I'll have to test things when I'm able. The idea of being able to make pod people that can recharge machines and devices on contact through the Capacitive Cell and Electrical Activity traits is wild. Though nobody ever accepts the pod person revive, so that'll be a pain to test absent volunteers.

I think that's more due to the timing issues, as in somebody being dead for so long they're afk/logged out. Personally I accept any revive unless I'd rather just not play for OOC reasons and if I find a body without a head I'm dumping it in botany, not medbay, and sometimes as AI I panic about botanists killing each other for a second until I realise they're just podcloning each other.

It shouldn't work, but I might have missed something browsing the code.

So a point blank buckshot or a buckshot where every pellet hits deals 75 damage, opposed to the Slug's 60. However the slug is more reliable for ranged shots, while the buckshot is best for people running around like idiots or people at relatively close range. Thus, people should probably use buckshot in close quarters and when they can land most, if not all, of the pellets, or when people are being evasive and you just need to hit them a bit, and slugs when they have reliable aim, and a distance where the buckshot's spread will fuck it over, Or against more heavily armored blokes, as armor will only apply once instead of to each of 5 projectiles.
Nice.

I can speak from very recent and personal experience that, if someone is coming at you with a shotgun and there is nobody else around, run away or disable that person.

Yeah, If they can get good shots in, and if it's not the bartender's double barrel, and especially so if it IS a Combat shotgun or the warden's compact that they're using, They can at least get one reliable guaranteed kill in. Pump actions arent as scary, but the warden's compact is... a nightmare to fight.

On another note, is it normal for me to be as persistant as a fucking terminator when it comes to guarding armoury and killing blokes who tried to break in through space?

It has the same armor value as the vest you spawn with but it is capable of storing a large weapon, such as a shotgun, in its suit storage.

I'm not doubting you can still become a carrier of the fungal infection, but I'm curious if it will still cause respiratory shutdown or instead will just be a minor inconvenience aside from making you a typhoid mary. I may have to experiment if I ever end up in the position to. I'd probably be lynched for spending the research points, though. Maybe not during ops proper, though.

It's hardcoded so it basically just kills you with huge oxyloss damage, but you do need to have the lungs organ subtype to contract it. I believe even mechanical lungs count for this. It doesn't do organ damage or anything like that, since the code is pretty much original from the goon leak.

Yes, you have to simply replace the battery in the APC of the room. If there is a powersink isolating the room from the powernet by snipping the wires leading out of the room will prevent the battery from being drained.

If there is no APC in the room, simply define it as a room and build an APC for it.

After screwing around on a private server, it seems like Sentient Disease requires Xenomorph enabled in your preferences. Probably midround antag too.
