* A small pile of borg combat changes (#75819)
## About The Pull Request
This PR rebalances borg combat. It is first part of broader set of
changes that I talked about with armhullen, which was then discussed in
discord player project channel. Ultimately arm decided to rewrite the
complete rebalance and grab combat, but to help with testing, and to
measure reaction to that changes, I wrote this much smaller change, that
should be usable as a TMd test.
Main points that changed:
- Flashing cyborgs for the first time blinds them, and scrambles their
movement. Flashing them while they are blinded immobilizes them as it
used to, but still allows them to talk, and use radio.
- Emping cyborgs still turns them completely off, but the code behind is
_slightly_ changed, because of how utterly incomprehensible cyborg code
is
- Borg stunarm deals 60 stamina damage, costs 200 energy (SUBJECT TO
CHANGE AS SOON AS I DECIDE ON HOW TO), and applies confusion,
stuttering, and jittering.
- Robot consoles used by humans can now lock down only one borg at a
time, they exhibit increased power draw while doing so. The borg is also
informed of the location of the console. If left alone, the borg will
unlock itself in 10 minutes, to avoid leaving it permanently locked down
in some faraway place. If the console gets destroyed (or depowered), the
borg will get unlocked
- laser pointer only blinds borgs, without the paralyze component. If
you flash a borg blinded this way it will paralyze it, so comboing it is
possible.
- Throwing things at borgs slows them down
Not planned, but possible if testing shows its required:
- Changing borg health to malfunctions
- Whatever people convince me to add
- Portable lockdown solution for sec, or a way for them to do basic
check on borg.
- Usage of bucket/something else to restrict radio usage of cyborg
If you have ideas what would make this change better please use [discord
channel](https://discord.com/channels/326822144233439242/1113145741788065924),
or comments. Almost everything that I wrote here is subject to change,
as requested or suggested.
### DISCLAIMER
I had to change few functions in background of how borgs work. This WILL
have changes I couldn't predict, since some of them aren't linked in any
obvious way in code. I am aware of that, and will try fixing what needs
fixing when pointed out.
PS: Borg code is a nightmare
## Why It's Good For The Game
Borg combat sucks. It is absolutely binary, there is 0 capacity for
talking, because both sides fear losing in one click. Sec can't really
feasibly ask the borg to state laws while flashed, so their only
solution is to kill it and revive it.
- Turning most instastun solutions into less lethal versions should
lessen the pressure, since it reduces the chance that person that reacts
first survives.
- It causes minor reduction in traitor's capacity to emag borgs with
only a flash, but EMPs still hardstun, and they are plentiful both in
uplink, and in ghetto form, so that shouldn't be a problem.
- Since it allows borgs to scream for help while being flashed, it also
increases the potential of AI helping it, or at least noticing its
death.
- Lockdown console changes reduce its capability in completely turning
off malf ai, and leave it still highly capable of being an useful tool
in stopping emagged cyborgs.
## Changelog
🆑
balance: Flashing borgs requires two consecutive flashes to fully
immobilize
balance: Flashed borgs can speak
balance: Remote lockdown on cyborgs lasts 180 seconds
balance: Cyborg stun arm works like normal baton, and costs less energy

* service borg cookin fixin update (#76590)
## About The Pull Request
PR done for bounty:
https://tgstation13.org/phpBB/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=33988
borgs can now turn on stoves and griddles
borg click code has been reworked a bit to be closer to base mob, you
are now able to click on stuff within reach rather than just Adjacent
(might be buggy to introduce this? hopefully not. if anything we can
testmerge this), which lets us make the apparatus work to pick up stoves
on the range and such
Adds the Codex Cibus Mechanicus as an upgrade you can research in RnD
with the other service borg ones. When you use it it shows you the
cooking menu!
## Why It's Good For The Game
The service borg has the tools to prepare ingredients, but it can't
actually do anything with them, which severely limits it, only being
able to do slapcrafted foods.
The apparatus not working on items that are on top of stoves/griddles
seems to be just a bug with how cyborg click code is handled.

* Lavaproof tracks fix (#76258)
## About The Pull Request
There is an upgrade for mining borgs called lavaproof tracks. As the
name implies, it allows them to safely traverse lava. This PR makes the
tracks also protect from liquid plasma. Fixes#76107.

Liquid plasma is the Icebox equivalent of lava, it stands to reason that
something that protects against lava should also protect against liquid
plasma.

* Adds a Material Stack manipulation apparatus for Engineer Cyborgs, replaces the R-Glass tool (#74297)
## About The Pull Request
- Adds a new apparatus for Engineer Cyborgs that can pick up and
manipulate material sheet stacks. Once holding a stack, interactions are
passed to the stack.
- Sheets in the new apparatus will always show as single sheets while
held, regardless of the actual count.
- Removes the R-Glass tool from Engineer Cyborgs.
- Sabotage borgs have the same changes
## Why It's Good For The Game
Allows Engiborgs to repair or build with various materials, without
(further) destroying the concept of material economy.
The R-Glass tool, in my experience, is generally unused, as the RCD can
create R-Windows and that's the main use for the sheets. So the tool has
been removed to keep the Engineer Borg Toolkit from exploding. The new
tool can also pick up R-Glass, if a need for it arises.
## Changelog
🆑
balance: Engineer Borgs now have a tool to manipulate material stacks
(and also tile stacks). This replaces the R-Glass tool.

* 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.
alright here goes

* Refactors memories to be less painful to add and apply, moves memory detail / text to memory subtypes. Adds some new memories to demonstrate. (#72110)
So, a huge issue with memories and - what I personally believe is the
reason why not many have been added since their inception is - they're
very annoying to add!
Normally, adding subtypes of stuff like traumas or hallucinations are as
easy as doing just that, adding a subtype.
But memories used this factory argument passing method combined with
holding all their strings in a JSON file which made it just frustrating
to add, debug, or just mess with.
It also made it much harder to organize new memories keep it clean for
stuff like downstreams.
So I refactored it. Memories are now handled on a subtype by subtype
basis, instead of all memories being a `/datum/memory`.
Any variety of arguments can be passed into memories like addcomponent
(KWARGS) so each subtype can have their own `new` parameters.
This makes it much much easier to add a new memory. All you need to do
is make your subtype and add it somewhere. Don't need to mess with jsons
or defines or anything.
To demonstrate this, I added a few memories. Some existing memories had
their story values tweak to compensate.
Makes it way simpler to add new memories. Maybe we'll get some more fun
ones now?
🆑 Melbert
add: Roundstart captains will now memorize the code to the spare ID

add: Traitors will now memorize the location and code to their uplink.
add: Heads of staff winning a revolution will now get a memory of their
success.
add: Heads of staff and head revolutionaries who lose their respective
sides of the revolution also get a memory of their failure.
add: Completing a ritual of knowledge as a heretic grants you a quality
memory.
add: Successfully defusing a bomb now grants you a cool memory. Failing
it will also grant you a memory, though you will likely not be alive to
see it.
add: Planting bombs now increase their memory quality depending on how
cool the bomb is.
refactor: Memories have been refactored to be much easier to add.

* Refactors bar drink icons into datum singletons / unit tests them (#71810)
- Refactors bar drink icons.
- Juice boxes no longer have a hard-coded list of a bunch of reagent
types in their update state, and use a system similar to bar drinks.
- Glass and shot glass icon information are no longer stored on the
drink. Instead, they are now stored in glass style datums. These datums
store name, description, icon, and icon state of a certain container +
reagent type.
- Glass styles are applied via the `takes_reagent_appearance` component.
Glasses, shot glasses, and juice boxes have this component.
- This comes with support for being able to have drink icons from
different files, rather than requiring the drinks DMI.
- The britmug is now a subtype of mug.
- 1 new icon: britmug filled.
- Various small code clean-up around drink reagents.
- Unit tests icon state setups for glass styles as well as all `/drink`
reagent container subtypes.
- Splits up the massive `drinks.dmi` into separate files.
*Disclaimer: Much of the drinking glass datums were written via script
automatically, so there may be errors present.*
- Much easier to add new drink styles, much more modular.
- It is no longer necessary for new drinks to be added to the massive
`drinks.dmi`. People working with drinks in the future can simply add
their glass style datum and point it to their file wherever it may be.
- Expandable system. Adding a new type of reagent container that works
similarly to bar drinks but for different types of icons is a breeze.
- Ensures going forward no bar drinks have invisible sprites.
🆑 Melbert
refactor: Refactored how bar drinks set their icons. Juice boxes now use
