Simply converts all instances of soundkeys that use get_sfx from strings into defines.
E.g. "sparks" is now SFX_SPARKS
Why It's Good For The Game
It makes life a lot easier when you're looking for a sound effect. You just type SFX_ and you get suggestions in VSC. Plus, it looks better.

Not player facing.
a month or two ago i realized that on master the reason why get_hearers_in_view() overtimes so much (ie one of our highest overtiming procs at highpop) is because when you transmit a radio signal over the common channel, it can take ~20 MILLISECONDS, which isnt good when 1. player verbs and commands usually execute after SendMaps processes for that tick, meaning they can execute AFTER the tick was supposed to start if master is overloaded and theres a lot of maptick 2. each of our server ticks are only 50 ms, so i started on optimizing this.
the main optimization was SSspatial_grid which allows searching through 15x15 spatial_grid_cell datums (one set for each z level) far faster than iterating over movables in view() to look for what you want. now all hearing sensitive movables in the 5x5 areas associated with each spatial_grid_cell datum are stored in the datum (so are client mobs). when you search for one of the stored "types" (hearable or client mob) in a radius around a center, it just needs to
iterate over the cell datums in range
add the content type you want from the datums to a list
subtract contents that arent in range, then contents not in line of sight
return the list
from benchmarks, this makes short range searches like what is used with radio code (it goes over every radio connected to a radio channel that can hear the signal then calls get_hearers_in_view() to search in the radios canhear_range which is at most 3) about 3-10 times faster depending on workload. the line of sight algorithm scales well with range but not very well if it has to check LOS to > 100 objects, which seems incredibly rare for this workload, the largest range any radio in the game searches through is only 3 tiles
the second optimization is to enforce complex setter vars for radios that removes them from the global radio list if they couldnt actually receive any radio transmissions from a given frequency in the first place.
the third optimization i did was massively reduce the number of hearables on the station by making hologram projectors not hear if dont have an active call/anything that would make them need hearing. so one of hte most common non player hearables that require view iteration to find is crossed out.
also implements a variation of an idea oranges had on how to speed up get_hearers_in_view() now that ive realized that view() cant be replicated by a raycasting algorithm. it distributes pregenerated abstract /mob/oranges_ear instances to all hearables in range such that theres at max one per turf and then iterates through only those mobs to take advantage of type-specific view() optimizations and just adds up the references in each one to create the list of hearing atoms, then puts the oranges_ear mobs back into nullspace. this is about 2x as fast as the get_hearers_in_view() on master
holy FUCK its fast. like really fucking fast. the only costly part of the radio transmission pipeline i dont touch is mob/living/Hear() which takes ~100 microseconds on live but searching through every radio in the world with get_hearers_in_radio_ranges() -> get_hearers_in_view() is much faster, as well as the filtering radios step
the spatial grid searching proc is about 36 microseconds/call at 10 range and 16 microseconds at 3 range in the captains office (relatively many hearables in view), the new get_hearers_in_view() was 4.16 times faster than get_hearers_in_view_old() at 10 range and 4.59 times faster at 3 range
SSspatial_grid could be used for a lot more things other than just radio and say code, i just didnt implement it. for example since the cells are datums you could get all cells in a radius then register for new objects entering them then activate when a player enters your radius. this is something that would require either very expensive view() calls or iterating over every player in the global list and calling get_dist() on them which isnt that expensive but is still worse than it needs to be
on normal get_hearers_in_view cost the new version that uses /mob/oranges_ear instances is about 2x faster than the old version, especially since the number of hearing sensitive movables has been brought down dramatically.
with get_hearers_in_view_oranges_ear() being the benchmark proc that implements this system and get_hearers_in_view() being a slightly optimized version of the version we have on master, get_hearers_in_view_as() being a more optimized version of the one we have on master, and get_hearers_in_LOS() being the raycasting version currently only used for radios because it cant replicate view()'s behavior perfectly.
About The Pull Request
As the title says. Players were able to disable the safety of the holodeck without the console being emagged, and without being a robot.
Why It's Good For The Game
I think it would be interesting to add some sort of replacement to this, like players with high gamer skill could disable the safety.

fix: Fixes an exploit that allowed players to disable holodeck safety without following the proper conditions
/cl
Turfs have a variable, intact, which conflates three meanings:
Determining whether there's something that can be pried out, such as directly with a crowbar or indirectly with a tile stack and a crowbar off-hand.
Determining whether underfloor pieces are visible.
Determining whether underfloor pieces can be interacted with - by players with tools, through interaction with effects like chemical acid, or foam.
When plating is hit with a stack of tiles, /turf/open/floor/attackby checks whether the turf is intact, and if so, ends the attack chain regardless of whether or not the attempt to hotswap a turf (with a crowbar) is successful or not. However, turfs which want the underfloor to be visible - such as catwalks and glass - set the intact variable to FALSE, and so can be repeatedly placed over one another, as if they were the first tile to be placed over the plating.
This refactors /turf/var/intact into two distinct variables:
/turf/var/overfloor_placed, for whether or not there is something over plating.
/turf/var/underfloor_visible, for whether or not the various underfloor pieces should be invisible, visible, or both visible and interactable.
All references to /turf/var/intact have been replaced with an equivalent overfloor_placed or underfloor_visible reference, depending on which check is appropriate. underfloor_accessibility can take one of UNDERFLOOR_HIDDEN, UNDERFLOOR_VISIBLE, or UNDERFLOOR_INTERACTABLE. This prevents cases such as acid foam or tools phasing through glass floors to affect the underfloor pieces underneath, and covers all kinds of unusual, not-wiring-visiblity usage such as Holodeck completeness, Revenant interaction, or station integrity checking.

no idea where to put some of these procs, help is appreciated
made more files to contain some unique code, deleted unsorted.dm, we can rest now
## About The Pull Request
stop forgetting to include mapload, if you don't include it then every single subtype past it by default doesn't include it
for example, `obj/item` didn't include mapload so every single item by default didn't fill in mapload

## Regex used:
procs without args, not even regex
`/Initialize()`
procs with args
`\/Initialize\((?!mapload)((.)*\w)?`
cleanup of things i didn't want to mapload:
`\/datum\/(.)*\/Initialize\(mapload`
original pr here: #59789 (Closed because he didn't think it was good enough)
came back to this because i realized that
all machines were area sensitive, meaning they had a list with at least a reference to themselves (assuming they arent in the contents of another movable which most arent) for the purposes of handling power differences when their area changes
pipes are machines
there are ~14k machines and ~6k pipes
i made this problem worse with a recent pr by making it a nested list
so i needed to track what machines needed power, and this pr had work already done that could be used for that purpose. now machines that have use_power == NO_POWER_USE do not have this extra memory overhead for no reason
currently every machine that uses power draws that amount from its area from a dynamic channel via auto_use_power() which is called every SSmachines fire(), then in apc/process() the area's dynamic power draw is reset and the power is used. with static power its not calculated then reset every loop, its just taken from the grid. so now machines handle updating their static power usage from their current area (this doesnt touch power machines that require a wire connection). in order to allow this, use_power, idle_power_usage, and active_power_usage have setters to track state correctly and update the static power usage on the machines current area and handle area sensitivity.
also goes through a lot of heavy abusers of SSmachine processing time and tries to make it faster. makes airalarm/process() into a signal handler for COMSIG_TURF_EXPOSE since air alarms only need to process for changes.
Why It's Good For The Game
SSmachines isnt the heaviest hitter in terms of total cpu and certainly not in terms of overtime, but its not a lightweight. it frequently takes > 50ms to complete a run and seems to be in the top 5 or so of subsystem costs looking at some round profilers
also gets rid of a few thousand lists since every pipe no longer has two useless lists each (and any other machines that dont use power)

This PR kills off the transforming subtype of /obj/item/melee and replaces it with a component to handle the transforming behavior, /datum/component/transforming.
The transforming component handles updating the variables of an item when it's transformed. Things like force, sharpness, whetstone force bonus, and attack verbs. Similar to the two-handed component, but instead of transforming into a two-hander it remains a one handed weapon.
The "nemesis" behavior (dealing addition damage to certain factions) of the transforming subtype was moved to the cleaving saw only, since it was the only transforming item that used it. In the future, this can be made into a bespoke element/component as well.
The following weapons and items have been updated to use this component:
Energy Swords / Sabers / Bananium Energy Sword
Energy Circular Saw
Energy Dagger
Energy Axe
Toy Energy Sword
Holographic Energy Sword
Switchblade
Advanced Medical Tools (Laser scalpel, Mechanical Pinches, Searing Tool)
Advanced Engineering Tools (Hand Drill, Jaws of Life / Syndicate Jaws of Life)
Combat Wrench
Cleaving Saw
Telescopic Batons / Contractor Batons
Roasting Stick
Telescopic Riot Shield
Energy Shield / Bananium Energy Shield
This PR also touches up the code around the various above items.
turns out mobs spawned from holodeck spawners dont get registered for qdeletion, now they do. hard dels btfo
hard dels are poo poo and holodeck issues are definitely 100x worse
Converts most spans into span procs. Mostly used regex for this and sorted out any compile time errors afterwards so there could be some bugs.
Was initially going to do defines, but ninja said to make it into a proc, and if there's any overhead, they can easily be changed to defines.
Makes it easier to control the formatting and prevents typos when creating spans as it'll runtime if you misspell instead of silently failing.
Reduces the code you need to write when writing spans, as you don't need to close the span as that's automatically handled by the proc.
(Note from Lemon: This should be converted to defines once we update the minimum version to 514. Didn't do it now because byond pain and such)
Sourced from #59118 and a cursed project I'll pr later, This pr contains a lot of harddel fixes for stuff that pops up after a player interacts with something. I'm not gonna list them all here because there's something like 60 130, check the commit log if you're curious
Oh and I moved ref tracking screaming to a separate define, and made some optimizations to the thing in general. I think that's it, this pr is a bit of a frankenstine
decals were hard deleting whenever you loaded a holodeck program with them because it wasnt taking them out of the spawned list, now it does that. also goes around holodeck code and changes for loops to as anything and puts in better var names.
also since its been a while since i looked at holodeck code, the thing could really use a better rewrite one of these days.

Fixes#57446
yeah not my best moment, holodeck currently sets SSatoms to add every call to InitAtom() to a list and then give it back to the holodeck console (it actually goes through map_template/holodeck to do it but whatever). However it turns out atom/New() calls InitAtom too, so if an atom is created while SSatoms is still creating the list to give to the holodeck then that atom is added to the list regardless of whether or not its actually from the holodeck template.
Now theres an extra argument to InitAtom that tells it whether its spawned directly from a map template (ie, its part of the input list of uninitialized atoms that InitializeAtoms was given) or otherwise the output list that the holodeck uses is populated by calling GetAllContents on all atom/movables spawned directly from the template.
also renamed some vars in initTemplateBounds because it was hard to reason what it was doing and made it use as anything
also note that loading a map template with returns_created_atoms = TRUE will no longer track atoms that arent in the map file but are spawned directly onto a turf, currently nothing does this with the holodeck (which is the only map template that has this feature)
by the way this bug is my fault
Why It's Good For The Game
incredibly incredibly unlucky new players dont deserve to be deleted just because they didnt spawn in the holodeck

Creates update_name and update_desc
Creates the wrapper proc update_appearance to batch update_name, update_desc, and update_icon together
Less non-icon handling code in update_icon and friends
Signal hooks for things that want to change names and descriptions
99%+ of the changes in this are just from switching everything over to update_appearance from update_icon
Converts many proc overrides to properly use list/modifiers, fixes some spots where modifiers should have been passed, calls modifiers what it is, a lazy list, and cleans up some improper arg names like L, M, C, and N. Oh and I think there was a spot where someone was trying to pass M.name in as a string, but forgot to wrap it in []. I fixed that too.
Done using this command sed -Ei 's/(\s*\S+)\s*\t+/\1 /g' code/**/*.dm
We have countless examples in the codebase with this style gone wrong, and defines and such being on hideously different levels of indentation. Fixing this to keep the alignment involves tainting the blames of code your PR doesn't need to be touching at all. And ultimately, it's hideous.
There are some files that this sed makes uglier. I can fix these when they are pointed out, but I believe this is ultimately for the greater good of readability. I'm more concerned with if any strings relied on this.

runtime in holodeck/finish_spawn() that dealt with doing shit with the atoms in the spawned list, which in some cases cease to exist. now finish_spawn has a check to see if the entry in the spawned list actually exists.
also fixes another small issue with the holodeck process() continually trying to load the offline program and getting rejected which causes the holodeck to give the "ERROR. Recalibrating projection apparatus." message, which it no longer does if the program is forced.
About The Pull Request
This PR removes intents and replaces them with a combat mode. An explanation of what this means can be found below
Major changes:
Disarm and Grab intents have been removed.
Harm/Help is now combat mode, toggled by F or 4 by default
The context/verb/popup menu now only works when you do shift+right-click
Right click is now disarm, both in and out of combat mode.
Grabbing is now on ctrl-click.
If you're in combat mode, and are currently grabbing/pulling someone, and ctrl-click somewhere else, it will not release the grab (To prevent misclicks)
Minor interaction changes:
Right click to dissasemble tables, racks, filing cabinets (When holding the right tool to do so)
Left click to stunbaton, right click to harmbaton
Right click to tip cows
Right click to malpractice surgery
Right click to hold people at gunpoint (if youre holding a gun)
Why It's Good For The Game
Intents heavily cripple both the code and the UI design of interactions. While I understand that a lot of people will dislike this PR as they are used to intents, they are one of our weakest links in terms of explaining to players how to do specific things, and require a lot more keypresses to do compared to this.
As an example, martial arts can now be done without having to juggle 1 2 3 and 4 to switch intents quickly.
As some of you who saw the first combat mode PR, the context menu used to be disabled in combat mode. In this version it is instead on shift-right click ensuring that you can always use it in the same way.
In this version, combat mode also no longer prevents you from attacking with items when you would so before, as this was something that was commonly complained about.
The full intention of this shift in control scheme is that right click will become "secondary interaction" for items, which prevents some of the awkward juggling we have now with item modes etcetera.

Fixes#56561
the holodeck control console now returns if the previous program still has not finished loading in, so it should now be impossible to have two concurrent load_program() processes running at the same time and thus programs should not overlap under lag. tested locally with around 80% time dilation and 0 holodeck cooldown while spamming the fuck out of loading simulations
Refactors the holodeck to use map templates instead of copy_contents_to, which every maintainer seems to have complaints about.
Fixes#41485 because the matches become part of the spawned list created by ssatoms
Fixes#54789 because the holodeck area no longer has the NO_TELEPORT flag
Fixes#55676 because the map templates cant be changed midround unlike the program copies in the centcom z level
Fixes#49318 because the holodeck no longer creates new areas like the original did
This pr also changes initTemplateBounds to be a /datum/map_template proc instead of a parsed_map proc. This was mainly so I wouldn't have to duplicate vars between map_template and parsed_map. It's also nice because there's no longer a parsed_map proc inside the map_template file, especially when it didn't need to be a parsed_map proc.
The holodeck sims wont take up space in the centcom z level any more (which allows for more possible programs in the future), and map templates are more heavily tested. This is also a chance to future proof the holodeck against bugs. Holodeck also seems more responsive. This should allow for a second custom holodeck in some future ruin as well, although that of course will not be in play for the near future because of the offstation content ban. Also I documented the fuck out of the holodeck

This turns wheelys into a skateboard subtype so they are no longer a copy paste of old skateboard code. They have lower stability compared to skateboards.
I've also made a whole bunch of small adjustments in the process to make skateboard code cleaner and more modular, such as turning the improvised skateboard to its own subtype so that construction steps don't need to be overwritten for all subtypes
Adds two subtypes of wheelys:
-Rollerskates: more stable than wheelys but slow you down when the wheels are retracted
-Skishoes: For skiing! Only work on snow, obviously
