Y0SH1M4S73R 63e33bd709 Makes mutant bodyparts and mutcolors into editable genetic traits (plus a whole shitload of otherwise out of scope code improvements because I just HAD to touch old code) (#59636)
I noticed that various nonhuman body features can't be changed using genetics. I corrected this by adding a block to character genomes allowing you to edit features in the DNA console.

Datum Component System (DCS)

Concept

Loosely adapted from /vg/. This is an entity component system for adding behaviours to datums when inheritance doesn't quite cut it. By using signals and events instead of direct inheritance, you can inject behaviours without hacky overloads. It requires a different method of thinking, but is not hard to use correctly. If a behaviour can have application across more than one thing. Make it generic, make it a component. Atom/mob/obj event? Give it a signal, and forward it's arguments with a SendSignal() call. Now every component that want's to can also know about this happening.
