## About The Pull Request
1. Mouse drop now uses `CanReach()` which is more versatile instead of
`Adjacent()` for adjacency checks
2. `CanReach()` & `DirectAccess()` are now part of `atom`. It's been
moved up from `atom/movable`
3. It won't again check for adjacency inside `can_perform_action()`
saving some overhead
4. Removing the nested `if` conditions from code is always a plus

## About The Pull Request
Was told that apparently recent changes have made it possible to grab
and strangle people at a distance with telekinesis... which then
teleports them to you.
Looking into it, it seems to be a missing flag in the following check
preceding pulling living things:
fe7da20ea3/code/_onclick/click_ctrl.dm (L37-L38)
Adding `FORBID_TELEKINESIS_REACH` fixes this.
## Why It's Good For The Game
I recall telekinesis isn't supposed to let you grab people from a
distance.
"Supposed to"s aside, being able to grab and obstruct people from a
distance with no difficulties in doing so is annoying at best and awful
at worst. The strangle teleporting is obviously just plain broken.
## Changelog
🆑
fix: Fixed telekinesis letting you grab people at a distance, and
teleport them to you by strangling them.

## About The Pull Request
This PR was originally meant as a replacement for the Bloody Bastard
blade, but then I stopped existing for 7 months. Now that I'm here
again, I'm finishing the job once and for all.
### **HERETICS VERSUS CULTISTS**
### Heretics
Heretics can now sacrifice cultists, which will give them one of three
gifts: The Cursed Blade, the Crimson Focus, and the Rusted Harvester.
The gifts given are weighted to be spread out equally with each type.
They will also gain one knowledge point.
- The Cursed Blade is a free heretic blade that is more powerful than
the normal heretic blade, including a small block chance. It can also be
used to draw heretic runes off combat mode.
- The Crimson Focus is a necklace that grants focusing and a minor
regeneration effect which also affects nearby heretics, at the cost of
gaining the BLOODY_MESS trait while wearing it. Additionally, it can be
squeezed to heal 50 points of brute/burn damage, injecting yourself with
three to six (separately) units of Eldritch ~~Water~~ Essence and Unholy
Water. Yes, this isn't good.
- The Rusted Harvester is a heretic 'monster' summon. It's a normal
Harvester, but instead of Area Conversion and Forcewall, it has
Aggressive Spread and Rust Construction (Raise Wall). It can delimb, but
only cultists, with a delay. It has an aura of decay, corroding the
environment and withering enemies near it, but it's VERY fragile.
Rusting cultist item dispensers will now cause them to turn into a
Heretic object. Altars turn into small heretic runes, Archives turn into
Codex Cicatrixi, Forges turn into Mawed Crucibles.
Ideally, Heretics would be able to gain an amount of these new powers
and use them to turn the tide against the cultists, amassing their power
and almost forming a sect of their own in turn which sweeps over and
converts the cult.
### Cultists
When a Cultist sacrifices a heretic, two things will happen:
- A new item will be available for creation at one of the dispensers.
- The Heretic will be trapped inside a powerful Haunted Blade.
`/obj/item/melee/cultblade/haunted`
` name = "haunted longsword"`
` desc = "An eerie sword with a blade that is less 'black' than it is
'absolute nothingness'. It glows with furious, restrained green
energy."`
This blade will be stronger across-the-board than a normal cult sword,
and will even allow those who wield it to cast one heretic spell from
their previous path. The only downside? The heretic can also cast one
spell. It's up to the trapped spirit if it wants to help you, or be a
nuisance.
The unlocked items are:
- The Cursed Blade, again. For cultists, it can be used to draw runes
twice as fast as usual, and they can even right-click it to teleport to
safety, just like a heretic!
- The Crimson Focus, again. Cultists are twice as fast at carving spells
into their body, and they gain a 5th spellslot as long as they wear the
amulet. It still causes hemophilia and grants weak regeneration.
- The Proteon Orb. This orb will create a gateway to Nar'sie's own
realm, spawning one Proteon every 15 seconds, which ghosts can possess.
The gateways cannot be placed close to one another.
Originally, they were going to be able to create a Harvester Shell, but
there were some concerns of it being too OP.
The true Bastard sword has been fully deleted. The null rod conversion
has been changed to a Bloody Halberd instead.
I'm considering re-enabling Stun Hand on Heretics, with Mansus Grasp
stats.
### Other
All the items above can be used by both Heretics and Cultists, no matter
how they were first created. Hell, even normal crew can use them! This
is probably not the best idea a lot of the time, though.
There are a lot of other changes in this PR. A loooooot. I will likely
miss some in the changelog, but I'll try to be as thorough as possible.
There's probably also some leftover garbo that I didn't find and clear
out yet.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Cult and Heretics, despite being mortally opposed, have very few
interactions with eachother, especially now that the Blade's gone. The
only thing of note is just the Heretic's unfair complete resistance to
stun hand, which is only marginally better than the alternative. This PR
will reintroduce their animosity, and give both sides a very, very good
reason to fight eachother.
The Cult will gain a sick sword that keeps the heretic in the game, and
unlike with the original implementation, will recieve a cult-wide bonus
in the form of a powerful, well deserved, and fun new item to summon.
The Heretic will gain powerful trinkets and knowledge from the
sacrifices, incentivizing them to become a terrifying cult-hunter. And
if they do succeed in wiping out the cult, they will have quite the
rewards to help with their ascension.
The crew, while mostly unaffected, will have a damn good reason to not
just Side with the heretic, out of fear of what they may become after
the cult is stomped down. They can also use a few of the items here in
an attempt to get one up on either side, as long as they manage to stay
clear of the side-effects.
Let the heretics eradicate the apostates.
Let the cultists root out the heathens.

The haunted longsword creates an aura of darkness (disabled for the
cultist for the image)
Sprites... are not great. Hopefully someone comes by and improves them.

## About The Pull Request
Sister PR to #83439, that needs to be merged before this.
Adds a plethora of new positive mutations to the game!
Mutations now have a variable that directly adds and removes traits
instead of manually doing so for idk
Tripled cryobeam range.
Made the mushroom hallucinogen's code more readable.
- Adrenaline Rush
Trigger your body's adrenaline response, granting you 10 * P units of
pump-up, synaptizine, and determination. After 25 seconds, you crash,
recieving 7 * S units of tiring and dizzying solution. Can be Energized,
Powered, and Synchronized.
- Mending Touch
Transfer injuries from the target to yourself! Heal 35 * P damage,
recieving up to 35 * S damage in turn. Transfers moderate wounds, fire
stacks, and attempts to parallel limb-to-limb damage. Has bonuses for
pacifist players. Can be Energized, Powered, and Synchronized.
- Elastic Arms
Your arms become floppy and you can interact with things as if you were
adjacent to them from one tile further! Does not work through walls or
dense objects, and you become unable to lift huge items, pull large
corpses, and you get chunky fingers.
Split temperature adaptation into three:
- Cold Adaptation
Gain cold immunity, gain ice slip immunity!
- Heat Adaptation
Gain heat and ash storm immunity
- Thermal Adaptation
Resist both cold and heat, but no extra fancies. The sprite is green
now!
Pressure Adapt has a purple sprite.
You can mix the cold mutations with Fiery Sweat to make these new ones:
- Cindikinesis
Instead of summoning snow, you can now summon... ash. Wow. Very cool.
- Pyrokinesis
You can fire fire now! Fires beams of heat that, unlike the temperature
gun, actually ignite on hit. Higher instability cost than its sister
mutation.
The changes have been themed primarily around classic superhero
gimmicks. Genetics feels like a natural spawning point for superheroes,
and its mutations show this via the good ol' 'radiation made me fire eye
lasers' hero backstory. Adding more ways to be a superhero is fun.
Also, added two new speech mutations:
- Trichromatic Larynx
Every word you say is now either red, green, or blue!
- Heckacious Larynx (Trichromatic Larynx x Wacky)
You sound, well. Absolutely ridiculous. Spectacularly silly. Profoundly
wacky. Don't give it to the clown.
Unlocked the Elvis mutation as well.
## Why It's Good For The Game
> Adds a plethora of new positive mutations to the game!
Genetics is in desperate need of new content, all it's had for years is
a slow gutting and removal of the few things it does have. Hulk is,
being real, stupid, dumb, stagnated, and overpowered, but it's been
begrudgingly accepted because genetics is quite literally just, nothing
without it. I'm here to add the somethings to genetics and add some more
variety (and no i'm not touching hulk)
> Mutations now have a variable that directly adds and removes traits
instead of manually doing so for every mutation.
Less stupid
> Tripled cryobeam range.
Shit joke mutation is now long-range shit joke mutation!
> Made the mushroom hallucinogen's code more readable.
Slightly OOS because I was going to add color blind mutations but
decided not to creep. This piece o shit code has been hurting my head
for years and now that I've finally understood it I want to make sure
others don't go through that pani.
> - Adrenaline Rush
A quick burst of some mild chemicals at the cost of eventual nausea,
sounds like a fair trade to me! If you're already on the ground, this
isn't going to do anything.
> - Mending Touch
Healing is something that's lacking from the mutations, and this puts a
fun spin on it, making the caster a damage pincushion as they heal and
absorb damage.
> - Elastic Arms
Classic superhero power, very funny, lots of silly and sandbox
potential. Has innate drawbacks because 1. thematic and 2. it's pretty
strong
> Split temperature adaptation into three:
They combine into the same thing it used to be, so don't freak out. This
just adds some separation between the immune types, for things like
themed superheroes.
> - Cold Adaptation
Perhaps mildly concerning, but I think this might be a fun spin on it?
TODO: make hiking boots effect?
> - Heat Adaptation
Nothing to say. It's cool.
> - Thermal Adaptation
Nothing wrong with this mutation so it stays in
> You can mix the cold mutations with Fiery Sweat to make these new
ones:
How can we have frozone and not, uh human torch or something. why are
there no heavy hitter fire superheroes in marvel or dc???
> - Cindikinesis
Can't really summon an equivalent to snow that's actually useful, so
here's this instead. Clown might like it, or maybe the chemist.
> - Pyrokinesis
The ignition effect is fairly weak and mostly a deterrent. I think this
is the most dangerous ranged mutation in the game, which is kinda sad.
> - Trichromatic Larynx
Colors are fun! We have speech mutations that change words but none that
change their color. Though, to be fair, this was mostly added for the
mutation below's combination.
> - Heckacious Larynx (Trichromatic Larynx x Wacky)
I felt that Wacky wasn't nearly wacky enough. It just made your speech
comic sans. That's great and all, but. It's not much? This will be a
truly clownly mutation, the Genetics equivalent of a HONK mech. I made
it a combination mutation specifically to restrain its power level.
> Unlocked the Elvis mutation as well.
Was there a reason to lock this?
## Changelog
🆑
add: Added tons of new mutations to Genetics, alongside some recipes!
add: Thermal Adaptation has been made a combination mutation from the
stronger but narrower Cold and Heat adaptations.
balance: Cryobeams have 9 tile range, and fiery sweat doesn't cause
spread on contact.
image: Added some neat new sprites for the new mutations, and added a

## About The Pull Request
Improved code quality of both so they resemble each other. Some of the
new specs are as follows
1. Moved` COMSIG_CLICK_ALT` & `COMSIG_CLICK_ALT_SECONDARY` up i.e.
before `can_perform_action()` making them pure hooks not bound by any
action checks giving components full control over them
2. Removed range check(`CAN_I_SEE`) & view check(`is_blind()`) out of
the base alt click proc. They now only apply to living mobs and don't
apply to ghosts(ghosts don't get blind & see everything) & revenants
(the range check still applies for revenants though).
This was actually a bug because these 2 checks were only meant to see if
the loot panel could be opened (as stated in
https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/pull/83736#discussion_r1628097941)
but because they are at the top of the proc they also apply to all alt
click actions which is not intended. Also, by moving these checks down
to mob subtype levels some of the snowflake checks like this
7579e0e173/code/_onclick/click_alt.dm (L23)
can be removed. We should not check for subtypes within the parent type
proc but instead have subtypes override their parent procs to implement
custom behaviour
3. Removed redundant signals like` COMSIG_XENO_SLIME_CLICK_ALT` in
favour of just `COMSIG_MOB_ALTCLICKON`
4. While looking for alt click signal overrides I found alt click for
style meter was run timing, that's fixed now
## Changelog
🆑
fix: alt click runtime no more when using style meter
code: improved alt & ctrl click code
/🆑
## About The Pull Request

There's a really long standing tradition in the code (at least 13 years
old) that every mob should, at a base, be attacked in the chest.
However, this can cause some strangeness for mobs that don't have chests
(bots). Basically, what we do is we override this message so that bots
don't get hit in the chest, because this proc will always require a zone
input (and default input is the chest (and disentangling that will take
more time that what I can afford)) so let's just hide the message to the
user.
this is also a nice thing to just have in general because a hook into
the strike zone portion of the item attack message can have some pretty
nice effects (e.g. what if you want to add on a descriptor of the head,
or say eye for a creature that only has a eye for a head, or whatever).
## About The Pull Request
The proc `can_perform_action()` now
- Accepts atoms & not just movables without runtiming. Fixes#83985
- It now uses `CanReach()` instead of `Adjacent()`. Allows you to
- Check if the target object is placed on top & not hidden
- Is the object inside another storage atom & such
- Properly checks for recursive locs. Before we were passing the direct
atom & not the type to `recursive_loc_check()` causing this proc to
always return true & giving us false positives. Now this proc has been
adjusted to accept both type paths & real atoms
- Removes `can_perform_turf_action()` since its now obsolete
## Changelog
🆑
fix: no more runtimes when dragging turfs onto other stuff
code: most actions now properly check for recursive locs & better
adjacency
/🆑
## About The Pull Request
Same idea as #82656 but for ctrl click & ctrl shift click cause why not
- Does your signal & `can_perform_action()` checks using
`interaction_flags_click` flags before delegating the event down to
`ctrl_click()` proc.
- The one new change now is that `ctrl_click()` proc is now blocking,
meaning returning `CLICK_ACTION_SUCCESS` or `CLICK_ACTION_BLOCKING` will
stop the object from getting grabbed/pulled. So remember to return these
values if you want to stop the grab action or return `NONE` if you want
to process the click but still want the object to get grabbed as well
## Changelog
🆑
refactor: Ctrl click & Ctrl shift click has been refactored. Please
report bugs on GitHub
/🆑
## About The Pull Request
Mouse drag & drop has been refactored into its own attack chain. The
flowchart below summarizes it

Brief summary of each proc is as follows
**1. `atom/MouseDrop()`**
- It is now non overridable. No subtype should ever touch this proc
because it performs 2 basic checks
a) Measures the time between mouse down & mouse release. If its less
than `LENIENCY_TIME`(0.1 seconds) then the operation is not considered a
drag but a simple click
b) Measures the distance squared between the drag start & end point. If
its less than `LENIENCY_DISTANCE`(16 pixels screen space) then the drag
is considered too small and is discarded
- These 2 sanity checks for drag & drop are applied across all
operations without fail
**2. `atom/base_mouse_drop_handler()`**
- This is where atoms handle mouse drag & drop inside the world. Ideally
it is non overridable in most cases because it also performs 2 checks
- Is the dragged object & the drop target adjacent to the player?.
Screen elements always return true for this case
- Additional checks can be enforced by `can_perform_action()` done only
on the dragged object. It uses the combined flags of
`interaction_flags_mouse_drop` for both the dragged object & drop target
to determine if the operation is feasible.
We do this only on the dragged object because if both the dragged object
& drop target are adjacent to the player then `can_perform_action()`
will return the same results when done on either object so it makes no
difference.
Checks can be bypassed via the `IGNORE_MOUSE_DROP_CHECKS` which is used
by huds & screen elements or in case you want to implement your own
unique checks
**3. `atom/mouse_drop_dragged()`**
- Called on the object that is being dragged, drop target passed here as
well, subtypes do their stuff here
- `COMSIG_MOUSEDROP_ONTO` is sent afterwards. It does not require
subtypes to call their parent proc
**4. `atom/mouse_drop_receive()`**
- Called on the drop target that is receiving the dragged object,
subtypes do their stuff here
- `COMSIG_MOUSEDROPPED_ONTO` is sent afterwards. It does not require
subtypes to call their parent proc
## Why It's Good For The Game
Implements basic sanity checks across all drag & drop operations. Allows
us to reduce code like this
8c8311e624/code/game/machinery/dna_scanner.dm (L144-L145)
Into this
```
if(!iscarbon(target))
return
```
I'm tired of seeing this code pattern `!Adjacent(user) ||
!user.Adjacent(target)` copy pasted all over the place. Let's just write
that at the atom level & be done with it

## About The Pull Request
- Afterattack is a very simple proc now: All it does is this, and all
it's used for is for having a convenient place to put effects an item
does after a successful attack (IE, the attack was not blocked)

- An overwhelming majority of afterattack implementations have been
moved to `interact_with_atom` or the new `ranged_interact_with_atom`
I have manually tested many of the refactored procs but there was 200+
so it's kinda hard
## Why It's Good For The Game
Afterattack is one of the worst parts of the attack chain, as it
simultaneously serves as a way of doing random interactions NOT AT ALL
related to attacks (despite the name) while ALSO serving as the defacto
way to do a ranged interaction with an item
This means careless coders (most of them) may throw stuff in afterattack
without realizing how wide reaching it is, which causes bugs. By making
two well defined, separate procs for handing adjacent vs ranged
interactions, it becomes WAY WAY WAY more easy to develop for.
If you want to do something when you click on something else and you're
adjacent, use `interact_with_atom`
If you want to do something when you click on something else and you're
not adjacent, use 'ranged_interact_with_atom`
This does result in some instances of boilerplate as shown here:

But I think it's acceptable, feel free to oppose if you don't I'm sure
we can think of another solution
~~Additionally it makes it easier to implement swing combat. That's a
bonus I guess~~
## Changelog
🆑 Melbert
refactor: Over 200 item interactions have been refactored to use a
newer, easier-to-use system. Report any oddities with using items on
other objects you may see (such as surgery, reagent containers like cups
and spray bottles, or construction devices), especially using something
at range (such as guns or chisels)
refactor: Item-On-Modsuit interactions have changed slightly. While on
combat mode, you will attempt to "use" the item on the suit instead of
inserting it into the suit's storage. This means being on combat mode
while the suit's panel is open will block you from inserting items
entirely via click (but other methods such as hotkey, clicking on the
storage boxes, and mousedrop will still work).
refactor: The detective's scanner will now be inserted into storage
items if clicked normally, and will scan the storage item if on combat
mode

## About The Pull Request
Allows the AI Core button which snaps their camera to their mob to work

I don't consider this a balance change because there are already a
myriad of ways to get `AI.view_core()` to be called besides the button
(one of them being to simply reconnect), or other ways to bypass like
what I have taken to doing is prepare a camera hotkey at roundstart

## About The Pull Request
Right now parallax is like a quarter of SSinput, which is BAD. It's so
high mostly because of the animates we need to do, but also due to the
cost of setting screen_loc.

This sucks. The default step is to reduce the poll rate of the effect,
but I don't want to do that because it SUCKS. Sooooo how can we
optimize.
Well, if we stop thinking in terms of screen_loc, which is a string
(tree shit) and also unanimatable, and start working in pixel offsets,
this'd be a way cheaper.
We can make that happen by sticking all our parallax layers on one rock
screen object. Then they have relative positions and can be pixel offset
(I have stolen this concept wholesale from Ter)
This works unreasonably well, roughly a 65% cost reduction. S good shit.

While I'm here...
[uses KEEP_TOGETHER to reduce clientside load, makes the flying
animation
better.](52610398e2)
We were individually rendering all like fucking 24 480x480 overlays on
all 5 parallax layers, which means we had to apply our transform to EACH
ONE. This has GOTTA suck shit for clients, so let's... not? Should help.
The existing flying animation makes me depressed. it has some very
visible stutter, and jumps around a lot.
We can deal with the starting stutter by avoiding starting a new
animation on the layer until the old one is finished. This is what was
SUPPOSED to be happening, but because we fired one timer for all the
layers, they'd desync and jump in ugly ways.
This means we need to use one timer per layer, which does induce more
cost then I'd like. IDK how I feel about this to be honest.
I try and reduce ending weirdness by unscaling time at the end, so
different aspects don't slow down at different rates.
Speed on the parallax animation was weird, it'd spike up, then dip down
in flight.
This was because the percieved rate of change from the quad easing was
closer to 2x the existing.
I've handled this by halving the animation time in the loop
Oh also there's no sense calling the update animation proc if we are
coming to a stop, and thus have no follow up animation.
## Changelog
🆑 LemonInTheDark
refactor: I have reworked how parallax and its animations (space travel)
work. Please report any bugs lads!

## About The Pull Request
adds raptors to lavaland. these are creatures that have been created
through countless xenobiological experiments by nanotrasen to breed an
animal that can withstand the harsh conditions of lavaland and aid
miners. theres now a new ranch miners can access bottom right to the
mining base

this ranch starts somewhat empty as most raptors have escaped
containment and are now scattered all across lavaland, u can find them
and return them to ur ranch.
in order to tame a raptor, u first need to prove to it that ur a capable
master. when u try to ride it, a little minigame prompt will pop up

in this game, the bird's icon rapidly changes direction and u have to
quickly click the arrow thats OPPOSITE to the direction its facing
several times before the direction changes. if you fail 3 times itll
knock you off and run away, however if u win it will deem u a suitable
master and listen to your orders.
There's many different breeds of raptors you can find across lavaland,
all with different capabilities:
red raptors: these excel at combat and can be very useful for dealing
with lavaland mobs or defending the node drone
yellow raptors: are very speedy mounts, theyll get u from point A to
point B in record time
green raptors: they are the tankiest type of raptor and are very good
miners. while mounted, they will clear any rock walls in their path
purple raptors: can store items in them. they have a decent storage size
allowing players to carry more items across trips
white raptors: are able to heal other injured raptors. having one in ur
party would be very useful as they can nurse the combat raptors back to
full health when they need it
blue raptors: produce very nutritious milk with healing capabilities.
having 1 or 2 of these back at ur ranch would be very useful
black raptors: by far the rarest breed, its very unlikely that ull be
able to get one of these, but in the case u do, they have the combat
capabilities of the red raptor, speed of the yellow raptor, and
tankiness of the green raptor.
Breeding different colored raptors together can net u an entirely new
colored raptor. each breed has atleast 1 guaranteed combination of
parents that it will result out of.
you will also need to maintain a good friendship bond with ur raptors,
this is done by feeding them, grooming them, and petting them. u can see
the strength of ur bond by SHIFT clicking them. more hearts indicate a
stronger bond

having higher friendship bonds means ur raptors will perform better in
combat, and in the case of blue raptors, they will produce more milk.
Maintaining friendship bonds with baby raptors and keeping them happy
will also encourage them to grow faster
U can also analyze raptors using the new raptor-dex device available at
ur ranch

the inherit modifiers indicate how strong this raptor's offspring will
be. raptors inherit attack and health stats from both their parents,
breeding raptors with higher inherit modifiers means the offspring will
be stronger.
raptors will also inherit some traits from their parents that will
change how they will act around u and around other raptors, some of them
being:
Playful: raptors will play with their masters and tease them
motherly: raptors will care for baby raptors, this will encourage baby
raptors to grow quicker
depressed: means its hard to keep this raptor happy and friendship bonds
will deteriorate faster if not given enough care.
coward: makes them flee combat if severly injured, ditching u to the
wolves
trouble maker: makes them attack other raptors at the ranch. however,
trouble maker raptors will not attack other trouble maker raptors,
instead they will form posses and bully raptors together. it might be a
good idea to isolate them from the other raptors
raptors primarily consume ores. to feed raptors, you need to place ore
into the food troughs at the ranch. they are too civilized to eat ores
off the ground or directly from ur hand, they will only eat it if its in
their trough

## About The Pull Request
Does a audit on all uses of parse_zone, replacing most instances of it
with a new living-level proc that refers to the bodypart in that zone if
it exists.
In other cases, removes parse_zone entirely because the bodypart is
already confirmed to exist, so we just use plaintext_zone.
Also cleans up some single letter vars.
## Why It's Good For The Game
In the doc of ```plaintext_zone```, its said it ```Should be used for
parsing non-instantiated bodyparts```. 99% of the code ignores the
possibility of a bodypart existing, and so uses parse_zone when
plaintext_zone could be accessed instead.
## Changelog
🆑
code: Most instances of parse_zone now refer to the limb's
plaintext_zone var

## About The Pull Request
Get in the gundam shinji!!!
Context: Mech users hold ALT to disable strafe, which would trigger the
lootpanel to come up while committing war crimes (annoying!)
This prevents the panel from appearing and fixes the previous behavior,
meaning you can alt click your own mech to disable strafing.

It also makes toggling strafe a balloon alert with sound. Parties for
all occupants!!

## About The Pull Request
- Deletes `ATTACK_QDELETED`
- May have been necessary in the past but it's pointless now. All it
does is clutter the attack chain. Perish.
- Fixes welders not using fuel on attacking non-mobs
- #65762 "fixed" welders consuming fuel on clicking turfs by adding an
`isliving` check and not an `ismovable` check?
## Changelog

## About The Pull Request
Rewrites how alt click works.

#82533.

<details><summary>More info for devs</summary>
Handy regex used for alt click s&r:
`AltClick\((.*).*\)(\n\t.*\.\.\(\))?`
`click_alt($1)` (yes I am aware this only copies the first arg. there
are no other args!)
### Obj reskins
No reason for obj reskin to check on every single alt click for every
object. It applies to only a few items.
- Moved to obj/item
- Made into signal
- Added screentips
### Ventcrawling
Every single atmospherics machine checked for ventcrawling capability on
alt click despite only 3 objects needing that functionality. This has
been moved down to those individual items.
</details>
## Why It's Good For The Game
For players:
- Alt clicking should work more logically, not causing double actions
like eject disk and open item window
- Added context menus for reskinnable items
- Removed adjacency restriction on loot panel
For devs:
- Makes alt click interactions easier to work with, no more click chain
nonsense and redundant guard clauses.
- OOP hell reduced
- Pascal Case reduced
- Glorious snake case
## Changelog
🆑
add: The lootpanel now works at range.
add: Screentips for reskinnable items.
fix: Alt click interactions have been refactored, which may lead to
unintentional changes to gameplay. Report any issues, please.

## About The Pull Request
This PR adds a health doll to the hud used by basic and simple mobs to
the dexterous basic mob HUD. I'd reckon the only reason it wasn't
initially there in the first place is by mistake.
This also apparently adds the damage borders around the screen as the
mob takes damage, which is a useful gauge for knowing when you're about
to die.

## Why It's Good For The Game
Basic QoL change to provide basic dexterous mobs with the same level of
health info that we provide everything else.

indication like other basic mobs.

## About The Pull Request
No idea why this is all copypaste snowflake code but here we are. Borgs
can now use ranged rightlicks just like anyone else.
I honestly have barely any idea as to what I am doing, does anyone have

## Why It's Good For The Game
Future borg parity with EVERYTHING ELSE. Will make crushers and other
weapons with rightclick functionality work if one decides to add them to
borgos. Even if not, it's good to keep the parity.

The Mob
## About The Pull Request
Fixes#76495
This PR prevents (most) screen elements from running base
`/atom/proc/Click` and `/mob/proc/ClickOn()` when clickend.
(The only exception I found to it was the cursor catcher for scopes.)
Why?
Most, if not everything in `ClickOn` is considered "in world"
interacting. It abides by `incapacitated`, runs `faceAtom`, etc.
This means, currently, you can "interact" with screen elements using in
world elements. For example, TK-ing / pointing a gun at your mood face.
Right now this affects very little, but there is a large potential for
errors. All you have to do is forget a sanity check in `afterattack` and
suddenly you have an item that can affect your screen objects.
The only example I found was the `/item/godstaff`, which can color some
of your screen elements. But there may be more. Like guns.
Note:
Many, many screen elements ALREADY do not fall down into atom click.
They simply don't call parent. Which is totally fine.
I am just ensuring ALL* screen elements do not fall down into atom
click.

fix: Blocks mobs from trying to "physically" interact with some of their
hud elements, such as using Telekinesis or point a gun at your mood

## About The Pull Request
Actions that don't give the user control (so don't give them an action
button) will now no longer give them to ghosts either. Ghosts should see
the same information as the player when observing them. They don't need
to see guardian's protection mode and bileworm's spitting, for example.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Explained in the about the pull request already, ghosts should have the
same information as the player they are orbiting, not see the hidden
actions. It makes it annoying for contributors to have to manually set
every ability meant to not be seen by players to also not be seen by
ghosts.
## Changelog
🆑
fix: Action abilities hidden from players are now not shown to observers
either.

When I made SSpolling, jlsnow gave me his blessing to delete the orbit
polling component [where you orbit something for 20 seconds before it
chooses a ghost from the orbiters]
It's only used in a few places like soulstones replacing
jobbanned/inactive players, etc.
Also upgraded SSpolling; you can now place a little icon on the sides in
the chat message, chat message looks a lot nicer, the alert pic and the
jump target don't have to be the same anymore, and I made it be able to
pre-pick candidates since 90% of the use cases would just want 1
candidate
Also prints to chat who the chosen one was
Also made slime intelligence potions ask the user for a reason, which
will be displayed in the alert poll
