* Rebalances and adds more ambush-style cling abilities, buffs chameleon skin and adds a new ability! "Darkness Adaptation" (#81373) ## About The Pull Request This PR adds a new ambush ability to changelings, "Darkness Adaptation" and tweaks the balance of "Chameleon Skin". The new cling ability, "Darkness Adaptation". makes your character translucent and slightly dark while also giving the ability to see slightly better into dark than normally (30% better). While this ability is active, flash protection is lowered by one. Buffs "Chameleon Skin" by reducing the DNA cost to 1 from 2, and sped up the time it takes to go full invisible by 2.5x and zero instability cost Below is the picture of the translucency through normal non-night-vision vision: (note: this is using extremely dark armor already)  Below is the picture of the translucency through the poor night-vision that the ability gives you:  ## Why It's Good For The Game This ability was added in #11148 back in 2015 and hasn't been touched for 9 years. The original ability just gave you the _extremely_ situational "chameleon skin" mutation (one that is accessible to the crew through genetics already). for a whopping **2 mutation points** cost. The mutation makes you invisible after half a minute or so of standing still and is immediately broken the second you move or get pushed. Compared to other similarly costed powers you get for 2 mutation points, this is by far the worst bang for your buck by a large margin. Needless to say, considering with how power-crept everything else in the game is after all these years. this ability that hasn't been touched for ages have fell into disuse to the point of uselessness, especially with the heavy cost it that came with it. This PR buffs that ability by making it cheaper, in line with the cost of other less powerful abilities that clings have. and made it 2.5x faster to turn invisible. The PR also adds another ambush-oriented ability, "Darkness adaptation". The ability allows your character to become translucent and slightly dark while also giving the ability to see slightly better into dark than normally (30% better); with the downside of your eyes being slightly worse than before. This ability follows the general spirit of clings, an stealth-generalist oriented antag that you never know when they would strike (disguises already have this effect, but them being far more able to jump you in maint even more so.). and encourages more creative strategy than just your average murderbone. A Perfect force multiplier for maint combat and maint ambushes. Also synergises well with augmented sight, and the blackish cling armor. Don't worry if you think the new ability, combined with the faster cham skin would make you invisible to the naked eye. The mutation cancels out the translucency of the adaptation. ## Changelog 🆑 add: Adds a new changeling ability, "Darkness Adaptation". Making you more translucent, especially in darkness and allowing you to see slightly better in the dark balance: The changeling power "Chameleon Skin" has been buffed, Reduces the cost to 1 and sped up the time it takes to turn invisible /🆑 --------- Co-authored-by: MrMelbert <51863163+MrMelbert@ users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: Ghom <42542238+Ghommie@ users.noreply.github.com> * Rebalances and adds more ambush-style cling abilities, buffs chameleon skin and adds a new ability!
