[Nerf] Monkey fueled blob rampages - Grayshift - 06-01-2016
https://github.com/goonstation/goonstation-2016/compare/goonstation-2016-byond510...Grayshift:monkeyNerf?expand=1
This is a simple check that reduces the amount of evopoints a blob gains from eating monkeys from 4 to 1. Blobs that gets to start eating an abandoned genetics pen or emptied out Val-U-Chimp before discovery will no longer be nearly unstoppable from the start. Latejoin blobs are the most likely to get those and they already benefit from a station pre-wracked by antags.
Easy alternatives:
If this nerf is not severe enough, reduce gained evopoints from monkeys to 0, but make them provide a bounty of biopoints instead.
If it's too severe, keep the evopoints at one but also throw in the biopoint bonus.

Absorbing a cluwne should give you 10 evo points.

No.

absorbing a cluwne should hurt the blob. or the blob should be instinctively repulsed and unable to absorb it

anti-blob cluwne walls
turn the monkeys into cluwnes, kill them, put them around the nucleus, win

This seems very knee-jerky.

This has been a long standing issue with blobs that's basically an exploit but has never been fixed.

I've started many times near the monkey pen and thought it was kinda an easy mode, seems a good compromise.

Please
