giacomand@gmail.com a56e922053 Committing for Cael_Aislinn:
= Giant Spiders =
- Nurses spin webs which impede progress, bundle items and mobs up in cocoons, lay eggs to create spiderlings
- Nurses are slow and weak, but their bite has a chance to paralyse the victim
- Spiderlings skitter about and eventually grow into giant spiders. 
- Spiderlings will ventcrawl, so they can spread over the station pretty fast. 
- Hunters are fast, have decent health and the most effective poison
- Guards are medium speed but the health and direct damage
- The poison of hunters and guards can cause hallucinations if they bite you

= Farm animals =
- Cows can be milked or butchered for a large supply of meat. Sadists can also tip them over (with intent_help). 
- Goats can also be milked, but have a nasty temperament. 
- Chicks grow up to be chickens, who lay eggs and continue the cycle. But where did it start? (they're very noisy). 
- All three are orderable via QM. 

My changes:

- Added a spider infestation event.
- Optimized code with spiders and simple_animals.
- Made a /hostile/retaliate type which will only fight back when hurt. Based on Cael's code.
- Added some farm animals on the map.
- Changed events, added a setup() proc which can let you setup variables or the event. Made the event only kill itself when it has called, announce(), start() and end().
- Brainrot will only need alkysine as a cure.
- Communication blackout will always be silent.
- Changed some admin buttons to use the new event system.
- Added a forceEvent proc which you can use when you enable debug verbs.
