## About The Pull Request
Fixes#77709
I made a very smart and sensible and handsome change in a recent PR to
replace `mob/goliath/random` and `mob/watcher/random` subtypes with
spawner effects rather than mobs which qdel themselves on init sometimes
however I neglected to account for how the lavaland map generation was
reliant on those typepaths to space mobs apart
resultingly the map generator would attempt to place lavaland mobs about
12 spaces apart _unless_ they were goliaths or watchers which it would
spawn basically as much as it wanted wherever it wanted

Whatever you do, if it warrants the use of something like
`handle_atom_del`, chances are `Exited` can do it better, as most of
these cases involve movables that shouldn't be moved out of their loc
(`Destroy` forcefully moves movables to nullspace) without calling
specific procs, and for the remaining few, `handle_atom_del` doesn't
even cover the eventuality of a movable being deleted outside the source
atom, so it's quite garbage.
Beside, I feel confident in saying `handle_atom_del()` is older than the
DCS, an echo on the workarounds done at the time.
## About The Pull Request
- Gives engineers an RCD as part of their round start equipment
- RCD by default will build/deconstruct slower if you already have
another one in progress. This can be upgraded with the new cooling
upgrade disk. Reconstructing (anything that was there roundstart as per
the destructive scan) doesn't have this downside, only
construction/deconstruction.
- RCD construction effects can now be attacked in order to cancel them.
This can be deterred with the anti-disruption upgrade disk.
- RCDs for nukies and whatever don't have these downsides
- The CE's roundstart RCD also doesn't have these downsides
## Why It's Good For The Game
Construction and reconstruction are currently one of the worst aspects
of SS13--they are so slow and tedious that any sort of mass destruction
goes unfixed for 10-30+ minutes, if fixed at all. This limits us because
it means people don't want traitors to create large explosions, for
instance--I do and so I think it's crucial that we fix construction.
Reconstruction has already been improved on the RCD with the destructive
scans, but I see no reason to limit this to something so out of the way.
Ideally the RCD even gets more functionalities, like the ability to
print stock parts (or having stock parts removed), etc, in order to
lessen this burden.
## Changelog
🆑
add: Engineers now have an RCD round start.
balance: RCD construction/deconstruction effects can now be attacked in
order to cancel them. You can get the anti-disruption upgrade disk to
prevent this.
balance: RCD construction/deconstruction is now slower if you already
have another effect up. This does not effect reconstruction.
balance: Both of the above effects do not effect the CE's roundstart
RCD, nor any other RCDs such as combat RCDs.

## About The Pull Request
Massively overhauls and standardizes the nuclear operative uplink.
### Weapon Kits
Essentially, all the main weapons of the uplink have been changed to
instead come as 'weapon kits', which are essentially cases containing a
weapon loadout to enable operatives to easily start operating on only
just one item purchase, without the fuss of worrying whether or not
operatives are getting spare ammo, or getting relevant equipment for
success. Consider this a pseudo-loadout, though without necessarily
restricting the purchasing of more weapon kits.
All kits come in three categories: Low Cost (8 TC), Medium Cost (14 TC)
and High Cost (18 TC). This is also matched by categorized ammo costs;
Basic Ammo (2 TC), Hollow Point and Armour Penetrating (4 TC),
Incendiary (3 TC) and Special (or anything that does not easily fit
these categories and does something real extra) (5 TC). Weapons that
lacked these ammos have gained these ammo types to fill the gaps.
<details>
There is may one exception to this in disruptor ammo, which is priced as
basic ammo if only because it isn't _quite_ good enough to justify
pricing at 5 tc and I can see an op wanting to use it as a basic ammo
type instead of normal .50 BMG against, say, a silicon/mech heavy
opposition. Since it cannot kill organics on its own, I'll consider this
mostly basic-adjacent
</details>
The kits have also been labelled based on potential difficulty. This
reflects possible difficulties in using the item, how conducive it is to
success for how much game knowledge needed to actually use it, and how
likely an op is to succeed using it. I don't expect ops to win using
nothing but a rocket launcher, but I think ops should get a fair shake
at trying, yeah?
The kits are as below:
#### **Low-Cost**
_Bulldog (Moderate):_ Shotgun and three magazines of standard ammo.
_Ansem (Easy/Spare):_ Pistol and three spare magazines of standard ammo.
#### **Medium Cost**
_C-20r (Easy):_ SMG and three spare magazines of standard ammo.
_Energy Sword and Shield (Very Hard):_ Energy sword and shield. (Also a
special hat)
_Revolver (Moderate):_ Revolver and three speedloaders of standard ammo.
_Rocket Launcher (Hard):_ Rocket launcher with three spare rockets.
#### **High Cost**
_L6 SAW (Moderate):_ LMG, and that's it. No spare ammo.
_M-90gl (Hard):_ Rifle, two spare magazines of standard ammo and a box
of rubber grenades.
_Sniper (Hard):_ Sniper rifle, two spare magazine of standard ammo, and
one magazine of disruptor ammo. Also suit and tie.
_CQC (Very Hard):_ Comes with a stealth implant and a bandana.
_Double-Energy Sword (Very Hard):_ Double-energy sword, syndicate soap,
antislip module, meth injector and a prisoner jumpsuit.
_**NEW** Grenadier's Kit (Hard):_ Grenadier's belt and grenade launcher
(the one that launchers chem grenades). (I replaced the shit acid
grenade with another flashbang in the belt)
Surplus SMG (Flukie difficulty) has been unchanged. It just now comes
with two rations.
Includes two new revolver ammo types: Phasic, which goes through walls
and armor, but has significantly less damage as a result (I've equalized
the revolver damage and the rifle version's damage to 30 for both). And
Heartseeker, which has homing bullets. Both are Special ammo, and are
priced at 5 TC a speedloader.
### Other Gear
The other items in the uplink have also been consolidated and
standardized in various ways.
#### Grenades
Most now cost 15 TC for three grenades of any given type (including the
full fungal tuberculous). This is pretty much identical to the previous
price, just more consistent overall and front-loaded in cost.
#### Reinforcements
All the various reinforcements now cost 35 TC and all refundable,
equalizing cost to the average across the reinforcements. This is
primarily because I feel like all these options should be weighed
equally, and not one of these options are necessarily worse or better
than the other in their current balance. They're largely inaccessible
for normal ops regardless, and typically come out when there is a
discount or war ops. I took the average value and went with it. Not much
more to say.
#### Mechs
They're just cheaper. These things still suck and they need help.
They've always needed help. A slightly less excessive value for the
mechs may help see people willing to spend the TC on them. I doubt it. I
seriously suggest not buying these still. I keep them in primarily
because they are big stompy mechs and are kind of iconic 'war ops' gear.
#### Bundles
Since I've implemented weapon kits, gun bundles are rather redundant. So
the bulldog weapon and ammo bundle, the c20-r weapon and ammo bundle and
technically the sniper bundle were removed. The sniper bundle is now the
weapon kit, obviously.
Nothing else here really. Except for one....
#### Implants
Not much changed here. I standardized the implant prices to 8 TC a pop.
This is in accordance with traitor implants, which ops also get. So
everything in this category bar a few exceptions (like macro/microbombs)
are around 8 TC. Makes sense to me, really.
Importantly, I made the Implant bundle 25 TC, and I unrandomized the
contents. Who in the right fucking mind would spend 40 TC just to get
five reviver implants is beyond me. But instead, you get one of each of
the cybernetic implants except thermal eyes (you can just buy thermals
and get the benefit of both vision types; x-ray and thermal vision, if
you want to use smokescreens a lot).
#### Base Keys
They're all now 15 TC, except the fridge which is 5 TC. It's weird
they're valued differently when they are taken mostly to do gimmicks
like xenobio and toxins in a hurry before hitting the station. So we've
standardized it.
## Hat Crate

## Why It's Good For The Game
The uplink needed more spring cleaning and standardization.
With this, I've partially implemented my older idea for ammo consistency
and initial allowance for nukies. Ammo is kind of over-priced and often
where a good chunk of TC goes towards without really pushing nukies
towards meaningful success. And it is often what is tripping up new
players who didn't think to get any. Now, when they get a gun, they get
ammo in their case. On top of this, the weapon kit category is both at
the top of the uplink AND has a little label to say 'Recommend', so that
these new players will hopefully know they should be looking there
first.
In addition, it is the gateway towards a concept that is currently being
worked on. Nuclear operatives having some degree of predefined loadouts
for players to select if they aren't sure what they want, or don't know
what to get. Nukies is very confusing for many players. So giving them a
fighting chance with some premade setups can help ease them into the
role without needing too much player knowledge in how to apply the
items. This is only one step towards that, so that players can identify
what gear they need to help succeed based on their skill.
I wanted to implement a difficulty warning so that players can choose
gear loadouts that are actually conducive to their skill and knowledge.
I based it on how much players would need to know to engage in combat
with it, and how much fiddling is required to get something to work
properly (overly involved reloading is a consideration, for example, as
well as precise button presses). In addition, how much of a force
multiplier some weapons can be for their ease of use.
Most people recognize the c20-r as the most new player friendly weapon,
as an example. So it would be good to steer players towards taking that
gun because of how easy it is to use, understand and succeed with it.
And most importantly of all; Having standards within the uplink is
important. Most of the values in the uplink are just completely random.
Nobody has a good grasp of what is too much or too little. Even just a
hint of consistency, and people will stick to it (see implants for what
I mean). And there is still some work to be done even there. A good
start is weapons. Price for power can be meaningful when decided whether
we want some weapons to come out more often than others. Players do
enjoy making informed decisions and choices, and having affordability be
a draw to some otherwise less powerful weapons (looking at you, Bulldog)
can actually be a worthwhile and meaningful difference.
~~I thought it would tick off the gun nerds to change the calibers on
the guns.~~
~~I also thought adding hats would be funny given the release of TF2's
most recent update.~~

## About The Pull Request
Adds a new station trait: Radioactive Nebula!
The station is located inside a radioactive nebula. Space background and
lighting is different shades of green. Objects in space will also glow
green. (This is kinda lying, since the glowing stuff isn't radioactive,
you just get an element that slowly irradiates you, though people and
certain objects that get the 'IRRADIATED' status may still double-whammy
you)
Do not go into space without rad-protected gear, or you will get very
sick very fast. RAD-protection MODsuit modules spawn in robotics and are
also immediately researched.
The nebula does protect against external threats, like pirates, ninja's
and nukies. They can still get to the station pretty well, but they
can't stay in space for extended periods of time
To make it more livable, public rad protection gear will spawn in
lockers around the station. Everyone will also spawn with potassium
iodide pills in their emergency box. Dynamics threat is also reduced by
30, so there's a proclivity towards more lower threat rounds when the
radioactive nebula is present. Radioactive resonance virus cannot be
generated though, since it kinda obliterates any and all challenge and
threat
**Shielding**
In order to protect the station from radiation, nebula shielding units
need to be constructed. Five spawn ready-to-built in engineering, and
more can be bought pretty cheap from cargo. (Normal radstorms are
disabled)
The gravity generator has 20 minutes of innate shielding, where every
nebula shielding unit adds another 20 minutes. 5 are needed to
completely block all radiation even when the gravity gen is down, but
constructing more is recommended in-case of sabotage/destructions/power
outtages.
Active nebula shielding will passively generate tritium. You can either
vent/ignore this, or use it for something. I'm not an atmos tech but I'm
sure you can do something with it
_What happens when no shielding units are constructed/they all fail?_
The station will suffer a 5 minute long radiation storm, with only
shuttles being excempt. The storm is nerfed strongly, and you can tank
the 5 minutes, but you'll be pretty sick. After the 5 minutes are over,
central command will send an emergency shielding unit which will block
the radiation for 10 minutes and warn the station to set up nebula
shielding.
## Why It's Good For The Game
The station being inside a radioactive nebula shakes up a pretty major
aspect of the game (that being the 'space' in space station 13). Hallway
decals are colored green, display screens will display radiation
markings, carps blend with the nebula, etc. Putting the station inside a
radioactive nebula shakes up the rules of the game and what people can
expect. Suddenly, you can no longer just go outside without taking meds
or getting proper radiation protection, encouraging people to stay cozy
and inside.
Inside, the crew gets the goal to set-up radiation shielding to defend
themselves against the nebula, rewarding a creative engineering
department with passive resource income and protecting the station
against massive radiation storms. I think it's nice to give engineering
something to set up. Even if they don't care, they can just plop it down
somewhere in a closed room and be done with it.
The radiation storm is pretty aggressive, but very survivable if you use
your potassium iodide pills, the extra radiation suits or whatever
chemistry has whipped up.
Most importantly, it gives the entire station a common enemy: the
nebula. Everyone is encouraged to prepare against the mechanics.
Chemistry can make meds, viro can make protective virusses, robotics
gets encouraged to make radprotected MODsuits, engineering gets to
set-up radiation shielding, assistants can look at space or whatever
assistants do.

## About The Pull Request
Hello friends, I've been on a bit of a lighting kick recently, and I
decided I clearly do not have enough things to work on as it is.
This pr adds angle support to static lights, and a concepting/debug tool
for playing with lights on a map.
Let's start from first principles yeah?
### Why Angled Lights?
Mappers, since they can't actually see a light's effect in editor, tend
to go off gut.
That gut is based more off what "makes sense" then how things actually
work
This means they'll overplace light sources, and also they tend to treat
lights, particularly light "bars" (the bigger ones) as directional.
So you'll have two lights on either sides of a pillar, lights inside a
room with lights outside pointing out, etc.
This has annoying side effects. A lot of our map is overlit, to the
point that knocking out a light does.... pretty much nothing.
I find this sad, and would like to work to prevent it. I think dark and
dim, while it does not suit the normal game, is amazing for vibes, and I
want it to be easier to see that.
Angled lights bring how lights work more in line with how mappers expect
lights work, and avoids bleedover into rooms that shouldn't be bled
into, working towards that goal of mine.
### How Angled Lights?
This is more complex then you'd first think so we'll go step by step
Oh before we start, some catchup from the last time I touched lighting
code.
Instead of doing a lighting falloff calculation for each lighting corner
(a block that represents the resolution of our lights) in view we
instead generate cached lightsheets. These precalculate and store all
possible falloffs for x and y distances from a source.
This is very useful for angle work, since it makes it almost totally
free.
Atoms get 2 new values. light_angle and light_dir
Light angle is the angle the light uses, and light_dir is a cardinal
direction it displays in
We take these values, and inside sheetbuilding do some optional angle
work. getting the center angle, the angle of a pair of coords, and then
the delta between them.
This is then multiplied against the standard falloff formula, and job
done.
We do need some extra fenangling to make this all work nicely tho.
We currently use a pixel turf var stored on the light source to do
distance calculations.
This is the turf we pretend the light source is on for visuals, most
often used to make wall lights work nice.
The trouble is it's not very granular, and doesn't always have the
effect you might want.
So, instead of generating and storing a pixel turf to do our distance
calculations against, we store x and y offset variables.
We use them to expand our working range and sheet size to ensure things
visually make sense, and then offset any positions by them.
I've added a way for sources to have opinions on their offsets too, and
am using them for wall lights.
This ensures the angle calculations don't make the wall behind a light
fulldark, which would be silly.
### Debug Tool?
In the interest of helping with that core problem, lights being complex
to display, I've added a prototyping tool to the game.
It's locked behind mapping verbs, and works about like this.
Once the verb is activated, it iterates over all the sources in the
world (except turfs because those are kinda silly), outlining and
"freezing" them, preventing any future changes.
Then, it adds 3 buttons to the owners of a light source.
The first button toggles the light on and off, as desired.
The third allows you to move the source around, with a little targeting
icon replacing your mouse
The second tho, that's more interesting.
The second button opens a debug menu for that light
There's a lot here, let's go through it.
Bit on the left is a list of templates, which allow you to sample
existing light types (No I have no idea why the background is fullwhite,
need to work on that pre merge)
You can choose one by clicking it, and hitting the upload button.
This replaces your existing lighting values with the template's,
alongside replacing its icon and icon state so it looks right.
There are three types as of now, mostly for categorization. Bar, which
are the larger typically stronger lights, Bulb, which are well, bulbs,
and Misc which could be expanded, but currently just contains floor
lights.
Alongside that you can manually edit the power, range, color and angle
of the focused light.
I also have support for changing the direction of the light source,
since anything that uses directional lighting would also tie light dir
to it.
This isn't *always* done tho, so I should maybe find a way to edit light
dir too.
My hope is this tool will allow for better concepting of a room's
lights, and easier changing of individual object's light values to suit
the right visuals.
### Lemon No Why What
Ok so I applied angle lights to bars and bulbs, which means I am
changing the lighting of pretty much every map in the codebase.
I'm gonna uh, go check my work.
Alongside this I intend to give lighting some depth. So if there's room
to make a space warmer, or highlight light colors from other sources, I
will do that.
(Images as examples)
I also want to work on that other goal of mine, making breaking lights
matter. So I'll be doing what I can to ensure you only need to break one
light to make a meaningful change in the scene.
This is semi complicated by one light source not ever actually reaching
fullbright on its own, but we do what we must because we can.
I'm as I hope you know biased towards darker spaces, I think contrast
has vibes.
In particular I do not think strong lights really suit maintenance.
Most of what is used there are bulbs, so I'm planning on replacing most
uses with low power bulbs, to keep light impacts to rooms, alongside
reducing the amount of lights placed in the main tunnels
**If you take issue with this methodology please do so NOW**, I don't
want to have to do another pass over things.
Oh also I'm saving station maps for last since ruins are less likely to
get touched in mapping march and all.
### Misc + Finishing Thoughts
Light templates support mirroring vars off typepaths using a subtype,
which means all the templates added here do not require updating if the
source type changes somehow. I'd like to expand the template list at
some point, perhaps in future.
I've opened this as a draft to make my intentions to make my changes to
lights known, and to serve as motivation for all the map changes I need
to do.
### Farish Future
I'm unhappy with how we currently configure lights. I would like a
system that more directly matches the idea of drawing falloff curves,
along with allowing for different falloffs for different colors,
alongside extending the idea to angle falloff.
This would make out of engine lighting easier, allow for nicer looking
lights (red to pink, blue to purple, etc), and improve accessibility by
artists.
This is slightly far off, because I have other obligations and it's
kinda complicated, but I'd like to mention it cause it's one of my many
pipedreams.
## Changelog

add: Added angle lighting, applies it to most wall lights!

## About The Pull Request
Foam is crummy at high load rn, both because it runs on a low priority
background subsystem, and because it wastes a bit of time.
Let's reduce usage (while speeding up a bunch of other stuff too), and
give it more cpu generally.
[Optimizes reagent processing
somewhat](d409bd4afc)
Turns out most of the cost of foam is the reagents it carries, and the
varying effects they have
I'm doing my best here to optimize them without touching "user space"
too much
That means doing things like prechecking if we're gonna spawn on top of
an existing decal (from glitter, flour, etc), and using that same proc
to also avoid spawning on unacceptable turfs (I had to convert
inheritance to a bitflag system to make this work, but I think that's ok
since we want it imparative anyhow)
It's actually nice for code quality too, since it lets me clean up code
that was using raw locates and weird var pong.
god I wish I had implied types man
[Optimizes foam spreading in its most accursed aspect, reagent
copying](5cc56a64ad)
Holy shit reagent code is a lot.
I'm doing a bunch of small things here. istype in init -> typecache,
removing procs that are called once and loop over a list we JUST looped
over (ph and the caching for reactions in particular)
I am mainly trying to optimize copy_to here, since that's what foam
spams
As a part of this, I removed a pair of update_total and handle_reactions
calls that were done on the reagents we are copying FROM
I have no god damn idea why you would want to do that, but if anything
is relying on the copy proc modifying the source, then that code
deserves to break
Speaking of, I cleaned up handle_reaction's main filter loop a lot,
removed a lot of redundant vars and changed it from a full loop w
tracker vars to an early exit pattern
This meant using a loop label, which is unfortunate, but this is the
fastest method, and it does end up cleaning up the code significantly,
Which is nice
Oh also I made the required_other var function even if there is no atom
attached to the reaction, since I don't see why it wouldn't
This last bit is gonna get a bit esoteric so bear with me
Failing calls (which are most of them) to handle_reactions are going to
be fastest if they need to check as few reactions as possible
One reagent in a reaction's required list is marked as the "primary",
and thus gets to trigger checking it.
We need all the reagents to react anyhow, so we might as well only check
if we have one particular one to avoid double checking
Anyhow, in order to make most calls the fastest, we want these reactions
distributed as evenly as possible across all our reagents.
The current way of doing this is just taking the first reagent in the
requirements list and using it, which is not ideal
Instead of that, lets figure out how many reactions each reagent is in,
then divy reactions up based off that and the currently divvied
reactions
This doubles the reagent index count, and takes the most common reagent,
water, from 67 reactions to I think like 22
Does some other general cleaning in reagent code too, etc etc etc

It also avoids the potential bad ending of foam spreading into itself,
backwards and forwards. This is better I promise.

## About The Pull Request
Removes all of the duplicate global lists for specific machine types
where the only thing they do is store all machines of that type.
Adds machine tracking to SSmachines in the form of a list for all
machines, and then an associative list for machines by their type.
Previously we have machines in multiple global lists, such as airlocks
being in GLOB.doors, GLOB.airlocks, GLOB.machines.
This makes that not a thing, and also means that iterating through
GLOB.machines looking for a specific type is no longer as expensive.
## About The Pull Request
This is a followup on my previous PR involving cargo imports. I've made
a number of changes and new additions to cargo's imports and contraband.
But I've also changed how Smuggler's Satchels generate loot as well.
### New:
**Abandoned Crates:** You can now order in abandoned crates at a steep
price. Obviously these are just your standard fare abandoned crates, so
they've got a pretty long list of potential contents. Some great, some
utterly not worth the price you paid for the crate. Since they're quite
pricey, you can't order very many quickly. But this does allow cargo
techs the opportunity to spend the round solving puzzles to get
interesting loot.
**Dumpster of Maint Garbage:** This dumpster (similarly named to another
dumpster you can order) is filled with maint trash and potential maint
random spawns. This list is extensive enough that anything spawned in
this crate is likely to be mostly garbage. But, it is more affordable
than abandoned crates. I'd consider this the literally trashier version
of the abandoned crate.
**Shamber's Juice Eldritch Energy! Crate:** A crate with one can of the
extremely rare, short run edition of Shambler's Juice, Eldritch Energy!
This contains 5 units of eldritch essence. Heals heretics, hurts
everyone else! This is a VERY potent poison, but it also happens to be a
handy way for a Cargonian heretic to get a potent healing item without
having to waste knowledge points.
**Animal Hide Crate:** It's a cargo crate full of animal hides! This can
include fairly rare hides and some icebox creature hides as well, like
polar bear hides and wolf sinew. It's not too expensive, and mostly
spits out leather.
**Dreadnog Carton Crate:** A carton full of the worst eggnog imaginable.
This is just something to troll people with. Drink it and you'll get a
massive mood penalty. Dreadnog! May or may not contain space cola!
### Updated:
**Contraband Crate and Smuggler's Satchels:** This has had it's price
increased considerably. But, for good reason. It now contains some more
controlled random items, but also some more valuable contraband as well
as a very rare spawn. The upper end on his contraband can be extremely
valuable, but the majority of the items gained from contraband crates
will probably be either what you can get now (quite weak), or something
a bit more middle of the road (some more unique narcotics).
As a consequence, I've also passed this change onto smuggler's satchels,
as they used the crate to generate its contents. (it literally spawned
and then deleted a contraband crate to generate the contents hoo haa).
I've also increased the number of items in the smuggler's satchel. Since
the randomly spawned smuggler's satchels are quite a bit rarer now there
is only ever two spawned in the map, and spending actual TC on these is
somewhat counterproductive, I don't imagine this will be more beneficial
for scavenger hunters hoping for some interesting goodies.
**Russian Crate (the normal one):** The mosins now spawn in ancient gun
cases. These determine what kind of mosin you can get. 79% of the time,
you get the crap mosin. 20% of the time, you get a good mosin. And 1% of
the time, you get rations. This more tightly controls how many good
mosins are entering into the round and how much of a value purchase the
Russian crate actually is for getting ballistics. Since the process is
even more unlikely than before, it isn't necessarily as guaranteed that
you will get a good mosin. Hell, you might not even get a gun if you're
that unlucky.
**Shocktrooper Crate:** It now has an armor vest and helmet. So, not
only do you get some grenades, you get some protection as well. Since
this is the 'loud' crate, I felt it appropriate to make it slightly more
useful for enabling that.
**Special Ops Crate:** It now contains five mirage grenades and a
chameleon belt, and has had the survival knife improved to a
switchblade. This is probably the weakest of the two crates STILL, but
hopefully these make them a little more interesting and novel by giving
them pretty fun grenade to toy with.
## Why It's Good For The Game
My initial PR hoped to add in a few more interesting purchases for
cargo. I think currently cargo has a slight issue of not having enough
valuable or interesting uses for their money. I think it still has that
problem, but by including more unique crates that allow cargo to provide
some oddities into the round, that might slowly work itself out.
This PR hopes to provide another way to waste their money if they have
an excess amount. Landfill Trash Gambling. Spending it away on complete
junk, which I think is absolutely hilarious when it doesn't work out, as
it is soulful in its design. Definitely not inspired by my recent thrift
shop excursions this month buying and scrounging for furniture and
interesting clothing.
[Relevant](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QK8mJJJvaes)
Also, I wanted to buff some of the crates I introduced a bit last time,
and nerf the mosin production somewhat via a more controllable method
that I can actually adjust as necessary down the line.
## Changelog
🆑
fix: Stops manifest generation runtiming when a cargo crate is empty.
add: Abandoned crates are now available via cargo imports.
add: Dumpsters full of maintenance trash are now available via cargo
imports.
add: An ultra-rare can of Shambler's Juice is now available via cargo
imports.
add: Animal hides and leathers can be (unreliably) ordered via cargo
imports.
add: The Dreadnog has entered this realm. To consume, purchase it via
cargo imports.
balance: Contraband Crates (and as a consequence, smuggler's satchels)
now generate more varied goods. Mostly the same, but sometimes you get
something quite different or even valuable.
balance: Mosins generated via the Russian supply crate are a bit more
random, weighing more heavily towards bad mosins than good mosins.
balance: Buffed both the shocktrooper and special op crate. Shocktrooper
now has an armored helmet and vest, and special op now has 5 mirage
grenades and a chameleon belt. The survival knife in the special op
crate is now a switchblade.

## About The Pull Request
Converts Goliaths to the basic mob framework and gives them some new
moves because I can't leave things well enough alone.
I am planning on touching all the lavaland fauna and then maybe even the
icebox ones if I haven't got bored. The Golaith is the first because it
is iconic.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JNcKvMwT4-Q
Here's me getting killed by one as a demonstration. Despite my poor
performance I would contend that they aren't a _lot_ more dangerous, but
they are a little more dangerous.
The chief difference here is that they have two new attacks which they
will only use in response to being attacked.
If fired at from range, they will target the attacker with a line of
tentacles (it doesn't track you, so is easily sidestepped).
If attacked in melee, they will surround _themselves_ with tentacles, on
a longer cooldown.
Something else you may notice in this video: I discovered that basic
mobs are actually _too smart_ to be Lavaland fauna.
Typically (unlike their old form) a mob on our new AI system is smart
enough to attack someone _the moment they come into range_ rather than
only checking on predictable ticks, which would make using the Crusher
an essentially unviable prospect.
To counteract this, Goliaths now have a delayed attack component which
gives you a visual warning and short duration to get out of range before
they swing at you. I will probably put this on all mining fauna that get
reworked, it wouldn't be a terrible thing to put on other mobs to be
honest.
Other changes: The goliath stun is now a status effect with _buckles_
you to the tentacle as if grabbed, as well as its previous effects.
While this seems purely worse, any nearby helpers can now help-click on
you to instantly remove the debuff.
Experiencing the effect of a Lobstrosity Rush Gland makes you immune to
being grabbed by tentacles and an implanted one will automatically
trigger and free you if you are hit, and the explosive effect of
Brimdust also causes the tentacle to retract (although you'd need to
take damage for this to happen). Using the tools of the land, you can
make these creatures less threatening.
The ability for a Goliath to chain-apply the ability has now also been
reduced, it won't refresh its duration if you are hit when already
buckled.
When not occupied hounding miners, Goliaths will intermittently dig up
the asteroid sand and eat any worms that this produces.
I also made some new sprites for riding a Goliath because they've been
broken since the Lavaland mob update and also kind of were ugly before
then anyway:
Other code changes:
- I made an element which only lets an attached object move every x
seconds. This is because Goliaths are far too slow to use the speed
system (the glide just looks bugged as hell) but one thing I am invested
in when converting these is to make sure that they share the same
behaviour when player or AI controlled. This is disabled while you're
riding them because it was interminably slow.
- The Goliath tentacle trail uses a supertype object now shared with the
Meteor Heart which did something kind of similar.
## Why It's Good For The Game
It begins the process of moving one of our larger subsets of NPCs onto
the newer framework for NPC behaviour.
It adds a little bit more life to an iconic but slightly uninteresting
foe which mostly just walked at you slowly.
This PR contains a few components I expect to apply more widely to other
mobs in the future.
## Changelog
🆑
refactor: Goliaths now use the Basic Mob framework, please report any
unusual behaviour.
add: Goliaths learned a couple of new attacks which they will use in
self-defence.

immediately free them, as will the effect of several items you can
scavenge from around Lavaland.

## About The Pull Request
/obj/structure/closet/mini_fridge is now a clean nice one, which only
spawns beverages and does not have that cockroach reference in the
description, and starts off anchored. now
/obj/structure/closet/mini_fridge/grimy works like the old mini-fridge,
with syndicake, moldy bread, and now the chance of an ACTUAL cockroach.
I've replaced them on maps according to each one's needs, So, as an
example, Northstar gets a regular one (it var edited it before) while
tram maints get the grimy subtype.
mini-fridges now can properly go over tables, so you don't have to
deconstruct said table to put it on top again.
## Why It's Good For The Game
I've found the need for a nice subtype while doing a ruin, and so has a
few other mappers apparently, as northstar had a var edited variant. The
fact that it couldn't go over tables and started off unanchored was
annoying on tram and icebox, where it is present on the kitchen and you
could easily push it to the ground and suffer.

Armories aren't really a dense area mapping wise, just a few guns there,

the mapping helpers kinda suck at doing, but its not totally woeful.

## About The Pull Request
Hey there,
A pretty bad bug (#76226) got through, but it was fixed pretty quickly
in #76241 (cf92862daf). I realized that if
we were testing all the away missions, that this could theoretically get
caught and not happen again. Regardless, unit testing gateway missions
has been on my to-do list for a while now, and I finally got it nailed
down.
Basically, we just have a really small "station" map with the bare bones
(_teeny_ bit of fluff, maploading is going to take 30 seconds tops
anyways let me have my kicks) with a JSON map datum flag that causes it
to load all away missions in the codebase (which are all in one folder).
Just in case some admins were planning on invoking the proc on
`SSmapping`, I also decided to gate a `tgui_alert()` behind it because
you never can be too sure of what people think is funny these days (it
really does lock up your game for a second or so at a time).
I also alphabetized the maps.txt config because that was annoying me.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Things that break on production could(?) be caught in unit testing? I
don't know if the linked issue I mentioned above would have been caught
in retrospect, but it's likely to catch more than a few upcoming bugs
(like the UO45 atmospherics thing at the very top) and ensure that these
gateway missions, which tend to be the most neglected part of mapping,
stay bug-free.
This is also helpful in case someone makes a new away mission and wants
to see if stuff's broken. Helps out maptainers a bit because very, very
technically broken mapping will throw up runtimes. Neato.
## Changelog
Nothing that players should be concerned about.
Let me know if there's a better way to approach this, but I really think
that having a super-duper light map with the bare basics to load up
gateway missions and then all nine-ish gateway missions can sequentially
load during init. I can't think of a better way to do it aside from some
really ugly `#ifdef` shit. Also also, it has the added benefit of being
a map that will always load your away mission without touching a single
shred of config (and it's not likely to break if you follow sane
practices such as making your own areas)
## About The Pull Request
Fixes#76484
Then I noticed some weird stuff which slipped through the PR and poked
at that too.
- Spiderlings and Spiders once more have names ending in (###)
- Removed an unused property on Spiderlings.
- Rewrote the descriptions for a bunch of web-abilities and web-objects
to be clearer and have better capitalisation.
- Refactored the "Web Carcass" ability to not extend from "lay web" as
it didn't need to perform most of that behaviour.
- Also I renamed it and made the description give you a hint about why
you would want to instantly spawn a statue.
- The web effigy now despawns at the same rate as the ability cools down
so you're not dumping spider statues all over the place.
- I made spiderlings move at about the same speed as humans except if
they're on webs in which case they're still pretty fast.
To be honest I am not certain an instant statue spawning button is great
to begin with and I didn't even know it was added to the game but I am
not interested in messing much with the balance for now.
This made me look at spiderlings enough that I'm going to try and make a
new sprite for them that isn't awful.

There is a 10% chance of getting one of 3 new diseases when you eat
dirty things.
Things become dirty when left on the floor for [more than 5
seconds](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five-second_rule).
But you can wash (with any method you know from spraying water to
cleaning with soap) or cook them later to avoid this.
Packaged, bowled, canned food (any food that spawns package as trash
afterwards) is protected from this effect.
Makes crafted food spawn on nearby tables when the hands are full.
Except the one behind you.
#### New diseases:
40% chance:
40% chance (Vomiting is of special type that does not stun):
20% chance:
## Why It's Good For The Game
Things that are left on the floor for too long intentionally are trash
that should be disposed by janitor. If you make a meal or prepare a
medication, it makes sense that you should keep your product sanitized.
Things that are dropped unintentionally are supposed to be picked up
quickly. "Oops I dropped this pie, need to pick it up quickly before the
germs spread". 5 seconds are enough for this. If you didn't manage you
will be like "Oh dammit, now I need to wash this pie in a sink".
Now players will consider to not just throw items meant for eating onto
the floor neglecting the fact that it looks odd. If they still ignore
it, people who consume the items will receive a harmless but annoying
disease.
In general this PR aims to force some IC gameplay onto Medics, Chefs and
Botanists so that they care a bit more about things they make for other
players.
The items have a warning message saying that they are dirty and
dangerous, so the consumers have a way to detect dirty items and an
option to wash them with soap/rag/sink/shower/fire extinguisher to
remove the harmful part from the edible item.
So to avoid this, players just need to examine an item before eating it.
Botanists can spray a pile of fruits from a hose for the same effect,
and washed items that stay on floor dont regain germs until moved to
another tile.
Food that converts into another item during cooking (like meat slab
turning into steak) or crafting, will not retain the infection. This
kinda simulates the sanitizing during cooking.
Medics can use elevated structures (e.g. conveyor belt) to avoid getting
their pills dirty during creation in plumbing. Or they can wash the
pills they want to distribute in the shower before packaging them into
pill bottles or a bag.
## Changelog
🆑
add: Food and pills have a 10% chance to infect with one of three new
diseases on consumption when left for more than 5 seconds on the floor.
You can wash it to avoid disease. ChemMaster and Pill Press are added to

harvest spawn on top of hydrotrays to stay protected from germs.
add: Added three new advanced diseases: Gastritium, Carpellosis, Nebula
Nausea with static cures obtained by digesting dirty food.
fix: Food no longer decomposes on Hydrotrays, Grilles, Bonfires and all
dense kitchen machinery

second rule too.

## About The Pull Request
Firstly, I gave the revolver a new sprite. I mean, this isn't so much of
an improvement as it is a reference I wanted to go with, so if people go
'no not a new sprite' I don't mind reverting.
What's the reference? Check the new name I added as a potential name
roll.
Secondly; I applied to the gun itself revenant bane, the ability to
clear runes, and proper magic immunity as a full null rod would enable.
This last bit was a deliberate design choice, but the divine bow has
full magic protection, so I think this is now more of a consistency
consideration compared to the divine bow.
Thirdly, the revolver is a .38 revolver, HOWEVER, it uses a damage
multiplier to bring it back to the damage it did originally. It also
cannot be reloaded without the prayer action. No cheating. Effectively,
this is the same mechanically as it was before.
It rarely does a funny crit fanfare. This does nothing mechanically, I
just thought it was a funny nod to the sprite's reference (and I guess
another game that the crit fanfare is based on). Borrowed parts of the
code and sprite from this April Fool's pr by Wallemations >

## About The Pull Request
Three new items have been added to the abductor credit store. One
carries concrete utility, with the other two being useful for
pranking/mind games.
The first is an alien hypertool with toolsets for either hacking or
surgery equipment. Toggle by right-clicking the item in your hand!
This can be an equipment upgrade, or replacement, for either member of
the team. It costs 2 research credits to purchase.
Also on the list of new stuff to buy (and stuff shown in the gif above)
-- You can spend extra points on abductorized versions of existing
posters. They can be used as decoration, or to troll and assert
dominance over the crew.
You can also buy a cow. It comes with some wheat.
Now, let's talk about all of the impulsive code changes I made while
making this PR:
- abduction_gear.dm has been split up into abductor_clothing.dm,
abductor_items.dm, and abductor_structures.dm because the file was
getting huge and I didn't want to make it bigger.
- There is now a runtime prevention check for trying to probe
non-humanoid subjects (like a cow).
- The abductor shop now uses defines for its categories, and uses lists
for build paths similarly to cargo crates.
Lastly, to facilitate the hanging of posters on the abductor ship,
posters can now be placed on indestructible walls. The code associated
with hanging posters (/turf/closed/wall/proc/place_poster) has been
moved to the /turf/closed level.
The scope of this PR kind of spiraled out of control with the file
splitting and the change to indestructible walls, I'm hoping it isn't
too much.
As for the spritework, most of it was done through the cannibalization
and recycling of other, existing sprites. Things may not look good (I'm
a coder not a spriter!) and I am open to interjections on what can be
improved.
## Why It's Good For The Game
The hypertool allows for both the scientist and agent to replace their
lost tools (with the same toolspeed), as well as upgrade their current
toolset if they have the spare points. Many use cases, all for the same
2 credit package.
The posters, while providing no mechanical advantage, are a nice
decoration (for an otherwise cramped, totally undecoratable ship) or way
of rubbing your success in the noses of the crew.
The cow is a dual-purpose psychological support/hindrance tool. He can
keep you from getting lonely on the mothership, or be beamed down to the
crew to annoy them.
Each of these are luxury items that give thriving abductor teams
something to spend their excess credits on.

Theres one player-facing change in this PR and it's that I removed human
gibs from being valid in space turfs, making it more consistent with the
other gib decals.
I've cleaned up many instances of decals spawning in bad turfs on
mapload in https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/pull/75189, but making
it error anytime in-game a decal is put over an invalid turf is bad as
it punishes contributors for not optimizing their decals properly.
This changes it so it only errors if it's on mapload, unit testing or
not.
I've also removed ``turf_loc_check`` and replaced instances of it with
overwriting ``NeverShouldHaveComeHere``, which gives us greater control
of where decals can be placed.
This let me remove 2 subtypes that were made to have decals in specific
places (which then got placed elsewhere, ruining it all).
Mappers are still able to set decals to be placed anywhere, they just
need to add it as a valid turf for that decal.

- Try destroying it with a wire cutter or any other object, but it must
be by hand
- If you are lucky (50% probability as the web uses the prob() proc) at
the moment the web is destroyed a balloon alert at the same time "stuck
in web" gets called causing the runtime because it added a timer on the
deleted spider web
**Solution**
Use loc for balloon alerts as that does not get deleted.
## Changelog

fix: fixes balloon alert runtime when spider webs are destroyed.

## About The Pull Request
[Reduces timer insertion cost by
80%](c9e5b285ed)
Timer name generation involved a LOT of string shit, some in ways where
the string only existed for a moment.
This costs a good bit of time, and can be reduced with only minimal
impacts on the end product, so let's do that. Includes a compile flag to
flip it back if we ever have trouble in future.
This is about 0.1s off init, since we do a lot of timer stuff then too
[Removes STOPPABLE flag from QDEL_IN, moves it to a bespoke
macro](e7a5d7f2a7)
Its a waste most of the time, tho I would LOVE to analyze at compile
time to work out if we care
## Why It's Good For The Game
I like it when we don't spend all of our cpu time just setting the name
var on timers. that's good and not bad.
This saves time fucking everywhere. 15% off explosions, 0.1 seconds off
init, bunch of time off foam. it's just good.
Cherry picked out of #76104 since that was too cluttered (sannnnnn)

## About The Pull Request
Fire stacks status effect no longer uses a weakref for the mob light, I
am pretty sure there was no real reason to use a weakref there.
Deleted weird luminescent glow dummy, now it just uses the standard
moblight obj.
Put all /obj/effect/dummy/lighting_obj together in a single file and
added a comment explaining why they exist.
(I severely dislike the /obj/effect/dummy typepath, but I am very much
unsure if just replacing all of them with /obj/effect/abstract would
break shit)

## About The Pull Request
This PR was made to replace the well known uglymine sprite with
something that doesn't look like a coder-sprite filler and instead looks
like an actual landmine. Simple as that, there's not really anymore meat
to this PR.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Replaces an older, depreciated sprite with something that has needed an
upgrade for quite a long time now.
## Changelog
🆑
image: Added a new Land Mine sprite

This PR is way less than the file changes make it seem like it is.
Okay, first, the boring part:
- Picking up burning items is now a signal registered on the burning
component itself, instead of being a direct /obj/item/attack_hand()
check
- Sear sound now has an SFX define for convenience, since it is very
commonly used
- Fire stacks when extinguished on mobs will no longer clean acid on
items (WTF?)
## About The Pull Request
Basically, due to carbons using KEEP_TOGETHER, particles were appearing
on the context menu which is annoying. I have no idea why it behaves
like this.
Buuut, giving particle holders the KEEP_APART flag does fix this.

## About The Pull Request
Unit tests will now fail if there's a decal in a wall or open space
turf. Open space turf could be limiting to mappers but I don't think it
makes sense for decals (like dirt, glass shards, etc) to be floating
around in space in the exact same spot.
If there's a decal you want to put in space, decals have a
``turf_loc_check`` var that will bypass this.
**Important note: This is not changing existing behavior. Decals already
delete themselves when they spawn in these incorrect locations, we're
just avoiding them from spawning in the first place.**
### Changes I made
- Ash flora are now lava immune, rivers spawn after flora does, so I
decided that it would be easiest (and more flavorful) to have them be
lava-immune rather than to not have them spawn at all.
- Decals can now be spawned in non-turf locations. This is currently
done by mail, which can give you bones as part of the mail. Currently it
will just delete itself instead.
- Trading Card button is now on the same tile as their display, which
now uses an offset. Before it would spawn it on the tile next to it,
which could be a wall in some instances.
- Mirrors now have floating movement type. They ARE floating since
they're attached to the wall, and it prevents them from burning up due
to lava in the Pride ruin.
- I also added a broken mirror subtype because I thought the icon_state
check was terrible.
- Bubblegum called ``DestroySurroundings`` several times on the same
thing, I hopefully fixed some of that. Their charge ability also
registered ``COMSIG_MOB_STATCHANGE`` despite ``/datum/action`` doing it
by default, so I fixed that too.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Decals in walls is already a bad idea, but currently all it does is
delete it on Initialize. It would be better if we ensured they wouldn't
spawn in the first place.
## Changelog
🆑
fix: Lava will no longer burn 6 of the mirrors in pride ruin
fix: Lava will no longer burn plants that spawn in them.

## About The Pull Request
So, I've had this idea to make a contribution to the Bepis feature with
some modsuit stuff. The gimmicky stuff is ok and a good way to even out
the better content since it has game of chance design it has (you can
find those disks in space anyway so...). However, the Experimental
MODsuit node feels very underwhelming right now, compared to how big
that feature is.
This PR adds three MOD modules to the Experimental MODsuit node, plus
two more:
- Magneto Charger: While the Modsuit is activated, each step the user
takes will charge the installed power cell by a tiny bit, enough to
sustain a standard modsuit of generic slow speed with only a few, easy
modules installed. It won't work in zero G, while flying, pulled by
someone else, on a conveyor belt, riding a vehicle or crawling on the
floor, though.
- Recycler: It collects (most) garbage and casings off the ground and
recycles them into material sheets that can be dispensed on an adjacent
location or storage with with Middle Mouse Button. Doesn't clean debris,
and scuffed because most trash doesn't yield material anyway.
- - It also has two subtypes, unbound from the node: one that dispenses
riot foam darts and can be found on the black market, and another that
dispenses the more innocuous foam darts, rarely found in maints.
- Shooting Assistant: A configurable module. On Stormtrooper mode, it
will give the user a faster fire rate (the double tap trait) at the cost
of accuracy. On Sharpshooter mode, it will improve the user accuracy and
make their shots ricochet against walls at least once (if the hit atom
allows that, that is, e.g. lasers don't ricochet against iron walls), at
the cost of movement speed. Both modes also prevent the user from dual
wielding guns.
To make the Stormtrooper mode stackable with the poor aim quirk and
refrain from making a new trait for the sharpshooter mode, the gun
spread code in gun.dm has also received a little refactor and cleanup.
Also, it's been tested.
## Why It's Good For The Game
The Experimental MODsuit node is quite shabby and could use something
extra to make it more appealing to MODsuit enjoyers.
Also doubles down as a small addition to the black market and maint
loot, and code cleanup, since gun code gives off some garbled vibes.
## Changelog
🆑
add: Expanded the Experimental MODsuit Bepis node with three new
modules: Magneto Charger, Recycler and Shooting Assistant.
add: Added a Riot Foam Recycler module to the black market, as well a
more innocuous version as maint loot.

I don't have proof this is bugged, but does anyone have any memory of
this actually working?
`in contents` doesn't work? It's a landmark? There are no closets in the
contents of the landmark? Surely it should be looking at the contents of
the turf?

## About The Pull Request
Signals were initially only usable with component listeners, which while
no longer the case has lead to outdated documentation, names, and a
similar location in code.
This pr pulls the two apart. Partially because mso thinks we should, but
also because they really aren't directly linked anymore, and having them
in this midstate just confuses people.

## About The Pull Request
The current broken tiles have some visual issues:
- There is an ambient occlusion shade when it touches normal tile
- It has a layer higher than it should be which leads to things that are
normally above the floor layer, render below it. Such as atmos
machinery, cleanable overlays, etc.
This PR makes the render on a proper layer and work like a partially
destroyed floor tile that can be reclaimed with crowbar.
Also, the cleanables are now on FLOOR_CLEAN_LAYER to make dirt appear
above catwalks and these new tiles.
And the flat dirt now has 4 variants of sprites, while dust uses the old
dirt sprite. It seems like dust was just dirt with different description
before.
## Why It's Good For The Game
A broken tiling with no visual bugs and proper floor-like logic.
## Changelog
🆑 MTandi, Borbop
fix: Dust now has dust icon, instead of dirt icon. Dust on all maps
replaced with dirt
image: Flat dirt now picks from 4 new sprites
refactor: Made broken tiling work more like tiling and have
corresponding visuals. Added directional mapping variants.
fix: Cleanables now use FLOOR_CLEAN_LAYER to make sure that trash is
visible above catwalks
