About The Pull Request
I've reworked multiz. This was done because our current implementation of multiz flattens planes down into just the openspace plane. This breaks any effects we attach to plane masters (including lighting), but it also totally kills the SIDE_MAP map format, which we NEED for wallening (A major 3/4ths resprite of all wall and wall adjacent things, making them more then one tile high. Without sidemap we would be unable to display things both in from of and behind objects on map. Stupid.)
This required MASSIVE changes. Both to all uses of the plane var for reasons I'll discuss later, and to a ton of different systems that interact with rendering.
I'll do my best to keep this compact, but there's only so much I can do. Sorry brother.
Core idea
OK: first thing.
vis_contents as it works now squishes the planes of everything inside it down into the plane of the vis_loc.
This is bad. But how to do better?
It's trivially easy to make copies of our existing plane masters but offset, and relay them to the bottom of the plane above. Not a problem. The issue is how to get the actual atoms on the map to "land" on them properly.
We could use FLOAT_PLANE to offset planes based off how they're being seen, in theory this would allow us to create lens for how objects are viewed.
But that's not a stable thing to do, because properly "landing" a plane on a desired plane master would require taking into account every bit of how it's being seen, would inherently break this effect.
Ok so we need to manually edit planes based off "z layer" (IE: what layer of a z stack are you on).
That's the key conceit of this pr. Implementing the plane cube, and ensuring planes are always offset properly.
Everything else is just gravy.
About the Plane Cube
Each plane master (except ones that opt out) is copied down by some constant value equal to the max absolute change between the first and the last plane.
We do this based off the max z stack size detected by SSmapping. This is also where updates come from, and where all our updating logic will live.
As mentioned, plane masters can choose to opt out of being mirrored down. In this case, anything that interacts with them assuming that they'll be offset will instead just get back the valid plane value. This works for render targets too, since I had to work them into the system as well.
Plane masters can also be temporarily hidden from the client's screen. This is done as an attempt at optimization, and applies to anything used in niche cases, or planes only used if there's a z layer below you.
About Plane Master Groups
BYOND supports having different "maps" on screen at once (IE: groups of items/turfs/etc)
Plane masters cannot cover 2 maps at once, since their location is determined by their screen_loc.
So we need to maintain a mirror of each plane for every map we have open.
This was quite messy, so I've refactored it (and maps too) to be a bit more modular.
Rather then storing a list of plane masters, we store a list of plane master group datums.
Each datum is in charge of the plane masters for its particular map, both creating them, and managing them.
Like I mentioned, I also refactored map views. Adding a new mapview is now as simple as newing a /atom/movable/screen/map_view, calling generate_view with the appropriate map id, setting things you want to display in its vis_contents, and then calling display_to on it, passing in the mob to show ourselves to.
Much better then the hardcoded pattern we used to use. So much duplicated code man.
Oh and plane master controllers, that system we have that allows for applying filters to sets of plane masters? I've made it use lookups on plane master groups now, rather then hanging references to all impacted planes. This makes logic easier, and prevents the need to manage references and update the controllers.
image
In addition, I've added a debug ui for plane masters.
It allows you to view all of your own plane masters and short descriptions of what they do, alongside tools for editing them and their relays.
It ALSO supports editing someone elses plane masters, AND it supports (in a very fragile and incomplete manner) viewing literally through someone else's eyes, including their plane masters. This is very useful, because it means you can debug "hey my X is yorked" issues yourself, on live.
In order to accomplish this I have needed to add setters for an ungodly amount of visual impacting vars. Sight flags, eye, see_invis, see_in_dark, etc.
It also comes with an info dump about the ui, and plane masters/relays in general.
Sort of on that note. I've documented everything I know that's niche/useful about our visual effects and rendering system. My hope is this will serve to bring people up to speed on what can be done more quickly, alongside making my sin here less horrible.
See https://github.com/LemonInTheDark/tgstation/blob/multiz-hell/.github/guides/VISUALS.md.
"Landing" planes
Ok so I've explained the backend, but how do we actually land planes properly?
Most of the time this is really simple. When a plane var is set, we need to provide some spokesperson for the appearance's z level. We can use this to derive their z layer, and thus what offset to use.
This is just a lot of gruntwork, but it's occasionally more complex.
Sometimes we need to cache a list of z layer -> effect, and then use that.
Also a LOT of updating on z move. So much z move shit.
Oh. and in order to make byond darkness work properly, I needed to add SEE_BLACKNESS to all sight flags.
This draws darkness to plane 0, which means I'm able to relay it around and draw it on different z layers as is possible. fun darkness ripple effects incoming someday
I also need to update mob overlays on move.
I do this by realiizing their appearances, mutating their plane, and then readding the overlay in the correct order.
The cost of this is currently 3N. I'm convinced this could be improved, but I've not got to it yet.
It can also occasionally cause overlays to corrupt. This is fixed by laying a protective ward of overlays.Copy in the sand, but that spell makes the compiler confused, so I'll have to bully lummy about fixing it at some point.
Behavior changes
We've had to give up on the already broken gateway "see through" effect. Won't work without managing gateway plane masters or something stupid. Not worth it.
So instead we display the other side as a ui element. It's worse, but not that bad.
Because vis_contents no longer flattens planes (most of the time), some uses of it now have interesting behavior.
The main thing that comes to mind is alert popups that display mobs. They can impact the lighting plane.
I don't really care, but it should be fixable, I think, given elbow grease.
Ah and I've cleaned up layers and plane defines to make them a bit easier to read/reason about, at least I think.

* So, this moves the "candidate" selection into round_event_control and integrates it into part of canspawnevent. The actual selection is part of a new proc, generate_candidates, which was created so that canspawnevent() and admin_setup() (WHICH OVERRIDES CANSPAWNEVENT AND THEREFORE CANDIDATE GENERATION) don't have to share any code.
The heart attack candidates list is passed down from the event control to the round event. This is used for running a second series of checks via attack_heart(), a new proc on the round event.
The heart attack now fires on every tick, until "attacks_left" reaches zero, which is a value inhereted from the round event control (default 1, modifiable in admin setup).
In attack_heart, the victim pick_weight-ed from the victims (formerly candidates) and is checked to see if they'll be spared from their fate for some special reason. This is so that feedback can be given and smugness can be felt over surviving a heart attack. This check was literally the only thing I wanted to implement in this PR and I ended up rewriting most of the entire thing. Wowee.

Makes minor edits to surge event
Uses ``as anything`` to check scrubbers we already know are scrubbers
Makes the CHECK_TICK -> early return into just a crash, since it's not supposed to happen.
Cockroaches now appear on dangerous vents instead of being a prob(25), I thought it would be better this way to make it easier to tell what vents are spitting out dangerous foams.
Also creates/uses the reagents we are actually gonna use, rather than creating a dynamic amount of reagents, but then turning a hardcoded amount of it into foam.
* The scrubber event now only has a 50% chance per scrubber to actually overflow, leaving some areas without overflow, allowing people to still do stuff.
* Additionally, rebalances the 'safe' chemicals from the vents, removing some unsafe ones and replacing them with carpet.

Fixes#69117Fixes#65653Fixes#59127Fixes#52786
Why It's Good For The Game
/obj/shapeshift_holder was one of the worst remaining abuses of /obj direct subtypes, so I replaced it with a cool fancy datum.
This also decouples the shapeshifting behavior entirely from the shapeshifting spell. So we have support for shapeshifted mobs not sourced from a spell. Which is neat, we could technically swap Wabbajack to use this in the future.
Changelog

fix: Wabbajacking a shapeshifted mob no longer runtimes horribly. When a shapeshifted mob is wabbajacked, they'll now be removed from their shapeshift and stunned.
fix: Transforming via a shapeshift should no longer rob you of your hearing / runechat awareness.
fix: Shapeshifting plays nicer with holoparasites.
fix: Being polymorphed from a xeno to a non-xeno correctly makes you a non-xeno
refactor: Refactored shapeshifting, the shapeshift holder is now a status effect instead of an object.
refactor: Heretic worm form is a shapeshift spell now, this might have some minor behavioral changes but should overall be the same.
refactor: Refactored Wabbajack (+ cursed pool). Overall a bit more clean / consistent behavior.

Adds the Stray Meteor random event, as well as a few new special meteors to be featured in it (as well as to meteor waves, but to a lesser degree). Other than these special meteors being a part of meteor waves, the meteor wave event itself is unchanged by this new event.
A single meteor is thrown somewhere in the vicinity of the station, accompanied by a brief warning announcement. To make things more interesting, five new special meteor types have been created to accompany the original three (flaming/irradiated/tunguska). The special meteors have been added to the meteor wave pools, but have lesser weight than the standard meteors. Enough about that though...
About The Pull Request
Everyone has been asking: "When will there be an anomaly like the bioscrambler, but for the space station? Please, we need more things which replace objects with different objects from the same typepath."
Well I made it and it looked like ass because non-tiling floor and walls look terrible, so then I made this instead.
Dimensional.mp4
The "dimensional anomaly" shifts matter into a parallel dimension where objects are made out of something else.
Like the Bioscrambler anomaly, it does not expire on its own and only leaves when someone signals it or uses an anomaly remover.
When it spawns it picks a "theme" and converts terrain around it until it covers a 7x7 square, then it teleports somewhere else and picks a new theme.
A lot of these themes are relatively benign like "meat", "fancy carpet", or "gold". Some of them are kind of annoying like "icebox" because it creates floor which slows you down, or "clown" because bananium is intentionally annoying. Some of them are actively dangerous, mostly "uranium" and "plasma".
The main problem this will usually cause for crewmembers is decreasing area security. When it replaces doors it replaces them with ones which don't have any access control, and it will also replace RWalls with normal and much more vulnerable walls which will make breaking and entering significantly easier until someone has taken the time to fix the damage. But also sometimes it will irradiate them, you never know.
The fact that sometimes the changes are benign (or provide uncommon materials) and might be happening in places you don't care about access to might encourage people to push their luck and leave it alone until it starts turning the captain's office into a bamboo room or repainting medbay a fetching shade of flammable purple, which I would consider a success.
Armour.mp4
If you successfully harvest the anomaly core you can place it into the reactive armour to get Reactive Barricade Armour, which shifts your dimension when you take damage and attempts to place some randomised (not terribly durable) objects between you and hopefully your attacker (it really just picks up to four random unoccupied tiles next to you). If you're EMPed then the changes it make to the environment will often be as unpleasant for you as they are for a pursuer, and significantly more likely to harm both of you rather than just provide obstacles.
Other changes:
I split anomalies out into their own dmi file, seems to be all the rage lately.
I moved the anomaly placing code into a datum instead of the event because I wanted to reuse it but if you have a better idea about where I could have put it let me know.
This also fixes a bug where the material spreader component wasn't working when I applied plasma materials to something, the extra whitespace was parsing as another argument for some reason and meant it would runtime.
Supermatter delamination was still pointing to Delimber anomalies instead of Bioscrambler.
About The Pull Request
So apparently during the Aurora Caelus event there's a 1% chance that the oven in the kitchen ignites. This adds logging for when that does end up happening.
Why It's Good For The Game
Not having this logged can make it really hard to investigate why the entire kitchen burned down. I only found out that this caused the fire because I happened to be in view and saw an "oh egads" balloon alert for a split second. I almost thought I imagined it or something and it turns out it's a simpsons joke...
This PR was originally just going to be a re-factor of brig doors to be based on status displays, as a big chunk of their code was duplicating the exact same appearance, but then I realized "Cell 1" would have marqueed for being 6 characters and ended up doing the second half of the status display overhaul I meant to do a while back.
So firstly:
Yes, brig doors are now subtypes of status displays.
The main improvement out of that refactor, other than a lot of code trimming, is that the on-screen timer updates its readout as you set it, which looks nice.
Also handled various states in a more consistent way in some edge cases.
The timer now also displays the cell's actual name instead of the internal ID on the top line.
Now for status displays:
Long ago, I wanted the marquee to be continuous but the math required knowing the actual measured text width, though without a user that is impossible.
I recently realized the scope of the text usable on status displays (no formatting, or icons) is so narrow, I can cheat it like crazy into a small lookup table and a looping function.
No, this method can't possibly extend to runetext.
So now the marquees loop seemlessly without any gaps! In fact behind the scenes they loop the very first pixel possible, and still done as a one-and-done animate() sequence as before. (click the preview below if you want to see it smoother)
Status displays are now a bit more colorful and have gapless marquee text.
Brig door timers were massively refactored behind the scenes. Door control should still work as before but be mindful.

This PR does the following:
Force event menu uses tgUI.
Arranged events into categories, and added a little description to each. The descriptions appear as tooltips when you hover over the Trigger button.
Rewrote how "Announce to crew?" works. It no longer pops up a panel after the event has been already announced. Instead, the admins select it via a checkbox, and the result is passed through an optional argument.
announceChance's comment is tweaked a bit to reflect how it actually works at the moment.
Moved rpgtitles to wizard events, where it belongs.
Fake Virus and Electric Storms show up to observers, as I believe they are not as common as Space Dust or Camera Failure, and should be cancelable.
Potential issues:
This only solves half of #68408, I don't think admin triggering having a timer and a cancel button is a big issue, as it allows other admins to overrule you if needed, but if i is, I will try to fix it within this PR.
Fixes#68408. Events now spawn immediately, and the the announceChance is overwritten before it begins.
My choices for categories and descriptions might not be the best, feedback would be appreciated.
Why It's Good For The Game
The old spawn menu was completely unorganized, and you could only search using the browser search tool. I believe a built in search bar helps with this issue a bit. I also believe that organizing the events into categories, and adding descriptions will help with newer admins who might not be familiar with all events.

Currently, storage works as a subtype of /datum/component, utilizing GetComponent() and signals to operate. While this is a pretty good idea in theory, the execution was pretty trash, and we end up with alot of GetComponent() snowflake code (something that shouldn't even need to be used frankly), and a heaping load of scattered procs that lead into one another, and procs that don't get utilized properly.
Instead, this PR adds atom_storage and proc/create_storage(. . .) to every atom, allowing for the possibility of storage on quite frankly anything. Not only does this entirely remove the need for signals, but it heavily squashes down the number of needed procs in total (removing snowflake signal procs that just lead to one another), reducing overall proc overhead and improving performance.

About The Pull Request
Makes smoke propagate the fingerprints of the last person to touch the source of the smoke.
This makes gunpowder smoke actually log the person responsible for the explosions.
Why It's Good For The Game
As of right now gunpowder smoke (and similar) doesn't actually have very good logging as as far as the smoke is concerned it's never been touched and so the resulting explosions are blameless. Obviously, scrolling up for a good minute looking for who has just obliterated the escape shuttle is slightly annoying for the admins. Ergo, making the explosions log who actually is responsible for making the smoke they originate from should reduce admin annoyance.
Changelog

admin: Smoke now logs the last person to touch the source of the smoke as the last person to touch the smoke itself. Gunpowder smoke should be less annoying to log dive as a result as every explosion will log that person.
