Stop cloning from stealing alien babies

Post by Ordukai » 08 Jun 2015, 08:13

Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary):If someone pushes the "Clone" button while a player is playing as an alien larva, the player is removed from the larva (As if it were a dead body) and placed in a new human body in the cloner. This isn't usually a problem, since most people don't get "back ups" in the dna modifier, but when it happens it's a bit of a hassle to deal with.

Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole):Aliens won't have their children stolen and returned to the marines.

Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc):

Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it):Make a rule about cloning? Or some fancy coding (I know you're getting ready for alpha, perhaps keep this in mind?)
TLDR: Go back and read it. I spent time writing that, ya know.

We can clone aliens into humans but not Ian into a human? This is discrimination, +1

This. Is why eating corpses is a priority for me.

Spoilers: Lagspikes on the server, are caused by eating corpses with backpacks. So... avoid that.

Does eating people heal aliens?
