- You must be in the territory physically to tag it now. So no more tagging everything from maint.
- Influence income changed to provide weaker gangs a bigger boost, while slowing down stronger gangs to promote opportunity for comebacks
- Gangs only earn influence on territories they have held on to since the previous Status Report (the income calculation every 5 minutes). This places more significance on defending your existing territory.
- Removed solars and shuttles, and the toxins test chamber from valid territory list
- Victory conditions are only checked during Status Reports.
- Bosses no longer receive territory updates real-time. They now get them all as a list of new and lost territories in the Status Update.
- You cannot tag tiles with APCs. No cheating, you maint crawlers.
- Goal is now a coeff var so it can be modified in-game for debugging/playtesting purposes
- Simplified some list checks for gang
- Trying to tag an invalid area will just error out and return, instead of the ganger spraying regular grafiti and confusing them

Moves most of the code from violin up to instrument and makes violin a child of it. (Guitar is a child of it as well.)
Fixes violins on Metastation and Box due to the repath, adds the guitar to both.
Changes the RPD to use the newer datum/browser ui, makes it so that it show's what you have picked and doesn't let you endlessly repick it.
Fixes my wonky check for bins/outlets/chutes on walls, also adds a changelog.
Undefs the defines in RPD.dm at the end of the file.
Changes the "Type:" label to "Category:"
- Reverted the boss icon back to use a B. I changed it for a different idea I had but I never went through with it but I forgot to change the icon back
- Price tweaks
- Increased pen cooldown to (15*Gang size)+45 seconds
- Promotion cost now counts how many times you bought that item instead of how many bosses you have, so you can't stockpile on cheap gangtools before promoting anyone
**Major Changes**
- Increased win condition to require 66%
- Added a switchblade. A relatively cheap and decently robust melee weapon for gangsters.
- Capped how much influence you can get every income at 50
- Limited gang spraycan use to 15
- Pistol cost increased to 30 Influence
- Promotion cost now scales to how many bosses you already have. The more bosses, the more expensive it will be. It starts off cheap at 20 influence now.
**Minor Changes**
- Tagging a territory now tells you what territory you actually tagged!
- Added an option to silence the verbose territorial updates you get from gangtools
- Capped how much influence you can get every income at 50
- Updated Centcom report on gangs
- Spraycans always show their inhands now, instead of only when uncapped
- Antag panel now shows how much influence each gang has
- Cleaned up gang code in the traitor panel

- fixes exploit in pandemic to avoid the bottle creation cooldown. 8031
- fixes chem grenade not getting to southwest side. 8019
- remove handle_env, /handle_random_events() and handle_blood at carbon level, identical to living level.
- fixes human bodytemp dropping to 20C in normal environment. (32.5C 90.5F when naked now)
- you now need both adequate headgear+suit to protect against pressure. (removing two defines)
- fixes alien hunter being immune to env fire in stalk mode (removing hunter/handle_env())
- fixes monkey not metabolizing reagents, also make larva metabolize them. 7108
- remove calculate_affecting_pressure from monkey level, simplification.
- refactors monkey's handle environment, no more handle_temp_damage proc, it's all in handle_env.Fixes temperature alert not showing for monkey.
- refactor monkey/handle_fire (similar to alien/human now.)
- replaces morphine with stimulants in adrenal implant. 8832
- refactor handle_breath_temperature.
- Gang mode changelog
- Recruitment doesn't cause an obvious seizure any more
- Removed reduced usage on territory spraycans
- Spraycans will notify you if the area you are spraying at is not a valid one for tagging
The coding isn't done yet, but the design is. So comment on the design while I smooth out the code.
tldr; Gang mode rewrite to follow my original vision: Slower and longer rounds with less deathmatching, and a resource both teams have to fight over
NEW OBJECTIVE: CLAIM HALF THE STATION AS TERRITORY
- Gang bosses can spawn special spray cans that can be used to tag areas
- Any gang member can tag areas.
- Gang tags must be removed before another one is placed in the same area
- Game mode no longer automatically ends when the boss dies. It now ends when either the station evacs, or one gang claims more than 50% of the station areas
- Boss can promote gangers into his lieutenants, which basically means adding more bosses
- Lieutenants can do anything bosses can except promote others to lieutenant
NEW RECRUITMENT TOOL: PENS
- Recruitment pens replace flashes
- Looks exactly like a pen. Stab people to recruit them.
- Recruitment is silent but obvious to the perceptive (Causes a brief seizure)
- Cooldown between uses that gets longer as the gang gets larger
NEW TOOL: GANGTOOL
- Replaces the recaller device. Can still recall the shuttle.
- Provides overview information about the gang (membership size, income amount and time)
- Can spawn pistols and ammo
- Can spawn additional recruitment pens
- Can spawn additional gangtools (For personal use, or promoting a single ganger to lieutenant)
NEW CURRENCY SYSTEM: NAME IS WIP
- Gangtools purchase items with new currency with the placeholder name "Supply Points (SP)"
- Supply points are collected every 5 minutes. The more territory a gang has claimed, the more points they get.
- Supply points are accumulated per-gang. Having more gangtools does not intrinsically give you more points to use.
