## About The Pull Request
This PR kills the abstract internal and external typepaths for organs,
now replaced by an EXTERNAL_ORGAN flag to distinguish the two kinds.
This PR also fixes fox ears (from #87162, no tail is added) and
mushpeople's caps (they should be red, the screenshot is a tad
outdated).
And yes, you can now use a hair dye spray to recolor body parts like
most tails, podpeople hair, mushpeople caps and cat ears. The process
can be reversed by using the spray again.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Time-Green put some effort during the last few months to untie functions
and mechanics from external/internal organ pathing. Now, all that this
pathing is good for are a few typechecks, easily replaceable with
bitflags.
Also podpeople and mushpeople need a way to recolor their "hair". This
kind of applies to fish tails from the fish infusion, which colors can't
be selected right now. The rest is just there if you ever want to
recolor your lizard tail for some reason.
Proof of testing btw (screenshot taken before mushpeople cap fix, right
side has dyed body parts, moth can't be dyed, they're already fabolous):
## Changelog
🆑
code: Removed internal/external pathing from organs in favor of a bit
flag. Hopefully this shouldn't break anything about organs.
fix: Fixed invisible fox ears.
fix: Fixed mushpeople caps not being colored red by default.
add: You can now dye most tails, podpeople hair, mushpeople caps etc.
with a hair dye spray.

## About The Pull Request
The direction component outputs the direction of an entity if it's
within 7 tiles of the circuit. Since it already checks the distance, I
added distance as one of its outputs.
Besides that, I did a pass over the generics and shells and resized many
of them. Most I resized to be small or tiny, except for the airlock
shell, which I set to be bulky because it's a whole ass door. The shells
I didn't touch remain at 'normal' size.
1) All handheld shells set to small, compact remote set to tiny
2) all components and the generic of the circuit set to tiny
3) drone shell set to small
4) airlock shell set to bulky
## Why It's Good For The Game
Returning the distance spares any would be circuiteers from having to do
a labyrinthine set of calculations to determine distance themselves.
Making most circuits more portable makes them more attractive for people
to tote around.
## Changelog
🆑 Bisar
qol: The 'direction' circuit component now also returns the distance of
its target.
balance: Most circuit shells and the generic component and generic
circuit have had their size reduced.
balance: The airlock circuit shell has had its size increased.

## About The Pull Request
Further continous organizing and cleaning the Icons folder. There are
still some minior nitpicks left to do, but I reached my daily sanity
expenses limit again, and the faster these get in the less issues for
both me and others later. Also cleans some mess I caused by my blindness
last PR.

Saner spriters = better sprites
* Fuck you (refactors ur tails)
* Errors
* Wow. Pain.
* Fixes up probably everything
* finish up here
* Fixes hard del maybe
* original owner hard del
* garbage collection runtime
* suck my peen byond
* Mapped tails
* motherfucker.
* motherrfucker. again.
* Whooopppppsie
* yeah bad idea
* Turns out external organs literally just sat in nullspace forever if their parent was deleted, and didnt Remove() themselves, causing harddels.
* So anyways I repathed all organs
* Fixes
* really.
* unit test... test
* unit test-test but it passes linters this time because im a moh-ron
* I've lost track of what im doing at this point
* Hopefully fixes hard del?
* meh
* Update code/datums/dna.dm
* things n stuff
* repath from master pull
BCIs are a new shell that can be implanted in your brain through surgery or through a BCI Manipulation Chamber, which provide the ability to easily implant and remove BCIs. They are the same size as compact remotes and generally share the same limitations.
Also adds CIRCUIT_FLAG_HIDDEN, to hide components from the UI. I didn't end up needing this, but Watermelon said he had ideas for it, so eh.
Why It's Good For The Game
BCIs provide an interesting, stealthy input method for circuits. They are seen as a healthier alternative to nanites, and improve on them in several ways:
Circuits have limited manipulation of the world, and intentionally do not perform the ability to provide passive healing, revives, etc.
Circuits have a significantly better UI and UX than nanites.
Circuits regularly get content expansions, which means that as a side-effect, there'll often be new things to play with for BCIs.
Other point to make:
BCI implanters have no cloud, and instead require the BCI to be put inside the machine. This means it requires the attention of the scientist (or even just a box with them inside). With
Adds the ability to save/load circuits for admins. Adds the ability to duplicate modules in a round. #60222, which lets you reprint a circuit you made that round, this means you can print out lots of BCIs, rather than going through the tedium of constantly remaking it.
BCI implanters are not roundstart, but rather in the advanced shells node. This is essentially the same as nanites, except for the difference of nanites starting with all the machinery, but none of the powers.
Changelog
cl
add: Added brain-computer interface circuit shells.
/cl
Adds the airlock shell. The circuit has full control over the airlock.
Refactors USB code to be easier to use for less experienced coders.
Implements USB cables for the binary valve to be able to open/close the valve.
Adds a private channel for radios that only lets circuits with the same owner's ID to interact with it.
Converts most spans into span procs. Mostly used regex for this and sorted out any compile time errors afterwards so there could be some bugs.
Was initially going to do defines, but ninja said to make it into a proc, and if there's any overhead, they can easily be changed to defines.
Makes it easier to control the formatting and prevents typos when creating spans as it'll runtime if you misspell instead of silently failing.
Reduces the code you need to write when writing spans, as you don't need to close the span as that's automatically handled by the proc.
(Note from Lemon: This should be converted to defines once we update the minimum version to 514. Didn't do it now because byond pain and such)
