Rework K'ois

[Ian The Corgi]

This was originally meant to be included in the new vaurca food suggestion, but i decided the difference was large enough to make a different suggestion

"Security, that damn vaurca drone turned the chapel into a kois farm"

"Set batons to harm, men"

K'ois are a fun plant, they are accessible from roundstart and grow anywhere that isn't space, but the fun of k'ois is often a nuisance to the racists humans, I propose that we make K'ois less robust:

- Still grow nearly everywhere

- Act like the trees and such from hydroponics that can be re-harvested.

- Require food to grow (more on this later)

- Produce only 2 K'ois fruits when harvested

- Die naturally after 30 minutes

- Can be removed with hoe

- K'ois are worth less nutrition

- Plant-B-Gone cuts a clean hole through k'ois

- Vines and other spessplants cannot go through K'ois.

Food System:

- You can feed k'ois any food with animal protein in it.

- Feed k'ois by clicking on them with the item (or grab) in your active hand, it will say "You put the Maps Salty Ham amongst the k'ois' roots"

- Mice feed k'ois, but nymphs do not.

- Every time a grown K'ois recieves a sacrafice meal, it will bear fruit, which can be harvested

- You can FEED ME SEYMOUR feed the K'ois people, the person will recieve genetic damage, and it can be clearly seen that they are trapped in the k'ois, every 5 seconds the person recieves 1 genetic damage, and the plant LAUNCHES a k'ois fruit across the room, if the person resists, they escape instantly, but cannot do this if they have fallen over or blacked out. If the k'ois is given a corpse, vaurca, human, catbeast, ligger or warbler but NOT IPC or Diona it will gib that corpse, flinging gibs across the room, and 20 k'ois, this is called being a shitter unless A) a vaurca was fed B) You are a ganker of the ganks

Why Choose This System:

- Gives bound workers a job to do

- Reduces K'ois spam without invoking the mods and badmins.

- Finds a use for those useless vaurca corpses

- Gives mice another reason to be scared of the vaurca

- New method of suicide for the mentally feeble.

Why can you not just continue to punish people that abuse the mechanics instead?

[Ian The Corgi]

Because this thread isnt ALL about that, its a bonus. The main reason is to have some new mechanics that make farming K'ois a business that the bound can rely on
