* Goliath basic mob (#76754)
## About The Pull Request
Converts Goliaths to the basic mob framework and gives them some new
moves because I can't leave things well enough alone.
I am planning on touching all the lavaland fauna and then maybe even the
icebox ones if I haven't got bored. The Golaith is the first because it
is iconic.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JNcKvMwT4-Q
Here's me getting killed by one as a demonstration. Despite my poor
performance I would contend that they aren't a _lot_ more dangerous, but
they are a little more dangerous.
The chief difference here is that they have two new attacks which they
will only use in response to being attacked.
If fired at from range, they will target the attacker with a line of
tentacles (it doesn't track you, so is easily sidestepped).
If attacked in melee, they will surround _themselves_ with tentacles, on
a longer cooldown.
Something else you may notice in this video: I discovered that basic
mobs are actually _too smart_ to be Lavaland fauna.
Typically (unlike their old form) a mob on our new AI system is smart
enough to attack someone _the moment they come into range_ rather than
only checking on predictable ticks, which would make using the Crusher
an essentially unviable prospect.
To counteract this, Goliaths now have a delayed attack component which
gives you a visual warning and short duration to get out of range before
they swing at you. I will probably put this on all mining fauna that get
reworked, it wouldn't be a terrible thing to put on other mobs to be
honest.
Other changes: The goliath stun is now a status effect with _buckles_
you to the tentacle as if grabbed, as well as its previous effects.
While this seems purely worse, any nearby helpers can now help-click on
you to instantly remove the debuff.
Experiencing the effect of a Lobstrosity Rush Gland makes you immune to
being grabbed by tentacles and an implanted one will automatically
trigger and free you if you are hit, and the explosive effect of
Brimdust also causes the tentacle to retract (although you'd need to
take damage for this to happen). Using the tools of the land, you can
make these creatures less threatening.
The ability for a Goliath to chain-apply the ability has now also been
reduced, it won't refresh its duration if you are hit when already
buckled.
When not occupied hounding miners, Goliaths will intermittently dig up
the asteroid sand and eat any worms that this produces.
I also made some new sprites for riding a Goliath because they've been
broken since the Lavaland mob update and also kind of were ugly before
then anyway:

Other code changes:
- I made an element which only lets an attached object move every x
seconds. This is because Goliaths are far too slow to use the speed
system (the glide just looks bugged as hell) but one thing I am invested
in when converting these is to make sure that they share the same
behaviour when player or AI controlled. This is disabled while you're
riding them because it was interminably slow.
- The Goliath tentacle trail uses a supertype object now shared with the
Meteor Heart which did something kind of similar.
## Why It's Good For The Game
It begins the process of moving one of our larger subsets of NPCs onto
the newer framework for NPC behaviour.
It adds a little bit more life to an iconic but slightly uninteresting
foe which mostly just walked at you slowly.
This PR contains a few components I expect to apply more widely to other
mobs in the future.
## Changelog
🆑
refactor: Goliaths now use the Basic Mob framework, please report any
unusual behaviour.
add: Goliaths learned a couple of new attacks which they will use in
self-defence.
balance: Help-clicking a miner grabbed by Goliath tentacles will
immediately free them, as will the effect of several items you can
scavenge from around Lavaland.

* Converts foxes to basic mobs. (#76662)
## About The Pull Request
As the title says, foxes are now basic mobs.
Foxes have a few new behaviors now, rather than the zero behaviors they
had before. Foxes, being very skittish animals, will flee from anything
that damages them. Additionally, they now have hunting behavior,
tracking down and killing anything of their size or smaller - regardless
of faction. They will not, however, hunt as long as someone is watching
them - which is to say, if any living humans are within 7 tiles of them.
Don't leave a fox and a chicken together while you're transporting your
grain to Lavaland! Also, make sure you don't leave Renault and Ian on
their play date unsupervised...

## Why It's Good For The Game
Gets rid of another simple animal. We grow ever closer to ascension.
Also, makes foxes a little more interesting rather than simply another
animal that does literally nothing. Renault will now flee from anyone
trying to kill her, for instance. Also opens up unique avenues of pet
murder if you want to make it look like an accident.
## Changelog
🆑
refactor: Foxes are more crafty now. They will run from danger, and hunt
small prey when no one is keeping an eye on them. Don't leave Renault
alone with Ian!

* Refactors chicks into basic mobs (#75663)
## About The Pull Request
On the tin. They have pretty much nothing in common with chickens, so no
subtyping. They are in the same folder to keep that whole thing tidy,
though.
Also includes fixes to `growth_and_differentiation` element that I made
for spiderlings, since some stuff was yorked without me realizing. It
pretty much worked flawlessly for these chicks otherwise though. It all
works fine now.
## Why It's Good For The Game
More verbose naming scheme (instead of "holo", we get "permanent"
chicks), smarter AI for chicks, knocks them off the list, etc. etc.
One thing that I wanted to do was to have chicks recognize their mother
(if they had one), but that would be way out of scope for this simple
port PR. I'll dwell on adding something cool for that in the future.

* basic mobs & co no longer indiscriminately perform close-range actions in the presence of obstacles. (#75687)
## About The Pull Request
Currently, we don't have any such thing as a general ai_behavior flag
for behaviors that need a check for if the current_movement_target is
within reach or not. We could fix it case by case by slapping a
`CanReach()` check in the `performBehavior()` definition of every
`ai_behavior` datum that warrants it, the general issue will keep
resurfacing as long as new behaviors are added to the game anyhow, while
there's a lot less copypasta involved easier to apply solution to
current and future instances of such issue.
Worth mentioning not all ai_behaviors with required_range of 1 have this
flag. Some are fairly innocuous, such as the follow command, some others
kind of handle it already in a more peculiar or complex way, which is
also an argument against making it a hardcoded heck for when the
required_range is 1 or 0.
This has been tested, though there are some rough edges and oddities
also unrelated to his PR that might have evaded scrutiny.

* Converts Spiderlings from Structures to Basic Mobs (#75001)
If I could've made this more atomic, I would have in a heartbeat, trust
me.
## About The Pull Request
Hey there. People were mocking us for having spiderlings still be a
subtype of `/obj/structure`. I decided to take a lot of time to fix
that. A lot of behavior it was implementing was just pseudo-mob stuff,
so it was actually easier than it looked for the raw conversion. A lot
of the footwork on spider stuff in the basic framework was already done
previously by Jacquerel, so that was pretty nice.
However, there are two new things that weren't introduced in the code
that had to be put in.
A) A component to handle growth and differentiation into a mob. This may
have already existed, no clue. If it does (and it's NOT
evolutionary_leap), let me know.
B) AI Behavior to handle seeking out a vent, entering a vent, and then
exiting out of a different vent. I may have gone a bit wacky on the
code, but it certainly works as expected (spiderling goes in one vent,
exits the other). Let me know if you can think of a way it can be better
optimized, but it was deliberately written to be very failsafey in case
shit goes yonkers.
One fundamental difference between structure spiderlings and basic mob
spiderlings (beyond the AI and not just a random prob() check for
movement) is the fact that they had vent movement coded in... but we
_really_ don't need stuff like that for our intents and purposes. If the
range turns out to be too OP in the current framework, we can always
change it up a bit, but also there's a _lot_ of vents we can end up in
the station (my testing had one spiderling end up in the AI sat to get
obliterated).
## Why It's Good For The Game
Spiderlings aren't structures! They behave like a mob should! Players
can possess spiderlings! They work seamlessly with differentiating into
a giant spider! Better AI! More room for people to add into this very
under-utilized buggers!
## Changelog
🆑
refactor: Spiderlings are now basic mobs, report any complete
weirdness/deviation from known behavior. They should be a lot more
intelligent now though.
add: AI Spiderlings are super fragile, but they're also super fast,
especially when they get into a vent. Once they're in circulation, they
could end up everywhere! Maybe in the armory, maybe in a locked closet
in maintenance. Be sure to be vigilant and splat them whenever you can
to save the station from a whole lotta heartache!

* Turns Deer into Basic Mob - They Freeze At The Sight of Vehicles (#74784)
## About The Pull Request
deers only show up in the BEPIS but i decided that they would be easy

i decided to dip my toes into coding AI behavior, and made them freeze

so do let me know if i glonked up anywhere and i can work on smoothing

pretty cool i think, neato interaction for when you do get them beyond

* Reduce carp migration devastation (#74608)
## About The Pull Request
I'm not totally satisfied with the amount of random destruction caused
by space carp wandering around, they should certainly be dangerous and
annoying but the random nature of their spawning and pathfinding means
that they would trap themselves in random rooms and then smash all of
the machinery in there.
Because they could attack any dense object they perceived as being in
their way that could result in venting random gas canisters, breaking
terminals, or I even once saw them destroy the supermatter cooling loop
by eating the thermomachines.
While the latter is pretty funny, arbitrary destruction of machines
simply caused because a fish teleported into a room without you knowing
isn't really very engaging and doesn't create very interesting stories.
This ultimately isn't meant to be a heavily destructive event and its
probability to run isn't tuned as if it is.
So, a couple of changes:
I reduced both the range and cooldown of the carp teleporting ability.
This means that AI carp can use it to pathfind past obstacles pretty
reliably and don't spend so much time smashing things, and also reduces
the chances of them getting the drop on you from a location you can't
see.
I also added a short click cooldown to carp travelling through other
carp rifts so people being teleported _to_ have more of an advantage
over people ambushing them (this was already true for the carp creating
the rift).
Additionally I added an optional whitelist to the "attack obstacles to
your pathfinding" AI script, and heavily culled the kind of obstacles
that carp will attack to be ones which are mostly replaceable. They will
still cause a mess and might even vent a room, but they won't smash
vital infrastructure.
Finally I replaced a couple of instances of `get_ranged_target_turf`
with `get_ranged_target_turf_direct` for better precision, and player
carp using the ability can now just click anywhere on the screen and it
will jaunt in that rough direction. With the reduced range, having to
click within its radius was pretty annoying.
With these changes I ran the event 10 times in a row on kilo and then
watched JoJo's bizzarre adventure for 90 minutes and when I came back
the level of destruction seemed pretty reasonable (aside from the big
hole where one of them ran into the supermatter and delaminated it, but
if there were players around that wouldn't happen).
## Why It's Good For The Game
This event was still just a little bit _too_ annoying.
If something destroys important machines it should have happened on
purpose via an event which was supposed to do that, rather than through
chance. Or preferably just be player-driven.
## Changelog
🆑
balance: Carp can't teleport as far, but can do it more frequently.
People who piggyback through their rifts will be blocked from attacking
for a short duration (the same as the normal attack cooldown).
balance: AI controlled carp will now be more selective about which
objects they smash. Player controlled carp (or carp directly instructed
to attack objects by people who have tamed them) can still attack
whatever they like.

* Audits usage of isanimal() vs isanimal_or_basic_mob() (#74029)
## About The Pull Request
There's a couple of open issues which fix places where only simple
animals were considered, but they are doing it piecemeal.
I decided to just go through every instance of `isanimal` or
`subtypesof(mob/living/simple_animal)` I could find, identify which
should also affect basic mobs, and fix them.
I left out the two others which are already in PR, I'm not stealing your
GBP.
Fixes https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/issues/68881
## Why It's Good For The Game
Consistency, mostly.
As far as I can tell all of these things _should_ have effected basic
mobs, but didn't.
This fixes a fair number of bugs but also they're bugs that nobody
noticed or reported.
There are a couple of places I did not update which will need updating
in future. These are:
- Dextrousness checks, because basic mobs don't have that yet.
- The Charge cooldown action, because frankly I couldn't tell what it
was trying to do.

* Station Trait: Spider Infestation (#73893)
## About The Pull Request
Hate having your cables eaten by mice? Nanotrasen have heard your
complaints and settled on a natural, _organic_, and eco-friendly
solution.
When this station trait is active, roundstart and event mouse spawns
have a chance to instead be replaced with duct spiders (both will exist,
it doesn't remove mice).
Duct spiders are largely harmless to humans, actively hunt other
maintenance creatures (such as mice), and have only one _tiny_ downside.

These mobs can also sometimes be spawned by a minor scrubber clog event.
As a side note, all spider basic mobs with AI (except Araneus) will now
try to automatically fill a small area around them with webs.
Also I made it so that mobs will ignore their random_walking behaviour
if they're engaged in a `do_after`, just in case.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Adds a little bit of variety to things which can slightly annoy you in
maintenance.
Spiders will automatically make places they live in look like spiders
live there.
## Changelog

the same AI, but I could not think of a single workable solution for
Basic Mobs which don't, or at least any which didn't come with a tedious
requirement to closely consider this niche item when programming any
additional AI.
Solution:
Change the default behaviour of the Lazarus Injector so this is not a
problem.
If all it does it make the mob loyal to you _and_ friendly to other mobs
which are loyal to you, then it's pretty easy because we can just use
the existing faction flags.
This is unambiguously a buff to using the item for nefarious purposes as
now if you revive four ice drakes and fulton them onto the station they
won't kill each other until only one is left, but is the only workable
solution I could really think of.
A lot of the very dangerous mining fauna can't be dragged so
transporting your army to the station still poses a question.
The alternate solution was just to replace the AI controller of any
emp-revived basic mob with a "zombie" AI controller, but this has the
problem that
A- It would now make things like cows and dogs into hostile creatures
when they previously weren't.
B- It loses any interesting behaviour the mob previously had and for
cases like Bileworms doesn't even make any sense (they'd try to walk and
just get stuck in place).
This ultimately leads to needing to make bespoke versions for various
mobs, which doesn't seem desirable from a maintainability standpoint.
As a side note it's still not a great idea to revive Bileworms _anyway_
as, their ability to move is tied to their ability to attack so once
they don't have a target they will just kind of sit there and if they
_do_ get a target their attempts to help you fight are difficult to
distinguish from attempts to kill you... but at least being able to
revive them makes it easier to make one sapient if you really want to
trap a player's mind inside a body which is incapable of leaving
lavaland.
Additional edit:
At Fikou's suggestion I've also added a sentience comparison proc to
`mob/living` and removed some code duplication which dealt with this
problem in the sentience/mind transfer potions, as well as added it to
the Dominate spell.
This device is meant to revive mobs and it shouldn't be required for
players to memorise an arbitrary list of which mobs it does and doesn't
work on.
Especially as the goal is eventually that all simple mobs should be
basic mobs.
This way of working is more intuitive, even if it is also stronger. I
was surprised when I used EMPed injectors and my "new minions" just
killed each other.
🆑
fix: You can now revive 'basic mobs' with a Lazarus Injector, such as
dogs, cows, axolotls, or carp.
fix: The same category of mobs can also now be effected by the Runic
Golem Dominate spell.
fix: Basic Mobs will switch target if they can no longer attack their
current target; meaning that if you become a Bileworm's friend it will
stop attacking you.
balance: Mobs injected with the Lazarus Injector while it is EMPed will
no longer attack other mobs revived by EMPed Lazarus Injectors.

* Makes some improvements to how AI can use JPS with movement loops (#72685)
## About The Pull Request
This PR makes some changes to how JPS is used in movement loops, as it
was causing a variety of issues:
- Fixed some code where JPS would fail because the path is still being
made. Instead, the movement loop will now wait.
- Reduced the subsystem wait for the pathfinder subsystem from 2 seconds
to 0.1 seconds. @ LemonInTheDark told me that this is better, I'll update
this with a better explanation once I squeeze it out of him :D
- Allows you to provide an initial path to the movement loop, in case
you pre-calculated one while making a plan.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Makes working with JPS a bit easier when making AI.

* Basic mobs don't become dense upon death (#72554)
## About The Pull Request
In #72260 what was previously a var became a flag, which was a sensible
change, however this inverted the default behaviour.
In virtually all cases we want dead mobs to _stop_ being dense, this
added a requirement for the flag to be present for that to happen and
then didn't add the flag to any mobs.
Rather than add this to every mob I inverted the function of the flag.
My reasoning here is that _simple_ mobs seemingly never required this
behaviour, basic mobs are probably going to need it rarely if ever, and
including it in `basic_mob_flags` by default seems messy and easy to
leave off when setting other flags (plus #72524 implies to me we want to
avoid adding more default values).
Setting this manually on each mob seems kind of silly as a requirement
going forward and I can't think of a way we'd unit test for people
forgetting.
For the same reason I did the same thing with the
`STOP_ACTING_WHILE_DEAD` flag I added to the AI controller in a recent
PR, the flag should denote unusual behaviour not the default.
## Why It's Good For The Game
It looks really odd when you're constantly shuffling places with dead
mobs, they're not supposed to do that.
It's tedious to add `STOP_ACTING_WHILE_DEAD` to every AI controller when
that should be an obvious default assumption.
## Changelog

fix: Dead basic mobs are no longer "dense" objects and can be stepped
on.

* New Mob [Garden Gnomes] (#72672)
## About The Pull Request
Garden gnomes can go into the ground when they stand still for a while.
If they are damaged and underground they will heal. If they are
underground they will also gain damage resistance. They can make people
trip when underground and deal some damage. They are available through
golden slime cores or you can collect them from cargo with an emag. If
one of them gets damaged they will all retaliate against the attacker.
They have a very realistic colour pallet based on online gathered data.
Depending on their colour pallets some of them have a very low chance of
spawning.
## Why It's Good For The Game
These new garden gnomes come with expanding the world building of space
station 13. These gnomes will add more variety to the game play and use
an interesting AI and behavior that interacts with the player.

* Basic mobs won't shoot walls / Basic mobs won't leave permanent bullet casings (#72494)
## About The Pull Request
Basic mobs using the generic ranged attack behaviour will now not
attempt to shoot a target which they can no longer see.
If they can still see you through a window that's fine because shooting
in your direction will probably break the window eventually, but a mob
knowing you're on the other side of a wall and pointlessly firing at it
isn't useful.
Additionally, adds a component to bullet casings fired by basic mobs
which deletes them after 30 seconds.

Here's a demonstration but sped up so they vanish after 5 seconds
instead.
## Why It's Good For The Game

We're not actually sure that's where these 75,000 bullet casings came
from (it's probably related to that pAI down there) but it's one way it
could happen.
Players with limited ammo leaving persistent bullet casings should
rarely be a problem, mobs have infinite ammo and so should not be able
to generate infinite debris. Having them just sort of disappear after 30
seconds is... less than immersive, but I feel like it's better than the
alternative.
You can attach the element to other things to thanos snap them if you
want.
## Changelog
🆑
fix: Syndicate mobs will no longer attempt to shoot you through walls,
building up massive piles of empty bullet casings in the process.
qol: Bullet casings from "weapons" fired by certain mobs will clean
themselves up after 30 seconds.

* Some tweaks to mobs running away (#72529)
## About The Pull Request
Mice running away behaviour wasn't working quite how it was supposed to
due to a couple of bugs.
First of all, the action was written as if it would `perform` every
tick, which it doesn't. This means that the code checking if you had
left line of sight didn't function, meaning mobs would continue fleeing
you even when they couldn't see you any more.
Secondly, mobs spent an awful lot of time pathing into walls which was
especially noticeable on mice who just would _not_ stop repeatedly
squeaking in a way that is kind of funny but gets old when you keep
hearing it. Now the pathing stops if it hits a barrier.
I'm not... totally fond of this solution because it has a few
assumptions baked in (that we want to try and path through doors even if
they're dense for one) but I can't for the moment think of a better
"path away from" implementation that isn't way more complicated, and
this doesn't really need to be complicated.
For good measure I noticed a couple of other actions weren't passing a
`source_atom` into `is_blocked_turf` so rats were potentially attacking
"obstacles" they could simply walk over.
Additionally a couple of places were setting
`controller.movement_target` directly instead of using the helper method
which has a minor risk of runtiming under certain conditions.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Mice will stop constantly screaming if they can see someone, and should
repath once they have a different escape route more quickly rather than
dedicating themselves to trying to burrow through an iron wall.
Rats won't bite at tables and racks they can just climb over.
## Changelog
🆑
fix: Mice won't try to path through walls to escape from sight and
constantly squeak.
fix: Mice will stop running away from you if they can't see you any
more.
