• The camera range view debug verb now takes the actual view range of a camera into account
• Thermometers and stethoscopes can now fit in medical belts

2024.09.08

DeityLink updated:

• You can now paint clay pots using a painting brush or paint roller. Nano paint glows in the dark on them.
• Added the ability to craft clay pots directly out of sandstone to remove some of the tedium of producing those, and also raising awareness of their existence.
• You can now empty an ashtray's contents in a disposal unit by simply clicking on the bin with the ashtray. If the ashtray is empty it will be thrown in it instead.
• Ashtrays have an new sprite for when they have at least one cigarette in them.
• Ashtrays now make sound when hit and thrown.
• Broken ashtrays are now properly considered trash items (and thus may persist through rounds)
• The area lights that appear during alerts are now additive, meaning that they don't make your eyes hurt as much, and improve visibility and mood overall.
• Fixed airlocks appearing black for an instant when they flicker their lights in an area that doesn't have dynamic lighting.

SECBATON-GRIFFON updated:

• Hostile mobs spawned in mob cubes are now logged to admins, telling them who opened it and where.
• Extra erroneous window panels on packed bridge wing have been removed.
• The misaligned shuttle diagonal wall on the medical escape pod has been fixed.
• Mobs that end up inside large wooden crates now show up when they get dismantled.
• Self heating cup ramen now only requires the container for the reaction, and does not use calcium oxide within, now only requiring 10u of water to heat and not 12.
• The millilitres on cup ramen's description have been changed to reference units, for consistency.
• Extra panes on synergy permabrig glass have been removed.
• Extra air alarms in synergy secure armory and HoS office have been removed.
• Disposals machinery on synergy is now accessible without breaking glass.
• Pickaxes, shovels, mining drills and plasma torches now have appropriate hit sounds when attacking people, instead of none at all.

2024.09.07

Eneocho updated:

• Clowns can buy Insulted gloves from the autodrobe, these may also be found where budget insulos would be laying around on april fools. Don't cut wires while wearing them, or you will get insulted when you get shocked.

2024.09.06

west3436 updated:

• MoMMIs, Engineering cyborgs, and any cyborgs which have a fire shield installed will no longer catch on fire or take damage from fire.
• Objects will properly stop smoking once they are removed from a hot room.

2024.09.04

2024.09.02

DeityLink updated:

• Chaplains who adhere to the Belmont religion now spawn with a box containing clothing reminiscent of Richter Belmont, and a flask of Sacred Water in their pocket. They can also throw their bible to hit people around them with it.
• Sacred Water is a new reagent that turns Holy Water into more of itself when in contact with it. When splashed on a floor, it creates sacred flames that only burn the unholy (that is, vampires, cultists, and any other supernatural creature)
• Players may now forge a Battle Cross out of silver at an anvil. Battle Crosses are basically boomerangs that deal bonus damage to supernatural creatures, but they only return to the hands of those of the Belmont religion.
• Boomerangs have been rewritten from scratch and now behave more like you would expect from a boomerang in a video game. They are now a lot more reliable so their damage has been lowered from 16 to 10, but they still feel really strong so I'm looking forward to feedback by players who have been on both ends of a boomerang throw.
• Boomerangs have also gotten a re-sprite.
• Attacking supernatural creatures with holy weapons now displays a visual effect.
• Kamina and Simon's glasses have gotten some visual adjustments on top of proper object icons. Furthermore, you can now unleash their power by using them in your hand and throwing them.
• Fixed the wrong icon appearing for some bibles in the religion picker interface.

2024.08.31

DeityLink updated:

• The Floral Somatoray has been refactored and should now behave more as you might expect. You can use it on trays both at range and adjacently, although if someone is standing in-between they might get hit instead.
• You can once again change the brute damage of bees by using the Floral Somatoray on apiaries while it's set to Morphology, while Development controls the yield. There are plans to allow further genetic alterations of bees in the future.
• You can now use a solder to "un-emag" a floral somatoray.
• The Floral Somatoray has had a sprite pass with its appearance depending on its currently selected mode. The rays it fire also change color based on the selected mode.
• The Floral Somatoray makes a new sound when charging and firing at stuff.

SECBATON-GRIFFON updated:

2024.08.30

2024.08.29

CrazyAmphibian updated:

• Changed the RPD menu so that the options are always visible

DeityLink updated:

• Moody Lights have been added to all airlocks, firelocks, and blast doors.
• Fixed christmas lights now actually emitting any light. Their lit up sprite also now appears over darkness.
• Fixed snow tiles not regenerating snow like they should sometimes.
• Fixed each snow tile and christmas light having a duplicate on top of them.
• Reworked the way snow tiles hold snow so instead of losing snow from the duplicate tile you get even more! Each tile now has 10 snow which it regenerates by one every 30 seconds. You can grab 1 snow by hand, or 3 at a time by shovel. If the tile reaches 0 snow it disappears.
• Re-added the grabbed and digged snow tile sprites so you can easily see whether a tile is full of snow, or whether it's one shovel hit away from disappearing.

Eneocho updated:

• Cows will mutate their milk type when exposed to Phazon, unless they themselves can make Phazon, in which case they will not mutate their milk further.

SECBATON-GRIFFON updated:

• Coinboxes can now come out of vending machines again.
• Coinboxes and vendpacks now eject from crowbar destroying vending machines. Vendpacks still require inserted cardboard for this.
• Coinboxes can now be recycled for metal, under the electronics category.
• To compensate coinboxes being recyclable, and as to not be an infinite metal source, they are now required in their frame build step. A no access requirement version of them can be built as a metal stack recipe to aid this.
• Mech syringe guns now actually fire their syringes properly, making them finally useful for something other than getting fast research done.

2024.08.27

DeityLink updated:

• Apiaries no longer require you to build them into an hydroponics tray! Just click an adjacent floor while holding the kit.
• Apiaries have new sprites to commemorate their graduation from being tray-bound.
• Apiary kits now have in-hand icons.
• You no longer need a hatchet to harvest an apiary and can now do so bare-handed. Doing it this way no longer deconstructs the apiary so you can just calm the bees and let them return to it on their own. Hatchets (or alternatively crowbars) are still required to deconstruct them, which still also harvests them at the same time if they contain honey.
• Added sounds for building/deconstructing apiaries, and for pouring BeezEz in them.
• Apiaries and hives can burn down at long last.

jwhitak updated:

• Blacksmiths can now estimate the quality of their result before quenching their work by examining it.
• Smithing now has several new visual effects, including lighting, hot sparks, and visibly different unforged items.

2024.08.26

SECBATON-GRIFFON updated:

• The chameleon DNA gene now properly sets mob alpha back to normal when deactivated.
• Ghosts can now properly admin possess objects.
• Deleting an item now properly releases possession, if any.
• Posessing and releasing is now handled in one verb.
• The possession verb now releases the mob from the previous object it was possessing.

SonixApache updated:

• you can now pretend to be a silicon with voice changers as was intended

2024.08.25

DeityLink updated:

• The following changes have been done to the Rampant Brand Intelligence event. The original infected vending machine is now guaranteed to emit one of its custom slogans when it infects another vending machine, making players more likely to find it (and to hear those slogans at all like jesus christ the odds were ridiculously low). When the event ends, ALL infected machines stop throwing items instead of only 90 percent, and their speakers now return to their previous value instead of always being deactivated.

Eneocho updated:

• Lucky coins on a string have a second chance to be pulled out successfully, scaling with coin luck (not yours).
• Metastable Mutagen, a chem that selectively mutates the chemicals on plants, letting you semi-reliably remove (and add) chems via mutations. Made with equal parts Unstable Mutagen and Charcoal, with 5u Enzyme as a catalyst.
• Metatable Mutagen, a sibling to Metastable Mutagen that does the same, but it will also randomly transform into any of the other tables in the game if sprayed onto them. Made with equal parts Untable Mutagen (the botany version) and Charcoal, with 5u Enzyme as a catalyst.

SECBATON-GRIFFON updated:

• Lighting and object subsystems are now notably faster, with about 2.2 seconds shaved off server initialization overall on boxstation as an example

2024.08.24

DeityLink updated:

• Added Moody Lights to Hydroponic trays. This concerns not only their warning lights, but also the tray's own light toggle which lights up the plant quite nicely in the dark, and the plant's own bioluminescence. Plant may have custom moody light overlays, but ones that don't just glow all over if the bioluminescent gene is spliced into them.
• Alt-Click on Hydroponic trays now brings up a radial menu to quickly toggle its light, its lid, or set its label.
• Ctrl-Click (while anchored) lets you quickly toggle the lid, which was what Alt-Click previously did.
• Hydroponic trays now react to EMPs, having a chance to turn off their light and toggle their lid.
• Re-sprited the hydroponic tray lids. Added animations and sounds when you toggle them.
• Hydroponic tray sprites have been tweaked to display whether their internal light is on or off.
• The water level in hydroponic trays now visibly goes down.
• Some large plants now have an alternative appearance when constrained by a closed lid.
• If a plant exudes plasma or sleeping gas and its lid is closed, you can now see the gas through the lid.
• Improved the way plants grow visually so that more of their sprited stages may appear over the course of their growth.
• Hydroponic Trays now have a different sprite when they are un-anchored.
• Hydroponic Trays now have a visible vent when wrenched on top of a connector.
• Fixed some more the way Hydroponic Trays transfer gas when connected to a pipenet, or when their lid is open in general. You may now even use them as slow, one-way, passive vents.
• Newly built hydroponic trays now require you to fill them with water.
• You can now build plastic hydroponic trays! Easy to build, but just like with soil it won't provide you with any of the sensor data.
• Hydroponic Trays now consume a bit of power. Just a bit though.

2024.08.22

Eneocho updated:

• Expands the braindamage speech, adding a good amount of extra words and syllables that will be replaced with their dumb counterpart. Braindamaged players might also find themselves forgetting a word once in a while.
• Braindamaged players might find themselves gibbering incoherently if they try to speak too fast.
• Reduces the forced screaming chance and forced stutter chance when talking while braindamaged by 15 and 5 percent respectively, since those values felt better with this change.

SECBATON-GRIFFON updated:

• Catbeasts defiling rooms for threat generation should now happen as soon as they enter the room.

2024.08.21

CrazyAmphibian updated:

• The RPD will now display icons next to the names of pipes (you may have to re-open the menu to see them)

Dacendeth updated:

• Grues health regen has been lowered massively

DeityLink updated:

• Hydroponic trays containing dead weeds may now be overtaken by fresh new weeds.
• Plants exposed to radiation now have a chance to mutate. Young plants planted in the past minute have a high chance of mutating, while older ones have a very small chance of a minor gene mutation (if all your trays in Hydroponics have plants and a radiation storm occurs, expect 3-5 of them to display a small mutation). Furthermore, closing the tray's lid completely removes any chance of radiation-induced mutations.
• If a plant mutates to different species, it will no longer have an additional small mutation applied at the same time.

Eneocho updated:

• Typofix on the NO TIP beer keg description.
• Plant analyzers will now tell you the chems a plant is making when scanning a tray, as was intended.

SECBATON-GRIFFON updated:

• AIs can now track mobs as they move, rather than jumping to them every second.
• AI messages when they stop being able to follow a target are now more general, as cameras are not the only thing that stops tracking.

west3436 updated:

• Igniters will now start fires 100% of the time

2024.08.20

DeityLink updated:

• Fixed seconds display when checking your wristwatch.

Eneocho updated:

• Holomen no longer suffocate on low air conditions nor get intoxicated by atmospheric gases.
• You can now buy semi-randomized small town brewery beer kegs in cargo for 60 credits, these are safe.
• Hacking the cargo console lets you buy the off-brand beer kegs for 40 credits, which can contain dangerous chemicals, but also extra special chems.
• These beer kegs will be VERY contaminated (at least 1 dangerous chemical on average) if the station is on the DOES NOT TIP backdoor.
• Adds Iced Beer to the COLDDRINKS define (i had forgotten iced beer was a thing).
• The Does Not Tip backdoor uplink description also mentions it poisoning beers.

SECBATON-GRIFFON updated:

• The mounted sleepers and jail cells on mechs no longer print the object types to the occupant when they run out of power.
• Ghost names no longer show up in the list of things ejected from a cryo cell.

2024.08.19

DeityLink updated:

• Fixed gases leaving hydro trays despite their lid being closed.
• Fixed vines spawning outside hydro trays despite their lid being closed when they have just acquired the mutation.
• Dead plants can no longer mutate further.
• Fixed connected pipes not updating their atmosphere as they should when canisters and hydroponic trays connected to them change their content.
• You can now pour water and nutriments inside hydroponic trays even with their lid closed. The flavor text is slightly different to reflect you using its injection port. Likewise using a hoe or clippers on a tray now has flavor text specify that you use its access port.

2024.08.18

DeityLink updated:

• The old vaguely dandelion-looking weeds have had an art pass and now look slightly more like dandelions.
• Added dandelion seeds to the MegaSeed Servitor's contraband products.
• Dandelions may be harvested as soon as their yellow flowers have bloomed, but waiting further will allow the flowers to turn into pappus, which can be harvested themselves.
• Dandelion flowers can be ground for their yellow dye, or turned into leafy incense by using it on an incense oil container.
• Dandelion pappus can be used 3 times to spread their seeds onto nearby empty trays or soil.
• Dandelions both in trays or harvested as pappus will spread their seeds when exposed to air currents.
• Added in-hand icons for Dandelions, Sunflowers, Harebells, Novaflowers and Moonflowers.
• Pre-mapped tower-cap logs can now be properly have their seeds extracted.
• Flavor texts when plants mutate and whatnot should now properly account for the plant's designation being singular or plural.
• Dandelions can be mutate into Dandelions(?) which re-use the old weeds sprites.

2024.08.16

DeityLink updated:

• Hydro Tray lights now update immediately after pouring a reagent into it (reagents still get processed by the tray over time, but the lights anticipate how much the reagents currently held will change the tray's variables)
• Paint reagents are now slightly toxic to hydroponics plants, except flax oil which is slightly nutritious.
• Water and Holy Water now hydrate trays just as much
• Toxins in hydro tray and soil now become progressively more visible as it builds up, instead of suddenly becoming visible past a threshold.

Eneocho updated:

• All botany mutagens now take the same average time to tick and to get consumed (as fast as the previous fast chems).
• Phazon weapons and hammers (blacksmithing) will no longer delete themselves when used a bunch, and will instead teleport to a random tile within a radius around itself, scaling with quality, up to a radius of 13 tiles with legendary weapons.

SECBATON-GRIFFON updated:

• Lotto tickets with numbers from the random event are now more likely to be winners, as the highest ballcount is now 18 and not 32.

falcon2346 updated:

• Added the is_dexterous variable to mob.dmi that mimics most of the effects of methylin.

toomykins updated:

• nanopaste is now small instead of normal
• implants are now tiny instead of normal sized

west3436 updated:

• You can no longer grab "fire" out of a burning bookcase.
• Wooden tables and chairs will now burn twice as fast.
• Added a Fire Suppression preset to Air Alarms which replaces Oxygen and Plasma with Nitrogen in its area.
• Fixed Flatpack Fabricators not using parts shared via Bluespace Matter Bins.
• Added Silencing Spray which can be used to silence any mob/obj/machine which it's sprayed on.

2024.08.13

Eneocho updated:

• Changes the sharp, brunt, and quality modifiers for a couple materials:
• Gold brunt modifier goes from 0.5x to 0.9x, and quality modifier from 1.7x to 1.8x
• Silver brunt modifier goes from 0.7x to 0.2x, and sharpness modifier from 0.7x to 1.8x
• Mythril quality modifier goes from 1.5x to 3x, to account for it being so scarce and generally being outperformed by Phazon and Bananium.

2024.08.12

CrazyAmphibian updated:

• The lich hardsuit will now use the correct helmet

DeityLink updated:

• Fixed dust motes remaining forever on turfs that change type

SECBATON-GRIFFON updated:

• Lights have been added to HoS office on packed station.
• A missing cable has been added to packed station gateway room.
• The paper and nanopaper on packed station mechanics have been made easier to access, swapping the places of the bin and a locker in the room.

2024.08.10

DeityLink updated:

• Airflow is now visible, as dust motes can be seen flying around between zones when the pressure differential is high enough for there to be wind.

Eneocho updated:

• Vomit can be electrolized into equal parts sacid and nutriment, or made with equal parts sacid and nutriment, plus 5u Enzyme.

jwhitak updated:

• Adds wooden buckets! Two wood planks to craft.
• Friendly carp ranching will no longer result in hostile carp.
• Circular saws and variants can chop down trees.
• Fixes certain sounds from being heard from further away than intended.
• Tools/surgery tools without sounds will attempt to play other possibly related sounds before giving up.
• Wooden walls and girders now take time to chop down (5 seconds). Fireaxes are faster (1 second).
• You can now wet hides in a sink/groundwater, and air dry them slowly. Hot rooms still dry them faster.
• Wet leather now tells you if it's drying, and how much it has left to dry.
• Fixed wet leather deleting itself in your hands.

2024.08.09

Pancakemines updated:

• Surgery freezers now blink when containing brains with a player ghost inside them.
• Added new pulsing heart surgery box sprite.

SonixApache updated:

• Detective scanners can now be alt-clicked to switch to scan-only mode, which prevents it from being put into boxes/coats/etc. Do note that this also prevents the scanner from taking fingerprint cards.
• You can now use hand labelers on storage items like boxes and backpacks, among other things. If you notice something breaking with labelling, report it.

2024.08.07

Eneocho updated:

• Squash plants! Mutate a pumpkin to get your very own squash. They are not as efficient at making nutriment, but are filled with precious Squash (reagent).
• The Squash reagent/drug is a double edged performance enhancer that boosts your tackling abilities. If consumed by non dwarves, they'll suffer brute damage for 30s before turning into a dwarf (as long as Squash is still in their system). If they run out of squash, the recoil from growing back to normal size will break every bone in their body, unless their bones were reinforced with Degencalcium beforehand.
• The Squash drug can be manufactured by mixing equal parts Manly Dorf, Degenerate Calcium and Hyperzine.
• The Caber can now self recharge once per minute and has the proper sharpness flags when on its detonated state.
• Methamphetamine can be made stationside by enterprising chemists. Slower and way more expensive to make but overall better than hyperzine, and performance enhancing, too. It does make you tweak out at times, though. Made by mixing 1 part Albuterol, 3 parts Hydrogen, 1 part Chlorine and 5u Carbon (catalyst), then heating to 200°C, which makes 2 parts meth.

boy2mantwicethefam updated:

• A neo-ultra-capitalism mode Old Vendotron will no longer kill itself by summoning a lot of hostile creatures that it would proceed to go to combat with, and now the creatures it creates become part of the same faction as it.
• Fixed the Old Vendotron's plate attack so that it will no longer throw plates on its own tile. It will now properly throw them away.
• Slimes will now become ravenous in the presence of monkeys, causing them to become hungry and thus try to eat anything they can reach (including the monkeys), which also allows the slimes to feed far sooner on the monkeys than they otherwise would.
• Slimes can now store slightly more nutrition, meaning that they can develop into adult slimes and then split by eating two monkeys in a smaller form instead of having to eat a monkey in a smaller form and another monkey in a larger form.

hacker-on-steroids updated:

• ripley killdozer kit - adds tons of armor and allows you to put guns onto the ripley
• add killdozer kit to uplink (10tc)
• add killdozer kit to r&d (illegal 2)

2024.08.01

DeityLink updated:

• Painting over the new library carpets and wooden floors now looks as it should.
• Fixed soulblade that don't have a shade in them behaving weirdly when thrown at non-cultists.
• Fixed the Toggle Anonymity cult hood button failing to update your character's visible name when examined or hovered.
• Added keybinds for Soul Blade spells (courtesy of Yred). In regular mode, press Insert to Spin and End to Perforate. In Hotkey mode, press F to Spin and R to Perforate.
• Using click-drag to perform the Perforate spell as a Soul Blade no longer sends you always south if you click-drag from the Soul Blade's tile. (courtesy of Yred)

Eneocho updated:

• Juicy fruit will splash its reagents in an area.

boy2mantwicethefam updated:

• Fixed a year-old bug where the Staff of Swip-Swap couldn't be wielded. Now it can be wielded to empower the projectile, which allows it to go through windows.
• (Admins) Changing the "detachable_cell" variable for energy weapons will now also handle whether it will give the gun the respective "Detach Cell" verb or not.
• Fixed a bug where a person that has carp pheromones in their system would not stink up the place properly if someone nearby was dead, which would unpredictably cause the message to not reliably show up to other players in the area.

2024.07.31

DeityLink updated:

• Fixed Hologram Projectors nullspacing items worn or held by holograms when they die.
• Fixed Hologram Projector player transitions between pAI and Hologram (quickly swapping from one to the other should no longer cause any issues)
• Fixed the Hologram Projector's ray not properly tracking the hologram or its projector in most cases.
• pAI slotted inside a Hologram Projector can now re-spawn their hologram if it disappeared without requiring outside help, using a new button under the pAI Commands tab.

SECBATON-GRIFFON updated:

• Siberian chifir now shows up with its icon again.

boy2mantwicethefam updated:

• Added a wider amount of content to the Trader's "Yamtar" crate, containing unique items that can greatly aid in medical endeavors.
• The "Yamtar" crate is slightly less likely to have a suit sensing wand.
• DNA syringes that contain a single block will now have the block's number in their name.
• The Genetics' DNA Scanner's "transfer" function will now only irradiate as much as a DNA injector would, which is far less.

2024.07.29

13spacemen updated:

• Fat sprite limbs don't overlap any more

Dacendeth updated:

• You can now alt click playing cards to flip them

boy2mantwicethefam updated:

falcon2346 updated:

• Added new sprites.

west3436 updated:

• Fixed an incorrect typepath in update_icons.dm
• Tracking beacons are no longer flammable.

2024.07.25

Eneocho updated:

• Wizards can upgrade the Pitbull spell to summon Toadline Pitbulls for 20 spell points. Toadline Pitbulls move slightly slower than a regular pitbull, but have the advantage of being able to pass through airlocks and other mobs unimpeded (the airlock pass is NOT instantaneous, it takes a bit). They also do 1 more Brute damage on average compared to a regular Pitbull.
• Restores the Tracking Bacon dish that was commented out 12 years ago. They behave like regular tracking beacons, but can be eaten and can be cooked with 10u corn oil, 5u salt and a slab of meat.

boy2mantwicethefam updated:

• The ninja's energy blade is now slightly sharper.

2024.07.23

Eneocho updated:

• Fixes PCP not being added to the HYPERZINES define, thus not behaving like hyperzine for any interaction.
• Regular antimatter tanks can now be refueled at a decent rate by exposing them to radiation.
• Antimatter Decelerator tanks (the trader one) will refuel 25x faster than the regular tank and can hold 10x the fuel (10000).

boy2mantwicethefam updated:

• Fixed a bug where reviving at least twice with the phylactery would completely wipe out the lich's list of spells.
• Fixed a runtime caused by an attempt to find a spell's button in the spell menu when it didn't have any (such as the No Gun Allowed spell)
• A soulstone that is used to fuel a phylactery will now properly change to its inert icon. It will also no longer allow the user for a brief period of time to summon the shade it just used on the phylactery, which did nothing.
• Fixed a bug where certain elements for the No Gun Allowed, Bind Object and Magical Wardrobe spells were not being properly transferred due to a missing "user" variable.
• No Gun Allowed will now properly allow someone to fire a weapon again when removed.
• Fixed a bug where the wizard and wizard's apprentice scoreboards would show spells learned from spellbooks as being absorbed.
• Should fix an error with the wizard and wizard's apprentice scoreboard where spells would show up at least twice, and generally improved them a little.
• Adjusted the phylactery set's spawns so that the phylactery itself is more likely to appear above the necromancer clothes instead of under them.
• Removed unused code regarding monkeys being attacked with items, and the monkeys already take damage through other systems.
• Fixed a 7-year-old bug where slimes wouldn't do roughly 4 of the emotes they were meant to do once in a while because the emote system was checking to see if they were a monkey. They can now bounce, jiggle, light up for a bit and vibrate.
• Creatures and silicons that are attacked by burn-causing melee weapons such as the scrying orb will no longer be spammed with "Aargh it burns!" in every attack.
• Cleaned a section of the game's code where item attacks against slimes were defined. It should now be easier for future coders to read the piece of code where it used to be.
• Surrendering via a character that wasn't male nor female should no longer say "they surrender%s!", and will now properly say "they surrender!".
• Robots now have an unique message when surrendering.
• Fixed a critical bug with slimes so that critical hits will now affect how likely they are to be pushed away when hit.
• Fixed a 4-months-old bug where cyber horrors couldn't inject medical nanobots.
• The "Set Holiday" admin command will now show up to admins in their command panel.
• Fixed a 7-year-old bug where peg limbs couldn't be properly removed by less damaging weapons.
• Fixed a 7-year-old bug where non-sharp items with enough force did not have any chance of ripping off a limb as opposed to turning it into gibs. The check has now been fixed and now strong blunt melee weapons have a chance to rip off a broken limb instead of gibbing a broken limb.
• Removed unused code which concerned attacking with slimes in order to cause brain damage, which was unused for a variety of reasons including; regular slimes cannot be picked up, the code only works with items, and it only worked against non-carbon mobs which, as far as I know, are not affected by brain damage.
• Emotes that change their wording based on the user's gender will now properly affect non-humans such as monkeys.
• Removed an unused proc that was getting called by the code regarding monkeys being attacked with items.

• Internal wounds will no longer be considered sources of damage to determine limb damage.
• Attempted a fix where humans transformed into other humans through means such as the Staff of Change will now properly transfer their damage over instead of being completely healed.
• Grues will now strip the flesh off of the bones of humans they kill instead of gibbing them, unless they are races with no blood such as plasmamen. They can chomp them again to gib them.
