Cloning

[Auri3l]

Not necessary due to Tgstation removing the cloning system.

At least come up with a good reason, not just "they removed that so we should follow in their steps!!!"

Not necessary due to Tgstation removing the cloning system.

Not at all, leaving aside the fact that the decision tgstation made was controversial, consider that it already had borgs, PAI, mid-round antags, golems, and a plethora of other ways for players to re-spawn after death.

Robotics itself is currently in the controversial and unimportant category of the roadmap, so any other form of mid-round revival for SS14 is far off.

Personally though, I just like having a reason to bomb medbay.

Dibs now that body rework is in.

Future Work(Tasks to create once this PR is complete):

• The body should have cellular damage once exiting the pod(dependent on #1614)
• A separate cloning terminal(dependent on #1656)
• Some sort of animation to properly show cloning progress
  • A radiating oval that pulses faster as cloning is about to complete is one way of doing it.
• Visual indicators of cloning pod state(on the sprite. This information will be available in the UI first):
  • Idle: not doing anything, no body within
  • Cloning: Body inside
  • Soul: is the soul present?
  • Finished Cloning: If the body is finished cloning. If the soul is present then it will auto-eject, otherwise an operator must manually eject the soulless body.
• Reacting to power changes. For now the pod will simply pause if power goes out, but we could pop up a deformed body with future work.
