* Plasma cutters now require charge (100, 10%) to be used as a welder.
* Plasma cutters now flash you, same as experimental welders.
Plasma cutters now use charge proportional to time spent welding (25 to start and 25 every 10th welding tick - 50 per scrubber/vent/girder, 175 per regular wall, etc).
* Cell use sanity. If you somehow popped the cell out of plasma cutter you have bigger problems.
* Annnd PCs are back to not using charge for most tasks (exceptions: plasma tiles, airlock wire shielding...) because everything calls amount=0 and zero amount means use() isn't called.
They still flash you, though.
* Comments + a bit more sanity.
* Actual sanity. Also did a rebase, let's see how much stuff that wrecked.
* Oops apparently you indeed cannot stack inline conditionals or it requires some special syntax.
* Plasma cutters now use a minimum of charge_weld charge again. Also known as "who says I can't override your stupid zero-amount calls?".
* And here's the rebase problems. Reverted accidental sanity revert.

balance: plasma cutter blasts no longer have a pressure penalty, but do 1/4 their old damage

Call this an "i ded pls nerf" situation but god damn the only things i've felt more bullshitted by than plasma cutters are the fuckin RNG getting a grenade exploded out of my hand and playing vs unsynced borgs as a rogue AI. Nothing else feels quite as unfair as getting demolished by 15 people all holding 2 advanced plasma cutters, meanwhile the god damn stations actual armory of lethal gear is collecting dust because they're entirely outclassed by cutters against quite a few common threats.
That said, this PR isn't the best change, but neither was tlal's or the other guys. In my opinion, the simplest change that would keep their original purpose(godlike mining tools) while toning down their combat ability would be to just keep their damage really low in general and keep them exclusively made for their mining abilities.
reason kinetic accelerator is fine and not in jeopardy of nerf PR: mostly limited, theres reasonable ways to print more but you cant get them by the hundreds with. 40 brute damage/1.6s with no pressure penalty, 70 brute damage/1.6s generally. Can't be dual wielded effectively.
reason adv cutters are retarded: first mining load can generally print 50-60 adv cutters, more if RND bothered to upgrade anything(most miners end up upgrading their own shit if science doesnt). 28 brute/1s generally, 56/s when dual wielded.
in 3 seconds, an adv cutter can do 168 damage, KA can do 140 at best. Combine this with the fact that you can easily supply every crewmember+crewmembers dog with 2 adv cutters each, shit like blob/xeno(near space most of the time) and other large threat antags that end up getting obliterated by this garbage that they cant even prevent because god knows at least 3 people are dual wielding them already and probably the cargo staff too.

Adds a magical locker staff.
It goes through people, capturing anyone being hit by it and putting them in a welded locker
The locker decays in about 5 minutes, to prevent the hallways flooding too much.
Escape time is only a minute.
Explosions are less effective on people inside
Why: It's a bulky wand, and great if you want people to just fuck off. You can either leave them or do something horrible to them.
The sprites are codersprites, except for the locker, please forgive me

In preparation of pixel movement, I want to refactor our slowdown system to something more modular, and something that doesn't require /quite/ as many proccalls/calculations a tick. The way this works is intended to only have things recalculate when it's necessary, rather than calling it every move.
However, I've left movement_delay() in, as without completely redoing a lot of code it's not /quite/ ready at this point to tear it out completely, but I'm hoping everything can be transitioned over to this system later.
tweak: Fusion has been reworked to be a whole lot deadlier!
tweak: You can now use analyzers on gas mixtures holders (canisters, pipes, turfs, etc) that have undergone fusion to see the power of the fusion reaction that occurred.
balance: Several gases' fusion power and fusion's gas creation has been reworked to make its tier system more linear and less cheese-able.
Fusion, even after my rework, is still kinda lackluster in the 'risk <-> reward' department. It's pretty easy to bypass the consequences of fusion as it stands right now, so I wanted to change that. I think you can suspend your disbelief enough for the new effects. Also, there are a couple balance changes to fusion that I'll outline more below that I noticed happening and theorized could happen, so I tackled those here as well.
More specific reasoning for every change:
Addition of nuclear particles/tesla zap
As said before, I thought fusion should be more dangerous. As to why these specifically, I chose the addition of nuclear particles because I felt like it was at least decently thematically appropriate, and had a lot of potential to look visually interesting. The sprite is pretty much just a downscaled gumball with some added fluff. They all have random colors that are chosen when created, and fire out from the fusion holder's turf in random angles and with a 1 decisecond delay. I chose tesla zaps because.. well, they're pretty cool, felt reasonable enough (an extremely powerful release of energy goes well with fusion) and they mix up the damage types caused by fusion (brute from explosion, burn from zap, tox from radiation/particles). I added TESLA_FUSION_FLAGS because the tesla zaps defaultly just ended up exploding whatever they came out of (canisters usually) and ruined the whole thing.
BZ fusion power nerf, nitryl fusion power buff
These go hand in hand. When I first made BZ useful for fusion, I completely forgot (or maybe it just wasn't merged yet, don't remember) that xenobio started with a BZ canister. So, it was super easy to cheese high/super tier fusion by just stealing the canister from xenobio. Thus, I switched BZ's role in fusions progression to nitryl instead, which is harder to make and currently doesn't see much usefulness outside of making it for stimulum.
Fusion analyzing, addition of analyzer_results to datum/gas_mixture
I quickly realized after my fusion rework that there wasn't any ingame way to really quantify how good a fusion reaction was, which is a mistake on my part. Now, you can analyze the power of a fusion reaction and its tier after it happens. I added analyzer_results, since reaction_results worked in a matter that didn't fit what I wanted (reset completely every react() cycle) and I didn't want to change it. analyzer_results is only ever initialized when it's actually going to be used, which currently is only for fusion.
Overall fusion code cleanup
Pretty self-explanatory. I moved all the effects (radiation, tesla zap, etc) to one area instead of having it happen separately for every tier. Now the tiers just set variables used for those effects. Apologies if the diff is kinda hard to read.
Changes to gases created
Low tier is now BZ/CO2, mid tier is nitryl/N2O, high tier is stimulum/pluoxium, and super tier is tritium.
Gas creation numbers are lower across the board, mostly for bz/nitryl/stim.
BZ/nitryl/stim were added in low quantities to the tiers to help with the progression of the various tiers. It didn't really make sense that before, super tier fusion gave stimulum/pluox when the only feasible way to get super tier fusion was using stimulum, and the low tier rewards were straight up useless. Tritium for super tier was chosen because I think it's the gas with the most potential of causing a massive disaster in this scenario.
Plasma no longer counts towards gases fused
Before this change, I realized that you could just stack as much plasma as humanly possible and a minimum amount of trit to instantly get several thousand moles of BZ and potentially other gases for free. No thank you.
I'm still not 100% satisfied with fusion, so expect more PRs like this in the future.

experimental: Hitscanning tracers now have lighting effects
experimental: Projectile pathing has been changed - instead of moving to a turf 32 pixels forward using byond's built in step_towards() proc, it now increments 2 pixel 16 times (subject to change). While this will increase the processing overhead, this will more or less eliminate cases of "projectiles clipping past corners in some angles but not others".
It is my belief that science weaponry should exist but not be "just better energy guns/whatever". Right now, portal guns are actually pretty powerful, as their random teleport can space people (especially if they have bohs), and actually does burn damage, albeit very little. I want to make scilathe weapons into useful utility things that can be weaponized if you use it right and in somewhat niche scenarios.
This PR will make wormhole projectors into more utility than combat.
* changes cost of AP ammo from 6 to 8
* incendiary damage from 15 to 20

felt that 2 extra TC per magazine was not a significant enough difference
