## About The Pull Request
This PR is a re-pr of ##70522 , with some tweaks:
Notably:
- Wavespeak is not a say override, but instead uses a mindlink. Meaning
carp and space dragons can still talk verbally, but they can also use
telepathy to talk to all carp and the dragon.
- I would refactor Mind Linker a bit further to be a full datum rather
than a component but that's for another time.
- Removed the gravity aura component in favor of using the existing
forced gravity proximity monitor.
- Also fixed a bug involving that. Lol.
- Minor refactoring around the place.
- Reduced the volume on a lot of space dragon sounds.
- Edited the roundend report for Space Dragons to collate all entries
into one per player.

## Why It's Good For The Game
Space dragon still plays pretty "play lame win game" right now, the
optimal strategy for them is to find the cheesiest spot for a portal and
spam their stun / fire breath to make it unreachable.
I was a fan of the original PR so I updated it and brought it back.
## Changelog
🆑 IndieanaJones, Melbert
balance: Space Dragon can no longer choose its rift locations freely,
and instead is given 5 pre-determined locations to pick from instead
balance: Space Dragon itself has been buffed in order to support a more
confrontational playstyle, however its wing gust now requires a line of
sight to targets in order to affect them.
balance: Player Space Carp from rifts now have buffed health, but
reduced object damage values. They also gain a temporary speed boost
when hit by Space Dragon's fire breath instead of taking damage.
balance: Carp rift spawn times have been reduced, the healing AOE is now
a 3x3 instead of a 1x1, and apply normal gravity in a large radius
around them
balance: Space Dragon and rift carps now communicate on a private mind
link channel via action button similar to Raw Prophets and Slimepeople.
fix: Fixed Gravity Generator forced gravity not applying.
fix: Intern Announcer will no longer replace Space Dragon announcements.
qol: The roundend report for space dragons now collates all players who
played a carp into one entry, rather than one per carp spawned.
qol: Space Dragon sounds are much less ear piercingly loud.

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.
