Contagious yawning - Grayshift - 10-06-2014

Make it so that *yawn has a good chance to trigger all people nearby to reflexively *yawn after a short delay. Secondary *yawns should probably not be as contagious unless we want the damn things to multiply like colds.

Why? No great reason, but potentially useful/funny to mimic/mask the effects of ketamine/other sedative sleepy pens.

This is neat, but keep secondary yawns as contagious, then go into the genetics monkey pen and yawn a few times.

Why not have secondary and tertiary yawns give diminishing returns, that would create a balance of having it stick around for a while, while also preventing it from circulating for an entire round. Maybe as an added feature, if someone spams yawn too much, give them a "You don't feel tired enough to yawn." I think this idea is silly, and, if implemented correctly, will be fun as well as not clogging chat.

Okay but if a yawn hits you five times you have to fall asleep.
