## About The Pull Request
We currently have a list of point types that is meant to be
list(``DEFINE`` = name) but it's completely useless since the define is
just the name anyways. It's not used for anything, it has no purpose to
be this way. It seems more like a holdover from when there were multiple
types of research points (it was made for that purpose, even before
nanite points were a thing) but even for that, it serves no purpose.
I reworked it now to be the abbreviated name of the research point type,
de-hardcoding techwebs a little bit and removing the need for
downstreams to edit the techweb UI.
## Why It's Good For The Game
This at least looks better and makes more sense at people just looking
over it.
## Changelog
No player-facing changes.
## About The Pull Request
I made this to help me move more towards my goals [laid out
here](https://hackmd.io/XLt5MoRvRxuhFbwtk4VAUA) which currently doesn't
have much interest.
This makes the Destructive Analyzer use a little neat TGUI menu instead
of its old HTML one. I also touch a lot of science stuff and a little
experimentor stuff, so let me explain a bit:
Old iterations of Science had different items that you can use to boost
nodes through deconstruction. This has been removed, and its only
feature is the auto-unlocking of nodes (that is; making them visible to
the R&D console). I thought that instead of keeping this deprecated code
around, I would rework it a little to make it clear what we actually use
it for (unhiding nodes).
All vars and procs that mentioned this have been renamed or reworked to
make more sense now.
Experimentor stuff shares a lot with the destructive analyzer, so I had
to mess with that a bit to keep its decayed corpse of deprecated code,
functional.
I also added context tips to the destructive analyzer, and added the
ability to AltClick to remove the inserted item. Removing items now also
plays a little sound because it was kinda lame.
Also, balloon alerts.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Moves a shitty machine to TGUI so it is slightly less shitty, now it's
more direct and compact with more player-feedback.
Helps me with a personal project and yea
### Video demonstration
I show off connecting the machine to R&D Servers, but I haven't changed
the behavior of that and the roundstart analyzers are connected to
servers by default.

## Changelog
🆑
refactor: Destructive Analyzers now have a TGUI menu.
/🆑
Done using this command sed -Ei 's/(\s*\S+)\s*\t+/\1 /g' code/**/*.dm
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.

Yeah yeah I know no opening too many WIP PRs but this one's [ready] and I want to make sure any furthur techweb development doesn't keep using the old reference system which will make refactoring it harder, and this makes it easier for coders to do stuff in theory (at least for me), standardizes getting a node/design, and makes stuff actually GC properly.
The technologies which unlock the design are shown. Lathe types are
shown visually. If the design is constructible, a button to go to the
lathe search screen is shown.
