(Updated entire page. Removed many mentions of cloning and updated stuff to show geneticist is now a science job. If any tips were important I have probably already added them elsewhere. Left some tips I may want to remove instead.)

You start in [[Medbay]] and literally get to play God. This is a very technical class, but there are a few simple things people can do that are still learning the ins and out of genetics. The main thing you're meant for: find super powers, fix disabilities, and cloning dead people.

===Genetic Backup===
 
You can take a scan off of someone while they're alive and create a genetic backup ready to be cloned in case they die. This is useful to those of especially high risk of an irretrievable death like the chief engineer or captain. If the scientists have upgraded the cloner, the console can be set to autoprocess, which means that you don't even have to leave your desk.

* Clones start with 190 clone loss and 99 brain damage, they can be ejected with a geneticists ID at 120 clone loss (about 40% complete). The cloner takes about 2:30 minutes to pop out an almost complete clone. Ejecting at 40% then sticking in a cryotube speeds up the process by only a few seconds, but does mean you can clone multiple people at once. Force ejecting by either turning off APC power or emagging the clone tube then shoving them in the cryo tubes does finish them almost twice as fast AND means you can clone 3 people at the same time.
 
* Turning off the APC's equipment power also ejects a clone regardless of health. Good for speedcloning. Clone one to 25%, throw in cryo, clone another to 25%, throw in cryo, clone one guy until the first guy in cryo is done, repeat.

==WHAT HAS SCIENCE DONE?!==
 
As a [[traitor]], you are pretty much able to do anything you want to dead people in your lab, granted you don't have a [[Roboticist|coworker]] or [[Head of Security|baby sitter]]. After sticking about for a few moments, any [[security]] forces usually vanish from the room of medium priority targets, like the [[Research Director|RD]] or [[Chief Engineer|CE]]. At this time, you can then loot their items and access, or even their appearance! You can easily replace people, just be sure to get rid of the original and wear the right clothes! Perhaps it will help you in the long run.

The genetics lab is located in Science (moved from medbay Jan, 2020).

Genetic Research

Manipulating the DNA of humanoids is your main job. What you choose to use the results for is up to you.

See the Guide to Genetics for a detailed guide about how it works. Experimentation is encouraged.

Tips

  • If someone has a cavity implanted item, you can instantly remove it by monkeying them.
  • Monkeying someone who is impregnated will cure them.
  • The Genetics DNA altering console can spit out injectors UE and UI. This means that if you get a willing volunteer, or even just human a monkey, you can run around the station changing everyone into the same person (if you do this without being antag or having people’s con-sent, you may get banned).
  • Radiation (and mutagen) has a very, VERY small chance to give non-negative effects.
  • If the mime's being a jackass, stealthily inject him/her with a Tourettes injector, and watch them get lynched for breaking their vow

Traitortips

  • Monkey injectors are a hell of a weapon.
  • Change your identity if you're caught being a shitler. Keeps people off of you.
  • Telekinesis is a useful mutation. Especially combined with X-ray. With it you can:
    • Bash people with items. If they pick the item up you can still hit them with it.
    • Steal items across desks
    • Kill people through cameras
    • Operate basic machinery
    • Be an all around douchebag
    • And if you have x-ray you're even more unstoppable than before. You can hide in lockers in maint and dick around all you want.
  • XRAY + TK can be used to onehuman the AI from outside the upload.
  • You can take bodies to your lab and steal their identities.


DO NOT USE MONKEY INJECTORS ON NON-ANTAG CREW MEMBERS IF YOU ARE NOT AN TRAITOR. THIS WILL GET YOU BANNED.
