Basic Proximity Checker
Inteded for use with the proximity checker component /datum/component/proximity_monitor.
Whenever a movable atom crosses this object, it calls HasProximity() on the object which is listening for proximity (hasprox_receiver).
Because these objects try to make the smallest footprint possible, when these objects move they should use direct loc setting only, and not forceMove!
The overhead for forceMove is very unnecessary, because for example turfs and areas don't need to know when these have entered or exited them, etc.
These are invisible objects who's sole purpose is to simply inform the receiver that something has moved within X tiles of the it.
