Earlier this year I made a pr which made it so that the traumas given by abductors could be cured much more easily, my intention for this was to discourage people rushing to medbay for surgery after being abducted. It was quickly shut down due to everyone but me being cringe, I have decided to reignite this discussion here involving traumas.

The trauma encourages people to rush to medbay to get their brain damage fixed, while under the knife the doctors will just remove the organ as it's obvious they'll have a Xeno organ in them. This discourages people roleplaying not knowing they were abducted. The traumas aren't fun for the abductor or abductee, I went for the softer method of nerfing the intensity of the traumas when I honestly wanted to just outright remove them.

How does this make any sense?

The abductor trauma thing is the least fun one

Example of good abductor organ that you can actually rp around: mindshock gland, this one is really fun, i spent a while as a qm having a mental breakdown(ic of course) over the fact that whenever i got a headache people around me suffered, when i went into medbay to get meds for the headache it activated and killed two people with high brain damage(brain rot virus also happening). Another good one for the “what the fuck is happening to me” vibe is the quantum gland and electric gland.
Blood gland is straight up the funniest shit ever, nothing beats going to medbay and discovering you have a blood type of cyanide.

However the trauma one is an example of a bad organ, little to no rp opportunities(brain traumas right now are in such a bad state for any rp, i am looking at you phobias with your shitty mechanics) and you immediately go to med to get it removed because fuck the trauma gland nobody likes the trauma gland fuck that thing

yeah traumas suck

It's also basically impossible to escape being dragged into treatment the moment a Medical Doctor scans you and the harder you try to weasel out of it, the more suspicious they get about it.

Fine. Let me figure out how mapping works and I'll implement an organ grower so abductors have the option of frankensteining shit.

While we're on the topic of Abductors, why don't they know what the organs do in-game?

The scientist abductor can examine them to see which one they are

I don't necessarily agree with the method but the thought is that people won't have their ayy organ removed as often if they don't go to medical to remove the trauma.

On another note, by trauma you guys mean the brainwashing right? Isn't that literally against the rules to actively get removed since a brainwashed person can't question the brainwashing?

Or innate AA.
The spider gland is also FUN. Pair it with a hypnotic suggestion that turns them into a broodmother for maximum memes
