## About The Pull Request
- Fixes#84361
This brings back the round robin method of transferring reagents I
removed in #78884 but in a more miniaturized & light weight form. It
should speed up cpu performance of plumbing as a whole
**The Downside**
The reason i was hesitant about bringing it back is because this
technique can result in **missing reagents**
For example let's say our plumbing pill press has only space for 10u
more of reagents but in the ducts we have say 3 reagents i.e 3u copper,
7u Aluminium, 4u iron(Order of reagents in the ducts is important)
When the pill press makes the request for 10u of reagents from the ducts
we get 3u copper + 7u Aluminium = 10u. **We completely leave out iron**
because the 10u request has been fulfilled.
This happens when the below 2 conditions are met
- When there are a large number(different types) of reagents or large
volume of one type of reagent in the ducts
- When there isn't enough space in the machinery to take in all these
reagents
This is why the plunger was made so you can flush out reagents from
machines and can make space to take in those missing reagents
**The Upside**
You don't get any floating point errors. Also given that this code has
been around for years before i removed it, It should be ok to bring it
back. Assuming players have always been sensible to only create the
exact volume of reagents they need without making excess & quickly push
out these reagents (either through output gate, pill press etc) from the
ducts you should not see any problems. Plus this code is only exclusive
to plumbing so no outside usage
**Other changes**
- Plumbing IV Drip now only accepts reagents i.e. it only has a input
pipe no output pipe just like your output gate & smoke machine. This was
done because it is not an instance of `obj/machinery/plumbing` & so it
won't use the round robin transfer technique leading to again
re-introducing errors in the plumbing system.
Also it makes sense as in we only need it to accept reagents from the
ducts & inject it into the connected mob/whatever. We don't need it to
pump out reagents back into the system
- Output gate still uses the regular "proportional" method of
transferring reagents. This is so if you use a beaker or something to
take reagents out from it, it gives you all reagents without "missing
any"
## Changelog

fix: plumbing machinery should have consistent volumes throughout the
course of its operations
fix: plumbing iv drop now only accepts reagents from ducts but won't put
reagents back into it i.e. it only has a input pipe

## About The Pull Request
The gun code is an absolute mess that seems to have been untouched for
the better part of the decade and finally gave way due to the attack
chain refactor. This PR is the first in my attempts to refactor this
mess by making bayonet attachment a component instead of /obj/item/gun
variables. Followup PRs may or may not be atomic changes or a monolith
due to how horribly the original code is structured.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Gun code is ancient, unmaintained, barely readable and started actively
breaking in the past weeks.

nerfs on station raptors. now raptors will freak out if hit by an energy
gun of any kind, or if they recieve any form of stamina damage (for
example from a baton) and will knock their rider off rendering them
disabled for a few seconds. im open to other suggestions and feedback
## Why It's Good For The Game
i was a bit saddened to learn these are still being brought up station
and some being abused for on-station combat as meatshields. they were
primarily balanced around the lavaland tower defense minigames which
might make them too tanky of a vehicle on station and unfair for whoever
has to deal with them. this pr hopefully restores them to only serve
their original purpose, which was to be super nieche mining tools

There were some tiles and wallframes in lathe designs, while most of
these are already in the crafting menu. Moved all of them into the
crafting menu to avoid confusion, when you can't find some wallframe in

Made the light tile craftable in menu, instead of slap-crafting, and
made the circuit tiles use similar recipe (since they both are emissive
tiles). And the circuit tiles can now be cycled in-hand:

## 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
### Dilemma
So we've been running into a dilemma recently as we move more and more
items over (#84070, #83910)
Some things like modsuits, tables, washing machines, storage items want
to do their tool acts before their item interactions
In the past this was perfectly fine, because it was `tool_act` ->
`attack`, but now it's a problem, because it's `item_interaction` ->
`tool_act` -> `attack`.
Rather than resort to snowflaking, my idea is that we can move tools
back up the chain so deconstruction and other similar effects are
handled first, before anything else like putting the tool onto the
table.
### So why does it require non-combat-mode?
A large amount of tool acts early return if the user's on combat mode to
allow the user to smack the thing instead of using the tool on it. So
I've decided to walk back on what I said like a week ago and make this
standardized behavior.
### Misc
Reintroducing `tool_act` as a proc that exist means that atoms can
easily hook certain interactions that must happen very high in the click
chain, such as doing something that block storage insertion. Moves some
of the behaviors I put on the (admittedly rather hacky) new proc to
that.
(Also cleaned up a bit of lockbox and medbot code)
## Changelog
🆑 Melbert
fix: Fixed modsuit interactions slightly. No longer requires combat mode
to use tools on it, plasma core works as intended as well. (Using combat
mode, however, will make you insert the item)
refactor: Refactored lockboxes
refactor: Refactored medbot skin application
/🆑
## 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
Fixes some interactions with attempting to patch multi-z holes.
1. openspace clicks happen on different z levels, so it's inherently a
*ranged* interaction- it was being ignored due to using the non ranged
signal
2. RCD was lacking the open space click handler,
3. #77540 still exists to a degree, I've refactored the click handler to
use parse_caught_click_modifiers to always grab the tile you're aiming
at rather than going off of whatever item you happened to click on
4. handle_openspace_click was treating the modifiers list as the old
parameters list

## About The Pull Request
As the title says. A standard power cell now only stores 10 KJ and
drains power similar to how it did before the refactor to all power
appliances.
The new standard megacell stock part stores 1 MJ (what cells store right
now). APCs and SMESs have had their power cells replaced with these
megacell stock parts instead. Megacells can only be used in APCs and
SMESs. It shouldn't be possible to use megacells in any typical
appliance.
This shouldn't change anything about how much 'use' you can get out of a
power cell in regular practice. Most should operate the same and you
should still get the same amount of shots out of a laser gun, and we can
look at expanding what can be switched over to megacells, e.g. if we
want mechs to require significantly more power than a typical appliance.
Thanks to Meyhazah for the megacell icon sprites.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Power cell consumption is way too high ever since the power appliance
refactor that converted most things to be in joules. It's a bit
ridiculous for most of our machinery to drain the station's power supply
this early on.
The reason it's like this is because regular appliances (laser guns,
borgs, lights) all have a cell type that is identical to the APC/SMES
cell type. And it means that if we want to provide an easy way to charge
these appliances without making it easy to charge APCs/SMESs through a
power bug exploit, we need to introduce a new cell type to differentiate
between what supplies power and regular appliances that use power. This
is primarily what the megacell stock part does.
This moves us back to what it was originally like before the power
refactor, where recharging power cells wouldn't drain an exorbitant
amount of energy. However, it maintains the goal of the original
refactor which was to prevent people from cheesing power generation to
produce an infinite amount of power, as the power that APCs and SMESs
operate at is drastically different from the power that a regular
appliance uses.
## Changelog
🆑 Watermelon, Mayhazah
balance: Drastically reduces the power consumption and max charge of
power cells
balance: Added a new stock part called the battery, used primarily in
the construction of APCs and SMESs.
add: Suiciding with a cell/battery will shock you and potentially dust
you/shock the people around you if the charge is great enough.

## About The Pull Request
The `/datum/pet_command/protect_owner` behaviour did not have any
validation for if the person who attacked you was yourself.
The three mobs which used this behaviour would sometimes be capable of
seeing you accidentally slap yourself with a burrito and decide that
this meant that you needed to be protected from this hideous and violent
aggressor (yourself), and would then start trying to kill you.
If you had multiple minebots they would then start attacking each other
in a fit of jealous and protective rage, which I think was quite funny
but isn't supposed to be how the game works.

## About The Pull Request
- Complete rewrite of borg omnitool code;
- - Borgs that use omnitools now have a "Omni Toolbox" that holds
whatever tools the Omnitool would cover. The toolbox keeps track of
Omnitool "Arms" in a list, as well as when to upgrade (or downgrade)
tool speed. The toolbox is not seen by the player directly.
- - Omnitool "Arms" will display available tools based on the Omni
Toolbox's contents. Selecting one does not move the tool out of the
toolbox, but instead simply overrides any following clicks with a melee
attack chain of the selected item. This is reminiscent of how borg
apparatus tools work. When selecting a tool, the Omnitool "arm" will
also set its own icon state to match the tool selected.
- - Because all Omnitool "arms" are using the same tools from the same
toolbox, actions done with one can be seen from another. For example,
using the first Omnitool to scan the Silo with the engineer borg's
multitool will update the tool's buffer, and it can be used later, even
if the multitool is selected by the second Omnitool.
- Because we're now using real tools, rather than a single tool item
faking tool usage via tool flags, almost all interactions with tools
should properly carry over.
- Added Cyborg versions of the medical toolset, for use with the Medical
Cyborg omnitool, so that we can finally use the really nice borg-version
medical tool sprites.

## About The Pull Request
So sparks were laying waste to every department that had sparks as a
little pizzazz particle effect, which turned out to be seemingly every
single department, and also just a bunch of random shit we had laying
around. That wasn't really the goal so I've reworked them, for now,
until I'm able to more comprehensively address how we handle things that
are combustible vs things that are actually dangerously flammable, which
we don't differentiate for now.
Sparks now send a signal to whatever thing is touching those sparks.
Right now I've specifically made pools of welding fuel, things made of
plasma, people covered in flammables, and cigarettes respond to this
signal. Sparks that touch objects with reagents in them will heat those
reagents marginally (approximately 40kelvin increase from 300 kelvin
underneath a popped lightbulb). There is also another signal
'HAZARDOUS_SPARKS' but as of this PR it is not used.
If you walk into sparks or get showered by them, the sparks will also
interact with any of your visible equipment (outerwear and held items),
but to reiterate, nothing besides the above stated items have
interactions with sparks... for now...

## About The Pull Request
See changelog for shortlist
1. **Threat changes.** I was a bit unsatisfied with the rate of antag
spawns. These have been increased considerably. The clamped probability
has been increased from 1-10 to 5-15. The probability increases from 5
to 15 as domains are completed. Generally, in a standard round, the
chance of spawning at least one antag should be around ~50% at 7 domains
completed. Emagging a server doubles this rate.
2. **Map changes.** Starfront saloon was a cool idea on paper: A totally
modular map. However, it looked very uninspired and was so much of a
chore on the map loading system that it prompted players to admin help
how long it took, thinking it was broken. I've removed the map. I have
others I want to implement that don't look so bad.
3. **QoL changes**. Ghost observer experience is improved. Previously,
you could click netpods to view their avatar, and now you can click the
hololadder to return. I've included examine text to show this. The
server's examine text will now also give you clues that it's emagged
(ghost only). The examine text on hololadders has also been improved.
4. **Bitrunning antags.** These were designed as temporary, but they
were everything but. Spawning as one would prevent your revival, which
just isn't a good tradeoff for something that's going to get deleted in
a minute. Now, this system uses temp bodies just like CTF, so you can
return once you're dead. (exception: coming station side)
5. **Maps**: Syndicate assault is still one of my favorites, but there's
cheesy exploits like instantly breaking the display case to lock down
the ship, turning on turrets which are EXTRA lethal, etc. I've added
some pistols to the closets and removed some of these exploits.
6. **Cooldown**: Yes, no one seems to upgrade these ever, and it proved
a poor technique to encourage bitrunners to leave their rooms. I had
other plans to encourage this, not included here, so I think lowering
the cooldown time is beneficial. 3min -> 2min
> [!NOTE]
> File diff: removed a map
## Why It's Good For The Game
Closes#83787
General updates and QoL for bitrunning to keep it fresh. I was quite
disappointed with the scaling of threat, and most players haven't even
seen bitrunning antags except when I admin spawn them. These numbers
aren't hard set in my mind, and could be adjusted.
I generally want bitrunning easier to access and more "temporary" which
is in keeping with its design doc.
## Changelog
🆑
fix: Bitrunning made more illegal: Increased the rate at which antags
spawn.
fix: "Temporary" bitrunning antagonists and spawners are made actually
temporary. You will return to your original body after death, just like
CTF.
add: Added more examine text for ghosts to bitrunning equipment.
balance: Server cooldown reduced by 1 minute at base level.
add: As an observer, you can now switch views between station and
virtual domain by clicking the hololadder and netpod respectively.

## About The Pull Request
So my previous PR was to give ashwalker the settler trait so they'd get
some of the benefits of settler (better riding, fishing, and taming) but
it was suggested that Settler be atomized into different traits instead.
I've done that here.
Ashwalkers now get
TRAIT_ROUGHRIDER
TRAIT_BEAST_EMPATHY
TRAIT_EXPERT_FISHER
which will, respectively, make them better riders, better tamers, and
better at fishing. I also made a small change to the riding code that
references riding speed boosts for people with the ROUGHRIDER trait
(would, at the moment, only be ashwalkers and settlers) that gives
ashwalkers the maximum bonus, to represent their primal connection with
the beasts in the area.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Ashwalkers are described in the lore as being denizens of lavaland, the
same as all the other messed up shit down there. This change brings them
in line with that. The improvements to the handling of the settler trait
will also open up avenues for expanding or improving on related systems
## Changelog

## About The Pull Request
Replaces the Particle Acceleration Rifle, or the Beam Marksman Rifle,
with the Event Horizon Anti-Existential Beam Rifle.
In short, it shoots black holes.
It takes five cores to make.
It pretty much kills everything you point it at and their immediate
bystanders as well.
You can do this from the relative safety of a whole four screens away
thanks to it having a scope.
There can only ever be one vortex anomaly made in the round. The recipe,
however, always requires the maximum number of cores that can be made in
a round. If the number goes up for some reason (maybe someone wants to
add more vortex items), so does the total number of cores needed to make
an AEBR.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Firstly; the beam rifle? Awful. Jank code. Bad performance. Ancient
balancing considerations. Just too strong to bring out regularly against
specifically blobs, but completely fucking useless against anyone else.
So I'm hitting all these problems at once. I reduced a 600 line file to
less than 60. I've removed all that bad code. I've also made it
specifically unable to combat blobs at all because singularities send
blobs off to safety.
Secondly; this is maybe the first example of 'more cores = bigger
power'. The rifle was already utterly trash to have around, and I just

base (or possibly the wendigo arena) is removing soul. Please don't kill

## About The Pull Request
Adds some missing variables to instances of get_safe_turf() so they will
only teleport to the given z-level.
Replaces some instances of get_safe_turf() with
get_safe_random_station_turf().
## Why It's Good For The Game
First, the differences between get_safe_turf() and
get_safe_random_station_turf():
### get_safe_turf()
- gets a random safe turf on a z-level (usually any of the staiton
z-levels), not accounting for the /area/
- should be used if you don't care if it spawns on the station or not,
or if you need to specifically teleport to a z-level
- not very expensive performance wise
### get_safe_random_station_turf()
- gets a random safe turf that will always be a station area, ignoring
z-level.
- should be used if you NEED the turf to be on a station's area
- slightly more expensive performance wise than get_safe_turf, but still
very cheap
Some code was using get_safe_turf() when it should've been using
get_safe_random_station_turf(), and some code that should be using
get_safe_turf() were incorrectly using the zlevels arg instead of zlevel
arg (Yes, there is a difference), or didn't include it at all.
All the changes were made to my best judgement. If you're curious about
a change, please ask and I will explain why I did it.

## About The Pull Request
adds the flatpacker, it flatpacks machines
it is unlocked at industrial engineering
the default print time is 4.5 seconds, reduced by the servo tier divided
by 2
matter bins increase material capacity
better servos decrease material cost, and the flatpacker cannot print a
machine if it contains parts that are of a tier larger than the servos
tier

## Why It's Good For The Game
machine construction sucks, this should be more convenient, this does
not replace machine construction at all
compared to machine frames while this is faster and more convenient, it
is significantly more costly in materials, and a better servo is needed
to use higher tier parts, and the printed machines are always the lowest
required tier

## 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

Pylons were never updated alongside wounds, so it's an EXTREMELY common

## 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
So this PR comes in two basic parts: the new ammo types and the minor
balance changes. I'll go over each separately.
**--- NEW AMMO TYPES ---**
-- Metallic Hydrogen Ammo: Made from Metallic Hydrogen, obviously. Has
middling damage and no dismemberment chance, but pierces through armor
and enemies like they weren't even there.
-- Zaukerite Slivers: Made from a zaukerite crystal. Does high toxic
damage, and has excellent wounding and embed chances, but lacking in
armor penetration. Also gives 1 second of blurry vision if it hits you!
-- Paper balls: Crafted from a sheet of paper. Mostly just a throwing
joke item, and 99% nonlethal like donksoft. Can be fired from a
crossbow, but also could be used if you wanted to have a snowball fight
on metastation.
-- Healium Crystal Bolts! Crafted (using menu) from the healium grenade
item. Heals 30 of brute/tox/burn, but puts who is hit by it to sleep for
three seconds, limiting its use in actual combat.
-- Supermatter Bolts: Dusts whoever you shoot it at! Absurdly
overpowered! Admin only!
-- A makeshift quiver, made from cutting a o2 tank in half, to store all
the ammo in.
**MINOR BALANCE CHANGES**
-- For some reason I thought the 357, which the traitor crossbow is a
direct competitor to, did 40 damage when making the first version of the
PR, instead of the reality of it doing 60. It's been buffed to 55
damage. (The basic engi one still does 35.)
-- I've been informed that generally, the stressed rebar crossbow isn't
ever used, as the misfire chance isnt worth the extra shot. As such, I
felt it was thematic to say that the stressing procedure involves
messing with the draw system in the fluff, and the stressed one now
takes half as long to rack.
**OTHER CRAP**
-- The rods now drop themselves if you shoot them at a wall. Hopefully.
-- Fixed the the non-bare wound chance on the traitor crossbow not being
increased from the base version.
-- Has a nice electronic discharge noise on firing.
## Why It's Good For The Game
I'm very happy with the reception of the rebar crossbow, and felt that
given it was an engi weapon at heart, giving it some engi-related
ammunition would fit it very well (and also have a good reason for
making zaukerite besides selling it.) The paper balls were more just so
the crew could able to shoot their buddies with it and not maim them.
As for the balance, I feel the tot crossbow being department restricted
is already a strong factor in it being infrequently seen, and if someone
is lucky enough to roll traitor in a job slot, it's a shame if their
job's items aren't worth it. The stressed variant is a similar case, and
I hope it's enough of a buff to encourage its use.
## Changelog
🆑 WebcomicArtist
add: Added zaukerite (high damage/embed, low AP) and metallic hydrogen
(High AP and piercing, but low embed) crossbow ammo for the rebar
crossbows
add: Added healium crystal ammo for the crossbow as well, which heals
whomever you shoot it at.
add: Added admin-only supermatter crossbow bolts that dust you, because
why the hell not.
add: Added non-harmful paper balls. Can be shot from a crossbow, or
thrown at co-workers.
add: Added a quiver made from cutting an o2 tank in half, to hold it
all.
image: added sprites for all the above.
balance: Traitor Engineer Crossbow ammo now does 55 damage instead of
45, to make it compete with revolver.
balance: Stressed Rebar Crossbow now has a shorter delay required to
rack it, but can shoot you in the face on misfire.
fix: fixed rebar crossbow shots not dropping items on hitting walls
fix: fixed traitor crossbow having worse wound chance than the base one
sound: added new crossbow firing sound effect

## About The Pull Request
Reworks sneezing. Instead of a range check that checks if you're facing
someone, it is now a skill check
https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/assets/7501474/c11ffa16-9bd2-4ed1-8022-2094360657bc
All sneezes shoot projectiles, but depends on the virus if they're
infectious. Using the sneeze emote is the only method that doesn't shoot
a sneeze
## Why It's Good For The Game
I think the invisible infection mechanics are unfun. A lot of station
dangers challenge your knowledge and mechanical skill, while viruses are
gotten by being around people in a roleplay game. You can get a round
seriously ruined if you walk past someone with a sneezing virus and
don't immediately rush spaceillin or chemistry, which I don't think is
mechanically interesting.
Now if you get infected, it's a skill issue. Get good and dodge the
sneeze
Note that this is just one method of infection. I didn't touch coughing
and airborne viruses, which do constant area checks and infect everyone
around. I plan to, but not now. I'll probably make coughing do a cone or
something, and ignore the airborne viruses since they can't be modified
and are generally less broken

## About The Pull Request
Currently, if you handcuff someone and they only have sign language
available to speak in (mute, no tongue, nearby people are deaf, you have
bronchitis(?)), they are rendered totally unable to communicate with
anything but emotes. This is stifling to trying to roleplay with nearby
people who want to keep you cuffed for whatever reason (security,
antagonists, weirdos who keep hugging you, etc).
So instead, I've made it so that if you use sign language while
handcuffed, you are still able to sign, but to a much more limited
degree (3 - 5 words per message).
If you're put in a straightjacket, you're still totally unable to use
sign language.
Additionally, I spruced up the messages that sign language uses to
signify tone (?, !) and added one for EXCLAIMED QUESTIONS?! I also made
the emotes work as emotes, rather than the small (easily missable)
messages in the chat box. These emotes will not fire if you sign with
tone while cuffed, to avoid you becoming a spam machine.
## Why It's Good For The Game
It lets cuffed sign language users communicate, which is usually a
pretty good thing when it comes to improving a scene for both them and
the people they're playing with.
It improves the descriptiveness of the inquisitive and exclamatory tone
messaging for sign language users, and also adds one for a combination
of the two tones.
## Changelog
🆑
qol: Sign language users can now sign in cuffs, but to a very limited
degree. They also have more descriptive emotes for questions,
exclamations, and a combination of the two.

## About The Pull Request
### Suit Storage
Makes the suit storage of the various suits consistent across one
another. Now, all the mining suits use a single list which is easier to
maintain.
**The affected suit list is as follows;**
Explorer Suits (and therefore Syndicate Explorer Suits), Goliath Cloaks,
Bone Armor, Drake Armor, Godslayer Armor, Berserker Armor, Mining
MODsuits, H.E.C.K. Suit.
**The list of holdable items is as follows;**
Flashlights, Proto-Kinetic Accelerators, Advanced Mining Scanners /
Mining Scanners, Pickaxes, Upgraded Resonators / Resonators, Ore Bags,
Air Tanks, Spears, special monster organs like Regenerative Cores,
Knives, Proto-Kinetic Crushers, Cleaving Saws (the one that Blood-Drunk
Miners drop), Grappling Guns and Climbing Hooks.
~~It probably doesn't matter too terribly much because you know only air
tanks are going in that slot 95% of the time~~
### Bone Armor and Goliath Cloaks
Bone armor and goliath cloaks both have the same armor values,
environmental protections and coverage as the explorer suit (bone armor
includes the feet due to the sprite physically covering the feet, which
is not a terribly significant balancing point but worth mentioning).
They use the armor plate component to improve the parts of bone armor.
However, they use bone talismans instead of goliath hide to be upgraded.
Goliath cloaks come fully upgraded. You'll see why in a second.
Their recipes are slightly different. Goliath cloaks take nine hides
(I'm so sorry this is for consistency I promise you can't use the
upgrade system with something that deletes its own armor values like
this) and three sinew. Bone armor takes three goliath hides and 6 bone.
### Berserker Armor
Berserker armor can now be improved to the same armor value as drake
armor by using a full suit on both the body and the helmet of the
berserker armor. (Each drake makes two suits, so you need to use up both
suits).
Instead of an armor boost, rage now halves incoming brute damage. Fuck
you, Bubblegum!
### Minor Mining MODsuit Tweak and other armor value changes
The base value for the armor is now 20, rather than 15, so that when it
reaches max ash accretion it has equivalent armor to a fully upgraded
explorer suit. This is only a value difference of 5, but it always
annoyed me seeing it.
All the above mentioned suits also now have a value of about 10 wound
armor. This is because miners do actually experience wounding on
lavaland. Some of the armors had this wound armor. Some didn't. Now they
all do. I don't believe this to have been a deliberate design choice,
but rather, an oversight. Iunno, someone who keeps track of this please
tell me otherwise.
Upgraded suits get a prefix to show they are upgraded. Now, never doubt
whether the miner you are fighting is in a baseline explorer suit or a
riot suit level improved explorer suit ever again!
### Berserker Armor actually covers up clothing/hair underneath properly
and other minor stuff
This is why I started this PR by the way. This one fix. I expand the
scope of my horizons so broadly when I really sit down and PR, don't I?
H.E.C.K. and Berserker helmets can be used for internals.
## Why It's Good For The Game
There is a great deal of inconsistency with regards to the various
lavaland armor you can find and use. Some armors were wildly inferior to
others and only really having value for aesthetic. Some just seemed to
have oversights that didn't seem quite right. And most importantly, the
actual storage list for mining suits in general were not only
inconsistent in of themselves, but were also not being updated as time
goes on.
Bringing them all into line allows for miners to have a bit of freedom
of choice when it comes to appearance, without it becoming a balancing
sticking point nor a detriment to their effectiveness. It is also much
easier to maintain one list than six or seven lists.
Assuming that the baseline of the explorer suit is a-okay for someone to
possess, goliath cloaks and bone armor should now feel more like
fashionable choices rather than, in some cases, being either a worse or
better choice to take (its bone armor, bone armor is the best of these,
its really good generalist armor). I don't care what effect it has on
the ashlander economy. Neither should you.
The minor tweaks and fixes are just stuff that annoyed me for autism
reasons or were oversights due to changes to the items in question or
the game around it. I doubt anyone but me cares very much about these
minor differences, but I like consistency.
## Changelog
🆑
balance: The various mining related suits now have consistent suit
storage. Try putting a knife into your explorer suit's suit storage
today!
balance: Bone armor work similarly to explorer suits, with similar armor
values and options to upgrade their parts. However, they use bone
talismans instead of goliath hides to upgrade. Magic? Just believing
really strongly that the drake is hitting you slightly less hard because
of the talismans? You be the judge.
balance: Goliath cloaks come fully upgraded. However...
balance: The recipes for bone armor and goliath cloaks are slightly
different. Particularly goliath cloaks, which need a lot more dead
goliaths to make. Sorry.
balance: Mining MODsuits achieve at maximum ash accretion the same
amount of melee armor as an upgraded explorer suit.
balance: These various suits also consistently have wound armor.
fix: Berserker armor properly hides underclothing and hair.
balance: Berserker armor pieces can absorb drake armor to gain their
enhanced protection. Become the warrior of Khorne you've always wanted
to be.
balance: Berserker rage now halves brute damage rather than just adding
Melee Armor to you and your squishy body.
qol: Berserker and H.E.C.K. helmets can be used for internals.

## About The Pull Request
This completely reworks how ghetto chem separator works & brings more
depth & immersion to it. To understand the new system let's compare it
with the current one
**Old System**
1. You insert a beaker containing the reagents you want to separate.
2. You use a lighter/whatever to light a flame, Flame has _magic &
unrealistic_ properties such as
- It will never heat the beaker above 100k
- It doesn't burn oxygen or use fuel source to sustain it
- Distillation rate is a constant 5u/s. It doesn't increase as the
solution boils hotter
3. The apparatus sorts the reagents alphabetically? & transfers the 1st
reagent from sorted list to the target beaker. It does not care if each
individual reagent has their boiling points & how to separate them based
on that etc. It's just bland overall
**New System**
1. You insert a beaker containing the reagents you want to separate,
just lke the old system
2. You use a lighter/whatever to light a flame just like the old system,
however flame behaves in a more realistic fashion as follows
- It will heat the beaker all the way to 1000k if you let it run long
enough
- It now burns oxygen & uses a fuel source(a secondary beaker which you
must insert containing flamable reagents like oil, welding fuel etc).
When oxygen is the fuel source no O2 gas is required
- Distillation rate starts at 2u/s & increases with rising temps
- Intensity of the flame depends on the quality of reagents used as
fuel, Oil has best flammable quality & will heat the beaker faster,
other reagents mixed in various proportions can produce better quality
flames which you can understand by examining the aparatus
- The flame intensity can be adjusted via the burner knob setting
3. Each reagent now has their _boiling computed_ computed from their
mass allowing for realistic interactions, like having to control the
temp's just right to separate your required reagent
4. Temps automatically cooldown and you can install a condenser to
Facilitate faster cooling
Here's the demo video explaining everything

## About The Pull Request
### New fish
#### anxious zipzap
An incredibly anxiety-ridden and electroreceptive fish. Worried about
the walls of its tank closing in constantly. Both literally and as a
general metaphorical unease about life's direction.
It produces electricity, and HATES being with any other fish. One other
zipzap is allowed at most.
#### monocloning jumpercable
A surprisingly useful if nasty looking creation from the syndicate fish
labs. Drop one in a tank, and watch it self-feed and multiply. Generates
more and more power as a growing swarm!
A far better option for power generation than the zipzap, but it's a
syndicate fish. Get an emag or get very lucky!
Working spacebase example
### Aquarium type
Bioelectricity Generator! It boosts the power of electroreceptive fish
to very dangerous levels! But, uh, you put a tesla coil, and voila! Free
power! ...Free power if you keep the fish fed! More fish, more power!
You can convert an aquarium into a bioelectricity generator by
researching the new node, "Marine Utility", from bio processing. Then
you build the biogen upgrade kit and apply it to an already existing
aquarium.
### Fish Traits
#### Electrogenesis
Trait turns the fish into a shock weapon while it's alive, and every
time it feeds, it releases a weak tesla bolt to anyone close to the
tank.
#### Anxiety
anxious fish die when any other fish are in the tank. Please keep them
alone :[
## Why It's Good For The Game
Fish are great, but fish don't have anything to give back to the
station, right? Well, there's some small stuff, but I wanted to add a
bit of functionality towards being able to benefit from having fish.
The anxiety trait with the zipzap gives spessmen a bit of a challenge.
You can settle for one fish generating power per tank and do a
multi-tank generation setup, or you can do some crossbreeding to make a
fish WITH electroreceptive but WITHOUT anxiety. Neat!

Cleaner /icons/ file means saner spriters, less time spent. Stray pixels
and impostor files (ones which are copies of actually used ones
elsewhere) are not good.

## About The Pull Request
Title.
Converts TCG decks to use signals instead of a proc override, as is
better practice.
## Why It's Good For The Game
It's generally better practice to not snowflake behavior like this onto
the storage itself, instead using signals/procs.
Also, its good to have parity between add/remove in signals.
## Changelog
🆑
code: New signals for atom storage remove and insert

## About The Pull Request
this pr adds a new fish to lavaland and icebox, the lavaloop! i noticed
neither has any exclusive fish so im trying to add one of my own. u can
find this fish by using reinforced rods on lava or plasmarivers. this
fish is also lobstrosity's favorite delicacy as you will now often see
AI controlled lobstrosities fishing for it in lava and then eating it.
because of its body's curvature and razor sharp spikes, this fish can
also be used as a make-shift boomerang weapon against mining mobs,
although it comes with some new mechanics. u can increase the damage it
does to mobs by winding up ur throw. when the bar reaches purple, this
indicates maximum damage. however, if it goes over the purple, it will
react violently and explode your arm off, so you have to time it just
right to get the best damage possible. On icebox, instead of dealing raw
damage, fish will freeze mobs depending on how long you charged ur
throw. charging it for too long will cause the fish to freeze you
instead

while its nowhere near as effective as using PKA's or crushers, it can
be a useful tool for hermits and ashwalkers.
## Why It's Good For The Game
having lobstrosities fish and hunt for it makes lavaland feel more like
an ecosystem with a food chain. also i think tossing fish at eldritch
horrors is a funny way to fight them

## About The Pull Request
This PR fixes some balance and practicality issues with the spawner
component that has affected vent mining and the associated wave defense.
* The turf_peel() proc now checks to see if it's pulling no turf from
the inside or outside of it's peel, in which case it now has a default
case where it returns it's center turf instead.
* As a consequence of this, the center turf is where mobs will spawn if
an ore vent is unable to find any space where it can spawn any new
hostile mobs.
Upon testing this, it worked fairly well, but ultimately node drones
were capable of tanking enough hits for long enough that typically they
could still survive a small vent's onslaught. As a precaution, I've made
two additional changes.
* Node drones have had their maximum health dropped slightly, from 500
health to 300 health.
* As a secondary precaution, if a spawner using the turf peel method
cannot spawn correctly, it will send a signal, which ore vents are now
registered to. When called on an ore vent, it has new behavior to clear
the offending nearby turfs and create a pathway to allow nearby mobs to
get access to the vent.
* (**This is an explosion**.)
## Why It's Good For The Game
Fixes an unreported on the repo but repeatedly pinged issue regarding
ore vent waves where players could often wall off or blockoff an ore
vent in such a way that it allows vents to be functionally immortal by
quickly walling off the vent using sandstone doors. This should help to
prevent players cheesing the intended gameplay mechanic, as well as keep
up the challenge to arcmining wave defense without some additional
nuance.
I may have gone a little overboard with the health tweaks as well, but
considering that even with the explosions, I was able to survive the
repeated explosions on the vent, I think this should work quite well all
things considered. Still, open to feedback there.
## Changelog
🆑
balance: Ore vents, if blocked off from all four sides while being
defended, now cause a mild gas explosion, resulting in a mild dissuasive
explosion.
fix: NODE drones spawned from ore vent defense have lower maximum
health.
