Player Panel's Make AI Now Respects Closing
Hey there,
Before, this wouldn't respect it if the user calling this via the Player Panel just hit the X button, instead of "cancel" on the TGUI input message. If you hit the X button, it would just create an AI at the normal AI landmark anyways (very stupid!). I fell for this like twice in the last week, so let's get this outta here.
Changes the limit of paths to spawn via game panel from a hardcoded 5 to be based on the admin spawn limit.
Why It's Good For The Game
5 is a bit limiting, especially as it's easily possible to spawn more than five types of something in other ways. QOL.
Changelog
cl Melbert
admin: The game panel now lets you make more than five different types of something at once.
/cl
Atomized from #68816, with a little addition. Fixes some dumb formatting issues with the lua editor, adds a "jump to bottom" button when viewing the state log, and paginates the state logs.
About The Pull Request

This PR does the following:
Force event menu uses tgUI.
Arranged events into categories, and added a little description to each. The descriptions appear as tooltips when you hover over the Trigger button.
Rewrote how "Announce to crew?" works. It no longer pops up a panel after the event has been already announced. Instead, the admins select it via a checkbox, and the result is passed through an optional argument.
announceChance's comment is tweaked a bit to reflect how it actually works at the moment.
Moved rpgtitles to wizard events, where it belongs.
Fake Virus and Electric Storms show up to observers, as I believe they are not as common as Space Dust or Camera Failure, and should be cancelable.
Potential issues:
This only solves half of #68408, I don't think admin triggering having a timer and a cancel button is a big issue, as it allows other admins to overrule you if needed, but if i is, I will try to fix it within this PR.
Fixes#68408. Events now spawn immediately, and the the announceChance is overwritten before it begins.
My choices for categories and descriptions might not be the best, feedback would be appreciated.
Why It's Good For The Game
The old spawn menu was completely unorganized, and you could only search using the browser search tool. I believe a built in search bar helps with this issue a bit. I also believe that organizing the events into categories, and adding descriptions will help with newer admins who might not be familiar with all events.
Changelog
cl
refactor: The Force Event UI has been refactored
refactor: Events now have categories and descriptions
refactor: Admin triggered events happen immediately

This PR moves the in-game Newscaster over to TGUI, which is one the most bothersome html to tgui projects on the codebase being that it's gone untouched for like... over 4 years now after the introduction of tgui. Newscasters are widely used in-game by players wanting to be deranged whistleblowers, noir detectives, and journalists. They're flavorful, fun, and we still use an html window to make them run so it looks like it's from 2003.
About The Pull Request
This PR makes a few small tweaks to admin tools that I think frequent users may appreciate.
Adds the "Find Updated Panel" button to the player panel, which bring up that ckey's newest PP if one exists. Useful for when the person you're inspecting has changed mobs so you don't have to search for their new mob to get their new panel.
Adds VV and TAG links to all the entries in the Get-Contents right click verb. This should make checking and editing someone's gear easier, since you don't have to VV the person -> their satchel -> their survival box -> their oxygen tank for example, you can just click the VV link for the tank directly.
Lets you ignore punctuation in the F6 player search menu. This was a request, so if you have a silicon named "H.E.R.A.", you can now pull it up by just searching "hera". Also ignores spaces, but I doubt that'll cause any issues.
About The Pull Request
Converts more inputs to TGUI. Possibly all user-facing input lists in the game.
Did any surrounding text/number inputs as well
Added null choice support so users can press cancel.
Added some misc TGUI input fixes
Fixed custom vendors while I was there
I refactored a lot of code while just poking around.
Primarily, usage of .len in files where I was already working on lists.
Some code was just awful - look at guardian.dm and its non use of early returns
If there are any disputes, I can revert it just fine, those changes are not integral to the PR.
Why It's Good For The Game
Fixes#63629Fixes#63307
Fixes custom vendors /again/
Text input is more performant.
Part of a long series of TGUI conversion to make the game more visually appealing
Changelog
cl
refactor: The majority of user facing input lists have been converted to TGUI.
refactor: Tgui text inputs now scale with entered input.
fix: Many inputs now properly accept cancelling out of the menu.
fix: Fixes an edge case where users could not press enter on number inputs.
fix: Custom vendor bluescreen.
fix: You can now press ENTER on text inputs without an entry to cancel.

I got tired of having to walk new admin candidates through the admin buttons and telling them about all of the antiquated buttons they'd never use, so I'm doing my part and removing a bunch of the transformation bloat from the player panel. Below is the current menu
The only button admins I know ever actually use is the human rudimentary transformation one, and literally nothing else. Judging by how the options are a random choice of some of the station pets, these options probably haven't been updated since like 2012. In addition, the non-rudimentary transformations only work if you're a human, so not sure why they show up for non human player panels.
Here's the new pared down selection, I figured these would be the only useful ones from the bunch. They work no matter what mob the target was previously, whether it be another living mob or a ghost. In addition, I also cut out the transformation equivalents from the VV dropdown, because lord knows that menu keeps getting longer and longer. Lastly, I refactored stuff where possible without getting too trapped in cursed pre-MSO era admincode.
Bring _HELPERS/_lists.dm to latest standards by:
-Adding proper documentation and fixing existing one
-Giving vars proper names
-Procs now use snake case as per standard (many files that use those procs will be affected)
admin topics for updating available jobs weren't logged at all and that was kinda dumb
john willard logged the console to game which i disagree with so i want to move that also
Admins can now give players a popup if they are not responding to tickets.
Popup is cleared when player replies or ticket is resolved/closed.
As more and more of the chat screen is made irrelevant, new players read it less and less.
This means that a lot of new players are ignoring ahelps, which is something I've encountered myself.
Requested by oranges and inspired by the upcoming event. A new subsyetem, non-processing (for now), aimed at providing some toggle switches that can be flipped as a last ditch effort to save some CPU cycles by sacrificing some non-critical mechanics. Below you can see each individual toggle.
Screenshot of the admin panel:

Surely there are more opportunities for toggles I missed, but adding new ones is not very difficult at all.
Why It's Good For The Game
Better performance during extreme pop, I hope.
Changelog
cl
code: Introduces the Lag Switch subsystem for when a smoother experience is worth trading a few bells and whistles for. Performance enhancement measures can be togged by admins with the Show Lag Switches admin verb or enabled automatically at a pop amount set via config.
config: Added a new config var: number/auto_lag_switch_pop
At some point in the last few weeks, the OOC heart commendations that players were polled for during the shuttle's return trip at the end of the round stopped appearing for people on the live servers, even though admin logs showed it was still calculating how many people were supposed to be asked, and it seemed to be working fine on my local server. My only guess is it might somehow be related to #58419 since that was the last PR to touch hearted.dm, even if it's not clear how it might've broken it.
I also neaten up the code for commendations a bit, making it so the procs are easier to follow and have less unnecessary checks. Also, the proc nominate_heart has been reworked to receive_heart, since it makes more sense for it to run on the person receiving the commendation as opposed to the person sending it. It will also properly cancel polling if the "how many to ask" check returns 0 people, rather than always polling at least one.
Edit: Figured it out, #58419 was indeed the culprit, it blindly replaced src with usr without considering that src and usr aren't necessarily the same thing (as it was here, since query_heart() was called by the ticker SS)
Converts most spans into span procs. Mostly used regex for this and sorted out any compile time errors afterwards so there could be some bugs.
Was initially going to do defines, but ninja said to make it into a proc, and if there's any overhead, they can easily be changed to defines.
Makes it easier to control the formatting and prevents typos when creating spans as it'll runtime if you misspell instead of silently failing.
Reduces the code you need to write when writing spans, as you don't need to close the span as that's automatically handled by the proc.
(Note from Lemon: This should be converted to defines once we update the minimum version to 514. Didn't do it now because byond pain and such)
Delaying/undelaying round end is no longer a toggle under the same href.
Delaying and undelaying the round end are now explicit operations. If two admins attempt to delay round end at the same time, the first admin to input a reason wins and the second admin instead gets an alert that the round end is already delayed along with the reason instead of accidentally untoggling it.
FINALLY, undelaying round end will no longer trigger an immediate auto server reboot when SSticker.ready_for_reboot is TRUE. The admins are messaged that they must Reboot World manually. This is the final guard against admins accidentally undelaying when they're not actually ready to do so.

We have countless examples in the codebase with this style gone wrong, and defines and such being on hideously different levels of indentation. Fixing this to keep the alignment involves tainting the blames of code your PR doesn't need to be touching at all. And ultimately, it's hideous.
There are some files that this sed makes uglier. I can fix these when they are pointed out, but I believe this is ultimately for the greater good of readability. I'm more concerned with if any strings relied on this.

About The Pull Request
Dynamic 2021, among much other things, splits the threat level into two separate budgets, one for round start and one for midround/latejoin. You can read the design doc, plus methodology and charts here: https://hackmd.io/@tgstation/S1C4dYJkO.
To server owners: this is incompatible with current dynamic.json configurations. This is not just because some fields have different values now, but because the older values are not balanced towards this system.
Inidividual list of changes (as I remember them):
Threat level is now split into two separate budgets, one for round start and one for midround/latejoin.
In TESTING, you can now run dynamic simulations to see the roundstart picks.
antag_cap is now based on an equation rather than a fixed list of antags per indice--the old system is not scalable. You can now pass it either a number for a fixed constant, or a list with "denominator" and an optional "offset" to fit the equation ceil(x / denominator) + offset, with x being population.
Midround/latejoin timers are now vars on /datum/game_mode/dynamic itself, and thus can be configured by head admins per server.
Removes some older, as far as I can tell completely unused admin tools relating to dynamic.
autotraitor_cooldown is now properly respected from config, and is based on an exact time rather than on ticks (450 used to be 15 minutes, now it's just 15 MINUTES).
The rulesets dynamic chooses are now in a dynamic.json file in round logs. Relies on tgstation/tgstation13.org#64 to be public.
Adds more logging to the autotraitor ruleset for admins.
Midround/latejoin chance modifiers are now configurable.
Labelled "Do Not Merge", as the design doc outlines the specific playtesting schedule I would like to perform.
Note to self: Remove the custom MOTD before merge.
Why It's Good For The Game
(Copied from design doc)
Dynamic currently dumps as much threat as it can into round start threats. This means that rounds at ~50 threat can have an absurd amount of antagonists round start, while leaving very little threat for midround/latejoin antagonists. What inevitably happens is just one of those picked decides to murderbone, leading to the inevitable 20 minute shuttle call. Furthermore, once those antagonists are dead, Dynamic doesn’t have any threat left to spend on new antagonists that keep the round flowing, promoting the mentality of “antags dead, I’m bored, let’s leave”.
The proposed solution of Dynamic 2021 is to split threat level into two separate budgets, one for round start and one for midround/latejoin. This split, like threat level, will also be done on a lorentz curve–meaning that while most rounds will have them evenly split, there is still the possibility of chaotic high antagonist round start rounds, or the possibility of a midround onslaught.
Changes the references of borg module (type) to model, adds a file for robot declarations and one for model declarations. Basically trying to make the code layout a little more sane.
Initially changed them to 'configurations' but I prefer model; its meaning is closer to module than configuration and avoids confusion with actual config.
Adds a Yes/No/Cancel button to the AI transform proc that admins use on whether the new AI should be moved to the satellite or not.
Sometimes admins want to make an AI somewhere off-station for whatever reason. Also makes testing things with AIs less of a hassle.
