* Adds Biomes to the Cave Generator, for all of your procedurally-placed cave biome needs! (#83138)
## About The Pull Request
Implements biomes into the Cave Generator, using some adapted code from
the biomes feature of the Jungle Generator. It's there as a tool for
whomever would want to implement it on /tg/, I simply don't have the
sprites, mobs and motivation to add biomes to anything at this current
point in time, even though I'm fully open to helping anyone that would
be interested in doing so.
Here's how it works:
You supply a 2D list of biomes based on the two arbitrary criteria
'heat' and 'humidity', you can treat these as simply two independent
variables that would affect your biome distribution. There's three
levels of each, `LOW`, `MEDIUM` and `HIGH`, take a look at
`possible_biomes` for a good example of it. Here's what it looks like by
default (yes, that's the default on the jungle generator as well, except
here we use 3x3 instead of 4x4):
On the `/datum/biome`, you have three important stats, split into two
each: flora, features and fauna. They are evaluated in this order, so if
a flora spawns, no feature nor fauna will spawn. If a feature spawns, no
fauna will spawn, and if fauna spawns, then that's cool. Each of these
stats have a corresponding `density` (i.e. `flora_density`), which is
simply the probability for that thing to be spawned if it's eligible,
and a `types` list (i.e. `flora_types`), which is a weighted list that
then gets expanded at runtime in order to make the `pick()` operation
faster.
The areas you want to have the biomes in also need to have their
`area_flags` set up to include `FLORA_ALLOWED` for both flora and
features, and `MOB_SPAWN_ALLOWED` for fauna to spawn.
The fauna currently does just about every check that is done in
`cave_generator`'s `populate_terrain()`, except for handling megafauna
differently, or taking megafauna into account. If that's desired, it can
be added easily, I simply chose not to add it because it felt like
wasted processor time over something that would probably not be
pertinent in the majority of cases.
I've run a few tests, and keeping in mind that I've got a high-specs
computer, generating the caves with biomes takes about 1 second for an
entire z-level covered in biomes. For comparison, I compile the repo in
about 36 seconds. ~~It may increase the amount of time spent
initializing the atoms subsystem, however, I'll need to compare that,
I'd really appreciate some help optimizing that if anyone knows how
to.~~ It didn't seem to have an effect, I just had seen things a bit
weird. I optimized things by moving rust-g calls outside of the for
loop, and we gained about 0.3-0.4 seconds, which is pretty nice.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Biomes are cool, and since we use mainly cave generators for z-level
generation, I decided to add biomes to that, so that the biome code
added by floyd lives on.
Here's an example of ice box with jungle caves, just as a proof of
concept, to prove that it works:
## Changelog
🆑 GoldenAlpharex
add: Added Biomes capabilities to the Cave Generator, to allow for
procedurally-placed biomes to be introduced in cave generation. This
feature is not currently used on any map, but the tools are all there
for anyone with the motivation to add biomes to any cave-generating
area, like Lavaland and Ice Box.
code: Biomes can now affect features (which are usually structures), on
top of flora and fauna.

lavaland raptors (#82537)
adds raptors to lavaland. these are creatures that have been created
through countless xenobiological experiments by nanotrasen to breed an
animal that can withstand the harsh conditions of lavaland and aid
miners. theres now a new ranch miners can access bottom right to the
mining base
this ranch starts somewhat empty as most raptors have escaped
containment and are now scattered all across lavaland, u can find them
and return them to ur ranch.
in order to tame a raptor, u first need to prove to it that ur a capable
master. when u try to ride it, a little minigame prompt will pop up
in this game, the bird's icon rapidly changes direction and u have to
quickly click the arrow thats OPPOSITE to the direction its facing
several times before the direction changes. if you fail 3 times itll
knock you off and run away, however if u win it will deem u a suitable
master and listen to your orders.
There's many different breeds of raptors you can find across lavaland,
all with different capabilities:
red raptors: these excel at combat and can be very useful for dealing
with lavaland mobs or defending the node drone
yellow raptors: are very speedy mounts, theyll get u from point A to
point B in record time
green raptors: they are the tankiest type of raptor and are very good
miners. while mounted, they will clear any rock walls in their path
purple raptors: can store items in them. they have a decent storage size
allowing players to carry more items across trips
white raptors: are able to heal other injured raptors. having one in ur
party would be very useful as they can nurse the combat raptors back to
full health when they need it
blue raptors: produce very nutritious milk with healing capabilities.
having 1 or 2 of these back at ur ranch would be very useful
black raptors: by far the rarest breed, its very unlikely that ull be
able to get one of these, but in the case u do, they have the combat
capabilities of the red raptor, speed of the yellow raptor, and
tankiness of the green raptor.
Breeding different colored raptors together can net u an entirely new
colored raptor. each breed has atleast 1 guaranteed combination of
parents that it will result out of.
you will also need to maintain a good friendship bond with ur raptors,
this is done by feeding them, grooming them, and petting them. u can see
the strength of ur bond by SHIFT clicking them. more hearts indicate a
stronger bond
having higher friendship bonds means ur raptors will perform better in
combat, and in the case of blue raptors, they will produce more milk.
Maintaining friendship bonds with baby raptors and keeping them happy
will also encourage them to grow faster
U can also analyze raptors using the new raptor-dex device available at
ur ranch
the inherit modifiers indicate how strong this raptor's offspring will
be. raptors inherit attack and health stats from both their parents,
breeding raptors with higher inherit modifiers means the offspring will
be stronger.
raptors will also inherit some traits from their parents that will
change how they will act around u and around other raptors, some of them
being:
Playful: raptors will play with their masters and tease them
motherly: raptors will care for baby raptors, this will encourage baby
raptors to grow quicker
depressed: means its hard to keep this raptor happy and friendship bonds
will deteriorate faster if not given enough care.
coward: makes them flee combat if severly injured, ditching u to the
wolves
trouble maker: makes them attack other raptors at the ranch. however,
trouble maker raptors will not attack other trouble maker raptors,
instead they will form posses and bully raptors together. it might be a
good idea to isolate them from the other raptors
raptors primarily consume ores. to feed raptors, you need to place ore
into the food troughs at the ranch. they are too civilized to eat ores
off the ground or directly from ur hand, they will only eat it if its in
their trough
beautiful raptor sprites by spessmenart! (rest are codersprites)
adds a new layer to lavaland mobs, and gives miners new interesting
tools and ways to tackle the challenges of lavaland.

* Fixes ore vents spawning without ores on icebox, sets up map specific ore configurations (#81103)
## About The Pull Request
In short, we used a static list previously within the ore_generation
subsystem that held the amount of each ore that we expected a single map
to uniformly need. We held this number constant, since we were spawning
15 vents per map.
**Pros:** This worked flawlessly for Lavaland since 15 vents on a single
Z level makes it pretty densely packed map with a good amount of
map-based ore spawns, and it worked consistently.
**Cons:** 15 vents did not work well on Icebox however, even when split
so that the majority of the ores were spawning on the lower levels,
players did not feel like icebox spawned nearly enough ores and reported
the map spawning empty.
**Result:** As a result, we adjusted the ratio, so that we spawned
vastly more ores on the lower levels, now up to 4 vents on the upper
level, and 21 vents on the lower level. However, as we were still using
the ore distribution list based on lavaland, icebox vents were quickly
running out of ores to distribute between them, resulting in empty vents
-> which produced empty boulders -> which not only don't really let you
process them properly, but also just result in a metric ton of runtimes.
Icebox now has it's own list of ore distributions. These distributions
are now moved to a set of global lists as opposed to being saved on the
subsystem as a static list, which will make going and setting up new ore
distribution lists very very easy. Additionally, we've moved the setting
and getting of those ore_distributions over to the seedRuins proc, so
that we're actually setting the list of ores right before we actually
place them to make sure that the order that it's set is roughly as it's
needed, while still setting the list at the same time the
map-appropriate ruin placements are dropped in.
**Plus some misc cleanup fixes:**
`var/list/ore_vent_sizes` in SSore_generation wasn't being treated as a
similar budget list as `ore_vent_minerals`, since it `pick()`s off it's
own static size list. Which is honestly fine for this five seconds, I
can handle that later while we make sure the rest of the code code is
stable. In the meantime, I've just tweak it so that it's easy to see at
a glance how many of each random vent has spawned into the map.
Tweaked the description to not include anything about chemical
processing, as I'm planning on hitting on that in a part 2 PR that I'll
be picking back up after the freeze.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Cleans up the code a bit, but primarily fixes ores not spawning on
icebox as they should.
Should fix#81058.
Improves description to not mention mechanics that aren't in game.
Also, cleans up a piece of code that currently isn't serving much of a
purpose.
## Changelog
🆑
fix: Icebox should have it's ore distribution and it's ore vents fixed,
so that vents should now produce ore.
spellcheck: Boulder processing machines now don't mention things they
don't do.

## About The Pull Request
The gibotonite that arcane had setup to spawn on icebox was uh, the
wrong kind, it was the cursed SNOWDIN gibonite, which is made to live in
a plasma environment. Rookie error really should have remembered that
ice/icemoon exists this is a GREAT codebase
Speaking of, I've noticed that gibonite is the only ore that spawns in
an actual mineral wall here (IE the blue rock walls) so you can really
trivially avoid it. that feels wrong

ArcMining Pr Beta: Version 1.2 (#78524)
This one's not like the last one, so much so that I'm not even going to
outsource the PR description to a robot this time!
Basically, **You should read the PR body before assuming that everything
is the same as last time. It's not.**
Click the link below to see a video summary of the main features of this
pull request.
https://youtu.be/Aho2omR0mjY?feature=shared
This pull request serves as a large rework of minerals produced by
mining, and by extension mining itself. I'll try and list each change
and it's associated nuance here.
The biggest addition to the game with ArcMining is **Ore Vents**. Ore
vents spawn as a ruin on the map, placing a randomized ore vent onto map
generation. Ore vents spawn in 3 different sizes, **Small, Medium, and
Large**. These vents will pick from a pool of materials they can
generate, and will hang out across the map. A player can use a mining
scanner to discover an ore vent, granting a small quantity of **mining
points** to begin with. Once scanned, ore vents will show what minerals
that ore vent will generate after they're fully tapped.
Scanning the vent again will trigger the extraction process. A small
drone will fly down, called the NODE drone, and buckle onto the vent.
Your job during wave defense is to protect the drone and to defeat waves
of randomly spawning mobs (dependent on if you're on lavaland or on
icebox). The quantity, duration, and time between waves is scaled to the
size of the vent you're protecting. Starting by scanning and protecting
lower tier vents earlier in the shift is a safer bet than doing a large
vent in the first few minutes. The drone has 500 health, and can take a
good few hits, but leaving it alone will cause it to meet an unfortunate
end quite quickly.
Cooperation can be your best asset, as mining with allies can greatly
help with wave defense, and mineral points are granted to anyone who
helps with defending the ore vent equally (So 500 * size tier,
regardless of how much help you receive). Once complete, the ore vent
will have a mining machine constructed on top of it, and will start to
dredge up **Boulders** from the earth automatically. More on boulders
later.
Ore vents can be located based on your mining scanner, and will provide
an appropriate audio cue based on if the ore vent has been discovered or
not, and once processed will no longer alert you to it's presence.
**Each station comes with a free vent that produces exclusively iron and
glass, free of charge.** This is to help with shifts where the station
may not have shaft miners to produce minerals, and to provide the
station with a baseline amount of minerals where none may exist
otherwise.
Mineral generation has been completely reworked. Previously, Mineral
Generation had a flat 13% spawn rate in-game. Once minerals spawned,
they would also have a chance to propagate their minerals to nearby
tiles, resulting in a rather massive pool of minerals that could spawn
throughout lavaland on the whole.
This tweaks that, by making minerals in walls spawn based on their
proximity to ore vents on maps that use cave generation. Both the
probability, and quantity of ores spawning in walls is scaled based on
distance, with ore vents looking like large caches of ores found in
walls. This makes following ores found in walls and checking their
quantity of minerals spawned a good indicator of how close you are to a
nearby vent in-round.
This means you can collect some points form both discovering ore vents
first, as well as collecting their surrounding ores, turn those in for
mining points, and then trading them in for gear upgrades to more
effectively take on ore vents. As a result of tweaking the balance of
this, the total amount of ores spawned in walls overall has been
decreased. However, by making more of the process time based, we still
result in a mostly balanced finished product.
On station, there are now three new machines. These are the BRM, the
Refinery, and the Smelter.
- The BRM acts as a teleporter. Instead of needing to carry boulders
back to the station, you can activate the BRM, and it will automatically
pick boulders to teleport back to itself. You can use this to teleport
boulders dredged up from lavaland onto the station for processing. **The
BRM will only lock on to boulders that are resting on an ore vent.**
Moving boulders back by hand will mean you'll have to haul it back by
hand.
- The refinery processes the non-metallic materials out of boulders.
This process sends the materials straight to the ORM, and collects
mining points from the ores smelted in the machine. Swiping with an ID
card lets you withdraw those points for your own personal account, but
remember that these points are for your whole team to share from. The
**Mining points obtained from this process is only 75% of the amount an
equivalent amount of ores would provide.**
- The smelter works nearly identically, however the smelter produces
metallic materials out of boulders instead.
- Once a boulder has had all of it's materials extracted, it's broken
down and deleted from the line. Otherwise, the boulder is spat out for
the next machine to process it (either the refinery or smelter).
- Once there's no minerals left in a boulder of any type, the refinery
or smelter will break the boulder down.
- Boulders **do not stack onto tiles with each other**, so they'll block
each other when pulled or when moving on a conveyor belt.
Boulders can also be processed by hand. Using a mining tool on a boulder
with right click will allow you to break down a boulder into it's
composite ores, but limits you to a maximum of 10 ore per boulder, where
the full amount can be extracted using the proper processing machines.
Also, processing by hand does deal small amounts of stamina damage over
time, do breaking a full large boulder can be particularly taxing.
Additional Boulder Processing Machines can be built, with the BRM board
being obtained from the Protolathe, while the Smelter and Refinery
boards being obtainable from the Autolathe instead. A _boulder
processing beacon_ can also be obtained from the mining points vendor as
a reward to assist with boulder processing. Boulder processing beacons
can be used to spawn in a new BRM, refinery, and smelter on the tile the
user is standing on, however **you'll still need to link them to the
ORM**!
All three machines can be upgraded with Stock Parts, allowing for **more
boulders to be processed at a time**. It does not, however, increase the
amount of minerals received from boulders, or points earned.
Mining borgs have been given some minor adjustments to compensate for
the changes to mining. Their mineral scanner, which now has an active
component to gameplay, is now a module as opposed to built into the mob.
This module allows for the same ability to discover and start waves of
monsters to fight.
Mining modules will find that their PKA now has a total of 90% mod
capacity as compared to the 80% they had before, to allow for more
robust defense of ore vents.
In addition, all borgs and AIs can interact with the BRM for boulder
collection.
Mining Mechs have had their utility tweaked as a result of these changes
as well. Mineral scanners to be used on mining mechs now have a larger
radius by comparison to their handheld cousins. Similarly, it now has an
active scanning button, which will actively discovery nearby ore vents.
To begin wave defense, you will need to hop out and scan a second time
however, so that you can properly accept the risks of drawing a horde of
bloodthirsty wildlife towards you and your companions.
Mechs can also manually process boulders, similar to mining tools using
their drill.
Golems, being more gentle and less aggressive than humans, while being
made out of LITERAL ROCKS, have a greater need to secure access to ores
and minerals to eat. As such, they have adapted to be able to do two new
things:
- Golems may now right click ore vents to be able to manually haul a
boulder out of the vent. This costs a hefty amount of stamina, but it
allows for golems to avoid combat during regular gameplay.
- Golems may now left click a boulder with an open hand in order to
manually process a boulder like a pickaxe. While not faster, it is
consistent and prevents golems from starving if they have access to a
vent, but no ores, somehow.
The labor camp, being a camp for rehabilitation and ~~excessive manual
labor~~ has been tweaked. Boulders now replace the random minerals
located on their island, and to acquire their prizes inside, much be
excavated and then broken out of the rock. Now YOU TOO can excavate
minerals and become a true mineral hero by working your way to freedom.
As a result of fewer mining points being available across the map due to
the new ore spawning mechanics, and the shift in how and when ores will
be coming in, almost every progress based mining point cost has been
reduced by around 10-20%. Many numbers are still subject to change at
present, but the idea is that core progress unlocks should be made a bit
more available earlier in the round before players can start to solo or
duo larger or more difficult ore vents, after which they'll be rolling
in ores.
Every once in awhile, an unusual boulder will get hauled up from the
mineral rich depths of lavaland. These **Artifact boulders** can
occasionally produce rare items, but for now they've mostly just been
pulling up **Strange objects** for science. Nanotrasen Natural Sciences
department will reward you extra points to be collected by boulder
processing machines for successfully extracting one. In the future, this
opens up a passive reward space that mining can reward to the station,
like providing cytology DNA samples, ancient seeds, or other artifacts.
- Boulders can be stored in all varieties of ore boxes (ground, mech)
should you choose, however as mentioned it's best to leave them where
they spawn and teleport them to the station for convenience.
- Maps that are not subject to cave generation will find that they are
largely untouched in terms of mineral balance.
- Future or existing ruins can now be tweaked to have a mineral balance
cost, as the ore vent ruin does. This will allow us to spawn in more
interesting ruins for pre-made combat challenges.
- There are unique ore vents that spawn across the map, that will summon
a boss mob relevant to that map. If the boss mob is defeated, that vent
will spawn large boulders pulling from every possible ore type that can
spawn. Not for the faint of heart!
- Similarly, the number of ore vents and mineral budget is now
adjustable in the cave generation procs, so maps may spawn with more or
less ore vents as desired for balance.
- Artifact boulders opens up a LOT of room for possible future content
like archaeology, xenoarch, artisci, and other design spaces!
- Megafauna STILL SPAWN ON THE MAP. They just happen to spawn in
addition to boss ore vents.
- **I'll add more to this as I get asked questions and remember things,
this is a huge PR and I'm confident I've missed at least something**
I outlined a lot of this in #78040, so I'll try and keep this relatively
snappy this time, while noting that I've made some concessions to make
the whole system a lot more playable while not trying to break out
design decisions that are at the end of the day, better for the game and
the overall resource balance in round.
Minerals are a very poorly balanced system, and have been since their
inception many years ago. We heavily rely on mineral balance in round,
and yet we've really only balanced it by introducing so much supply that
there's no equivalent exchange for materials that doesn't just heavily
flood the exchanged material. For example, items printed from materials
that are otherwise considered "rare" on master exist in such quantities
and they'll never practically run out in our allotted 90 minute time
slot design. This PR adjusts how ores spawn to a point where we can
minimize the amount of ores that need to exist on the map for mining to
be able to progress, while still providing enough resources for the
station that it covers the needs of the station adequately.
Miners will need to be more strategic about what resources they've
collected, and be able to make decisions about which vents are worth the
risk of attempting to fight, how to prepare for a wave defense, and when
to head back up for upgrades, while finally giving them at least some
kind of incentive to work together and use different equipment.
Resonators make cleaning up the caves around vent easy, sandbags set up
easy defenses for your vent, mechs can serve as a wider range radar
while mining, all while still providing a new gameplay loop to mining.
By limiting the amount of ores that can enter the round from the
massive, massive amounts that were coming into the round beforehand (see
gameplay to the processing of minerals. I have some plans for that,
however this PR already got bloated really REALLY badly due to scope
creep and the number of intersecting systems that rammed into each other
to make this PR possible. So that'll be next. Plus, as I've mentioned,
we open up places for ore processing to find fossils, relics, and other
things that can implemented down the line.
Overall, I don't expect this PR to save or kill ore balance, but we gain
a LOT more control over it through the use of our mining defines
attached to this PR, and at the end of the day, that's a great place to
start off of.
🆑
add: Added ore vents. Scanning them with mining scanners shows what
minerals they contain. Scan again to fight off a horde of beasts as your
drone assistant excavates the vent, so the ore vent will produce mineral
boulders!
bal: Ores that spawn in walls now spawn based on their proximity to ore
vents, with their chance to spawn and their minerals contained scaling
from low to high.
add: Added the BRM, Refinery, and Smelter. These pieces of equipment are
used to process ore boulders into minerals for the station. Stock Part
upgrades allow more boulders to be processed at one time. They collect
mining points as well, to be redeemed with an ID card swipe.
add: Boulders are teleported to the station via the BRM if left
untouched. Boulders can also be cracked open for a reduced amount of ore
using pickaxes or golems hands.
add: All stations come equipt with a pre-excavated ore vent, which
produces a basic supply of iron and glass only. Scan other vents for
your critical resources!
add: Look there's a shit ton of changes on mining, for more detail check
out the Pull Request: https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/pull/78524.
sound: New sounds and noises for your high octane factorio-like
gameplay!
image: All new boulder sprites for the new minerals and rocks added to
the mining gameplay loop, as well as mining machines!
image: Overlays appear over vents when scanned to let you know their
contents at a glance when actively scanned with any mining scanners.

* Refactor icemoon wolves into basic mobs and add taming + pack behavior (#79736)
## About The Pull Request
Ports icemoon wolves over to the basic mob framework with a bit of extra
stuff:
- Wolves call for help when attacked within a decently large radius.
Because you know, pack animals.
- Wolves can now be tamed with a slab of meat
- When tamed, wolves can be ridden like goliath mounts. Ride wolf, life
good. Pretend you're playing ARK and start shivering to death in thatch
huts for that High Roleplay experience.
- Tamed wolves have access to a bunch of pet commands (following, point
fetching, point attacking, play dead, etc) and will also defend their
owners vehemently if they're attacked.
You can probably tame multiple if you wanted to.
## Why It's Good For The Game
What part about riding wolves isn't entertaining? I don't really play
/tg/ that much so I can't argue too much about the balance implications
this might pose, but it's undoubtedly a stupid little gimmick and is
likely to be used by bored assistants and miners with too much time on
their hands.
Especially robust individuals will probably find a million things to do
with a basic mob capable of fetching, attacking on command and generally
being able to defend themselves decently well.
## Changelog
🆑 yooriss
refactor: Icemoon wolves now use the basic mob framework and should act
more intelligently, defending their pack.
add: Icemoon wolves can be tamed with slabs of meat and can be ridden as
mounts once friendly. Being rather large dogs, they also have access to
most of the pet commands you'd expect, such as fetching things, and
violently mauling people their owners point at.

* Mafia now starts without admin intervention (#79348)
## About The Pull Request
Mafia should now start without the need of admin intervention.
I made a unit test that should always have a PDA and a ghost spawning in
a game of Mafia and having it run through basic setup to confirm they
both successfully sign up and the game starts.
I had to change a lot of things in order to get this working, such as
giving unique ckeys to mock clients, fixing harddels in Mafia, and
plenty of minor fixes. This is the first time any of this code is put in
CI, so a lot of uncaught errors are now showing their faces.
Because loading maps mid-round runtimes due to smoothing, I have mafia
their own unit test-only map that doesn't use smoothing.
I also split the mafia ui code into its own file, and moved a single
helper that was sitting around in mafia's file into a helpers file.
I also added some comments to explain why certain things are the way
they are, because I wrote some undocumented code previously and forgot a
few things, leading to self-inflicted wasted time.

* Basic Mob Brimdemon (#78424)
## About The Pull Request
Fixes#71330
The brimdemon was basically already perfect (well, it has a novel means
of attacking) so I didn't get too fancy with this one, it's _largely_
just a straightforward conversion.
Following this change it's a little slower to back off, but better at
lining up with people in order to blast them. Additionally, its beam is
now a mob ability so you can give it to other mobs if you so desire.
Because I can't help doing a _little_ tinkering, Brimdemons now explode
2.5 seconds after they die, after a brief warning animation.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Simple mobs must die
## Changelog
🆑
add: Brimdemon corpses release an explosion shortly after death, just to
keep you on your toes.
refactor: Brimdemons now use the basic mob framework which (should)
improve their pathfinding somewhat. Please bug report any unusual
behaviour.
admin: The brimdemon's beam ability can be given to any mob, for your
Binding of Isaac event

* [no gbp] Lavaland should no longer spawn one million goliaths and watchers (#77716)
## About The Pull Request
Fixes#77709
I made a very smart and sensible and handsome change in a recent PR to
replace `mob/goliath/random` and `mob/watcher/random` subtypes with
spawner effects rather than mobs which qdel themselves on init sometimes
however I neglected to account for how the lavaland map generation was
reliant on those typepaths to space mobs apart
resultingly the map generator would attempt to place lavaland mobs about
12 spaces apart _unless_ they were goliaths or watchers which it would
spawn basically as much as it wanted wherever it wanted

* Basic Watchers & Basilisks (#77630)
## About The Pull Request
This one is a double feature because Watchers and Basilisks share the
same typepath. You might see a couple more of those.
As is tradition I decided to fuck with them rather than just port them.
Here's what's up.
**Basilisks**
- Have a new soulless sprite which looks less like a living blue hedge.
- Walk at you and shoot you while you are not in range (just like
before).
- Become supercharged if they become "heated" by lava, lasers, or
temperature weapons. This was a feature they also previously had but
they would never encounter lava, so now it also works if you use the
wrong gun on them.
- Lose their supercharge if you cool them down.
- Otherwise pretty normal mobs.
**Watchers**
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kOq_Bf78k5A
Here's a traditional video of me intentionally getting hit by mechanics
(trust me its definitely on purpose)
- They glow emmissively a little bit so you can see them from further
away.
- Their eyes light up about 0.5 seconds before they are able to shoot at
you.
- No longer melee attack, instead try to stay out of melee.
- Will occasionally put you into "Overwatch", meaning they will shoot
you rapidly if you move or act while they're staring at you for a brief
time period (after which you become immune for 12 seconds, and during
which other watchers will play fair and stop shooting at you).
- If they start taking damage they will also start using their "Gaze"
attack, look away or suffer some kind of negative effect!
- - Normal watcher gaze flashes and confuses you.
- - Magmawing watcher gaze obviously burns (and briefly stuns) you.
- - Icewing watcher gaze freezes you and throws you backwards.
- Magnetically attract and eat diamonds. They also used to do this, but
just if they happened to coincidentally walk past some.
**Other accompanying changes**
All basic mobs will now adopt the "stop gliding" trait if they get
slowed down too much.
I moved behaviour for "fire a projectile from this atom" into a helper
proc because I was using it in three places and I will probably use it
in more places. There are probably other places in the existing code
which could be using this.
I think I made the basic mob melee attack forecast default a little more
forgiving, they were fucking me up too much and I am the playtester.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Another one off the list.
New tricks for old dogs.
Framework for making mobs with ranged attacks "fairer" (you can see when
they are ready to shoot you).
More (hopefully) versatile AI behaviours which we will reuse later (I
hope I'm not duplicating one someone already made).
If our players "enjoy" them enough we can give more mobs "don't look at
me" mechanics.
Removes some soul sprites.
## Changelog
🆑
refactor: Basilisks and Watchers now use the basic mob framework. Please
bug report any unusual behaviour.

add: Basilisks will go into a frenzy if heated by energy weapons or
temperature beams as well as by lava.
add: Watcher eyes will be illuminated briefly when they are ready to
fire at you.
add: Watchers can now briefly put you into "Overwatch" and penalise you
for moving while they can see you.
add: Wounded watchers will occasionally punish players who look at them.
balance: Unusual watcher variants are more likely to appear.

## About The Pull Request
i have refactored ice whelps into basic mobs. They are now the artistic
sort as theyll mark their territory by seeking out icy rocks and carve
out statues of theirselves using their claws to serve as a warning to
players/animals that this is dragon turf and theyll also go out of their
way to burn any trees in vicinity just for the hell of it. they are now
gruesome cannibals if they find a corpse of one of their kin near them
theyll go eat it for nurishment. AS for combat, they have a new ability
which allows them to release fire in all directions however theyll only
use this ability once their enraged meter is full. to make it fair ive
given them a new component which allows them to telegraph abilities and
only do them after a delay so players can react in time for it.

* Basic Lobstrosity (#77253)
## About The Pull Request
I'm slowly chipping away at mining mobs. These ones also got some new
sprites because the old ones were a bit weird except when facing South.
Arctic Lobstrosities are now hairy to give them a little more visual
distinction from Lavaland ones.
In terms of behaviour, they're now a little faster and can charge you
from further away.
They will _only_ attack players who are incapacitated in some way
(primarily from being hit by their charge, but could be from a Goliath
or something too) and will otherwise keep their distance until they can
charge again. They move slower for a short duration after charging
though, so you have time to slap them a bit.
If a Lobstrosity downs you then it will try to snip off one of your
arms, then retreat in order to eat it.
Obviously nobody likes losing an arm, but this does give you an
opportunity to get away while it is distracted? Funnily enough the way
our health system works means that sometimes losing that arm actually
takes you out of soft crit so you can stumble back to the station for a
replacement (or try to wrestle yours back?)
All of these things are achievable also by a player if you make one
sapient, they will pull arms off mobs they attack which are in crit and
can eat arms if they see them lying around if they want.
I added an element to let you dismember people with your bare hands,
maybe someone evil can use it to add a beheading attack some day.
Here's a video of their new behaviours:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9eKxsH7hD7Q
## Why It's Good For The Game
Gives mobs more character.
Reduces our list of frozen simple mobs.
Replaces some ugly side sprites.
Medbay enrichment?
## Changelog
🆑
refactor: Lobstrosities are now basic mobs and have different AI
behaviour. Please report anything which seems like it shouldn't be
happening.
add: Lobstrosities will now only opportunistically attack things they
have knocked over with their charge, and are otherwise timid.
add: Lobstrosities are hungry for fingers and will steal one of your
arms if they defeat you in combat, although this gives you time to crawl
away.
sprite: New sprites for Lobstrosities.

* Goliath basic mob (#76754)
## About The Pull Request
Converts Goliaths to the basic mob framework and gives them some new
moves because I can't leave things well enough alone.
I am planning on touching all the lavaland fauna and then maybe even the
icebox ones if I haven't got bored. The Golaith is the first because it
is iconic.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JNcKvMwT4-Q
Here's me getting killed by one as a demonstration. Despite my poor
performance I would contend that they aren't a _lot_ more dangerous, but
they are a little more dangerous.
The chief difference here is that they have two new attacks which they
will only use in response to being attacked.
If fired at from range, they will target the attacker with a line of
tentacles (it doesn't track you, so is easily sidestepped).
If attacked in melee, they will surround _themselves_ with tentacles, on
a longer cooldown.
Something else you may notice in this video: I discovered that basic
mobs are actually _too smart_ to be Lavaland fauna.
Typically (unlike their old form) a mob on our new AI system is smart
enough to attack someone _the moment they come into range_ rather than
only checking on predictable ticks, which would make using the Crusher
an essentially unviable prospect.
To counteract this, Goliaths now have a delayed attack component which
gives you a visual warning and short duration to get out of range before
they swing at you. I will probably put this on all mining fauna that get
reworked, it wouldn't be a terrible thing to put on other mobs to be
honest.
Other changes: The goliath stun is now a status effect with _buckles_
you to the tentacle as if grabbed, as well as its previous effects.
While this seems purely worse, any nearby helpers can now help-click on
you to instantly remove the debuff.
Experiencing the effect of a Lobstrosity Rush Gland makes you immune to
being grabbed by tentacles and an implanted one will automatically
trigger and free you if you are hit, and the explosive effect of
Brimdust also causes the tentacle to retract (although you'd need to
take damage for this to happen). Using the tools of the land, you can
make these creatures less threatening.
The ability for a Goliath to chain-apply the ability has now also been
reduced, it won't refresh its duration if you are hit when already
buckled.
When not occupied hounding miners, Goliaths will intermittently dig up
the asteroid sand and eat any worms that this produces.
I also made some new sprites for riding a Goliath because they've been
broken since the Lavaland mob update and also kind of were ugly before
then anyway:
Other code changes:
- I made an element which only lets an attached object move every x
seconds. This is because Goliaths are far too slow to use the speed
system (the glide just looks bugged as hell) but one thing I am invested
in when converting these is to make sure that they share the same
behaviour when player or AI controlled. This is disabled while you're
riding them because it was interminably slow.
- The Goliath tentacle trail uses a supertype object now shared with the
Meteor Heart which did something kind of similar.
## Why It's Good For The Game
It begins the process of moving one of our larger subsets of NPCs onto
the newer framework for NPC behaviour.
It adds a little bit more life to an iconic but slightly uninteresting
foe which mostly just walked at you slowly.
This PR contains a few components I expect to apply more widely to other
mobs in the future.
## Changelog
🆑
refactor: Goliaths now use the Basic Mob framework, please report any
unusual behaviour.
add: Goliaths learned a couple of new attacks which they will use in
self-defence.
balance: Help-clicking a miner grabbed by Goliath tentacles will
immediately free them, as will the effect of several items you can
scavenge from around Lavaland.
image: New sprites for the Goliath saddle.

* Fixes Ceiling Generation for Lavaland Icemoon Ruin - Whoops (#74567)
## About The Pull Request
Forgot to do this in #74410. It's **not** the reason why we see active
turfs on icebox station though, because this is just closed turfs. The
active turfs never spawned as a result of this, they only spawn as a
result of the open turfs of the ruin mixing with chasm air. The ceiling
looks a lot better now though.

## About The Pull Request

(1e58c1875d).
```txt
- Z-Level 2 has 150 active turf(s).
- Z-Level 3 has 150 active turf(s).
- Z-Level trait Ice Ruins Underground has 300 active turf(s).

- End of active turf list.
```
Basically the lavaland ruin sucks dogshit and I had to do a lot of stuff to account for everything failing. There was even a moment where we were adding something to `flags_1` instead of `turf_flags` and that was also really bad to figure out.
i also had to add orange genturfs because it was really getting bad with all of the assertions we had to keep making, especially since stuff like this could also show up:
That's the prison in the red box, those are active turfs because a chasm scraped it away.
Sorry if this is hard to follow but I promise you everything in this is essential. I wish we didn't have to rely on turf flags as much as we do but this is a fix PR, not a refactor.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Even one active turf on IceBox ate up _three_ seconds of SSair's initialization every single time it was really fucking bad.
We haven't had to deal with chasms for about two years so there's a lot of mapping assertions we made since they just weren't a thing, but now they're back so lets do it properly.
## Changelog
🆑
fix: The prison on IceBox should no longer leak air as often.
/🆑
I have compiled this map about 30 times until active turfs stopped fucking happening and now I am content. This likely doesn't fix _everything_ because some stuff can still be hidden to me, and we still have PRs that need to be merged to reduce the amount of noise we're getting on prod.
