I really don't like slipping on blood but..
Straight from the horses mouth; Slipping on blood is WIP and eventually it work in such a way that blood will dry and you will no longer be slipping literally every second to medbay because one person got badly cut.
This leads to a question of implementation, and thus, a suggestion:
When a pool of blood drys, does the sprite remain or will it be gone similar to how water goes?
My suggestion would be somewhere in-between. When blood drys, it should reduce (as in, a large pool of blood will become a medium one, medium to small and small to nothing), and become a darker shade of red. If not both, then implement the latter. It will gain a new description "this blood has been here for some time" or something similar.
Why? This would actually be brilliant for detective work. Fresh blood stains would mean a confrontation happened quite recently and would allow any security personnel to know if shit is going down and to be on their guard. Old blood stains and moldy corpses and cockroaches all over adds to a sinister ambiance.
