Converts many proc overrides to properly use list/modifiers, fixes some spots where modifiers should have been passed, calls modifiers what it is, a lazy list, and cleans up some improper arg names like L, M, C, and N. Oh and I think there was a spot where someone was trying to pass M.name in as a string, but forgot to wrap it in []. I fixed that too.
About The Pull Request
This PR removes intents and replaces them with a combat mode. An explanation of what this means can be found below
Major changes:
Disarm and Grab intents have been removed.
Harm/Help is now combat mode, toggled by F or 4 by default
The context/verb/popup menu now only works when you do shift+right-click
Right click is now disarm, both in and out of combat mode.
Grabbing is now on ctrl-click.
If you're in combat mode, and are currently grabbing/pulling someone, and ctrl-click somewhere else, it will not release the grab (To prevent misclicks)
Minor interaction changes:
Right click to dissasemble tables, racks, filing cabinets (When holding the right tool to do so)
Left click to stunbaton, right click to harmbaton
Right click to tip cows
Right click to malpractice surgery
Right click to hold people at gunpoint (if youre holding a gun)
Why It's Good For The Game
Intents heavily cripple both the code and the UI design of interactions. While I understand that a lot of people will dislike this PR as they are used to intents, they are one of our weakest links in terms of explaining to players how to do specific things, and require a lot more keypresses to do compared to this.
As an example, martial arts can now be done without having to juggle 1 2 3 and 4 to switch intents quickly.
As some of you who saw the first combat mode PR, the context menu used to be disabled in combat mode. In this version it is instead on shift-right click ensuring that you can always use it in the same way.
In this version, combat mode also no longer prevents you from attacking with items when you would so before, as this was something that was commonly complained about.
The full intention of this shift in control scheme is that right click will become "secondary interaction" for items, which prevents some of the awkward juggling we have now with item modes etcetera.
Changelog
cl Qustinnus
add: Intents have been replaced with a combat mode. For more info find the PR here: #56601
/cl
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.
Sparks no longer lag, projectile beams move super smoothly, same with mobs and whatnot. This also allows for easy expansion into directional lights, field-of-view, wee-woo rotating lights or whatever.
It does have a downside: things right-clicked or checked through the alt+click tab will show the light overlay:
This is a BYOND limitation, very well worth it IMO.
🆑
add: Smooth movable lighting system implemented. Projectiles, sparks, thrown flashlights or moving mobs with lights should be much smoother and less laggy.
balance: Light sources no longer stack in range, though they still do in intensity.
/🆑
Defined all the existing light_color values.
Moved their definitions to colors.dm
Made white the default color. It was so already, but that was very obscured.
Moved the atom light-related variables to the atom definition.
Wrapped changes to variables such as light_color into procs that report the event through signals.
Moved the light_on variable to the atom level, also adding a signal for its changing, to represent toggling lights.
Cleaned up a little bit of code in where new variables were defined before redefinitions.
This is all atomization to reduce changes in #52413
None of this affect gameplay at all, it's all code cleaning and refactoring.
There's more colors to standardize, a search for color = will find lots of targets, and I see little need to have both the LIGHT_COLOR and COLOR patterns, but I don't want to make this PR bigger than it already is.

tweak: The crusher kit now includes an advanced mining scanner.
tweak: The resonator kit now includes webbing and a small extinguisher.
tweak: The minebot kit now includes a minebot passthrough kinetic accelerator module, which will cause kinetic accelerator shots to pass through minebots. The welding goggles have been replaced with a welding helmet, allowing you to wear mesons and still be able to repair the minebot without eye damage.
feature: You can now install kinetic accelerator modkits on minebots. Some exceptions may apply. Crowbar to remove modkits.
balance: Minebots now shoot 33% faster by default(3 seconds to 2). The minebot cooldown upgrade still produces a fire rate of 1 second.
balance: Minebots are now slightly less likely to sit in melee like idiots, and are now healed for 15 instead of 10 when welded.
balance: Sentient minebots are penalized; they cannot have armor and melee upgrades installed, and making them sentient will override those upgrades if they were installed. In addition, they move very slightly slower and have their kinetic accelerator's cooldown increased by 1 second.
/cl
the basic scanner sucks ass and nobody wants to use it, it's actually hilarious
also in those stats: minebot picked a mere 6 more times than the conscription kit, because it's an idiot drone, easy to accidentally hit, and did I mention how much it likes going into melee?
tbh it's quite possible the extra buffs aren't needed, just the passthrough module, but it's better to go a little too far rather than not far enough.

One is another small legion, but it can infest corpses, meaning it will revive other legions if you don't kill it first.
The other is a legion that creates legions. I imagine it as something super edgy like a golem made up of legions melded together.
I need sprites for both of these
Added defines for environment_smash
* Removes hacky see in darkness invisibility bullshit, uses planes.
Also removed the use of invisibility for ghosts of others, instead using override images.
Per client lighting visibility now has 4 levels, all on, all off, and two midways, this allows for things to be able to see in the dark while still being able to see what is dark and what has light, ghosts and aliens and other shit can cycle between all 4, other things were given one of the 3 values depending.
