## About The Pull Request
The organ refactor 6 months ago changed up organs, making them be
actually inside bodyparts and the mob. This introduced the bug of all
emp effects being called twice on everything thanks to how /mob/living
handles it (Fixed in this PR), but also some new stuff:
Made bodyparts handle organ EMPs. This also means we can now have
support for bodyparts with EMP_PROTECT_CONTENTS protecting the organs
inside.
Made a new proc for bodyparts once they are successfully hit by an emp.
Makes it much easier to add overrides for the behaviour.
Fixed emps hitting bodyparts twice
## Why It's Good For The Game
It lays a groundwork for some interesting limb concepts, and makes organ
emps make a bit more sense.
Fixes a bug that laid unnoticed for 6 months.
## Changelog
🆑
fix: EMPs on carbons no longer happen twice
code: Moves organ emps under bodyparts, changes how bodyparts handle emp
effects

## About The Pull Request
Currently, stamina healing is a niche side effect on many drugs, besides
a few effects (mostly heretic powers, an obscure side effect of some
drinks) that actually contribute to a significant shift in gameplay
style when you use them. In this PR I significantly increased the
stamina recovery on almost every drug and some effects that provide it.
Points of interest (not completely inclusive):
Syndicate stimulants heal 12 instead of 5 stamina damage. This will
bring you out of stam crit in two cycles, and let you heal out of the
slowdown from the stamina damage from a baton strike. The current rate
of 5 takes 5 seconds to heal out of stam crit, and the stamina reset
takes place before you heal out of stamina damage slowdown.
Bath salts heal stamina at the rate stimulants used to. Meth heals
stamina slightly slower.
Changeling adrenaline will instantly bring you out of stam crit if
you're in it; otherwise, it will heal 10 stamina damage.
Ephedrine heals 4 stamina per life, instead of 1.
Being so drunk that you black out and give up your body to ghost control
will make you heal stamina more quickly than an ascended rust heretic.
You will also likely be dying of liver damage.
## Why It's Good For The Game
At the levels they are set, most of these stamina healing effects have
almost no effect on gameplay whatsoever except in the case of tanking a
couple of extra disabler shots (only in the case of the high end drugs),
or being able to do stamina consuming tasks slightly longer (breaking
boulders, grinding with pestle and mortar, working out, ???).
Adjusting these numbers would make these drugs an actual factor in
combat situations that rely on stamina crit (stun batons, ebows, stamina
damaging poisons and diseases). Most of the drugs already have side
effects such as brain and organ damage, which in the current state
hugely outweighs any reason to use most of them besides a few that give
a movespeed buff or prevent baton knockdown (ephedrine, stimulants).
This only affects stamina healing. There has been no change to any other
interactions with things that knock down or cause any other kind of
stun.
These changes are in consideration of the fact that taking stamina
damage puts you in a cooldown before you can recover your stamina
naturally. Effects that cause steady stamina damage will bottom out your
stamina the way they do now, unless you use something to heal it.
## Changelog
🆑
balance: Stamina healing has been significantly increased for most
reagents and passive effects.
/🆑
## About The Pull Request
After being put in stamcrit, future incoming stamina damage has
"diminishing returns" applied*.
The formula looks like `ceil(sqrt(amount of stamina damage) / 2) - times
you have taken stamina damage in stamcrit`.
This means eventually stamina based damage will do less than zero
damage, and thus, not contribute to keeping stamcrit active.
Very, very low amounts of stamina damage (such as from chems) contribute
to DR 1/20th the amount.
*_Note, this is not real diminishing returns because making it real
diminishing returns would be pointless, you are capped to 120 stamina
damage so 99.99% of the time you take stam damage while in stam crit
you're already capped. This is just faking the effect._
In its current stat this means that a stun baton will stop being able to
keep someone in stamcrit after the 5th hit, and a stock disabler will
stop being able to keep someone in stamcrit after the 4th hit.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Mostly just an experiment. I don't imagine it will shake up much about
the baton situation in its current state.
There's also no grace period after getting UP - so like you can just be
stamcritted right after anyways. Maybe there should be one? Food for
thought.
And yes of course you can just space out your hits, you're not clever
for thinking about that
## Changelog
🆑 Melbert
balance: Taking stamina damage in stamcrit has diminishing returns
associated, meaning you cannot be infinitely stamcrit.

## About The Pull Request
- Afterattack is a very simple proc now: All it does is this, and all
it's used for is for having a convenient place to put effects an item
does after a successful attack (IE, the attack was not blocked)
- An overwhelming majority of afterattack implementations have been
moved to `interact_with_atom` or the new `ranged_interact_with_atom`
I have manually tested many of the refactored procs but there was 200+
so it's kinda hard
## Why It's Good For The Game
Afterattack is one of the worst parts of the attack chain, as it
simultaneously serves as a way of doing random interactions NOT AT ALL
related to attacks (despite the name) while ALSO serving as the defacto
way to do a ranged interaction with an item
This means careless coders (most of them) may throw stuff in afterattack
without realizing how wide reaching it is, which causes bugs. By making
two well defined, separate procs for handing adjacent vs ranged
interactions, it becomes WAY WAY WAY more easy to develop for.
If you want to do something when you click on something else and you're
adjacent, use `interact_with_atom`
If you want to do something when you click on something else and you're
not adjacent, use 'ranged_interact_with_atom`
This does result in some instances of boilerplate as shown here:
But I think it's acceptable, feel free to oppose if you don't I'm sure
we can think of another solution
~~Additionally it makes it easier to implement swing combat. That's a
bonus I guess~~
## Changelog
🆑 Melbert
refactor: Over 200 item interactions have been refactored to use a
newer, easier-to-use system. Report any oddities with using items on
other objects you may see (such as surgery, reagent containers like cups
and spray bottles, or construction devices), especially using something
at range (such as guns or chisels)
refactor: Item-On-Modsuit interactions have changed slightly. While on
combat mode, you will attempt to "use" the item on the suit instead of
inserting it into the suit's storage. This means being on combat mode
while the suit's panel is open will block you from inserting items
entirely via click (but other methods such as hotkey, clicking on the
storage boxes, and mousedrop will still work).
refactor: The detective's scanner will now be inserted into storage
items if clicked normally, and will scan the storage item if on combat
mode

Changelings now do not like fire, as is tradition.
If they are on fire, they no longer generate chemicals until they put
the fire out.
If they are on fire, they no longer can use any changeling powers until
they put the fire out.
All changeling equippable items like armblades, shields, armor,
spacesuits, etc. are now flammable and super-duper vulnerable to flames.
The Armblade now costs 30 chemicals to equip, and has a DNA cost of 3,
compared to the previous 20 chemicals and 2 DNA cost.
The Armblade now shatters after enough uses in exactly the same way as
the Shield; extract genomes with Absorb to maximize your Armblade's
efficiency. for its' chemical cost.
Fixes items you're holding not catching on fire alongside the rest of
you when you light on fire.
Fixes the Changeling Shield having one more hit than it was supposed to.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Changeling has been in a relatively incredibly rough state ever since
someone walked up to this predominatly stealth and intrigue based
antagonist and went "lets turn it into a carbon copy of an early 2000s
action game I just played".
Since then, just about every changeling has been a loud changeling. The
stats speak for themselves; Changelings are no longer a stealth antag
and they're defined by having an undroppable e-sword, armor, and HP
regen they can use mid-fight. They're just loud beatsticks now instead
of the scary stealth antagonist they were years ago.
I'm expecting a lot of pushback from the adrenaline addicts who dislike
the concept of stealth, to which I say: too bad.
Giving Changelings a weak point in the form of fire is not only
thematically appropriate for the original inspiration for Changeling,
but also provides the crew a way to actually scare off changelings back
into hiding, and encourages more usage of fire-causing weapons. This is
going to shake up changelings, and
Nerfing the hell out of the Armblade is going to encourage changelings
to take stealthier approaches to combat, and utilize the rest of their
power assortment that isn't just focused around being a gigantic
unstoppable beatstick.

Chefs have a limited access to crab meat unless miners are generous

crab rangoon or other recipes that call for the meat raw.. miners on the

## About The Pull Request
So crew records weren't actually showing the right quirks for
latejoiners, and in at least one instance (heterochromatic eyes) even
the fingerprint was wrong. The latter seemed to be caused by a recent
fix pr making the quirk actually update your dna, for the sake of
paradox clones/changelings.
Looking into it, this seemed to be because we assign quirks to
latejoiners _after_ injecting them into the manifest:
b7225d8486/code/modules/mob/dead/new_player/new_player.dm (L218-L244)
See line 219 and 244.
So we move manifest injection to be _after_ quirk assignment:
```dm
(line 242-246)
if((job.job_flags & JOB_ASSIGN_QUIRKS) && humanc && CONFIG_GET(flag/roundstart_traits))
SSquirks.AssignQuirks(humanc, humanc.client)
if(humanc) // Quirks may change manifest datapoints, so inject only after assigning quirks
GLOB.manifest.inject(humanc)
```
This fixes it.

## About The Pull Request
- Adds in checks for the borg consumables resupplying to stop drawing
power once supplies are full. Specifically, the `respawn_consumables()`
proc will run attempting to stock everything it can, and will return
TRUE if any item required stocking.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Certain borg tools are still supplied by the borg chargers directly at a
power cost because material costs just don't make sense. These did not
have a check in place for if the various resources were full, meaning
every process cycle a bit of the borg's cell would be used attempting to
restock things. Since it's a percentage of the cell's current charge, a
filled bluespace cell could have a surprising power leak.
Now that borg chargers pull directly from the SMES units, borgs don't
recharge if the powernet is empty (regardless of local APC charge). But
borg consumables restocking carries on, which causes borgs to slowly
drain. So I have added some checks to stop the drain if nothing was
actually done.

All sneezes shoot projectiles, but depends on the virus if they're

## Why It's Good For The Game
I think the invisible infection mechanics are unfun. A lot of station
dangers challenge your knowledge and mechanical skill, while viruses are
gotten by being around people in a roleplay game. You can get a round
seriously ruined if you walk past someone with a sneezing virus and
don't immediately rush spaceillin or chemistry, which I don't think is
mechanically interesting.
Now if you get infected, it's a skill issue. Get good and dodge the
sneeze
Note that this is just one method of infection. I didn't touch coughing
and airborne viruses, which do constant area checks and infect everyone
around. I plan to, but not now. I'll probably make coughing do a cone or
something, and ignore the airborne viruses since they can't be modified
and are generally less broken

## About The Pull Request
Before PR:
Giving mutadone to a monkey turns it into a human
Giving mutadone to a human does nothing about its human status
After PR:
Giving mutadone to a monkey created from a monkey cube does nothing
about its monkey status
Giving mutadone to a monkey which was originally a human restores it to
being a human
Giving mutadone to a human who has never been a monkey does nothing
about its human status
Giving mutadone to a human who was originally a monkey returns it to
being a monkey
I couldn't think of any better way to achieve this than putting a trait
on the monkey typepath but if anyone has one, I'd love to hear it
(actually, maybe I could just typecheck the mob... but that seems
equally gross)
## Why It's Good For The Game
Treating "being a monkey" as a mutation makes sense from the perspective
of the DNA console but not from the perspective of certain other game
mechanics.
A chemical which "removes all mutations" should _intuitively_ restore
people to the state they were in at the start of the round (so monkeys
turned into humans should return to monkey, and vice versa) rather than
unilaterally enact rapid evolution upon monkeys.
At least, I don't _think_ it's meant to be a lore implication that all
test apes on the station are transformed humans...
This has a couple of side effects, both of which I think are desirable.
Firstly- some mechanics work on humans but not monkeys (see #83698), and
can be circumvented by spraying mutadone gas into a monkey pen. This
will now only be achievable by individually mutating each monkey, which
requires more effort for whatever your desired result is.
Secondly- this adds a downside to the common "cure-all" surgical method
of turning a monkey into a human and transplanting a brain into it. This
new body will still genetically remember being a monkey, adding some
element of risk to this otherwise undramatic means of curing basically
any ailment in the game.
Thirdly- Some people have admitted to using mutadoned monkeys to create
a large number of humans to kill for Heretic and Changeling progression,
which I also don't want them to do, so making this take longer is a
positive.

## About The Pull Request
Closes#82746
PR #77569 replaced the clone damage inflicted by slimes with a lingering
damage over time effect which can be removed with water.
This is all well and good for humans who can spray themselves with fire
extinguishers, showers, or sinks... but most other mobs are not actually
capable of opearating any form of equipment which can make them wet.
This PR allows you to click on the debuff icon to shake the slime off
slowly over time (15 seconds to fully remove the debuff).
This is slower than the recovery time when wet.
Dogs, Cats, and by extension, Felinids are better at removing slime
because of their self-cleaning prowess (they're always licking weird
stuff off themselves). This is rarely helpful if you're not a Felinid,
because almost all cats and dogs have so little health that they will
hit the minimum health threshold and lose the debuff anyway by the time
they would be done.
In the very niche circumstance that a sentient wolf is attacked by a
slime they will appreciate this bonus.
## Why It's Good For The Game
This was a replacement for slimes inflicting clone damage (I am not sure
this even did anything for most simple mobs?) but essentially turned
slimes into an automatic death sentence for most forms of mob without
hands.
Technically the slime debuff cannot kill you and stops if you are under
10 HP, but this is small consolation for most of these mobs which cannot
heal themselves either.
You are still probably going to take between 30-60 damage during the 15
seconds of removing slime from your body.
## Changelog
🆑

be scraped off with your hands, or shaken off in some other way, by
clicking on the debuff. This is slower and less effective than washing
it off using water.

## About The Pull Request
Breacher and Viper player-controlled Spiders have swapped castes; Vipers
now come from Abnormal Eggs, while Breachers will now come from Enriched
Eggs. This means that Vipers may be seen more, while Breachers require
the Nest to acquire at least a single kill to wrap and create an
Enriched Egg from. Nurse Spiders also perform their heal action much
faster, at the cost of a bit less healing. It was very difficult to heal
others due to the long do_after and thus we saw very few Nurse Spiders.
Breacher Spiders also are now NOT immune to cold, and will die if they
try to space a room or go into space.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Breacher Spiders are in kind of a difficult spot, both in theming and
balance; their space resistance made them able to vent the station in
multiple places by breaking key walls, and they had no need to commit to
their sieges because they could escape into space at all times. It also
broke part of the dynamic of Spiders wanting to keep the atmosphere in
the station, and disincentivizing Breachers from venting the station
also makes them more coherently a part of the Nest because they won't
reduce the Nest's habitable area.
Viper Spiders were seen quite little instead of the other options in the
Enriched Egg; now, hopefully we'll see more. Likewise, the Breacher is
quite powerful for being an Abnormal Egg, so perhaps now we'll see more
focus on cocooning to unlock the powerful Breachers, or just overall
less of them, which will help even the odds.
Nurse Spiders were VERY underutilized despite their power— the do_after
for their healing just felt obnoxiously long, and especially in tense
situations, you'd have shuffle and Spiders yelling at one another
because two of them have to Space Hulk the hallway for a semi-extended
period of time. Now, Nurses will be able to heal and move on a bit
faster. I don't believe this will create too many issues, balance-wise,
as the time-to-kill on Spiders is still quite low for all but the
tankiest against lasers and even welders.
## Changelog

## About The Pull Request
Currently, if you handcuff someone and they only have sign language
available to speak in (mute, no tongue, nearby people are deaf, you have
bronchitis(?)), they are rendered totally unable to communicate with
anything but emotes. This is stifling to trying to roleplay with nearby
people who want to keep you cuffed for whatever reason (security,
antagonists, weirdos who keep hugging you, etc).
So instead, I've made it so that if you use sign language while
handcuffed, you are still able to sign, but to a much more limited
degree (3 - 5 words per message).
If you're put in a straightjacket, you're still totally unable to use
sign language.
Additionally, I spruced up the messages that sign language uses to
signify tone (?, !) and added one for EXCLAIMED QUESTIONS?! I also made
the emotes work as emotes, rather than the small (easily missable)
messages in the chat box. These emotes will not fire if you sign with
tone while cuffed, to avoid you becoming a spam machine.
## Why It's Good For The Game
It lets cuffed sign language users communicate, which is usually a
pretty good thing when it comes to improving a scene for both them and
the people they're playing with.
It improves the descriptiveness of the inquisitive and exclamatory tone
messaging for sign language users, and also adds one for a combination
of the two tones.

## About The Pull Request
1. Rather than checking every life tick to try to spread via air, it
checks every breath tick. IE, every 8 seconds.
2. Wearing a mask now protects you from catching airborne diseases,
rather than only protecting you from spreading it.
3. Wearing a mask is no longer guaranteed effective (unless on
internals), it now scales based on BIO armor. This is doubly effectively
for people wearing a mask to stop spreading to others vs wearing a mask
to block spreading to them.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Wearing any kind of mask means airborne viruses will never spread, but
also wearing any kind of mask on the opposite end is pointless unless on
internals. Kinda silly.
This PR unifies those behaviors. Wearing a mask to stop spread is still
rewarded, as BIO armor is doubly effective at stopping a spread attempt
as blocking a spread attempt.
Ultimately the goal of this is to give players a realistic way to
protect themselves against airborne transmission vectors besides staying
on internals 100% of the time.
## Changelog
🆑 Melbert
balance: Wearing a mask can now prevent you from being spread airborne
diseases. Prior, it only stopped you from spreading it yourself.
balance: Wearing a mask no longer 100% guarantees you don't spread
viruses to others people - it now scales on the masks BIO armor. Get a
sterile mask from Medical for max safety.
balance: Wearing a mask to stop you from spreading to other people is
doubly effective than wearing a mask to prevent spread to yourself -
Mask up for the greater good!
balance: Passive airborne virus spread attempts are now done every time
you breathe (every eight seconds), rather than every two seconds. The
chance of spread is the same, though - it has been scaled up to
accommodate.
code: Cleaned up a fair bid of airborne-transmission-code. Report any
oddities.

## About The Pull Request
My delayed reaction to #68451
**When an AI is alive, on main power, and not SSD its bolts cannot be
raised or lowered externally thus returning some small amount of
autonomy to everyone's favorite brain in a box.**
I tested to be sure this change does not interfere with (de)construction
or other tool actions besides their "must be anchored" requirements.
Should maintainers wish I can adjust the check to allow external
lowering, but not raising, of the bolts anytime to satisfy those
scenarios.
I decided to include "is on backup power (incapacitated)" in the check
as a middle ground so when moving an AI from a bombed sat or the like
anyone who is now used to being able to wrench for a rescue is not
caught off guard since AI gets a harsh penalty for moving bolts on
backup power (most likely overlooked in the original PR). This also
means if you really want to move an active AI Core against its will you
still have a path forward aside from _convincing_ the AI to raise them
voluntarily.
## Why It's Good For The Game
IMO this sort of check should have been included in the original
changes, or at least made to post the anchor status message to the AI's
chat rather than a balloon they are likely to miss. An incapacitated AI
is much more likely to be watching their core.
In the grand scheme this changes very little for anyone out to get an AI
since they will most likely just card or smash it to death anyway. It's
mostly just good for a little silicon piece of mind.

## About The Pull Request
So, with the somewhat-recent power changes, cells now have a shitton of
charge compared to the old one.
Now, recently, the `model.respawn_consumable` call in
`/mob/living/silicon/robot/proc/charge` was changed to use this
variable, so every time you had a borg inside a charger, it would
constantly drain 0.5% of its cell charge, and use it for the light
replacer charge calculation.
### The light replacer
So, we now have about 200000 as the charge coefficient on bluespace
cells. On code that was made back for 1000 charge in like 2012 according
to the gitblame. Slight issue: **There's a fucking for loop looping
200000 times every time we charge**, calling
`/obj/item/lightreplacer/proc/Charge` every time it loops. It has no
break condition, so it does this every machinery tick. This, with a
single janiborg with a blue cell kills the machinery subsystem and
causes a hell of a lot of overtime, and a hilarious profiler log:
### The fix
Simply not make the light replacer calculation loop like this and just
use division and a modulo, like a normal sensible coder, plus adjust it
to the new cell values.
See the profiler log now:
## Why It's Good For The Game
It fixes a potentially game killing bug. A FUCK moment to be sure
## Warning for upstreams

## About The Pull Request
This PR turns gondolas into basic mobs and does some fiddling with
gondola pods
Their verbs are now action buttons which they lose upon delivering. If
set to stay, they won't have their abilities afterwards (or wont get
them in the first place if the delivery is already done).
Lets them survive without a pod requirement in case admins want to spawn
one for their own stuff, so I also removed it from the snowflake checks
to exclude them from stuff.
Also replaced the hardcoded "cant speak" with simply giving the mute
trait, so admins can make gondolas speak if they want to for any reason.
## Why It's Good For The Game
The pet level of simple animals can finally be killed off, also gives
admins more control over gondola-related stuff if they so wish.

## About The Pull Request
- Presumably due to being spawned off-station on (I believe) the
centcomm Z-level, Minebots ordered via points and that are delivered by
the shuttle are stuck with their AI in the idle state. Rather than
override a bunch of base-level AI code, I made clicking on them set
their status to active. Right-clicking will set this without opening the
bot's UI, while left-clicking will do both. Examine text now gives users
a hint about this.

functionality was removed in an earlier PR.

## About The Pull Request
`move_on_shuttle` was a variable that existed on `/mob` despite only
ever being used by cameras. This PR downgrades the variable to only
exist on `/mob/camera` types, but have the only thing that variable do
is add a trait that blocks movement on shuttles if not allowed. This
allows us to check the variable without casting to camera, which is what
some code was un-necessarily doing. This also retainst the ability to
add the trait later on to different mobs who we may not want to be on
shuttles that aren't `/mob/camera`.
## Why It's Good For The Game
There's no point for this variable to live on `/mob` if all it can do is
clog up the VV screen, especially if the current utilization for it is
only cameras. Let's move it off `/mob` and turn it into a trait so it
still has the similar utilization on a global level without typecasting
- as well as make it actually work since needless typecasting was
introducing a minor bug

this pr adds a new fish to lavaland and icebox, the lavaloop! i noticed

find this fish by using reinforced rods on lava or plasmarivers. this
fish is also lobstrosity's favorite delicacy as you will now often see
AI controlled lobstrosities fishing for it in lava and then eating it.
because of its body's curvature and razor sharp spikes, this fish can
also be used as a make-shift boomerang weapon against mining mobs,
although it comes with some new mechanics. u can increase the damage it
does to mobs by winding up ur throw. when the bar reaches purple, this
indicates maximum damage. however, if it goes over the purple, it will
react violently and explode your arm off, so you have to time it just
right to get the best damage possible. On icebox, instead of dealing raw
damage, fish will freeze mobs depending on how long you charged ur
throw. charging it for too long will cause the fish to freeze you
instead

## About The Pull Request
This PR does a handful of things to make the hostile "Legion" mob less
dangerous.
Firstly: They will spawn extra mobs half as often.
Secondly: Those mobs have the "attack forecast" component also used by
Goliaths and some other mining mobs.
Also now Legions can't spawn skulls while they're inside pipes or bags,
because that doesn't make any sense.
## Why It's Good For The Game
When converted to basic mobs these guys became _far_ more deadly than
they were supposed to be, to the point where even approaching a Legion
tendril was basically suicide.
This was compounded by an issue which would sometimes cause 33% more
Legions to be present at the tendril than were supposed to spawn there,
but they'd still be fairly scary with just 3 of them.
There were a couple of causes of this which this PR does something to
address:
- Simple mob AI was simply a lot more sluggish than Basic Mobs. Legions
now react faster and more reliably _actually_ spawn skulls at every
available opportunity whereas previously despite having the same
cooldown they wouldn't always bother.
- Similarly, the skulls themselves were slower to pick a target and
slower to attack, whereas Basic Mob skulls will melee you the instant
they detect that you are in range.
- This also means three (or four with the spawner bug) Legions dropping
adds on you the second they see _you_, with no guarantee that you have
yet seen them. The damage starts to become quite hard to avoid, and 4x
Legion skulls (with another four spawning in two seconds) dealing 12
damage each would crit you very quickly.
- Our click CD means it's not even possible to punch four skulls in two
seconds even if you managed to time it perfectly.
So to solve this: Spawn fewer of them, they do less damage, and you can
step away from their attacks (this gets pretty hard when you're
surrounded, but that is by design).
Eventually I am probably going to play like 20 rounds of miner, look at
all of the mining mobs we have on each map, and then completely redraw
what their roles are in a way that probably changes what this mob does
quite significantly... but I'm not going to do it yet. This should do
for now.
## Changelog
🆑
balance: The melee attacks from small mobs spawned by Legions can now be
dodged.

## About The Pull Request
Grants the Research Director TRAIT_STRENGTH via their skill chip. This
trait is only relevant to athletics-related activities. They still need
to actually do the workout before they see any results.
Fitness bros will overestimate the RD's power level due to their ability
to suplex an immovable rod.
Suplexing a rod grants an incredible amount of athletics skill,
increased by how many people the rod has taken out. The frequency of
this happening is bound to be pretty small, but it's a nice in-round
reward for accomplishing the task (and maybe blowing up a department as
a result), and also potentially a large number of casualties on top of
that.
## Why It's Good For The Game
The athletics changes didn't acknowledge that there is already someone
on the station that is, for some reason, unnaturally stronger than
everyone else. The Research Director. So now, fitness bros think they're
naturally swole. Mind over matter, I guess?
I just think it'd be funny if by suplexing the rod once, you gain
incredible physical power and then need to take a nap because boy that
sure was an explosive amount of strength you had to apply. Since this
only happens with looping rods, I don't imagine it will disrupt fitness
as a skill too much.
## Changelog
