## About The Pull Request
The first Curator now spawns with a **Broadcast Camera**, a normal-sized
item that can be wielded to start a live broadcast to all entertainment
screens across the Station! It also broadcasts sound through a new
Entertainment radio channel that can be spoken into by the Curator. The
broadcast name can be changed by right-clicking the camera.

Also adds a new clothing set to the Heroic Beacon of the Curator themed
around Journalists containing some unique clothing, a microphone, a
Press badge used for shoving into people's faces and crafting more
clothes (like Press armor and helmet), and also a set of 1 TV and 1
entertainment radio in-case station does not have places to watch
Curator's brilliant broadcasts.
## Why It's Good For The Game
The job of Curator has 3 things it can do:
- Curate Library (lol)
- Explore Space
- **Create News!**
Although the Curator does have extended access to the Newscaster -
that's not enough of content. Inspired by the Combat Correspondent from
the Colonial Marines server - Curator now has a **Broadcast Camera**!
Using it they can show the station what the most important matters that
are going on without lifting the butts of their comfortable chairs.
No matter what Curator will report: Security raiding Medbay? Interviews
of Cargo Techs complaining about Command? Maybe even shows produced in a
studio? Anything really!
Also, entertainment screens will get more use, as right now they only
_sometimes_ broadcast Bitrunning avatars and nothing else unless admins
mess with them.

## About The Pull Request
This adds a menu to all admin narrate verbs that allows you to select a
span type for your message. This includes global, direct, world, subtle,
and headset narrates.
This includes (nearly) all forms of text span. Some were not included,
like OOC announcements, centcom priority announcement headers, the span
used for hyperlink text, stuff like that. They're mostly all there, but
the stuff that probably shouldn't be showing up under a generic chat
message has been excluded. There's well over 100 of these things, so
pick whatever you want.
Due to the way this works, you can close the spans in the message
mid-string, in case you wanted to have multiple text formats in the
message. You can also just format text the old-fashioned way if you
really wanted.
**_Fun fact -- When using admin OOC spans, the reply will copy whatever
your admin OOC color is._**
Yeah I'm sure you can tell I'm a super mature person by what the test
messages I used here were. Laugh it up. Just know that I'm laughing too,
like a grade schooler who just learned their first swear words.
## Why It's Good For The Game
No more futzing about with copypastes and big long text files with the
span formatting already written out. Now, you can just pick them from a
list. Neato!
This will increase adminbus immersion by a factor of at least 3-5%
assuming all projections and the data we have been provided holds true.
## Changelog
🆑 Rhials
admin: Narrate verbs will now allow you to pick what text formatting
span you want to use before you send them, if any.

I forgot name could be a number for list indexes, so this switches to
using `in` instead.
Also improves the error message a little bit so reported issues can at
least say *something* about the value throwing an error.

## About The Pull Request
This adds a global list to precalculate lists that need to be handled
special by vv instead of manually updating such a list. @LemonInTheDark
brought up a potential issue with handling all lists in the way special
lists are handled, that modifying a list in vv can in some cases result
in the wrong list being opened for editing. This makes only special
lists have the issue instead of blindly accessing all lists the same
way.
