* Fixes incorrect operator usage in mecha code (#82570)
## About The Pull Request
I completely screwed up and told the original PR author of #82415
(9922d2f237) to use the `XOR` operator
instead of the `OR` operator (I wasn't thinking right for some reason
when I was reading the ref), anyways this PR just fixes that because I
misled the contributor into doing something that wasn't correct and
actually would BREAK functionality instead.
* Fixes TGUI debugging tools (#82569)
This project doesn't interfere with the game logic and aims to fix
multiple debugging features that are currently broken. Unfortunately,
kitchen sink and debug layout became broken after migration to Redux.
This PR aims to fix those features.
* Removes unused code for HTML UIs (#82589)
## About The Pull Request
This is the final PR for https://hackmd.io/XLt5MoRvRxuhFbwtk4VAUA that
I've been slowly inching towards the past few months.
This removes ``updateDialog``, ``updateUsrDialog``, ``IN_USE``,
``INTERACT_MACHINE_SET_MACHINE``, and everything surrounding it. Also
fixes advanced camera consoles not booting you off when you're moved out
of reach.
We called ``check_eye`` on mob life whenever they had their machine var
set, but their machine var would never be set to anything that actually
used it, which I found to be a little funny but was also probably my
fault.
## Why It's Good For The Game
This is poor and unmaintained code used for HTML UIs that we no longer
need thanks to TGUI, we should get rid of it to encourage the use of
TGUI in the future instead.
## Changelog
🆑
fix: Advanced camera consoles now boots you off when you're moved out of
reach.

* Fixes a variety of input stalling exploits (#82577)
## About The Pull Request
Fixes the following input stalling exploits (maybe missed some):
- Changing GPS tag
- Setting teleporter destination
- Request Console Reply
- Various AI law board interactions
- Note, I used `is_holding` but technically this means these fail with
telekinesis. I can swap them to `can_perform_action(...)`, which allows
TK, but I noticed some places explicitly deny TK interactions with Ai
law boards. Not sure which is preferred.

* Refactor renaming UNIQUE_RENAME items from the pen to an element (#82491)
## About The Pull Request
So a bit ago someone in code_general wanted to make plushies renamable,
but learnt that just adding the `UNIQUE_RENAME` flag wouldn't work as
pens would murder the plushie and only THEN let you rename it. I noted
refactoring both pens and plushies to use the new
`item_interaction(...)` procs would Just Solve This, but, well, they
didn't really have any coding experience.
But, hey, renaming being hardcoded to the pens has annoyed me ever since
I laid my eyes upon the hot mess that is paperwork code.
So here we are!
### We're making it an element.
There's not really much to this, this is mostly the same code but moved
to an element and with some minor cleanups.
First, we move it all from `/obj/item/pen` to a new element we called
`/datum/element/tool_renaming`. With this, instead of having it proc on
`/obj/item/pen/afterattack(...)`, we register it to proc on the
`COMSIG_ITEM_INTERACTING_WITH_ATOM` signal.
6e36ed9840/code/__DEFINES/dcs/signals/signals_atom/signals_atom_x_act.dm (L59-L62)
Secondly, we realize the code is just going through each if statement
regardless of whether the previous was correct.
6e36ed9840/code/modules/paperwork/pen.dm (L225-L258)
And, as we're dealing with text, just make it a switch statement
instead.
```dm
switch(pen_choice)
if("Rename")
(...)
if("Description")
(...)
if("Reset")
(...)
```
Then, we replace all single letter variables with descriptive ones,
replace the if-elses with early returns, and make it actually return
item interaction flags.
Finally, we slap this onto the pen, and we're done.
Now we can slap it onto other fitting renaming tools, and it uses the
proper item interaction system.
## Why It's Good For The Game
I feel it's generally better to not hardcode this to just pens, we have
plenty other writing utensils and possible renaming tools.
It's also a bit cleaner than before.
Apart from that, moves it from using `afterattack(...)` to the proper
item interaction chain by using `COMSIG_ITEM_INTERACTING_WITH_ATOM`,
which should reduce janky interactions.
## Changelog
🆑
refactor: Instead of being hardcoded to the pen, renaming items is now
an element. Currently only pens have this, and functionality should be
the same, but please report it if you find any items that were renamable
but now aren't.

* Adds various quality of life changes for cooking to make it less click intensive. (#82566)
## About The Pull Request
- Increases tray item size by 1 item.
- Ranges and griddles can now be fed from trays.
Click when closed => fill soup pot.
Click when open => fill associated oven tray.
Right click when open => fill tray from oven tray
Click griddle => fill griddle surface.
Right click => fill tray from griddle surface
- Martian batter is now 5u of each ingredient into 10u of batter.
Hopefully will make it bug out less where it makes far fewer reagents
than it is supposed to, fixing reagents, or well soups specifically...
is out of scope for this PR.
- Adds the ability to print soup pots and large trays from the service
lathe
Soup pot: 5 Iron sheets, 0.4 bluespace crystal (given their size of
200U)
Large serving tray: 2 iron sheets
## Why It's Good For The Game
Makes cooking a lot less tedious. Especially for people with low
precision when it comes to filling oven trays. This also bring the
behavior up to parity with how you can click microwaves with trays to
fill them, ditto for the food processor. It also allows chef to use the
whole capacity of an oven, as previously you couldn't easily click 6
cake batters or other giant sprites onto the tiny tray.
The tray is now sized to be able to easily feed a griddle 8 items.
## Changelog
🆑
qol: chef equipment can now deposit and withdraw to/from trays!
qol: chef now has access to griddle and oven sized trays!

* Living Limb fixes (feat: Basic mobs attack random body zones again) (#82556)
## About The Pull Request
Reworks Living Limb code to fix a bunch of runtimes and issues I saw
while testing Bioscrambler.
Specifically, the contained mobs are now initialised via element
following attachment so that signal registration can occur at the
correct time. This allows limbs to function correctly when added from
nullspace via admin panel or bioscrambler.
Secondarily (and more wide-ranging) at some point (probably #79563) we
inadvertently made basic mobs only attack the target's chest instead of
spreading damage.
This is problematic for Living Flesh which can only attach itself to
damaged limbs but was left unable to attack damaged limbs.
I've fixed this in a way which is maybe stupid: adding an element which
randomises attack zone pre-attack.
Living limbs also limit this to _only_ limbs (although it will fall back
to chest if you have no limbs at all).
This is _technically_ still different, the previous behaviour used
`adjustBruteLoss` and `adjustFireLoss` and would spread the damage
across your entire body, but there isn't a route to that via the new
interface and this seems close enough.
## Changelog
🆑
fix: Living Limbs created by Bioscrambler will be alive.
fix: Living Limbs can once more attach themselves to your body.
balance: Living Limbs will prioritise attacking your limbs.
fix: Basic Mobs will once again spread their damage across body zones
instead of only attacking your chest.

1. I just noticed this now but it only affects carbons / humans it

* Gives shadow walk a new, spookier, and shorter sound effect that no longer ignores walls (#82689)
## About The Pull Request
This gives shadow walk a snazzy new sound effect for entering/exiting
jaunt.
https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/assets/28870487/c25f720f-5bad-4063-8d6e-140fd41bd740
This also has the sounds it plays no longer passes through walls.
## Why It's Good For The Game
The ethereal_entrance/exit sound effects are drawn out, and pretty
grating. They work for the other jaunts they're used for because a jaunt
typically lasts longer than the sound itself. Nightmares are frequently
dancing in and out of jaunt, and the sound effects for entering/exiting
tend to overlap. It gets loud and annoying really fast.
This sound effect is quicker, spookier, and more distinct.
As for making the sound not ignore walls, I think it's pretty dumb how
easy it is to detect the spooky scary shadow antag just by sitting in
your department. It takes a lot of the initial fear and paranoia they
have the potential for is wasted when Joe Geneticist can hear them
messing around in their territory without having to leave their chair.

* Regal Rats can now tear down posters (#82673)
## About The Pull Request
i was fixing something on bagil and someone who was playing a regal rat
(after the round ended) said they wanted to be able to tear down posters
as a regal rat so i decided to code it because it made sense.
it's an element so literally any mob can tear down posters but i can't
think of any other mobs that would make sense to let it tear down
posters so we'll leave it just for _The Champion of All Mislaid
Creatures_ for now
## Why It's Good For The Game
Regal Rats should be all about sludgemaxxing and fucking up maintenance
to make it look even more grody than it should be. Being able to tear up
those disgusting and well-drawn posters to leave behind nothing but
scraps fits that motif. The element has a `do_after()` just to make sure
His Holiness doesn't accidentally tear down his posters while clicking
(i think all mobs should have this but that's a different issue man)
also includes some code improvement and user feedback in some failure
cases that already existed in the code.

## About The Pull Request
- Adds Strong Stomach quirk.
- 4 points
- You can eat dirty food without risk of getting disease.
- You suffer less negative effects from vomiting. Vomit stuns you for

- Reverts https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/pull/76864 , integrates
its effects into Strong Stomach instead.
## Why It's Good For The Game
- Lotta people (namely Lizards and sometimes Felines with Deviant
Tastes) run gimmicks involving them being a gremlin person and eating
trash off the ground, and it's rather hard to accomplish this now since
it makes you a public medbay enemy # 1. This quirk should give them an
option to avoid that.
- Also (as mentioned in the title) both CDDA and PZ have this trait and
I can't believe we're missing it! This is something in
modifiable-character-traits/quirks-101.
- I moved the effects from #76864 to this quirk because 1. I thought it
was more fitting and 2. I thought the original PR was kinda wack for
what is (generally) a neutral quirk.

* Makes it EVEN EASIER to work with atom item interactions ft. "Leaf and Branch" & "Death to Chains" (#82625)
* apc fix
* Gulag Adjustments Two (#82561)
## About The Pull Request
I have received feedback that after the prior changes in #81971, the
gulag is still a little bit too subject to RNG.
The main culprit (as in my previous PR) is Iron being kind of cheap and
the fact that unlike the old Gulag you no longer have any way of
headhunting more valuable materials (everything appears as boulders on
your ore scanner).
My solution to this is wider than the last one of tweaking point values,
but also much simpler:
Just make every boulder you mine be worth the same amount of points
regardless of what is inside of it.
On the average test I made I could comfortably mine about 40-45 boulders
in ten minutes.
We'll make some adjustments to that rather than leaving 40 as the target
number;
Most players upon being teleported to the gulag are going to spend a few
minutes whining and bemoaning their fate instead of getting straight to
work. I had the benefit of being able to make sure my run started as
soon as a storm ended so I wouldn't need any kind of midpoint break. I
was also always the only person playing on my local instance, there
hadn't been any other pesky prisoners before me who had already mined
out all the nearest available deposits. And of course, let us not
forget, I am an MLG master league ss13 player who was surely performing
well above average.
So we'll round that down to: Each boulder is worth 33 points, meaning
you need to collect 31 boulders to complete a 1000 point (roughly ten
minute) sentence.
How do I ensure that every boulder is worth the same amount of points?
Well it's pretty easy.
One boulder = one material sheet. One material sheet = 33 points.
Simple.
"Now Jacquerel", I hear you not saying because you don't want me to know
about this thing you would prefer to do instead of hitting rocks
outside; "if I simply smash all of the tables and microwaves and botany
trays and bed in the gulag I can easily get like 65 sheets of Iron,
which is almost enough to buy the freedom for two entire people!"
Unfortunately I knew you were going to try and do that and the prisoner
point machine will only give you points for material sheets which have
been printed from the material smelter (well, any material smelter
actually but you should probably use the one in the gulag). You'll be
able to tell because if you examine a valid material sheet it will
mention a little maker's mark on it, which is absent in the beat-up iron
that you get from smashing furniture to bits.
Also glass is worth 0 points. Don't waste time digging up that shit.
As glass has had all of its point value removed, I have added a "work
pit" to the gulag to compensate. You can pull boulders out of this
indefinitely via effort, however it also stamcrits you every time.
It's not very fun to do this, but that's because I would prefer you to
go find the rocks out in the field instead. This is a last resort.
You can do this if there's no boulders left to mine or if you really
really really hate mining and would rather very slowly click on one tile
repeatedly to get your boulders instead.
As a tiny bonus doing this gives workout experience.
This isn't a totally ideal solution but I think it'll do for now.
## Why It's Good For The Game
What we want out of the gulag is:
- Something where officers can vaguely approximate an expected sentence
duration.
- A task that requires players to actually be spending that time doing
something to get out of here.
- Produces at least some amount of useful materials.
In I think roughly that order.
I hope this change accomplishes all three of these in a way that is
somewhat predictable rather than throwing darts at a board.
## Changelog
🆑
balance: Gulag mining has been rebalanced so that every boulder is worth
the same amount of points to mine for a prisoner regardless of what it
contains, and should be more consistent.
add: A vent which boulders can be hauled out of by hand has been added
to the gulag which you can use if there's nothing left to mine. It is
very slow, but at least it gives you a workout...

## About The Pull Request
Turf references don't change so logically, turf weakrefs wouldn't change
if the turf changes.
By not doing this this can cause bugs: See #82886 . (This Fixes#82886)
(Projectiles hold a list of weakrefs to atoms hit to determine what they
have already hit.
Because turf weakrefs reset, we could "hit" the same turf twice if it
destroyed the turf.
Old behavior - this was fine but now that they're weakrefs, we get two
weakref datums in the list that point to the same ref.)

* Change COGBAR_ANIMATION_TIME to seconds and not deciseconds (#82530)
Most people should not be using this define
* New Battle Arcade (#81810)
Remakes Battle Arcade from just about the ground up, with exceptions
taken for emagged stuff since I didn't really want to touch its
behavior.
The Battle Arcade now has stages that players can go through, unlocking
a stage by beating 2 enemies and the boss of the previous one, but this
must all be done in a row. You can choose to take a break between each
battle and there's a good chance you'll sleep just fine but there's also
a chance it can go wrong either through an ambush or robbery.
The Inn lets you restore everything for 15 gold and you can buy a sword
and armor, each level you unlock is a new sword and armor pair you can
buy that's better than the last, it's 30 gold each but scales up as you
progress through levels. They are really worth getting so it's best to
try to not lose your money early in.
The battle system is nearly the same as how it was before but I removed
the poor combo system that plagued the old arcade as one big knowledge
lock, now it's more just turn based. The game is built on permadeath so
dying means you restart from the beginning, but if you are going to lose
you can try to escape instead which costs you half of your gold.
Getting to higher levels increases the difficulty of enemies but also
increases the gaming exp rewards which could make this a better way to
get exp if you can get good at it.
Gaming EXP is used to increase chances of counterattacking but doesn't
give any extra health to the player.
I also removed the exploit of being able to screwdriver arcade cabinets
because people would do that if they thought they were on the verge of
losing to bypass the effects of loss. I instead replaced it with a new
interaction that the Curator's display case key can be used to reset
arcade cabinets (there's several keys on the chain so it made sense to
me), which I added solely because I thought Curators would be the type
of person to have run an actual arcade.
This is some gameplay
https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/assets/53777086/499083f5-75cc-43b5-b457-017a012beede
As a misc sidenote, I also split up the arcade file just like how Orion
Trail was before, just for neat code organization.
The Inn keeper is straight up just a photo of my localhost dude, he's
not a player reference or anything it's not my actual character.
I also have no idea how well balanced this is cause I suck at it lol.
Battle Arcade is one of 3 last machines in my hackmd here to turn into
TGUI https://hackmd.io/XLt5MoRvRxuhFbwtk4VAUA?view
I've always thought the current version of battle arcade is quite lame
and lacks any progression, like Orion Trail I thought that since I was
moving this to TGUI, it would also be a perfect opportunity to revamp it
and try to improve on where it failed before, especially since the
alternative (NTOS Arcade) is also lame as hell and is even lamer than
HTML battle arcade (spam mana, then spam health, then just spam attack,
rinse and repeat).
This will hopefully be more entertaining and give players sense that
they are getting through a series of tasks rather than doing one same
one again and again.
🆑 JohnFulpWillard, Zeek the Rat
add: Battle Arcade has been completely overhauled in a new progression
system, this time using TGUI.
add: The Curator's keys can now reset arcade cabinets.
balance: You now need to be literate to play arcade games, except for
Mediborg's Amputation Adventure.
fix: You can no longer screwdriver emagged arcade consoles. Accept your
fate.
fix: Silicons can no longer play Mediborg's Amputation Adventure.

* Change setting item weight class to a setter to patch some weight class related shenanigans (#82494)
## About The Pull Request
Fixes#81052Fixes#58008
Setting weight class of items is now done via `update_weight_class`.
I updated as many occurrences of manually setting `w_class` as I could
find but I may have missed some. Let me know if you know of any I
missed.
This is done to allow datums to react to an item having its weight class
changed.
Humans and atom storage are two such datums which now react to having an
item in its contents change weight class, to allow it to expel items
that grow to a weight class beyond what is normally allowed.
## Changelog

fitting it in the storage when it is small, then growing it to a larger

* Material datum color update, plus touching up some material items (knight armor, tiles) (#82500)
## About The Pull Request
Tries to bring the material datum colors in closer approximation to the
stacks they're attached too. I literally used the colors on the stacks.
some might need to be lighter or darker, but for the most part they'll
look...closer to their actual material hues.

I've also tweaked the sprites of both the tile object and the actual
material tile turf to give it the right shading.

In addition to the tiles, I've also updated the knight armor and helmet
to look closer to the much higher quality plate armor already in the
game.
## Why It's Good For The Game
It bothered me that the material datum coloring was inconsistent with
the actual colors used for the material stacks. When they were updated,
and even before they were updated, material datum stuff just never
looked _right_. I wanted to change that so that it looks just right.
I did not like the old material knight armor whatsoever. It was a
dithered mess, and seemed to already use parts of the standard plate
armor but with all the actual shading removed or replaced with the wrong
colors. This fixes that so that the armor is actually readable for what
it is.
## Changelog

in-line with their actual material stacks

* LateInitialize is not allowed to call parent anymore (#82540)
## About The Pull Request
I've seen a few cases in the past where LateInitialize is done cause of
the init return value being set to do so for no real reason, I thought I
should try to avoid that by ensuring LateInitialize isn't ever called
without overriding.
This fixes a ton of machine's LateInitialize not calling parent
(mechpad, door buttons, message monitor, a lot of tram machines,
abductor console, holodeck computer & disposal bin), avoiding having to
set itself up to be connected to power. If they were intended to not
connect to power, they should be using ``NO_POWER_USE`` instead.
Also removes a ton of returns to LateInit when it's already getting it
from parent regardless (many cases of that in machine code).
## Why It's Good For The Game
I think this is better for coding standard reasons as well as just
making sure we're not calling this proc on things that does absolutely
nothing with them. A machine not using power can be seen evidently not
using power with ``NO_POWER_USE``, not so much if it's LateInitialize
not calling parent.
## Changelog
🆑
fix: Mech pads, door buttons, message monitors, tram machines, abductor
consoles & holodeck computers now use power.

* Fix table top deconstruction (#82508)
## About The Pull Request
Edited: updated changelog, read comments for changes in implementation
details
So previously, tables would let you use a wrench to fully deconstruct
them, or a screwdriver to take off only their top.
This, however, broke in two different ways in #82280, when their
deconstruction logic got changed.
First off, deconstructed tables would only drop the materials for their
top and not their frame.
For this, the primary culprit seems to be on line 307:
c34d56a45b/code/game/objects/structures/tables_racks.dm (L300-L307)
Where `new framestack(target_turf, framestackamount)` accidentally got
an extra indent, and ended up in the less common half of the if-else
chain.
Just moving this outside of the if-else chain again fixes it.
Secondly, tables had their own special deconstruction logic, which got
'standardized'.
Issue. This was special to accommodate for having two different
deconstruction logics: full or top only.
With `deconstruct(...)` no longer being overridable, I feel it's awkward
to attempt to proxy that information to the new `atom_deconstruct(...)`
So we introduce a new method, `deconstruct_top`, for the screwdriver to
use, which handles deconstructing only the top.
```dm
/obj/structure/table/proc/deconstruct_top()
var/obj/table_frame = new frame(loc)
if(obj_flags & NO_DECONSTRUCTION)
table_frame.obj_flags |= NO_DECONSTRUCTION
else // Mimic deconstruction logic, only drop our materials without NO_DECONSTRUCTION
var/turf/target_turf = get_turf(src)
drop_top_mats(target_turf)
qdel(src)
```
Mimicking the `NO_DECONSTRUCTION` logic of normal deconstruction, and
copying over the flag onto its frames if need be.
This fixes screwdriver deconstruction.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Fixes#82503.
We can now deconstruct the table top separately again, AND get the right
materials back too.
## Changelog
🆑 00-Steven, SyncIt21
fix: Wrench table deconstruction gives the right materials again.
fix: Screwdriver table deconstruction only deconstructs the top again.

* Monkeys now use height offset (and monkey tail works) (#81598)
This PR adds the ability for monkeys to wear any jumpsuit in the game,
and adds support for them to wear things like coats, gloves, and shoes
(though this cannot be obtained in-game and is solely achieved through
admins, which I also improved a bit upon by adding a defined bitfield
for no equip flags).
This reverts a lot of changes from
https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/pull/73325 - We no longer check
height from limbs and such to bring sprites down, instead monkeys now
work more similarly to humans, so the entire PR was made irrelevant, and
I didn't really want to leave around dead code for the sake of having a
human with longer legs.
I've now also added support for Dwarfism, which makes monkeys look even
smaller. Very minor change but at least now the mutation doesn't feel
like it does literally nothing to monkeys (since they can already walk
over tables).
Here's a few examples of how it can appear in game (purely for
demonstration, as it is currently intentionally made impossible to
obtain in-game, though if someone wants to change that post-this PR now
that support is added, feel free):
Tails have been broken for a while now, the only reason you see them
in-game is because they are baked into the monkey sprites. This fixes
that, which means humans can now get monkey tails implanted into them
(hell yeah) and monkeys can have their tails removed (also hell yeah)
* Gets [weird] with (spies) by adding protect and deuteragonist-flavored objectives. (#82447)
## About The Pull Request
What are their goals? Why are they doing this? gets weird with Spy
objectives - namely by adding a lot more ways spies might be asked to
affect various targets around the station.
the first of these is by several flavors of Protecting targets (these do
NOT print a success at roundend in keeping with Spy design:)
- Protect (get a humanoid target off alive)
- Protect Nonhuman (get an entity off alive)
- Jailbreak (make sure a humanoid target escapes free)
- Detain (make sure a humanoid target gets taken out arrested)
the second of this is by a new escape condition:
- Exile (get off-station or off the Z-level by the end of the shift -
sometimes it's not just pods, you need to fuck off to space to win.)
the third is through a massive increase in the number of possible:
- objective templates
- departments to target (Command + Service added)
- specific locations to target
- general classes of objects to target (medicines, floor tiles, critical
infrastructure, etc.)
- efforts to target (such as meals, mechs, public supplies)
- ways to leave (you can be asked to abscond from the scene of your
crimes?)
## Why It's Good For The Game
More goofy and weird prompts to do more interesting things with Spies.
One thing I think we're sorely missing in our lineup is antagonists that
can act a bit more as deuteragonists - very possibly helping the crew
under certain conditions and frustrating the Hell out of them in others.
Since there's no way to check their objectives, and they get their
gear/progression through stealing shit, they're still very much an
antagonist and exist under the suspicion of doing bad... but, just going
by their objectives, introducing more varied (and in some cases even
benign) goals for them creates suggestions pointing to a lot more varied
and interesting stories if people choose to run with it.
* Adds anosmia quirk (#82206)
## About The Pull Request
Adds anosmia quirk. Anosmia, also known as smell blindness, is the loss
of the ability to detect one or more smells.
I tried to find all smells action and (most likely) update all of them,
unfortunately I can't change descriptions for this quirk.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Some characters will be able to not feel smells
That affect:
* Gases feelings and alerts (CO2, Plasma, miasm) - you don't feel them
* Bakery and cooking
* Changeling ability to feel other changelings by smell
* Some unimportant spans
* Explosions Part I - Directional Explosions (#82429)
## About The Pull Request
Adds the ability for explosions to be directional. This is achieved by
adding an angle check to `prepare_explosion_turfs()` to drop any turfs
outside the cone of the explosion. If the arc covers a full 360 degrees,
as is the default, it will accept all the turfs without performing the
angle check.
Uses this functionality to rework both rocket launcher backblast and X4
explosions. Rocket launcher backblast has been changed from a shotgun of
indendiary bullets to a directional explosion of similar length. X4 now
uses a directional explosion to "ensure user safety".
Apparently the old method of moving the explosion one tile away didn't
even work, as it blew up `target` before trying to check its density for
the directional behaviour.
https://youtu.be/Mzdt7d7Le2Y
## Why It's Good For The Game
Directional explosions - Useful functionality for a range of potential
use cases, which can be implemented with minimal extra processing cost
(Worst case scenario being very large directional explosions)
Backblast - Looks way cooler than a bunch of projectiles, and should be
significantly more functional in high-lag situations where projectile
code tends to get fucky
X4 - More predictable for players wanting to use it as a breaching
charge, you can actually stand near the charge and not have to worry
about being hoist upon your own petard.
## Changelog
🆑
add: Added support for directional explosions.
add: Rocket launcher backblast is now 271% more explosive, check your
six for friendlies!
add: X4 charges now explode in a cone away from the user when placed on
a sufficiently solid object.
fix: X4 charges will now behave correctly when placed on dense atoms

* Fixes spurious runtime on Icemoon caused by turf calling unimplemented LateInitialize() (#82572)
## About The Pull Request

happening,

`/turf/open/openspace/icemoon/` can be changed to
`/turf/open/misc/asteroid/snow/icemoon/do_not_chasm` before
`Initialize()` returns, which resulted in it `INITIALIZE_HINT_LATELOAD`
getting returned on a turf that does not have an implementation of that
proc.

* General maintenance for chem master (#82002)
**1. Qol**
- Adds screen tips & examines for screwdriver, wrench, crowbar & beaker
insertion, removal & replacing actions
- Analyzing reagents is now a client side feature & not a back end mode,
meaning one person can see details of a reagent while the other can
print stuff and do other operations so it's a non blocking operation.
This also means 2 players can see information of 2 different reagents in
their own screens, With that the overlay for analysis mode has been
removed
- You cannot do any tool acts on machines while printing. Balloon alerts
will be displayed warning you of that.
- The preferred container for the master reagent in the beaker is now
showed in both condiment & chem master. It can be enabled/disabled via a
CheckBox
**2. Code Improvements**
- Removed defines like `TARGET_BEAKER` , `TARGET_BEAKER` etc. ther
functionality is implemented as params in the `transfer_reagent()` proc
directly
- Removed all variables relating to analyzing reagents like
`reagent_analysis_mode`, `has_container_suggestion` etc. all memory
savings
- `printable_containers` now stores static values that can be shared
across many chem masters
- Updates only overlays and not the whole icon during operations for
efficiency
**3. Fixes**
- You can hit the chem master with the screwdriver, wrench, crowbar &
beaker when in combat mode
- You cannot insert hologram items into the chem master
- Deconstructing a condiment master will give you the circuit board
already pre-programmed with that option selected so you don't need to
use a screwdriver to re program it
- `printing_amount` is now the maximum number of containers that can be
printed at a time. Presently this number with upgraded parts would print
out empty containers especially for patches. This is because
`volume_per_item` does not take into consideration this var. Also this
var would not give control to the player on exactly how many containers
to print as whatever amount the player entered would be multiplied with
this value producing a lot of waste & worse empty containers. Now this
var determines exactly how many containers you can print and is imposed
on the client side UI as well
**4. Refactors (UI performance)**
- Beaker data is compressed into a single entity & sent to the UI. This
is set to null if no beaker is loaded thus saving data sent
- Reuses Beaker props from chem synthesizer to reduce code
- reagent REF replaced with direct type converted to text and later
converted with `text2path()` cause its much faster
🆑
qol: Adds screen tips & examines for screwdriver, wrench, crowbar &
beaker insertion, removal & replacing actions
qol: Analyzing reagents no longer blocks other players from doing other
operations. Multiple players can analyze different reagents on the same
machine
qol: You cannot do any tool acts on the machine while printing to
prevent any side effects.
qol: The preferred container for the master reagent in the beaker is now
showed in both condiment & chem master. The feature can be
enabled/disabled via a check box
code: removed defines for reagent transfer, vars for reagent analyzis to
save memory. Autodoc for other vars & procs
fix: You can hit the chem master with tools like screwdriver, crowbar,
wrench & beaker in combat mode
fix: You cannot insert hologram items into the chem master
fix: Deconstructing a condiment master will give you the circuit board
already pre-programmed with that option
fix: You now print the exact amount of containers requested even with
upgraded parts without creating empty containers. Max printable
containers is 13 with tier 4 parts able to print 50 containers.
refactor: Optimized client side UI code & chem master as a whole.

* Wraps `lowertext()` to ensure proper stringification. (#82442)
Fixes#82440
This PR just creates a new macro, `LOWER_TEXT()` (yes the irony is not
lost on me) to wrap around all calls of `lowertext()` and ensure that
whatever we input into that proc will be stringified using the `"[]"`
(or `tostring()` for the nerds) operator. very simple.
I also added a linter to enforce this (and prevent all forms of
regression) because I think that machines should do the menial work and
we shouldn't expect maintainers to remember this, let me know if you
disagree. if there is a time when it should be opted out for some
reason, the linter does respect it if you wrap your input with the
`UNLINT()` function.

* Cleans up the SS13_base lua file and adds a new lua file for easily handling multiple signals on different objects. (#82458)
## About The Pull Request
Cleaned up the SS13.register_signal and SS13.unregister_signal, removing
the weird list shifting.
Also adds a new lua file that can be included for the use of registering
different signals on various datums and being able to clear them all in
1 function.
Removed the make_easy_clear_function option when registering a signal
via lua because I don't think it's used by anyone and it lacks any sort
of versatility. Users can just create their own function for clearing
signals from a datum.
Also updates the documentation for HARDDELETES.md as
COMSIG_PARENT_QDELETING was renamed to COMSIG_QDELETING
## Why It's Good For The Game
New handler file makes registering signals in batches a lot easier if
you want to clear them in one go without clearing unrelated callbacks on
the same datum. The list shifting in SS13.register_signal had pretty
significant performance problems, so removing that will make registering
and unregistering signals faster.

* Standardizes object deconstruction throughout the codebase. (#82280)
When it comes to deconstructing an object we have `proc/deconstruct()` &
`NO_DECONSTRUCT`
Lets talk about the flag first.
**Problems with `NO_DECONSTRUCTION`**
I know what the comment says on what it should do
b5593bc693/code/__DEFINES/obj_flags.dm (L18)
But everywhere people have decided to give their own meaning/definition
to this flag. Here are some examples on how this flag is used
**1. Make the object just disappear(not drop anything) when
deconstructed**
This is by far the largest use case everywhere. If an object is
deconstructed(either via tools or smashed apart) then if it has this
flag it should not drop any of its contents but just disappear. You have
seen this code pattern used everywhere
b5593bc693/code/game/machinery/constructable_frame.dm (L26-L31)
This behaviour is then leveraged by 2 important components.
When an object is frozen, if it is deconstructed it should just
disappear without leaving any traces behind
b5593bc693/code/datums/elements/frozen.dm (L66-L67)
By hologram objects. Obviously if you destroy an hologram nothing real
should drop out
b5593bc693/code/modules/holodeck/computer.dm (L301-L304)
And there are other use cases as well but we won't go into them as they
aren't as significant as these.
**2. To stop an object from being wrenched ??**
Yeah this one is weird. Like why? I understand in some instances (chair,
table, rack etc) a wrench can be used to deconstruct a object so using
the flag there to stop it from happening makes sense but why can't we
even anchor an object just because of this flag?
b5593bc693/code/game/objects/objs.dm (L368-L369)
This is one of those instances where somebody just decided this
behaviour for their own convenience just like the above example with no
explanation as to why
**3. To stop using tools to deconstruct the object**
This was the original intent of the flag but it is enforced in few
places far & between. One example is when deconstructing the a machine
via crowbar.
b5593bc693/code/game/machinery/_machinery.dm (L811)
But machines are a special dual use case for this flag. Because if you
look at its deconstruct proc the flag also prevents the machine from
spawning a frame.
b5593bc693/code/game/machinery/_machinery.dm (L820-L822)
How can 1 flag serve 2 purposes within the same type?
**4. Simply forget to check for this flag altogether**
Yup if you find this flag not doing its job for some objects don't be
surprised. People & sometimes even maintainers just forget that it even
exists
b5593bc693/code/game/objects/items/piggy_bank.dm (L66-L67)
**Solution**
These are the main examples i found. As you can see the same flag can
perform 2 different functions within the same type and do something else
in a different object & in some instances don't even work cause people
just forget, etc.
In order to bring consistency to this flag we need to move it to the
atom level where it means the same thing everywhere. Where in the atom
you may ask? .Well, I'll just post what MrMelbert said in
https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/pull/81656#discussion_r1503086862
> ...Ideally the .deconstruct call would handle NO_DECONSTRUCTION
handling as it wants,
Yup that's the ideal case now. This flag is checked directly in
`deconstruct()`. Now like i said we want to give a universal definition
to this flag and as you have seen from my examples it is used in 3 cases
1) Make an object disappear(doesn't dropping anything) when
deconstructed
2) Stop it from being wrenched
3) Stop it from being deconstructed via tools
We can't enforce points 2 & 3 inside `deconstruct()` which leaves us
with only case 1) i.e. make the object disappear. And that's what i have
done. Therefore after more than a decade or since this flag got
introduced `NO_DECONSTRUCT` now has a new definition as of 2024
_"Make an object disappear(don't dropping anything) when deconstructed
either via tools or forcefully smashed apart"_
Now i very well understand this will open up bugs in places where cases
2 & 3 are required but its worth it. In fact they could even be qol
changes for all we know so who knows it might even benefit us but for
now we need to give a universal definition to this flag to bring some
consistency & that's what this PR does.
**Problem with deconstruct()**
This proc actually sends out a signal which is currently used by the
material container but could be used by other objects later on.
3e84c3e6da/code/game/objects/obj_defense.dm (L160)
So objects that override this proc should call its parent. Sadly that
isn't the case in many instances like such
3e84c3e6da/code/game/machinery/deployable.dm (L20-L23)
Instead of `return ..()` which would delete the object & send the signal
it deletes the object directly thus the signal never gets sent.
**Solution**
Make this proc non overridable. For objects to add their own custom
deconstruction behaviour a new proc has been introduced
`atom_deconstruct()` Subtypes should now override this proc to handle
object deconstruction.
If objects have certain important stuff inside them (like mobs in
machines for example) they want to drop by handling `NO_DECONSTRUCT`
flag in a more carefully customized way they can do this by overriding
`handle_deconstruct()` which by default delegates to
`atom_deconstruct()` if the `NO_DECONSTRUCT` flag is absent. This proc
will allow you to handle the flag in a more customized way if you ever
need to.
1) I'm goanna post the full comment from MrMelbert
https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/pull/81656#discussion_r1503086862
> ...Ideally the .deconstruct call would handle NO_DECONSTRUCTION
handling as it wants, but there's a shocking lack of consistency around
NO_DECONSTRUCTION, where some objects treat it as "allow deconstruction,
but make it drop no parts" and others simply "disallow deconstruction at
all"
This PR now makes `NO_DECONSTRUCTION` handled by `deconstruct()` & gives
this flag the consistency it deserves. Not to mention as shown in case 4
there are objects that simply forgot to check for this flag. Now it
applies for those missing instances as well.
2) No more copying pasting the most overused code pattern in this code
base history `if(obj_flags & NO_DECONSTRUCTION)`. Just makes code
cleaner everywhere
3) All objects now send the `COMSIG_OBJ_DECONSTRUCT` signal on object
deconstruction which is now available for use should you need it
🆑
refactor: refactors how objects are deconstructed in relation to the
`NO_DECONSTRUCTION` flag. Certain objects & machinery may display
different tool interactions & behaviours when destroyed/deconstructed.
Report these changes if you feel like they are bugs

* New operative reinforcement option: Intelligence Overwatch Agent (#82307)
## About The Pull Request
Introducing a new Nuclear Operative reinforcement option: The Overwatch
Intelligence Agent.
Equipped with multi-hudglasses, they have an advanced camera console,
station alerts, and bodycams of every operative! If something can be
known, they will know about it.
They can also remotely pilot your ship. Finally, everyone can ride in
the Steel Rain without getting stuck on the station!
This role spawns in the formerly unused outpost just north of the nukie
base. With a few shelves of supplies and some tools in the back room,
they can set up their workplace however they like. This also gives them
something to work on while they wait for the operatives to gear up.

As you can see, it's rather cramped and the lights are quite dim in the
backroom. Set it up however you like, this is how I did mine:

Total price? 12 TC per agent. It might get a bit cramped, but you could
buy a second to make sure the first guy doesn't get lonely!
This turned into a 30-commit ugly because the bodycams were originally
meant to be accomplished via a refactoring of the spyglass kit. Big
mistake that made me shelve the project -- until Melbert's simple
bodycam component conveniently did exactly what I needed in a much
simpler way.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Having a "guy in the chair" for your kickass murder operator squad
enables more brainy strategizing, and is thematically sound. Also,
nukies have the opportunity to bring in another player to participate in
the fun!

## About The Pull Request
The CNS Rebooter Implant will now pull you out of stuns and stamcrit,

## Why It's Good For The Game
The CNS Rebooter Implant is a strong candidate for the absolute worst
implant in the game, it caps your stuns at 4 seconds
(which is plenty of time to get murdered) and does nothing to prevent
stamina damage, for something accessible in one of the latest research
nodes and in the nukie uplink it should perform better than it does now.
Besides, the game is in dire need for more tools to keep the stun meta
at bay, and this is a good place to start.
This PR makes it so the rebooter will bail you out stamcrit every 60
seconds, along with giving you a few seconds of immunity to run away or
get a couple of hits in.

* Medipens can't have reagents removed from them anymore. (#82451)
## About The Pull Request
This will be needed for
https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/pull/82449 because this removes
the machine's ability to make infinite chems.
Basically in https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/pull/29139 they
removed medipen's ability to have reagents injected into them, but never
removed the ability to take reagents out.
You could take a syringe, remove all chemicals from a medipen, put the
main ingredient in a medipen refiller, then refill. You could do this
right now on live servers with an epipen for infinite formaldehyde.
This doesn't affect the hypospray.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Removes a way of infinitely making reagents with a medipen refiller and
also removes a dumb mechanic.
You could take all chemicals out of an EHMS autoinjector, which removes
the visual and feedback tell to the target that they've been injected,
and even with 0 chemicals they get the disease anyways.
You could buy medipens as a miner, take the chemicals out, and put them
in a syringe or pill that you can inject yourself instantly with.
You can take otherwise hard-to-get chemicals like fungal TB's 2-use cure
injector, and make 40 cure pills instead.

* Basic mobs now use z-level turnoff instead of simple (#82469)
## About The Pull Request
On one compile of MetaStation, I saw that there's 45 basic mobs on the
station, 256 on lavaland (the number growing from tendrils), and 59 in
all other z levels combined.
While we do expect Lavaland to be visited every round, at least it won't
be running during the times when no one is there, but even more
importantly, space exploration is something not done every round, so we
don't have any reason to waste our resources on AIs that will never be
interacted with.
Simple animals had an easy solution to this:
If no one is on the Z level, their AI turns off
If someone is on the Z level, they are idle unless needed.
The last simple animals that exists right now are bots, megafauna,
geese, gondolas, and some minor ones like mimic, zombie, dark wizard,
soulscythe, etc.
Point is, we're very much nearly done going through all simple animals,
so this code is being wasted just to ensure things like cleanbots won't
work if no one is on the z level, something I doubt happens often, so I
took their code and made it work for basic mobs instead. I could've done
both but I thought it would look very bad, and maybe this is a good
incentivize to get more basic mob conversions.
There's one major change here and it's that we're missing the "Idle"
mode, some basic mobs like the Lavaland village seems to be made with
intent that they'll be running even if players aren't around, so this
sets up a future PR that makes idle AI easier to add, and I want to make
sure those cases are taken into account.
## Why It's Good For The Game
We don't need to always be processing these basic mobs, and sets us in
the future to hopefully also implement idle AIs.
## Changelog
🆑
balance: Basic mob AIs with no mobs on the Z level now stop.

* adds preferences to transhumanist (#82435)
## About The Pull Request
You may remember this, that's because I accidentally deleted it before
while trying to change things. Anyways!
Adds drop-down selections and new options to transhumanist. also fixes a
minor typo
Previously, you could choose your replaced limb by taking prosthetic
limb, setting what you want changed, and then switching to
transhumanist, since they used the same preference previously.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Transhumanist felt strange because it was hypothetically a voluntary
operation, but the augmentation clinic just spun the wheel on what you
got replaced. From a role-playing perspective, being unable to choose is
uninteresting and confusing. Also it always says your limb being was
being replaced with a robotic arm and that annoyed me. Now that you are
able to select your replacement part, I've added two new options, the
robotic voice box, good for a more prominent change then a limb that
will be hidden for most of a round, and flashlight eyes, for when you
are truly committed to being rushed directly to robotics seeing the
bright future ahead of humanity!
## Changelog

eyes

* Watcher wreaths; Normal and Icewing varieties (#82457)
Adds Watcher Wreaths. An item that makes it look like you have a
slightly floating thorn crown that you can make from some of their
material parts (and the icewing crusher trophy for the icewing variant).
The wreath has emissives. They don't do anything mechanically, they're
just for show.



I really like the whole thing with turning lavaland monsters into
trophies and cosmetics. Going down and coming back up looking like
someone who just crawled through a horror movie and took some souvenirs
is great. Stuff like the trophy accessories, bone and drake armor and
many of the various lavaland items have this quality, and it always
amuses me when a tech sees a dressed up miner and just goes 'holy shit,
where did you get that'?
Drip is the ultimate reward for playing miner. Nobody can tell me
otherwise. this is the endgame every miner craves. And I crave a goddamn
crown made from the broken remains of my enemies.

external js file, but if you do, byond won't even let you know its a
problem until the servers crash and you have to run `bin/clean` just to
unbork your entire repo
This reimplements the changes from #82473 without:
- moving the byond helper functions externally
- causing a tooltip render issue in panel

* Final Objective: Battle Royale (#82258)
## About The Pull Request
Adds a new final objective option with a classic premise; the forced
battle to the death.
The concept is that the Syndicate will provide you with an implanter
tool you can use on an arbitrary number of crew members. Once you have
at least 6 (though there is no ceiling) you can activate the implants to
start the Battle Royale and broadcast the perspectives of everyone you
implanted live to the entertainment monitor.
After activation these implants cause you to explode upon death. If at
the end of 10 minutes, more than one person remains unexploded then all
of the remaining implants will detonate simultaneously.
Additionally, one of the station's departments (Medbay, Cargo, Science,
or Engineering) will be chosen as the arena. If after 5 minutes pass
you're not within that department (or if you leave it after that time
has passed) then you will be killed.
The Syndicate plan on both using the recorded footage to study
Nanotrasen technology, and also to sell it as an underground blood
sport, and so have employed a pirate broadcasting station to provide
colour commentary.
The implantation is silent, however it requires you and your target to
be adjacent and stood still for one and a half seconds.
Once implanted, it will occasionally itch and eventually signal to the
implantee that something is up, so once you start implanting someone
you're on a soft timer until you are given away. You can also implant
yourself if you want to do that for some reason.
Removing an implant from someone has a 70% chance of setting it off
instantly, but it _is_ possible. If the implant is exposed to EMP, this
value is randomised between 0 and 100%. You could also try doing surgery
while the patient is wearing a bomb suit or something, that puzzle is
for you to solve and I'm not going to tell you the answers. I'm sure
you'll think of ones I haven't.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Adds a somewhat more down-to-earth but still hopefully exciting and
threatening option which should let people mess around with the sandbox.
The mutual death element provides some roleplaying prompts; nothing
actually _forces_ you to fight apart from fear of death and it may be
possible to find other ways to survive, or perform some kind of
solidarity behaviour with your fellow contestants. Maybe you'll try that
but one of your fellow contestants just wants to be the last survivor
anyway. Maybe you'll pretend you're setting up some kind of mutual
survivorship thing in order to make sure you're the sole survivor.
Gives some people to watch on the bar TV channel.
The crew apparently love playing Deathmatch while dead so we might as
well enable doing it while alive.
Also I'm going to follow this up with a separate PR to remove the Space
Dragon objective and it felt like it'd be a good idea to do one out one
in
## Changelog
🆑
add: Adds a new Final Objective where you force your fellow crew to
fight to the death on pain of... death.

Admin verified connections now cache all verified connections for all

Sync with the db now happens at admin load time, not at round end. (this
was causing annoyances because servers with long rounds could override

written by a server with a shorter round)

* Moves lua off of the timer subsystem and onto its own internal scheduler. (#82131)
## About The Pull Request
Lua uses the timer subsystem, which can end up holding the entire timer
subsystem if lua is creating a lot of timers.
The solution to this is to use an internal scheduler instead so that the
load gets placed onto the lua subsystem.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Performance improvement when using lua scripts.
## Changelog

* Add compile option for compiling in `MAP_TEST` mode, which disables common annoyances when testing new maps (#81697)
## About The Pull Request
Adds `MAP_TEST` compile flag.
This compile flag blocks common things which make it difficult to test a
map.
Things this applies to:
- Rats no longer spawn.
- Rat spawning will (obviously) break up the powernet, which is
INCREDIBLY annoying when trying to test if all the rooms of the station
are wired correctly (or testing which rooms lose power first, etc)
- Light tubes no longer break on initialize.
- Random light breakages can easily cause mappers to accidentally over
light a room.
- Roundstart command report is not printed.
- Might be a personal preference, but it's kinda annoying to hear the
alert over and over again.
- Random events do not trigger.
- Some events such as gravity generator outage can trigger with 0
population.
- Random camera breakage event can cause over-placement of cameras.
- Other stuff tends to just get in the way.
- Station traits do not trigger.
- Probably the biggest annoyance. Many traits modify the map in some way
which disrupts testing.
- Roundstart landmarks don't self deletes.
- Allows mappers to use sdql to find them.
- Mapping verbs start enabled.
Obviously more things can be added if they come up.

* Adding a blood brother via the team panel sets it up correctly (#81799)
## About The Pull Request
In a recent round, it was noticed that it's kind of annoying and fiddly
for an admin to add someone to a blood brother team (for instance, if
they had to recreate someone's mob to fix a different issue).
Now if you add someone to a blood brother team via the teams panel, it
will set them up as a blood brother properly.
It's probably in the future worth examining this behaviour for other
team antags as well.
I also added a link to the Team Panel to the Antag Panel because I had a
skill issue and kept forgetting how to access it.
Finally, the conversion logging looked all kinds of fucked, so I fixed
it. I will be honest: I don't know what that list does but the arguments
it was recording were both wrong and didn't make any sense.
## Why It's Good For The Game

Using this panel you can now add sapient Ian to a blood brother team.

* Refactors fancy type generation (#81259)
## About The Pull Request
[Refactors fancy type
generation](3f218ac7b7)
Ok so we have this proc that generates concatenated names for types so
admins have a nice list to sort through.
The trouble is this is done by, for each type, iterating all possible
replacements, and seeing which ones apply (with expensive string
operations)
A clean run of this applied to all datums takes about 3.5 seconds on my
pc.
This sucks.
Ok so can we do better. Well, yes, pretty easily.
Rather then, for each potential type, iterating all the options, let's
build a zebra typecache (a lookup list of type -> string to use), and
use that.
Then we can use a list of replacement -> the bit to tear out to figure
out what to remove.
This works quite well. It does mean that we're doing it based off the
type tree and not type paths, so if we didn't have a replacement for
like, mob, it'd look weird, but we don't have cases like that so it's
fine.
Or well we sorta did, didn't have anything for atom movables or areas,
but I fixed that so sall good.
Anyway, we only need to do this work once. It takes about 0.3 seconds on
my machine, so we can cache it.
Just this on its own would technically slow init, since we have a some
code that's running this proc off static, but we can just not, that's
fine (technically saves init time too since we don't have to burn 0.1
seconds on it anymore).
This brings the cost of generating this list for all datums from 3
seconds to 0.16, assuming we have the static pre generated.
We could in theory pre-generate just like, all the strings?
But I don't think the cached cost is high enough for that to be a real
problem. IDK open to other thoughts
Oh also I had to reorder the strings in that list, cause
zebra_typecacheof has reverse priority. s life
[Updates stat tracking macro to work at world
start](1fbfb701a1)
It for some reason doesn't actually get anything this early, but now at

* Newspapers now use TGUI (#80991)
## About The Pull Request
Newspapers work as a static newscaster that is not affected by things
like D-notices and changing wanted issues after its been printed. It
doesn't store comments or get any updates after its been printed.
You can also scribble on the paper to leave notes on a specific page,
which is a feature I have never seen in my life but it is still here I
guess.
Minor things I've added:
- Sound effect when printing the newspaper in the first place
- 2 second do-after when scribbling just for some player feedback and
consistency
- Balloon alerts
- Context tips for scribbling and burning
I also fixed an issue with wanted issues on newscasters when there isn't
an image.
As a minor note, I replaced the instances of ``content`` in Buttons I
saw in newscaster's UI because it's marked as deprecated.

* split area.contained_turfs up by zlevel, make init 10 seconds faster (#80941)
## About The Pull Request
Situation: areas have a list of all turfs in their area.
Problem: `/area/space` is an area and has a 6 to 7 digit count of turfs
that has to be traversed for every turf we need to remove from it. This
can take multiple byond ticks just to preform this action for a single
space rune
Solution: split the list by zlevel, and only search the right zlevel
list when removing turfs from areas.
replaces `area.get_contained_turfs()` with a few new procs:
* `get_highest_zlevel()` - returns the highest zlevel the area contains
turfs in. useful for use with `get_turfs_by_zlevel`
* `get_turfs_by_zlevel(zlevel)` - returns a list of turfs in the area in
a given zlevel. Useful for code that only cares about a specific zlevel
or changes behavior based on zlevel like lighting init.
* `get_turfs_from_all_zlevels()` - the replacement for
`get_contained_turfs()`, renamed as such so anybody copying/cargo
culting code gets a hint that a zlevel specific version might exist.
Still used in for loops that type checked so byond would do that all at
once
* `get_zlevel_turf_lists()` - returns the area's zlevel lists of lists
but only for non-empty zlevels. very useful for for loops.
The area contents unit test has been rewritten to ensure any improper
data triggers failures or runtimes by not having it use the helpers
above (some of which ensure a list is always returned) and access the
lists directly.

* eeyes
* Update area_spawn_subsystem.dm
* Unshits turf contain code slightly (#81023)
Literally just implements my reviews from #80941
I am frankly a smidge pissed that the pr was merged without them being
handled. No code is worth merging past known issues, and if the author
is just gonna dip then that's life.
I don't like privileging mso on stuff like this, especially because
frankly I'm kinda mad at him rn but also because when a pr is made the
onus on finishing it falls to the person who made it.
Should not need to clean up after someone as a maintainer, and shouldn't
normalize doing it. I'm not like mad at zypher directly mind he offered
to do this too, just the idea he was espousing here.

* Macro Optimizes Map Saving (100x) DO NOT CHURN STRINGS Edition (#80845)
## About The Pull Request
Yello!
This one is reasonably quick, tho I did some fixes too
This is the big one, fixes the buildmode tool sometimes locking disabled
for the whole round.
We do this by replacing the static var on buildmode with global var and
a global proc
This keeps a harddel on the buildmode datum from permalocking is_running
to TRUE
Also makes flipping the var BACK if something breaks significantly
easier for admins, so that's nice
Alright, smaller things now
Fixes lists of numbers failing to encoded improperly This was fixed on
shiptest, we failed to actually port their most recent revision
Fixes the shuttle flag not actually working because it used istype
instead of ispath
Changes obj_blacklist to a typecache for optimization's sake
Renames/moves some vars around to prevent weird double typing things
Removes a checktick in key gen, it's just costing more time then it
would save in overtime
Properly handles lists. We were only doing var encoding one layer deep,
need to do it alll the way down
Alright, now the optimizations
This proc is fucking HOT, and it's for really dumb reasons
This is a text gen proc, and it makes the mistake of generating text and
concatinating it with MORE text.
This is HORRIFICALLY EXPENSIVE because byond caches strings (can only be
one of each) and string churn fucks up that caching system something
fierce
Moving from strings to lists of strings we join at the end takes us from
like idk 100 seconds to save bare metastation to like 1.5
This is applied basically everywhere for obvious reasons
While I'm here, storing keys in a flat list and then using find to find
them, then using that index to lookup into another flat list is a bit
silly. Let's just make it an assoc list. Faster lookup, cleaner.
Oh also rather then iterating over all the vars on an object, let's
iterate over just the ones we care about yeah?
Let's see... no sense genning a key we'll never use, and having suffixes
be often non existent is silly just embrace the slight mess.
That's it I think, this takes us from 100 seconds to save metastation to
2.5 seconds to save ALL of metastation (I removed the vars limiter so I
could make sure var saving didn't fuck me up)
## Why It's Good For The Game
Cleans up some issues that we failed to port the fixes for, MASSIVELY
optimizes this (so it can finish in like 5/10 seconds and not 300!) and
ensures admins can always use the thing and don't risk dropping their
pet buildastation to the void.
Worth noting, this tool really should not be used for station mapping
outside an event context. It produces sorta buggy var edits, and WILL
fail to pull over context for shit. Please don't use it as such
Profiles (csv files I promise)

* Optimizes Reftracking (Bigly) (Plus harddel fixes) (#80443)
## About The Pull Request
### Reftracking BS
Alllright so reftracking is slow, really really slow.
That's a problem for me, both because I want it to be fast so I can more
efficiently torture players by running it on live, but also because it
impedes both local and CI runs.
So I've set out to micro optimize the DoSearchVar proc, one of the
hottest in the game.
I've done this in a few different ways.
#### The simple shit
Removing redundant proc args
Yeeting assoc arg setting (extra cost)
Moving if statements around to prioritize the more common case
Ignoring empty lists.
#### The not simple shit
Throwing our snowflake list checking into the sun
(Background, byond has some special lists that cannot be accessed like
an assoc list, trying to will lead to runtimes)
The way we handle this involves inspecting their ref string, and it eats
a LOT of time.
Faster then to mark all the lists we know are special by var name, and
then use try/catch to detect and silence anything that sneaks through
(this is on the order of like 1/3 per run, kinda curious what they are
tbh)
Thanks to MSO for the idea for this btw.
Removes the vars and logic that tied ref searching to clients.
It's not how this code is used, and it slows everything else down for
really no reason
Added support for handing in a known "hanging reference" count, and then
searching for that.
This lets us early exit the ref search if we find everything we were
looking for, which is REALLY powerful, and why I asked for refcount() in
the first place.

## Why It's Good For The Game
All this combined speeds up refsearching massively, on the order of
hundreds of seconds, and makes it far less time consuming for both CI
and running on live.
I'll be bullying some servers semi soon, want to see what I can cut out.

Adds a Debug command to stop all weather. (#80848)
Atomizing out of #78524 as a result of that PR being too big and this
was quite easy to do.
This adds a debug (admin) command that allows you to stop all weather
effects that are going on across the map in a given instance. This is
useful for when you are testing something on lavaland and need the storm
to stop, or if you otherwise had some other kind of weather effect
interfering with testing something. It's worth noting this directly
calls end() on the active weather effect, meaning that for more
complicated weather that may have different side effects, it may need
some extra finess, but as of current writing no weather does anything
interesting in their wind_down() procs.
God weather is so annoying while testing lavaland, plus this is just
straight admin and testing tooling so there's no harm.
🆑
admin: Added a new admin verb that ends all active weather within the
weather subsystem.

* Map export admin verb/buildmode (#80326)
## About The Pull Request
The base for the PR was taken from
https://github.com/shiptest-ss13/Shiptest/pull/206 and thank them for
that.
The point of this verb is to save pieces of the map to your computer for
further use. It's not that necessary, but rarely, it can be useful.

* PDA update (Messenger works while dead, Microwave works, etc). (#80069)
This is an update that touches many more things all at once (compared to
my other PRs) meant to make PDAs in general feel more consistent and not
take away from one of the experiences we want to encourage: interaction
between players.
1. Replaced all checks of a 'pda' with a 'modular pc'. This means
technically (though not done in-game currently) other modpcs can hold an
uplink, and microwaves can charge laptops.
2. Speaking of microwave, they now don't break and require
deconstruction if the cell is removed mid-charge.
3. When a Mod PC is out of power, it will now allow the Messenger to
work (which now also doesn't consume any additional power), if the app
exists on the PC. Here's a video demonstration
https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/assets/53777086/7ae12f81-a271-49b8-95fa-2ba54d2e2d1f
4. Flashlights can't be turned on while the cell is dead
5. I replaced a bunch of program vars with ``program_flags`` and renamed
``usage_flags`` to ``can_run_on_flags``.
6. Added a debug modPC that has every app installed by default. Mafia
had some issues in the past that were unknown because Mafia wasn't
preinstalled with any tablet so was never in create & destroy nor in any
other unit test. This was just an easy solution I had, but PDAs should
get more in-depth unit tests in the future for running apps n stuff- I
just wanted to make sure no other apps were broken/harddeling.
Currently when a PDA dies, its only use is to reply to PDA messages sent
to you, since you can still reply to them. Instead of just fixing it and
telling players to cope, I thought it would be nice to allow PDA
Messenger to still work, as it is a vital app.
You can call it some emergency power mode or whatever, I don't really
mind the reason behind why it is this way.
When I made cells used more on PDAs, my main goal was to encourage
upgrading your PDA and/or limiting how many apps you use at once, I did
not want this to hit on players who use it as a form of interaction.
This is the best of both worlds, I think.
The rest of the changes is just for modularity, if some downstream wants
to add tablets, phone computers, or whatever the hell else, they can
still get just as far as PDAs should be able to get to, hopefully.
🆑
add: PDAs with a dead power cell are now limited to using their
Messenger app.
fix: Microwaves now stop charging PDAs if the cell was removed
mid-charge.
fix: Microwaves can now charge laptops.
fix: PDA Flashlights can't be turned on while the PDA is dead.
fix: You can now hold a laptop up to a camera (if it has a notekeeper
app installed) like PDAs already could.

* Color matrix defines for filters and identity (#80320)
This PR converts the procs `color_matrix_identity`,
`color_matrix_lightness` and `color_matrix_contrast` into
defines/macros. Also adds in defines for common color matrix filters.
I don't like how `color_matrix_identity` is a one-line proc with no arg.
Also these help people identify the sort of color matrix filter is being
used.

* Admin server announcement uses new announcement span (#80403)
## About The Pull Request
The current admin announce is just notice span text, which is easily
missed mixed in with all the other white noise of the chat box.
Currently admins have to fill it with linebreaks or manually add their
own spans to increase visibility.
This updates the admin announcement proc to use the new alert box divs,
similar to other announcements, making it more visible.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Admin server-wide announcements are generally things you want the
players to notice

* Refactors Object Possession into a Component (moar modular, less `/mob` vars) (#80160)
## About The Pull Request
We have two verbs that allow any given mob to take control of an object
and move it ephemerally, `/proc/possess()` and `/proc/release()`. These
ones leveraged two vars present on every `/mob`: `name_archive` and
`control_object`. I don't like having vars clog up my VV and this just
injected snowflake behavior in a lot of spots - let's just make it a
component that'll clean everything else up.
This also opens up the ability to have more objects be under mob control
without giving someone verbs that spit out to the blackbox as an admin
verb + logs + message admins but that's a later thing. This just subs in
the behavior in a nice way.
Also, since it's a component, I added a small QoL that we can support
now: A screen alert that allows you to get out of the possession early
without navigating the stat panel for the specific verb. I think it's
neat. You can also trigger the aghost keybind if that's something you
want as well.
Also also, nothing actually ever cleaned up `control_object` by setting
it to null. This means that in the old framework, if a mob got qdelled
during a possession, that would have triggered a hung ref harddel. That
won't happen anymore.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Two less variables taking up crud space in the VSC debugger + view
variables panel. Better behavior injection that is far more reusable.
Component handling this behavior allows for better extensibility of this
function in the future.

## Changelog
🆑
admin: Object Possession has been reworked, please report any potential
bugs.
qol: Object Possession should now throw a screen alert for you to
unpossess the object instead of you having to search the stat-panel for
the "release obj" verb. You can still use the verb but it's a lot nicer
now. Aghosting will also work now.

* Turns the "Admin Permission Elevation Notification" into a macro (#80149)
## About The Pull Request
Turns this boilerplate message into a centralized macro because this
code is important, but not so important that every coder know the nitty
gritty details of it. In case someone wants to add more logging/handling
(or update the message), there's now a central macro to update for all
nine events in which we check.
This shouldn't break anything because it's the exact same thing we were
doing previously and the early return checks are still all there, but it
does work on my machine regardless ✔️

* Reworks `invisimin` variable to a trait (#80121)
## About The Pull Request
This was a variable that existed on the `/mob` level despite only ever
being altered in one place. Perfect to just make a trait since it's all
managed in one spot anyways (and no other code is really reliant on this
flag being flipped, it's just for the code to know to add/remove
invisimin status).
I also tweaked some messages so they could be more consistent, lmk if
that should be changed
## Why It's Good For The Game
Less not-useful stuff to scroll through in View Variables, better
scoping of a variable to an intended location.
