Mildly Mutated changes

[Lefinch]

With plasmalung you at least start with a tank, and its trivial to tide another tank.

If you spawn with radioactive and you're on a round with no geneticists or new geneticists, its a death sentence from the start of the round. Normal medbay staff will at best be able to keep him stable, and then pray that theres a HoP, Captain, or Medical Director (quite possible in classic during low pop) because otherwise they'll be in medbay the whole round.

I guess there is a sort of analogue to this, rolling anti-histamine with the anti-allergy trait, but I don't think thats a particularly fun trait interaction either.

I mean, if it was literally every round I'd agree like plasma lung. But it's not going to be every round, one reason people would take this, and I would guess the main reason is that a lot of the time it is NOT a bad one, a lot of the time it is a rather good one, but the key point is that unlike plasma lung which is going to be a thing every round its taken this isn't. 

When it is that, it is not going to be every round where there is no genetics department, no medbay department, no AI who isn't capable of helping. I would guess that a lot of the time this will NOT happen.

Then as the backstop, there's borging cloning, sometimes there may not be doctors or robotics either (especially as we're assuming this is the case for the above). At this point I concede you are in a spot of bother.

So in a round where you not only got a life-threatening mutation, also nobody who can help with it, also nobody who can even clone or borg you at this point I, and I admit this is a personal philosophy: Would frankly see this is as a hilarious hint that I was simply not supposed to survive this round. That is just my view and not to dismiss that other people might see this as frustrating.
