About The Pull Request
Adds glockroaches, a cockroach with a fucking gun.
Currently only obtainable through gold core spawns/admin spawning.
They drop 0.9mm ammo casing, so you know when an assistant in maintenance was murdered by a cockroach.
there's honestly not much to say about this pr

Are you really going to argue with that cockroach? He has a fucking GUN!
About The Pull Request
Attacking someone with a gun at point blank with grab intent will now hold them at gunpoint. This means you will automatically shoot the target if they move or attack, though they're still free to rummage around in their (or your, if you continue standing next to them) inventory, speak (including using radios), and throw things. The shooter may roam around a 3 tile box radius without breaking the hold-up, allowing them to reposition themselves, though breaking visibility will break the hold-up. In addition, if you're several tiles away and they make a break for it, they may be able to dodge the projectile. Tactical choices!
For the first 3 seconds after the hold-up, any triggered reaction shot will deal normal damage.
Between 3-10 seconds after, any triggered reaction shot will deal double damage.
After 10 seconds, the reaction shot will deal 2.5x damage.
The ramp-up is to give weapons with weaker per-shot damage like disablers, laser guns, and the .38 the ability to be useful for arrests and stick ups, without affecting combat balance too much. If you got someone you're trying to kill to hold still for 2 seconds at point blank range, you may as well just keep shooting them rather than fiddle with holding them up. If you're gonna resist, it's best to do it quickly!
Lastly, if the shooter is attacked and takes damage from anything, they have a chance to flinch and fire in reaction. This is a 50% chance, unless they're hit in the arm holding the gun, in which case it's an 80% chance.

Adds in mechanical backing for taking people hostage or being able to arrest people with the threat of violence rather than actually carrying out that violence. Trying to take hostages or hold people up right now will just get you immediately shove spammed mid-"DROP $500 OR FAILRP" unless the other person feels like playing along. This makes cooperating or risking getting shot an actual choice, increasing mechanical depth while also adding more roleplay potential.
Also yes, the target cuffing themselves will not trigger the reaction shot, so holding someone up, backing up, and throwing cuffs at them is a valid move.
* Adds a new element, Self-Knockback.
* Squashes a potential edgecase runtime in projectile_selfknockback before it can even happen.
* Allows item_selfknockback to interact with dense turfs now.
* Made self-knockback utilize the Element Bespoke flag to allow custom force and speed values on attachment.
* fixes newline issue, adds a usage comment.
* fixes the newline issue in self-knockback for real this time, thanks TortoiseGit.

* Adds back sprites for the Particle Acceleration Rifle, and updates the back sprites for the combat and riot shotguns.

* Fixes the overlays for the m1911 pulse pistol, scatter shot laser rifle, and instakill rifles.
* The mini flashlight overlay of mini energy guns now works properly.
Current dual wielded disablers/lasers have very little spread, and 1-2 shots shoot straight enough to hit the tile you are clicking on at range 7 a majority of the time, which is pretty high.
With the new spread their effective range in now smaller, around 3-4 tiles.
Spread unchanged for dual wielding on the other acquirable guns.
cl
balance: Increased spread on dual wielded energy weapons.

* Adds sorting to most input() lists.
* Sorted some global lists, added more input sorting
* Should now use correct sort everywhere.
* compiles
* Last fixes.
Several of the greps were missing the `-P` switch which caused them to
fail to match things. The EOL grep also wasn't working right so I
replaced it with the one I added to TGMC.
* fixes toggling flashlight removing bayonet overlay
* Update gun.dm
Removed useless if statement, was not needed and referenced something that wasn't intended.

removes materials list from items, uses custom_materials instead. This might introduce some bugs so we should testmerge this for a while (and Ill test stuff locally as much as I can)
this also adds material crafting to sheets. Test case being chairs. In the future we can add stuff like tables, walls, doors etc.
also applies materials to everything, with fixes, which can close#46299
