## About The Pull Request
cultists can now convert pets on their side. when you convert a pet, it
will become much more dangerous and obedient to you, it will also gain a
new dangerous AI. cultist pets will look for fellow dead cultists, and
revive them by dragging them to nearby revival runes and activating it.
if there is no revival runes around them then they will create their own
and drag u to it. u can give them commands to follow, attack, or to
create revival runes. they will also go around to crit non cultists so
cultists can convert them
they will also now feed on organs and blood for healing
## Why It's Good For The Game
adds a extra layer to cult, u can now command non-sentient pets to aid
you

players can now download their very own virtual pet through a new PDA
app. this pet is called orbie and u can interact with him in alot of
unique ways
happiness can be increased by regularly grooming ur pet, feeding him, or
u can arrange with other players playdates for ur pets, they can play
with each other and both their happiness will increase
u can get food from ur pet through ur pda, it will assign u a random
drop zone location in the station u need to go to, after which u can
obtain ur pet's food then ur PDA will spawn a virtual chocolate bar that
ur pet loves to eat. it wont assign u dropzone locations that are
restricted or hard to reach, however if the area it assigns u is a bit
difficult to get to, u can reroll the location after a small cooldown
u can also level up ur pet to make it gain new helpful abilities and
more cosmetic options. the main way to level up ur pet is by walking it,
so u can have it follow u while u are doing ur job on the station and it
will passively get exp. u get an increased exp modifier per step if ur
pet is happy and not hungry. At level 2, ur pet will gain an ability to
toggle lights and will also read outloud to u any PDA messages u
recieve. at level 3, ur pet gains a camera ability. u can command it to
take a photo afterwhich the picture will be saved directly in ur pda
u also have alot of customization options for ur pet!
u can change its color, name, gender, and u can make it wear hats! u can
unlock more hats for ur pet if u level it up further. these
customizations change ur pet's hologram appearance as well as its
profile picture on the pet network.
u can view how other player's virtual pets are progressing through the
pet network. each time ur pet reaches a new milestone, an update will
automatically be sent out on the network
if ur pet's milestones gets likes from other players, it will become
happier
this app also allows u to program new tricks for ur pet. U can create a
custom trick sequence, and change the trick's name. If u say the trick's
name outloud to ur pet it will do the sequence u programmed.
## About The Pull Request
Turns skeletons (the simple animal version) into basic mobs. This was
another incredibly simple conversion, since skeletons don't really do
anything but walk at you and beat you to death.
Because I thought it was funny, though, skeletons will now seek out
cartons of milk and drink them. Real milk will heal them for a
significant amount, but soymilk, being false milk, will deal them
grievous injury instead! Skeletons beware... I didn't add any other
sorts of milk due to limited ability with existing AI behaviors to
identify milk containers (they actually only look for the carton items).
Other than that, I've done some flavor adjustment for skeletons' attacks
- their effects and sounds will now suit the weapon they're actually
holding - for example, skeleton templars now actually use their swords
instead of slashing you with their horrible fingers. Along with this I
gave the basic skeletons a normal slashing sound, instead of the weird,
impactless hallucination sound they used to use for some reason. I never
liked that sound.
Finally, I've reflavored the spear-wielding skeleton mobs to "undead
settlers", following the naming of the corpses dropped by snow legions
as of #76898, rather than being named after an offensive term for Inuit
people. These skeletons do, after all, appear in settlements on alien
worlds.
To enable the flavor of milk drinking, I expanded the `basic_eating`
component to allow drinking rather than eating flavor, with a different
sound and its own set of verbs. This deletes whatever they drink from,
but c'est la vie.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Ticks 6 more entries off the simple animal freeze. While skeletons are
still extremely simple, being largely-identical mobs that only exist to
beat you to death, being basic mobs should make them slightly better at
this job. Also, again, I think it's really funny that you can distract
skeleton mobs with milk, or even hurt them.
## Changelog
🆑
refactor: Hostile skeleton NPCs now use the basic mob framework. They're
a little smarter, and they also have a slightly improved set of attack
effects and sounds. They love to drink milk, but will be harmed greatly
if any heartless spaceman tricks them into drinking soymilk instead.
Please report any bugs.

## About The Pull Request
- Deletes `spec_unarmedattack`
- Deletes `spec_unarmedattacked`
- Replaces `COMSIG_HUMAN_EARLY_UNARMED_ATTACK` with
`COMSIG_LIVING_EARLY_UNARMED_ATTACK`
- Replaces uses of `COMSIG_HUMAN_MELEE_UNARMED_ATTACK` with
`COMSIG_LIVING_EARLY_UNARMED_ATTACK`
- Fixes(?)(I've never seen this work) / Elementizes Monkey ability to
bite while handcuffed
- Monkey clever `attack paw` / `attack hand` thing is now handled the
same on the human level (via `resolve_unarmed_attack`)
## Why It's Good For The Game
Atomized from swing branch. I was really annoyed with these two signals,
this kinda unifies the behavior between living and human mobs (they were
already quite similar).
One thing of note is that this will make dis-coordinated humans use
`attack_paw` rather than `attack_hand`, so they'll bite people instead
of punching them. I'm not sure if this is what we want, if we wanna
tweak that before then I can by all means.
## Changelog
🆑 Melbert
refactor: Refactored unarmed attacking mechanisms, this means
dis-coordinated humans will now bite people like monkeys (like how
coordinated monkeys punch people like humans?)
refactor: Dis-coordinated humans smashing up machines now use their
hands, rather than their paws

## About The Pull Request
Wow we're finally here. This turns carp into Basic Mobs instead of
Simple Animals.
They use a variety of behaviours added in previous PRs to act in a
marginally more interesting way than they used to.
But don't worry there's still 2 or 3 PRs to follow this one until I'm
done with space fish.
Changes in this PR:
Carp will try to run away if they get below 50% health, to make use of
their "regenerate if not attacked" component.
Magicarp have different targetting behaviour for spells depending on
their spell;
- Ressurecting Carp will try to ressurect allied mobs.
- Animating Carp will try to animate nearby objects.
- Door-creating Carp will try to turn nearby walls into doors.
You can order Magicarp to cast their spell on something if you happen to
manage to tame one.
The eating element now has support for "getting hurt" when you eat
something. Carp eating can rings and hating it was too soulful not to
continue supporting.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Carp are iconic beasts and I think they should be more interesting.
Also we just want to turn mobs into basic mobs anyway.
## Changelog
🆑
add: Carp will now run away if their health gets low, meaning they may
have a chance to regenerate.
add: Lia will now fight back if attacked instead of letting herself get
killed, watch out!
balance: Magicarp will now aim their spells more intelligently.
add: Tame Magicarp can be ordered to use their spells on things.
refactor: Carp are now "Basic Mobs" instead of "Simple Mobs"
fix: Dehydrated carp no longer give you a bad feeling when they're your
friend and a good feeling when they're going to attack you.
balance: Tamed carp are now friendly only to their tamer rather than
their whole faction, which should make dehydrated carp more active.
Order them to stay or follow you if you want them to behave around your
friends.

Makes the code compatible with 515.1594+
Few simple changes and one very painful one.
Let's start with the easy:
* puts call behind `LIBCALL` define, so call_ext is properly used in 515
* Adds `NAMEOF_STATIC(_,X)` macro for nameof in static definitions since
src is now invalid there.
* Fixes tgui and devserver. From 515 onward the tmp3333{procid} cache
directory is not appened to base path in browser controls so we don't
check for it in base js and put the dev server dummy window file in
actual directory not the byond root.
* Renames the few things that had /final/ in typepath to ultimate since
final is a new keyword
And the very painful change:
`.proc/whatever` format is no longer valid, so we're replacing it with
new nameof() function. All this wrapped in three new macros.
`PROC_REF(X)`,`TYPE_PROC_REF(TYPE,X)`,`GLOBAL_PROC_REF(X)`. Global is
not actually necessary but if we get nameof that does not allow globals
it would be nice validation.
This is pretty unwieldy but there's no real alternative.
If you notice anything weird in the commits let me know because majority
was done with regex replace.
@tgstation/commit-access Since the .proc/stuff is pretty big change.

ELEMENT_DETACH is **not** a requirement to having `Detach` called.
Detach is always called when the element itself is destroyed.
ELEMENT_DETACH is a flag that when set, makes sure Detach is called when
the atom destroys.
Sometimes you want this, for instance:
```dm
/datum/element/point_of_interest/Detach(datum/target)
SSpoints_of_interest.on_poi_element_removed(target)
return ..()
```
This Detach cleans up a reference that would have hung if target was
destroyed without this being called.
However, most uses of Detach are cleaning up signals. Signals are
automatically cleaned up when something is destroyed. You do not need
ELEMENT_DETACH in this case, and it slows down init. This also includes
somewhat more complex stuff, like removing overlays on the source
object. It's getting deleted anyway, you don't care!
I have removed all uses of ELEMENT_DETACH that seemed superfluous. I
have also renamed it to `ELEMENT_DETACH_ON_HOST_DESTROY` to make its
purpose more clear, as me and a lot of other maintainers misunderstood
what it did,
---
An update to this, ELEMENT_DETACH *is* needed for anything that can
register to a turf, as turfs do not clear their signals on destroy.
About The Pull Request
Cows are now grazers, they love eatin' wheat and it even heals them if hurt. If they see it just on the ground, they might eat it all! Careful, botanists! While tamed, cows won't eat off the ground if they're busy ferrying you around.
FYI: this is going to conflict with #69247 and so thiss should not be merged until that is
Why It's Good For The Game
Wanted to add this with the original port of cows to basic mobs, didn't have the TECH to do so. Now I do, now it's done. I also wanted it ready for the future where mice and rats are ported, so they'd seek out cheese to eat. I also also think it's a neat way for a cow to heal.
