* Makes oculine taste slightly better (#79919) ## About The Pull Request Changes oculine's taste from 'dull toxin' to 'earthy bitterness'. Probably deserves the no GBP tag. ## Why It's Good For The Game Oculine is a benign/helpful chem that naturally occurs in carrots. This means it's in all carrot based food the chef cooks, and if the carrots cross pollinate with another plant it's in those too. This is currently a problem, because it means the chef's carrot sticks taste like poison and this tends to freak out new players who don't know that's just what oculine tastes like. Oculine has no negative effects besides potentially triggering a medical allergy quirk, it can't even be overdosed. So if you see a worrying "you taste dull toxin" message, there's actually no reason to be concerned. Still, I see players who are *convinced* the chef is poisoning their carrot cakes fairly regularly. This should cut down on wasted multiver and lynched chefs. I changed it to "earthy bitterness" because that's what some species of carrot taste like, and "bitterness" implies medicine. The paranoid can still assume they're being dosed with morphine or something, but they're not being misled into thinking this. For people chugging medicine bottles from chemistry, oculine stands out a little less too. ## Changelog :cl: qol: Oculine now tastes bitter, and not like toxin. /:cl: * Makes oculine taste slightly better --------- Co-authored-by: Da Cool Boss <[email protected]>

* Fixes Alien Hunter's Pounce Visuals (#81322) ## About The Pull Request Currently on live, when an alien hunter goes for a pounce, once the pounce is completed the hunter will rise quite a distance slowly from the floor as setting body_position_pixel_y_offset now is done with animation as opposed to being instant. This looked extremely stupid, so I went and fixed it. Initially, I was going to add some form of trait to cancel out the smoothing effect from a shifting y offset, until I looked at the sprite for alien pouncing and realized it was 96x96 for no reason. For reference, 96x96 is the size of Bubblegum's sprites. So, I just made the sprites 48x32, got rid of the unused sprites (sentinel and drone both had pounce sprites but neither ever had that ability iirc) and adjusted some of the pounce ability's internal offset stuff to compensate and it looks perfectly fine now. Somehow made the image file larger by 243 bytes according to Github but I guess it is what it is. ## Why It's Good For The Game The alien hunter ascending from 2 tiles below where it actually was whenever it pounced was incredibly jarring. This fixes the problem. ## Changelog :cl: fix: Alien Hunter's pounce ability no longer has any weird offset issues once the pounce is completed. /:cl: * Fixes Alien Hunter's Pounce Visuals --------- Co-authored-by: IndieanaJones <[email protected]>

Why It's Good For The Game
Oculine is a benign/helpful chem that naturally occurs in carrots. This means it's in all carrot based food the chef cooks, and if the carrots cross pollinate with another plant it's in those too.

Oculine has no negative effects besides potentially triggering a medical allergy quirk, it can't even be overdosed. So if you see a worrying "you taste dull toxin" message, there's actually no reason to be concerned. Still, I see players who are convinced the chef is poisoning their carrot cakes fairly regularly.
