Beepspeech mutation/trait (Beep boop?) - Comrade f191 - 07-21-2019

A gimmick mutation/trait/accent/whatever that works kinda like Buttspeech...

Add a harmless(?) mutation that simply replaces random words with beeps and boops while also making you randomly say 'beep boop beep' every so often, like when you've been infected with Robotic transformation.


I tried my hand at coding it, but only got so far, here's what actually worked that I made.
Code:
/datum/bioEffect/speech/beepboopbeep
name = "Frontal Gyrus Alteration Type-BE"
desc = "The language centre of the subject's brain seems to be covered in small circuits."
id = "accent_beep"
effectType = effectTypeDisability
msgGain = "You can hear a quiet beeping noise..."
msgLose = "The beeping noise seems to fall silent."

If this isn't something you can get via mutation or trait, perhaps you could get it from the Debris Field, maybe a hacked/emaged Robotics Fabricator or perhaps even being infected with Robotic Transformation and not curing it within a set space of time...
