## About The Pull Request
- Fixes#93392
- Replaces all custom callbacks with call to `deconstruct()`. The
callbacks weren't necessary as it did the same thing as `deconstruct()`
but in an round about way
- Removed duplicate `Initialize()` procs and the params `building` &
`ndir` from all wall mounts. Makes everything cleaner
## Changelog

fix: wall mounts placed by player now falls off when the wall they are
mounted on is destroyed
code: cleaned up wall mount code

## About The Pull Request
This fixes several bitfield operations that were missing parenthesis
encapsulation. I noticed this problem in:
- #92601
And decided to use regex to search for similar patterns which I came
across in:
- Move loops bypassing the `MOVELOOP_STATUS_RUNNING` status
- Elastic arms mutation bypassing `ABSTRACT` object flags for picking up
objects
- Species radiation bypassing `HEAD_HAIR` hairstyle flags for balding
- Damaged APC board status bypassing `EMAGGED` and `BROKEN` status for
screentips
- Shuttle cleanup code bypassing `MOVE_CONTENTS` for moving old turfs
- Tram crossing signals bypassing `NORTH` and `EAST` direction checks
## Why It's Good For The Game
Code behaves as intended.
## About The Pull Request
Fixes the bugged malf ai descriptions, properly describing which modules
need minimum number of hacked apcs
Adds a processing power limit to discourage just sitting on your ass for
2 hours to stack up infinite points
Increases the power draw of hacked APCs to increase the phantom drain on
powernet brought by malf hacking a lot
## Why It's Good For The Game
Discourages hacking two apcs and waiting for next two hours. Also having
working descriptions is cool.
## About The Pull Request
AI now gains its malf points over time, based on the number of APCs
hacked. I also added a simple way to lock malf modules from being bought
if you haven't hacked enough APCs, to avoid cheese with delta or robot
factory.
## Why It's Good For The Game
APCs hacked are a constant risk of being found, and instantly targeted,
yet they give one time bonus, that is fairly small. This incentivises
not using antag powers, and using natural AI tools, which blurs the line
for the crew between malf and subverted AIs, and makes fighting it
easier and more boring. With constant gain from the APCs the risk of
being found is rewarded, and malf that hacks a big amount of APCs and
avoids being found can use its powers fairly liberally, at a cost of
having to manage the detection chance.
## About The Pull Request
- If a cable is destroyed by an explosion, all rooms within 64-100 (it's
a probability) tiles AND which are connected to the same powernet as the
split cable will have their lights flicker 1-3 times.
- Also adds a verb for visualizing powernets.
- Reduces cable integrity from 300 to 50.
- Cables have innate 75% bomb armor when under a floor tile.
## Why It's Good For The Game
- A big devastating explosion a few doors down is, usually, not felt at
all outside of the screen shake. This adds a bit more ambience to the
effect - you hear a big explosion, your screen goes wild, and the lights
cut for just a second.
- Verb just makes it easier to trace powernets.
- I found it a little ridiculous that cables have 300 integrity, the
same as most furniture. This ultimately makes them a lot more vulnerable
to stuff like acid and fire.
- To compensate for their drastically reduced integrity, I gave cables a
considerable boost to explosive resistance while concealed under the
floor. This prevents bombs from outright shredding all cables in a 50
mile radius. (Devastating explosions will still one-tap them, but heavy
explosions will on average take two blasts.)

## About The Pull Request
During map export both the APC & its terminal are exported. However,
during import that terminal is not attached to the APC because it will
only attempt to create a new one if one is not already present and not
locate an existing terminal and re attach to it.
It now attempts to locate an existing terminal, from a previous map
export so the APC charges again and stuff
## Changelog

## About The Pull Request
When using the `map_export` admin verb the following things are fixed:
- All objects density, anchored, opacity, atom_integrity, and
resistance_flags vars are saved
- Multi-tile objects being spammed on all tiles the sprite reaches
- Dirt decals error icon
- Airlocks error icon and to save welded state
- Dark Wizard Simple Mobs error icon
- Closets to save welded, open, and locked states
- Air alarms to save name
- Air scrubbers/vents to save name and welded states
- APCs to save name, charge, cell, lighting, equipment, and
environmental states
- APCs spawning a duplicated terminal underneath it when one already
exists
- SMES to save charge, input, and output states
- Holodecks to revert any holodeck turfs to the empty turf and skip
saving any hologram items
- Photos and Paintings error icons
- Bloody Footprints error icons
- False Walls error icons
- Docking Ports runtimes because the map template var would change
- Effects (lasers, portals, beams, sparks, etc.) saving when they should
be omitted
I would have loved to get `component_parts` to save for machines and
turf decals, but perhaps that is for another day since it requires
complicated solutions.

## 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
Man.
### Standardizing Ethereal Defines
The _single_ biggest issue with all of the recent Ethereal prs has been
that, well, none of our Ethereal defines meaningfully tie to each other,
and as shown repeatedly it's _incredibly_ easy to the others when
changing one of them.
To resolve this, we introduce a `STANDARD_ETHEREAL_CHARGE` define that
every single other Ethereal define is scaled around, which itself is
tied to `STANDARD_CELL_CHARGE`.
Now these can be changed without immediately blowing up everything else,
and with awareness that they tie back to something.
As a side to this, we redefine all reagent-based charge recovery to be
relative to `ETHEREAL_DISCHARGE_RATE` rather than an arbitrary power
level, so it's easier to compare them to how quickly an ethereal
discharges.
### Adjusting Ethereal Defines
Previously, we defined `ETHEREAL_DISCHARGE_RATE` as `8e-3 *
STANDARD_CELL_CHARGE` per second, while defining `ETHEREAL_CHARGE_FULL`
as `2 * STANDARD_CELL_CHARGE`.
With some math, we get that we'd `2 / 8e-3 = 250 seconds`, 4 whole
minutes, to go from full charge to none at all.
It only takes half as much to get hungry, and about 3 minutes to start
taking toxin damage from roundstart.
So we slash this by eight, to `1e-3 STANDARD_ETHEREAL_CHARGE`, giving us
a nice 16-17~ minutes until we're hungry, and another 16-17~ until we
are 100% out of charge. This is also closer to the pre-power-rework
discharge rate.
What made this _worse_ was that the Ethereal APC charge define
`ETHEREAL_APC_POWER_GAIN` wasn't updated to match the current
charge/discharge levels, still being at `10 * STANDARD_CELL_CHARGE`,
which due to how it was coded led to it being impossible for Ethereals
to recharge from APCs.
We first and foremost change this to `0.1 * STANDARD_ETHEREAL_CHARGE`,
which is roughly equal to what it was before the most recent change, and
actually falls in line with Ethereal charge levels.
### Refactoring Ethereal Charge Methods
APC and Power Store recharging were both performing some awkward checks,
which led to our primary issues above, where they would refuse to even
attempt to charge if the stomach couldn't handle a full load or the cell
didn't have a full load.
So we rewrite their entire method to instead check how much can be
charged by taking the minimum of the cell charge, stomach used charge,
and charge-per-step.
We do this instead of just discharging it and taking the return value,
as the stomach may not have enough space for the cell's power, and
that'd get wasted.
This rewrite also allows us to address a small list of bugs.
We keep the `to_chat` for power store draining, as it better
communicates that this method is imperfect than a balloon alert would.
# Testing:<br>I spent an extended period of time looking at Ethereals
slowly starve in front of me with a stopwatch in hand.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Fixes#88934.
Fixes#88977.
16-17~ minutes is a _lot_ more bearable than 2-3~ minutes, and more in
line with discharge rates before the power rework.
Having Ethereal charging stuff actually work is nice.
## Changelog
🆑
balance: Ethereal hunger rate has been adjusted to be 1/8th of its
previous rate, now taking roughly 16-17~ minutes to go down from full to
normal or normal to none. Ethereal defines have been standardized to
help keep this sane.
refactor: Ethereal APC and power store draining/charging methods have
been refactored. Please report any issues.
fix: Ethereal APC and power store draining/charging no longer
arbitrarily caps out at slightly below or above the max/min.
fix: Ethereal APC draining/charging no longer runtimes when there is no
cell or it gets removed mid-charge.
fix: Ethereals can no longer continue charging their stomach even if it
gets surgically removed from them mid-charge.
fix: Ethereal power store draining actually updated the charge level
overlay.
qol: Ethereal APC and power store draining displays a balloon alert when
it can't continue for whatever reason.

## About The Pull Request
This PR kills the abstract internal and external typepaths for organs,
now replaced by an EXTERNAL_ORGAN flag to distinguish the two kinds.
This PR also fixes fox ears (from #87162, no tail is added) and
mushpeople's caps (they should be red, the screenshot is a tad
outdated).
And yes, you can now use a hair dye spray to recolor body parts like
most tails, podpeople hair, mushpeople caps and cat ears. The process
can be reversed by using the spray again.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Time-Green put some effort during the last few months to untie functions
and mechanics from external/internal organ pathing. Now, all that this
pathing is good for are a few typechecks, easily replaceable with
bitflags.
Also podpeople and mushpeople need a way to recolor their "hair". This
kind of applies to fish tails from the fish infusion, which colors can't
be selected right now. The rest is just there if you ever want to
recolor your lizard tail for some reason.
Proof of testing btw (screenshot taken before mushpeople cap fix, right
side has dyed body parts, moth can't be dyed, they're already fabolous):

## About The Pull Request
Introduces a new MODule in the uplink, makes the user transperent and
grants the ability to siphon light sources to recharge your suit.
Ingame demonstration: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bhXNOAMDy4U
## Why It's Good For The Game
I've been playing a ton of Splinter Cell and Intravenous recently and
this random idea popped in my head.
"Wouldn't it be cool if traitors could blend in the darkness to get a
jump on their opponents?"
Also unrelated
"Wouldn't it be cool if tots had a tool to recharge their suit that
didn't involve sitting in a pod for 10 minutes?"
This PR introduces a new module to the uplink, the Wraith.
It comes with a passive and active component.
Passively it works exactly like the crew version of the cloaking module
with just a couple of differences.
1) Doesn't need to be manually activated, if you lose the cloak it's
regained after 5 seconds.
2) Lower stealth alpha value( how trasperent you are basically),
slightly less visible than the crew version, not as good the ninja
module however , I tuned it just enough so that you are more or less
undetectable in the dark.
The active component of the module lets you destroy stationary lights to
recharge your suit power, if used on handheld or borg lights it turns
them off for a minute.
**Why do we need this module when we already have the stealth implant
and the chameleon projector?**
I can think of a few reasons.
1) MODsuits were designed to be customizible, traitor suits range
between 6 to 16 TC, having to invest in a 7-8 TC item after you already
bought a suit is fairly expensive.
2) This MODule would be a better fit for ambushes, as it doesn't have
the *uncloaking* delay of its counterparts.
It is however considerably worse if you get caught, as the cloak is
disrupted on bump or damage.
3) It has better interactions with the sandbox.
Lights can go out for many reasons, maybe it’s just a power outage, or
some assistant broke it, or maybe it was anightmare.
It leaves room for plausible deniability, adding to the paranoia.
It's also not complete invisibility, if you want to stay undetected you
need to lurk in the darkness, you might expand your domain, at the cost
of the crew eventually wising up to your shaeneningans.
Lastly, since the active component of the module uses the same proc of
the saboteur handgun, I've updated the code to be a generic proc rather
than a signal, to make it easier to reuse in the future.

## About The Pull Request
This fixes a couple of bugs that are still lurking for malf AI,
primarily, and reverts an unintentional balance change I did by making
mech domination cancel the delta activation.
There's a balance change instead; previously mech domination death
killed you (seemingly because of badly formed callstacks assuming you
never had a core or APCs available); I replaced this by causing the AI
to produce a massive EMP centered at their location if their mech gets
destroyed while they're piloting it.

## About The Pull Request
Currently to check for Silicon access, we do:
``if is silicon or is admin ghost or has unlimited silicon privileges or
has machine remote in hand``
What has unlimited silicon privileges? Bots, Drones, and admin ghosts.
To check for AI access, it just checks for AI instead of silicon, and
doesnt check for unlimited silicon privileges.
This was kinda silly, so I thought I should make this a little easier to
understand.
Now all silicon/ai traits come from ``AI_ACCESS_TRAIT`` or
``SILICON_ACCESS_TRAIT``. I made a single exception to keep Admin ghost,
since now instead of being a var on the client, we moved it to using the
same trait but giving it to the client instead, but since we have to
keep parity with previous functionality (admins can spawn in and not
have this on, it only works while as a ghost), I kept previous checks as
well.
No more type checks, removes a silly var on the mob level and another on
the client.
Now while I was doing this, I found a lot of tgui's ``ui_act`` still
uses ``usr`` and the wrong args, so I fixed those wherever I saw them,
and used a mass replace for the args.
Other changes:
- machinery's ``ui_act`` from
https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/pull/81250 had ``isAI`` replaced
with ``HAS_AI_ACCESS``, this has been reverted. Machine wands and admin
ghosts no longer get kicked off things not on cameras. This was my
fault, I overlooked this when adding Human AI.
- Human AI's wand gives AI control as long as it's in your hand, you can
swap to your offhand. I hope this doesn't end up going horribly,
otherwise I'll revert this part. It should let human AIs not have their
UI closed on them when swapping to eat food or use their door wand or
whatnot.
- Bots previously had special checks to scan reagents and be
unobservant, I replaced this with giving them the trait. I also fixed an
instance of unobservant not being used, so now statues don't affect the
basic creature, whatever that is.
## Why It's Good For The Game
This is an easier to understand way of handling silicon access and makes
these mobs more consistent between eachother.

gameplay itself.

Hello everybuddy, your number three rated coder-failure here to clean up
some mess. This PR accomplishes some of the more major structural clean
up changes I wanted to do with /obj/ folder, but decided to wait on
until wallening gets merged, and so, time has come. Several things to
still be done, although I know these cleaning PR's are quite a load, so
will wait for this one to get done with first.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Saner spriters, better sprites, less annoyance. Also deleted a whole
load of redundancy this time around, a lot of sprites which existed
simultaniously in two places now got exit their quantum superposition.
## What's going on here
Kept you waitin huh!
This pr resprites most all walls, windows and other "wall adjacent"
things to a 3/4th perspective, technical term is "tall" walls (we are
very smart).
If you're trying to understand the technical details here, much of the
"rendering tech" is built off the idea of split-vis. Basically, split a
sprite up and render it on adjacent turfs, to prevent seeing "through"
walls/doors, and to support seeing "edges" without actually seeing the
atom itself.
Most of the rest of it is pipelining done to accommodate how icons are
cut.
## Path To Merge
Almost* all sprites and code is done at this point.
There are some things missing both on and off the bounty list, but that
will be the case forever unless we force upstream (you guys) to stop
adding new shit that doesn't fit the style.
I plan on accepting and integrating prs to the current working repo
<https://github.com/wall-nerds/wallening> up until a merge, to make
contribution simpler and allow things like bounties to close out more
easily
This pr is quite bulky, even stripping away map changes it's maybe 7000
LOC (We have a few maps that were modified with UpdatePaths, I am also
tentatively pring our test map, for future use.)
This may inhibit proper review, although that is part of why I am
willing to make it despite my perfectionism. Apologies in advance.
Due to the perspective shift, a lot of mapping work is going to need to
be done at some point. This comes in varying levels of priority. Many
wallmounts are offset by hand, some are stuck in the wall/basically
cannot be placed on the east/west/north edges of walls (posters), some
just don't look great good in their current position.
Tests are currently a minor bit yorked, I thought it was more important
to get this up then to clean them fully.
## What does it look like?

<details>
<summary>Historical Mumbojumbo</summary>
I am gonna do my best to document how this project came to be. I am
operating off third party info and half remembered details, so if I'm
wrong please yell at me.
This project started sometime in late 2020, as a product of Rohesie
trying to integrate and make easier work from Mojave Sun (A recently
defunct fallout server) with /tg/.
Mojave Sun (Apparently this was LITERALLY JUST infrared baron, that man
is insane) was working with tall walls, IE walls that are 48px tall
instead of the normal 32. This was I THINK done based off a technical
prototype from aao7 proving A it was possible and B it didn't look like
dogwater.
This alongside oranges begging the art team for 3/4th walls (he meant
TGMC style) lead to Rohesie bringing on contributors from general /tg/,
including actionninja who would eventually take over as technical lead
and Kryson, who would define /tg/'s version of the artstyle. Much of the
formative aspects of this project are their work.
The project was coming along pretty well for a few months, but ran into
serious technical issues with `SIDE_MAP`, a byond map_format that allows
for simpler 3/4th rendering.
Due to BULLSHIT I will not detail here, the map format caused issues
both at random with flickering and heavily with multiz.
Concurrent with this, action stepped down after hacking out the
rendering tech and starting work on an icon cutter that would allow for
simpler icon generation, leaving ninjanomnom to manage the project.
Some time passed, and the project stalled out due to the technical
issues. Eventually I built a test case for the issues we had with
`SIDE_MAP` and convinced lummox jr (byond's developer) to explain how
the fuckin thing actually worked. This understanding made the project
theoretically possible, but did not resolve the problems with multi-z.
Resolving those required a full rework of how rendering like, worked. I
(alongside tattle) took over project development from ninjanomnom at
this time, and started work on Plane Cube (#69115), which when finished
would finally make the project technically feasible.
The time between then and now has been slow, progressive work. Many many
artists and technical folks have dumped their time into this (as you can
see from the credits). I will get into this more below but I would like
to explicitly thank (in no particular order) tattle, draco, arcanemusic,
actionninja, imaginos, viro and kylerace for keeping the project alive
in this time period. I would have curled up into a ball and died if I
had to do this all myself, your help has been indispensable.

it was viro
Wallem: Artistic review and consultation, was my go-to guy for a long
time when the other two spritetainers were inactive
Waltermeldon: Cracked out a bunch of rendering work, he's the reason
windows look like not dogwater. Alongside floyd and action spent a TON
of time speaking to lummox/unearthing how byond rendering worked trying
to make this thing happen

bugaboo that was living in my brain like it was nothing. Love you
brother
And finally:
The Mojave Sun development team. They provided a testbed for the idea,
committed hundreds and hundreds of hours to the artstyle, and were a
large reason we caught issues early enough to meaningfully deal with
them. Your work is a testament to what longterm effort and deep detailed
care produce. I hope you're doing well whatever you're up to. Go out
with a bang!

## About The Pull Request
The charge indicator overlay on power cells is now properly updated when
the cell is charged/discharged. Before, you could use a power cell until
it's empty and the overlay wouldn't change at all.
## Why It's Good For The Game
The overlay is there to indicate the charge of the cell. It should work.

## About The Pull Request
Fixed an issue with APC icon not turning green from #84983
Also changed the implementation of the way the emitters are prioritized.
Now there are separate lists for early and late processing machines.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Bug fixes, better power distribution, power monitors showing reliable
data
## Changelog
🆑
fix: APC icon properly turns green on full charge
fix: APC shows correct charging rate in UI
code: Added early machine process for shield generators and emitters to
prioritize power draw
code: Added late machine process for power monitors to gather accurate
powernet load
/🆑
## About The Pull Request
Fixed the issue when the power priority was preferring random machinery
around the station over the crucial Emitters and Shieldgens.
Because of how the consumers are selected right now, PACMAN attached to
a station network will give power for the machinery/lights/environment
of a random APC instead of the emitters next to it.
This also makes power sinks process before APCs.
Also made APCs charge in cascades within a powernet:
1. APCs try to charge to 5% to enable environment channel.
2. When all are above 5%, then allow APCs to charge to 20% to enable
lighting channel
2. When all are above 20%, then allow APCs to charge to 35% to enable
equipment channel
3. When all are above 35%, then allow APC to charge to full battery
As a result, a low-rate power source can provide enough power to at
least make all airlocks working and have dim lights enabled.
Charlie station APCs after you run PACMAN with 15 uranium sheets:
## Why It's Good For The Game
Makes emitters actually work, instead of having people fire kisses at SM
to raise the internal energy.
Makes it possible to use PACMAN to kickstart SM.
Gives a reason to set up solars.
Makes the power distribution more fair and equal after the recent APC
battery buff.
## Changelog
🆑
fix: Fixed emitters, shield gens and other wired machinery having lower
power consumption priority than APCs
qol: Made APCs charge more evenly to ensure that environment and lights
are working everywhere before giving the power for equipment
/🆑
## About The Pull Request
As the title says. A standard power cell now only stores 10 KJ and
drains power similar to how it did before the refactor to all power
appliances.
The new standard megacell stock part stores 1 MJ (what cells store right
now). APCs and SMESs have had their power cells replaced with these
megacell stock parts instead. Megacells can only be used in APCs and
SMESs. It shouldn't be possible to use megacells in any typical
appliance.
This shouldn't change anything about how much 'use' you can get out of a
power cell in regular practice. Most should operate the same and you
should still get the same amount of shots out of a laser gun, and we can
look at expanding what can be switched over to megacells, e.g. if we
want mechs to require significantly more power than a typical appliance.
Thanks to Meyhazah for the megacell icon sprites.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Power cell consumption is way too high ever since the power appliance
refactor that converted most things to be in joules. It's a bit
ridiculous for most of our machinery to drain the station's power supply
this early on.
The reason it's like this is because regular appliances (laser guns,
borgs, lights) all have a cell type that is identical to the APC/SMES
cell type. And it means that if we want to provide an easy way to charge
these appliances without making it easy to charge APCs/SMESs through a
power bug exploit, we need to introduce a new cell type to differentiate
between what supplies power and regular appliances that use power. This
is primarily what the megacell stock part does.
This moves us back to what it was originally like before the power
refactor, where recharging power cells wouldn't drain an exorbitant
amount of energy. However, it maintains the goal of the original
refactor which was to prevent people from cheesing power generation to
produce an infinite amount of power, as the power that APCs and SMESs
operate at is drastically different from the power that a regular
appliance uses.
## Changelog
🆑 Watermelon, Mayhazah
balance: Drastically reduces the power consumption and max charge of
power cells
balance: Added a new stock part called the battery, used primarily in
the construction of APCs and SMESs.
add: Suiciding with a cell/battery will shock you and potentially dust
you/shock the people around you if the charge is great enough.

## About The Pull Request
Replaces the Ansem, SC/FISHER, and suppressor in the Sam Fisher gimmick
bundle with the Ansem/SC, a variant of the Ansem that:
- has an integral suppressor (read: acts like it's always suppressed,
because it is)
- an underbarrel light disruptor (functionally identical to the
SC/FISHER, fired with RMB)
(note: firing the disruptor in combat mode causes the main gun to fire
as if it were being fired akimbo. which it shouldn't, but I'm not sure
how to make it not do that)
- is longer, visually, but not storage-wise, and also visibly has an
underbarrel light disruptor
Also added code support for integrally suppressed ballistic guns (with
no separate suppressor overlay), handled by the can_unsuppress variable.
Also fixes the SC/FISHER disrupting APCs for ten times longer than they
probably should have been disrupted.
## Why It's Good For The Game
In regards to the Ansem, SC/FISHER, suppressor:
The Sam Fisher gimmick bundle having the Ansem and SC/FISHER as separate
items always kinda bugged me, since it seemed too clunky for a
sneaky-beaky operator-type to have to juggle two guns (one which you had
to bump to normal-size, leaving it unable to fit in the belt) to break
lights and then shoot dudes in the back of the head. So now it's one
gun, like the M-90gl and its grenade launcher. I think the bundle's rare
enough that it's fine to give them this much.
In regards to the APC thing:
Shooting an APC with a gimmick gun and leaving it unpowered for two
minutes seemed unintentional.
In regards to the code support for integrally suppressed guns:
Maybe someone else will want to put in another integrally suppressed
gun? It was relevant for this use-case.
## Changelog
🆑
qol: The Ansem, suppressor, and SC/FISHER included in the Fisher gimmick
bundle now come together as one whole gun, the Ansem/SC. It's integrally
suppressed, and fires the disruptor on right-click.
fix: The SC/FISHER disrupts APCs for an appropriate amount of time, not
ten times the intended disruption length.

## About The Pull Request
I was trying to fix a bug with ejecting from mechs as malf AI and the
more I looked the worse it seemed to get? So I'm putting in this PR with
the intent to refactor AI code to not be a Byzantine nightmare of new
objects referencing each other incompletely or with buggy behavior.
Finished PR for #82579 because I didn't want to clutter the comments
with commits of me trying to fix shit with git restore and revert
## Why It's Good For The Game
Fixes#81877Fixes#82524
Mech dominating now just works off (and integrates with) similar code
for APC shunting
The cores left behind by AIs shunting or controlling mechs now properly
reference the AI instead of only the other way around
Some of these refactors slightly change how malf works; I think most of
it was unintended behavior in the first place, let me know in review if
not
## Changelog
The code for AIs remoting out of their shell has been refactored.
🆑
fix: Mech domination now properly integrates with shunting.
fix: Combat upgraded AIs no longer get two buggy malf ability pickers if
they also become malfunctioning
refactor: Refactored most of the functionality around malf AI shunting,
mech control

## About The Pull Request
Fixes many instances of things not charging ethereals properly. Scales
all things that are meant for charging/taking from the ethereal stomach
by STANDARD_CELL_CHARGE, so we never run into this issue again. Ethereal
stomachs now store a cell inside them, and uses that for the charge
instead of tracking a variable. Fixes recharging stations not being able
to charge ethereal stomachs. The ethereal signal proc attempted to feed
a callback datum to adjust_charge(), which caused a runtime. Changes
that by invoking the charge_cell callback instead.
Also fixes recharge station charging speed. They weren't converted
correctly. Also formats their charging speed in their description, and
displays power rather than referencing cycles.
## Why It's Good For The Game

## About The Pull Request
For how many lines this is, there's not a lot to really say.
In general, we simply move all item interactions from `attackby(...)` to
`item_interaction(...)`, split each item interaction off into a separate
proc, and make them all return the proper item interaction flags.
We _do_ kill some probably dead code, and remove a call to
`attackby(...)` elsewhere. Then, for clarity, we move the cell check
below the ID check so it can be next to the other item type checks, as
the priority between cell and ID is unlikely to matter anyway.
Other than what's described above and detailed below, each section's
functionality should be the same.
Now, for the parts that _do_ need to be explained more.
### Killing Probably Dead Code
Alright, so, the first part that does not have the cleanest transition.
d38f9385b8/code/modules/power/apc/apc_attack.dm (L22-L23)
Whatever the fuck this is.
Asking around, this seems to just be dead code.
For sanity's sake removing it and testing, silicon interactions with it
seem to work just fine.
So we kill it. We just kill it. We Just Kill It.
Closest we could find requires the distance check there to be false, so
it wouldn't apply. But it _does_ bring us to the second bit of weird
code.
### Calling APC Attackby Elsewhere?
So wallframes let you screwdriver them to put them up, which from a
comment seems to be because of cyborgs.
APC wallframes of course override this with their own implementation,
that allows you to also replace a damaged cover or frame like that!
d38f9385b8/code/game/objects/items/apc_frame.dm (L29-L39)
...By just calling the wholeass `attackby(...)` proc on the APC and
calling it a day.
But hey, this is where our previous splitting up comes in handy, because
we just have a `wallframe_act(...)` proc!
So we just call that instead.
```dm
var/obj/machinery/power/apc/mounted_apc = locate(/obj/machinery/power/apc) in get_turf(user)
mounted_apc.wallframe_act(user, src)
return ITEM_INTERACT_SUCCESS
```
...And not use single letter variables, while we're at it.
That should be all.
Remember to get snacks and drinks.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Split off 178 line `attackby(...)` item interaction chain into separate
procs called in `item_interaction(...)`.
Screwdrivering APC wallframes no longer calls the wholeass
`attackby(...)` on the APC, but just call the new sub-proc for the
specific interaction it cares about.
## Changelog

refactor: APCs have had their item interaction chain refactored. This
should functionally be the same, but please report any issues.
