## About The Pull Request
As before, more fiddling with NTNRC, more bugs.
This time, the same user sending the same message within the same second
would cause this message to spawn a new copy each time the channel was
opened, until the UI was closed and re-opened.
Looking into it, this seemed to be because we would set the `Box`'s
`key` value to the message contents:
<b0d71024c0/tgui/packages/tgui/interfaces/NtosNetChat.jsx (L156)>
Which isn't actually unique.
To fix this, we instead make each channel keep track of an incrementing
`id` number to assign to each message, and convert the `messages` list
to an associative list using those numerical ids stringified.
We don't just use the list index as a key, as we later may want to
target specific messages, so a consistent unique key is important.
This fixes our primary issue.
In the process of making the rest of the code account for this, I
noticed that the NTNRC program header that's supposed to show new
messages in the active channel when the program is idle didn't actually
work.
Just at all.
So I rewrote the entire thing, and it now tracks the last read message's
id rather than the full message, and sets this when you actually
background the program. The rest still runs on process tick, where it
updates the header if there's a new message with a different id on top.
Finally, the header part of the UI wasn't actually updating if there
were no headers, so now it forwards a lack of headers change as well.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Reduces more NTNRC jank.
Good if shit like, actually works.
