- added the radial menu, it has nothing in it. - trying to get it to populate. the event under the event is broken, i don't know why, but apparently it's not typed right - Added a placeholder transform - oh also fixed up some devour stuff and moved some things around.
- Move DnaComponent into Shared because we need it for the DNA cloning - Make Transform MOSTLY work on the LAST identity devoured. - Fix some issues on devour that involved prediction, canceling and Damage exeucting (Thanks Plykiya for pointing out AttemptFrequency!)
Add check to add a wagging component on the Changeling if the victim's species Prototype had one. attempt to add the Damage mitigation check
- Nullspaced a clone of a victim - fix audio using server virtualized Pvs (i hate this) - fix the mispredicted doafters - Clean up a wholelotta code - utilize clone systems to clone appearances - Move CloneAppearance from server to shared So we can actually access it
- make rotting prevent the action - Add ripping of clothing (guh why is it also server) - add some System stuff for pushing husked corpse inspection - clean up more badcode
- Utilize Relayed events for Devour checking - Get a UI that partially works, Says the name of identities, doesn't show their looks - Make use of the New Dynamic BUI assignment - commit the sin of no client prediction cause nullspace entities aren't networked
Issue with the looks
- Get the UI to see the net entity in pause space by using a ViewSubscriber to get the Pvs from the initially stored identity entity - Remove all the other parts used to try to get this to work before hand
- Change FancyWindow to Radial - Fix Issue where coeffeient checking was the wrong way round
- cleaned up event variables that are not needed - Removed the use of a Pause space and go back to Nullspace usage - use a PvsOverride rather than ViewSharing - Remove old commented out code and Lots of unused code
- some minor cleanup - don't start the entities that get cloned
- add replace functionality to TypingIndicatorSystem and BodyEmotesSystem - add placeholder sounds and functions to TransformBodyEmotes - add extra Pvs handling for later use - attributions for the funny straw sound - Sound collections for all of the sounds - various cleanups
- Bubbles now transfer on spawned humans rather than used humans - Clean up YET MORE CODE - make it so you can't eat yourself

About the PR
Adds Changelings Devour and Transform Componentry and Systems to Achieve what is set out in The Changeling Doc
With the new components and Systems a Player is able to Consume Other humanoids for their Identities to later Assume their visage, speaking and all things that make up them.
Why / Balance
Followed https://docs.spacestation14.com/en/space-station-14/round-flow/proposals/changeling.html directly.
Assumptions made not defined within the doc:
Devour can be used on a living being
Devour does 25 damage per second after windup (10/10/5 slash/pierce/blunt)
Technical details
Added
ChangelingTransformComponentand System for controlling transformation.Added
ChangelingDevourComponentand System for managing the action of consuming people.Added
ChangelingIdentityComponentand System for storing references to consumed identities, which are stored as a clone (using cloning code) of the original humanoid on a paused map when they are devoured. A PVS override is added for the changeling players so that an entity preview can be seen in the transformation radial.During transform all relevant components whitelisted in the changeling's
CloningSettingsPrototypeare transferred from these backup entities onto the acting entity. Some components cannot be copied usingCopyComp, for example those storing references to an action entity. Instead the are handled manually in aCloningEventsubscription and whitelisted in theEventComponentslist`.Media

Requirements
Breaking changes
BodyEmotesComponentno longer caches the usedEmoteSoundsPrototype.ParadoxCloneRuleComponentnow uses the new "ParadoxCloningSettings"CloningSettingsPrototypeas a default.The
CloningSettingsPrototypesinclone.ymlhave been split up and are now using inheritance.Forks will have to adjust these component cloning whitelists so they contain their custom traits or species components.
See the existing code and code comments for examples on how to do this.
