Holoparasites need a little help. If they float/fly over a hazard, their owner takes damage from it. This is fine when it's stuff like glass shards, but if you get a powerminer on lavaland and it flies over lava you die pretty much instantly. Holos stepping on things seems like a bug to me- they hav...

Re: Delete virology

Most of the complaints used to remove nanites can be applied to virology, such as passive regen being bad for the game.
On top of this, virology has a weird gameplay loop where the virologist doesn't do any of the work to actually cure the virus, it's the chemist who does all the heavy lifting.

Re: I want to nerf the damage, armor, and HP of lavaland.

We technically already have snowflake code preventing station weapons from doing much. If less than 30 damage is dealt and it wasn't brute damage, the damage gets divided by three. This is for all lavaland mobs(but not megafauna, after a quick code dive).

ED: also, B is preferable to A or C.
