At the last Toolbox Tournament, @MrStonedOne pointed out some big performance consumers. Some are disablable through easy means, but others were not. This adds two easy ones to the mix.
About The Pull Request
Document: https://hackmd.io/@bazelart/HkY-SO9VF
Each department's request console is upgraded. Instead of making requests, they are only able to see crates related to their department that helps the department. They can order one for free (so not out of anyone's wallet) and it will arrive at cargo. Cargo gets the price of the ordered crate for bringing it to the department that ordered it (via an area check, of which the crate will remain locked until satisfied, emitter cracking aside).
Ordering a crate puts the console on a cooldown depending on the price of the crate ordered. The time ranges from 10 minutes at the lowest value, to capped at 20 minutes at 4x the default crate's price. the price in time follows a ease in out circular function, where the time increases slowly as the time goes up, but a lot in the middle. towards the higher end it slows down again.
Cargo will start with far less money, but this is countered by the new source of income.
Finish Mapping it
Finish tgui panel for department orders
Testmerge it for balance and feedback who cares
Maybe give multiple destination areas, just in case one area gets obliterated who cares!
Why It's Good For The Game
Cargo starts with a budget to spend on themselves, which lets them order their department rewards before doing anything. There is no inherent reward to delivering to other departments other than social expectations of filling the job, which means cargo will simply ignore deliveries and requests if there are more self-important things going on, since those deliveries both cost cargo and do not help cargo in any way
Changelog
cl
add: replaced the request consoles in each department with department order consoles, which order for free on a cooldown. cargo gets these orders and delivers the crates, which are locked until delivery. upon delivery, cargo gets paid the value of the crate, and can then sell the crate back on the shuttle.
balance: cargo doesn't start with a budget, other departments get what their budget was split up amongst them

Implements the Modernizing radiation design document ( https://hackmd.io/@tgstation/rJNIyeBHt ) and replaces the current radiation sources with the new system, as well as replacing/removing a bunch of old consumers of radiation that either had no reason to exist, or could be replaced by something else.
Diverges from the doc in that items radiation don't go up like explained. I was going to, but items get irradiated so easily that it just feels pretty lame. Items still get irradiated, but it's mostly just so that radiation sources look cooler (wow, lots of stuff around going green), and for things like the geiger counter.
Instead of the complicated radiation_wave system, radiation now just checks everything between the radiation source and the potential target, losing power along the way based on the radiation insulation of whats in between. If this reaches too low a point (specified by radiation_pulse consumers), then the radiation will not pass. Otherwise, will roll a chance to irradiate. Uranium structures allow a delay before irradiating, so stay away!
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)
bring code up to latest standards, move many procs to named files inside _HELPERS
no idea where to put some of these procs, help is appreciated
made more files to contain some unique code, deleted unsorted.dm, we can rest now
Adds 2 new elements, one for slowing down pulling of dangerous objects (dispenser tanks and canisters), and one for preventing hostile attacking of elements in a typecache.
Also updates the obj_flags bitfield 'cause I thought I was gonna use that, but I didn't.
Adds these elements to spiders and space carp (from space dragon)
Adds some extra vars and logic to explosion code to make powerful logging entries that should help admins narrow down when explosives get misused.
Records this new info in the feedback database and bumps the explosion version +1 as a result of this.
Adds the sparring god. Your deity wants you to go out and spar people for self improvement.
Sparring
You can create contracts from paper as the chaplain. The contracts come with a set of conditions for the battle.
You can set which weapons are allowed.
You can set what you earn from winning.
You can set where you fight.
BOTH participants in the sparring match must agree to the terms for the fight to begin. Changing the terms will remove any other signatures on the contract, requiring them to review and willingly sign again.
Setting the stakes to be holy will give you favor for winning the fight. You can only do this once per person, so you can't farm points. You can use points on declaring new areas as arenas, or if you save up enough, buff your heart to keep fighting in dangerous conditions.
it turns out that admins use the removed information in #61179 for faster live in-round logging, I've restored that information under a LOG_VICTIM category that should not interfere with mind-reading and ling absorb text
Title, please say hello to the element "chemical_transfer" and the component "faction_granter"
Componentized behavior is easier for admins to make events out of, more modular for code maintainability, lowers the possibility of future copy and paste, set me up with my wife, and more
One of the things I personally like the most about it is the ability for each behavior to properly be described on examine, which I loooooove!
Also, these should be fantasy affixes after the freeze is done

Added a old_movement_type argument to the COMSIG_MOVETYPE_FLAG_ENABLED and COMSIG_MOVETYPE_FLAG_DISABLED signal, fixed the check for zero g movespeed and locomotion traits removal and made some statements easier to understand.
Simple_animals / mobs are the biggest lie in this code-base. They're far from simple and have an extreme god-object problem. Especially when you get to /hostile, where there is so many procs, vars, and what not, that you can't make any interesting additions without snowflaking the hell out of the code.
This PR hopes to help kill this problem by introducing a new /living subtype, /living/basic. The idea of this refactor is to slowly start moving all old simple_animals to this new system, moving over behaviors like charging and more extravagant mobs like megafauna over bit by bit similar to how newfood was implemented.
One of the other big goals of this refactor is to move many of the fringe simple animal behaviors into either AI datums, or components/elements. (Some of which still needs to be done in this PR).
As a proof of concept, I created the base mob/living/basic, and moved cockroaches over to the system. Since cockroaches have both a passive, melee and ranged mob.
This PR does slightly affect balance as the behavior isn't 1-on-1 due to it no longer running on the janky /hostile behavior, but I tried to keep the effects to a minimum, and the glockroach and hauberoach are not spawnable through many means as far as I know.
See title. Also refactors caltrops into a component because they use connect_loc_behalf which requires them to hold the state.
This also fixes COMPONENT_DUPE_SELECTIVE from just outright not working.
connect_loc_behalf doesn't make sense as an element because it tries to hold states. There is also no way to maintain current behaviour and not have the states that it needs.
Due to the fact that it tries to hold states, it means the code itself is a lot more buggy because it's a lot harder to successfully manage these states without runtimes or bugs.
On metastation, there is only 2519 connect_loc_behalf components at roundstart. MrStonedOne has told me that datums take up this much space:
image
If we do the (oversimplified) math, there are only ever 5 variables that'll likely be changed on most connect_loc_behalf components at runtime:
connections,
tracked,
signal_atom,
parent,
signal_procs
This means that on metastation at roundstart, we take up this amount: (24 + 16 * 5) * 2519 = 261.97600 kilobytes
This is not really significant and the benefits of moving this to a component greatly outweighs the memory cost.
(Basically the memory cost is outweighed by the maint cost of tracking down issues with the thing. It's too buggy to be viable longterm basically)
Quality of life; it spares us from having to walk all the way around or destroy them with either a wirecutter (faster) or any impromptu weapon (slower, as they currently have 300 maximum integrity, despite taking only three iron rods - one more than grilles - to make) in certain occasions, and it's already a thing on other codebases that have railing objects.
This fixes#60350. Spectral instruments are now gifted at the correct intended values. 90% chance of an instrument spawning, with a 1/3 chance of each instrument.
Title. Because of mob and object visuals under open space being able to be hovered over with the cursor and examined and in general acting as entities distint from the turf holding them it tends to be hard or even impossible to build floor and catwalks over these turfs. This PR aims to fix it with a basically simple, more-convenient-than-a-painstaking-refactor and easy to apply element (edit: and proc).
Fixes a ton of harddels, sourced from #59996
I think this brings us down to like, ~100 per round from ~200, with only like 20 of those being proper hell failures. I've seen harddel profiles below 1 second of total cost. Feeling good.
See you on the other side
Makes the cryopod control computer into a weakref, never trust bee code
Converts brig door timer internal lists to weakrefs
Fixes a harddel caused by qdeling a motion sensitive camera after it had left its source area, jesus christ why didn't we do this already holy shit
Converts the radio implant ref held by the antenna mutation to weakrefs because it isn't reliably cleaned up, makes the radio implant actually qdel its fucking radio
Removes the target var from the throwing datum, it does literally nothing and just exists to cause harddels, mostly for the singularity
Fixes a cable harddel sourced from things that try to enter blueprints after smoothing, but before roundstart. IE, shuttles. Removes shuttles from the blueprints
Fixes emmisive blockers being added post qdel
Removes some manual ghosting from cryopods, I initially did this for harddel reasons, but I figured out a better fix for that. I'm now doing it because it's got this really strange logic for like "re-entering the game" that doesn't actually link to what the ghostize proc does. We should remove this at some point
Fixes robot hud objects harddeling due to hanging refs
Fixes buildmode related hanging refs, I'm coming for you admin team
Fixes a few instances of trying to add the forensics component post qdel, hhhhhhhhhhh
Fixes some split personality harddels/weirdness
Replaces a use of disconnect_duct with an init qdel hint, I suspect there's more issues with duct harddels, I've seen some odd logs about ahhh the area_contents list, but we can worry about that later
Makes teleporter targets into weakrefs, properly types them as /atom
Makes frequency devices into weakrefs
Makes cameras remove themselves from camera nets on Destroy
Makes tgui ui datums implement destroy, this means if I ever see one hang a ref to user or whatever, I know there's an error with calling close() properly. I've seen this harddel once, but not after this change so I assume there was some error with close(). IDK maybe this is a papering over? Would have to ask @stylemistake
I've seen logs of beartraps being in world post del, putting a return there just in case. The same is true of nerf darts, but I haven't really looked into that yet
Makes a shoe's ref to untying alerts a weakref, yes this is needed.
Moves clearing client_in_contents to the Login of the new mob. This prevents doing things like ghosting someone before a mob qdel causing harddels
Fixes a harddel set sourced from adding a status effect to a qdeleted thing. Is this an error? I'm honestly not sure.
Converts bsa code to weakrefs
Converts the partner var of heat exchangers to weakrefs
Converts camera assemblies to weakrefs
Fixes some dumb behavior with ammo casings and assuming you'll be on a turf post Destroy parent call
Fixes? merger related harddels, you were never cleared from your own members list, so origin objects would end up making a new list, creating harddels. Potential input from @ninjanomnom about the logic
Chasms store a static list of "falling atoms", which only exists for chasms that go somewhere else. This list wasn't being cleared of qdeleted objects, which is what happens when you fall in most chasms. Fixes this, and converts the list to weakrefs.
Fixes some runtimes in both sheet code, and the weather listener element. This is here because runtime spam made testing more of a pain, didn't think it needed its own pr
Fixes colorful reagent harddels sourced from reagents that were qdel'd before roundstart. I'm only like 50% sure this actually got it, but the issue may have been solved by #60174, so eh
Turns the nuke op antag datum's ref to the war button into a weakref
Fixes some holopad code that was not nulling refs all the time
Converts camera bugs to weakrefs, this was the result of the bug being "reworked" like 6 years back without taking the existing ref clearing into account. Whole item needs a redo, but this'll do for now.
Ensures that the both pulling and pullee refs are cleared on Destroy
The crew monitor held all users in a non clearing list, makes that list a weakref because I hate everything
Oh and I removed all sources of gas_mixture qdeletion, I'm kinda unsure on this since it's not technically supported, but any harddels from it might? indicate something going wrong with like, gas passing logic. I'd like @MrStonedOne's thoughts, since I trust him to call me an idiot if I'm wrong.
