## About The Pull Request
This PR adds a scanning functionality to the bluespace light replacer
that identifies broken light bulbs within visual range and highlights
them with temporary bluespace firefly markers (sorry for this sprite):
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/a0f3b2cf-9dde-4888-9ce1-085ed18141d5
## Why It's Good For The Game
Makes finding broken lights in dark areas much less tedious, especially
during station-wide electrical storm.
By making broken light identification easier, this feature encourages
players to actually fix lighting issues rather than ignoring them.

## About The Pull Request
Moves a lot of the unique renaming implementations described in #82664
to the functions given by the `obj_flag` `UNIQUE_RENAME`.
`UNIQUE_RENAME` has been given new properties to account for
non-standard renaming, these being the `RENAME_NO_DESC` flag that
prevents changing the description, the `nameformat()` and `descformat()`
procs that, when modified, allow for applying naming formats(i.e. "Body
Bag - [input]"), as well as other post-renaming handling such as
changing the name of the output plant of a renamed seed, the
`rename_checks()` proc that allows for unique naming prevention(such as
a locked personal closet), and the `rename_reset()` proc to clean up
other possible renamed variables potentially changed in `nameformat()`
and `descformat()`.
This also adds `/datum/element/tool_renaming` to crayons, which will let
them rename anything that has `UNIQUE_RENAME`. I looked through
everything with that flag, and I didn't see anything that I don't think
should be renameable by a crayon(except things that shouldn't be
renamable with pens), so it shouldn't fuck anything up.
## Why It's Good For The Game
moves all of the non-honorable mentions in #82664 to the same renaming
system, and also moves all of the honorable mentions save for:
- plaques, as they only get renamed once and wouldn't benefit from
`UNIQUE_RENAME` imo
- books, because they're far more than just renaming, and are persistent
- paintings, because they're persistent
- photos, because they're not normal renaming and they're persistent
- endoskeletons, because they're done with a multitool in UI
- cardboard IDs, because they're far more than just renaming
Additionally, this fixes:
- Implanter renaming didn't work because a ! was missing
- Clown borg picket sign renaming didn't work because they didn't use
the correct arguments
This'll make it easier to make renameable objects in the future, as
well.
## Changelog

fix: fixes clownborg picket sign renaming not working

## Why It's Good For The Game
as paramedic later into the game you'll prefer jaws of life over jaws of
recovery because theyre both silent AND have no area restrictions, but
heres the thing: you cant wear it in suit storage, nor it can act as
bonesetter additionally (why would paramed need wirecutter?) this PR is
aimed to combie both of those jaws into one modified, that would be
useful for paramedic.
also you really should be able to wear them in mod suit storage, trust
me, it sucks to carry paramedic jacket/coat in inventory everytime and
waste time on swapping
## Changelog

qol: Jaws of Recovery can be worn on medical MODSuit suit storage now.
add: Added modified Jaws of Recovery and recipe for them. Made from
regular Jaws of Life they act like one, without area restrictions and

## About The Pull Request
Heretic has received a complete overhaul. This PR touches nearly every
aspect of the antagonist. For readability's sake, not every change is
going to be listed in this pull request.
For the full list of changes please refer to the design doc:
https://hackmd.io/@BiST8PJVRjiwVPY86U3bLQ/B11HyChz1g.
Code by Me, @Xander3359 and @Arturlang

### Core changes
- Cross-pathing has been removed. Main knowledge spells are now
exclusive to their path (for the most part).
- For every main knowledge unlocked (save for the robes and the blade
upgrade), Heretics can choose one option from a draft of 3 random side
knowledges (this is a free point).
- Heretics can now purchase side knowledges from a new tab, the
"Knowledge Shop". Side-knowledges have been divided by tier (Stealth,
Defense, Summons, Combat and Main). Tiers are unlocked as you progress
toward your main path.
- Heretics now gain the grasp and mark upgrade immediately, but their
main knowledge choices cost twice as much (except for the first spell,
the robes and the blade upgrade).
- Path specific robes have been introduced! They come with their own set
of quirks.
- Each Path has received a passive ability. This passive is upgraded
when you first create your robes, and again when you complete the Ritual
of Knowledge.
- Paths have been rebalanced as a result of the removal of cross-path
progression. Cosmic and Moon paths have received soft reworks.
- Upon unlocking the path 2nd level or reaching a total of 8 points
worth of knowledge, Heretics will lose the ability to blade break (and
the limit on blades all together).
- Ascension now automatically calls the shuttle with no possibility of a
recall.
- Late join Heretic has been removed.
### New UI
<img width="750" height="635" alt="moon path ui"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/184ef783-5c9c-48a1-a2f7-4807ca93e990"
/>
### Knowledge shop
<img width="787" height="669" alt="Knowledge shop"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/3dc89b84-8c70-4d47-b612-54396e3ea6e7"
/>
### Quality of life //General balance changes
- Heretics will now gain X-ray vision for a few seconds when nearby an
eldritch essence (this effect has a cooldown).
- Ritual of knowledge now requires 1 uncommon item instead of 2. You may
now use a stunprod instead of a baton to complete the ritual. Beartraps
have been removed from the list of possible reagents.
- The maximum number of possible sacrifices required to ascend has been
reduced from 6 to 5 while the minimum has been upped to 4.
- Codex Cicatrix no longer requires a special pen to be made.
### Passive abilities
- Heretics now start with a passive ability. You can find what it does
on the path info tab after a path has been selected, and what they gain
when upgraded.
- Crafting your first set of Eldritch robes will bump your passive to
level 2.
- Unlocking the 2nd level will subsequently unlock your "Ritual Of
Knowledge"
- Completing the ritual of knowledge or ascending will net you the final
level.
### Path Specific Robes
- Armorer's Ritual is no longer a side knowledge. Each path will have
their own unique version of the ritual. This is placed after the 2nd
spell in the tree.
- Robes can no longer be destroyed by fire and acid, grant t4 flash
protection (Moth Heretics stay winning) and protection against basic
syringes, to bring them on par with other antagonist's armor sets.
- The recipe to craft the robes is now a set of armor/vest, a mask (any
mask will do now, not just gas masks), plus the unique reagent required
for the blades (Plasma for Cosmic, Trash For Rust, match for Ash and so
on)
- Wearing the robes as a non-heretic may yield some unfortunate
side-effects.
### Moon Path Rework
Moon path rework.
Moon Heretics gain immunity to brain traumas and slowly regenerate brain
health. Equipping the moon amulette channels its effects through the
moon blade; making it unblockable and cause sanity damage instead of
brute. Ring leader's Rise now summons an army of harmless clones that
explode when attacked; the explosion briefly stuns non-heretics and
cause sanity and brain damage to them. Moon blade can also now be used
when pacified and Moon spells are no longer blocked by regular anti
magic, only mind magic protection.
**Cosmic Path Rework**
Cosmic path has received the biggest batch of changes alongside Moon.
The path has been dead last in ascension and pickrate (less than 5%) for
almost 2 years. It did gain some popularity over the last few months,
reaching the highest ascension rate in the game (12%) while mantaining a
relatively low pickrate.
Cosmic sits in a weird spot, where pretty much every knowledge
surrounding the path is either mediocre or, in the case of the
ascension, dysfunctional. Yet it has maintained a smidge of relevancy
due to how quickly Cosmic heretics can capture and sacrifice targets
thanks to Star Touch.
As a result, the best course of action would be to rebalance the
entirety of the kit; granting the heretic more tools to manipulate space
and dictate the flow of a fight, while lessening their ability to end a
confrontation by instantly sleeping their opponents.
lastly The Star Gazer is now ghost controlled ; And they shoot lazers!

## Why It's Good For The Game
### Ok...but why do we want this?
Again, if you want my full reasoning, please check my doc
https://hackmd.io/@BiST8PJVRjiwVPY86U3bLQ/B11HyChz1g.
To keep it short and concise; Heretic is too complex and unintuitive for
its own good. Too impenetrable for new players and too abusable for
experienced players. This can be chalked up to a lot of poor design
decisions. But ultimately, what I believe being the biggest contributor
to the current status of Heretic is the ability to move into different
paths, also known as "Cross-Pathing".
### Cross Pathing my beloathed.
Cross-pathing, while cool in theory, overcomplicates the antagonist and
overloads them with power. Players dealing with the heretic are
incapable of working out what a given heretic can do. This also leads to
late game heretics having 3 rows Worth of action buttons and virtually
no weakness.
Over the last year, I've often received the understandable but also kind
of unfair accusations of making Heretic too powerful without a clear aim
or purpose.
My goal with the paths I've reworked over the last year (Rust,Void and
Blade) wasn't necessarily to just make them stronger (although that was
also part of the goal, as they were paths that were underperforming),
but for them to have more interactions with the sandbox and to better
live up to the fantasy presented to the player.
If an harbringer of frost gets countered by a cup of coffee, we probably
messed something up.
Unfortunately, the current incarnation of Heretic doesn't really allow
for surgical balance changes to specific paths. Every time a knowledge
gets buffed, we make every path that can easily tap onto that knowledge
stronger by default. It doesn't take a genius to understand why this
system is ultimately unsustainable.
### Blade Breaking
I feel that after a heretic has reached the near peak of their power,
they no longer need the ability to instantly escape any encounter. Check
my doc for my full reasoning.
## Less versatile, more specialized paths.
By removing cross-pathing, we remove a huge maintainability burden from
the antagonist. Paths can now be designed around clearer strengths and
weaknesses. They become easier to balance and less of an headache to
understand for everyone.
It also means we can give paths some needed quality of life quirks
without having to worry how such a change might have a knock-on effect
for other paths.
Ash heretics can finally let loose without dying by their own flames.
Cosmic Heretic can go to space without having to carry a modsuit. Moon
Heretic can use their abilities without fear of one random trauma
ruining their day, and so on.
### What a horrible night to have a curse...., wait how do I curse
people again?
As of right now the heretic tree has quite a hefty amount of trinkets
that pretty much never see use.
Partly because the tree itself is a nightmare to navigate. And partly
because why would anyone set up an elaborate plan or scheme when they
can unleash 2 rows of spell in the span of bunch of seconds.
Heretics mostly gravitate towards powers that push them towards greater,
more potent combat strength. If it doesn't contribute to killing people
quicker, it isn't worth doing for most. And given the opportunity cost
associated for taking those powers, they will remain that way so long as
there are better choices to be poached.
The new draft system encourages Heretics to play more with the tools at
their disposal. If you want to go for a specific combo from the side
path options, you may now do so by tapping into the knowledge shop.
Yes, the shop does include a few knowledges from the other paths. But
these are limited to 1 per path, are very expensive and can only be
unlocked very late into the shift.
## Drip Of the Mansus
The iconic heretic robe is actually sequestered to a side path that is
most easily access by only two paths at a time. Since heretic paths are
being made to be much more specialized, the most obvious way in which
this can be showcased is through an easily
identifiable outfit.
By using the robes, we can both telegraph WHAT heretic you are looking
at, and just how much power they've accumulated and when it is
reasonable to take the kid gloves off and treat them as a genuine
threat. If a heretic is in their
robes, that heretic is now a significantly more prominent danger to the
station.
It also serves as a useful means for gating some of the more powerful
effects of a heretic's path behind the robes, AND enable options for
disarming them of that power should they be captured without making it
something endemic to their mob.
A major problem with heretics is a lack of certainty as to how powerful
they have become. A heretics robes is one of the milestones to help
players dealing with heretics identify that.
### Will this be 100% fair and balanced?
This is a massive overhaul to a pretty complex and bloated antagonist.
I've done my best to show the changes to several maintainers and other
members of the community for their feedback. But at some point we'll
have to see how this behave in the environment to get a feel if
something is over or undertuned. (that's my way of saying, yes this is
likely gonna require a testmerge or two).
What I will say is that I'm not trying to change the core identity of
Heretic.
Heretics should have the upperhand in single encounters early on, be
able to joust a small group of players after they unlock their final
spell, and end the round when they ascend. They're a progression
antagonist. They should retain their payoff as well as pose a danger as
they grow stronger.
But if more players feel like they are more reliably able to play the
antagonist in more varied and interesting ways, rather than the
antagonist largely existing as a measuring stick for 'robustness' due to
its elitist design philosophy, then the rework has been a success. There
should be something for
everyone in the antagonist, as is true for all of our antagonist roles.
## About The Pull Request
Ore bags try to insert the stack without actually checking if it can
merge with anything, meaning that ores can take up limited slots which
may end up with 7 single-ore stacks preventing any more ore from
entering the bag, despite there being ample space for 49 more ore of
each type. Now bags will actually try to merge picked up ore into
themselves first, ensuring that this doesn't occur, and that the bag
will always be topped up (This needed additional logic to ensure that
stacks don't merge beyond the size that the storage they're in can
handle)
Additionally, I've changed how stacks merge when dragged (instead of
merging themselves into the target, target is merged into themselves)
and prevent dragging from changing focus to stack that is being merged
into if the merging stack isn't empty, fixing the "pull churn" issue
that locks out player inputs if you try to pry and drag floor tiles due
to constantly swapping the pull target after every tile pried, plus I've
removed that weird ore box `insertion` animation (which I recon is an
oversight) and ore bags sucking up the ores you drop from your hand
because you're probably doing so intentionally
## Changelog
🆑
fix: Fixed ore bags being able to reject any ores despite having ample
space
fix: Pulling a stack behind you and getting it topped up by lying items
will no longer spam pulls and lock out your inputs
fix: Picking up ores into an ore box via an ore bag will no longer play
a jank animation

Reverts the changes in https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/pull/83334
weak claymore to its former glory so its no longer so bad.
## Why It's Good For The Game
This will let people use melee more often against threats and this
person nerfed the claymore thats used in the holodeck when said claymore
is used elsewhere- and in my opinion the holodeck claymore was not
deserving of this nerf anyhow as it allows crew or antagonists to have a
fairly good melee in a pinch with some extremely hefty downsides such as
the fact that it will disappear from your hand mid fight is non zero.
The other places this claymore can be found is from A: Templar
skeletons, so literally only from the end of snowdin and B: Fishing? if
this becomes a problem ill make a subtype of the claymore that deals 24
brute and 10 pen like how it used to and just give that to the fishing
corpse instead
and also fallowing the format that mothblocks gave me
for a revert to merge, a rule of thumb is it must prove **one** of the
following things:
1| that the problem it was solving was redundantly solved by something
else: The claymores obtainable from the holodeck can be removed from the
holodeck by a law 2 or by one bomb, the holodeck is a massive area and
its very hard to fortify the holodeck against attack and if somebody
does try to make an r-wall around the entire holodeck your going to have
a long notice for that, alternatively you can use x-ray eyes+telepathy
to just turn it off remotely even if its been fortified.
2| that it did not solve the problem, and has either made it worse or
provides an extra loss: It did solve the problem by making this weapon
with already huge downsides completely unviable for any purpose other
than being a shield.
3| that the problem it was solving is illegitimate (the absolute hardest
one): This was an ided PR, its admitted to be such
https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/pull/83334#issuecomment-2120321699
and they say this which corroborates with the comment that the comment
im linking to is replying to. "Hey AI, I need my free 4-hit weapon. I'm
totally not a changeling or anything." And the issue that they were
"solving" also in-advertently nerfed the one other location where you
could actually get this claymore from. In my opinion these claymores are
not a problem for the reasons as stated above and the reason why it was
ever even merged has a good chance of just being oranges going "haha
this funny"

Logical follow up to #93313 and #91902
CMO now has a backpack which matches their teal palette rather than
re-using the medical doctor's blue backpack
CMO now starts with white sneakers instead of blue sneakers
### Garment bag update
Garment bags can hold backpacks, duffels, etc.
However they CANNOT store backpacks which have ANY contents, so no risk
of storage nesting memes here.
### Misc
Removed the defib mount from the CMO's closet
Minor bugfix for being unable to swap storage positions of items which
were instantiated in a storage
## Why It's Good For The Game
- Much like the Paramedic, the CMO has had many cooks which have not
always been on the same page, so this makes their sprite a bit more
coherent.
- Heads with unique packs just tossed them in their closet which is
pretty spammy given we have four variants now. Putting them in the
garment back makes sense.
- Defib mount in CMO's locker hasn't been necessary for a while now that
all treatment centers spawn with defib mounts.
- Bugfix.

## About The Pull Request
The chaplain's energy swords were weird fake energy swords that couldn't
be turned on or off. This is largely because, in the past, we couldn't
easily convert other objects into null rods conveniently. Though we did
get the transforming component, it never was added to the chaplain
weapons. Maybe because there would be a lot of copypasted code.
Now, with the ``nullrod_core`` element, we can easily turn an object
into a null rod. So I did that. It's now an energy sword AND a null rod.
The future is now.
For clarity, the stats on the null rods are identical to before. The
only difference being that it has the ability to switch on and off, and
it now emits light. That's it really. If there are any extra stats I
missed, let me know.
Also adds the carp'sie plushie to the list of wearable objects for
chaplain suit storage.

Adds the Jaws of Recovery, a form of Jaws of Life. These spawn in
cabinets in medical, similar to the fireaxe and mech removal tool.
Jaws of Recovery have two heads; prying, like a standard set of jaws of
life, and bonesetting.
Jaws of Recovery cannot be used to open windoors, and cannot be used to
open certain restricted doors. These doors include command staff private
offices, any command specific areas, AI upload areas and security areas
that aren't the brig entrance.
Jaws of Recovery also send out an alarm whenever used to open a door
that is of meaningful significance, like a departmental area. This does
not happen when opening maintenance airlocks, public accessible doors,
external airlocks and the auxiliary base.
The standard Jaws of Life and Syndicate Jaws of Death are entirely
untouched and function as expected.

## Why It's Good For The Game
In my last PR I removed the broad access available to paramedics.
https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/pull/92751
I have already explained my reasoning as to why this broad access is a
mistake. This is not anywhere close to that broad access being returned.
This is a slow, deliberate interaction meant to create friction when
someone is moving around using this tool.
Now, obviously, the change was something of a kick in the teeth for
paramedics (which I won't apologize for doing). I hadn't received any
moderate alternatives that sounded like a good idea for months. That is,
until the PR was merged and someone told me about how paramedics over on
Baystation have jaws of life, but they alert people over the radio when
they are used. Seemingly they were as much worried about paramedic
tiders as we are, and they're a high roleplay environment. We clearly
invited a problem on our end that they had sought to resolve because
they too realized that it was a mistake to just give the role this
access.
Now, obviously, [RETA exists to get medical staff into an
area](https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/pull/92753). That's all
well and good and I like that system. This does not detract from that PR
whatsoever either. This is meant to serve as an extra emergency measure
in the event a paramedic REALLY needs to get into an area while trying
to create some kind of accountability for their actions by telling sec
when they start being used to pry open airlocks. If sec doesn't like how
much the paramedic is invading areas without reason, they at least know
where and when they've been going into locations and might be
incentivized to go investigate.
## Changelog
🆑
add: Adds the Jaws of Recovery. One can be found in a locked glass
cabinet in medical. These jaws of life are restricted on what they can
force open, and alert security and medical whenever they are utilized to
pry open departmental doors. They can't be used to open high security
doors whatsoever. And they come with a bonesetter attachment instead of
wirecutters. You know, for power-relocating your arm.

## About The Pull Request
Technically, this PR introduces the cuffable_item element and the
cuffed_item status effect and their relative code.
In more player-friendly terms, this allows the ability to use handcuffs
to bind certain items to your hands by right-clicking it with a pair of
handcuffs in your active hand. This makes the item unable to be dropped,
for better or worse, until you or someone else remove said cuffs. And
no, this doesn't conflict with the ability to be handcuffed if you're
silly enough to think that.
There are more than one way to remove the cuffs. For the player with the
item cuffed to their hand, to remove the cuffs they can either click the
status alert, or examine the item and click the relative hyperlink. The
second option is good to have if for some reason the status alert
doesn't show up (too many alerts etc.).
For other people, they can remove the cuffs by opening the strip
inventory menu (the one you open by click-dragging the sprite of person
with the item onto yours). It's an alternative action specific to this
status effect (therefore only held items). Until the cuffs are removed,
trying to remove the item **directly** will bring you nowhere **because
the item is stuck to their hands**, duh. Alternatively you can just chop
their arm off. You do what you do.
For a list of items that can be bound with cuffs (suggestions welcome):
- briefcases
- toolboxes
- lockboxes
- first aid kits
- shields (they generally have handles and all. gameplay-wise they
already take away one hand slot to use. Using cuffs seals the deal: no
swapping items on the go, so no two-handed weapons, but you won't drop
the shield until it's broken)
- jerrycans (Kryson's suggestion)
- soup pots (ditto, kinda weird)
- coffee mugs, and the mauna mug (ditto)
- buckets
- plushes (silly stuff, if you ever want to arrest a plush or test the
feature)
- pet carriers
- mining drills
- swords with closed guards (ERT chainsaw-sword, cap's sabre, parsnip
sabre, cutlass, e-cutlass...)
- crutches and the white cane
- baskets
- flashlights and lamps (not subtypes like flares, glowsticks and
torches)
- TTVs
- chairs
## Why It's Good For The Game
This opens up for some emergent use for handcuffs beside people (or
prisoner shoes). Inspired by a scene of some 1998 action movie, where
one of the bad guys had the mc guffin briefcase latched to his wrist
with a pair of handcuffs.
Codewise, it was also a reason to refactor bits of code like handcuffs
and screen alerts slightly. On a sidenote, actual sprites for
cult/heretic shackles.
## Changelog
🆑
add: You can now bind certain items like briefcases, toolboxes, medkits,
shields, jerrycans etc. to your hand with a pair of handcuffs,
preventing them from being dropped. You can remove said binds at any
time unless incapacitated, and so can others through the strip inventory
menu.
qol: The appearance of a screen alert now updates if the object it
represents (like, an item offered by another player) changes appearance.
imageadd: The shadow shackles item (from cult magic and heretic
sacrifices) now has its own icon.

## About The Pull Request
This fixes the admin debug gps tool so that it must be turned on to
activate. (it spawns off now) Also when it is toggled on/off, it resets
the colored turfs to their initial state.
## Why It's Good For The Game
When someone would equip the admin outfit, the debug gps would start
processing immediately, despite it not being in your hand, or even
turned on. This adds some restrictions so that you have to manually
activate it and allows the turfs to reset.
## Changelog
🆑
fix: The admin debug gps is now turned off by default and toggling it
will reset the affected turfs.
admin: Equipping the admin outfit will no longer automatically trigger
the debug gps effect.

## About The Pull Request
Taken from https://forums.tgstation13.org/viewtopic.php?t=30905
Adds an emag function to door remotes. When emagged, the remotes will
gain the ability to shock and depower doors that they have access to.
The shock function shocks the door for 30 seconds, the default electrify
time. This function has a cooldown of ten seconds. The depower function
works as if you were multitooling it, as in the first hit depowers the
main supply, and the backup power comes back on in ten seconds. You can
then hit it again to disable the backup power for the full sixty seconds
of downtime.
To be clear, neither of these are toggles. They can shock and depower,
but they cannot unshock or repower. No unsabotaging.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Currently, the AI's the only person who gets real utility out of
shocking doors. Engineers can do it, but it's too slow and obvious to be
useful, and isn't often seen. I think that this would support the rather
rare gimmick of humans doing door antagonism, and that that gimmick may
be interesting.
I believe that there is some policy to avoid making emagged items
especially useful to non-antagonist crew, and I don't believe that this
is overstepping that much. It certainly doesn't seem as useful(to me) as
the numerous interactions with reagent dispensers, consoles and the
like. If this is a great point of contention, however, I believe it
would be remedied by simply removing some or all of the standard modes
of the door remote.

can shock and depower doors.

## About The Pull Request
This PR adds 4 new types of soil and a holder item; the soil sack, to
contain and transport said soils.
<img width="496" height="378" alt="bild"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/57f42a9c-c731-4195-91df-b4456ec45e7b"
/>
Two of the new soils + the regular old soil are available in the premium
section of the nutrimax.
All 5 soil types are available from cargo.
It also adds two new plant traits; soil lover and semiaquatic, that
allows coders to confer maluses to plants growing in trays or soil
respectively.
Potatoes, sweet potatoes, carrots, parsnips, cahn'roots, white and red
beets currently have soil lover, reducing their produced yield by 30%
and their potency randomly between 20-80% if grown hydroponically.
Rice has semiaquatic which increases the amount of weeds gained by 50%
if grown in soil rather than hydroponically.
## Advanced soil types
### Vermaculite
#### Stats
Max Nutrients: 20u
Max Water: 150u
#### Special Effects
Multigraft: Up to 3 grafts can be cut from a plant planted in
vermaculite.
Graft Medium: Graft cuttiongs can be directly placed into vermaculite to
create a new plant vegetatively.
### Hydrogel Beads
#### Stats
Max Nutrients: 15u
Max Water: 300u
#### Special Effects
Hydroponic + Soil: Both water loving and soil loving plants can grow
without maluses.
Super Water: Water consumption rate is decreased by 50%
### Korta Coir
#### Stats
Max Nutrients: 20u
Max Water: 100u
#### Special Effects
Fast Mushrooms: Mushrooms mature(and age) 40% faster if planted in this
soil.
### Worm Castings
#### Stats
Max Nutrients = 35u
Max Water = 200u
#### Special Effects
Slow Release: If the nutrients run out, 1u nitrogen will be
automatically added to the nutient pool.
Worm Habitat: Composting veggies in this soil has a chance to produce an
extra slimy worm.
### Soil Sacks
Use them on the floor to place a soil at that location.
You can reverse this process by right clicking a soil with a shovel.
The sacks are huge items that deals stamina damage, but have slowdown
when carried.
They can be wielded to remove slowdown, double the damage output and
gain 25% block chance.
They have unique normal and wielded inhands for each sack type.
#### Price List
**Soil**
Nutrimax: 50 cr
Cargo: 400 cr / 5 sacks
**Vermaculite**
Nutrimax: 100 cr
Cargo: 400 cr / 3 sacks
**Hydrogel**

Cargo: 600 cr / 3 sacks
**Worm Castings**
Nutrimax: N/A
Cargo: 800 cr / 3 sacks
#### Misc Soil Changes
Soil now have a new armour type and are generally much harder to destroy
by shooting or bashing them.
Fixed a bug where weeds would instantly reduce yield to 3 instead of
lowering it by 1-2 per cycle.
## Why It's Good For The Game
I have long been a fan of using soils in botany, they are the cheapest
and easiest way to make new trays and enable many interesting
strategies.
The default soil is fine for what is but it kinda sucks, not only having
low stats but also missing autogrow, a feature botanist have grown
completely addicted and dependent on.
When self sustaining trays were removed and autogrow added, it was
intended as a way to keep a couple of plants alive while you ran out to
do errands or grab a drink.
However, the feature has devolved into basically a shift start self
sustaining for all your trays and standard practice is using it on every
single tray that currently is not trying to mutate.
This has resulted in certain core botany mechanics like water and pests
being made totally irrelevant, shrinking design space a lot.
Rather than just reaching for the stick, I thought it would be fun to
instead offer them a carrot in the form of an expanded toolset of soils
with unique effects that cannot be replicated by trays.
These new soils offer niche benefits that enable advanced botany
gameplay and provides a framwork for deepening plant / tray interactions
in the furture.
## Changelog

## About The Pull Request
Revives #93078, but instead of using connect_loc_behalf the bag tracks
the locations itself. Also applies to the ore bag MODule, and refactors
the recycler MODule to track locations manually rather than keeping
track of a connect_loc_behalf component.
Also ore bag MODule no longer spams sounds when you pick up multiple
ores from the same tile, and only plays the rustling once per move.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Tracking components isn't the best practice, and its something that we
try to avoid. See the original PR for details and reasoning for the ore
scooping changes.
## About The Pull Request
This PR allows golems or anyone with the genetic mutation to benefit
from the effects of golem food if what they're eating is made of a
material tied to ore or sheets with golem food effects.
In layman terms, this means you can deepfry a chair and get golem buffs
that way. The duration also scales with the amount of material consumed,
which also depends on the bite size of the food. Smaller doses translate
to a shorter duration of the effect, while the viceversa is also true
(however with diminishing returns).
Also, you won't take immediate damage from biting, food with items made
of metals and glass stuffed into it if you've the rock eater trait (come
on dude, you eat literal raw diamonds). This has nothing to do with
golem food, but it's one less peeve off the list as I slowly and
occasionally work on material datums and their presence in the game.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Adding some depth to materials and food, albeit not much.
## About The Pull Request
This is was created because I found several rare and exciting canisters
in game and then finding out there is no way to actually construct the
vendor they belong to!...

### This PR:
* Makes all noteable vendors constructable, if you have the canister.
* Adds canisters to syndismokes, syndiechem, liberation station,
magivend, shambler's juice and bombuddy
* Replaces the old tptally random canisters spawner, with a variety of
spawners weighted for power and split according to different themes.
* Adds the new main canister spawner to maint.
### Spawner weights
The random canister spawner from maintenance has a:
* **93,5%** chance to spawn a common station vendor refill(with weights
for wardrobes being somewhat reduced.)
* **6%** chance to spawn a rare and special vendor refill.
* **0.5%** chance to spawn a oddity level., super powerful vendor
refill.
## Why It's Good For The Game

## About The Pull Request
Station alarm consoles now register to all Station Z levels+Areas if
they were created on a station Z level (this doesn't include mining, but
station ones will see mining areas), otherwise will be a "local" console
to that Z level only.
Mostly the same applies for Cyborg/AI, but if they were built on a
non-station Z level then they have their Z level added on top of Station
Z levels, so example Nukie saboteur borgs will see alarms they might
need, while a Golem/Oldstation AI will also be able to see their own
alarms.
Because of how alarms and spawning in worked, Cyborgs/AIs had CentCom's
Z level as something it would detect, so we simply create the mob at the
spawn location rather than on the title screen during Initialization,
fixing that issue as well.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Adds easy multi-z support for station alarms and removes the previous
bandaid of having to deconstruct your board and multitool it or map in
every single station alarm console to allow station alerts (which is
quite silly) which was done in
https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/pull/88343.
Closes https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/issues/61592
Closes https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/issues/83042
Closes https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/issues/69314
I find this solution better since it catches pretty much all use cases
without the need for special subtypes and needing players to actually
know the difference between these things.
## Changelog
🆑
fix: Cyborgs and AIs will now see alerts of the whole station rather
than solely the Z level they were spawned on.

## About The Pull Request
Apparently wall construction code is snowflaked and indented as fuck
(and the same goes for door assemblies). I'm not bothering refactoring
everything with them, only to reduce the indentation, changing a couple
vars and overall making it easier to work with them later. This includes
wall construction not being hardcoded to sheets but include the
possibility to use other kind of stacks as well (if you don't count the
snowflake interaction with iron rods). In layman's terms, this means you
can make walls made out of sand (distinct from sandstone) again.
Also I've done some small changes to the materials storage, so that it
can eject ores too if the material doesn't have a sheet type.
Also, I've been told there may be issues with broken, uninteractable
(probably not properly initialized) glass sheets beside the ORM. I'm not
100% sure about the deets, but it may have something to do with spawning
the glass on the same turf the ORM is listening to, when smelting sand,
causing some race conditions, so let's spawn it in nullspace
## Why It's Good For The Game
While I'm sure there may be more elegant solutions (just take a look at
the wall and door construction code, they both use text2path oh god!),
I'm just here to make things a lil' cleaner and be done with issues with
the fact that sand is made of sand.

Deletes the Bluespace Gas Vendor and accompanying Bluespace Gas Sender
## Why It's Good For The Game
These wall mounts were added as ways to encourage Atmos Techs to
participate in the economy and crew at large. Unfortunately, it's missed
the mark and is unused in 99% of all rounds*.
**I have seen more atmos techs use the bluespace gas sender for exploits
than for its intended use.*
It has been noted that
1. Atmos doesn't need to sell gas to the crew to make money. They can
export gas to cargo to make more money.
2. The crew doesn't really care about gases. They will rarely go out of
their way to acquire them, even if free.
3. Most importantly, most atmos players **like to give out gas for
free** - it's mass producible and seeing people utilize their creations
tend to be its own reward.
4. Even for the atmos techs that want to charge for their products (to
create conflict or whatnot), *you could easily do that by hand via
pre-filling tanks**.
***I have seen more atmos techs make money off of selling pre-filled
tanks than by using the vendor.*
Ultimately, this machine serves no purpose besides bloating wall space
and existing as an atmos exploit vector.
