tweak: The crusher kit now includes an advanced mining scanner.
tweak: The resonator kit now includes webbing and a small extinguisher.
tweak: The minebot kit now includes a minebot passthrough kinetic accelerator module, which will cause kinetic accelerator shots to pass through minebots. The welding goggles have been replaced with a welding helmet, allowing you to wear mesons and still be able to repair the minebot without eye damage.
feature: You can now install kinetic accelerator modkits on minebots. Some exceptions may apply. Crowbar to remove modkits.
balance: Minebots now shoot 33% faster by default(3 seconds to 2). The minebot cooldown upgrade still produces a fire rate of 1 second.
balance: Minebots are now slightly less likely to sit in melee like idiots, and are now healed for 15 instead of 10 when welded.
balance: Sentient minebots are penalized; they cannot have armor and melee upgrades installed, and making them sentient will override those upgrades if they were installed. In addition, they move very slightly slower and have their kinetic accelerator's cooldown increased by 1 second.

the basic scanner sucks ass and nobody wants to use it, it's actually hilarious
also in those stats: minebot picked a mere 6 more times than the conscription kit, because it's an idiot drone, easy to accidentally hit, and did I mention how much it likes going into melee?
tbh it's quite possible the extra buffs aren't needed, just the passthrough module, but it's better to go a little too far rather than not far enough.

experiment: Being hit by a bolt of change now opens up previously-barred races. Hopefully you don't roll plasmaman!

If the subtype for the species was added hehe
I was going to brag about how there wasn't any balance change but this does allow for more of the "fun" races within humans to come up.
Webbit so probably some dumb typo somewhere
* Fixes mushroom bowls
Made the mushroom bowl a subtype of the normal bowl, and deleted a
duplicate definition.
Also, adds custom soup and salad support for the mushroom bowls.
Fixes#32471
* Remove a dangling return

add: Circuits integrity, charge, and overall circuit composition is displayed on diagnostic huds. If the assembly has dangerous circuits then the status icon will display exclamation points, if the assembly can communicate with something far away a wifi icon will appear next to the status icon, and if the circuit can not operate the status icon will display an 'X'.
add: AR interface circuit which can modify the status icon if it is not displaying the exclamation points or the 'X'.
tweak: Locomotive circuits can no longer be added to assemblies that can't use them.
spellcheck: Fixed a typo in the grenade primer description.
code: Added flags to circuits that help group subsets of circuits and regulate them.
/cl
The diagnostic hud addition is meant to allow more counter play to circuits by seeing the assemblies's healths and how dangerous they are. The flags are a useful addition to the code because players shouldn't be able to put circuits in assemblies if the assembly can't use that circuit (this can also be used later for other assemblies which could use unique circuits).
The following circuits are flagged as dangerous:
weapon firing mechanism
grenade primer
thrower
The following circuits are flagged as long range:
NTNet networking circuit
integrated signaler
video camera circuit
possible AR interface displays:
default
alert
move
