About The Pull Request
It adds a shrink ray that has 5 shots, can be recharged, has unique (coder)sprites, and has a cool sound
Shoot a thing with the shrink ray to make it small. Anything can be shrunk except floors
Shrunken things grow back after a couple seconds, might adjust this
Small things will not block vision and can be walked over (this includes walls)
Small people won't fit into their clothes and will drop all their stuff (or rather, their stuff will drop off of them). They also can't move very fast, and take 2x damage while shrunk.

Why It's Good For The Game
It's really goddamn cool
Changelog
cl PKPenguin321, Fury McFlurry
add: A shrink ray for abductors that they can buy at their console for 2 experiment points. Anything can be shrunken, and shrunken things can be walked over/seen past (for example, you can shrink a wall and then walk around it). If a human is shrunk, they will drop all of their belongings, move slower, and take 2x damage.
imageadd: Shrink ray sprites by Fury McFlurry. Thank you!
/cl
I intend to add it as a thing abductors can purchase but am putting it up now for code review and if anybody has any other ideas on good thematically fitting places to put it.
Nukes the hybrid taser from orbit. Everywhere that spawned it now provides a disabler instead. Standard sec issue? Disabler. Armory? Disabler rack.
Want something with more punch? Beg the warden for a shotgun or an energy gun.
The hybrid taser itself has not been removed from the codebase.
Also removes the stun from the advanced energy gun so it doesn't just become the late game secret powerhouse.
Hoslaser keeps it, but only gets three shots instead of five.
The ebow has been COMPLETELY RUINED as well. See the changelog for details I'm too lazy to copypaste.
Why It's Good For The Game
Fuck stun based combat.
Sec still have their stunbatons, collapsible batons still exist, pepperspray still exists, flashbangs still exist. but now any fight involving sec or anyone who has robusted a sec officer will be less ranged instastun bullshittery.
Changelog
cl
balance: New NT regulations have replaced the standard issue hybrid taser with a pure disabler.
balance: Also fuck the stun mode on the advanced energy gun who thought that was a good idea.
balance: The hos's laser can only fire three taser shots instead of five.
balance: Energy crossbows have been reworked. They no longer paralyze, but instead heavily blur vision, apply a huge burst of stamina damage, and knock you on your ass for one second. Two shots is enough to down someone from stamina crit on both the mini and large versions. The blur lasts for 10 seconds.
balance: The price of the mini ebow has been reduced to 10TC to compensate for this weaker effect.
tweak: The ED-209 is now built with a DRAGnet and fires netshot instead of taser bolts.
balance: Stunshells can no longer be produced in any lathe.
balance: The "pacifier" mech taser can no longer be built.

* Antur didnt catch this one heck
* Because confusing vars are apparently more maintainable
* Gun overlays 2: Electric boogaloo
* another one
* Chameleon guns are removed
* tentacles everywhere
fix: makes dragnet non harmful
tweak: pacifists can now use any disabler or stun setting on any energy gun
code: removed all of the pacifism check code from code/modules/mob/living/living.dm
code: gun objects no longer have a harmful variable, instead, ammo_casing objects now have a harmful variable, which is by default set to TRUE
code: if a pacifist fires a gun, it checks whether or not the round chambered is lethal, instead of whether or not the gun itself is lethal.
