## About The Pull Request
Added secondary objective lockboxes to bitrunning. These pull from a
list of secondary objective loot on the domain, with a limited quantity
of items. Once there are no items left to pull, the secondary objective
disappears. If multiple secondary objective markers are placed, they
will be placed until all markers have been used, or all the items in the
loot pool are already spoken for.
To support this functionality, adds SSbitrunning, which stores all
domains as instances, instead of checking the hardcoded types as
previously. SSbitrunning manages listing domains for the quantum
console, and rolling secondary loot.
As an example of this functionality, added a side path to Glacier Grind
with a polar bear and some loot.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Secondary objectives give mappers ways to encourage players to venture
into a wider range of domains by offering non-trivial loot beyond the
fluff items given in the main caches. The absolute limit on the number
of items available ensures these items can't be farmed.
As well as supporting secondary objectives, SSbitrunning allows for
future support of features relying on mid-round modification of domains,
for instance adding custom domains.

## About The Pull Request
Reopened#78997
Larger patch for bitrunning that addresses a few issues.
- Two new antagonists: cyber tac and netguardian
- Quantum server emag opportunity
- Modular mob packs: Like random spawners, but for groups
- Antag spawning fixed: vdom antags now have up to a 10% chance to spawn
based on domains loaded
- Virtual domains are no longer all fullbright by default, only the
outdoorsy ones
- Actually deletes legion map file, since it was removed in #79424

The netguardian prime
The glitch effect - this mob is being mutated
Cyber tac (t2 antagonist)

## Why It's Good For The Game
- Bitrunning antagonists are so incredibly rare that it's underwhelming
to play as one for the solid second they offer if you even get the role
- Bitrunners had basically no traitor route to follow, they became
assistants with black outfits
Fixes#79465
<details>
<summary>More info</summary>
Bitrunners don't have any type of traitor options. If they're made into
traitors, there's nothing bitrunner related they can do, and their
access is particularly bad so it's like they're a worse assistant. I've
coupled this with the bitrunning antagonist system, which is now
fixed.\. Bitrunners can now attempt to coax these entities to come onto
the station, however they are not given any form of allegiance for doing
so (and are quite counterable).
Previously, vdom antagonists relied on so many factors to spawn that it
basically wouldn't happen. Now, it runs on the server each time there is
a map loaded, with increasing probability as the round progresses. This
builds up the list of spawnable antagonists, of which two are new,
including an entirely new giant mech megafauna. This is the first
"megafauna-esque" basic mob in the game. Its AI is bad, it's really only
meant to be player controlled, but this does mean an admin can spawn
them. Being mech, they are very counterable with ion rifles and the
like.
Several refactors, rewrites, and overall bug fixes are included in this
PR.
Lastly, I added a framework for making bitrunner maps more random, the
modular mob spawning system, which works in conjunction with random
crate locations.

🆑
add: Bitrunning Patch 1 features a host of changes!
add: Added randomized mobs to virtual domains, which will be indicated
with a unique icon.
add: New emag interaction with the quantum server. Antags will spawn
more frequently, and they can hack themselves onto the station. You have
been warned.
add: Both living and dead players can now see which mob is going to
spawn an antagonist in the vdom.
add: Two new vdom antagonists: Cyber Tac and the NetGuardian. These
unlock at specific thresholds.
balance: You can no longer stack copies of the same ability with
bitrunning disks.
balance: Some of the disk items have been replaced with stronger
versions.
fix: You can no longer spy on crew using the advanced camera console on
syndicate assault.
fix: Fixed the spawning mechanism of virtual domain antagonists. You
should now have a chance of playing as one. This chance increases as
more domains are completed.
fix: Vdom antagonists shouldn't spawn at the end of the run any longer.
fix: The preference for vdom antagonists has been changed to factor in
the new types. Check your preferences!
fix: The quantum server will now show its balloon alerts to all
observers.
fix: Random domains should be fully random again.

## About The Pull Request
Atomized #78997
Broke up duplicate signal usage - though they do the same thing, this is
convention & it makes it easier to debug
Removed custom alert subtypes in favor of just setting values directly
Removed some unnecessary vars like the console ref from the server
Since I'm just copying this over, it has added exam text for net pods,
which fixes an issue reported to me in Discord
## Why It's Good For The Game
Code improvement
## Changelog
🆑
add: Added some clarity to the range of netpods (4 tiles) in their exam
text.
