RESEARCH & MEDICAL STAFF

Geneticist

Access: Medbay, Morgue, Genetics, Research Division
Additional Access: Chemistry, Xenobiology, Robotics, Tech Storage, Mineral Storage
Difficulty: Medium
Supervisors: Chief Medical Officer
Duties: Clone people, unlock mutations and print injectors for the Clown to steal
Guides: Guide to genetics, Guide to medicine
Quote: Well maybe if the Captain had asked before plunging that syringe into his artery he wouldn't be a monkey now.

You start in the Genetics Lab and get to play God. This is a very technical class, but there are a few simple things people can do that are still learning the ins and out of genetics. The main thing you're meant for: find super powers, fix disabilities, and cloning dead people.

Bare minimum requirements: Clone the corpses dropped off at your doorstep. Don't hand out Hulk

The genetics lab is located in Medbay. It is separated into two sections: Genetic Cloning and Genetic Research

Genetic Cloning

This is one half of your job. Make sure you know how to do it.

How to Clone people

Put a dead, unhusked corpse in the DNA scanner
Use the cloning console and press "Start Scan"
Once the scan has completed, press "View Records," select the person you need to clone, and press "Clone"
(Optional) Leave the gear from the corpse in front of the cloning pod and put the corpse in the Morgue

Early Ejection

Early Ejection is what happens if ~~you forget~~ someone forgets to keep the cloning pod filled up with Synthflesh. Early Ejection is often times detrimental, requiring the person to be cloned again. The effects of Early Ejection include the person coming out:

Without a heart
Without limbs
With blindness/deafness/muteness
With Tourettes
With severe brain damage
With severe radiation poisoning
With severe cellular damage

Not worth it.

Genetic Backup

Being able to clone the Miners and Space Explorers when they inevitably die is nice, even more so if you don't have to go out to Lavaland or Space to retrieve the corpse. To do this, just bug the Miners and Space Explorers to get into the DNA scanner while they're still alive, scan them, then, when they die, use the cloning console and clone them as usual, if they are still alive, you will not be able to clone them.

Genetic Research

Any geneticist worth their salt knows that manipulating the DNA of living things is their ball game.

See the Guide to Genetics when you're ready for the real SCIENCE.

Tips

If someone has a cavity implanted item, you can instantly remove it by monkeying them.
You can put disks into the cloning computer to save the UI and UE of people scanned.
While unstable mutagen and radiation will cause primarily negative mutations to manifest, having them manifest will prevent you from wasting time slowly unlocking them via the console.
It can be empirically shown that, for an unupgraded machine, a pulse duration of 4 seconds is the most efficient trade-off of time and success rate

-==Genetic Cloning==
-This is one half of your job. Make sure you know how do it (and actually fucking do it).
-===[[File:Clonebook.png]] Cloning, A How To===
-Someone has died? Not to worry, SCIENCE is here!
-# Grab a body.
-# Throw body into the DNA Scanner (next to Cloning Console).
-# Click ''Scan''. If there is no brain activity, wait a moment (half a minute or so) and try again (ghost needs to return to its body). If this fails again, skip to step 9.
-# Go into ''Medical Records''.
-# Hit ''Clone''.
-# If you don't have Clean Structural Enzymes (Clean SEs) yet, pop body out of DNA Scanner. If you do, skip the next step.
-## Take old body (and not the clone), throw into DNA Scanner next to monkey pen.
-## Go into the ''Transfer Buffer'' and ''Save'' their SE formula to a blank spot.
-# Make a clean SE injector from the DNA Scanner Access Console and inject them with a clean SE injector just to be safe that they don't get any seizures later on.
-# Give them their stuff back and throw them out of your lab and into a cryotube.
-# You now have a dead body to play with, turn into a monkey, throw into the morgue, or just give to the chef (or do a combination thereof).
-'''ASK THE [[CMO]] TO CHECK THE CREW MONITOR REGULARLY SO YOU HAVE PEOPLE TO CLONE.'''

 ===Early Ejection===
-If you're feeling fancy and have a fuckton of bodies which need cloning, you can force an early ejection of the cloning pod by unlocking the pod with your ID and using the Eject Pod command from the right-click menu. The clone must be at least 40% done before the pod will allow you to eject it this way. The cloning pod will also eject its current unfinished clone if the room's equipment loses power. If you get a cooperative [[Engineer]] to unlock the APC for you, you can switch the power off and on to eject the clone.
+Early Ejection is what happens if <s>you forget</s> someone forgets to keep the cloning pod filled up with [[Synthflesh]]. Early Ejection is often times detrimental, requiring the person to be cloned again. The effects of Early Ejection include the person coming out:
+* Without a heart
-You need to finish the cloning process over in Cryogenics, so make sure the Cryochambers are loaded with a [[Clonexadone]]-[[Cryoxadone]] mixture. Have some [[Alkysine]] at hand to cure their massive brain damage, too. This is known as 'Hypercloning', and it speeds up the process of cloning significantly, frees up the cloning machine for another patient, gives cryogenics and bored medical doctors something to do, and it's not inconvenient because they're naked coming out of the pod anyway.
+* Without limbs
+* With blindness/deafness/muteness
+* With Tourettes
+* With severe brain damage
+* With severe radiation poisoning
+* With severe cellular damage
+Not worth it.
 ===Genetic Backup===
-You can take a scan off of someone while they're alive and create a genetic backup ready to be cloned in case they die. This is useful to those of especially high risk of an irretrievable death like the chief engineer or captain.
+Being able to clone the [[Shaft Miner|Miners]] and Space Explorers when they inevitably die is nice, even more so if you don't have to go out to [[Lavaland]] or [[Space]] to retrieve the corpse. To do this, just bug the [[Miners]] and Space Explorers to get into the DNA scanner while they're still alive, scan them, then, when they die, use the cloning console and clone them as usual, if they are still alive, you will not be able to clone them.
-# Bug people to get scanned at genetics while they're still alive.
+==[[File:Ling absorb hud.png]] [[Guide to genetics|Genetic Research]]==
-# Scan them.
-# Press the "clone" button under their records when they die.
-==Genetic Research==
 Any geneticist worth their salt knows that manipulating the DNA of living things is their ball game.
 See the [[Guide to genetics|Guide to Genetics]] when you're ready for the real SCIENCE.
+==Tips==
-Other, more subtle, modifications may be possible. As always, experimentation is encouraged!
+* If someone has a cavity implanted item, you can instantly remove it by monkeying them.
+* You can put disks into the cloning computer to save the UI and UE of people scanned.
+* While unstable mutagen and radiation will cause primarily negative mutations to manifest, having them manifest will prevent you from wasting time slowly unlocking them via the console.
-==WHAT HAS SCIENCE DONE?!==
+* It can be empirically shown that, for an unupgraded machine, a pulse duration of 4 seconds is the most efficient trade-off of time and success rate<br />
-As a [[traitor]], you are pretty much able to do anything you want to dead people in your lab, granted you don't have a [[Roboticist|coworker]] or [[Head of Security|baby sitter]]. After sticking about for a few moments, any [[security]] forces usually vanish from the room of medium priority targets, like the [[Research Director|RD]] or [[Chief Engineer|CE]]. At this time, you can then loot their items and access, or even their appearance! You can easily replace people, just be sure to get rid of the original and wear the right clothes! Perhaps it will help you in the long run.
-'''DO NOT USE MONKEY SE'S ON THE OTHER CREW MEMBERS IF YOU ARE NOT A [[traitor|TRAITOR]]. THIS WILL GET YOU BANNED.'''
