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

Purges cryo syringes and cryo shotgun darts, and all references to them from the code.
Why It's Good For The Game
Cryo syringes are, to put it mildly, a blight on chemistry and its balance. Every single design decision around the difficulty of using pyrotechnic chemicals can be sidestepped by heating the ingredients to max temperature and putting them in a single cryo syringe. This leads to instant kill weapons like RDX+teslium or TATP syringes, which mix their ingredients and instantly explode as soon as the syringe makes contact with something.
Nuke ops have to cough up 8 telecrystals for a rocket launcher that causes a roughly similar explosion, plus 4 more for each subsequent rocket, all with the cost of the launcher being a bulky item. Based on this, it seems like it should be inconceivable for chemists to have access to the same firepower with only a syringe gun that fits in a backpack, their chem dispenser available from roundstart and a single techweb node.
Removing these syringes will prevent chemists from evading the dangers of working with explosive chemicals, and should have little to no impact on other applications since very few other reactions exist which need to take place on being injected into a person.
Cryo shotgun darts present an identical problem, and are only not seen in the wild due to their smaller capacity and position far into the techweb making them comparatively undesirable at a point when rapid syringe guns are likely already researched.

Fixes resting so you're now not dense - can fit inside containters etc. Projectiles also once again hit resting players, but will pass through corpses. If you're not able to move, use items, or stand, or you're just dead, bullets go over you.

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.
dreamseeker_2020-03-30_05-01-13.png
dreamseeker_2020-03-30_05-01-26.png
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
Guns, Spells, and mobs that use temperature based projectiles got an update so that the projectile must deal with insulation when applying temperature changes.
The more insulation you have the less body temperature change you will take.
This does not change how much damage you take from a projectile.
The projectiles have been updated from the temperature to be set as, to the amount of change they can do.
The old security temp gun would always set the body temp to 100 kelvin, now each shot tries to reduce your body temp by -50 kelvin before insulation. The reverse is also true for temp projectiles that heat you up.
This does mean that naked you will take more body temp loss, and in a hard suit you have almost no temp change. (hardsuits do protect you from space cold so this follows)
edit: this does not touch cryo sting, that uses frost oil.
Why It's Good For The Game
Better handling of temperature shots.
Insulation matters in combat.
Cold blooded creatures are better off with good insulation.

Are you really going to argue with that cockroach? He has a fucking GUN!
About The Pull Request
Attacking someone with a gun at point blank with grab intent will now hold them at gunpoint. This means you will automatically shoot the target if they move or attack, though they're still free to rummage around in their (or your, if you continue standing next to them) inventory, speak (including using radios), and throw things. The shooter may roam around a 3 tile box radius without breaking the hold-up, allowing them to reposition themselves, though breaking visibility will break the hold-up. In addition, if you're several tiles away and they make a break for it, they may be able to dodge the projectile. Tactical choices!
For the first 3 seconds after the hold-up, any triggered reaction shot will deal normal damage.
Between 3-10 seconds after, any triggered reaction shot will deal double damage.
After 10 seconds, the reaction shot will deal 2.5x damage.
The ramp-up is to give weapons with weaker per-shot damage like disablers, laser guns, and the .38 the ability to be useful for arrests and stick ups, without affecting combat balance too much. If you got someone you're trying to kill to hold still for 2 seconds at point blank range, you may as well just keep shooting them rather than fiddle with holding them up. If you're gonna resist, it's best to do it quickly!
Lastly, if the shooter is attacked and takes damage from anything, they have a chance to flinch and fire in reaction. This is a 50% chance, unless they're hit in the arm holding the gun, in which case it's an 80% chance.
Why It's Good For The Game
Adds in mechanical backing for taking people hostage or being able to arrest people with the threat of violence rather than actually carrying out that violence. Trying to take hostages or hold people up right now will just get you immediately shove spammed mid-"DROP $500 OR FAILRP" unless the other person feels like playing along. This makes cooperating or risking getting shot an actual choice, increasing mechanical depth while also adding more roleplay potential.
Also yes, the target cuffing themselves will not trigger the reaction shot, so holding someone up, backing up, and throwing cuffs at them is a valid move.
