## About The Pull Request Reverts PR #83456 which added the weight system as well as applying it to two symptoms, sneezing, and coughing. ## Why It's Good For The Game The weight system was originally added to in the hopes a general nerf to dangerous diseases. This also had the side effect of reducing a decent amount of potential from good diseases by a fair bit as well. The PR I am reverting was merged during a time where the Virology job was just removed and people were throwing nerfs at it left and right to see what would stick. A minor nerf to Virology from #83459 and #83423 however has already solved most of the issues regarding dangerous diseases by allowing people with low resistance diseases to self-cure themselves automatically as well as reducing the overall stage speed by a fair bit allowing for a lot more time to make up a cure and respond in a timely manner. While the latter made airborne spreading methods overall less effective. This was ultimately done at a point where several other nerfs or changes regarding advanced diseases were made with the purpose of nerfing the Virology section of the game even further to a ridiculous degree such as #83458 and #83454. As a side effect, this also closes #86952. It doesn't help that the PR didn't make a token effort in making the change known in a way ingame to anyone working on Virology. Thus making it seem as if the symptom cap was reduced to 5 for most cases for unknown reasons causing a lot of frustration where even reaching to other people in a well populated server wouldn't know why the symptom cap would only allow 5 symptoms. ## Changelog 🆑 del: Removed the weighting of viro symptoms /🆑 Co-authored-by: David Andersen <DAVID.ANDERSEN6113@STU.MTEC.EDU>
