===General Tips===
===General Tips===


* Toxic Filter + Toxic Compensation = Regeneration. They are also the only positive symptoms that can stack their effects. Add Self-Respiration and a virus can bring someone back from crit.
* If you happen to run out of plasma, chemistry usually has a few extra bars you can ask for.

* Sugar can be hard to find, but you can use Saline-Glucose from any NanoVend Plus for Sucrine Agar.

* Wearing protective clothing is not necessary during virology research, but you should wear it in event of an outbreak or while experimenting on monkeys.

* If you're dealing with a virus too stealthy to analyze, you can use a virus with the Anti-Bodies Metabolism symptom to cure it.
* If you're dealing with a virus too stealthy to analyze, you can try making a very infective virus to override it.
* Have in mind the disease you want to make before you start searching for symptoms: knowing the level of the symptom you're looking for may save you time and materials.

* While it's possible, you should refrain from using only plasma to get the symptoms you need, as it can run out very quickly, and without it you can only beg mining for more plasma bars.

* The only statistic you want when making a buffing virus is Stage Speed, as it improves a few symptoms. Resistance is useless as nobody'd want to cure it, transmittability is either undesired or taken care of by Sneezing, and Stealth is annoying, as it can make your virus hard to replicate through the Pandemic and to spot with MedHUDs.

* Viruses with only positive symptoms won't show up on the medical HUD. They will still show up on the scanners and on the Pandemic.

* 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.

* Stacking viruses will not only allow more symptoms, but will make your targets immune to eventual ABM viruses.

* 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 an ABM/cough virus, so people can see that you're infected as well, while you'll be immune. Or simply any three harmless viruses.

* 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.

* A syringe gun filled with infected blood is a good way to spread viruses if you can't trick the crew.
