* Orbit is now less reliant on Animate(), for most ghosts this means 36 calls to Animate, vs the previous INFINITE, for those of you with potato computers, this should ease the pain and crashing.
* Orbits can now be something different to circles!
* Ghosts Byond Members can now choose between orbits! (Circle, Triangle, Square, Hexagon)
- Fixed bugs with monkeyize/humanize: 7803 (humanized monkey nobloodtype)
- Fixes 9298 monkeyed ling have troubles humanizing themself (already fixed?)
- Fixes despawning clothes when monkeyizing. 11855
- Replaced check_dna_integrity proc by simpler has_dna proc when required.
- created set_species() proc
- fixed space retrovirus not transfering SE (despite having a domutcheck()). Still need to check if it needs a name = real_name.
- I renamed mecha/var/dna to dna_lock to avoid confusion
- I renamed an armor var in a species proc to armor_block to avoid confusion with species/var/armor.
- I removed many if(dna) checks in lots of files.
- I removed duplicate defense procs between human/proc/X and dna.species/proc/X since dna is now always set.
- Anatomic panacea from changeling removes alien embryo correctly. 6247
- Fixes runtime when trying to put dna-less brain mmi into a dnalocked mech.
- Removed carbon/var/list/features, we now only have dna.features and prefs.features
- Remove hulk mutation from lizards and other species (Fixed 6413); only real humans can acquire hulk. (less work on sprites for each ones, fixes lizard tail not in hulk color)
- Fixes cloning not setting up correctly dna UE and dna.real_name
- I fixed the issue with sucked+cloned ling being unable to absorb
- I fixed issue with changeling proc checking if they have the dna already not working.
- Fixed 4095, low health hulk with DAA getting stuck in loop of acquiring/losing hulk.
- I added a second layer for mutations to differientate mutations that go below and above the body layer (Fixes 7858)
- Fixes 10048, the transform to initial appearence button was fucking up the dna.

Adds a fourth mob size "MOB_SIZE_TINY" to differentiate corgi size and mouse size. (used in bear trap code)
Rewrites beartrap/Crossed() to have less istype checks.
Adds a flying var to simple animals (used in bear trap code)
Makes pulling update in living/life.dm() to fix pulling not stopping when you're incapacitated.

* NPCPool will co-ordinate and organize all SNPCs, making them stronger and more intelligent.
* SNPCs can use the botPool system to co-ordinate and delegate with each other.
* SNPCs have been given factions to allow interoperability between certain types of SNPCs.
* Bots (machinery/bot) can use the system too for basic help and coordination.
Holidays are now actual datums with procs and vars and everything.
Holidays run a proc called celebrate() when it's time to celebrate them. Currently none of them do anything but that should change, wink wink.
Holidays can now run for more than a day. The important ones, april fools, christmas, halloween, new years, and easter, all last at least a week. The idea is so people can celebrate christmas in game without having to, you know, actually play on fucking christmas. And also to put a time limit on how long stuff like the annoying spookoween closet skeletons will stick around so it doesn't overstay its welcome and become annoying as shit like last year.
The event SS now allows more than 1 holiday to run at a time. This matters for new years + christmas, easter + april fools, easter + 4/20, and any holiday that can happen on friday the 13th. The events get stored in a list that's only initialized if there's an active holiday so testing for potential holidays is still pretty easy.
Added more easter dates so we won't have to add more until 2040. The current batch run out in 2017.
- Moved the "parsepencode" proc from **newscaster.dm** and **PDA.dm** to
**text.dm** as a global proc.
- Made the "parsepencode" proc accept only a single agrument if desired.
- Removed the font constants from **newscaster.dm**, **PDA.dm**,
**paper.dm**, **paperbin.dm**, and **photocopier.dm**.
- Replaced aforementioned constants with define'ers in **misc.dm**.
Misc:
+Fixes unreported issue with initializing lighting on a specific zlevel
+Fixes two similar issues with moveElement and moveRange. Where fromIndex or toIndex could be adjusted incorrectly in certain conditions. Potentially causing bad-sorts, or out of bound errors.
+Rewrites listclearnulls(list/L) to no longer iterate through L.len elements for every null in the list (plus 1). i.e. went from L.len*(number_of_nulls+1) list-element reads (best-case), to L.len list-element reads (worst-case)
+New proc/getElementByVar(list/L, varname, value) which finds the first datum in a list, with a variable named varname, which equals value. You can also feed it atoms instead of lists due to the way the in operator functions.
+Fixes an unreported issue with Yota's list2text rewrite. Under certain conditions, the first element would not be converted into a string. Causing type-mismatch runtimes.
+New global map_ready variable. This is not fully implemented yet, but will be used to avoid duplicate calls to initialize() for map objects.
+All turfs now maintain references to all lights currently illuminating them. This will mean higher memory use unfortunately, due to the huge number of turfs. However, it will speed up updateAffectingLights significantly. I've used list husbandry to reduce baseline memory usage, so it shouldn't be any worse than some past atmos modifications memory-wise.
-Removed 'quadratic lighting', can add this back at some point. Sorry.
+modified the way lum() works slightly, to allow turfs to have overridden delta-lumen. i.e. space cannot be illuminated more than its default ambiance. This allowed removal of some iffy special-snowflake lighting areas implemented by somebody else.
+Lighting images in the dmi can now use arbitrary naming schemes. It is reliant on order now. This allows the dmi to be replaced by simply dropping in a new dmi.
-Removed all subtypes of /area/shuttle. Shuttles now create duplicate 'rooms' of /area/shuttle. (More on this later). This will conflict with most maps. Guide on how to fix to follow.
+All verbs/tools relating to world.tick_lag were refactored to use world.fps. However old config text for setting tick_lag will still work (it converts the value to fps for you)
+MC stats improved using smoothing. They now have their own tab so they dont get in the way when you're playing as an admin.
-removed the push_mob_back stuff due to conflicting changes. Sorry Giacom.
_OK, NOW THE ACTUAL INTERESTING STUFF_
Following systems moved over to subsystem datums:
air_master
garbage_manager
lighting_controller
process_mobs (aka Life())
nanomanager
power
sun
pipenets
AFK kick loops
shuttle_controller (aka emergency shuttle/pods), supply_shuttle and other shuttles
voting
bots
radio
diseases
events
jobs
objects
ticker
Subsystems hooks and variables should be commented fairly in-depth. If anything isn't particularly clear, please make an issue.
Many system-specific global variables have been refactored into
All tickers which previously used world.timeofday now use world.time
some subsystems can iterate before round start. this resolves the issue with votes not working pregame
