+--- Thread: Minor Gnesis replication seems to be broken (/showthread.php?tid=12557)
Gnesis replication seems to be broken - moonlol - 07-11-2019
Gnesis attempts to replicate in a person but continues to decay regardless
What seems to be happening is gnesis is replicating but does not detect that it's replicating and deletes itself
This also occurs in monkeys
For some reason i cant attach the .mp4 file i made showing this bug so I've uploaded it to YouTube
a video showing the bug

Also if you buy the fluid cache from the vendor the contents dissipate in a few seconds. That doesn't seem intended.

upon further investigation i've concluded that gnesis does in fact replicate if you have other chems in you
So what i think is happening is
take for example you have gnesis in you and nothing else
1. gnesis replicates using your blood
since people count as containers, gnesis's code checks if there's other reagents in the container
2. since blood is separate from reagents in a person gnesis thinks there's no other reagents
3. gnesis deletes itself
4. net loss of gnesis
also if you attempt to keep your gnesis up you'll most likely die of blood loss before gibbing(edit: its possible although you need to spam feed yourself)
before the flock burger nerf (and presumably gnesis decay) you could eat a burger and get gibbed even when not at max health with out external help
(by external help i mean things like iron,filgrastism,iv drips etc.)
