I found one of my old biology tests that had a bonus question at the back asking the students to come up with a poem about the unit topic. I remember walking out of the testing room and my classmate asking me what the hell I was scribbling so furiously, and I told her I'd show her when we got the tests back. I thought I'd share it!
MUTATIONS!
One little change in a nucleotide;
Could harm your beautiful looks, so have pride!
If you are lucky, a silent mutation;
Won't change a thing (you may note with elation).
If, with misfortune, a deletion is had;
And damn all your luck -- this one is bad!
A frame shift could happen. Your proteins are wrong!
An amino that matters is suddenly gone!
The rest of the chain is disrupted as well.
The whole polypeptide has all gone to hell.
Perhaps just a missense will swap out a note;
Of this copious song that your genes know by rote.
Perhaps it won't matter so much in this case;
If the protein is similar with this new base.
How delightful it is we have mismatch repair!
But time is like nonsense muta -- [I'll stop there]
Hi all,
This is a limb counter for Mudlet. I've written this to be easy to install, easy to maintain, and easy for users to combine with existing systems.
Download and README: https://github.com/27theo/limb. Setup is described here.
This should run out of the box!
It comes with triggers to capture limb damage from the new lines ("you perceive that you have dealt"...) gated under a queue run message for anti-illusion*. It handles salves and the 3 minute decay in a straight-forward fashion.
Hits are stored in the limb namespace, under limb["Name"].hits.limb, (e.g. limb.Romaen.hits["right leg"] or limb["Romaen"].hits.head), in a percentage format.
The package comes with a primitive limb prompt - head, torso, left arm, right arm, left leg, right leg. You can change the order in the limb prompt script.
^ Result of a prompt trigger running cecho(limb.prompt())
I've not got an "isPrepped" function, but those of you who want to automate using one can likely make one yourselves! I opted out from this because I wanted to keep this elementary.
I'll keep the release and brief documentation updated on my GitHub.
If you find bugs, or I've missed out some crucial element of a limb counter (totally could have done this) please comment here or find me on discord or in game, with an OOC message.
Cheers,
Romaen.
