[@leeverguy]

The basics are really easy to learn. Feed slime twice, wait for it to grow, feed it twice again. Wait for it to split, partition any slimes you want off into other cells and put the others in the freezer room so they die. Repeat, and follow the chart to know which slimes mutate into which type of slime. Always keep yellow slimes handy since they're simple to obtain and everyone wants one. Then when you get a hang of that and the mutation tree/effects, move onto analyzing slimes and picking the ones with the right stats for the job- ei. make sure to keep the slimes you want on low mutation chances, and use the ones with high mutation to climb the ladder towards what you want. Then start using chemicals to alter those chances. Then you start getting into optimization. You wrench the slime grinder so that it's right next to your chair, make a windowed hole in the station next to the grinder so slimes that die in there automatically get sucked in, start seeing how extracts work... Overall it's an incredibly chill job with a few responsibilities (seriously, make yellow slime cores and everyone will love you) that you can easily zone out and listen to a podcast to. And when the cultists go loud, unleash your horde of sapient, loyal chaos carp and xenomorphs on those who dare interrupt your work. Granted this is all based on my experience from about a year ago. Haven't played much tgcode so I couldn't tell how they work now.

[@leeverguy]

Oh right, forgot to mention! Always keep grey slimes handy! I like to keep two pens with low mutation grays until I absolutely need the space, since gray extracts provide monke and you need monke to feed slimes.

I remember a round a few months ago in /tg/ sybil, or was it bagil? anyway, i was the captain and there was one scientist that was a ling too, he starts going on a rampage, we manage to kill him and gib him, 2 minutes later hes back at it again, thats when i noticed he was a slimepeople, i gathered security and started raiding all of the deparments to find all of the bodies, during all that we killed him like 5 times and i ended up going to xenobio alone, managed to kill 3 bodies myself between melee and ranged combat , but by the end of it i was extremely injured, i was entering xenobio and he jumped me from a locker and killed me, he still had like 4 to 7 bodies left in maint

[@Zorro9129]

Oof, imagine if he used the teleporter like here. No one could look off-station in time (though you are the captain and you could order someone to look for the source, maybe successfully).

[@MrRavellon]

An interesting thing to know. If you transplant a brain into one of the spare bodies and revive it the person in that body will share the spare body pool. As well as see where those other bodies are in his "jump to body" menu. Then you can leave one naked body in isolation chamber and hunt down all the spares.

You god damn genius. Fucking loved it, keep that good shit coming.

[@Apotheosis-]

pro tip for this strat you can use atmos holofan projectors to block off an area on the station, store one split body in there while you do stuff swaping back to it to split every now and then, leave all the other bodies in there and split them too so exponential replication.

[@MutinyEvo]

[@XiaoYueMao]

i did something similar once, not as effective as this, but as ling i stored backup bodies in various places, however this was long ago, when slimes had to constantly eat or they will starve quite literally to death, its been changed at some point so slime people dont go below like 520 jelly from starvation so you cant die, but yeah, because of that back then, i couldnt just have a body making bodies, it had to constantly eat to keep growing

You were clearly the end of a _lot_ of things. 2:44 / 4:45 / 6:41 What really gets me is the dramatic music...juxtaposed over a highly pixelated game with few animations where the characters float around making "whack" noises. There's something almost surreal about it. Comedic, sort of. 5:35 holy fuck I'm dying of laughter 6:31 / 8:46 / 9:11 How did you match the quotes so well? I think 11:07 is the best, though, given the Changeling is basically a Thing-esque shapeshifter. I can imagine the Changeling quoting the Ancestor word-for-word, complete with the tone of the original voice actor, as it attacks the crew. Like it's lecturing or mocking them or something, or it's behaving like SCP-2657, and trying to lure in prey - it doesn't know what the words mean, but it _does_ know they elicit an emotional reaction (7:00), and that gives it an opening.

you could revisit this as a traitor too, as a miner who has lucked out with dragons blood transformation. only after you get it should you attempt to slime change. but you can try to use pride in mining for it also. and with tc for a holo, you can get the ranged one for 2 benefits. it can trigger snare your hidden body to get a headsup if someone finds it. and its able to go past normal holo's tether limit. it can infact do z level travel to add to the chaos. just make sure you got a form of passive healing to let the spirit go ham. the staff of healing is very viable, yea it makes you a pacifist. but that doesn't affect the dragon form you can use. just dont transform into a dragon with your main body if it has the staff active, it will dust you if you try.
