Define this "something different".

The structures and the like are the same, but instead of the old acid-blooded dong monsters we all know and love they are blood-drinking leech creatures burrowing into the host.

...so, I guess, pretty much evil Diona larvae.

Nevermind, according to the host it's just boring Master Controller quirks

But!
BUT XENOS

It sounds like borers but a xeno mode. Hopefully it can be left out of Urist like most of Bay's renaming shenanigans?

I've actually been thinking that strategically fucking with some vars might be an interesting event.

I'm actually coding reaction efficiency and groundwork for groundwork for thermodynamics in chemistry, so if you'd have an event which sets efficiencies above or below 100% (and disables a sanity check I put in, because DUH) you could get chems that produce more reagents than they should, or start going in the opposite direction than they are supposed to, consuming reagents of the products present and spawning more of the substrates.

I specifically disallowed that from happening, because it would fuck with the procs it uses right now, but with some rewriting, you could controllably have reality break in things like Cult late-game.

The question remains though.

Does this new alien mode remove gibbing if you get infected.

Always hated that about Xenos

[Aseaheru]

It makes you a larva when it gibbs you...

Actually, to prevent people from intentionally getting infected to be a Xeno, I think it'll rarely spawn you from your own body.

>leaving it out

>not taking it and keeping xenos for double the chance for glorious xeno rounds

bad

Yah, Steff put me right. Bay makes the oldest ghost the larva. Question is if it accounts for alien antag preference.

[Cheedows]

In my experience and admins know the one who observes the longest/oldest ghost is put into the xeno body. I've had plenty of unfortunate experiences where this happened.

I missed the poll, but having the cyborg rechargers buildable would be nice.  If it's not already suggested.
Ignore this, it's already implemented into Bay, but we haven't pulled it yet.

[Aseaheru]

I thought that those where buildable, atleast on one codebase.

They actually are, both on /TG/ and on Bay.
Scroll down a bit, its between SUPERPACMAN and Coolers

-edit-

Bay seems to have both a "Cyborg Recharging Station" and a "Borg Recharger". Of the two, the borg recharger costs more resourses, and the wiki says nothing about values of one over the other.

[Vakothu]

Hmm, we must have not pulled that yet, I checked in our newest version, and they're still unable to be constructed or deconstructed.

Yeah, we didn't.

In unrelated news, there seems to be a mobilization on Bay towards making Chem better without using Goonchem. For my part, I've figured out how to make chem reactions take time.
