## About The Pull Request
Bears are now fast mounts in line with ponies and golden raptors.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Most mounts speed up when ridden because we insist on making basics mobs
slow as balls.
Space bears are one of few mobs that actually move at a normal human 1.5
second move delay.
One of the quirks of bear riding is that only sentient bears are
ridiable unlike most mounts, where you can tame the NPC mob and ride it.
Sentient bears have suffered greatly in the recent years, they used to
attack with a normal 0.8 second delay and be stun immune.
Now they attack with a 2 second delay like AI controlled bears, can be
stunned with stamina damage and even flashed.
Most competing mounts have a value add in some form, most comparable is
the carps and space shark which also share the poor HP pool and
spaceproofness of the bear but have big advantages of being able to fly
and regenerate.
By making bears fast, we make creating sentient bears inhabit an
attractive niche.

raptors.

## 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)
## Why It's Good For The Game
The effect is less jank and looks cool.

## About The Pull Request
This is a big one so please bear with me, wounds are complicated
### Max Potential Wound Rolls
We've decreased the max contributed damage to wound rolls from 35 to 25.
This results, after the exponent, a max possible wound roll of 1 to 91
before any modifiers (assuming the attack, after armor, is 25 or above).
The minimum value to wound is still 5.
### Wound Escalation Penalties
Most wounds were contributing significant numbers per wound type to the
potential for a new wound to occur. Getting wounded once meant you were
getting wound a lot, but actually getting past that first wounding may
be the tricky part.
We have significantly reigned in the wound penalty that having a wound
contributes, and instead utilize the series wound penalty to allow same
type wounds to escalate themselves faster as a priority. Having wounds
still makes you more wound vulnerable, just not to such an extreme
degree.
The priority here for what wounds matter most for contributing to
overall wounding vulnerability is ``Infected BURNS > BURNS >
SLASH|PIERCE > BLUNT.``
### Wound Armor
Wound armor, unlike all other kinds of armor, was used as a additive
value to the wound roll modifiers rather than a multiplicative value.
We have reworked how wound armor is determined by changing how wound
modifiers are calculated.
Firstly, we're passing our entire injury roll into the
``check_woundings_mod()`` proc, as we're not treating this as a proc
that just adds values anymore.
Secondly, bare wound bonus only applies if there is no potential wound
protection from any source, as expected. But it comes last in the
calculations.
Thirdly, wound protection is applied to the injury roll last, after
wound bonuses from the attack, wound bonuses from other wounds and wound
bonuses from a disabled limb are applied. This does not include serial
wound bonuses, which are determined outside of this proc.
Wound protection comes from two sources. Clothing and limb wound
resistance. Your chest and head have an amount of wound resistance so
long as they are not mangled in any fashion. Being mangled means having
either a hairline fracture or a weeping avulsion wound.
Wound protection reduces the final injury roll by a percentage. Say our
roll is 50, and we have effectively 50% wound protection. The final roll
would be 25.
### ~~Wound Armor on Clothing~~ Reverted
~~Most clothing have had their wound armor values changed. As a loose
rule, I used the highest of melee or bomb armor, except where that value
was 100, in which case I used the lowest instead. I'm basing this
decision on how embeds are calculated, which is attack type agnostic.~~
~~Some armor have inconsistent values because they are alternative
armors to an existing armor type or are hyperspecialized armor.
Ablative, bulletproof and security vests all share a value of 35,
despite the former two not having decent melee or bomb armor.~~
~~Some clothing missing wound armor that should have had them now have
wound armor.~~
~~This may need a bit of scrutiny in case one or two seem weirdly high.
Some have maybe become too low. Its a bit hard to say.~~
### The ``bare_wound_bonus`` variable
I changed it to ``exposed_wound_bonus`` to better represent when it
applies. You can be naked and still not be affected by this bonus if the
limb has wound resistance.
## Why It's Good For The Game
I'm not promising anything with this PR, but this is an attempt to
sanity check the values on wounds so that we're not seeing what the data
that determined the removal of beheading presented. An extreme
over-representation of tier 3 wounds. ~~And, from that, maybe I can
argue for beheadings coming back. That's my goal. I think beheadings
happened so much because the numbers were in need of work.~~ Well okay I
just wanna make wounds a bit more workable actually more than I want
beheadings.
Why is it that tier 3 wounds were so over-represented? Because wounds
will often force more severe wounds of other types by merit of any
wounds existing at all on a limb. Having **_a_** wound makes you more
wound prone for any kind of wound, and not just making you more likely
to suffer a more severe type of the same wound.
The threshold mechanic was intended to simulate making a wound worse,
but oddly just made a limb broadly more prone to getting worse from any
kind of attack to such a degree that future wound rolls of different
types were often going to start at the threshold necessary to be a tier
3 wound.
Dismemberment, mind you, requires you to suffer a flesh wound while you
have a bone wound of tier 2 or higher (with tier 3 giving a bonus to
this). You can do this readily via just a sharp weapon, because having a
mangled limb causes the wound to turn into a bone wound. Technically,
this is meant to be less likely as the effective damage for this wound
is halved. But the wound bonus from having a flesh wound was almost
always significant enough to kick your new bone wound up to a tier 3.
In other words; its not surprising that you saw so many beheadings,
because the system wanted to behead you as fast as it possibly can
thanks to all these escalating values.
Wound armor was only applied as a flat reduction on the roll. The
average for wound armor was 10. After receiving a single wound, you can
expect wound rolls to reach upwards of 100, even if the actual damage
roll was not particularly high, due to wound stacking bonuses form being
wounded.
This meant that wounds, if they happened, came thick and fast after the
first, regardless of what your protection might be to wounds. It was
just a matter of getting past the initial bump.
This is why effects that forced wounds were so powerful. They basically
made a given limb more prone to taking a wound without having to deal
with the protection problem first.
Finally, this is just a broad flaw with the system that is not its
fault. It is actually a problem that isn't a problem. Most people in the
game are not wearing helmets that protect their head. So most people are
going to suffer from a higher proclivity of being wounded if people are
aiming for the head. There is this...kind of cargo cult belief that
aiming for the head means you do more damage, or can stun someone if
you're lucky or what have you. It's entirely nonsense, but it has a
grain of truth in that people rarely wear, or even have access too,
headwear that provides wound protection or any protection at all. People
have jumpsuits, which are universally wound protected, but that isn't
true of the head. Look, the point is, they're not aiming at the head
because it is usually less armored, its for other reasons but it just so
happens to become true due to wounds and how wounds roll their type.
To soften this issue, I've decided to treat wound resistance as armor
until the limb suffers a tier 3 wound. This way, hits to the head MAY
not necessarily escalate to tier 3 instantly as they would on live even
from relatively low power weapons. Some weapons have very low force, but
have extreme bare wound bonuses. This should be less likely after this
change. I doubt this will necessarily make high damage high wound
weapons like energy swords any less prone to cutting you clean open, but
it might thanks to the reduction to contributed damage to the injury
roll. The system is now _a bit more random_.
## Changelog
🆑
balance: Wounds do not make you as vulnerable to suffering wounds of all
types as before. Instead, wounds make you more vulnerable to suffering
worse versions of themselves as a priority.
balance: Wound armor is now more impactful when protecting you from
wounds when you have already been wounded.
balance: Your head and chest are more difficult to wound until they have
been mangled; either from suffering from a weeping avulsion or a
hairline fracture.
code: Changed the variable for bare_wound_bonus to exposed_wound_bonus
to better explain what that variable is doing.

## About The Pull Request
516 requires float layered overlays to be using pixel_w and pixel_z
instead of pixel_x and pixel_y respectively, unless we want
visual/layering errors. This makes sense, as w,z are for visual effects
only. Sadly seems we were not entirely consistent in this, and many
things seem to have been using x,y incorrectly.
This hopefully fixes that, and thus also fixes layering issues. Complete
1:1 compatibility not guaranteed.
I did the lazy way suggested to me by SmArtKar to speed it up (Runtiming
inside apply_overlays), and this is still included in the PR to flash
out possible issues in a TM (Plus I will need someone to grep the
runtimes for me after the TM period to make sure nothing was missed).
After this is done I'll remove all these extra checks.
Lints will probably be failing for a bit, got to wait for [this
update](4b77cd487d)
to them to make it into release. Or just unlint the lines, though that's
probably gonna produce code debt
## Why It's Good For The Game

## About The Pull Request
ive heard from a few players that the game is a bit too difficult,
especially when there's lag. this makes the minigame generally much
easier, and takes ping into account. ive also made the difficulty depend
on a few factors:
- the raptor's personality affects the difficulty, where raptors with
the cowardly trait will be slightly harder to tame
- Settlers will have a much easier time taming raptors
(ive also moved the minigame into its own file)
## Why It's Good For The Game
the game was a bit too unforgiving, this makes it easier for people to
win. And the dynamic difficulty gives the feature some personality.

TRAIT_BEAST_EMPATHY
TRAIT_EXPERT_FISHER
which will, respectively, make them better riders, better tamers, and
better at fishing. I also made a small change to the riding code that
references riding speed boosts for people with the ROUGHRIDER trait
(would, at the moment, only be ashwalkers and settlers) that gives
ashwalkers the maximum bonus, to represent their primal connection with
the beasts in the area.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Ashwalkers are described in the lore as being denizens of lavaland, the
same as all the other messed up shit down there. This change brings them
in line with that. The improvements to the handling of the settler trait
will also open up avenues for expanding or improving on related systems
## Changelog
🆑 Bisar
add: Ashwalkers are now better at riding, taming animals, and fishing.
code: Behavior for the settler trait has been partially atomized into
several traits instead.

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

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

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

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

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

## About The Pull Request
Fixes https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/issues/82544
Goliaths can't grab themselves with their tentacles and shouldn't grab
their riders either.
Now if you're riding a Goliath you simply can't be grabbed by tentacles,
they'd grab your mount instead (who is immune).
I didn't make this a carte blanche "your tame goliath will never
friendly fire you" because I want them to be able to do that when you
are not riding them.

## About The Pull Request
I have been dissatified with the situation of skateboards for a long
while now, especially with the 'pro' and 'hoverboard' versions that
provide negligeable bonuses for the high price they warrant.
On top of all things, this PR makes the aforementioned two subtypes
faster than the standard and improvised skateboards.
Second, the hoverboard now hovers and can be used in zero g (more info
in the CL). The thing costs about 2000, so this is pretty much deserved.
Third, skateboards respect move intents. While in walk intent, you will
ride it slowly, but you also won't crash against other things.
Fourth, improvised skateboards are a nick more unstable and not
mechanically on par with standard skateboards.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Skateboard were cooler back when you would go fast and die young by
crashing into an airlock/spessman/wall at stim speed imho, also see the
first paragrath of the above section.
## Changelog
🆑
balance: The pro skateboard and hoverboard are now faster.
balance: The improvised skateboard is a nick more unstable than the
standard, so the two aren't exactly the same.
add: Riding a skateboard on walk intent will prevent you from crashing
into things, at the cost of speed.
add: hoverboards now actually hovers and can be used even in zero g.
There are a caveat to it: It cannot be ridden on open space gaps deeper
than one level or actual space, unless there're objects that prevent
falls, like lattice or catwalks.

Productionizes #80615.
The core optimization is this:
```patch
- var/hint = to_delete.Destroy(arglist(args.Copy(2))) // Let our friend know they're about to get fucked up.
+ var/hint = to_delete.Destroy(force) // Let our friend know they're about to get fucked up.
```
We avoid a heap allocation in the form of copying the args over to a new
list. A/B testing shows this results in 33% better overtime, and in a
real round shaving off a full second of self time and 0.4 seconds of
overtime--both of these would be doubled in the event this is merged as
the new proc was only being run 50% of the time.
## About The Pull Request
This PR improves motorized wheelchairs in the following ways:
- On initialize, motorized wheelchairs will have the most basic possible
stock parts inserted. This resolves a bug where motorized wheelchairs
spawned by admins or other means (mail, mapping) were completely
worthless, as they had no stock parts in them and you could not insert
better ones. When crafted, these basic parts are deleted and replaced
with the correct ones.
- Power cells are now part of the motorized wheelchair recipe, instead
of being inserted after.
- When deconstructed or destroyed, motorized wheelchairs now drop their
power cell on the floor with everything else instead of deleting it from
existence.
- Miscellaneous old code has been tidied up, removing one-letter var
names, pointless code duplication, and the like.
## Why It's Good For The Game
I've been talking to Dalm about this, and wheelchairs are in dire need
of some improvements. Tidying up the mess that is the motorized
wheelchair seemed like a good place to start.
Firstly, it's good for motorized wheelchairs to function as expected
when not specifically crafted by hand. This is helpful to admins,
mappers, and anyone else who might have reason to make one of these
appear. It's also good that all the parts in the wheelchair drop on the
ground when destroyed, as there's no particular reason power cells
should be lost.
As for power cells being included in the recipe - it's not obvious at a
glance that you _need_ to insert a power cell after crafting, until you
try to drive your new wheelchair around. This extra step of annoyance is
now avoided by making it required to stick one in when you build the
thing.
## Changelog
🆑
fix: Motorized wheelchairs will no longer spawn in a bugged state where
they have no parts and can't be upgraded.
fix: Motorized wheelchairs will drop their power cell when destroyed or
deconstructed.
qol: Power cells are now inserted into motorized wheelchairs as part of
the crafting recipe, instead of as an extra step afterwards.

## About The Pull Request
FOV as it is currently implemented is incompatible* with wallening.
I'm doin wallening, so we gotta redo things here.
The issue is the masking of mobs. Wallening relies on sidemap (layering
based off physical position), which only works on things on the same
plane (because planes are basically sheets we render down onto)
So rather then masking mobs, let's reuse the masking idea from old fov,
and use it to cut out a bit of the game render plane, and
blur/over-saturate the bit that's masked out.
My hope is this makes things visible in light, but not as much in
darkness, alongside making more vivid shit more easily seen (just like
real life)
Here's some videos, what follows after is the commits I care about
(since I had to rip a bunch of planes to nothing, so the files changed
tab might be a bit of a mess)
Oh also I had to remove the darkness pref since the darkness is doing a
lot of the heavy lifting now. I'm sorry.
Edit:
NEW FOV SPRITES! Thanks dongle your aviator glasses will guide us to a
better future.

## Commits I Care About
[Implements something like fov, but without the planes as layers
hell](a604c7b1c8)
Rather then masking out mobs standing behind us, we use a combo color
matrix and blur filter to make the stuff covered by fov harder to see.
We achive this by splitting the game plane into two, masking both by fov
(one normally and one inversely), and then applying effects to one of
the two.
I want to make the fov fullscreens more gradient, but as an effect this
is a good start
[Removes WALL_PLANE_UPPER by adding a WALL_PLANE overlay to material
walls (init cost comes
here)](2548933739)
@Mothblocks see this. comment in commit explains further but uh, we need
to draw material walls to the light mask plane so things actually can be
seen on them, but we can't do that and also have them be big, so they
get an overlay. Sorry, slight init time bump, about 0.5 seconds. I can
kill it with wallening.
[Moves SEETHROUGH_PLANE above
ABOVE_GAME_PLANE](beec4c00e0)
I don't think it actually wants to draw here
@Time-Green I think this was you so pinging for opinion
[Resprites FOV masks to be clean (and more
consistent)](f02ad13696)

## About The Pull Request
Fixes#79485Fixes#77552
Converts Guardians (aka Holoparasites) into Basic Mobs.
Changes a bunch of their behaviours into actions or components which we
can reuse.
Replaces some verbs it would give to you and hide in the status panel
with action buttons that you may be able to find more quickly.
They _**should**_ work basically like they did before but a bit
smoother. It is not unlikely that I made some changes by accident or
just by changing framework though.
My one creative touch was adding random name suggestions.
The Wizard federation have a convention of naming their arcane spirit
guardians by combining a colour and a major arcana of the tarot. The
Syndicate of course won't truck with any of that mystical claptrap and
for their codenames use the much more sensible construction of a colour
and a gamepiece.
This lets you be randomly assigned such creative names as "Sparkling
Hermit", "Bloody Queen", "Blue World", or "Purple Diamond".
You can of course still ignore this entirely and type "The Brapmaster"
into the box if so desired.
I made _one_ other intentional change, which is to swap to Mothblocks'
nice leash component instead of instantly teleporting guardians back to
you when they are pulled out of the edge of their range. They should now
be "dragged" along behind you until they can't path, at which point they
will teleport. This should make the experience a bit less disorienting,
you have the recall button if you _want_ to instantly catch up.
This is unfortunately a bumper-sized PR because it did not seem
plausible to not do all of it at once, but I can make a project branch
for atomisation if people think this is too much of a pain in the ass to
review.
Other changes:
- Some refactoring to how the charge action works so I could
individually override "what you can hit" and "what happens when you hit"
instead of those being the same proc
- Lightning Guardian damage chain is now a component
- Explosive Guardian explosive trap is now a component
- Added even more arguments to the Healing Touch component to allow it
to heal tox/oxy damage and require a specific click modifier
- Life Link component which implements the Guardian behaviour of using
another mob as your health bar
- Moved some stuff about deciding what guardians look and are described
like into a theming datum
- Added a generic proc which can return whether your mob is meant to
apply some kind of damage multiplier to a certain damage type. It's not
perfect because I couldn't figure out how ot cram limb modifiers in
there, which is where most of it is on carbons. Oh well.
- Riders of vehicles now inherit all movement traits of those vehicles,
so riding a charging holoparasite will let you cross chasms. Also works
if you piggyback someone with wings, probably.
## Changelog
🆑
refactor: Guardians/Powerminers/Holoparasites now use the basic mob
framework. Please report any unexpected changes or behaviour.
qol: The verbs used to communicate with, recall, or banish your Guardian
are now action buttons.
balance: If (as a Guardian) your host moves slightly out of range you
will now be dragged back into range if possible, rather than being
instantly teleported to them.
balance: Protectors now have a shorter leash range rather than a longer
one, in order to more easily take advantage of their ability to drag
their charge out of danger.
balance: Ranged Guardians can now hold down the mouse button to fire
automatically.
balance: People riding vehicles or other mobs now inherit all of their
movement traits, so riding a flying mob (or vehicle, if we have any of
those) will allow you to cross chasms and lava safely.
