Updates Bump() code.
Intents now use constants.
Simple animals can now use languages without overriding say().
There is now a difference between being able to smash normal and reinforced walls.
Reworks simple_animal/attackby so that constructs don't need to override it simply to add damage resistance.
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().
Standardization of the object tree and some modified functionality.
Moved a lot of storage/*_kit and similar boxes to storage/box/* ; most of these can now be found in boxes.dm. First aid kits remain a separate item type.
Replacement Light boxes pick up lights (for example broken ones) when used on them
Moved weapon/secstorage to storage/secure
Moved plant bags, ore satchel, trash bag, and sheet snatcher to storage/bag, in bags.dm
Fixed reagent_containers and snacks to pass through attackby() so the use_to_pickup code works. This affects plant bags, trash bags, and pill bottles.
Dice packs are now pill bottles, and all pill bottles can pick up dice.
Added error handling to uplink/generate_menu() so that one mistyped string doesn't bork the whole syndie uplink menu, since strings cannot be type-checked at compile time.
Cigarette packs and crayon boxes are now storage/fancy, however they retain existing update_icon() code.
Added a comment to storage.dm so that future people know where to look for use_to_pickup and allow_quick_gather code.
Updated all maps.
I've tried to test this thoroughly but I wouldn't be surprised if there were a few lingering issues. Try not to panic if you encounter any.

Failsafe now checks the lighting_controller too. It will restart it if it doesn't progress for 5 cycles (same as MC)
datum/failsafe is now datum/controller/failsafe
The probability of lights breaking after spawn was reduced from tube:10 and bulb:25 to tube:2 bulb:5

machine.process() now uses a return value to remove itself from the processing machines list. This is more efficient and will help reduce costs especially at round start where some 5000+ machines were removed from the list using first-find. Now there is no searching involved. Instead of machines.Remove(src) just do .=PROCESS_KILL that will return the flag to the proc which called it (the MC) and trigger its removal from the list. If you're deleting something don't even bother removing it from the machines list, there is no need to.
Simplified the last_processed stuff for the MC. It's now a single variable rather than 3. It is simply a typepath rather than a reference to an object (this is so it works even if said object is deleted)
MC stats in admin status_panels now show the length of the processing lists (indicated by #). I've just realised I forgot to mention what the abbreviations are:
The less obvious ones are: Dis=diseases; Net=pipes; Pnet=powernets; Mch=Machines; Tick=the game-mode ticker.
Beach-water now uses an overlay image rather than a separate object.
Fixed a typo in the shuttle console.
Hydroponics trays no longer use first-find within their process() for checking the plant is in the tray (why is that even there anyway? talk about lazy)
Removed some junk/placeholder procs like organ/proc/process() return
Removed newscasters from the processing machines lists.

Comments for lighting:
Like sd_DAL (what we used to use), it changes the shading overlays of areas by splitting each type of area into sub-areas
by using the var/tag variable and moving turfs into the contents list of the correct sub-area.
Unlike sd_DAL however it uses a queueing system. Everytime we call a change to opacity or luminosity
(through SetOpacity() or SetLuminosity()) we are simply updating variables and scheduling certain lights/turfs for an
update. Actual updates are handled periodically by the lighting_controller. This carries additional overheads, however it
means that each thing is changed only once per lighting_controller.processing_interval ticks. Allowing for greater control
over how much priority we'd like lighting updates to have. It also makes it possible for us to simply delay updates by
setting lighting_controller.processing = 0 at say, the start of a large explosion, waiting for it to finish, and then
turning it back on with lighting_controller.processing = 1.
Unlike our old system there is a hardcoded maximum luminosity. This is to discourage coders using large luminosity values
for dynamic lighting, as the cost of lighting grows rapidly at large luminosity levels (especially when changing opacity
at runtime)
Also, in order for the queueing system to work, each light remembers the effect it casts on each turf. This is going to
have larger memory requirements than our previous system but hopefully it's worth the hassle for the greater control we
gain. Besides, there are far far worse uses of needless lists in the game, it'd be worth pruning some of them to offset
costs.
Known Issues/TODO:
admin-spawned turfs will have broken lumcounts. Not willing to fix it at this moment
mob luminosity will be lower than expected when one of multiple light sources is dropped after exceeding the maximum luminosity
Shuttles still do not have support for dynamic lighting (I hope to fix this at some point)
No directional lighting support. Fairly easy to add this and the code is ready.
When opening airlocks etc, lighting does not always update to account for the change in opacity.
Explosions now cause lighting to cease processing temporarily.
Moved controller datums to the code/controllers directory. I plan on standardising them.
"Master","Ticker","Lighting","Air","Jobs","Sun","Radio","Supply Shuttle","Emergency Shuttle","Configuration","pAI" controller datums can be accessed via the debug controller verb (used to be the debug master controller verb)
Supply shuttle now uses a controller datum. Shuttles tend to arrive up to 30 seconds late, this is not a bug.

-TCommsat machines no longer use their Z level to check if they can receive the signal or not. Instead, they use listening_level. It defaults to 0 for machines that don't change the value. If it is 0 when the telecomms machine's New() is called it will set itself to it's Z level.
-This allows you to manually change the value to other Z levels. I call this an off-site relay. I've added an off-site relay on the satelitte for the station and removed the one in the communications room.
-Players can create an offsite relay with two receivers, two broadcasters and, if necessary, a relay. Why two receivers and broadcasters? Otherwise any player can go to the Ruskie/Mining relays and turn them into off-site relays for the station! It would harm the TCommsat's usefulness. Instead, you will have to setup another broadcaster and receiver if you want to do that. Though it may be pointless, if someone sabotages the Commsat they would have destroyed/depowered the other machines there too.
-About the option to have an offsite relay, there is only a single Z level that you can lock onto at the moment and that's the station. Gameplay wise, the TCommsat is orbiting the station and if we do get the away missions then it would not make sense for the TCommsat's broadcaster/receiver signal to be able to pickup there. More sense if the Receivers and Broadcasters from there
are sent here... maybe. I don't know, seems more fun this way.
-Fixed an issue that doesn't let the Engineer Borg (or Borgs with multitools) be able to link machines with their multitool module.
-All-In-Ones do not have a Z level restriction. They can pick up ALL signals and send ALL signals (to Z levels 1-10)
-Fixed an issue with the player being unable to remove frequencies from the filter.
-Added support for additional interaction options for certain machines. To use it, create a new Options_Menu() and Options_Topic(href, href_list) for your machine.
-Added EMP_ACT to Telecommunication Machines. I've also added an event called "telecommunications_blackout()", it will loop through all telecomm machines, in telecomms_list, and EMP_ACT them. The EMP will last 2 minutes. Currently only admins can use it.
-Fixed issue 831
-Changed the map. The station no longer has the station relay, it is now on the Satellite. There's an empty room now, it should be used for something after the feature freeze.

All credits to the author for this handy little script.
I Committed the modified python script to tool directory. Although it needs to be in the root folder of your repo to work.
To notice the improved compile times, in dreammaker go to Build > Preferences > and untick "automatically set file_dir for subfolders"
If this commit inteferes with any large projects just revert it, do your thing, then rerun the script. Easy-peasy.
