About The Pull Request
Extools maptick stuff is in the game. Stolen from BeeStation/BeeStation-Hornet#1119, improves performance. Requires ex-tools on the server, though.
Explosions have been refactored to do the actual exploding in a subsystem.
Credit to goon.
Here's some videos!
Why It's Good For The Game
Basically instant max-caps now.
We can now give more of a tick over to the sending of map updates

About The Pull Request
1 config change and 1 preference change:
Adds a config option AUTO_DEADMIN_TIMEGATE that, when defined, only enforces config force-deadmins for all roles/sec/command/silicon/antag for the first X seconds in the round. After this time expires, the game will defer to the individual's deadmin settings.
Adds a preference for admins to ignore being summoned by cult ghosts, starts disabled by default. Nice for when you're sitting around observing a cultist and don't want to be bugged by them suddenly summoning you!
I'm not 100% with dealing with prefs and configs but stock settings preserve previous functionality and must be manually enabled to have effect. Please look it over and offer advice if changes are needed!
Why It's Good For The Game
I don't like the auto-deadmin config option being on in the first place since it's annoying to get deadmin'd when I'm testing antag stuff, but I spoke to @Twaticus who indicated they like having it for roundstart, but agreed it was annoying when trying to test stuff later in the round. This is a simple compromise that lets config-controllers still force people to deadmin at the starts of shifts where most of the proscribed roles are assigned, while not bothering other admins who make themselves a blob at the thunderdome an hour in to test something.
As for the cult ghosts, I hate suddenly getting summoned as a cult ghost while I'm adminning, but other people like being able to be summoned while currently admin'd, so pref time.
Changelog
🆑 Ryll/Shaps
config: Added AUTO_DEADMIN_TIMEGATE which allows config force deadmin settings to only apply for the first X seconds in a round. Starts disabled
admin: New preference to ignore being summoned as a cult ghost while admin'd, starts disabled

The client variable can be nulled at any point between proc calls during Login(), at the very least between parent calls for sure. That can produce dirty additions to mob lists among other less problematic runtimes.
This attempts to handle it.
About The Pull Request
It annoyed me that we have a perfectly good frag grenade item, and a perfectly good shrapnel component, but no crossover episode between the two. This remedies that, and does a lot, lot more.

Big points:
Adds new component: pellet_cloud, which can be used by ammo casings, guns, and landmines to spray shrapnel and display aggregate hit messages ("You're hit by 6 buckshot pellets!" vs "You're hit by the buckshot pellet in the X" x6). All gun ammo that shoot multiple pellets now use this component on firing.
Adds stingbangs, premium less-lethal grenades that shoot off lots of stinger pellets, to cargo. Frag grenades are also reworked to have smaller booms, but shoot off lots of shrapnel shards. You can jump on top of these grenades to absorb a portion of the shrapnel to save those around you! There's an achievement for dying this way, called "Look Out, Sir!"
Projectiles can now embed items/shrapnel. Adds .38 DumDum ammo to cargo that does less damage and has negative armor pen, but can embed in people. This is the only ammo that currently embeds.
Bullets can now ricochet off walls, structures, and machinery (harder surfaces are more likely to ricochet). Only standard .38 and Match Grade .38/.357/L6 ammo can ricochet, with Match Grade being much better at ricocheting. You can buy Match Grade .38 from cargo and Match Grade L6 ammo from the nuke uplink, while Match .357 is admin only.
Armor now protects you from harmful embeds, taking the better of the bullet/bomb armor on the affected limb. Armor penetration can modify this of course, and many blunt embeds like stingbangs and DumDum bullets are significantly worse if you have even 1 armor.
Other misc fixes/changes
Refactored the embed element a bunch and fixed it creating new elements for every instance rather than expected bespoke behavior. There are new /obj/item helpers for modifying and adding embedding.
Fixes#49989: Spears can no longer embed in turfs cause their sprite is annoying to me, it's generally harder for most things to embed in turfs
Fixes#49741: New carbon helpers for removing embedded objects
Fixes#46416: Handles embedded objects getting qdel'd or moved while embedded
Renamed the old shrapnel component for RPG loot to MIRV to avoid confusion
Repathed frag grenades from under minibombs to under base grenades, and added explosion vars to base grenades
Why It's Good For The Game
Fixes a bunch of janky design with embeds, adds lots of new avenues for projectile and grenade variety, ricochets and collateral damage are fun!
Changelog
🆑 Ryll/Shaps
add: Adds stingbangs to cargo (and one in the sec vendor premium), premium less-lethal grenades that shoot off a giant swarm of stingball pellets to help incapacitate swarms of people in tight quarters. You can jump on top of a live one to be a hero and absorb a bunch of shrapnel, same with frag grenades. There's even an achievement for dying to a grenade you jumped on!
add: Projectiles can now embed in people! Or at least grenade shrapnel and the new .38 DumDum ammo, now available in cargo, can. DumDum rounds excel against unarmored targets, but are pricey and do poorly against armored targets.
add: Bullets can now ricochet! Or at least, standard .38 and the new .38/L6 Match Grade ammo can. Match Grade ammo is finely tuned to ricochet easier and seek targets off bounces better, and can be purchased from cargo (for the .38) or nuke ops uplink (for the L6), but standard .38 ammo has a chance to ricochet as well.
tweak: Frag grenades now have smaller explosions but shoot off a bunch of devastating shrapnel, excellent for soft targets!
tweak: Shotguns and other multi-pellet guns now print aggregate messages, so you'll get one "You've been hit by 6 buckshot pellets!" rather than 6 "You've been hit by the buckshot pellet in the X!" messages. Bye bye lag!
balance: Armor can now protect against embedding weapons, taking the best of either the bullet or bomb armor for the limb in question away from the embed chance. Some weapons are better at piercing armor than others!

About The Pull Request
This PR reorganizes all mouse pointers icons in the codebase into a single folder under /effects, and removes 4 unused mouse pointer icons, all of which are remnants of the Clockwork Cult.
Also removes one rogue white pixel in blind_target.dmi.
Why It's Good For The Game
Better organization and less space taken by unused icons.
Changelog

Changes a see_invisible value that was being adjusted to be a
lighting_alpha value that is adjusted when a malf AI uses the camera
upgrades so that it no longer effectively blinds them.
The lighting_alpha value is the same value that nightvision goggles
use, so players should be familiar with how things look with it, so
that they will still be able to discern lighting levels in an area.
Just re-opening Buggy123's PR, props to them and those who contributed
there: #49365

Adds the Families gamemode to the codebase. In this 1 hour showdown,
multiple criminal families are placed onto the station with their goal
to rack up the most points by the end of 1 hour. At which point, the
Space Cops hit up the station to crack down on the family activity. The
severity of the Space Cops is based on how much carnage and murder the
families have committed.
## Why It's Good For The Game
With an actual official medium/heavy RP server, and the codebase taking
a much harder swing towards heavier consequences for death, a more
player focused gamemode with a unique swing on teamwork, the concept of
what exactly is an antagonist, and trust/paranoia will do wonders to
help improve that atmosphere.
Previous tests went extremely well(when administrators weren't
intentionally sabotaging it by welderbombing families as the Head of
Security every single round immediately with no escalation), but
suffered from "this just isn't a gamemode for no RP servers like /tg/".
However, /tg/ is now an RP server.
Get ready to rep your family.
## Isn't this just Gang?
Heck no. Only thing similar is tagging turf and the fact criminal
groups are involved. This mode is completely different otherwise.
## Heck yeah, where do I sign up?
Ask a family member where their Signup Point is, and then simply click
on it with an open hand. You'll be signed up for the family instantly,
and given some sick threads and a spraycan for tagging.
## How do I rep my family?
Wear your gang's uniform or colors similar.
## What does it mean to roll with a crew?
Travel in a group of four or more for bonus points towards your gang.
However, you receive less for having eight or more, so be careful. Try
to spread your crews out!
## I'm an X, what do?
Gangster: Yeah, go do whatever. Wanna backstab your gang? Go for it.
You can switch sides at any time by clicking on an enemy gang's sign up
point. Wanna murder some snitch because they ratted you out to the
pigs? Do it. Wanna pressure the locals into supplying you with goods to
export? Emergent gameplay.
Civilians: Wanna join a gang? Go for it. Gangsters probably shouldn't
be arbitrarily murdering you, but if you're repping someone else's
colors, don't expect to be given a free pass. After all, uniforms are
the only way to really identify a gang member.
SPACE COP: Get rid of all the gangsters. Secure the station. Protect
the law. Uphold the law. Eat donuts.
## No huds? How can I tell if someone's part of my group?
Tough shit, man. I hope you like trust.
In short, this gamemode will be a fun exercise in how far the
playerbase can go in regards to trusting eachother and unifying to meet
a common goal for their group with no rules, gameplay mechanics, or
anything actively forcing them to work together.
## How do I know if someone is a gangster?
1. Are they wearing a gang uniform/color?
If yes, they're probably a gangster.
If no, they're probably a civvie.
2. Are they attacking gangsters?
If yes, they're probably a gangster.
If no, they're probably a civvie.
