[Xeno] Eggs V2

Post by Swagile » 10 Feb 2017, 19:15

Bug Description: When you upgrade as a Hunter, you can open eggs, even though hunters cannot do so when they are Young. I assume this is the same for other upgraded Caste's that are not supposed to open eggs.


Steps to reproduce:
1. Upgrade as Hunter (haven't tested other castes).
2. Click on egg.
3. Watch as it opens up and you retrieve a child despite being a Hunter.

Were you able to actually pick up the hugger?

No, as im having technical difficulties with Byond at the moment.

Even so, this opens up the venue of griefing eggs by opening it up and unless mods watch eggs themselves, they can't catch people who use this method of griefing the xenos, especially with the hugger combat test right now.

EDIT: Fixed my BYOND. Tested it and you can't pick up huggers as a upgraded tier.

There is already a sanity check in place, but I see that it may still be possible to grief. I have some ideas in mind on how to further limit it. Resolved for now, thanks.
