## About The Pull Request
Replaces all instances of `SSblackbox.record_feedback\("tally",
"admin_verb", 1, (.+)\)` with `BLACKBOX_LOG_ADMIN_VERB($1)`
This makes so the funny comment isn't necessary.
It also reveals one location which someone did not heed the comment, the
`debug_controller` proc copy+pasted the line but did not change the
fourth argument. PEOPLE DON'T READ!

## About The Pull Request
Hello friends, I've been on a bit of a lighting kick recently, and I
decided I clearly do not have enough things to work on as it is.
This pr adds angle support to static lights, and a concepting/debug tool
for playing with lights on a map.
Let's start from first principles yeah?
### Why Angled Lights?
Mappers, since they can't actually see a light's effect in editor, tend
to go off gut.
That gut is based more off what "makes sense" then how things actually
work
This means they'll overplace light sources, and also they tend to treat
lights, particularly light "bars" (the bigger ones) as directional.
So you'll have two lights on either sides of a pillar, lights inside a
room with lights outside pointing out, etc.
This has annoying side effects. A lot of our map is overlit, to the
point that knocking out a light does.... pretty much nothing.
I find this sad, and would like to work to prevent it. I think dark and
dim, while it does not suit the normal game, is amazing for vibes, and I
want it to be easier to see that.
Angled lights bring how lights work more in line with how mappers expect
lights work, and avoids bleedover into rooms that shouldn't be bled
into, working towards that goal of mine.
### How Angled Lights?
This is more complex then you'd first think so we'll go step by step
Oh before we start, some catchup from the last time I touched lighting
code.
Instead of doing a lighting falloff calculation for each lighting corner
(a block that represents the resolution of our lights) in view we
instead generate cached lightsheets. These precalculate and store all
possible falloffs for x and y distances from a source.
This is very useful for angle work, since it makes it almost totally
free.
Atoms get 2 new values. light_angle and light_dir
Light angle is the angle the light uses, and light_dir is a cardinal
direction it displays in
We take these values, and inside sheetbuilding do some optional angle
work. getting the center angle, the angle of a pair of coords, and then
the delta between them.
This is then multiplied against the standard falloff formula, and job
done.
We do need some extra fenangling to make this all work nicely tho.
We currently use a pixel turf var stored on the light source to do
distance calculations.
This is the turf we pretend the light source is on for visuals, most
often used to make wall lights work nice.
The trouble is it's not very granular, and doesn't always have the
effect you might want.
So, instead of generating and storing a pixel turf to do our distance
calculations against, we store x and y offset variables.
We use them to expand our working range and sheet size to ensure things
visually make sense, and then offset any positions by them.
I've added a way for sources to have opinions on their offsets too, and
am using them for wall lights.
This ensures the angle calculations don't make the wall behind a light
fulldark, which would be silly.
### Debug Tool?
In the interest of helping with that core problem, lights being complex
to display, I've added a prototyping tool to the game.
It's locked behind mapping verbs, and works about like this.
Once the verb is activated, it iterates over all the sources in the
world (except turfs because those are kinda silly), outlining and
"freezing" them, preventing any future changes.
Then, it adds 3 buttons to the owners of a light source.
The first button toggles the light on and off, as desired.
The third allows you to move the source around, with a little targeting
icon replacing your mouse
The second tho, that's more interesting.
The second button opens a debug menu for that light
There's a lot here, let's go through it.
Bit on the left is a list of templates, which allow you to sample
existing light types (No I have no idea why the background is fullwhite,
need to work on that pre merge)
You can choose one by clicking it, and hitting the upload button.
This replaces your existing lighting values with the template's,
alongside replacing its icon and icon state so it looks right.
There are three types as of now, mostly for categorization. Bar, which
are the larger typically stronger lights, Bulb, which are well, bulbs,
and Misc which could be expanded, but currently just contains floor
lights.
Alongside that you can manually edit the power, range, color and angle
of the focused light.
I also have support for changing the direction of the light source,
since anything that uses directional lighting would also tie light dir
to it.
This isn't *always* done tho, so I should maybe find a way to edit light
dir too.
My hope is this tool will allow for better concepting of a room's
lights, and easier changing of individual object's light values to suit
the right visuals.
### Lemon No Why What
Ok so I applied angle lights to bars and bulbs, which means I am
changing the lighting of pretty much every map in the codebase.
I'm gonna uh, go check my work.
Alongside this I intend to give lighting some depth. So if there's room
to make a space warmer, or highlight light colors from other sources, I
will do that.
(Images as examples)
I also want to work on that other goal of mine, making breaking lights
matter. So I'll be doing what I can to ensure you only need to break one
light to make a meaningful change in the scene.
This is semi complicated by one light source not ever actually reaching
fullbright on its own, but we do what we must because we can.
I'm as I hope you know biased towards darker spaces, I think contrast
has vibes.
In particular I do not think strong lights really suit maintenance.
Most of what is used there are bulbs, so I'm planning on replacing most
uses with low power bulbs, to keep light impacts to rooms, alongside
reducing the amount of lights placed in the main tunnels
**If you take issue with this methodology please do so NOW**, I don't
want to have to do another pass over things.
Oh also I'm saving station maps for last since ruins are less likely to
get touched in mapping march and all.
### Misc + Finishing Thoughts
Light templates support mirroring vars off typepaths using a subtype,
which means all the templates added here do not require updating if the
source type changes somehow. I'd like to expand the template list at
some point, perhaps in future.
I've opened this as a draft to make my intentions to make my changes to
lights known, and to serve as motivation for all the map changes I need
to do.
### Farish Future
I'm unhappy with how we currently configure lights. I would like a
system that more directly matches the idea of drawing falloff curves,
along with allowing for different falloffs for different colors,
alongside extending the idea to angle falloff.
This would make out of engine lighting easier, allow for nicer looking
lights (red to pink, blue to purple, etc), and improve accessibility by
artists.
This is slightly far off, because I have other obligations and it's
kinda complicated, but I'd like to mention it cause it's one of my many
pipedreams.
## Changelog
🆑
add: Added angle lighting, applies it to most wall lights!
add: Adds a lighting prototyping tool, mappers go try it out (it's
locked behind the mapping verb)

## About The Pull Request
Hey there,
A pretty bad bug (#76226) got through, but it was fixed pretty quickly
in #76241 (cf92862daf). I realized that if
we were testing all the away missions, that this could theoretically get
caught and not happen again. Regardless, unit testing gateway missions
has been on my to-do list for a while now, and I finally got it nailed
down.
Basically, we just have a really small "station" map with the bare bones
(_teeny_ bit of fluff, maploading is going to take 30 seconds tops
anyways let me have my kicks) with a JSON map datum flag that causes it
to load all away missions in the codebase (which are all in one folder).
Just in case some admins were planning on invoking the proc on
`SSmapping`, I also decided to gate a `tgui_alert()` behind it because
you never can be too sure of what people think is funny these days (it
really does lock up your game for a second or so at a time).
I also alphabetized the maps.txt config because that was annoying me.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Things that break on production could(?) be caught in unit testing? I
don't know if the linked issue I mentioned above would have been caught
in retrospect, but it's likely to catch more than a few upcoming bugs
(like the UO45 atmospherics thing at the very top) and ensure that these
gateway missions, which tend to be the most neglected part of mapping,
stay bug-free.
This is also helpful in case someone makes a new away mission and wants
to see if stuff's broken. Helps out maptainers a bit because very, very
technically broken mapping will throw up runtimes. Neato.
## Changelog
Nothing that players should be concerned about.
Let me know if there's a better way to approach this, but I really think
that having a super-duper light map with the bare basics to load up
gateway missions and then all nine-ish gateway missions can sequentially
load during init. I can't think of a better way to do it aside from some
really ugly `#ifdef` shit. Also also, it has the added benefit of being
a map that will always load your away mission without touching a single
shred of config (and it's not likely to break if you follow sane
practices such as making your own areas)
## About The Pull Request
Corrects `record_feedback()`'s copy/paste comment.
## Pointless history
Originally being added in e2a8a5e, it kept its name and args for quite a
few years, that was until #32188 which had it renamed to
`record_feedback` and its args pretty much doubled. In between these
times the known copy/paste comment was already around, but that wasn't
updated, until now apparently.

## Changelog
More than a decade ago, these were all coded to use a weird dynamic list
radio broadcasting system to communicate with each other. If there was
any depth that they were planning on creating with this, it didn't come
to fruition, and it instead just wasted a lot of init time.
Removing `post_signal` saves 198.41ms, fired 588 times from lots of
different machinery. Its self cost was 81.44ms.
`broadcast_status`, also removed, was taking 218ms.
I'm pretty sure I'm done with this, but it's hard to tell given the
nature of old radio signal code.
A small self cost of 34.9ms was added in the form of /obj/Initialize
checking id_tag to set in a global list. This could be optimized away by
tagging everything that does use id_tag, but it's a loooot and I think
this is just a useful mechanism to have. Not worth it IMO.
The "Check Atmos Chamber Devices" verb has been removed. Everything it
did *should* be replicated by runtimes on Initialize, which is both more
obvious to mappers and shows up in unit tests since we spawn every ruin.
## About The Pull Request
This replaces needless GLOB.machines with more precise lists whenever
one existed, plus adding a new one for CTF machines.
## Why It's Good For The Game
GLOB.machines holds every single /obj/machinery in the game, so checking
the whole list for stuff is pretty big. This aims to cut that down by
using smaller lists whenever possible. I also gave CTF a new list
because it checked machines very often.
## Changelog
Nothing player facing.
* Removes overlay queuing, saves 6/7 seconds of initialize. Lightly modifies stat tracking macros
So we have this overlay queuing system right? It's build with the assumption
that the "add to overlay list" operation is real expensive, and is
thus useful to queue removals or additions.
It turns out that it just isn't, at least during init. In my testing the
operation of queuing took LONGER then the actual overlay add/remove did.
That's ignoring the cost of the subsystem's work.
I've also modified part of the stat tracking macro, since it took a good
bit of cpu time, and didn't seem to well, do anything. So far as I can
tell it always evaluates to 1
Hey there,
It's mostly on the tin. It really looked kinda ugly spitting out the information + the drawing right into chat, so let's wrap it in a nice examine_block to keep it looking good. I added some line breaks because I thought it also aided the formatting.
About The Pull Request
Reorganizes the entire icons/mob folder.
Added the following new subfolders:
nonhuman-player (this was initially just called "antag", but then I realized guardians aren't technically antags)
simplemob
silicon
effects (for bloodstains, fire, etc)
simplemob/held-pets (for exactly that -- I wasn't sure if this should go in inhands instead)
species/monkey
Moves the following stuff:
All human parts moved into species, with moth, lizard, monkey, etc parts moved to corresponding subfolders. Previously, there were some moth parts in mob/species/moth, and others just loose in mob. Other species were similar.
icemoon, lavaland, and jungle folders made into subfolders of simplemob
All AI and silicon stuff, as well as Beepsky et al. into the silicon folder, simplemobs into the simplemob folder, aliens into the nonhuman-player folder, etc.
Split up animal_parts.dmi into two bodyparts.dmi which were put in their respective folders (species/alien and species/monkey)
Code changes:
Filepath changes to account for all of this
Adds a check when performing surgery on monkeys and xenos, because we can no longer assume their limbs are in the same file
Turns some hardcoded statues and showcases that were built into maps into objects instead
Things I'd like to do in the future but cant be assed right now:
Remove primarily-antag sprites from simplemob/mob.dmi (Revenant, Morph, etc.) and put them in the nonhuman-player folder
Split up mutant_bodyparts.dmi into different files for Tizirans, Felinids, monkeys, etc and put them in their own folders. Those may have once been meant primarily for mutated humans but that's now how they're being used right now.
* Obstructed Vents and Scrubbers? - Debug Them Out!
Hello there,
In _May of 2014_, Ikarrus wrote the following (here)[https://tgstation13.org/phpBB/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=327]:
"Avoid placing scrubbers and air vents under objects. It's better to leave them in the open and visible so people can use them."
How far we have fallen. However, during a review I did in the last week, I accidentally let one of these (in multiple occurrences!) slip past me:
I don't want that to happen again. It's especially hard when they're under tables, or big bulky lockers, and under computers sometimes! They're not obvious to the human eye, so we must rely on technology. This creates a new Debug Mapping Verb that will flag out any vent, scrubber, or canister port that is being obstructed by an invalid object (directionals and undertiles are excluded). It will be a gargantuan effort unlike anything you've seen to get rid of all of them, but at least this is the first stone in a grand arch.

Main Takeaways For Mappers:
Use monitored pathed atmos devices very carefully. Also dont put atmos_sensors willy nilly. They are used to hook to atmos control monitors.
We want to keep at most one device broadcasting for each of the atmos sensor, inlets, and outlets. Run the mapping verb Check Atmos Chamber Devices to be sure, though this might not catch everything.
Some of the warning are pretty harmless. For example if you have reconnected the "station atmos monitor" and you get no listener for distro/waste loop warning, it's safe to ignore.
I don't know what the maptainer policy is on making new subtypes for offstation content, but if you do please branch off the general ones instead of the specific gas ones. If you aren't making a new subtype, varedit the general ones too.
About The Pull Request:
Need Would prefer this to be merged before #65271 (In game atmos guide).
Not strictly necessary, just makes me sleep better knowing the handbook wont die alongside the rest of the UI.
Fixes#36668 (Atmos Monitoring Consoles don't update it's sensors to the new tank after reconnect())
Fixes#32122 (Mix console fucked after reconnecting it)
Also made the distro meter thing broadcast more info instead of just the pressure, because I'm sure nobody would care and it would make my life easier.
A small high-level overview in case this breaks again in the future:
A signal datum (not DCS) is sent by the atmospheric devices (injectors and vents) and will be received by the atmos computers. The data is then stored at the monitor object and then passed to the UI. This initial signal is sent by `broadcast_signal()`, called by `atmos_init()`.
New sensors/vents (if you can actually get them in game, still only adminspawn/wrenchables afaik) will also initiate the conversation if atmos_init() is called, so it works fine. This means you need to unwrench and re-wrench the devices if you adminspawn them though, ugh.
In case of a newly built computer, it needs to be the one that prompt the data to the devices, so we send a request signal. This is a bit inefficient since it doesnt work off of callbacks and assocs like DCS, but won't really matter since we're doing this rarely.
We only talk with the injectors and vents when necessary here, while sensors and meters keep beeping with every process_atmos() tick so they rarely break.
Why It's Good For The Game:
Messy code gone (debatable).
Refactored the atmos control console devices. The ones that hook to the big turf chambers.
Distro meter now broadcast the whole gasmix info instead of just pressure to the monitors.
Lavaland syndie's atmos chamber vents are now actually configurable. Moved a few things around to accomodate this.
Lavalannd syndie chambers hooked to distro and moved distro pipe to layer2
atmos monitors can detect reactions now.
Some minor code changes to how anomaly refinery and implosion compressor show the gas info. No changes expected, report if bug.
recoded checks for atmos chamber abnormalities in debug verbs.
There is still the potential for false positives since the way diagonal
cameras were made didn't exactly line up with where their direction was.
However, this brings functionality back to parity with before the
dir-sanity PR.
Adds mapping debug verbs that pull info about how many food/stacks are in the world and on the station.
Puts them into happy little html uis to make em easier to read.
A stacks amount is it's actual amount, so the amount of items inside it, rather then the amount of stack groups
its such a stupid fucking name, the verbs are all mapping related, they are all in the mapping tab, nobody knows about them because its called debug verbs for some reason instead of mapping verbs
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.

Adds a MAPTEXT macro that wraps the given text in the maptext class, the thing we use for Runechat to make it so you can actually read it. Everything that sets maptext now uses this.
Implements the ?. operator, replacing code like A && A.B with A?.B
BYOND Ref:
When reading A?.B, it's equivalent to A && A.B except that A is only evaluated once, even if it's a complex expression like a proc call.
Removes the singularity generator and the particle accelerator. The former had no sprite, and the latter only existed because of a leftover type path. This does not affect gameplay at all.
Removes the "Start Singularity" verb that was only intended for debug use.
Fixes#53508.
Replaces like 70-80% of 0 and such, as a side effect cleaned up a bunch of returns
Edit: Most left out ones are in mecha which should be done in mecha refactor already
Oh my look how clean it is
