golems) because they use the
station's Science nodes & points (I recently tried de-hardcoding Science
stuff to help prepare for this, but I didn't get everything in advance).

The complaint stems from these ghost roles, who are meant to be a fun
activity to do while waiting for the next round, using the station's
research points for their own stuff, completely untrackable unless
someone goes out of their way to grief a ghost spawn just for using
points to get things they need. These roles make their own servers to
drain the station, and I find that unfun and quite boring for everyone-
it's also not very flavorful, why would Charliestation know of the
station's RND to take advantage of it?

This hopes to fix those issues, make Charliestation more worthwhile, and
more flavorful.

## Changelog

🆑
fix: Getting a node researched now properly makes it no longer hidden.
fix: Ninjas draining RD servers now drains it from the connected
techweb, rather than sniping Science.
balance: Machines will first try to connect to a techweb with servers on
their z-level, with the Science techweb remaining as fallback.
add: Oldstation RND, comes with their own Techweb and special surgery to
gain research points through dissecting Xenomorphs.

fe104cf8da pAIs control a PDA they're inserted into (#78103)
## About The Pull Request

This PR lets pAIs inserted into a PDA to control the PDA of their owner.
They can see their own pAI configurations but cannot edit any of it.
They also can't eject themselves from it.
This means they can receive and send PDA messages as their owner, acting
like a personal secretary

This also adds support for multiple people using a PDA and its UI
updating for all of them and PDA messages being received and responded
to from multiple people under the same PDA
It also removes pAI camera in favor of using siliconcamera, which is the
same thing; this just cuts down on some copy paste.

I also reverted PDA's ringer being off preventing messages from being
sent to your chat, silent mode was meant to prevent only the ringing
sound.

## Why It's Good For The Game

pAIs can now do a little bit more to help their owners on a personal
level, and adds support for more stuff like this in the future (an idea
I had was being able to hack into PDAs in the same way the CE can hack
into APCs remotely)

This is a re-PR of https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/pull/76445 but
it's a little better this time and does not remove the PDA Messenger app
from pAIs.

## Changelog

🆑
fix: PDAs being on silent no longer prevents PDAs from being sent to
your chat, again.
add: pAIs inserted into a PDA can now control the PDA, and will receive
PDA messages sent to it (and can respond under the PDA's name).

## About The Pull Request
**Simplified version of #72179**

### SOUNDS

Changes next sound files:
- airraid.ogg
- bloblarm.ogg
- alert.ogg

Adds next sound files:
- notice3.ogg
- announce_syndi.ogg

Now `announce.ogg` plays when a Captain joins round, and
`announce_dig.ogg` for Requests Console announcements.
The `announce_syndi.ogg` plays when an announcement is made through an
emagged communications console. It also plays when the evacuation
shuttle is fully hijacked or Cultists fully corrupt the evacuation
shuttle.
You can listen to them all here:

Now the communications console Status Display menu replaced the "Red
Alert" display option with the "Current Alert" which showcases the
current alert display.
Also, the Status Display menu has an additional "Radiation" display
option.
## Why It's Good For The Game

I believe this Pull Request is a good game for a couple of reasons:

1. It better conveys the gravity of emergency situations, such as Code
Red, by utilizing a more intimidating and recognizable sound. This gives
more weight to these situations, making them feel more urgent and
important in the game. Players always tend to not notice that it's in
action.
2. The replacement of the old and outdated Status Display sprites with
newer, more eye-catching ones is a great improvement. This helps to
emphasize the importance of emergency situations even further by making
them more noticeable. Status Displays was one of the last wall-mounts
using ancient sprites.
3. The Captain's arrival using another sound effect from other
announcements gives more status to the Captain as the ultimate head of
the station.
4. Heads announcement using `announce_dig.ogg` makes the sound itself
more used outside of SM cascade, and also makes Head announcements more
noticeable.
5. Emagged console using `announce_syndi.ogg` making Traitor
announcements more noticeable. Also, it is played after evac shuttle is
fully hijacked or corrupted by Cultists giving a more ominous effect
## Changelog

fully corrupting evacuation shuttle now plays more ominous sound
sound: Making announcements through Requests Console now plays a more
noticeable sound
image: Status Displays sprites have been fully changed. Now they include
displays for every Security Level
qol: The "Red Alert" button in the Communications console status display
menu has been replaced with a "Current Alert" button showing the current
station Security Level display on Status Displays

1837a5f393 [NO GBP] Add some istype guards to the PDA messenger's get_messengers proc (#78070)
## About The Pull Request

Read title, not having these checks can knock out the messenger for
everyone for the entire round
## Why It's Good For The Game

I didn't think about hard deletes in my original NT Messenger PR, and as
far as I know this hasn't happened on this codebase yet.
However this PR doesn't only help downstreams that struggle with hard
deletes, it also implements some pretty critical guards as not having a
messenger for an entire round is pretty bad and sometimes hard deletes
are very hard to track and fix, so it could potentially break the
messenger for a lot of rounds.

17e16ad0c2 Replaces Camera bug with Camera tablet app (#77713)
## About The Pull Request

Replaces the Traitor's Camera Bug item with an application that allows
you to view camera apps.
The difference between this app and the Security one is that it does not
have an access requirement, does not make noise (it didn't previously
due to a bug, fixed in this PR), and can be installed on PDAs.
This can also be installed from syndienet, which means nukies now have a
way to see the station cameras while off the ship.

Adds Syndicate app disks, which are made of Gold. This is only used by
the Camera app as of right now.

I also fixed some issues along the way;
- Camera tablet app now properly shows cameras
- It now properly makes the noises it is supposed to
- It clears the viewers properly on the ui being closed or the app being
exited.

Syndicate app disks ddelete their apps upon being transferred over (like
maintenance disks), trying to remain consistent with previous behavior.

I also made this for a [personal project I am currently working
on](https://hackmd.io/XLt5MoRvRxuhFbwtk4VAUA). I could just make this UI
be TGUI, but I thought it could be worth trying to turn it into a better
item first.

Tracking people is much simpler now- You choose anyone from a list of
people found on cameras, and it will try to find a camera that sees
them. It follows them until you close the app or switch camera.

https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/assets/53777086/1536ebb9-0c4f-45bb-b593-f98791ea6d23

## Why It's Good For The Game

The Camera Bug is one of the worst traitor items as of current. You can
remotely shut off a single camera, something that can be done with basic
tools you are likely carrying around anyways, and uses an HTML clunky UI
to flip through cameras.
This new Traitor item makes it much easier to use, since the camera
consoles are something you are likely already used to.
It also means emagging a tablet is slightly more useful, and golden data
disks are pretty cool.

Unfortunately this means that they no longer grant illegal tech, because
otherwise you can simply clone the app infinitely for personal use, and
deconstruct the disk itself for tech. This can be grinded into gold, but
I think if we want an illegal tech item, it'll have to find a new host.

78e96f2f12 Reworks how AI tracking is handled & reorganizes it (#77776)
## About The Pull Request

Completely reworks how AI tracking is handled, this has no in-game
effects.
This moves nearly all AI tracking handling onto ``/datum/tracking``,
which previously was pretty bad. I tried documenting as much as I can,
making comments actually useful and give accurate information.

Turns ``get_camera_list`` into a global proc, which we now use for
camera consoles (including the app), cutting down on copy paste in 2
areas and standardizing its behavior/backend.

## Why It's Good For The Game

I wanted to generalize this behavior so I can use it for tracking
players in https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/pull/77713 - This
helps me do that.
Also the current state of AI tracking code is pretty poor and hopefully
this improves that area.

Closes https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/issues/42355

## Changelog

🆑
refactor: AI's player-tracking eyes received an unwanted obligatory
update, and should now not tell you that a player is untrackable when
they clearly obviously can be.

ed8445a312 Adds sanity checking to prefs checks, fixing a bug that can cause emotes to stop displaying intermittently (#76946)
## About The Pull Request

This PR adds a bunch of sanity checking to the `prefs.chat_toggles` var
accesses.

Prefs can be null when client is creating/deleting and this causes a
runtime where you might not be able to use emotes.


![image](https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/assets/13398309/d89649d4-19c7-439f-b080-332709196505)

EDIT: as per suggestion I stopped masking the issue and added stack
traces instead. And made them into helper procs to avoid code
duplication.

For some of these procs it is important that we are able to continue
running to get to the end. **A ghost having null prefs should not stop
everyone else from hearing/seeing the emote.**

So now they will put the stack trace and keep on trucking if that issue
occurs. This is the main 'point' of the PR, which has seemingly gotten
bogged down in the creation of the two helper procs--apologies.

See https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/pull/70404 for essentially
the same issue but applied to chat messages. I have gone back and
replaced the duplicated code from that to use the new helper procs
instead.

## Why It's Good For The Game

Anything chat related is a bad place to runtime. Some messages can take
a while to type out and to have it not display is frustrating at worst,
possibly detrimental if you have to communicate something urgently.

ebbc45b161 Improved PDA Direct Messenger (#75820)
## About The Pull Request

Fixes #76708, Closes #76729 (sorry Zephyr)

This PR expands the Direct Messenger UI, adding a chat screen for each
available messenger that you can find, and moving message sending over
to TGUI.

This chat screen includes a message log that displays messages sent by
you as well as messages received from the recipient. This gets rid of
the previous chat log, which just had all messages thrown together that
you received or have sent, in one big list.

Furthermore, all messaging is now done inside the UI. This kills all
TGUI popups you would ever need to send messages forever (except for
quick replies). Use the input bar on the bottom, press Enter or the Send
button, and it sends your message. Spam mode is now done in the UI too,
via a text field you can find in the contacts list.

Additionally, because I have a habit of blowing things massively out of
scope, I've also completely refactored how messages and chat logs are
stored in the PDA messenger. I plan on using this in a PR that merges
the chat client with the messenger, sometime in the future. Sorry this
took so long.

Stuff left to do before I open this PR for review:
- [x] Add "recent messages"
- [x] Add "unread messages"
- [x] Add message drafts
- [x] Make photo sending not shit
- [x] Implement the edge cases for automated and rigged messages
- [x] Make sure shit isn't fucked
- [x] Profit

## Why It's Good For The Game

The UI has largely stayed the same since modular tablets were added a
year ago. Even better, direct messaging has been the same since PDAs
were first added *more than a decade ago*. Imagine that.

Now we finally actually (!) make use of those brand new features that we
got from the TGUI switch in this regard.

Their PR reminded me I wanted to de-hardcode this list at some point and

## About The Pull Request

Removes all of the duplicate global lists for specific machine types

Previously we have machines in multiple global lists, such as airlocks
being in GLOB.doors, GLOB.airlocks, GLOB.machines.

ccf547c142 Adds an extra malf AI ability: Remote emagging. Also tidies up emag code and coverts a lot of things to balloon alerts (#76669)
## About The Pull Request

New malf AI upgrade

Remote safety overrides: Mid-cost, Mid-supply. Allows the AI to remotely
emag things it can see and can access.
1. Very useful for psychological warfare (Emagging APCs to throw the
crew off their trail)
2. Logically makes sense - why, of all things, can the AI not emag
anything when it's fundumentally integrated with the station's
electronics?
3. Generally speaking can only access things that make sense for it to
access - it cannot emag ethereals, sadly

In order for this to work, emag_act now returns a boolean, designating
if the emag had any effect.
While I was in there, I also added args to every single emag_act I could
find and added far more feedback/converted a lot of things to balloon
alerts to allow the AI to see if its emag had any effect.
## Why It's Good For The Game

It just makes sense that the AI, the most electronically-sensitive
entity in the game, would be able to emag things. Plus, more options
given to malf that aren't strictly MURDER KILL MURDER are always a plus,
especially if they allow for fancier plays.
## Changelog
🆑
add: New malf ability: Remote safety overrides. Allows the AI to
remotely emag things it has access to.
code: emag_act() now returns a boolean designating it's success in
emagging

c0e46fabf7 Standardize Welder Fuel Usage (#76021)
Remove welder fuel usage from all actions except attacking and leaving
it on
most welder tasks require a minimum of 1u of fuel, some longer tasks
require a minimum of 2 or 3u welders now drain 1u every 5 seconds
they're active
## About The Pull Request
Prior to this PR welder fuel usage was random, a lot of tasks didn't use
any welder fuel and welders were basically near infinite so long as you
didn't use them for combat, it took 26 seconds of activity to drain 1u
of fuel, that means an emergency welder alone could run for 5 minutes
straight before needing a refuel

After this PR all welders will drain 1u every 5 seconds instead of every
26 seconds, but welding objects won't require extra fuel anymore, making
the fuel usage much more consistent.

resolves #55018
## Why It's Good For The Game
Actually makes fuel tanks useful and relevant without making it
obnoxious to do repetitive quick tasks like turn rods into plates,
there's actually a reason to upgrade off the emergency welder now since
it lasts 50 seconds rather than 5 minutes

cf7295acb7 [no gbp] Golem mineral functionality tweaks/fixes (#75343)
## About The Pull Request

Fixes a couple of things people have pointed out about golem
transformations.

- Diamond golems now stop being invisible when they attack or throw
something, they also turn invisible a bit slower.
- Using a bluespace knot takes 2 seconds instead of 3 seconds.
- Bananium Golems only slip you if they are lying down.

In order to achieve that last one I refactored the slipperiness
component to take an optional extra callback, and then killed a subtype
of it which could be replaced with passing in a callback. I tested it
and it seems to work the same as it used to.

These are largely how things were supposed to work and I just overlooked
them.
I am sure this won't be the last PR of a similar vein while people try
these out, provided that I actually hear anything they are saying about
it.

## Why It's Good For The Game

Diamond golems shouldn't be able to attack you while remaining invisible
and untargetable even if it is funny.
Clown golems aren't supposed to be able to slip you by swapping places
with you even if it is funny.
The bluespace hand was basically just worse than using the crystal and
not eating it, maybe still needs another buff after this one.

## Changelog

🆑
fix: Diamond Golems can no longer attack or throw things and remain
invisible.
fix: Bananium Golems are only slippery if you actually tread on them
(aka: while they are resting).
balance: Golem bluespace teleportation is slightly quicker.

by a named argument in the pirates case, and cargo_exports being
evaluated as true in another).

This PR fixes the arguments, preventing possible bugs in the future.
This also removes the code that set if the cargo shuttle could sell
contraband and emagged items, as that is no longer a thing. I talked
with @ArcaneMusic about this, and they agreed, albeit with the caveat
that if someone finds a good use case for this feature, it could be
saved.

This PR also autodocs several export related files, and cleans up
various single and two letter vars.

## Why It's Good For The Game

Cleaner code, unused code removed.

77a4306df7 Coroner Tweaks (#75250)
I played some as coroner, and realized there were a few things that were
either errors in the original PR, left out, or that could be added to
improve the feel of the job a little more. It ended up covering a fair
bit of ground, with a number of changes, but i'll go over the biggest
parts here:

First up! jumpsuits and jumpskirts! the medical doctor job, despite
starting with scrubs, still has a jumpsuit and skirt available in the
medidrobe. So, i added a pair for coroners to the mortidrobe, enjoy!
(and thanks to the kind morgue skeleton for modeling these with me!)
also, you may notice some black pixels on my head - that's because i
added a black scrubcap to the mortidrobe as well! the sprites were done
for this already, so when i noticed it was absent i opted to include it
here, for consistency with the other scrub types in the game.
next up, we have the other addition of this PR, the coroner's medkit
this is mainly for storing and consolidating coroner job items, in a
flavorful and interesting way. the coroner spawns with the larger
variant, that has more storage, but can still only hold up to small
items. it also includes a few more flavor items, that the compact
version lacks. the smaller version can be obtained in the autopsy kit
from cargo, and one more is available in the mortidrobe.
smaller changes:
i fixed some weird transparent pixels on the autopsy scanner itself, and
cleaned up some incorrect shading on the obj icon for the black scrubs.
before and after here:
i also gave the coroner their own type of pda, since they were
previously inheriting the medical one. this one matches their color
palette! in addition to this, i swapped the botkeeper app they
previously had for plexagon crew manifest.

4ffef6be6d Fixes issues with closing apps on tablets (#75117)
## About The Pull Request

- Fixes background apps not reloading the UI
- Standardizes opening/closing/backgrounding apps
- Simplifies the way apps are closed instead of having 2 procs, one on
the PC and one on the program, being named the same thing (wtf)
- Removes program states. They existed so computers can know to update
their UI every process tick, but since we now do this event based, this
is no longer needed, which is good.
- Replaces the 'forced' arg from kill_program as it was completely
unused, with ``reload_ui``, which is now used to open the UI on close,
and not to when we don't want it to.
- Closing background apps no longer reloads the entire UI
- Responding to an NT Message will no longer open the UI on your face.

## Why It's Good For The Game

Closes https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/issues/75046
Closes https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/issues/75108

Makes tablet UIs more responsive and lag less, not checking if a program
is closed every process to close it, and makes responding to messages
not a hassle every time.
Also makes the code easier to understand/read,

## Changelog

🆑
fix: Tablets' minimize apps feature works again.

f2fd69a49a Minerals have been refactored so costs and minerals in items are now in terms of mineral defines. (#75052)
Ladies, Gentlemen, Gamers. You're probably wondering why I've called you
all here (through the automatic reviewer request system). So, mineral
balance! Mineral balance is less a balance and more of a nervous white
dude juggling spinning plates on a high-wire on his first day. The fact
it hasn't failed after going on this long is a miracle in and of itself.

This PR does not change mineral balance. What this does is moves over
every individual cost, both in crafting recipes attached to an object
over to a define based system. We have 3 defines:

`sheet_material_amount=2000` . Stock standard mineral sheet. This being
our central mineral unit, this is used for all costs 2000+.
`half_sheet_material_amount=1000` . Same as above, but using iron rods
as our inbetween for costs of 1000-1999.
`small_material_amount=100` . This hits 1-999. This covers... a
startlingly large amount of the codebase. It's feast or famine out here
in terms of mineral costs as a result, items are either sheets upon
sheets, or some fraction of small mats.

Shout out to riot darts for being the worst material cost in the game. I
will not elaborate.

Regardless, this has no functional change, but it sets the groundwork
for making future changes to material costs much, MUCH easier, and moves
over to a single, standardized set of units to help enforce coding
standards on new items, and will bring up lots of uncomfortable balance
questions down the line.

For now though, this serves as some rough boundaries on how items costs
are related, and will make adjusting these values easier going forward.

Except for foam darts.

I did round up foam darts.

Adjusting mineral balance on the macro scale will be as simple as
changing the aforementioned mineral defines, where the alternative is a
rats nest of magic number defines. ~~No seriously, 11.25 iron for a foam
dart are you kidding me what is the POINT WHY NOT JUST MAKE IT 11~~

Items individual numbers have not been adjusted yet, but we can
standardize how the conversation can be held and actually GET SOMEWHERE
on material balance as opposed to throwing our hands up or ignoring it
for another 10 years.

1c4166c81c Tablet UI update (mostly fixes) (#74844)
## About The Pull Request

Tablet UIs are now changed when opening/closing an app, instead of
constantly checking for a UI change every ui update.

Program UI acts no longer call parent, as it was unnecessary, Computers
are the ones that should be calling it.

Fixes a ton of problems with static data not updating, such as in
Messenger, ID management, Siliconnect, and Chat client

Chat Client's Admin mode also works again, which was broken when
accesses to check was turned into a list.

Turns a few lists in Robocontrol into static ones when we aren't
changing anything, and makes it actually scan your ID's access.

Fixes budget ordering being unable to show the cart/call the cargo
shuttle.

## Why It's Good For The Game

While I can't seem to find a single issue report on any of the above,
these are still problems that should be fixed.

## Changelog

🆑
fix: SiliConnect can download borg logs again.
fix: The RD can once again enable Admin mode on Wirecarp
fix: NT IRN can once again see the shopping cart and call the cargo
shuttle.
fix: Chat Client, ID Management and Messenger should now update their
UIs properly.
code: PDAs will hopefully not lag as much when clicking on buttons (such
as in ID management).

0181187c03 Adds mobility_ui bypass flag (#72934)
A flag that lets you use an interactive TGUI screen while laying down.

Adds this flag to the PDA.

You're relaxing on a bed or something and it's annoying having to stand
up just to reply to a PDA message and then lay back down. We know how to
text without dropping the PDA on our face. (Usually)

The flag can be applied to anything else you should be able to interact
with while laying down.
