Lets you pick a language to translate INTO from your known languages. If you then hand it off to someone who doesn't speak that, they won't be able to read the text on the screen. They can just reboot it and pick their own language.
Mostly for fluff, for people who would rather see things translated into their more-well-known language that they speak better.
Turn it on, keep it in hand or pocket, and it'll translate languages for you (not signlanguage...).
It doesn't bother displaying languages that you speak. I assume your character doesn't look down at the screen if they understood what was said (it's mostly just to prevent spam when only 1 in 4 people standing around talking is speaking another language).
There's one on a desk in the security locker room and one in the medical breakroom. I figure these two departments have the highest need of translations. R&D can make more. The design is fairly cheap.
Adds it to science. Has a high materials and research cost, and is considered ***contraband***, as it says in the description.
Also included in this PR is device_alt.dmi, a bunch of alternate device sprites which can be fun for stuff.
Now you can start with them in loadout. They are no longer SUNglasses though, so they won't protect you from flashes.
There are several models, the loadout ones are the civilian ones.
- Civilian: Displays job ID icon based on the person's ID, and shows a health bar only if they are injured.
- Medical: Same as civlian, but displays advanced status (virus, borer, etc) along with backup implant status, and allows medical records access.
- Security: Same as civilian, but displays warrant and arrest status, and will automatically darken (electrochromic) in response to flashes, making the wearer immune, plus security records access.
- Engineering: Same as civilian, but will automatically darken to protect one's eyes during welding.
- Research: Same as civilian, but has a trendy goggle form factor for SCIENCE reasons.
- Omni: Has the combined features of all of the above. The only pair available spawns in the CD's office. (CC officers also)
Also fixes *flip to not print an error message (emotes must have messages that they display) and redoes how vials start with reagents to make it easier to code them. Also swapping genders as a promethean won't randomize your hair anymore. That was silly, and relevant to Dragor's thing.
