The following are the various ways a disease can spread, keep this in mind at all times:
* Airborne - The most dangerous and quick spreading, if you are anywhere within the breathing area of the infected crew member, you have a chance to be infected unless you use internals.  
 
* Touch - Requires you to touch, have been touched, or be extremely close to the source of the infection. Hugging someone or switching places with someone has a chance to spread the infection. The infection will be spread by the skin and bodily fluids of an infected person, but will not survive long in the air.
*Airborne - The most dangerous and quick spreading, if you are anywhere within the breathing area of the infected crew member, you have a chance to be infected unless you use internals.
* Fluid - Lets you infect someone by splashing them with the virus culture or using smoke. Works even if they have internals on. Does not work through hardsuits.

* Blood - The infection will only be spread by ingesting infected blood.
*Fluid - Lets you infect someone by splashing them with the virus culture or using smoke. Works even if they have internals on. Does not work through hardsuits.
* Special - The disease is not normally contagious and the affected crewman has been infected by a non-human vector source. You can work with the infected without risk yourself unless they expose you to the same vector source that infected them.

Any higher level infection method can infect using any lower level methods. For example, an airborne virus can spread to people with internals on by hugging them.

Being a traitor virologist opens you up to a whole variety of cruel and interesting ways to create chaos on the station. Here's some tips to allow you to spread your worst creations.

* Here is where statistics become important: you need Resistance to avoid the cure being salt, you want Transmittability so your virus can spread, Stage Speed so it acts before the victim is cured, and Stealth to avoid it being noticed too quickly. You won't have them all on a single virus, so choose the direction you want to go with.

** A high resistance will make the cure so rare that it won't realistically be available to everyone. Beware of vaccines, though.

** A high stage speed will cause your virus to progress at extreme speed, giving targets less warning before acting.

** A high transmittability will allow you disease to spread itself without your help; it will also make it so you need more clothing to protect from infection.

* While it might seem a good idea to put many harmful symptoms on a virus, its stats will be lowered to the point it won't act before it is cured. Stick to one or two harmful symptoms, and add neutral ones to buff its statistics.

* All symptoms give out messages to the infected before they reach the stage where they activate. People will be aware of what is hindering/killing them. Consider investing in stealth to prevent this.

* Going around outside of virology with a biosuit will alert people that you don't trust your own virus: you might want to infect yourself with a harmless resistant virus, so people can see that you're infected as well, while you'll be immune.

* Remember that live and walking infected spread more than corpses. Consider making a disease that hinders many instead of one that kills a few. Although dead people can't work on a cure.

Virology has been reworked to add threshold bonuses to symptoms. If the specified statistic goes over the threshold, the symptom will gain the relative bonus.

=== Neutering ===
===Neutering===
You can now neuter symptoms, making them inactive, but still able to affect statistics. Use them to empower positive viruses without killing your patients. Adding formaldehyde (now in the smartfridge) will neuter a random symptom.

=== Stealth ===
===Stealth===
Stealth no longer hides viruses from the Pandemic, but it will hide many early warning of infection instead.

Maximum amount of symptoms can now be 6. Every time a symptom is added the cap randomly changes between 4 and 6. As there is a chance for a symptom to be removed at the same time 6 symptoms is rare.
