This adds a tracker for sources of invisibility and a priority system. I
needed this for another thing so I'm doing this first since it touches a
lot of code. As for the bugs fixed in the changelog, it's only what I
noticed while going through everything and there's likely a few more
things fixed with this. This should be testmerged for a while, I'll
bring this out of draft when it feels safe.

admin: Invisimin can now be used on mobs that are already invisible,
whether through temporary or permanent effects.
fix: Monkeyize/Humanize mob transformations no longer permanently reveal
invisible mobs if they had effects making them invisible otherwise.
fix: Objects with the undertile element that have been made invisible
through other means are no longer revealed by being uncovered.

## About The Pull Request
The changes made can be best summarized into points
**1. Cleans up `code/_DEFINES/construction.dm`**
Looking at the top comment of this file
0fb8b8b218/code/__DEFINES/construction.dm (L1)
One would expect stuff related to materials, rcd, and other construction
related stuff. Well this file is anything but
Why is there stuff related to food & crafting over here then?
0fb8b8b218/code/__DEFINES/construction.dm (L91-L94)
It gets worse why are global lists declared here?
0fb8b8b218/code/__DEFINES/construction.dm (L115)
There is a dedicated folder to store global lists i.e.
`code/_globalvars/lists` for lists like these. These clearly don't
belong here
On top of that a lot of construction related defines has been just
dumped here making it too large for it's purposes. which is why this
file has been scraped and it's
1. crafting related stuff have been moved to its
`code/_DEFINES/crafting.dm`
2. global lists for crafting moved to
`code/_globalvars/lists/crafting.dm`
3. Finally remaining construction related defines split apart into 4
file types under the new `code/_DEFINES/construction` folder
- `code/_DEFINES/construction/actions.dm` -> for wrench act or other
construction related actions
- `code/_DEFINES/construction/material.dm` -> contains your sheet
defines and cable & stack related values. Also merged
`code/_DEFINES/material.dm` with this file so it belongs in one place
- `code/_DEFINES/construction/rcd.dm` -> dedicated file for everything
rcd related
- `code/_DEFINES/construction/structures.dm` -> contains the
construction states for various stuff like walls, girders, floodlight
etc
By splitting this file into multiple meaningful define file names will
help in reducing merge conflicts and will aid in faster navigation so
this is the 1st part of this PR
**2. Debloats the `RCD.dm` file(Part 1)**
This uses the same concepts as above. i.e. moving defines into their
appropriate files for e.g.
0fb8b8b218/code/game/objects/items/rcd/RCD.dm (L170)
1. Global vars belong in the `code/_globalvars` folder so these vars and
their related functions to initialize them are moved into the
`code/_globalvars/rcd.dm` file
2. See this proc
0fb8b8b218/code/game/objects/items/rcd/RCD.dm (L200)
This proc does not belong to the `obj/item/construction/rcd` type it's a
global "helper function" this is an effect proc as it creates rcd
holograms so it has been moved to the `code/game/objects/effects/rcd.dm`
file which is a global effect that can be used by anyone
And with that we have moved these vars & procs into their correct places
& reduced the size of this file . We can go even further
**3. Debloats the `RCD.dm` file(Part 2)**
This deals with the large list which contains all the designs supported
by the RCD
0fb8b8b218/code/game/objects/items/rcd/RCD.dm (L42)
This list contains a lot of local defines. We can scrape some of them
and reduce the overall bulkiness & memory requirements of this list and
so the following defines
```
#define WINDOW_TYPE "window_type"
#define COMPUTER_DIR "computer_dir"
#define WALLFRAME_TYPE "wallframe_type"
#define FURNISH_TYPE "furnish_type"
#define AIRLOCK_TYPE "airlock_type"
#define TITLE "title"
#define ICON "icon"
#define CATEGORY_ICON_STATE "category_icon_state"
#define CATEGORY_ICON_SUFFIX "category_icon_suffix"
#define TITLE_ICON "ICON=TITLE"
```
Have all been removed making this list a lot more cleaner. Why? because
a lot of these are just semantic sugar, we can infer the value of a lot
of these defines if we just know the type path of the structure the rcd
is trying to build for e.g. take these 2 defines
0fb8b8b218/code/game/objects/items/rcd/RCD.dm (L13-L15)
These defines tell the rcd UI the name and the icon it should display.
Rather than specifying these manually in the design we can infer them
like this
```
var/obj/design = /obj/structure/window //let's say the rcd is trying to build an window
var/name = initial(design.name) //we have inferred the name of the design without requiring TITLE define
var/icon = initial(design.icon_state) //we have inferred the icon of the design without requiring ICON define
```
And so by using similar logic to the remaining defines we can eliminate
a lot of these local defines and reduce the overall size of this list.
The same logic applies to the different modes of construction, the
following defines
0fb8b8b218/code/__DEFINES/construction.dm (L186-L192)
Have all been removed and replaced with a single value `RCD_STRUCTURE`
All these modes follow the same principle when building them
1. First check the turf if the structure exists. If it does early return
2. If not create a new structure there and that's it
So rather than creating a new construction mode every time you want to
add a new design we can use this mode to apply this general approach
every time
The design list has also now been made into a global list rather than a
private static list. The big advantage to this is that the rcd asset
cache can now access this list and load the correct icons from the list
directly. This means you no longer have to manually specify what icons
you want to load which is the case currently.
0fb8b8b218/code/modules/asset_cache/assets/rcd.dm (L8-L9)
This has lead to the UI icons breaking twice now in the past
- #74194
- #77217
Hopefully this should never repeat itself again
**4. Other RCD like device changes**
- Fixed the broken silo link icon when the radial menu of the RLD was
opened
- replaced a lot of vars inside RLD with defines to save memory
- Small changes to `ui_act` across RCD, Plumbing RCD and RTD
- Removed unused vars in RCD and snowflaked code
- Moved a large majority of `ui_data()` to `ui_static_data()` making the
experience much faster
Just some general clean up going on here
**5. The Large majority of other code changes**
These are actually small code changes spread across multiple files.
These effect the `rcd_act()` & the `rcd_vals()` procs across all items.
Basically it
- Removes a large majority of `to_chat()` & `visible_message()` calls.
This was done because we already have enough visual feedback of what's
going on. When we construct a wall we don't need a `to_chat()` to tell
us you have a built a wall, we can clearly see that
- replaces the static string `"mode"` with a predefined constant
`RCD_DESIGN_MODE` to bring some standard to use across all cases
Should reduce chat spam and improve readability of code.
**6. Airlock & Window names**
The rcd asset cache relies on the design name to be unique. So i filled
in the missing names for some airlocks & windows which are subjective
and open to change but must have some value
**7 Removes Microwave PDA upgrade**
The RCD should not be allowed to build this microwave considering how
quickly it can spawn multiple structures and more importantly as it's a
special multipurpose machine so you should spend some effort in printing
it's parts and acquiring tools to complete it. This upgrade makes
obsolete the need to carry an
- A RPED to install the parts
- A screwdriver to complete the frame
- The circuit board for the microwave
The most important point to note here is that whenever an RPED/circuit
board is printed at an lathe it charges you "Lathe Tax". The RCD with
this upgrade would essentially bypass the need to "Pay Taxes" at these
lathes as you are just creating a circuit board from thin air. This
causes economy imbalance(10 cr per print) which scales up the more of
these machines you make so to avoid this let's end the problem here
Not to mention people would not find the need to print the circuit board
for a regular microwave now if they have an RCD because they can just
make this microwave type making the need for a regular microwave
completely pointless.
Just build a machine frame with the RCD and complete the microwave from
there
## Changelog
🆑
code: moved global vars, lists and helper procs for construction related
stuff to their appropriate files
code: reduced overall code size & memory of rcd design list and removed
unused defines
refactor: removed a ton of chat alerts for rcd related actions to help
reduce chat spam
refactor: some airlock & window default names have changed
fix: broken icon in radial menu of rld silo link
remove: removes microwave pda upgrade from RCD. It's a special machine
so spend some time in building it rather than shitting them out for free
with the RCD. Use the RCD upgrade to spawn a machine frame instead & go
from there

## About The Pull Request
Removes all of the duplicate global lists for specific machine types
where the only thing they do is store all machines of that type.
Adds machine tracking to SSmachines in the form of a list for all
machines, and then an associative list for machines by their type.
Previously we have machines in multiple global lists, such as airlocks
being in GLOB.doors, GLOB.airlocks, GLOB.machines.
This makes that not a thing, and also means that iterating through
GLOB.machines looking for a specific type is no longer as expensive.
## About The Pull Request
1. Debloats the RCD.dm file i.e. renames it to RHD[Rapid handheld device
the base for all rcd like devices] and moves its subtypes into their
respective files
`/obj/item/construction/rcd` moved to RCD.dm
`/obj/item/construction/rld` moved to RLD.dm
`/obj/item/construction/plumbing` moved to RPLD.dm
`/obj/item/construction/rtd` stays in RTD.dm
Other rcd like device i.e. RPD, RFC, RWD, along with the above mentioned
files are now all moved into 1 folder called "rcd"
majority of the `to_chat()` are now replaced with `balloon_alert()` to
reduce spam
2. Adds early returns, optimizes & adds extra resource sanity checks
before and after the `do_after()` proc for the RLD. RLD silo links now
works again.
- RLD now uses an ammo bar just like the RCD for updating only its
overlays & not its entire icon state, it also has a blinking yellow icon
state when low on ammo
- Remove unused empty blinking yellow icon state for plumbing RCD.
nobody designed the ammo bars for them so having`has_ammobar = TRUE`
caused the unit tests to fail
4. Adds extra structure placement & resource sanity checks for RCD, RTD
& Plumbing RCD before & after the `do_after()` proc
RCD Patches
- removes unused vars window_type & window_glass, these can be infered
from window_type directly
- removes furnish type & cost and let the rcd_vals() proc decide those
for consistency
- copies the rcd stuff from turf/floor to turf/open/misc with some
exceptions, It wasen't updated in a long time
- rcd vals i.e. cost & delay for window types are set for each
directional, full-tile, reinforced types. These all used constant values
& now they are adjusted accordingly
RTD patches
- Fixes#74526 RTD can lay floor tiles on all types of plating's
- The cost of deconstructing tiles was not calculated correctly i.e. it
always used the cost of the selected design & not the cost of the actual
floor type we are trying to deconstruct
- The construction & deconstruction time was constant & very fast for
all tile types, now the delay is adjusted based on the cost of the type
of tile in question
- RTD now has a blinking yellow empty icon state just like the RCD when
low on ammo
6. Fixes#73479 RCL now updates its pipe cleaning coil appearance when
changing colours & selecting white colour no longer yields a random coil
colour
7. makes sure `useResource() ` actually succeeds before doing any
action. The return value of this proc was not previously checked for
some devices
## Why It's Good For The Game
1. rcd like devices all moved into 1 folder for better organization
2. splits the original RCD.dm file into more logical & manageable files
for better maintainability
3. removes unused code & adds some extra sanity checks for everything
4. adds missing sprites for RLD & RTD

## About The Pull Request
- Rewrites how action button icons are generated.
- Prior, generated an action button icon was fairly simplistic and
didn't allow for many changes. Someone recently added the option for
overlays to be generated over action buttons, but the framework was very
weak.
- Now, action button icon generation is split across multiple procs,
like atom icon updates.
- The background of action buttons are underlays
- The actual icon of the action button is the icon and icon state of the
action button movable
- The rim / border of the button is an overlay, layered overtop the
button.
- Allows observers to see what action buttons a mob has. They even
update in real time! And no, the observers cannot click on them.
## Why It's Good For The Game
- Runechat text of action buttons are no longer hidden behind the actual
icon. This was very ugly with cooldown actions, as the cooldown text was
hidden behind a lot of spell icons.
- Cuts down on a lot of icon duplication.
- Gives much finer control over action button icons
- Saves a bit of processing from generating full action button icons
when not necessary. Not implemented in many places, but is in some.
## Changelog
🆑 Melbert
add: Observers can now see what action buttons an observed mob has. No,
you can't click them. And no it doesn't show EVERY action.
refactor: Refactored how action button icons are generated. Some actions
will now use a colored border when active instead of just turning green.
Cooldown text will also appear on the top layer of actions too. If you
see any funky lookin' icons (namely their borders), let me know.
refactor: Bluespace Golem's teleport action is now a cooldown action.
fix: Construct actions go to the middle of the screen like expected.

About The Pull Request
Converts more inputs to TGUI. Possibly all user-facing input lists in the game.
Did any surrounding text/number inputs as well
Added null choice support so users can press cancel.
Added some misc TGUI input fixes
Fixed custom vendors while I was there
I refactored a lot of code while just poking around.
Primarily, usage of .len in files where I was already working on lists.
Some code was just awful - look at guardian.dm and its non use of early returns
If there are any disputes, I can revert it just fine, those changes are not integral to the PR.
Why It's Good For The Game
Fixes#63629Fixes#63307
Fixes custom vendors /again/
Text input is more performant.
Part of a long series of TGUI conversion to make the game more visually appealing
Changelog
cl
refactor: The majority of user facing input lists have been converted to TGUI.
refactor: Tgui text inputs now scale with entered input.
fix: Many inputs now properly accept cancelling out of the menu.
fix: Fixes an edge case where users could not press enter on number inputs.
fix: Custom vendor bluescreen.
fix: You can now press ENTER on text inputs without an entry to cancel.
/cl
Fixes#62643
Fixes aux-base turrets from hard-deleting by handling their deleting on the aux base itself.
Converts the turrets list to a proper lazylist and cleans up some surrounding code involving the turrets list.
Also fixes a copy+paste error with tiny fans being placed.
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)
