About The Pull Request
Adds the Enhanced Interrogation Chamber as a BEPIS reward.
This security-only machine is able to implant a deep-rooted trigger phrase onto a subject; if they hear that phrase after the procedure, they will immediately enter a state of hypnotic trance, which can be used to demand truthful answers for your ongoing investigation.
The enslavement of criminal and non-criminal subjects is frowned upon by space law. Do not abuse the Enhanced Interrogation Chamber for personal gain.
Bad choice or mishandling of trigger words may lead to loss of control over the subject.
Side effects include dizziness, nausea, confusion, vomit, loss of eyesight, violent tendencies, loss of sanity, depression, oppression, loss of free will, spontaneous hypnotic trance, loss of hair, death.
Use with care.
Why It's Good For The Game
Make your own Manchurian Candidate!
Allows "rehabilitation" of dangerous criminals by security, which is more interesting than straight-up execution.
Could lead to fun situations if a team antag is caught and forced to be a mole.
It could also be used by any antag who manages to get to the sec protolathe.
However, the "conversion" is still shaky! The main cure is surgery, as the triggered trance is effectively just a brain trauma, healable with surgery. On top of this, even if the subject is unable to hear their trigger phrase, if someone else knows it they can override commands at any time. Even if that doesn't happen, it's possible that another message sneaks in before you can give your command, intercepting the hypnosis.
On top of this, the chamber has a 10% chance of giving the hypnotic stupor trauma instead of the triggered trance, making the subject even more of a wildcard.
Effectively, this is a very powerful tool in the antag-vs-security conflict, but over-reliance on it will probably bite back in amusing ways.

add: Added the Enhanced Interrogation Chamber as a BEPIS researchable tech.
add: The EIC can be used to implant trigger phrases in subjects that cause an instant hypnotic trance.

AddComponent/AddElement now support named arguments. This requires passing around an argument list instead of using actual proc args which a bit gross but we can blame byond for forcing this.
InheritComponent uses mirrored init arguments instead of an argument list which means no more accessing it via index to get to the same arguments as in init.
As a small bonus I restructured dcs defines to be a bit more manageable. Mainly just splits them into separate files and gives them their own folder.

About The Pull Request
This makes space suits use a cell and warm the wearer, This was handled by the handle_environment proc in the past with an override to make the suits work. This corrects this issue, and removes the override.
All space suits will have a cell installed at round start, this cell will last 15 min on average usage.
The cell cover can be toggled by alt+clicking (press the button), or using a crowbar (just pry it open) on the suit.
With the cover open you can remove the cell by using the suit in hand, or ctrl+clicking the suit.
As well with the cover open you can use a screwdriver to set the thermal regulator's temperature. The normal range is 20 c to 45 c, do not use an emag on the suit to increase the temperature range.
Examining the suit will report the temperature setting and the cells charge, if the cover is open you will also be able to see the type of cell that is in the suit.
Suit storage units will now charge the cells in suits, they will also require power to operate properly now.
Why It's Good For The Game
Space suits should be managing the wearers temp in space not using some override.
Lizards now have a portable heater in the form of any space suit.
Now that suits need a cell it is not as easy to spend all session in a space suit.
New interactions with hardsuits and emp's give nice combat buff to an underused item.
Nuke ops can raid xeno for some nice yellow cells, or science for a big old bluespace cell.

Nanotrasen has just come out with a new clown tech design, Plastic Duckys™. Move aside expensive rubber donk.co and waffle.co brand duckies. These quality* made ducks are fabricated at our finest research stations with industrial-grade** protolathes. Made from chemically processed plastics from our expert*** chemists!
Plastic ducky
Why It's Good For The Game
plastic uses are neato. This may be controversial as it ads a potentially unlimited source of honks but if people think this is really an issue then I would consider adding a bananaium cost that would make it on par with other printable honk items.
