Make medibots ignore viral infections by default

Post by newfren » #320441

With the new virology update many new diseases naturally have a cure of spaceacillin instead of being always salt when you just crammed all the good symptoms in. Neutered symptoms also still count towards making the face green and unhappy instead of blue and happy. For example: I had a disease with neutered fever, neutered itching, viral evolutionary acceleration, eternal youth, heat resistance, and flesh mending. This had a cure of spaceacillin and while it had no negative treatments (as fever and itching were both neutered) it still had the sad green face and all the medibots scurrying around curing people. If there's an actual viral outbreak then the doctors can just turn viral treatment on, otherwise this helps stop all of virology's work being ruined by the roundstart medibot.

Also give me 8 symptoms back

They only try to cure it if it has negative symptoms, like sneezing.

They will also try to cure it if those negative symptoms are neutered and only acting as a buff. Also I have no idea how to navigate github which is why I requested this here on the forums instead of writing a PR.

[20:26:02]ADMIN: PM: [censored admin]->[censored]: Welp. It was just a prank bro isn't a very good excuse when it comes to unprovoked nonantag murder, but since this is your first time doing it and you seem to understand the problem instead of a bannu I'm just going to leave you with a warning. Please PLEASE don't do this again in the future, as funny as crackhead broken bottle memes can be. Alrighty? Do you have any input on this?
[20:26:39]ADMIN: PM: [censored]->[censored admin]: Alright, no problem. I have some input. Fuck my boy pussy.
[20:27:06]ADMIN: PM: [censored admin]->[censored]: Okay then. Have fun.
[20:31:29]ADMIN: PM: [censored admin]->[censored]: Excuse me?

Spaceacillin prevents you from transmitting a virus if it's in your system.
It's honestly too hard to make, and metablised too fast to be of practical use except in the rare case when a disease is cured by it. It'd be better off if it was in a sleeper because I never make any as a chemist unless I know there's a disease about with Spaceacillin as its cure.
