Add Botany Garden Gnomes Ghost Role

[PaigeMaeForrest]

About the PR

This PR adds the Gnome ghost role to botany!

Gnome features

They are a ghost role For early to late round use, they have the following abilities and traits:

• A hand slot to pick up items
• they can drag items for storage (such as a survival box or backpack)
• they can be picked up and worn as hats and die when thrown
• they are healed and revived with glue bottles
• Gnomes are grown from a Gnome hat that can be planted into a gnome plant that grows the gnome
• they are very fragile (10 health) but dont need air and are resistant to tempature damage
• being hollow they are weak to pressure changes that cause them to break quickly, space is an instant death.
• can be gibbed into a gnome hat and glass
• has a gnome accent that replaces no at the start of words to GNO and certain past tence words to GNOMED eg: killed > GNOMED (The captain is GNOMED)
• weak to blunt, slightly resistant to slash and peircing, and very resistant to burns
• rooms can be "Gnome proofed" with mouse traps
• Gnomes act like a normal garden gnome untill possesed by a ghost player
• Healing a gnome uses 5u of glue

Why / Balance

This adds to content to botany and adds to the variety of ghost roles players can have. One day someone asked me to add gnomes, I figured it would be fun to do so and fun to have more ghost role variety. my ramblings about gnomes and Gnomevelopment are at the Gnomvelopment development thread in the ss14 discord. the many abilities gnomes have, (being small, going under doors, not needing air, having hands.) are negated by being very easy to kill, and if they are a repeat offender, gib. additionaly they are somewhat rare maintnece loot keeping their numbers small and rare.

Technical details

Adds gnomes, the gnome hat, and the plant that spawns them. this also adds a tag for plants that should not be clipped (this is only applied to the gnome plant), along with that it adds a gnome accent.

known problems:

• items look kinda weird when they are holding them -(FIXED GLUE IS NOW USED WHEN HEALING WOOOO)

Media

• [X] I have added screenshots/videos to this PR showcasing its changes ingame.

Breaking changes

Hopefully no breaking changes. Changelog

:cl: BITTERLYNX

• add: Gnome hats have been found in select maint lockers. Gnome hats can be grown into full Gnomes to help botany in gardening and/or theft

Is there a doc for this

[PaigeMaeForrest]

Time to lookie at the checks :3

[PaigeMaeForrest]

yes there is a doc, but it has not yet been merged

[beck-thompson]

Haha I love this 😆

[PaigeMaeForrest]

Im taking this pr out of draft and into open so i can have the checks run, the Design doc is still not merged and should probably be merged before this is considered for merging

Somebody else suggested it but it would be really funny if gnomes seeds were mutated carrot seeds.

I tried coding that but with how botany code is written I'd have to do a lot of work just for this case or mutating from carrots would create 3 gnomes every time (mutating to a different plant keeps the yield of the old plant unfortunately) if botany is refactored or I get smarter I'd love to add that (Also in the morning I gotta make sure I removed the carrot mutation bc if not it's gonna be buggy as hell)

[PaigeMaeForrest]

I checked now, I did NOT change that and also I forgot to clean up the repairable file I gotta do that tomorrow

Idk maybe that's fine, it's fine for the killer tomatoes pr at least (similar principle of seeds creating mobs)

yeah, i figured i would make the spawn rate ultra low to start and i can always try and add it in the future if its not too much of a problem

The gnome accent should replace words beginning with "no" rather than "g" since "gnomes" is said with an "n" sound.

So for example, instead of "Let's gno", "I love "gnrowing plants", which is basically unreadable and confusing, it should replace stuff like so:

• "I'm gnot interested"
• "I love egg gnogg"
• "Let's gnot be hasty"
• "I he broke my gnose!"
• "He's not gnormal in the head"
• "I didn't do gnothing!"
• "That's gnonsense!"

It's more readable, thematic, and funny imo.

Aye ill role out that change once I got a moment Thanks for the suggestion because gno required a weird pronunciation to sound decent

[FungiFellow]
