## About The Pull Request Title; this makes the belt able to morph into _more_ mobs, but _less problematic/abusable_ mobs hopefully. It still only functions on basic/simple_animals, however. ~~Headslugs get a `MOB_UNDEAD` bioflag to prevent morphing into them completely. Though catching a sentient ling slug and morphing everyone into it is funny, it's only funny the first 5 times someone does it. (disclaimer: this is an approximation, i did not actually see a polymorph belt in-game because i currently play miner and like 10 games a week tops) Arguably, this isn't ideal, but it's the closest we get unless we rename `MOB_EPIC` or something into `MOB_SPECIAL` and let that one be the go-to bioflag for mobs we don't want **fun** things happen to.~~ `MOB_EPIC` is now `MOB_SPECIAL`. Headslugs get that. I think the alternative methow could use whatever the gold cores use to determine what to spawn but that would shift the mobs available for the belt even more and I can't be assed to figure out how _much_ of a shift that would be. Dragons or slimes or lavaland mobs would be out, for example. Don't really vibe with that. Fixes headslug's description bit that discerns a sentient slug from an AI one showing up on a dead slug. It can't move while it's dead, no matter its mind/AI. Also adds simple dmdoc comments to the defines to help discern a few of them more easily. Non-quip text suggestions welcome. ## Why It's Good For The Game - Resolves #77756 - Resolves #78227 More mobs available for the funny belt but less _fun_ mobs should allow for more stable use of the damn thing. Arguably, some of the mobs that have been found to be incompatible with the belt are simply lacking a `MOB_ORGANIC` flag, some of them with no apparent reason. However, blacklisting potentially problematic biotypes should be easier to design the unwanted mobs around. Also consistency, less all-ling stations, code clarity. Whatever. ## Changelog 🆑 balance: polymorph belt now blacklists mobs that are undead, humanoid, robotic or spiritual (in nature, not religiously), as well as megafauna balance: however, this means that it works with more mobs that it should logically work with, like slimes/bugs/lightgeists etc fix: fixed headslug shenanigans with the polymorph belt hopefully for good this time fix: fixed headslug description mentioning its movement despite the slug being dead /🆑
