+ * * If it's a non-carbon mob, we don't care, get out of here and do normal thrown-into-mob stuff
+ * * Else, if it's something dense (walls, machinery, structures, most things other than the floor), go to splat() and get ready for some high grade shit
+ *
+ * If it's a carbon we hit, we'll call rollTackle() which rolls a die and calculates modifiers for both the tackler and target, then gives us a number. Negatives favor the target, while positives favor the tackler.
+ * Check [rollTackle()][/datum/component/tackler/proc/rollTackle] for a more thorough explanation on the modifiers at play.
+ *
+ * Then, we figure out what effect we want, and we get to work! Note that with standard gripper gloves and no modifiers, the range of rolls is (-3, 3). The results are as follows, based on what we rolled:
+ * * -inf to -5: Seriously botched tackle, tackler suffers a concussion, brute damage, and a 3 second paralyze, target suffers nothing
+ * * -4 to -2: weak tackle, tackler gets 3 second knockdown, target gets shove slowdown but is otherwise fine
+ * * -1 to 0: decent tackle, tackler gets up a bit quicker than the target
+ * * 1: solid tackle, tackler has more of an advantage getting up quicker
+ * * 2 to 4: expert tackle, tackler has sizeable advantage and lands on their feet with a free passive grab
+ * * 5 to inf: MONSTER tackle, tackler gets up immediately and gets a free aggressive grab, target takes sizeable stamina damage from the hit and is paralyzed for one and a half seconds and knocked down for three seconds
+ *
+ * Finally, we return a bitflag to [COMSIG_MOVABLE_IMPACT] that forces the hitpush to false so that we don't knock them away.

+/**
+  * splat()
+  *
+  * This is where we handle diving into dense atoms, generally with effects ranging from bad to REALLY bad. This works as a percentile roll that is modified in two steps as detailed below. The higher
+  *	the roll, the more severe the result.
+  *
+  * Mod 1: Speed
+  *	* Base tackle speed is 1, which is what normal gripper gloves use. For other sources with higher speed tackles, like dolphin and ESPECIALLY rocket gloves, we obey Newton's laws and hit things harder.
+  *	* For every unit of speed above 1, move the lower bound of the roll up by 15. Unlike Mod 2, this only serves to raise the lower bound, so it can't be directly counteracted by anything you can control.
+  *
+  * Mod 2: Misc
+  *	-Flat modifiers, these take whatever you rolled and add/subtract to it, with the end result capped between the minimum from Mod 1 and 100. Note that since we can't roll higher than 100 to start with,
+  *		wearing a helmet should be enough to remove any chance of permanently paralyzing yourself and dramatically lessen knocking yourself unconscious, even with rocket gloves. Will expand on maybe
+  *	* Wearing a helmet: -6
+  *	* Wearing armor: -6
+  *	* Clumsy: +6
+  *
+  * Effects: Below are the outcomes based off your roll, in order of increasing severity
+  *	* 1-63: Knocked down for a few seconds and a bit of brute and stamina damage
+  *	* 64-83: Knocked silly, gain some confusion as well as the above
+  *	* 84-93: Cranial trauma, get a concussion and more confusion, plus more damage
+  *	* 94-98: Knocked unconscious, significant chance to get a random mild brain trauma, as well as a fair amount of damage
+  *	* 99-100: Break your spinal cord, get paralyzed, take a bunch of damage too. Very unlucky!
