## About The Pull Request
Rewrote the planemaster debugger to be more legible and useful. Planes
are now clustered based on their dependants, all buttons have been moved
to the header, connections are highlighted when hovering over nodes and
you can see filter type and blend mode when clicking the node (deleting
a connection is done through a button in the tooltip)
## Why It's Good For The Game
Old planemaster debugger is horrifically jank to use, has broken visual
offsets for all nodes, connections and buttons, and is in a single
thousand line long file.

Xenobio no longer has slimes "warping around", but rather all mobs will
be suctioned up and out of a tube system.
This is functionally identical; the visual aspect is PURELY visual and
as such you can deposit a slime that's still visually being suctioned,
which is intentional for the sake of an easier user experience.
Additionally, slime consoles have a little HUD on the side now that
displays the amount of monkeys & the amount of currently stored slimes
inside of it. Nice for if you don't want to have to guess your current
monkey count.
Slime processors suction a maximum amount of slimes depending on their
matter bin level. This means that at a tier 1 bin it'll be the same as
current, but with a tier 4 you can suck up 4 slimes at a time per
processing tick. Doesn't really do any functionally different stuff
besides lowering the time you need to wait before you can start the
processor.
Monkey Recyclers have purple stripes to visually distinguish them from
meat grinders.

I want a funny claw-machine-esque contraption for xenobio.

## About The Pull Request
This PR:
- Converts all of the blood types into their own datums, which can be
set up to have their own colors, descriptions, and other fun unique
properties. For example, the clown blood that is constantly randomizing
itself.
- Converts all the blood decals into greyscale, which in turn eliminates
the need for separate xeno sprites. They both use the same ones now.
- Audit of blood splatters/gibs/bodyparts/organs to make sure that they
are getting the correct forensic data applied to them.
- For the admins: Adds a clown blood smite.
My primary goal with was to make the appearance of the new sprites look
almost indistinguishable to the original ones.
I consider this a "first pass", as in there are still some further
refactors I would like to do on the backend side, but am satisfied with
it enough to push it forward as a first step towards a better blood
system! I didn't want to do too much at once because of A) fatigue and
B) easier to test things to make sure I'm not breaking something
important this way.
This has been test-merged on Nova for over a week now and has been going
great, so I finally got around to upstreaming the bones to TG. Although
I did test it a bit you may want to TM it just in case I missed some
things when copying it over.
## About The Pull Request
People can now pet held mothroaches and pugs if they want to, or use
items on them, hopefully without causing many issues. After all, it only
took about a couple dozen lines of code to make...
...Oh, did the 527 files changed or the 850~ lines added/removed perhaps
catch your eye? Made you wonder if I accidentally pushed the wrong
branch? or skewed something up big time? Well, nuh uh. I just happen to
be fed up with the melee attack chain still using stringized params
instead of an array/list. It was frankly revolting to see how I'd have
had to otherwise call `list2params` for what I'm trying to accomplish
here, and make this PR another tessera to the immense stupidity of our
attack chain procs calling `params2list` over and over and over instead
of just using that one call instance from `ClickOn` as an argument. It's
2025, honey, wake up!
I also tried to replace some of those single letter vars/args but there
are just way too many of them.

## About The Pull Request
516 requires float layered overlays to be using pixel_w and pixel_z
instead of pixel_x and pixel_y respectively, unless we want
visual/layering errors. This makes sense, as w,z are for visual effects
only. Sadly seems we were not entirely consistent in this, and many
things seem to have been using x,y incorrectly.
This hopefully fixes that, and thus also fixes layering issues. Complete
1:1 compatibility not guaranteed.
I did the lazy way suggested to me by SmArtKar to speed it up (Runtiming
inside apply_overlays), and this is still included in the PR to flash
out possible issues in a TM (Plus I will need someone to grep the
runtimes for me after the TM period to make sure nothing was missed).
After this is done I'll remove all these extra checks.
Lints will probably be failing for a bit, got to wait for [this
update](4b77cd487d)
to them to make it into release. Or just unlint the lines, though that's
probably gonna produce code debt

## About The Pull Request
This PR should fix the problem of small previews in TGUI once and for
all (I hope).
What was causing it? Because TGUI takes a long time to open, that's why
previews were generated broken (small).
On Byond 515 this problem was not so noticeable as the interfaces opened
faster, but with the release of 516 it became much worse.
Previews were generated inside a window that was not yet open, so the
scale was broken, sometimes the window would open before the preview was
done and sent, usually with small interfaces, or when reopening.
I'm not very good at working with signals, and to tell the truth this is
my second experience with them, so I hope I did it right.

[cleans up poor namespacing on light debugging

[Implements a pathfinding visualization
tool](ed91f69ac4)
It holds a set of inputs from the client, and uses them to generate and
display paths from source/target. Left click sets the source, right
click sets the target.
Pathmap support too, if no target is set we display the paths from every
turf in the map to the source, if one is set we build a path TO it from
the source.
I had to add COMSIG_MOB_CLICKON to observers to make this work (tho idk
why it didn't exist already), I also removed the everpresent colorblind
datum from admin datums, only needs to exist if they're using it.

## About The Pull Request
1. Hallucination effects are now tiered
Hallucinations now all have tiers, ranging from common to special.
If you are just hallucinating a teeny bit, you will not experience the
more extreme hallucinations, like bubblegum or your mom.
But if you're hallucinating off your butt, you will be a bit more likely
to experience them.
2. Hallucination rate has been tweaked
Default hallucination cooldown is now 20-80 seconds, up from 10-60
seconds.
However the cooldown will *also* vary depending on just how much you're
hallucinating, going down to 10-40 seconds.
3. RDS is now capped a bit lower (meaning you don't see the higher tiers
like bubblegum).
But I added a preference to uncap it. For the people who actually like
bubblegum visits.
4. If a hallucination fails to trigger, the cooldown will partially
reset. (by 75%)
5. "Fake chat" hallucination will pick more viable subjects.
Fake chat will try to find someone who can actually speak your language,
rather than make a monkey speak mothic or something.
(I may revisit this so if you're super-hallucinating it reverts to old
behavior though.)
6. Adds a hallucination: Fake blood
You hallucinate that you start bleeding, very simple.
7. Adds a hallucination: Fake telepathy
You hallucinate a random telepathic message, similar to fake chat.
8. Adds a hallucination: Eyes in the Dark
A nearby dark turf will have a set of glowing red eyes shine through the
dark. A classic.
9. Adds some new sub-hallucination: PDA ringtone (fake sound), summon
guns/magic (fake item)
Funny prank.
10. Makes mindbreaker a bit more effective at combating RDS.
Pretty much does nothing right now unless you gulp like 50u.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Hallucinations are pretty one note if you experience them for longer
than 10 minutes.
This is due to two fold:
- Many hallucinations are goofy, and not subtle
- Hallucinations trigger very rapidly
You will never fall for a hallucination because in between "You see John
Greytide put the blueprints away", you get your mom yelling at you,
everyone looking like syndies (again), and bubblegum
This pr addresses it by
- Limiting the wacky hallucinations for when you're really off your
gourd
- Reducing the period between triggers
- Adding a few hallucinations
If the wackier hallucinations are reserved for when you're really off
your rocker, this lets the more subtle ones sink in over time, leaves
more room for second guessing
## Changelog
🆑 Melbert
add: Adds 4-5 new hallucinations. Collect them all.
balance: If you are only hallucinating a little bit, the game will
prefer to pick more subtle hallucinations. If you are hallucinating a
ton, it will prefer the more wacky hallucinations.
balance: If you are only hallucinating a little bit, the cooldown
between hallucinations is longer. If you are hallucinating a ton, it
will be shorter.
balance: If a hallucination fails to trigger (such as a deaf person
getting a sound hallucination) the next one will be a lot sooner.
balance: RDS hallucination amount is capped at mid tier hallucinations.
This means bubblegum and co. will be a lot rarer, or will even never
show. HOWEVER, there is now a preference allowing you to uncap your RDS
hallucinations.
balance: Mindbreaker toxin is more effective at suppressing RDS.
balance: Some hallucinations effects have been tweaked up or down
according to the new thresholds. Madness mask as an example.
fix: "Fake Fire" Hallucination works again, and now has a unique message
for if you stop-drop-roll that other people see.

Fixes#89458
Adds a config for auto-deadminning admins who ready up before the round
starts, or click join game after.
The deadminning happens as soon as the button is pressed, not when a job
is selected or the round starts. I figure it's better to do it straight
away since both have opportunities for metainfo to be posted in admin
chat. Before there's admins messing with dynamic config / plotting
events etc. and during the round there's basically everything that gets
posted to admin logs.
I've had to add a typecheck to the auto_deadmin proc, since the lobby
menu technically happens on the centcom Z-level, and there's a pref for
ignoring deadminning on centcom Z, so it checks to see if the admin is a
new player mob.
Changed the old config from auto_deadmin_player to auto_deadmin_always
to make it less deceptive.
Was suggested a pref could be added to do this. I can do that if people
want it maybe, but it's not in this PR at the time of posting it.
Is now a pref

## About The Pull Request
This PR completely rewrites our embedding system in favor of embedding
datum handlers which acts as containers for all embedding-related data
and logic.
Currently embedding logic relies on an element-component-datum triad,
where elements on the items handle embedding logic, singleton datums
store embedding data and components (which get assigned to ***mobs*** in
whom the item embedded) handle pain and the item being ripped out. How
do we access all the procs? By using comsigs as procs, which is really
bad. This code was written back in 2020 when DCS was hot stuff but in
hindsight this implementation was a mistake, as it heavily restricts
custom embedding behaviors unless you're willing to constantly run
GetComponent (bad, ugly, incarnation of evil)
This PR rewrites all that logic to be handled by lazyloaded
``/datum/embedding``, which is stored similarly to current
``/datum/embed_data``. Upon being requested, it is initialized and
assigned to a parent from whom all the logic is handled, from being
embedded to pain and having the item ripped out. On projectiles this
only handles one proc, after which it copies itself down to the shrapnel
item instead and runs the chain further from there.
Ideally, most embedding-related logic now should be handled purely
datum-side - in most cases items should not be hooking up to themselves
like they did before (unless said logic is for when the item is made
sticky or smth) and instead the code should be handled by the embedding
datum (see sholean grapes implementation in this PR). This should allow
us to do fancy stuff like syringe guns embedding syringes into targets
and injecting them that way, and fix some bugs along the way.

## Why It's Good For The Game
Our UI icons are very outdated and compressed, with very large palettes
and odd transparency quirks, making adding new elements or redesigning
current ones quite hard and frustrating. A fresh coat of paint can take
user experience a long way.
As for moved elements, most people either equip things manually or use
the equip hotkey - E button is rather obscure and rarely used, while
drop button makes sense to be located near hands. Action palette just
takes up screen space most of the time, so there's no reason to not hide
it when you don't have any use for it.

## About The Pull Request
This is the first PR in a series attempting to modernize our damage and
armor, both from a code and a gameplay perspective. This part implements
unique attack animations, adds alternate attack modes for items and
fixes some minor oversights.
Items now have unique attack animation based on their sharpness - sharp
items are now swung in an arc, while pointy items are thrust forward.
This change is ***purely visual***, this is not swing combat. (However,
this does assign icon rotation data to many items, which should help
swing combat later down the line).
Certain items like knives and swords now have secondary attacks - right
clicks will perform stabbing attacks instead of slashing for a chance to
leave piercing wounds, albeit with slightly lower damage - trying to
stick a katana through someone won't get you very far!

Turns out that spears acted as oversized knives this entire time, being
SHARP_EDGED instead of SHARP_POINTY - in order for their animations to
make sense, they're now once again pointy (according to comment,
originally they were made sharp because piercing wounds weren't very
threatening, which is no longer the case)
Another major change is that structure damage is now influenced by armor
penetration - I am not sure if this is intentional or not, but attacking
item's AP never applied to non-mob damage.
Additionally, also fixes an issue where attack verbs for you and
everyone else may differ.
## About The Pull Request
Basically just goes through and adds `mouse_over_pointer =
MOUSE_HAND_POINTER` to a bunch of screen elements (player hud and lobby
menu)
Also adds it to very small wall mounted objects like buttons, fire
alarms, and light switches

## Why It's Good For The Game
- Makes interacting with screen elements a bit more tactile
- Makes it a bit easier to click on tiny buttons and such (being able to
know when you're actually hovering the thing)
- Maybe can be expanded to more world objects to indicate they are
clickable vs non-interactable?
