Ports IPCs from Goob/EE

[Spielern]

About the PR

Ports IPCs from Goob-Station/Goob-Station#1100 and a portion of Goob-Station/Goob-Station#1235 (dc16cad)
This is my first PR and the scale is quite big, so I'm sure there are a few issues. Please go easy on me!

Why / Balance

IPCs are a very unique species, offering a lot of mechanical benefits and RP opportunities with extreme mechanical restrictions/implications.
While many people will first assume that this will take away from the Cyborg experience, my time playing IPCs on other servers has made it clear to me that the gameplay experience is significantly different between the two. IPCs allow players to RP as a silicon without the forced gameplay restrictions from Cyborg laws, letting players focus more on RP without distractions.
As someone who also loves to play Cyborg, having a playable species derived from Cyborgs that allows for more RP opportunities and freedom as a player character is extremely exciting.

For a simplified (and not fully complete) list of benefits/info/cons:

• IPCs have an internal battery and must constantly charge it or they will enter a "critical" state where they must be recharged externally.
• IPCs do not need to breathe.
• IPCs are not law-bound in any way, and are free to RP their character as they would like.
• IPCs are immune to barotrauma and cold damage.
• IPCs take 1.5x heat damage
• IPCs do not take heat damage from fire/high-temps and will instead overheat, killing them and requiring them to be rebooted when they cool down.
• IPCs double shock damage.
• IPCs cannot metabolize reagents.
• IPCs cannot be healed by topicals or chemicals and instead must heal through welding for Brute damage, cables for Burn damage, and glass for Eye damage.
• IPCs are immune to poison and radiation damage.
• EMPs will instantly kill any IPC caught in them, requiring them to be recharged externally.
• IPCs can be emagged to swiftly remove their powercell and near-instantly kill them.
• IPCs will violently explode and shock their surroundings if defibrillators are used on them in their "critical" state.
• IPCs cannot become psionic, unless they are the Mystagogue or Psionic Mantis

This PR contains only the basic IPC code and overheating system, and does not include any of the bug fixes/QoL changes/additions that are already present on other servers, so as to keep things simple and easy to change in case Delta wishes to implement balance or additions differently.

IPCs take double heat damage and will overheat from high temperatures, killing them quickly.

replace this with Goob-Station/Goob-Station#1232, which is in this commit

getting 1000 burn damage because someone on fire ran into you is ass, especially if an artifact full firestack effect happens

Should I be grabbing just the code for fire/overheating, or other code/fixes from the commit? Not sure what would be preferred/wanted.

[deltanedas]

the whole commit should be good

[Spielern]

Including the mech code? Sorry for asking again, just want to make sure I'm not misinterpreting.

[deltanedas]

yes

[Sifb26]

Direction review will be finished by next week at the latest.

[Lyndomen]

Hi! These look mostly great, we're requesting a few small tweaks.

[Lyndomen]

Oh and I forgor, but we also would like the emag brain popping out bit disabled.

[Spielern]

Brain doesn't pop out- just removes the lock permanently from the body, meaning anyone can remove their cell or encryption keys. Is that what you want removed?

Okay, that's perfectly fine. Thank you!
