Ensign XenoFucker: Bioreactive Redux (Patreon)

Oooookay, this was a doozy, so I'll try for the short version.  Folks quite rightly criticized XenoFucker's transformations-via-bodily-fluids as broken because they were highly toxic and hard to come by for a transformation game.  So I yanked out the old system and put in a new system where TFs are non-toxic but temporary, essentially swelling up and then subsiding again.  I'm hoping that will lead to some fun identifying-and-collecting gameplay.  But in order to make it work... I had to rip out and replace or heavily modify a whole bunch of other systems, including the core body code, the autodoc, the game clock, the alerts system, and even the clothing and sex toys.  All of which is to say: I fear that this will look like a small update, but wow does it represent a huge amount of work and a seachange in how the game plays.

I'm sure it still needs some balancing work, too.  I've upped the impact of the bioreactive TFs, but I may not have increased them enough.  Let me know how it plays?

There's a handful of other little tweaks and fixes, too, detailed in the changelog.

With the new bioreactions scheme, I'm thinking that, going forward, you'll unlock permanent TFs by collecting the bodily fluids that do the temporary version of that TF  If this jizz and that milk both make your tits swell big and juicy, then you can analyze the two of them to compile physiology data for making big tiddy in the autodoc.  That will probably be done in the Infirmary Deck, which you'll have to sweet-talk your way onto, and that makes me think that there could be a whole aspect of play that's you seducing your way into gaining access to more and more of the ship.

I'd love to get feedback on the bioreactions changes.  I really want to get the foundation of this game to work right so I can make it go far.

Thanks pervs!
