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.
This PR kills off the transforming subtype of /obj/item/melee and replaces it with a component to handle the transforming behavior, /datum/component/transforming.
The transforming component handles updating the variables of an item when it's transformed. Things like force, sharpness, whetstone force bonus, and attack verbs. Similar to the two-handed component, but instead of transforming into a two-hander it remains a one handed weapon.
The "nemesis" behavior (dealing addition damage to certain factions) of the transforming subtype was moved to the cleaving saw only, since it was the only transforming item that used it. In the future, this can be made into a bespoke element/component as well.
The following weapons and items have been updated to use this component:
Energy Swords / Sabers / Bananium Energy Sword
Energy Circular Saw
Energy Dagger
Energy Axe
Toy Energy Sword
Holographic Energy Sword
Switchblade
Advanced Medical Tools (Laser scalpel, Mechanical Pinches, Searing Tool)
Advanced Engineering Tools (Hand Drill, Jaws of Life / Syndicate Jaws of Life)
Combat Wrench
Cleaving Saw
Telescopic Batons / Contractor Batons
Roasting Stick
Telescopic Riot Shield
Energy Shield / Bananium Energy Shield
This PR also touches up the code around the various above items.
Wooden bats are 2nd best melee weapon in game, just next to stun batons. They cost 5 wooden planks which makes them ridiculously cheap and available to everyone, and the worst thing about them is how easily they can just stunlock people out of nowhere. I did what I believe was the best way to balance them out
Implements appropriate signal handlers for /obj/item/proc/attack_secondary() - Secondary item attacks now send signals and signal handlers can now cancel the attack chain, continue it or move to the primary attack chain.
Adds a kneecapping element.
Kneecapping element replaces the item's secondary attack with an aimed attack at the kneecaps under certain circumstances. If these circumstances are not met, the secondary attack chain will continue as normal with the item's normal secondary attack.
Element is incompatible with non-items. Requires the parent item to have a force equal to or greater than WOUND_MINIMUM_DAMAGE. Also requires that the parent can actually get past pre_secondary_attack without the attack chain cancelling. Funnily enough, the Element doesn't require a blunt weapon. If admins add it to sharp or pointy weapons, they get the same aimed attack but with sharp and pointy wounds instead - Because all the Element does is add a hefty wounding modifier.
Kneecapping attacks have a wounding bonus between severe and critical+10 wound thresholds. Without some serious wound protecting armour this all but guarantees a wound of some sort. The attack is directed specifically at a limb and the limb takes the damage.
Requires the attacker to be aiming for either leg zone, which will be targetted specifically. They will than have a 3-second do_mob before executing the attack.
Kneecapping requires the target to either be on the floor, immobilised or buckled to something.
Passing all the checks will cancel the entire attack chain for the Element to handle attacking logic.
This Element has been added to the baseball bat. Any other items that wish to implement its functionality in the future are free to.
Converts most spans into span procs. Mostly used regex for this and sorted out any compile time errors afterwards so there could be some bugs.
Was initially going to do defines, but ninja said to make it into a proc, and if there's any overhead, they can easily be changed to defines.
Makes it easier to control the formatting and prevents typos when creating spans as it'll runtime if you misspell instead of silently failing.
Reduces the code you need to write when writing spans, as you don't need to close the span as that's automatically handled by the proc.
(Note from Lemon: This should be converted to defines once we update the minimum version to 514. Didn't do it now because byond pain and such)
This adds a rare-ish negative station trait that gives Pun Pun a weapon, fills their heart with anger, and bloodies up the location they spawn in. (Yes the weapon is even more rarely a gun)
A request for one of the weapons to be a sign meant that a random sign type was added here as well.

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.

Changes the references of borg module (type) to model, adds a file for robot declarations and one for model declarations. Basically trying to make the code layout a little more sane.
Initially changed them to 'configurations' but I prefer model; its meaning is closer to module than configuration and avoids confusion with actual config.
## About The Pull Request
Currently, there are 2 "Moonlight Greatsword" variants placed on a station maps - Delta and Kilo. Delta has varedited nullrod variant, and Kilo has varedited baseball bat variant. Neither of these are ideal - Delta variant is getting rushed every other round for it's antimagic properties, and Kilo variant is quite odd choice for a sharp greatsword. Additionally, them being directly varedited in the map does not help their case either.
Thats why I have replaced both with a new item to solve all these issues - a new sharp weapon with no antimagic and stats of a slightly stronger knife.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Less direct map varedits and no more cheap antimagic.
Being hit by the Flesh to Stone makes you bleed immune to prevent you from getting petrified while bleeding, and bleeding out while turned into stone. However, it doesn't make you vulnerable when you get unpetrified. This is a bug. This also makes bleedsuppress into a trait, as both is broken and should be a trait.

Title. Changed the component backend code slightly to allow a single component to hold the total score instead of spawning new components. This should fix cases, such as material stacks without the MATERIAL_NO_EFFECTS flag, where multiple set_costum_materials calls can be made and new beauty components spawned.
Turns the speargun from the syndikit bundle into a bolt action rifle instead of a pnuematic cannon.
The spears the rifle fires embeds using the new bullet embedding system by Ryll. The spears do a lot of fucking damage.
The new bundle includes:
The Ballistic Harpoon Gun
The weapon is a single shot rifle that can be loaded with harpoons. The rifle, being bolt action, requires pulling back the bolt, loading the new harpoon, then locking the bolt every time you wish to fire the weapon. This is more busy work than the pnuematic cannon version, but more reliable in functionality without any messy business with throwing.
The harpoons do 60 force, have a high wound chance against unarmored targets and very high embed chance, with a 100% against unarmored targets. They also have considerable armor piercing at 50, letting you nearly entirely shoot through a ballistic vest.
The weapon is essentially a powered-up single shot mosin or a significantly more powerful improvised shotgun filled with slugs.
The Quiver
Now a bag that goes on your belt. It holds up to 40 harpoons for your harpoon gun. This change was done because the harpoons cannot be retrieved, unlike the magspears, which were simply hacky ninja stars and could be pulled out with surgical tools/wirecutters. Previously you had 20 magspears, which because of their retrievable nature lasted a little longer than you would expect.
Sprites
New back sprites for the harpoon gun, ensuring nobody is missing it when you have it. Additionally, the Mosin Nagant now has it's back sprite as a suit storage sprite.
New sprite for the quiver.

This turns wheelys into a skateboard subtype so they are no longer a copy paste of old skateboard code. They have lower stability compared to skateboards.
I've also made a whole bunch of small adjustments in the process to make skateboard code cleaner and more modular, such as turning the improvised skateboard to its own subtype so that construction steps don't need to be overwritten for all subtypes
Adds two subtypes of wheelys:
-Rollerskates: more stable than wheelys but slow you down when the wheels are retracted
-Skishoes: For skiing! Only work on snow, obviously
I wanted to add some fun alternatives to skateboards with their own drawbacks, and the ski shoes were an opportunity to do something fun for icemoon maps
Replaces like 70-80% of 0 and such, as a side effect cleaned up a bunch of returns

Adds SIGNAL_HANDLER, a macro that sets SHOULD_NOT_SLEEP(TRUE). This should ideally be required on all new signal callbacks.
Adds BLOCKING_SIGNAL_HANDLER, a macro that does nothing except symbolize "this is an older signal that didn't necessitate a code rewrite". It should not be allowed for new work.
This comes from discussion around #52735, which yields by calling input, and (though it sets the return type beforehand) will not properly return the flag to prevent attack from slapping.
To fix 60% of the yielding cases, WrapAdminProcCall no longer waits for another admin's proc call to finish. I'm not an admin, so I don't know how many behinds this has saved, but if this is problematic for admins I can just make it so that it lets you do it anyway. I'm not sure what the point of this babysitting was anyway.
Requested by @optimumtact.
