=== Husk === | |||
Sometimes, people are dropped off in Medbay with charred, grey skin and a lack of definable features. This means that they are a husk. They either died through extreme temperature, or through a changeling sucking out all their valuable DNA: evidenced by being both a husk and also resembling a "crushed, empty juice pouch" on examine. | |||
Luckily, with modern medicine: We can rebuild them. For victims of extreme temperature (hot or cold) they can be unhusked and either cloned or defibbed with the use of [[Guide to Chemistry#Synthflesh|Synthflesh]]. Heal their burn damage to under 50, spray them with Synthflesh (from chemistry or medbay storage) and if they have 100u of Synthflesh in them, they will simply stop being a husk, and you can continue on normally with revival. | |||
A harder (and only option for victims of changeling husks) is the researched surgery [[Surgery#DNA%20recovery|DNA recovery]]. Careful, as this requires [[Guide to Chemistry#Rezadone|Rezadone]], which might be hard to come by. [[Cyborg#Medical|Upgraded Medical Cyborgs]] have Hyposprays with Rezadone in them. Once this surgery is completed, they can then be cloned normally. | |||
If you try to de-brain a changeling victim husk corpse and put their brain into an [[Research items#Man-Machine%20Interface|MMI]], it '''WILL''' fail and be unresponsive! Do not do this! You are not being clever nor helpful, it will never work, and that's the point! Do it the right way! | |||

Giving too much of some chemicals or drugs can cause an overdose. This means that you aren't doing your job correctly and you may even kill the patient if you don't stop doing it! | Giving too much of some chemicals or drugs can cause an overdose.
