I'm quite satisfied in the current state of gang and I feel that I no longer have any more significant changes to make. Gang 5.1 includes primarily minor tweaks.
- Goal reduced back down to 50%
- Boss icon made more obvious. They're now red Gs
- Better descriptions for distributing spraycans and victory conditions
- Lieutenants receive objectives now
- Increased spraycan use to 20
- Poseur tags no longer pick gang B's tag
Fixes dropped resuply canisters having most charges go in a single canister (and going above the initial charge amount).
Fixes exploit with cult constructs creation.
- You must be in the territory physically to tag it now. So no more tagging everything from maint.
- Influence income changed to provide weaker gangs a bigger boost, while slowing down stronger gangs to promote opportunity for comebacks
- Gangs only earn influence on territories they have held on to since the previous Status Report (the income calculation every 5 minutes). This places more significance on defending your existing territory.
- Removed solars and shuttles, and the toxins test chamber from valid territory list
- Victory conditions are only checked during Status Reports.
- Bosses no longer receive territory updates real-time. They now get them all as a list of new and lost territories in the Status Update.
- You cannot tag tiles with APCs. No cheating, you maint crawlers.
- Goal is now a coeff var so it can be modified in-game for debugging/playtesting purposes
- Simplified some list checks for gang
- Trying to tag an invalid area will just error out and return, instead of the ganger spraying regular grafiti and confusing them

Moves most of the code from violin up to instrument and makes violin a child of it. (Guitar is a child of it as well.)
Fixes violins on Metastation and Box due to the repath, adds the guitar to both.
Changes the RPD to use the newer datum/browser ui, makes it so that it show's what you have picked and doesn't let you endlessly repick it.
Fixes my wonky check for bins/outlets/chutes on walls, also adds a changelog.
Undefs the defines in RPD.dm at the end of the file.
Changes the "Type:" label to "Category:"
- Reverted the boss icon back to use a B. I changed it for a different idea I had but I never went through with it but I forgot to change the icon back
- Price tweaks
- Increased pen cooldown to (15*Gang size)+45 seconds
- Promotion cost now counts how many times you bought that item instead of how many bosses you have, so you can't stockpile on cheap gangtools before promoting anyone
