For everything in this PR working at the same time, watch this video!
Alright, from the top:
Sinks now need plumbing to pump out liquids.
All sinks now has a demand-only plumbing pipe face the opposite direction of the sink itself. A standard iron sink will hold 100 units of water, and must be constructed from a sink frame. To complete the frame, a new stock part, the water recycler must be applied to the frame. Once the sink is constructed, it will only hold those 100 units of water until new water is piped in.
This however doesn't extend just to water, as a result. Any reagent can be piped into the sink, and will be used 5 units at a time per use. This means water isn't just an infinite resource, and will need to be resupplied to the station if, somehow, you're using a metric ton of water somehow.

Showers now need plumbing to wash you off.
Want to dispense reagents faster on your Patients Victims Friends Coworkers? Well, you may also construct a shower frame, in a similar fashion to a sink frame, and pipe in your own reagents into the loop. The shower drains reagents much faster than the shower, and also preforms vapor and touch reagent reactions, resulting in a constant stream of chemicals being processed. This can lead to horrible situations, like a chemical heater hooked up to a vat of cooking oil being pumped into a shower.
Additionally, showers will display the reagents they're pumping out visually based on the color of their chemical contents. As a result, dangerous or unique showers are going to look noticeably different if their contents are dangerous looking.

A safe shower.

A very unsafe shower.
Wait what was that bit about cooking oil?
So, reagent dispensers, like water/fuel tanks, Virus Food, Cooking Oil Vats, Pepperspray, and the like, can now be converted into a stationary tank of reagents by using a sheet of metal on it, allowing it to behave as a simple supply of their respective contents, and can be pumped into a plumbing network. This means rolling water tanks can be used to resupply sinks and showers, as well as allow for inventive uses of otherwise unused chemicals located all around the station. Pump welding fuel into a resupply line to fight a blob! Pump pepper spray into the dorms showers! Create a deep fryer shower! The possibilities are LIMITED (Because we have very few reagent dispensers)! Still, this will prevent sinks and showers from being completely unfix-able should all the water run out, as cargo can purchase many of these chemical tanks at will.
Hydroponics is now also plumbing enabled.
So there I was, thinking, have I gone mad? Is the barking I hear in my noggin my own dogs rattling and raging against the eternal ocean tide, or are these the hounds of tindalos come to finally rip me to shreds within the sea of causality?
The answer to this is quite simple: I added plumbing simple-demand components to hydroponics.
Now, the trays will accept a pumping input, which can provide the plants themselves a reagent input for their nutrients, and SHOULD (current not fixed yet) also contribute to refilling the trays water. As a check to this horrible decision, there are very few plumbing chems that don't suffer from some kind of downside if exclusively pumped into the trays, so this should be done delicately and with forethought applied, or you'll have a row of plants with dead stats because they OD'd on ammonia.

Holy damn why are you doing this
I'm thinking this pr is probably in need of some serious trimming and will probably be closed as a result of the need to atomize this down, but this way I can start to get some feedback and ideas on which aspects would be better suited towards the current design direction of plumbing/bio-chem/reagent heavy jobs. As far as I'm aware, this is all in accordance with the relevant design docs, but this way I'll know for sure 🤷♂️
To-do before being 100% sparkly and clean
Fix hydroponics trays adding water to the nutrient reagents slot (NOT A TRUE FIX, SEE COMMENTS BELOW PLEASE)
Make disconnected sinks/showers slowly regenerate water so that a stationwide plumbing net isn't required so Anturk doesn't snap my kneecaps off
Make water/fuel tanks use their snowflaked stationary tank sprites instead of the custom overlay version
Yeet out the existing psudo-plumbing from hydroponics
Why It's Good For The Game
We've discussed adding plumbing into the game for forever now, and with all the new and tangentally related plumbing content we have, almost everything we have now perfectly enables servers to properly create a station-wide plumbing network.
Sinks and showers provide an infinite supply of water all shift long, and since they can be produced with any material, anywhere, practically for free, that was the first and foremost reason why I made this PR, to make water slightly more precious on station, to justify the 20+ water tanks mapped across every station. Plus, no more meatsink spam in the middle of the hallways.
Hydroponics has a built in feature that was intended to work similar to plumbing, before we had plumbing, for sharing resources/water, but it was pretty rough and is still exceptionally difficult to make look very pretty on live servers. By integrating them with actual plumbing pipes, this enables one step closer to integrating chemistry and botany to merge going forward, and give them an incentive to include each other in their supply chains each shift.
On the reagent tank conversion, That's just an interesting feature I felt the need for while testing everything else, and found pretty great success in. Being able to pipe in large supplies of a single reagent that ordinarily would just sit on a wall or in mait somewhere proved extra useful, and would be beneficial for refilling plumbing heavy areas like bathrooms/medbay, etc.
Automatic glide size adjustment based on move delay.
Essentially a port of https://github.com/yogstation13/Yogstation/pull/8132 but that was mostly my code with some fixes.
Why again? well it turns out the recent byond fixes to glide size actually worked and solved the issues that were unsolvable.
https://file.house/0B3u.mp4
Glide size no longer incorrectly scales at fps, so it works as intended at any framerate with the only stuttering being normal byond suck stuttering.
Made a few changes to gunpoints and some related mechanics while tidying up and adding docs. Here's a quick list
-Execution (point blank help intent shot aimed at the mouth) and gunpoint shots now apply their bonuses to every pellet fired rather than only the first, generally making them gushier. They also buff wound power as well as damage
-You can no longer punch yourself while holding someone up to trigger the charged shot
-You can no longer purposely fail executions and gunpoints with pax or whatever to endlessly spike the damage in a loaded round
-Attacks with extremely high wounding power can now outright dismember limbs regardless of mangled status. The threshold is high enough that it mostly applies for admin edited weapons or execution shots with shotguns (or people with the frail quirk!)
-Piercing wounds make further wounds a bit easier to apply to give them a bit more power
-Hellguns now cost 2250 credits instead of 2000 to make them a bit harder for random crew to get
-Adds special bouncy L6 rounds for admins to use to bounce off anything and everything en-masse
Also as a minor note
Projectiles with no trajectory (meaning they were likely spawned in manually) now qdel themselves on bumping something, rather than runtiming helplessly
plastitanium walls now smooth with windows
fixes airlocks not having a smoothing group, now plastitanium/titanium walls will smooth with the
fixes plastitanium walls not smoothing with syndie walls
Adds SIGNAL_HANDLER, a macro that sets SHOULD_NOT_SLEEP(TRUE). This should ideally be required on all new signal callbacks.
Adds BLOCKING_SIGNAL_HANDLER, a macro that does nothing except symbolize "this is an older signal that didn't necessitate a code rewrite". It should not be allowed for new work.
This comes from discussion around #52735, which yields by calling input, and (though it sets the return type beforehand) will not properly return the flag to prevent attack from slapping.
To fix 60% of the yielding cases, WrapAdminProcCall no longer waits for another admin's proc call to finish. I'm not an admin, so I don't know how many behinds this has saved, but if this is problematic for admins I can just make it so that it lets you do it anyway. I'm not sure what the point of this babysitting was anyway.
Requested by @optimumtact.
Changelog
cl
admin: Calling a proc while another admin is calling one will no longer wait for the first to finish. You will simply just have to call it again.
/cl
Moves all opacity var manipulation to a proc which sends a signal.
light_blocker element for movable opaque atoms made, which tracks its movement and updates the affected turfs for proper lighting updates.
has_opaque_atom boolean replaced by the opacity_sources lazylist to keep track of the sources, and a directional_opacity which serves a similar function but also allows for future expansion with on-border opaque objects (not yet implemented).
Some opacity-related sight procs optimized as a result of this.
Some variables moved to the object's definition.
A define or two added into the mix for clarity.
Some code cleaning, like turning booleans into their defines.
One file renamed for clarity.
Changelog
cl
balance: Mechs no longer block sight. It's a non-trivial cost for the lighting system with little to no gain.
/cl
all living spawners in corpse.dm are now in ghost_role_spawners. I hate having to search two different files to HOPEFULLY find which ghost role I need to edit.
Added a disclaimer about giving guidance or at least stationstuck component to stuff so this doesn't happen again
Cleaned up stationstuck. Man, I know I made this, but damn I did kind of a shit job
bitflag list construct added: an associative list of bitflags for cheap and quick element comparison between two lists using the same system.
canSmoothWith list turned into a bitflag list.
smoothing_groups list added to substitute the type path list.
smoothing procs turned into atom procs, refactored and optimized a bit.
smooth directions redefined in order to fit in 8 bits for a future smoothing system
some variable names changed, foreseeing a second smoothing system
SMOOTH_OBJ flag added, for things that need to scan turfs for smoothing. The old locate() optimization has the risk of returning false negatives by finding a child and returning null while there might be one of the wanted type as well, as it doesn't match the type exactly.
SMOOTH_TRUE and SMOOTH_MORE condensed into SMOOTH_CORNERS. The old behavior can be replicated using smoothing groups without loss.
Does very minor code cleanup.
Processing-wise didn't find a noticeable difference. The system loses on init a bit by setting the bitflag_lists, and by scanning whole turf contents for object smoothing (increasing accuracy), and gains by making less checks per target to smooth, through the same bitflag_lists.
Memory-wise there should be a small improvement, given that on the old system we had 63512 canSmoothWith lists (a few typelists, most unique), and on this new system canSmoothWith + smoothing_groups are both bitflag_lists from the same pool, totaling 46 in number.
Could be tested a bit to see if I missed any icons not properly smoothing.
Rewrites the asset_cache system to handle sending assets to a CDN via a webroot.
see https://github.com/MrStonedOne/tgstation/blob/asset-cdn/code/modules/asset_cache/readme.md
Fixed a lot of bugs with assets, removed some dead code.
Changes:
Moved asset cache code to transport datums, the currently loaded one is located at SSassets.transport, asset cache calls made before the config is loaded use the simple browse_rsc transport.
Added subsystem call for when the config loads or reloads.
Added a webroot CDN asset transport. assets are saved to a file in a format based on the file's hash (currently md5).
Assets that don't use get_asset_url or get_url_mappings (such as browser assets referred to by static html files like changelog.html or static css files) can be saved to browse_rsc even when in cdn asset mode by setting legacy to TRUE on the datum returned by register_assets
Added a system for saving assets on a cdn in a hash based namespace (folder), assets within the same namespace will always be able to refer to each other by relative names. (used to allow cdn'ing font awesome without having to make something that regenerates it's css files.).
The simple/namespaced asset cache datum helper will handle generating a namespace composed of the combined md5 of everything in the same datum, as well as registering them properly.
Moved external resource from a snowflake loaded file to a config entry, added it to resources.txt
To ensure the system breaks in local testing in any situation that wouldn't work in cdn mode, the simple transport will mutate the filenames of non-legacy and non-namespaced assets and return this with get_asset_url.
Simple transport's passive send of all roundstart assets to all clients is now a config that defaults to off. this is to break race conditions during local testings from devs accidentally relying on this instead of using send() properly.
cl
refactor: Interface assets (js/css/images) can now be managed using an external webserver instead of byond's one at a time file transfer queue.
admin: Adds admin verb toggle-cdn that allows admins to disable the external webserver asset transport and revert to the old system. Useful if the webserver backing this goes down (thanks cloudflare).
config: New config file, resources.txt, (must be loaded by an $include statement from the main config)
server: The external_rsc_urls.txt config has been moved to the main config system.
/cl
Porting notes:
Interface webpages must refer to their assets (css/js/image/etc) by a generated url, or the asset must register itself as a legacy asset. The system is designed to break in localtest (on simple/legacy mode) in most situations that would break in cdn mode.
Requires latest tgui.
The webserver must set the proper CORS headers for font files or font awesome (and other fonts) won't load.
/tg/'s webserver config: https://gist.github.com/MrStonedOne/523388b2f161af832292d98a8aad0eae
Adds an immobilized trait.
Adds procs for several variable changes so we can respond to their events.
Adds some signals for said variables changing.
Need to turn the variation in number of usable legs and arms (get_num_legs() and get_num_arms()) into events we can respond to, but they are pretty annoying to do so. Probably for a different PR.

Defined all the existing light_color values.
Moved their definitions to colors.dm
Made white the default color. It was so already, but that was very obscured.
Moved the atom light-related variables to the atom definition.
Wrapped changes to variables such as light_color into procs that report the event through signals.
Moved the light_on variable to the atom level, also adding a signal for its changing, to represent toggling lights.
Cleaned up a little bit of code in where new variables were defined before redefinitions.
This is all atomization to reduce changes in #52413
None of this affect gameplay at all, it's all code cleaning and refactoring.
There's more colors to standardize, a search for color = will find lots of targets, and I see little need to have both the LIGHT_COLOR and COLOR patterns, but I don't want to make this PR bigger than it already is.
