## About The Pull Request
Empath has become a component instead of a trait, letting it store
variables or whatever components are good for. Also, it works slightly
differently for empath quirk users and moon heretics alike.
Additionally:
- You can only shiver when you see an evil person once. After that it
won't happen again.
- Empaths no longer get a mood debuff from seeing someone distressed.
- Moon heretic empaths no longer get smited by evil people.
- Moon heretic empaths aren't scared of evil people.
The component also supports empaths being able to tell if a fake dead
body is actually dead, and being able to use empath on yourself, but
those aren't enabled for the empath quirk or moon heretics. (Self-empath
would probably powercreep self aware)
## Why It's Good For The Game
While the empath quirk is incompatible with the evil quirk, the trait
wasn't. That means you could potentially become an evil empath and still
feel bad about other people feeling bad and get smited by other evil
people. Being an empath is different from having empathy, and there's
now a personality trait (compassionate) that has a very similar feature
so the mood debuff got axed and moon heretics can't get smited by
mending touch anymore.
I think being a heretic and looking into pierced realities probably
means you have the mental fortitude to not freak out when you see an
evil person. Evil people are (probably) a lot less scary than whatever
mind destroying thing is in those holes.
As for the only-getting-scared-once bit, freaking out when you see an
evil person is flavorful but annoying after it happens multiple times.
Especially if it happens after examining the same person multiple times.

## About The Pull Request
Rather than having 100 separate list variables on `SSaccessories`, have
1 list for all feature keys that are associated with sprite accessories
This way you can get a feature by doing
`SSaccessories.feature_list[key]`, instead of necessitating
`SSaccessories.ears_list`, `SSaccessories.tail_list`, etc.
This lets us cut back on a lot of boilerplate in prefs, dna, and organs
## Why It's Good For The Game
We can see the benefit in this example: This is all the code for horn
DNA, bodypart overlay, and preference
```dm
/datum/dna_block/feature/accessory/horn
feature_key = FEATURE_HORNS
```
```dm
/datum/bodypart_overlay/mutant/horns
layers = EXTERNAL_ADJACENT
feature_key = FEATURE_HORNS
dyable = TRUE
/datum/bodypart_overlay/mutant/horns/can_draw_on_bodypart(obj/item/bodypart/bodypart_owner)
return !(bodypart_owner.owner?.obscured_slots & HIDEHAIR)
```
```dm
/datum/preference/choiced/species_feature/lizard_horns
savefile_key = "feature_lizard_horns"
savefile_identifier = PREFERENCE_CHARACTER
category = PREFERENCE_CATEGORY_FEATURES
main_feature_name = "Horns"
should_generate_icons = TRUE
relevant_organ = /obj/item/organ/horns
/datum/preference/choiced/species_feature/lizard_horns/icon_for(value)
return generate_lizard_side_shot(get_accessory_for_value(value), "horns")

## About The Pull Request
discussed in #93439, a generic proc for getting a list of all types
minus abstract types.
applies this to most instances of a for loop that currently filters out
abstract types
it SHOULD be a nothing burger for performance, however I have not bench
marked the difference. (also testing, there is a total of 7 calls in
init to it)
## About The Pull Request
So a pr a few months ago (#92438) shuffled around a bunch of our global
lists away from the misc file- and, in the process, broke some one with
special handling.
This just re-introduces the special handling for the top 1000 most
common words list, so it's once again associative, and moves it and the
other language lists into its own file so they're all nice and together.
This fixes our issues.
However, the file itself is still *alphabetized* rather than ranked by
commonness, despite us treating it as if it is.
...I'm leaving untangling that mess to a separate pr
## Why It's Good For The Game

## About The Pull Request
So, my original goal was just a refactor for the emissive overlays of
eyes, as a way to implement the specular emissive introduced by smartkar
some time ago, but somehow I found myself dragged into a bigger refactor
or cleanup of organ damage, thresholds, failures. One of the main
problem was that there were no procs called when a organ suffered enough
damage to fail or when recovering from failure. It'd just enable or
disable a bitflag, leaving it up to subtypes to decide how to tackle
organ failure their own ways: diverse, funky and sometimes incompatible.
More often than not relying on their very own "update_thingamajig" kinda
procs that run whenever the organ takes damage, rather than just when
the threshold is reached (low, high, failure. There are however a couple
organs with their own quirky thresholds, I let those slide).
There's also a bit of old code, especially for ears, with the
`AdjustEarDamage` and temporary deafness both predating the framework
for organ damage as far as I know. It really needed a coat of fresh
paint.
Oh, there were also more than a handful of organs that still heavily
relied on some ORGAN_TRAIT source instead of the `organ_traits` list and
the two add/remove procs `add_organ_trait` or `remove_organ_trait`. This
include organs that lose or gain specific traits when failing et
viceversa.
~~Lastly, felinids (and the halloween ghost species) having reflective
eyes. It's just a nod to the tapetum lucidum that animals with night
vision often have (including cats), which is why their eyes are a bit
brighter in the dark. Felinids however, do not have night vision (nor do
ghosts). This is merely cosmetic.~~ Cut out for the time being due to
issues with the specular emissive...

## About The Pull Request
What it says on the tin. Cargo now has new math for market elasticity,
each parameter and what it does is explained below
**1. Refactor**
1. **k_elasticity**: This is the elasticity as before applied on all
exports except now this is a floating-point value that swings from
`0->1` instead of 10e-10 like is the current case. This in laymen terms
is the percentile of an items actual cost that is sold on cargo [0 means
you get no credits, 0.5 means you get 50% of the items cost, 1 means you
get 100% of the items cost]. Whenever an item is sold on cargo this
value decreases by an amount that is determined by the next variable
2. **k_hit_percentile(default 5%)**: This is the value by which an
export `k_elasticity` decreases whenever an export is successful for
every unit of an item sold. The real formulae by which the exports
elasticity decreases is dependent on the total amount sold and is as
follows
<pre>k_elasticity -= amount sold (1 for most cases except stacks) *
k_hit_percentile</pre>
So subsequent exports yield lesser profits cause the elasticity
decreases. Now the rate at which the elasticity recovers is as follows
3. **k_recovery_time(default 10 minutes)**: This is the time (minimum
unit should be seconds) it takes for the elasticity to rebound back to
100% after it has reached full 0 but recovery process starts immediately
if it decreases at any point. So if elasticity becomes say 50% it means
it would take 5 minutes to reach 100% again
**2. Some Balance changes**
1. Profits earned from exporting gas is linear per mole sold so the more
gas you put in the more profits you get HOWEVER the max number of
credits you can make per canister is 15000 cr
2. Selling fish yields higher prices because it's no longer subject to
the old elasticity formula
3. Selling 50 sheets of anything will decrease future sale price by 10%
and will take 8 minutes to rebound back to 100% if it reaches 0
**3. Improvements:**
- `SSProcessing` subsystem no longer processes more than 180+ export
datums from round start itself but now starts out empty. It instead
processes only those exports whose elasticity has been impacted and
later cancels it after elasticity has reached 100% so performance of
this subsystem has been drastically improved
- export datums now respect `abstract_type` meaning they won't be
created and can be used as a skeleton body for subtypes. So datums like
`datum/material` & `datum/material/market` are not created anymore but
only their subtypes are so we save processing power & memory
- Shaved of a lot of dead exports that went unused
## Changelog

## About The Pull Request
Heretic has received a complete overhaul. This PR touches nearly every
aspect of the antagonist. For readability's sake, not every change is
going to be listed in this pull request.
For the full list of changes please refer to the design doc:
https://hackmd.io/@BiST8PJVRjiwVPY86U3bLQ/B11HyChz1g.
Code by Me, @Xander3359 and @Arturlang
TGUI by @Arturlang
Sprites by OrcaCora and GregorDM
Writing bits by @necromanceranne
### Core changes
- Cross-pathing has been removed. Main knowledge spells are now
exclusive to their path (for the most part).
- For every main knowledge unlocked (save for the robes and the blade
upgrade), Heretics can choose one option from a draft of 3 random side
knowledges (this is a free point).
- Heretics can now purchase side knowledges from a new tab, the
"Knowledge Shop". Side-knowledges have been divided by tier (Stealth,
Defense, Summons, Combat and Main). Tiers are unlocked as you progress
toward your main path.
- Heretics now gain the grasp and mark upgrade immediately, but their
main knowledge choices cost twice as much (except for the first spell,
the robes and the blade upgrade).
- Path specific robes have been introduced! They come with their own set
of quirks.
- Each Path has received a passive ability. This passive is upgraded
when you first create your robes, and again when you complete the Ritual
of Knowledge.
- Paths have been rebalanced as a result of the removal of cross-path
progression. Cosmic and Moon paths have received soft reworks.
- Upon unlocking the path 2nd level or reaching a total of 8 points
worth of knowledge, Heretics will lose the ability to blade break (and
the limit on blades all together).
- Ascension now automatically calls the shuttle with no possibility of a
recall.
- Late join Heretic has been removed.
### New UI
<img width="750" height="635" alt="moon path ui"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/184ef783-5c9c-48a1-a2f7-4807ca93e990"

### Knowledge shop

src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/3dc89b84-8c70-4d47-b612-54396e3ea6e7"
/>
### Quality of life //General balance changes
- Heretics will now gain X-ray vision for a few seconds when nearby an
eldritch essence (this effect has a cooldown).
- Ritual of knowledge now requires 1 uncommon item instead of 2. You may
now use a stunprod instead of a baton to complete the ritual. Beartraps
have been removed from the list of possible reagents.
- The maximum number of possible sacrifices required to ascend has been
reduced from 6 to 5 while the minimum has been upped to 4.
- Codex Cicatrix no longer requires a special pen to be made.
### Passive abilities
- Heretics now start with a passive ability. You can find what it does
on the path info tab after a path has been selected, and what they gain
when upgraded.
- Crafting your first set of Eldritch robes will bump your passive to
level 2.
- Unlocking the 2nd level will subsequently unlock your "Ritual Of
Knowledge"
- Completing the ritual of knowledge or ascending will net you the final
level.
### Path Specific Robes
- Armorer's Ritual is no longer a side knowledge. Each path will have
their own unique version of the ritual. This is placed after the 2nd
spell in the tree.
- Robes can no longer be destroyed by fire and acid, grant t4 flash
protection (Moth Heretics stay winning) and protection against basic
syringes, to bring them on par with other antagonist's armor sets.
- The recipe to craft the robes is now a set of armor/vest, a mask (any
mask will do now, not just gas masks), plus the unique reagent required
for the blades (Plasma for Cosmic, Trash For Rust, match for Ash and so
on)
- Wearing the robes as a non-heretic may yield some unfortunate
side-effects.
### Moon Path Rework
Moon path rework.
Moon Heretics gain immunity to brain traumas and slowly regenerate brain
health. Equipping the moon amulette channels its effects through the
moon blade; making it unblockable and cause sanity damage instead of
brute. Ring leader's Rise now summons an army of harmless clones that
explode when attacked; the explosion briefly stuns non-heretics and
cause sanity and brain damage to them. Moon blade can also now be used
when pacified and Moon spells are no longer blocked by regular anti
magic, only mind magic protection.
**Cosmic Path Rework**
Cosmic path has received the biggest batch of changes alongside Moon.
The path has been dead last in ascension and pickrate (less than 5%) for
almost 2 years. It did gain some popularity over the last few months,
reaching the highest ascension rate in the game (12%) while mantaining a
relatively low pickrate.
Cosmic sits in a weird spot, where pretty much every knowledge
surrounding the path is either mediocre or, in the case of the
ascension, dysfunctional. Yet it has maintained a smidge of relevancy
due to how quickly Cosmic heretics can capture and sacrifice targets
thanks to Star Touch.
As a result, the best course of action would be to rebalance the
entirety of the kit; granting the heretic more tools to manipulate space
and dictate the flow of a fight, while lessening their ability to end a
confrontation by instantly sleeping their opponents.
lastly The Star Gazer is now ghost controlled ; And they shoot lazers!

## Why It's Good For The Game
### Ok...but why do we want this?
Again, if you want my full reasoning, please check my doc
https://hackmd.io/@BiST8PJVRjiwVPY86U3bLQ/B11HyChz1g.
To keep it short and concise; Heretic is too complex and unintuitive for
its own good. Too impenetrable for new players and too abusable for
experienced players. This can be chalked up to a lot of poor design
decisions. But ultimately, what I believe being the biggest contributor
to the current status of Heretic is the ability to move into different
paths, also known as "Cross-Pathing".
### Cross Pathing my beloathed.
Cross-pathing, while cool in theory, overcomplicates the antagonist and
overloads them with power. Players dealing with the heretic are
incapable of working out what a given heretic can do. This also leads to
late game heretics having 3 rows Worth of action buttons and virtually
no weakness.
Over the last year, I've often received the understandable but also kind
of unfair accusations of making Heretic too powerful without a clear aim
or purpose.
My goal with the paths I've reworked over the last year (Rust,Void and
Blade) wasn't necessarily to just make them stronger (although that was
also part of the goal, as they were paths that were underperforming),
but for them to have more interactions with the sandbox and to better
live up to the fantasy presented to the player.
If an harbringer of frost gets countered by a cup of coffee, we probably
messed something up.
Unfortunately, the current incarnation of Heretic doesn't really allow
for surgical balance changes to specific paths. Every time a knowledge
gets buffed, we make every path that can easily tap onto that knowledge
stronger by default. It doesn't take a genius to understand why this
system is ultimately unsustainable.
### Blade Breaking
I feel that after a heretic has reached the near peak of their power,
they no longer need the ability to instantly escape any encounter. Check
my doc for my full reasoning.
## Less versatile, more specialized paths.
By removing cross-pathing, we remove a huge maintainability burden from
the antagonist. Paths can now be designed around clearer strengths and
weaknesses. They become easier to balance and less of an headache to
understand for everyone.
It also means we can give paths some needed quality of life quirks
without having to worry how such a change might have a knock-on effect
for other paths.
Ash heretics can finally let loose without dying by their own flames.
Cosmic Heretic can go to space without having to carry a modsuit. Moon
Heretic can use their abilities without fear of one random trauma
ruining their day, and so on.
### What a horrible night to have a curse...., wait how do I curse
people again?
As of right now the heretic tree has quite a hefty amount of trinkets
that pretty much never see use.
Partly because the tree itself is a nightmare to navigate. And partly
because why would anyone set up an elaborate plan or scheme when they
can unleash 2 rows of spell in the span of bunch of seconds.
Heretics mostly gravitate towards powers that push them towards greater,
more potent combat strength. If it doesn't contribute to killing people
quicker, it isn't worth doing for most. And given the opportunity cost
associated for taking those powers, they will remain that way so long as
there are better choices to be poached.
The new draft system encourages Heretics to play more with the tools at
their disposal. If you want to go for a specific combo from the side
path options, you may now do so by tapping into the knowledge shop.
Yes, the shop does include a few knowledges from the other paths. But
these are limited to 1 per path, are very expensive and can only be
unlocked very late into the shift.
## Drip Of the Mansus
The iconic heretic robe is actually sequestered to a side path that is
most easily access by only two paths at a time. Since heretic paths are
being made to be much more specialized, the most obvious way in which
this can be showcased is through an easily
identifiable outfit.
By using the robes, we can both telegraph WHAT heretic you are looking
at, and just how much power they've accumulated and when it is
reasonable to take the kid gloves off and treat them as a genuine
threat. If a heretic is in their
robes, that heretic is now a significantly more prominent danger to the
station.
It also serves as a useful means for gating some of the more powerful
effects of a heretic's path behind the robes, AND enable options for
disarming them of that power should they be captured without making it
something endemic to their mob.
A major problem with heretics is a lack of certainty as to how powerful
they have become. A heretics robes is one of the milestones to help
players dealing with heretics identify that.
### Will this be 100% fair and balanced?
This is a massive overhaul to a pretty complex and bloated antagonist.
I've done my best to show the changes to several maintainers and other
members of the community for their feedback. But at some point we'll
have to see how this behave in the environment to get a feel if
something is over or undertuned. (that's my way of saying, yes this is
likely gonna require a testmerge or two).
What I will say is that I'm not trying to change the core identity of
Heretic.
Heretics should have the upperhand in single encounters early on, be
able to joust a small group of players after they unlock their final
spell, and end the round when they ascend. They're a progression
antagonist. They should retain their payoff as well as pose a danger as
they grow stronger.
But if more players feel like they are more reliably able to play the
antagonist in more varied and interesting ways, rather than the
antagonist largely existing as a measuring stick for 'robustness' due to
its elitist design philosophy, then the rework has been a success. There
should be something for
everyone in the antagonist, as is true for all of our antagonist roles.

## About The Pull Request
Immerse element now uses an alpha filter rather than a vis_contents
object, which allows them to be much more smooth and seamless. There's
no longer a visible contour on fully opaque liquids, nor a janky effect
when you move in a liquid. This also fixes the broken fluid animation,
so now it actually has a bit of a wave to it.

The code is immensely cursed in some places, ideally this should not
have to use vis_contents whatsoever but BYOND seems to be intent on
causing memory leaks whenever you try to set mutable's render_target to
an interpolated string, so I'm using a VIS_HIDE object as a relay for
the filter for the time being.
I've ended up changing some mob pixel_y offsets to pixel_z (as they
should've been from the start) to account for this (the logic is being
that pixel_y is "physical" position on the turf, while pixel_z is how
high above the turf something is)

TL;DR: "What do you mean we didn't have an old fashioned in the game

This adds a bunch of different classic cocktails to the game that I
always felt were rather odd holes in the lineup of drinks that
bartenders could make, as well as a few less classic ones 'cause why
not. Adds thirteen new alcoholic drinks and one non alcoholic one.
Mechanically relevant drinks include the Blue Blazer and Hot Toddy which
warm you up like coffee, Bitters and Soda which settles upset stomachs,
and the Suffering Bastard which, in it's role as a hangover cure, calms
nausea, prevents headaches, and very slowly heals brain damage, giving a
way to heal chip brain damage that doesn't require chemistry or surgery.

More variety for service is always nice, but also many of these drinks
are extremely commonly ordered in real world bars. Adding them here
fills some weird gaps in the bar's line up, allows people to order more
drinks that they personally like, and decreases the amount of awkward
interactions in which people order a drink that they're familiar with
and then get confused when a partender somehow can't give them an
daiquiri despite having everything to make it.

## Why It's Good For The Game
standardizing behavior. Might be a micro hit to performance however
having this lets us not rely on icon state to determine whether
something is a parent type and makes it much easier to tell something is
a parent type (could be applied further to things like admin spawning
menus and things like that).
need feedback on if this is actually good for the game.
## Changelog
🆑
add: Soda cans show up in the silver slime drink table.
add: Examine tag for items that are not mean to show up ingame.
refactor: Standardizes how gifts rule out abstract types.
fix: gifts no longer check if something has an inhand, massively
expanding the list of potential items.

1. Splits `TRAIT_UNKNOWN` into `TRAIT_UNKNOWN_APPEARANCE` and
`TRAIT_UNKNOWN_VOICE`
2. Renames some stuff like `getvoice` and `getspecialvoice`
3. Gets rid some crummy signals around `get_visible_name` and
`get_voice`
4. Heads now apply the disfigured trait when relevant (rather than
snowflake checking for damage amount)
5. Ling voice refactored into using special voice (it was only used by a
viro symptom anyways; I don't anticipate this overlap being problematic)
6. Mask voice changer refactored into a trait
## Why It's Good For The Game
Potted plants shouldn't have magical voice concealing powers -
especially not over radio, but not over in person either. It's a damn
plant
So I addressed this by refactoring our face and voice system. Overall
things should be a lot cleaner and easier to use.
## Changelog
🆑 Melbert
refactor: Refactored a lot of code relating to human face and voice, ie,
what shows up in examine and in say. Report anything odd when examining
people, with ID cards, when talking over radio, or when disguised
refcator: Refactored how you get disfigured when your head's super
damaged
refactor: Refactored ling mimic voice and traitor voice changer

## About The Pull Request
Follow up from #92751 - Not to conflict with it but as an idea on how to
change it for the long run.
Paramedics currently start with broad department access. This proposal
replaces that by granting temporary department access only when an
emergency is called.
When a player presses "Call X" on a Requests Console, responders called
receive temporary access to the common work areas of that department.

> [Security] The Automated Announcement System coldly states, "SECURITY
EMERGENCY in Research Lab! (Called by Sloan Keppel, Scientist) RETA door
access granted to responders."
> [Science] The Automated Announcement System coldly states, "RETA
activated (Called by Sloan Keppel, Scientist). Security personnel now
have temporary access to your areas."
They do not receive access to sub rooms or high risk areas.
- Access lasts 5 minutes (configurable)
- Access is removed when the timer expires or the emergency is resolved
- No mapping changes are required (uses existing request consoles)
- Removes Paramedics round start access but gives them external access
to rescue bodies in space by default
- Flashing blue lights on doors affected by temporary access

## Why It's Good For The Game
- Removes paramedics’ broad “Doctor+” access.
- Keeps them effective as emergency responders.
- Responders must be called in OR access upgraded.
- Keeps sensitive areas secure.
- Prevents spam or stacking through cooldown.
- Scales across all maps without mapper work.
- Gives admins a new tool for temp department wide access
- Dedicated logging file and unit tests
- Very performant, only affects living players with connected mind
- Gives Request Consoles more use as an alarm button and further utility
- Imagine later on "Request Janitor" which sorts access and tells
Janitor where needed
## Changelog
🆑
add: RETA System - Request Consoles give temporary access to responders
when used for some areas. Paramedics lose broad access but get external
space access.
qol: Request consoles now show name and job role on call message &
Cooldown on spamming calls + sound prompt
qol: Medibot access no longer based on Paramedic trim ID - Still has
original access
image: Added "lights_reta" for temporary door access when in effect
admin: Gives admins "RETA door access" verb for giving department wide
area access on maps.

## About The Pull Request
- Fixes#88595
Cargo's gift giving was so bad it landed them on Santa's _very_ naughty
list. The ~cargo techs~ elves in charge were handing out game breaking
equipment.
This closes a loophole that allowed players to spam dumpsters during the
Christmas event for gifts that could contain admin tools and other debug
loot. I've removed Christmas presents (and holiday items) from the
dumpster spawns to put a stop to this.
## Why It's Good For The Game

Players were using the cargo system to purchase and dumpster dive
endlessly for OP shit. During the Christmas event, these dumpsters had a
high chance of spawning the special `/anything` gifts, which can contain
literally any item in the game, including admin tools and debug
equipment. This exploit bypassed the intended rarity of these items,
which were meant to be one-time, limited gifts from Santa's bag or the
Christmas tree.
## Changelog
🆑
fix: Santa has put cargo in his very naughty list for spam producing his
presents by dumpster diving. This fixes Christmas presents (and other
holiday items) from spawning inside dumpsters.

## About The Pull Request
This PR adds the ability to install a B.O.R.I.S. in a circuit that
contains an MMI component. These circuits can then be remotely connected
to by an AI by clicking on them or anything they are inside of. To
indicate that a circuit allows remote AI connection, an indicator is
given to the circuit and anything containing it.
Additionally:
- Refactors the MMI component to use `item_interaction`, since it was
pertinent.
- You cannot insert an MMI/B.O.R.I.S. into a locked circuit.
- You can no longer hotswap MMIs/B.O.R.I.S.es - you must manually eject
the inserted one.
Let me know what changelog labels I should use for the hotswap removal
and the prevention of insertion into locked circuits.

Rather than use hardcoded timers for the logout report, the report
instead utilizes a timer based on config values. The default value is
the current live value.
This timer can also be configurated to utilize randomization. Currently,
it defaults to randomizing between -3 minutes to +3 minutes for when the
report is sent.
The logout report timer is also added to the admin log.

Mod computers with the access changing software installed have a
secondary ID slot once again. This ID slot doesn't contribute to access.
You can insert IDs into the slot with right click and remove them with
alt-right click.
Also removes the "New IDs and you" memo paper.
Also tweaks PDA on_deconstruct so contents are dropped on when they're
deconstructed with assembly.
Fixes#92151
## Why It's Good For The Game
Changing IDs is very unnecessarily clunky with the one slot. Insert hop
id, log in, remove hop id, insert crew id, change access, remove crew
id, log out.
We had it right back when we had two slots. Insert hop ID, insert crew
id, log in. It just works.
This also allows for mobile HoPs to change access without necessitating
removing their ID from their PDA.
Other changes:
The "New IDs and you" memo is very old. They haven't been new for 4
years now. I don't think anyone reads it and they served their purpose.
I found it odd that, if your PDA was melted or blown up, it would delete
your ID. If this is a hold-over from old PDA behavior feel free to let
me know but otherwise it seems sensible that it'd spit out the contents
as you would expect.
## Changelog
🆑 Melbert
qol: The access changing software (the HoP console) now has ID two slots
again (one for the HoP's id and one for the ID being changed). You can
insert IDs in the secondary slot via the UI or right click, and remove

qol: If your PDA is destroyed via acid or bombs, your ID (and similar
contents such as disks) are spit out instead of being deleted
del: Deletes the "New IDs and you" memo in the HoP's office. They
haven't been new for 4 years.

## About The Pull Request
Because fish is an item, it inherits the use of integrity from objects,
however it also has its own health variable. For consistency, ~~damaging
its integrity should also lower its health and healing it should also
recover its integrity. Fish has a max integrity that's double its
health.
I've also renamed `adjust_health` to `set_health` since it doesn't
adjust the health by the provided value but sets it to said value.~~
I've scrapped the latter to instead use integrity.
## Why It's Good For The Game
A small bit of consistency. If you shoot a fish with a laser gun,
wouldn't it die?

## About The Pull Request
We have multiple "nullrods" which aren't actually ``/obj/item/nullrod``
subtypes, which causes runtimes when selecting them, which prevented the
signal from being sent out and the global variable from being assigned.
Additionally, we have multiple interactions which directly typecheck for
the nullrod item, which blocked multiple interactions (dispelling
heretic runes, rends, haunted items, psyker revolver and cult blade
conversion), which I fixed by instead converting those interactions to
check for ``TRAIT_NULLROD_ITEM`` which is assigned to all nullrods and
non-nullrod weapons spawned from the nullrod.

## About The Pull Request
- Rebuke effect (from god's eye and lobstrocity claw trophy) now works
on basicmobs, increasing the cooldown on their ranged attacks just like
it does for simplemobs.
- Bileworm spewlet trophy shots no longer hit your allied mobs, as
previously this would cause you to constantly hit your own
raptor/minebots/NODE drones, making it actively detrimental in some
situations. Its shots now deals brute damage instead of burn, as
otherwise its damage was reduced by 70% due to innate projectile
resistance of lavaland mobs, making it deal measely 6 damage every 10
seconds.
- MOD sphere module bombs now properly aggro lavaland mobs, as
previously they only worked on simplemobs (also fixed a direct
assignment to the blackboard in legionnaire spine code).
- They also no longer deal damage to minebots and NODE drones.
- Afterimages from the ice demon and their trophy can now be passed
through, although hostile AI would attempt to avoid doing so. This way
the trophy should no longer be an active detriment to players, and
demons themselves should be less jank to fight.
And if you're a heartless enough bastard, you can kill and butcher your
raptor to get a new raptor feather crusher trophy, which allows your
destabilizer shots to phase through your allied mobs similarly to
passthrough mods for PKA.

## Why It's Good For The Game
These changes should make vent defense more bearable, as right now its
very easy to accidentally damage and kill your own drone due to them
being hit by all AOEs in miner arsenal.
- Rebuke - should probably work on basicmobs as only remaining
simplemobs on lavaland are megafauna
- Bileworm spewlet - its a joke of a trophy at 6 damage as it has a 10
second cooldown, and it hitting your allies made vent defense much
harder than it should've been
- Sphere changes - should make bombs not kill your NODE/mining drones,
aggro helps prevent cheese.
- Afterimages - the trophy can end up bodyblocking you, this change
should make it less of a pain in the ass to use the trophy and to fight
the demons themselves.
- Raptor feather - useful for vent defense when you're using minebots or
have dismounted your raptor, right now its a pain for reasons mentioned
above

Three quality of life additions for recovered crew:
1. Jumpsuits are spawned in the crate, and no longer in the lockbox
2. Formaldehyde will no longer metabolize during the "soul pending" fase

## Why It's Good For The Game
1. This lets the reviver know what job they can expect to have, and make
more informed choices about which organs, implants and surgeries are
most beneficial to them. They can still change their mind, but it's
something I've always missed having and can help to tailor the
experience a bit
2. This is just annoying. Trying to revive them and not realizing the
formaldehyde is gone, and then realizing absolutely everything decayed,
is super fucking ass.
3. They get barely any starting gear, so some more money to help them
buy gear is really needed. The headset is just there to make it easier
to communicate with the department head or the HoP, it just gets you
going faster.
## About The Pull Request
Moves all the dna block handling onto singleton datums initialized
inside global lists, to make the handling dna less of a copy-paste mess
and make adding new blocks significantly easier. There is still some
work to be done in the copypaste department but ultimately that falls
under its own PR scope after the core refactor goes through. (Ill
probably do those but it will also be easier for everyone else as the
code is now significantly less of an eyesore)
Both features and identities have been tested through and through, and
seem to be working fine.
Also removed the reliance on weird hardcoded lookup tables for length,
and other similar things that just didn't make sense when I was passing
through DNA code. There's a lot more that fall out of scope for this
exact PR's goal however

## About The Pull Request

This PR adds "platforms" to the game, a port of the window frames from
the Wallening branch but with no windows attached.
You can craft them with two stacks of many kinds of materials.
Functionally they're basically just tables for standing on and act as a
decorative tool allowing you to make raised areas like stages.
Largely as far as I can tell I _think_ these were sprited by @Krysonism
although it's a little hard to check if there's any that were done by
someone else.
You can walk directly from tables to platforms (and crates) and vice
versa. You can also tableslam people onto them.
This PR also comes with "steps" (AKA small stairs)
You can use steps to walk onto platforms (or tables, or crates) without
needing to do the climbing action first.

If you try to run through them the wrong way you will trip.
Right now they only come in "Iron" flavour. Maybe one day someone will
sprite some wooden ones, or other varieties.
Basically the intention is to use them to build a little stage or altar
or maze or something. They don't have a lot of non-decorative purpose.
Don't be alarmed by the touched files list. It's mostly sprites and
there's barely even any code in this PR. It's almost entirely elements
and boilerplate.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Mappers keep asking me to add these.
Salvages some sprites from the Wallening project which we can still use.
You can make a really really big multitile pizza.
## Changelog

block similar to tables which you can walk around on.

without needing to climb on, but try not to trip over them.

## About The Pull Request

Adds the .38 Flare. It does 20 damage. This round highlights the target
for 2 minutes, and projectiles hitting the target always hit the limb
that the shooter was aiming at. Your shot has effectively perfect limb
accuracy, no matter how far the bullet needs to travel. This also
affects other projectiles hitting the target that aren't the .38 Flare.
To indicate whether or not a round in a magazine is either lead or
laser, I've borrowed the implementation of ammo overlays from the C-20r
toy magazines Now each bullet in the speedloaders for .38 can be a
distinct type visibly. Might be interesting if anyone wants to add
additional unique appearances for some of the other .38 rounds.
Reduces the overall cost of a lot of the ammunition in the sec and
autolathe, such as loose bullets. Also reduces the material quantity
within bullet casings.
## Why It's Good For The Game
> .38 Flare
By popular demand, I've come up with a new idea. And that idea...is an
anti-bullet deviation tool. Most players are probably not conscious of
bullet deviation. But if you're familiar with the mechanic, it's why
sometimes your shots may hit into an arm or a leg even though you were
aiming at the head.
The way this works is that over the course of a bullets flight, it
increases in inaccuracy and the pobability of drifting into a limb. From
my last estimate, shooting somewhere around 5 tiles away will usually
result in bullet drift.
While affected by the flare shot, that does not happen. You shoot at the
head, you hit the head.
To put it into perspective; you could consider bullet deviation a form
of damage loss (its a bit more complicated than this and there are
instances where it is positive), and this projectile eliminates that
problem for everyone shooting the target.
> Ammo cost
Some of these were pretty excessive for the cost, and a notable example
of this include the .357 loose casings, .310 Surplus loose casings, and
most shotgun shells. These should go down to roughly below 3/5th of a
sheet of metal when printed from a fully upgraded lathe.
Meanwhile, a single bullet casing was like a sheet of metal each, which
didn't seem right to me. So they're now by default one fifth of a sheet
of metal on recycle.
## Changelog
🆑
add: .38 Flare, a laser bullet! Available in both .38 speedloader and
BR-38 magazine once Advanced Beam Weaponry is researched.
add: .38 Flare highlights the target in an outline and makes sure your
bullets never accidentally hit any limb except the one you are aiming
at. Never accidentally hit someone in the arm when you were going for a
headshot.
balance: Reduces the printing costs of several ammunition types from the
autolathe and security lathe. Reduces the overall material contents of
said printed ammo/magazines. If you find a material dupe, let a coder
know.
