It will construct a camera after doing the following steps:
Wrench it to attach it to a wall
Weld it to the wall with a welding tool (Welding Helmet Required)
Attach wires to the camera
Possible extra steps in order to create special cameras (X-Ray, EMP Proof, Motion) (You can have more than 1 special attachment, meaning it can be possible to have an EMP Proof, Motion, X-Ray camera)
X-Ray will need carrots (something for botanists) (this will possibly changed, well it will definitely carrots are weird)
EMP Proof will need solid plasma.
Motion will need a prox sensor.
Screwdriver the panel closed to complete the camera.
To deconstruct the camera, it would be not so difficult to disable but it will take a while to completely remove it:
Screwdriver the panel open
Cut all the wires, cutting the alarm wire is optional.
Weld it.
It is now a camera assembly again.
Gave the cameras wires to cut/mend/pulse. Random wires for every camera to make hacking it harder.
Focus wire. Will make the camera have a shorter or normal vision range.
Power wire. Will disable the camera. Pulsing will make it kick anyone who is viewing it through a security computer. Will give a tiny shock if not protected.
Light wire. Will disable the "Toggle Camera Light" that the AI has. Pulsing it will disable/enable it.
Alarm wire. Will warn the AI that a camera's alarm has been set off, when this wire has been cut/pulsed. Does nothing else. Should only triggered once, meaning.. setting off the camera won't set it off ever again..
Special wire. Will toggle the special attachment of the camera. Pulse toggles, cutting disables, mending enables.
Nothing wire. Does nothing, just here to add more wires and make guessing which wire does which harder. x 3
Placed extra cameras, I can't recall all the places but here are some.
Around solar array entrances
Around EVA
Around the security back maintenance door
Place an X-Ray camera in the Living Quarters.
Bartender back room
Virology living quarters
Chapel crematory
A camera on the outside of Telecomm's external airlock
X-Ray camera outside every escape pod station.
Inbetween toxins test site and the station(?) There's cameras there already
Inbetween viro and medbay i think ^ I mean inside maintalright
private study? (library back room)
engineering secure storage
X-ray camera in toilets (both of them)
Both maintenance access that you find between important areas (captain room, teleporter room)(HoP office, staff meeting
Custodial Closet
Surgery Observation
Atmospherics Maintenance
Infront of Atmos

TODO:
Get camera alarms to give the AI a link to press, to jump there.
Standardize wires or something. There's a lot of copy+paste..
OTHER:
With the new camera stuff I got rid of the default x-ray cameras. Though there still are x-ray cameras placed around, watching you sleep.
Added Lugar223's improved vending interface. http://nanotrasen.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=9586
Some runtime fixes.
Added a second buffer for Cyborg cameras. Hopefully it'll make freelook less laggy.
Increased the first buffer to 2 seconds.
Some tweaking to stuff.

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.

- 'usr' was used in place of 'src' which caused problems since the AI's emp_act() can call ai_call_shuttle().
Added comments to mob/attackby and changed a magic number into the #define we have set for it.
Simple animals must now be manually added to a proc before admins can animalize players into them. Hopefully this will encourage coders who make new simple animals to test them being player-controlled before they allow them to become admin-spawnable.

Fixed a problem where TG was using this sequential master_controller but I had removed a spawn where master_controller.process() was called because I was working with the default master_controller. This problem was causing the master_controller to prevent the lighting_controller.process() ever running properly because it was hogging the current thread (thread isn't the right word there, not sure what you call it....stack?)
Added debugging to both the lighting_controller and master_controller. http://filesmelt.com/dl/debugging.png
Both lighting_controller and master_controller may be deleted to terminate their processes (this is done via the restart controller verb. This allows for clean restarts without 'doubling up' (where, for instance, the master_controller would be running more than one instance).
lighting_controller has a prototype recovery proc which is called by the "restart controller - lighting" verb. It's basically an overly paranoid version of process() which will only transfer light_sources to the replacement controller if they don't runtime. It's not needed at the moment as the process() has yet to runtime.
master_controller has the beginnings of self pruning lists. This method using list.Cut(index,index+1) is faster than doing list.Remove(thing) all over the place (the latter iterates through the list to find the thing).
Added more detailed time-measurements for the master_controller. It now displays the processing costs (in real-world seconds) of each part of the master_controller's cycle.
The stat panel only updates for mobs actually -looking- at the stat panel.
Explosion debugging is now hidden behind a if(Debug2). To have it print that data to world.log just click the DebugGame verb
debug controller and restart controller verbs are now both GameAdmin rank. Not sure how they got split up.
Fixed another cause of dark splotchy space turfs. (turf/wall/ex_act was replacing the turf with space and then deleting that new space turf)

Simple_animal fixes:
- Mice now properly get added to the mob list.
- Simple animals no longer use emotes if they have a client attached.
- Bears no longer run their AI stuff if they have a client attached.
This means that admins can now use the 'Animalize' button to turn players into mice and bears!
Map fixes:
- That window near arrival shuttle is back where it is supposed to be.
- Nuke op shuttle has red floors again.
- Holodeck's beach program once again has a beach.
- The beach once again is a beach.
- Re-added plating in the centcomm control room (where A.L.I.C.E. is.)

This brings down a bunch of defines from /code/defines/obj.dm unto their appropriate files.
I've moved morgue.dm from game/machinery into game/objects/structures since that file contains no machines.
I've reorganized the objects/items/stacks folder and made a 'sheets' and 'tiles' folder to keep things separate
I've separated stool_chair_bed.dm into its own folder which now contains the files: stools.dm, chairs.dm, bed.dm and alien_nests.dm to make it a little easier to go through.

I've tested each mobtype with this and didn't see any issues but as always, it's possible that I've missed something. If it's an issue let me know. If it's a critical issue, go ahead and revert.

Basically these numbers get added directly to movement values.
run_delay and walk_delay affect all mob's walk/run speeds before their mob-specific modifiers take effect. Make this number higher to slow things down, make it lower to speed things up.
human_delay, robot_delay, monkey_delay, alien_delay, metroid_delay and animal_delay will affect those mobs specifically. So if you'd like humans to slow down but you don't want robots to suffer, just raise the value of human_delay! Same as before, raise the number to slow things down, lower it to speed it up.
Note: most mobs already run as fast as byond will let them.
Although these are config options. It is possible to adjust these values in-game. The values will reset at the end of the round however.
To adjust the values in-game you must be a high enough level admin to have access to the 'Debug' tab. Open the Debug tab and select 'Debug Controller". In the popup list, select "Configuration". The variables will have the same name as those in the config options.
Note: The values will act a little differently between servers with ticklag compensation turned on and those which have it turned off.

-AI has to double click to move by turf.
-If more than a certain number of alarms are triggered, the AI and Cyborg will instead receive a message saying how many alarms have been triggered and of which type, they will then get a link to the "view alarms" proc. This also counts for cleared alarms.
-Fixed an issue with creating turfs and it not showing up on the camera.
-Modified the "Communication Blackout" event. It will now notify the AI that comms are down, if it is var/silent. Increased the EMP duration for telecomm machines.

Unfortunately I had to disallow certain animal types until they can be fixed.
- Mice: I know, it sucks. Mice were the reason I started making this button to begin with, and it's something that both players and admins are requesting. The problem is that when a mob is turned into a mouse, for some reason it becomes impossible to pull up their player panel. If that gets fixed, I'll allow this button to turn players into mice.
- Space Bears: The bear's AI does not seem to turn off when it is player controlled. Basically the bear will automatically maul nearby players to death and spam emotes regardless of the player's actions or inaction.
- Parrots: They are unfinished. They have no sprite, no movement and are completely untested. They were one of Poly's creations that never ended up getting finished. I like the idea of parrots though, someone should work on them!
- Space Worms: Another unfinished project. Currently they drop new space worms when the player moves and you can end up eating your own tail. Eating your tail drops a new space worm and regenerates your tail. I only spent about 15 seconds as a space worm, so there are probably more issues.

Cleaned up the files themselves.
Everything in code/game/objects should now be in proper files or places with the exception of the files in the /weapons/ sub-folder.
There's two instances of me not following the exact file structure.
- /obj/item/brain has been moved to a file in mob/living/carbon/brain
- /obj/item/clothing/mask/facehugger has been moved into mob/living/carbon/alien/special
Both of these may not make sense according to the object structure, but they do make sense logically. If it's a problem just move them.
Next up: Finish the files in the weapon folder, then start moving defines down.
My god I hope I havent broken everything.

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.

-I've added some cameras to rooms that should have cameras but were previously depending on other camera's using their X-Ray vision in order to see into a room.
-AIs have a multitool in their contents that they can use to interact with the telecommunication machines.
-Added "Follow" for observers. Works the same as AI tracking without checking if they can track.
-Added a range to how far Cyborgs can interact with machines. This is to stop Cyborgs from interacting with machines through cameras, which could be used to easily disable the AI.

- The problem was actually down to an ancient bug, which wrongly calculates the temperature of tiles with very little gas on them - tiles exposed to space. Space suits protect down to a temperature of 2.0K, space is 2.7K, which I assumed to be the lowest temperature anywhere. Unfortunately I forgot about this bug at the time, which can cause the gas temperature on tiles with little air to even hit negative kelvins (Nobel prize, plox). This happens relatively often, each floor tile that meets the criteria experiences this about once every 50 ticks and if you're standing on it when it happens, your cold protection will be 0%, because the temperature on the tile will be lower than 2.0K. Everything will be fine in the next tick cold-protection-wise, but your body temperature is already lowered to under the damage threshold by then.
