## About The Pull Request
There is not much to this.
We make `toggle_icon` register an additional signal
`COMSIG_ATOM_REQUESTING_CONTEXT_FROM_ITEM` upon which we set the
alt-click usage context, and just add the `HAS_CONTEXTUAL_SCREENTIPS_1`
flag to the parent ourselves as we don't want the other effects of
`register_context()`.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Having working screentips is helpful.

## About The Pull Request
Updates pipeguns with a brand new set of sprites. Also comes with pipe
pistols; plinkier versions of the pipegun.



Alters pipeguns away from utilizing shotgun/rifle ammunition towards a
bespoke junk round ammo. These shells are crafted similarly to current
improvised shells. This also removes improvised shells as a shotgun ammo
type. (these new shells aren't shotgun shells to begin with, they're
more like rifle bullets)
Crafting junk rounds produces an entirely unknown projectile in the
shell. You won't know what you get until you fire the gun. Almost in
every instance, however, the shot is beneficial towards killing things.
And they all do about the same amount of damage, so there is hopefully
never a round you didn't want to fire in the gun. Fighting someone with
a pipegun is usually predictable for what amount of damage it will do,
but any additional effects it might have is going to be an unknown
factor. They also brutalize borgs, which is a quality that improvised
shells had previously.
Pipeguns operate as they did before, and do roughly 40 damage per shot
with the majority of their ammo types (less than what they do currently
with .310). They only have one shell in the gun at a time, so every time
they're fired, they must be reloaded.
Pipe pistols do roughly 15 damage per shot, but hold more ammo than the
bigger pipegun. However, they're more likely to veer off-course.
There are regal versions of each of these weapons, and each are more
potent respective of their general rarity. Having one is going to be a
lot more noteworthy.
### Minor changes
Some more clothing items can carry pipeguns in their suit storage.
The icemoon hermit spawns with a heroic laser musket rather than a regal
pipegun (partially because it is too difficult for the hermit to get
more ammo for their gun, and also because the regal pipegun is a more
powerful weapon than previously)
## Why It's Good For The Game
It has been a few years since I added the pipegun, and time was never
particularly kind to it. There are alternative weapons now with
interesting mechanics of their own. The ammunition it used has changed
considerably. And it simply didn't ever feel like a 'junk gun' in a way
that was fun. The original mechanics added to give it that feeling were
just not fun to experience and were removed. So the pipegun has been
left as 'a shitty version of X'. Even the regal pipegun was, at the end
of the day, a shittier version of either a shotgun or cargo rifle.
It didn't feel right not having some kind of unique quality to using
these weapons that help them express themselves as unpredictable trash
weapons built inside of maintenance. But I expressly didn't want to make
it 'unpredictable' in a way that felt unfair on the person getting shot
either. So just giving it more damage was right out. As a compromise, I
reduced the overall lethality of the weapons while introducing a gimmick
that will appeal to those wanting to play out the role of a homeless
lunatic with a shitty homemade gun stalking maintenance. A 'chaos gun'
so to speak. Maybe that will appeal to people.
## Changelog
🆑
balance: Reworks pipeguns to use an unpredictable 'junk round'. You
won't know what you're shooting until you fire it.
add: Introduces a pistol version of the pipegun; the pipe pistol. It is
inaccurate and does significantly less damage, but more portable and has
more ammunition in the gun.
image: Updates the visuals of the pipeguns.
balance: Also improves the Regal varieties of these weapons. By a lot.
balance: More articles of clothing can be used to carry pipeguns in suit
storage.
balance: The Icemoon Hermit comes with a Heroic Laser Musket instead of
a Regal Pipegun.
remove: Improvised shells (the shotgun shell) has been replaced with
improvised junk shells (which don't work with shotguns but do work with
pipeguns).

Fixes several critical fixes for cyborg omnitools, surgical omnitools in

1. bonesetter omnitool can do compound fracture surgery now
2. omnitool butchering not properly disabled works (why didn't that
runtime. fucking dreammaker)
3. omnitool surgery_initiator not properly disabled
4. cautery in offhand not working
Fixes#82805Fixes#82868
Honestly I have now regretted for doing this kind of implementation at
the start. with how shoddily coded it is.
Planning to refactor cyborg omnitools, admin omnitool and ayys omnitool
(all have the same base of implementation) to be less snowflakey. but
that's for the future. and will take some time. This is a bandaid fix
for now

## About The Pull Request
(short, slightly outdated video compilation of the pirates)
https://youtu.be/j9BNFzcUSjc
Adds the **MEDIEVAL WARMONGERS** pirate gang, these pirates are focused
on causing chaos directly on the station with the use of melee weaponry
and swarming tactics.
they are not very smart when it comes to using technology, so they crash
in the station in an attempt to dock.
the pirates spawn with the NOGUN trait as they have never used guns
before but have access to dashing and the unbreakable component(small
heal burst upon reaching crit).
Warlord spawns with a better version of hulk(isnt removed upon crit and
can still do stuff while critted) and gigantism mutation by default
because ~~Chad Maximus~~ the other pirates require someone to run to
when stuff like flashbangs, batons or lasers are present. The warlord
spawns with a boarding axe which is a better axe that is good at
destroying things and a meat hook. **there's a total of 5 pirates.**
the pirate shuttle has:
- thermite barrel and 3 large beakers
- single weak claymore
- 3 extra military spears
- 3 kite shields
- 3 heavy bolas
- 4 regular bolas
- a stack of wood
- 2 stacks of mourning poultice (15 uses each)
- one burn medkit
**shuttle was made by striders18, big thanks to him**

things added:
- the new pirate gang
- a gamberson jumpsuit
- crude armor (good melee and wound protection but lacks on the rest)
- warlord armor (extreme protection at the cost of slowdown)
- a shortsword(bootleg claymore with 30 block chance and goes on belt
instead of back)
- military spear (better at throwing, better wounding, deals blunt
wounds instead of sharp)
- axe with better damage and demolition mod for the warlord
- a var to specify the name of the landing zone destination for the
assaultpod
- an assault pod targeting device item for the medieval shuttle
- a thermite barrel
- kite shields
- new hulk variant that doesnt go away when crit and has tenacity
## Why It's Good For The Game
I always liked the chaotic nature of the russian bounty hunters that
would come from their extra numbers and lack of tools. i thought
something of a similar idea on pirates would be good, a very direct and
scary militia rushing in with sword and faith would create some awesome

## About The Pull Request
Credit to Melbert for this idea.
Adds a new achievement awarded for carrying a boulder from Lavaland to
the Centcom Rescue Wing (via the Escape Shuttle).
If the boulder ever leaves your hands you will not gain the achievement.
If the boulder is not outside on Lavaland when you pick it up you will
not gain the achievement.
If you arrive at the Rescue Ship (via pod) you will not gain the
achievement.
If you drop the boulder
If the shuttle is hijacked and you do not arrive at Centcom you will not
gain the achievement (perhaps try hitting the hijacker with the boulder
you are not allowed to drop?).
If you arrive at Centcom via the Escape Shuttle but fail to exit the
shuttle holding the boulder (for instance, because a max cap bomb is
detonated next to you one second after the shuttle arrives) you will not
gain the achievement.
As the achievement is rewarded after the round-end report is generated,
you also will not be represented on the round-end report. This is a
personal struggle.
Also carrying a boulder slows you down. Dragging it already did, so I'm
not sure why carrying one did not. It feels like an oversight, and just
makes sense.
People rarely have any particular need to manually carry them anywhere
so this should be fine, right? 🙂

Making players do pointless and weird bullshit is the reason to have an
achievement system.

I think that it is funny.

## About The Pull Request
refactors clothing visors to use the same system, including masks being

welding helmets and such
adds a handler that updates all visuals in slots that an item has
obscured, each visual proc calls that so you no longer have weird shit
happening like having to hardcode a proc for heads where you need to
also update hair, mask, glasses everytime you put on an item
one thing here i could also do is make check_obscured_slots return the
HIDEX flags instead of item slots, because in 99% of cases its hardcoded
to be ran against specific slots (like eye code running it against the
glasses slot), but maintainers didnt seem to like that :/

## About The Pull Request
[This PR is a bounty requested by Ophaq and worked on by
Singul0.](https://tgstation13.org/phpBB/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=36013)
All of the following description in this PR is written by Ophaq as to
what this PR entails:
In this PR, the medical and engineering cyborg's tools are completely
reworked and condensed into an arm similar to the implant a carbon would
get. The tools are shown in a radial wheel around the character to quick
select what is needed instead of looking for it in a cluttered bag of
items. There are a few tools such as the blood filter for the medical
cyborg, as well as the welder, gas analyzer, and t-ray scanner for the
engineering cyborg excluded from the radial wheel. mostly due to their
inherent inmodularity


Each cyborg gets two arms in case the player wishes to have one on the
side to quick swap to, like having a scalpel in one arm and a hemostat
in the other on the hotbar for convenience or just preference. An
upgraded version of the tools has been added to each respective cyborg
upgrade node with somewhat faster action speed. The upgrade replaces the
arms and transforms them into the "advanced" version which is currently
the same sprite as the regular but just a faster and more efficient
version. The sprites for the surgical arm currently look good but may
need replacing later if someone who wishes to resprite them down the
line decides to do so.
## Why It's Good For The Game
As it currently stands, the medical cyborg's magical bag of gadgets
takes up a lot of your screen space and as a player who plays medical A
LOT, this was a MUCH NEEDED quality of life feature.
The amount of clutter in a medical cyborg's bag makes it in my opinion,
hard to see at the bottom of the screen and a nuisance to constantly
close compared to other models. My standard set up for playing medical
cyborg on the hotbar is 1=med analyzer, 2=usually a secondary surgery
tool or injector, and 3=another surgery tool. The flow of gameplay
during surgery ends up being surgery tool, hit 3 and drop it, surgery
tool, repeat or for efficiency using X to swap between the two surgery
tools I need on 2 and 3. This gets tedious especially after so many
hours of playing medical cyborg. I know some people may disagree, but I
think it would help a lot of help to speed up this flow of gameplay
during surgery and declutter.
By turning the medical cyborg's toolset into an omni-surgery tool which
functions like the surgery arm implant's radial wheel, this would
greatly declutter by like an entire row and make things easier on
medical cyborg players. Having a secondary in the bag helps with
efficiency for those players who like having an extra tool on their
hotbar and swapping back and forth would also improve efficiency and
make less swapping by hitting Z needed. Additionally with the upgraded
version as an optional upgrade in the mediborg tech, this also lets them
be on par with players who use advanced tools late game but not at the
level of alien tools where players would obviously out compete a
mediborg in terms of action speed.
Engineering models also benefit from this rework but at a slightly
different and lesser way whereas certain tools are excluded such as the
welder, due to the way they work on refill and the gas scanner and t-ray
scanner not counting as tool components are not included in the arms.
Syndicate versions of the engineering and medical cyborg also get these
arms, unupgraded.
## Changelog
🆑
add: Adds an omnitoolset for both engineering and medical cyborgs,
containing various basic tools
qol: Engineer and Medical module inventory space is now significantly
decluttered

## About The Pull Request
- Plumbing machinery begins processing only when wrenched & ends
processing when unwrenched. The machines plumbing component
`/datum/component/plumbing/process()` already does this but the
underlying machines processing proc for e.g.
`/obj/machinery/plumbing/synthesizer/process()` is always processing
regardless of its wrenched state or not. We can optimize this & save
power when unwrenched
- Fixes#82621. This adds plumbing machines `idle_power_usage` on top of
its `active_power_usage` ensuring it only uses power when actively doing
work, So if your factory is say full of reagents & cannot do any more
work it will use less energy i.e almost enter an stand by mode,

## About The Pull Request
Have you ever had to click the "Make" button a dozen times for a chef
making soup? I've also had it, so with this PR you can press the button
and everything will repeat itself as long as possible.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Makes life easier for chefs, now they can play chess on their cool
smartphone and craft food. (actually you can transfer it to other items
as well, see for yourself).
## About The Pull Request
I have received feedback that after the prior changes in #81971, the
gulag is still a little bit too subject to RNG.
The main culprit (as in my previous PR) is Iron being kind of cheap and
the fact that unlike the old Gulag you no longer have any way of
headhunting more valuable materials (everything appears as boulders on
your ore scanner).
My solution to this is wider than the last one of tweaking point values,
but also much simpler:
Just make every boulder you mine be worth the same amount of points
regardless of what is inside of it.
On the average test I made I could comfortably mine about 40-45 boulders
in ten minutes.
We'll make some adjustments to that rather than leaving 40 as the target
number;
Most players upon being teleported to the gulag are going to spend a few
minutes whining and bemoaning their fate instead of getting straight to
work. I had the benefit of being able to make sure my run started as
soon as a storm ended so I wouldn't need any kind of midpoint break. I
was also always the only person playing on my local instance, there
hadn't been any other pesky prisoners before me who had already mined
out all the nearest available deposits. And of course, let us not
forget, I am an MLG master league ss13 player who was surely performing
well above average.
So we'll round that down to: Each boulder is worth 33 points, meaning
you need to collect 31 boulders to complete a 1000 point (roughly ten
minute) sentence.
How do I ensure that every boulder is worth the same amount of points?
Well it's pretty easy.
One boulder = one material sheet. One material sheet = 33 points.
Simple.
"Now Jacquerel", I hear you not saying because you don't want me to know
about this thing you would prefer to do instead of hitting rocks
outside; "if I simply smash all of the tables and microwaves and botany
trays and bed in the gulag I can easily get like 65 sheets of Iron,
which is almost enough to buy the freedom for two entire people!"
Unfortunately I knew you were going to try and do that and the prisoner
point machine will only give you points for material sheets which have
been printed from the material smelter (well, any material smelter
actually but you should probably use the one in the gulag). You'll be
able to tell because if you examine a valid material sheet it will
mention a little maker's mark on it, which is absent in the beat-up iron
that you get from smashing furniture to bits.
Also glass is worth 0 points. Don't waste time digging up that shit.
As glass has had all of its point value removed, I have added a "work
pit" to the gulag to compensate. You can pull boulders out of this
indefinitely via effort, however it also stamcrits you every time.
It's not very fun to do this, but that's because I would prefer you to
go find the rocks out in the field instead. This is a last resort.
You can do this if there's no boulders left to mine or if you really
really really hate mining and would rather very slowly click on one tile
repeatedly to get your boulders instead.
As a tiny bonus doing this gives workout experience.
This isn't a totally ideal solution but I think it'll do for now.
## Why It's Good For The Game
What we want out of the gulag is:
- Something where officers can vaguely approximate an expected sentence
duration.
- A task that requires players to actually be spending that time doing
something to get out of here.
- Produces at least some amount of useful materials.
In I think roughly that order.
I hope this change accomplishes all three of these in a way that is
somewhat predictable rather than throwing darts at a board.
## Changelog
🆑
balance: Gulag mining has been rebalanced so that every boulder is worth
the same amount of points to mine for a prisoner regardless of what it
contains, and should be more consistent.
add: A vent which boulders can be hauled out of by hand has been added
to the gulag which you can use if there's nothing left to mine. It is
very slow, but at least it gives you a workout...

## About The Pull Request
- Adds Strong Stomach quirk.
- 4 points
- You can eat dirty food without risk of getting disease.
- You suffer less negative effects from vomiting. Vomit stuns you for
half the duration, and you lose half as much nutrition.
- Reverts https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/pull/76864 , integrates
its effects into Strong Stomach instead.
## Why It's Good For The Game
- Lotta people (namely Lizards and sometimes Felines with Deviant
Tastes) run gimmicks involving them being a gremlin person and eating
trash off the ground, and it's rather hard to accomplish this now since
it makes you a public medbay enemy # 1. This quirk should give them an
option to avoid that.
- Also (as mentioned in the title) both CDDA and PZ have this trait and
I can't believe we're missing it! This is something in
modifiable-character-traits/quirks-101.
- I moved the effects from #76864 to this quirk because 1. I thought it
was more fitting and 2. I thought the original PR was kinda wack for
what is (generally) a neutral quirk.
## Changelog
🆑 Melbert
add: Adds the Strong Stomach quirk, which allows you to eat grimy food

## About The Pull Request
Rewrites how alt click works.
Based heavily on #82625. What a cool concept, it flows nicely with
#82533.
Fixes#81242
(tm bugs fixed)
Fixes#82668
<details><summary>More info for devs</summary>
Handy regex used for alt click s&r:
`AltClick\((.*).*\)(\n\t.*\.\.\(\))?`
`click_alt($1)` (yes I am aware this only copies the first arg. there
are no other args!)
### Obj reskins
No reason for obj reskin to check on every single alt click for every
object. It applies to only a few items.
- Moved to obj/item
- Made into signal
- Added screentips
### Ventcrawling
Every single atmospherics machine checked for ventcrawling capability on
alt click despite only 3 objects needing that functionality. This has
been moved down to those individual items.
</details>
## Why It's Good For The Game
For players:
- Alt clicking should work more logically, not causing double actions
like eject disk and open item window
- Added context menus for reskinnable items
- Removed adjacency restriction on loot panel
For devs:
- Makes alt click interactions easier to work with, no more click chain
nonsense and redundant guard clauses.
- OOP hell reduced
- Pascal Case reduced
- Glorious snake case

## About The Pull Request
Nother bit ripped out of #79498
[Implements a get_cooldown() proc to get around dumb manual overrides
and empower me to optimize the findtarget
logic](7047d294dd)
[Adds modify_cooldown, uses it to optimize find_potential_targets
further](4ebc8cedce)
No sense running the behavior if we're just waiting on its output, so
let's run it once a minute just in case, then push an update instantly
if we find something
[Optimizes connect_range and
promxity_monitors](bcf7d7c5b3)
We know what turfs exist before and after a move
We can use this information to prevent trying to update turfs we don't
care about.
This is important because post these changes mobs with fields will be
moving a lot more, so it's gotta be cheap
[Implements a special kind of field to handle ai
targeting](80b63b3445)
If we run targeting and don't like, find anything, we should setup a
field that listens for things coming near us and then handle those
things as we find them.
This incurs a slight startup cost but saves so much time on the churn of
constant costs
Note:
We should also work to figure out a way to avoid waking ais if none is
near them/they aren't doing anything interesting
We don't need to do that immediately this acts as somewhat of a stopgap
(and would be good regardless) but it is worth keeping in mind)
## IMPORTANT
I am unsure whether this is worth it anymore since #82539 was merged. As
I say it was done as a stopgap because ais didn't know how to idle.
If not I'll rip er out and we'll keep the other
refactoring/optimizations.

## About The Pull Request
- Makes use of the byond internal optimization for `view` to speed up
aura healing a tiny bit.
- In case you didn't know, byond has an optimization for `view` which
speeds up iterating over objects in view if you provide it a type. This
use of a ternary (likely) prevented this optimization from kicking in,
and since worst-case we're doing view(7) it can add up.
- Test case: 2 staff of Ascelpius users surrounded by 15 humans and 15
random objects constant being damaged. ~8 minutes of testing.

## About The Pull Request
I heard reports that people just ignore the bioscrambler anomaly because
basically you just don't go into that room any more and depending on
where it spawned, that's no big deal.
That won't do.
Now the Bioscrambler will be attracted to the nearest sign of advanced
thinking life (read: nearest humanoid mob controlled by a player) and
will very slowly pursue them, travelling through walls and obstacles in
order to do so.
Also if it decides to target you, you will get a foreboding psychic
warning like with the dark matteor, because I think it's funny for dire
warnings to have multiple obscuring sources.
The Bioscrambler can be blocked with containment fields if you want to
make an overly-elaborate pen for it.
To accomplish this I refactored containment fields a little bit to apply
turf traits instead of making four different `locate()` checks for
different objects. Those files smell bad.
Oh also I moved the dullahan organs to the Bioscrambler blacklist
because they runtimed while I was testing it (see also: my other
incoming PRs) and I can't see any other reasonable way to fix it (they
expect to be in an abstract body zone...)
## Why It's Good For The Game
Anomalies are generally meant to be problems that you deal with or face
some kind of consequence.
Because the Bioscrambler isn't a timed anomaly with a dramatic
detonation effect, being spawned in a poorly-trafficked area could
simply mean that it isn't a problem to anyone.
Now it will make sure that it is a problem for someone until someone
gets rid of it.
I thought this solution was funnier than making it do something zany if
you leave it alone for 3 minutes.
## Changelog
🆑
balance: The Bioscrambler will now actively attempt to get closer to
living targets rather than chilling in a closet nobody goes into (unless
you trap it in a containment field).
balance: Because it can now travel through walls, the Bioscrambler will
no longer transform you THROUGH walls.

## About The Pull Request
Fixes the following input stalling exploits (maybe missed some):
- Changing GPS tag
- Setting teleporter destination
- Request Console Reply
- Various AI law board interactions
- Note, I used `is_holding` but technically this means these fail with
telekinesis. I can swap them to `can_perform_action(...)`, which allows
TK, but I noticed some places explicitly deny TK interactions with Ai
law boards. Not sure which is preferred.
- Borg Rename Board
- Plumbing Machines and Ducts
- APCs and SMES terminal placements
- Stargazers Telepathy
- Go Go Gadget Hat

Goliaths can't grab themselves with their tentacles and shouldn't grab
their riders either.
Now if you're riding a Goliath you simply can't be grabbed by tentacles,
they'd grab your mount instead (who is immune).
I didn't make this a carte blanche "your tame goliath will never
friendly fire you" because I want them to be able to do that when you
are not riding them.

## About The Pull Request
Clowns will now start with a box of 24 random long balloons and a
skillchip in their noggin allowing them to create balloon animals by
combining two of them of different colour together. Owners of the
skillchip also gain access to crafting recepies of balloon mallets,
vests, helmets and tophats, all created from long balloons. A crate of
long balloons, with a box of balloons inside, can be bought at cargo, in
case the clown runs out. I might edit this once I wake up, its 3 in the
morning right now.
Oh also, resprited how balloons look in inventory.

## Why It's Good For The Game
Balloon animals funny.
Silly features are my favourite kind of features, and this one's
open-ended too.
Someone on the coder chat recommended someone would do it that one time,
here it goes.

## About The Pull Request
Fixes#82440
This PR just creates a new macro, `LOWER_TEXT()` (yes the irony is not
lost on me) to wrap around all calls of `lowertext()` and ensure that
whatever we input into that proc will be stringified using the `"[]"`
(or `tostring()` for the nerds) operator. very simple.
I also added a linter to enforce this (and prevent all forms of
regression) because I think that machines should do the menial work and
we shouldn't expect maintainers to remember this, let me know if you
disagree. if there is a time when it should be opted out for some
reason, the linter does respect it if you wrap your input with the
`UNLINT()` function.

Adds anosmia quirk. Anosmia, also known as smell blindness, is the loss
of the ability to detect one or more smells.

Setting weight class of items is now done via `update_weight_class`.
I updated as many occurrences of manually setting `w_class` as I could
find but I may have missed some. Let me know if you know of any I
missed.
This is done to allow datums to react to an item having its weight class
changed.
Humans and atom storage are two such datums which now react to having an
item in its contents change weight class, to allow it to expel items
that grow to a weight class beyond what is normally allowed.

## About The Pull Request
Adds a new final objective option with a classic premise; the forced
battle to the death.
The concept is that the Syndicate will provide you with an implanter
tool you can use on an arbitrary number of crew members. Once you have
at least 6 (though there is no ceiling) you can activate the implants to
start the Battle Royale and broadcast the perspectives of everyone you
implanted live to the entertainment monitor.
After activation these implants cause you to explode upon death. If at
the end of 10 minutes, more than one person remains unexploded then all
of the remaining implants will detonate simultaneously.
Additionally, one of the station's departments (Medbay, Cargo, Science,
or Engineering) will be chosen as the arena. If after 5 minutes pass
you're not within that department (or if you leave it after that time
has passed) then you will be killed.
The Syndicate plan on both using the recorded footage to study
Nanotrasen technology, and also to sell it as an underground blood
sport, and so have employed a pirate broadcasting station to provide
colour commentary.
The implantation is silent, however it requires you and your target to
be adjacent and stood still for one and a half seconds.
Once implanted, it will occasionally itch and eventually signal to the
implantee that something is up, so once you start implanting someone
you're on a soft timer until you are given away. You can also implant
yourself if you want to do that for some reason.
Removing an implant from someone has a 70% chance of setting it off
instantly, but it _is_ possible. If the implant is exposed to EMP, this
value is randomised between 0 and 100%. You could also try doing surgery
while the patient is wearing a bomb suit or something, that puzzle is
for you to solve and I'm not going to tell you the answers. I'm sure
you'll think of ones I haven't.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Adds a somewhat more down-to-earth but still hopefully exciting and
threatening option which should let people mess around with the sandbox.
The mutual death element provides some roleplaying prompts; nothing
actually _forces_ you to fight apart from fear of death and it may be
possible to find other ways to survive, or perform some kind of
solidarity behaviour with your fellow contestants. Maybe you'll try that
but one of your fellow contestants just wants to be the last survivor
anyway. Maybe you'll pretend you're setting up some kind of mutual
survivorship thing in order to make sure you're the sole survivor.
Gives some people to watch on the bar TV channel.
The crew apparently love playing Deathmatch while dead so we might as
well enable doing it while alive.
Also I'm going to follow this up with a separate PR to remove the Space
Dragon objective and it felt like it'd be a good idea to do one out one
in

## About The Pull Request

The wreath has emissives. They don't do anything mechanically, they're
just for show.



## Why It's Good For The Game
I really like the whole thing with turning lavaland monsters into
trophies and cosmetics. Going down and coming back up looking like
someone who just crawled through a horror movie and took some souvenirs
is great. Stuff like the trophy accessories, bone and drake armor and
many of the various lavaland items have this quality, and it always
amuses me when a tech sees a dressed up miner and just goes 'holy shit,
where did you get that'?
Drip is the ultimate reward for playing miner. Nobody can tell me
otherwise. this is the endgame every miner craves. And I crave a goddamn
crown made from the broken remains of my enemies.
## Changelog

## About The Pull Request
Currently clowns (or any clumsy mob) can kill themselves with
holographic eswords by opening and closing them repeatedly. The damage
done is normal brute damage instead of stamina. This PR fixes that, and
adds some extra options to the `/datum/component/transforming` component
to adjust the amount of damage dealt to clumsy users. It also makes the
damage type inherited from the parent of the component.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Fixes#82398
Doesn't make sense for a supposedly harmless holographic esword to be
able to hurt someone, even if they're clumsy.
Also allows for more control over the transforming component.

inspections, and should no longer be a danger to clumsy crew members.

## About The Pull Request
This makes it so heretic influences are easier for heretics to click:
- Clicking a codex cicatrix on the turf of an influence will let you the
drain said influence, rather than having to click directly on the sprite
- Any right click on the turf of an influence will be redirected to the
influence. This really isn't as necessary as the first bit, but eh, why
not, doesn't hurt.

## About The Pull Request
this pr buffs non-sentient minebots a bit to make them more helpful with
the new arcmining changes.
Minebots now have a better overall AI, they will maintain distance from
enemies and shoot while running. they will also plant landmines while
theyre running away from enemies. these landmines are carefully
programmed by the bot not to trigger when any of its miner friends step
on it. u no longer need to feed minebots an ore to get them to listen to
you, as they now automatically listen to any miners around.
minebots can now repair damaged node drones

they also have a new autodefend feature, which makes them automatically
attack any mob that attacks its miner friends or the drone. They also
have some new upgrades!
First is the regenerative shield, this shield allows minebots to tank a
limited amount of hits before breaking. minebots will then need to wait
sometime before the shield re-activates.
Second is the rocket launcher remote control, this allows players to
direct minebots to fire anti-fauna missiles at their target
https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/assets/138636438/3ec3605e-8e11-4a31-acaa-1382bed98294
Also minebots are now highly customizable, you can rename them, change
their colors, or program their AI through their new user interface

solo players

## About The Pull Request
The unfathomable curio now only blocks when equipped to the belt slot,
and not when equipped in the hand.
The shielded component now no longer blocks despite not having a wearer,
and does not block if the wearer is not the same as the owner in the
``hit_reaction()`` proc.
Fixes https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/issues/82068
## Why It's Good For The Game
The curio was only blocking while in-hand, rather than how it should be;
in the belt slot. Now it does what it is supposed to.
On top of that, this fixes what I think has been a bug for quite some
time with shield_inhand just not being respected whatsoever with regards
to whether or not the component worked. It only really determined
whether or not you got the sprites added/removed, but didn't factor into
the blocking ability whatsoever.

## About The Pull Request
Wisdom Cows can now be milked for a random reagent (excepting the
randomly generated reagent blacklist).
Also I changed it to say `you milk the cow` instead of `you milk the
udder` because the latter is stupid.
## Why It's Good For The Game
My experience is that people totally ignore this event when it occurs,
which is _fine_ when we have so many events and they don't all need to
be high impact but I think someone discovering that you can milk the cow
for cognac or meth or something could add something to a round.
I want people to bicker over ownership of the cow, basically.
If the reagent is annoying you can simply speak to the cow to receive
its wisdom and it will disappear.

Alright instead of piggybacking off the departmental/non-departmental
distinction and prevent ourselves from constantly abusing the cargo
budget in order to achieve the very-specific effect of not wanting
players to abuse this card in certain contexts let's just leverage the
framework and expand it so that we can snowflake for admin/`holder` use
cases in stuff like debugging code on a local server while preventing
some player from stealing it off a newbie admin and immediately wrecking
the economy (although it is funny).
## Why It's Good For The Game

## About The Pull Request
Three changes to ghost orbit popups. Let's check them one-by-one.
First off -- The obsession awakening and blob host midrounds now have a
ghost popup when summoned via Dynamic. They already have them when
summoned by a random event roll, so this is mostly just bringing the two
different spawn methods in line with each other. None of the other
midround dynamic picks (autotraitor, revs, etc) have had this added,
because they're less focused on spectacle and require more mystery to
function properly.
Second -- The electrified railings on the tram no longer notify ghosts
every time someone gets shocked. Electrocute_act is called on anything
that passes by it, and the popup would be thrown regardless of whether
or not they've "fallen in the path of an oncoming tram" or not. Making
it check if the electrocute_act actually successfully stunned a player,
and that they're about to be hit, would probably require an unwieldy
rewrite to the behavior that I'd rather not resort to. I brought this
helper call into this world, and now I'm taking it out.
Lastly -- The supply pod random event can now be properly jumped to.
Originally, it would track the landing indicator, which would delete
almost immediately and leave an un-orbitable popup on your screen. Now
you jump to the landing zone, regardless of when you click the toast
popup.
This is really long PR body for such tiny changes please don't think
this is anything more than it actually is.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Minor improvements to some ghost orbit popups, because Observers are
players too!
## Changelog
🆑
qol: Dynamic midrounds "Obsession Awakening" and "Blob Host" now have
ghost orbit popups, so you can see them happening in real time.
qol: There is no longer a ghost orbit popup for players being shocked by
an electrified tram rail.
qol: The Stray Cargo orbit popup no longer has a half-second window to
orbit before it becomes useless.
