Borrows /tg/ html stripping code.
Ghosts are the first to be given this boon, they now have to deliberately emote things like "Spooky man and it#36&;s friends type crap".
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().
It's toggleable as client preference.
Displays dots(codersprite) near the mob when he starts typing a message.
Detects chatline me and say via checking contents.
Detects shortcut input me an say via hacky wrapper that's called now instead of direct say/me verbs.
Cleans out the nonverbal language check from say_understands(), which
now is responsible for language only.
Nonverbal languages have a chance of causing an emote when used.
Adds sign languages, which have no verbal component.
Created a helper proc /proc/is_mentor(client) use this when determining if someone is a mentor and they aren't the usr of the proc (rights_check uses usr)
Mentors will no longer hear ghosts while playing
Mentors will no longer see orange text around names in check_player_age panel if they have special_roles
Mentors will no longer be able to tell players with special roles through the use of player_panel
Mentors will no longer be able to aghost, use antagHUD, then return to their bodies.
Whether or not someone can understand a language is now handled entirely
by the language check in mob/say_understands(). The way the old code was
written makes me think it came before languages were implemented.
universal_understand = 1 now allows player-controlled mobs to understand what everybody is saying without necessarily allowing them to talk back intelligibly. Mice have universal_understand = 1 by default.
* Both admins and regular players can toggle deadchat off
* Having deadchat on still requires you to be a ghost or an admin/mod to be able to /see/ deadchat
