Adds a config option MENTORS which sets the variable config.mods_are_mentors
Adds a rights level of R_MENTOR which gets msay, private message, aghost, notes, and a new proc for checking for new players (requires database support).
If the confic option for mentors is set then
the ckeys listed in moderators.txt file will instead be set as mentors, you can still make moderators by adding them in admins.txt
staffwho will show Mentors instead of Moderators as the heading above the listing of non-admins.
Also: Players now get a message gently reminding them to click the name of the staff member to reply instead of ahelping over and over.
Conflicts:
code/controllers/configuration.dm

code/modules/admin/admin_ranks.dm
config-example/config.txt
They include such procs as sanitize_integer(num, min, max, default) which will check num is a number, round num to make it an integer, then check if it is between min and max (inclusive). If it fails the bound-checks it will return default. There are others, have a look.
PERSISTENT PREFERENCES: Every ckey which connects to the game gets its own persistent /datum/preferences datum.
It is archived in var/list/preferences_datums = list("ckey" = datum)
At connect it is automatically associated with the client defines.dm (or a new one is created if it can't find an archived prefs datum). This means clients will ALWAYS have a var/datum/preferences/prefs which references this datum. So you can use it without checking if(client.prefs)
This has simplified only a few bits of code. It will however, allow us to make preferences like see_deadchat ghost_ears etc, persistent. So they will not reset when you DC.
SAVEFILES: Changed the player savefile code a lot. Hopefully I've not fucked it up too much. Every single variable loaded from saves is now sanity checked using the new sanity procs. This should help prevent savefiles becomming obsolete by sanitizing input to meet current requirements, without deleting all the ok variables and making you start from scratch >_> NOTE: I still need to sort out the savefile version stuff. I'll probably figure it out before the server updates anyway. It sees to be fine without it.
You can no longer choose your blood type. It is randomised (with each bloodtype having a realistic probability of occuring). This is to make blood analysis (detective/medical) less pointless. It is chosen as soon as you connect. It remains persistent throughout each round so you won't be able to change it by logging in/out over and over.
Replaces some copypasta code with is_afk() (still a fair bit to do)
There are new hyperlink shortcut things. _src_=vars will direct your hyperlink to viewvars. _src_=prefs to your preferences datum. (These are the only way to access those bits of code via links). This means that the overall amount of operations in almost every Topic has pretty much halved and is much prettier.
Replaced and removed adminplayervars from datum/admins/Topic. It was superfluous. They now all point directly to the viewvars code using _src_=vars
Removed the changelog popup at round start. Instead a button on your game-window will glow white if there are new updates. To peruse at your convenience. This will speed up connect times.
Removed the AFK_THRESHOLD define. It is integrated into is_afk() now.
TODO: remove the prefs stuff from mobs and clients and update code to use client.prefs to access that info.

Before, when making a link to an admin tool, you done this:
<a href='?src=\ref[C.holder];parameter=1;>link</a>
Now, we do not need to use a reference to direct it to places like usr or usr.client.holder (or client, but you never needed src for that anyway)
usr: <a href='?_src_=usr;parameter=1;>link</a>
holder: <a href='?_src_=holder;parameter=1;>link</a>
This basically allows us to move a LOT of code outside of loops as we no longer have to create a \ref for every recipient of the message. They can all be sent identical links. A simple example of this would be in pray.dm Although it's most noticeable in the adminhelp code which is vastly simplified.
Adminhelp name spotting code thingy...whatever... looks for ckey matches first, then surnames, then forenames. This is to stop it possibly weirding out if there is a station full of "Ed"s of "Sarah"s
Prayer code no longer loads a new icon into memory every time a prayer is sent. Use image() not icon()!
key_name() no longer needs a reference for it's admin_link argument.
message_admin() pretty much doesn't need those extra arguments for finding and replacing %holder_ref%. I've got to go through all the code to check before I remove it though.

SERVER HOSTS:
This commit replaces the existing admin-rank system. It is now more customizable.
Admin.txt essentially works the same as it always has. Each line should look like:
ckey - admin rank
There is now however, an admin_ranks.txt. This textfile allows you to define ranks like so:
admin rank +ADMIN +FUN +BUILD
the +KEYWORD are flags adding permissions to that rank. There are brief descriptions in the text-file explaining what they do.
You can now name the ranks anything you like, and give them the permissions you want them to have. This allows, for instance, ranks like:
Game Admin on disciplinary +ADMIN +BAN
This would give that game admin only the tools they need to admin. They would not have access to 'fun' verbs which control events and antags.
There's lots of things you can do. For instance, a coder rank whom can debug stuff but cannot do admin tasks:
Codermin +DEBUG +VAREDIT +SERVER
There's lots you can do. As it evolves it will hopefully become more flexible.
admin_ranks.txt defaults to use the old admin rank names.
Apologies in advance as there will be a lot of anomalies, such as ranks losing verbs they once had. Please let me know about any problems. I can fix them quite easily simply by moving verbs between the lists or splitting the lists up into new flags.
CODERS:
There is now a check_rights(flags) proc.
It check is usr is and admin and has -at least one of- the rights specified.
It checks > usr < not src, so keep that in mind!
If you need to check if something other than usr has specific tights, you can do if(holder.rights & R_ADMIN) etc.
KNOWN ISSUES:
+FUN probably needs to be split up into +MOBS and +EVENTS
In-game promotion/demotion is currently disabled. It will be readded after everything else works ok.
Erro's sql rights changes stuff is currently commented out. It will be re-added.
There are still many many verbs which need updating.
Apologies in advance for any inconvenience.

>tried to make the comments less confusing.
>Removed the procs for rebuilding the lists (they weren't meant to be used and half were broken anyway).
>added a directory. It maps ckey to client like so directory[ckey] = client. It could be used for PMs, banning, and various other admin tools rather than using \ref[]
>var/list/admins is now a list of clients whom are admins.
>var/list/admin_datums is what var/list/admins used to be. A map from ckey -> admin datum
Most of this is so I can add modular admin ranks in a non-horrendous way and fix some existing issues.
>var/list/client_list is now var/list/clients (laziness sorry)
>removed some needless loops and stuff.

- No longer see antagonists via /who command.
- Now have the 'toggle adminhelp sound' verb.
Removed a bunch of the 'deadmin_self' verb from various admins and gave it to admin observers. All admins should have it now.

- Removed the obnoxious message blue and red colors which was shown when hydroponics trays were overran by weeds. The message is now blue and has a dot at the end, instead of an exclamation point.
- Made '/obj/effect/debugging/marker' immovable. It was silly that it reacted to air movement.
- Standardized mapping.dm
- Removed the round-end condition of "Everyone is dead! Resetting in 30 seconds!"

-Added in the proper list stuff for changeling stasis
-Added a verb to the debug list (Game Admin+) to check the mob lists instead of requiring the item (Works the same way)

-Almost every instance of 'for(mob in world)' has been killed. Because GODDAMN was it being run a bunch. Instead, a series of global lists have been made, and they are all handled auto-magically through New()'s, Del()'s, Login()'s, death()'s, etc...
Lists are as follows:
-mob_list : Contains all atom/mobs by ref
-player_list : Like mob_list, but only contains mobs with clients attached
-admin_list : Like player_list, but holds all mobs with clients attached and admin status
-living_mob_list : Contains all mobs that ARE alive, regardless of client status
-dead_mob_list : Contains all mobs that are dead, which comes down to corpses and ghosts
-cable_list : A list containing every obj/structure/cable in existence
Note: There is an object (/obj/item/debuglist) that you can use to check the contents of each of the lists except for cables (Since getting a message saying "a cable," x9001 isn't very helpful)
These lists have been tested as much as I could on my own, and have been mostly implemented. There are still places where they could be used, but for now it's important that the core is working. If this all checks out I would really like to implement it into the MC as well, simply so it doesn't check call Life() on every mob by checking for all the ones in world every damn tick.
Just testing locally I was able to notice improvements with certain aspects, like admin verbs being MUCH more responsive (They checked for every mob in the world every time they were clicked), many sources of needless lag were cut out (Like Adminwho and Who checking every single mob when clicked), and due to the cable_list powernet rebuilding is MUCH more efficient, because instead of checking for every cable in the world every time a powernet was broken (read: A cable was deleted), it runs though the pre-made list, and even with a singulo tearing all the way across the station, the powernet load was VERY small compared to pretty much everything else.
If you want to know how any of this works, check global_lists.dm, there I have it rigorously commented, and it should provide an understanding of what's going on.

- send2irc will now only send adminhelps to irc if there are no admins online or if all the admins online are AFK. If will add a "- No admins online" to the end of the message if there are no admins online or a " - All admins AFK (X)" with X being the number of admins currently online.

- In addition when an admin uses 'adminwho' they will see if the admin in the list is AFK or not. You are deemed as AFK if you have been inactive for 300 seconds = 5 minutes.
- A little code standardization for port gens.

Commented out the authentication system. It was the remnants of the old goon authentication stuff (or maybe even older) and wasn't actually used in our code at all (at least not in any useful way, it was merely called and short-circuited to 1, so all those if(authenticated) were totally pointless. This has removed 3 unused variables from every client, a bunch of unused variables from the config and two empty text files!
Committed (as a config option) a feature requested by Apoc station. It causes a 'reply to' window to popup when an admin PMs a non-admin player. It's meant to grab their attention so they can't say "I didn't see your PM". It defaults to off. To turn it on just uncomment the #POPUP_ADMIN_PM line in config/config.txt
Fixed a derp in isday where it was fetching the month instead of the day.
Removed medal references from Gib()
Removed the medal_hub global variables because they aren't used in any way shape or form.

Flashlights
Cigs/lighters
Solars
RCDs can no longer build airlocks on doors
Airlocks now smash glass that is under them when they close
AI sat firewall that is not really quite a firewall removed
The solars will no longer update if they lack a controler
Cut down on machines that don't actually do anything like fake sleepers and shuttle engines
There is still a few shuttle engines around and I have no idea where, my map was already corrupted once by this so I am just leaving the define in for now.

Assigned categories to assorted verbs that lacked them. Commands tab is now more or less gone. Instead, things are in "IC" for things like say, whisper, me, that are inherent to you, "OOC" for things like OOC chat, and "Objects" for verbs originating from the world around you. I suppose for those non-admins in the audience, you now also get an "Admin" tab, because I stuffed adminhelp and adminwho in there.
This change was only to verbs defined as verbs in the code, procs that are assigned to things as verbs are far more numerous and harder to isolate, but also mostly admin-related.
git-svn-id: http://tgstation13.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1234 316c924e-a436-60f5-8080-3fe189b3f50e
Made sure every verb now has a name which starts with a capital letter and makes sense, because OCD.
Changed the categories of verbs a lot, now they are in much more sensible tabs.
Added a couple of admin verbs:
- Right click monkeyize
- Call Shuttle
- Recall Shuttle
Removed some goon verbs.
Gave "Coder" admin group a little more admin verbs:
- Monkeyize, Cultistize, Abominationize, Call Shuttle, Recall Shuttle, Make Sound
Added mobs a "say_message" variable. Now admin-created mobs can "scree", "squeak" etc. instead of just "chimper" or "hiss".
