There's a setting on bellies (off by default except for the first belly you're ever given which is on by default) as to whether or not they can 'taste' prey. If so, and the prey has set their (literal) flavor text in their vore prefs (button at the bottom) you will be shown their taste when ingested into that belly.
There's also a "Lick Someone" verb in IC that allows you to lick adjacent mobs to see what they taste like.
Both system account for reagents splashed on the mob, so if you want to apply soy sauce to the akula before you eat them, you should be able to taste that as well. Just keep in mind those splashed reagents do dry up eventually, so don't take too long to eat them after that if you actually want to taste it.
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)
