## About The Pull Request
This is an update that touches many more things all at once (compared to
my other PRs) meant to make PDAs in general feel more consistent and not
take away from one of the experiences we want to encourage: interaction
between players.
1. Replaced all checks of a 'pda' with a 'modular pc'. This means
technically (though not done in-game currently) other modpcs can hold an
uplink, and microwaves can charge laptops.
2. Speaking of microwave, they now don't break and require
deconstruction if the cell is removed mid-charge.
3. When a Mod PC is out of power, it will now allow the Messenger to
work (which now also doesn't consume any additional power), if the app
exists on the PC. Here's a video demonstration
https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/assets/53777086/7ae12f81-a271-49b8-95fa-2ba54d2e2d1f
4. Flashlights can't be turned on while the cell is dead
5. I replaced a bunch of program vars with ``program_flags`` and renamed
``usage_flags`` to ``can_run_on_flags``.
6. Added a debug modPC that has every app installed by default. Mafia
had some issues in the past that were unknown because Mafia wasn't
preinstalled with any tablet so was never in create & destroy nor in any
other unit test. This was just an easy solution I had, but PDAs should
get more in-depth unit tests in the future for running apps n stuff- I
just wanted to make sure no other apps were broken/harddeling.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Currently when a PDA dies, its only use is to reply to PDA messages sent
to you, since you can still reply to them. Instead of just fixing it and
telling players to cope, I thought it would be nice to allow PDA
Messenger to still work, as it is a vital app.
You can call it some emergency power mode or whatever, I don't really
mind the reason behind why it is this way.
When I made cells used more on PDAs, my main goal was to encourage
upgrading your PDA and/or limiting how many apps you use at once, I did
not want this to hit on players who use it as a form of interaction.
This is the best of both worlds, I think.
The rest of the changes is just for modularity, if some downstream wants
to add tablets, phone computers, or whatever the hell else, they can
still get just as far as PDAs should be able to get to, hopefully.
## Changelog
🆑
add: PDAs with a dead power cell are now limited to using their
Messenger app.
fix: Microwaves now stop charging PDAs if the cell was removed
mid-charge.
fix: Microwaves can now charge laptops.
fix: PDA Flashlights can't be turned on while the PDA is dead.
fix: You can now hold a laptop up to a camera (if it has a notekeeper
app installed) like PDAs already could.

## About The Pull Request
I deleted the documentation file of ModPCs because it was barebones and
had no new information to give that autodoc couldn't. Just to make sure
this isn't a net-negative, I improved on much of the autodoc and
comments in general around ModPC code to help people understand easier
what's going on around it.
I also renamed vars that were too easily confused with other var names,
and reworked the ntnet downloader a little;
- it now has a search bar
- it now has more sections to scroll through, hopefully making it more
accurate and easy to find what you need.
- also organized the apps that were previously shoved in 'other'.
- i also upgraded it to a .tsx because why not

## Why It's Good For The Game
Adds in a lot of comments that were previously missing, clears up some
sources of confusion within ModPC code, and improves NTNet Downloader,
something I've procrastinated on doing for a very long time now.
## Changelog
🆑
qol: NTNet Downloader now has a search bar, and programs are now better
sorted.
/🆑
## About The Pull Request
Apps now properly delete themselves when removed, so they don't exist in
nullspace anymore.
Chat client now actually updates the uid, because its New() didn't call
parent.
Deletes the 'console' subtype of modular computer
Updates how downloading and transferring files are handled
Fixes being able to infinitely upload apps to a disk
## Why It's Good For The Game
Fixes some more bugs I found with apps and prevents spamming apps in a
disk.
## Changelog
🆑
fix: Maintenance data disks now properly transfer from PC to disk
fix: Disks can no longer be flooded with the same app repeatedly.
/🆑
## 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).
/🆑
## About The Pull Request
- Tablets now refresh their page when changing programs, this means the
UI will no longer close and reopen itself several times (or even have
several UIs open if shit broke hard enough).
- Removed tablet's attack self because interact already does everything
it had to do.
- Header programs now close when minimized (as there's no button to
close them in the main menu.
- Removed a lot of program UI stuff, it's now handled by the PC itself,
such as header data and ui host.
- Cut off asset sending from TGUI into it's own proc so I can re-send
assets when changing programs
- Added an ejection button for machine computers
- Fixed ID not ejecting into the user's hand when using 'Eject ID'
- Fixes a minor runtime when opening the MODsuit application without a
MODsuit already connected.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Fixes some bugs that I found with tablets
UIS now won't be flickering as bad in front of them, or have
inconsistent placement (like when you move your main menu UI, go to
Messenger, then it's back to the center of the screen).

## Changelog
🆑
fix: Being in an application now properly uses the tablet's battery.
fix: Messenger and Themify apps now close when minimized, so don't count
towards the running app limit.
fix: Tablet UIs will now no longer spam open/close the UI when changing
applications
fix: Using the Eject ID button on tablets now ejects into your hand.
fix: Computers now have an Eject ID button
refactor: Cut down a lot of copy paste in tablet & program code, now
it's mostly done by the tablet.

## About The Pull Request
This is a port/rework of
https://github.com/yogstation13/Yogstation/pull/15735 - I changed a lot
of how it acted (some themes are locked behind maintenance apps).
The original author allowed this port to happen, and I really liked how
it looked there so I'd like to add it here.
### Applications
Removes the hardware configurator application, as all it did was show
you your space and battery now that all hardware was removed. These are
things your PC does by default, so it was just a waste of space.
Adds a Theme manager application instead, which allows you to change
your PDA's theme at will.
Adds a new Maintenance application that will give a new theme, however
it will also increase the size of the theme manager app itself as it's
bloatware.
### Menu
There's now a bar at the top of the menu showing 'special' tablet apps
which, for one reason or another, should stand out from the rest of the
apps. Currently this is PDA messenger and the Theme manager
Flashlight and Flashlight color is now only an icon, and is shown on the
same line as Updating you ID

### Themes
Adds a lot of themes to choose from, although SOME are hidden behind
Maintenance applications, which will give you a random theme. These are
bloatware however, so they come with some extra cost to the app's
required space storage.
Themes are now supported on ALL APPLICATIONS! If you have a computer
theme, you will have that theme in EVERY app you enter, rather than just
a select few.
ALSO also, emagging the tablet will automatically set & unlock the
Syndicate theme, which makes your PDA obvious but you can disguise it if
you wish through just re-painting it to something else.
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/828923843829432340/1069565383155122266/2023-01-30_05-29-53.mov
### Preferences
This also adds a pref for theme, reworking the ringtone code to work
with it as well. I also removed 2 entirely unused PDA prefs just 'cause.
Screenshot not up-to-date, they now have proper names.

### Other stuff
Made defines for device_themes
Added support for special app-side checks to download files
Fixed programs downloading themselves TWICE because defines all had the
same definition
Removes the Chemistry computer disk as it was empty due to chemistry
app's removal
Removes the 'run_emag' proc, since apps can directly refer to the
computer to check for emag status instead.
Moved over and added better documentation on data computer files, and
moved the ordnance ones to the same file as the others.
## Why It's Good For The Game
It makes PDAs a lot more customizable while adding more features to
maintenance applications. I think the themes look cool and it fits with
PDAs being "personal" anyways.
I also explained most of my other arguments in the about section, such
as the hardware configuration application.
## Changelog
🆑 Chubbygummibear & JohnFulpWillard
add: A ton of new NtOS themes, which are accessible by the new Themify
application that comes with all PCs.
add: Emagging a PC now defaults it to the Syndicate option (and adds it
to go back to it if you wish)
add: There's a new maintenance app that gives you rarer themes
qol: The NtOS Main menu was moved around, added "header" applications
that are shown where the Flashlight is, such as your Theme manager and
PDA messenger.
code: Made defines for device_themes
code: Added support for special app-side checks to download files
code: Removes the 'run_emag' proc, since apps can directly refer to the
computer to check for emag status instead.
fix: Programs no longer download twice.
del: Removes the Chemistry computer disk as it was empty due to
chemistry app's removal

Allows modPC programs to send alerts, and adds a proc in the computer object to handle playing the sound effect and sending a message to visible users. These notifications can be muted on a per-program basis. Programs can also set themselves to highlighted in the NTOS Main menu; this is intended to be used along side alerts, but really can be used any time a program wishes to tell the user there is new information.
NT CIMS (SM monitor) now plays an alert during SM delaminations if the app is closed. The app must have had an SM selected before closing, or it will not send alerts. Notifications are sent when the SM makes a radio alert. If the app is currently the active program, the app will instead send a notification just once, when the SM begins delamination, so as to not annoy engineers that are already aware of the issue.
All ui_act procs should call parent by default. All procs should preserve the value of the parent proc when it's TRUTHY and pass it down the call stack. No UI should be interactible when its flags or state indicate it should not be, except when explicity overriden by child procs intentionally disregarding parent return values to achieve a specific goal.
