It is a ghost-time preference that doesn't get saved. Admins see anonymous ghosts with a * next to their key. People talking in dead bodies are now always seen only with the name of their body (admins see their keys with a ^).
This is mainly for wizard and cult rounds, where it is important to know that a wizard/cultist is watching. The announcement was added for most other types of leaving/joining the ghost realm. Admin ghost doesn't get announced for obvious reasons.
The examine, pull, and point verbs now below to the mob instead of all atoms. Based on discussion here: http://www.byond.com/forum/?post=1326139&page=2#comment8198716
As a bonus ghosts can now point. Ghost pointing should only be visible to other ghosts unless made visible by cult activities.
A jukebox which alters the ambient sound in the current area and plays it with 100% probability.
Leaving the area stops the ambient sound.
Entering the area resumes playing the ambient sound.
First pass on major conversion of xenomorphs to a human subspecies. Additional condensing of various redundant mob verbs.
Converted larva and diona to their own class, collapsed the rest of xenomorphs into a human species, other stuff.
Completely removed attack_alien(). Still have to reimplement some of the lost behavior for human/alien.
Reapplies lost attack_alien() functionality other than tackling/caressing.
Further alien/humanoid cleanup and xenospawn fix-ups. Also uncommented caste verbs.
Removed half-finished abilities system since species.dm handles it.
All xenomorphs functionality should be working now, other than the HUD, tackling and the xenomorph balance issues.
Added icons for xenomorph castes, moved broadcast languages into datums, removed alien_talk and robot_talk vars.
Merged with organ removal code.
Reapplied verbs to simple_animals/slimes. Updated species definitions to have appropriate organs.
Readded tackle as a human verb.
Borer changes regarding brain removal.
Working on moving the human HUD to the species datum a bit. Mixed results.
Moved Cortical Link to a language, added borer husks.
Tidied up the HUD stuff. Still need to make it rebuild properly when species is changed, but this will do for no
Compile fix, forgot the DME.
Fixed up ventcrawl, added new organ mechanics for dionaea.
Fixed up some overlooked sections causing mobs without brains to die immediately.
Fixed up plasma generation for queens, bugs with organs, force_organ issues with set_species().
This was an issue because it meant that not having hand or feet
protection reduced the player's protection from full body effects much
more than it should have, and meant that not having your hands protected
was just as bad as not having your chest protected.
Turns announcements into a datum based system to allow a variety of configurations.
Current configuration options include:
Admin logging
Which sound that should play when announced, if any
If the announcement should be stored as a newscast
Request console/standard announcements currently match priority announcements, but have a smaller style/footprint.
Player announcements now include the assignment and name of the person (or the id rather) who made it.
Have currently only updated the request console and all announcements which previously used captain_announce().
Affected automated announcements, such as shuttle messages, should be exactly the same as before.
Before: multiple screen_shake's could queue up prior to screenshake being set on the mob setting
oldeye on the last one to queue up to be the random location from the previous screen shake
so sometimes peoples clients were stuck on a location instead of back on the mob.
Now we set screenshake before the spawn so we don't spawn up multiple screen_shakes on the same mob.
Test: Be ghost, hammer the spawn meteors secret 10 times or so, watch as your camera returns back to your mob.
Yay.
Also makes setting a thrown atom's throwing var the responsibility of
the handler, so that impact handling code can decide if the thrown atom
should keep on going.
= Giant Spiders =
- Nurses spin webs which impede progress, bundle items and mobs up in cocoons, lay eggs to create spiderlings
- Nurses are slow and weak, but their bite has a chance to paralyse the victim
- Spiderlings skitter about and eventually grow into giant spiders.
- Spiderlings will ventcrawl, so they can spread over the station pretty fast.
- Hunters are fast, have decent health and the most effective poison
- Guards are medium speed but the health and direct damage
- The poison of hunters and guards can cause hallucinations if they bite you
= Farm animals =
- Cows can be milked or butchered for a large supply of meat. Sadists can also tip them over (with intent_help).
- Goats can also be milked, but have a nasty temperament.
- Chicks grow up to be chickens, who lay eggs and continue the cycle. But where did it start? (they're very noisy).
- All three are orderable via QM.
My changes:
- Added a spider infestation event.
- Optimized code with spiders and simple_animals.
- Made a /hostile/retaliate type which will only fight back when hurt. Based on Cael's code.
- Added some farm animals on the map.
- Changed events, added a setup() proc which can let you setup variables or the event. Made the event only kill itself when it has called, announce(), start() and end().
- Brainrot will only need alkysine as a cure.
- Communication blackout will always be silent.
- Changed some admin buttons to use the new event system.
- Added a forceEvent proc which you can use when you enable debug verbs.

This means that aiming for the head with a gun only makes sense from a short distance or when the target is restrained. Otherwise, you're likely to miss unless aiming for the chest.
Only happens when the target is neither laying nor restrained. In this case, there are various chances to miss the targetted organ, and either hit nothing, or a different organ.
I've tested it a fair bit, but there may be bugs, so please report those if you run into them.
Added an ismetroidadult() helper
Improved L6 code.
Made the syndie shuttle console impervious to bullets.
Made mirrors breakable.

Replaced the old syndicates in the new ones in all the away missions.
Removed a now unused "issyndicate" proc.
Ported the obstacle smashing over to hostile animals. This means carp will attempt to break into escape and stuff now. Scary! (I can make this syndicate only again if it becomes a problem)

Fixes issue 526. MMI-Mech issues
MMIs can now change intent. There's no feedback, but they can at least function properly now in mechs.

-Cameras won't shock you anymore, when cutting the power wire.
-Cultists cannot be gibbed by placing more runes that is allowed, instead it says no and to clear any unused runes.

A plea to admins: Dont fucking spawn these everywhere, they're meant to be used as badguys in away missions, not for you to fuck up every round by spawning 70 of them.
Clowns also drop a real (lootable) body on death.
Added new corpse types. Syndicates as well as several civillian jobs.
Added a new area/copied a shuttle icon over into floors as part of work on my map.

Moved some of the static overlays such as the dither effects, druggy effect and blurry-eyes into datum/global_hud. Meaning that only one object is instanced per server rather than per mob. It reduces on code.
Commented out a green and red overlay which aren't used, which were being instanced for every mob.
