Genetics Nerf; Butchers Space Adaption Into a Two Gene Combo (Plus a New Gene!) #91
Conversation

Why are we even keeping space adaptation if cold resistance + vacuum resistance does the same thing? Also, cold resistance and vacuum resistance should have their instability values swapped. You encounter cold a lot more than vacuum and its generally more deadly (especially to them lizerds and slimeys). I'd recommend changing it though so that cold resistance is 20 and vacuum is 10, unless you want to up the instability cost. Also this really isnt a nerf especially since heat resistance is a thing now. If anything, its a buff. |
Should we just bump both temps to 15-20 with vacuum 25-30? |

I'm fine with it being split, every mutation balances genetics slightly more For number references: Lizards have a 1.5x cold modifier and 0.67 heat modifier. |

There was a problem hiding this comment.
when melbert reviews the same file twice
sus
There was a problem hiding this comment.
i didn't review the same file twice
i reviewed heat adaptation to say "you got it backwards" and cold adaptation to say "you copypasted wrong"

I'm gonna figure out the halo bullshit later, probably gonna do a hack fix but its whatever. |
I really fucking hate genetics as it stands, and all of science for that matter, so this is my band-aid """fix""" to nerfing it.
Space adaption is NO LONGER a printable mutation, instead its a combo of two new genes.
FRIGID IMMUNITY
Cold resistance. 10 instability.
You will take x2 more heat related damage.
SWEALTERING IMMUNITY
Heat resistance. 10 instability.
You will now take x2 more cold related damage.
VACUUM ADAPTATION
Vacuum resistance. 30 instability.
You will now take x2.5 more oxy loss related damage (non suffocation related).
You will now have a x2.25 pain modifier.
Vacuum Adaptation + Frigid Immunity = Space adaptation.
A SMALL THING TO NOTE:
For some reason the "halo" isn't appearing when you combo these genes, will look into it sometime.
