About the PR

Moves the Xeno compatibility implant from research to the uplink (20tc item locked to science)

And makes all xeno organs contra.

Why / Balance

Discourages use of gold extracts by non-antags to get xeno organs, which especially when it comes to things like the ovipositor, are very bad for crew to be using.

Technical details

Removes the genetics recipe pack as its now empty (comments it out and comments it out of everywhere that had it referenced), create a uplink listing for the xeno implant, and remove the xeno implant from research.

Requirements

Breaking changes

Removes the genetics recipe pack, but it's unlikely that its going to be used anyway.

Changelog
🆑

  • tweak: Xenomorph organs are now all major contra.
  • tweak: Changed the xeno compatibility implant from research to an uplink item for scientists.

Isn't apart of xeno's balancing the organs they give access to? I get the ovipositor being major contra but things like hive glands are intended to help crew stop the hive from reemerging by giving a way to eavesdrop on there hivemind
since if there's consistently a designated survivor xeno hives can be very sticky.
Also I recall about 1/3 of the xeno organs being non-functional due to bugs, it would suck to go though all that risk and pay 20 TC only to realize half the organs you wanted are non-functional.
Lastly if you really wanted to address powergaming organs why not do something about the more accessible, just as if not more powerful dragon lungs and demon heart.
