Editing Genes

{{See also|altphrase=This page is a list of genes. For a full explanation of the gene system see|Genetics}}
'''Genes''' are a system for adding capabilities to [[human]] pawns. They can be obtained from character creation or implanted via [[xenogerm]].

Metabolic efficiency, denoted by the [[File:Metabolism.png|20px|Metabolism]] symbol, controls the rate at which pawns get [[Saturation|hungry]]. Harmful genes will increase their metabolic efficiency, getting hungry slower, and thus consuming less food overall. Meanwhile helpful genes reduce metabolic efficiency, getting hungry faster, and thus consuming more food. A baseline human has a metabolic efficiency of 0 (100% hunger rate), and genes can bring it as low as -5 (225% hunger rate) or up to 5 (50% hunger rate). The game prevents you from giving pawns less than -5 metabolic efficiency; it doesn't stop you from exceeding 5, but hunger rate will not go below 50%.

Note that genes with over [[File:Metabolism.png|20px|Metabolism]] 5 cannot be extracted by themselves, and must be extracted in a pack with another gene that lowers metabolism cost.

Complexity, denoted by the [[File:Complexity.png|20px|Complexity]] symbol, affects how many [[gene processor]]s you need to create a [[xenogerm]] from a set of genes.  A [[gene assembler]] can create xenogerms with a maximum complexity of 6, plus 2 for every attached gene processor.  Complexity also determines the base time it takes to create the xenogerm, ranging from 4 hours at ≤3 complexity, to 23 hours at ≥20 complexity (which is then scaled by the [[research speed]] of whoever operates the gene assembler).{{Check Tag|Detail needed|Specific math}}

The type of gene is shown both by its position in the gene tab of the pawn and its background:
* [[File:GeneBackground Endogene.png|32px]] Germline Genes
* [[File:GeneBackground_Xenogene.png|32px]] Xenogenes
* [[File:GeneBackground ArchiteGene.png|32px]] Archite genes

:''Implant this person's xenogenes into a willing subject using a special injector organ. If this person's genes are currently regrowing, they will implant their xenogerm and die in the process. When implanted, a xenogerm will overwrite the target's xenogenes. Germline genes will be unaffected.''
:* Passes on a copy of all xenogenes to a target. Causes genes to regrow for 2 years afterwards. 
:* Using this ability while genes are regrowing kills the pawn.

* If a pawn would've died, but the brain, head, or neck is not directly destroyed, they enter into a regenerative coma. This coma lasts until otherwise fatal conditions are removed, then 7 days after that.
** Does not regenerate limbs or organs, except for the torso.
** Pawns with the Deathrest gene too instead enter [[deathrest]], and lose all [[Hemogen]]. After lethality is removed, the usual deathrest mechanics take place.

=== Body type ===
Since people without these genes can have any of the four body types, these genes effectively limit what body types a xenotype can have. For example, [[File:Neanderthal.png|20px|link=Neanderthals]][[Neanderthals]] cannot be thin, because they have all three of the other genes.

=== Melanin ===

These natural skin colors are '''not available in the xenotype editor and cannot be extracted'''. Every person gets one of these as a germline gene unless they already have a skin-color germline gene (e.g. [[File:Dirtmole.png|20px|link=Dirtmoles]][[Dirtmoles]] have light gray skin instead of these).

These genes are defined in Core, not Biotech. They are all named "Skin color" in-game.

=== Skin ===
These exotic (non-natural) skin colors do not appear on anyone without the gene. Like body type genes and hair genes, a person can have more than one skin color gene (e.g. [[File:Impid.png|20px|link=Impids]][[Impids]] have three), and one will be chosen.

All of these genes have a "random brightness factor" of 0.18 unless otherwise specified.

| Carriers have a reserve of unique resurrector archites which can infuse a corpse, rebuild degenerated tissue and kickstart the vital processes. This brings the dead back to life - though possibly with health issues. This can only be done very rarely, and comes at a steep hemogen cost.

== Notes ==
* Certain genes will not be properly negated by other genes. For example, a drug dependency germline gene, while appearing to be negated by the same drug dependency as a xenogene, will instead cause the negative mood from the lack of the drug to start at 2.5 days instead of at 5 days.

From {{Bad|3}}/?{{Check Tag|Value?}}/{{Good|10}} to {{Bad|5}}/{{Good|10}}/{{Good|20}}. Fix: Some hemogenic abilities can be queued without enough hemogen.
* [[Version/1.4.3534|1.4.3534]] - Fix: Melanin genes can be extracted by gene extractor.
* [[Version/1.4.3541|1.4.3541]] - Fix: Victims of bloodfeeder bites can gain hemogen from the interaction.

** [[#Psychic bonding|Psychic bond]] now gives +10% [[psychic sensitivity]], or +5% if on different maps. Hediff description changed from ''This person has a psychic bond with another person based on the psychic bonding gene.'' to ''This person has a psychic bond with another person based on the psychic bonding gene. The bond itself grants some limited psychic awareness, allowing it to connect even with the psychically deaf''. Bonds can now be created during lovin' allowing pawns already in a relationship when the gene was implanted to bond.
**Many genes now give direct boosts instead of forcing traits, which allows genes and traits to stack:
*** '''Depressive''' gene renamed to [[#Very unhappy|Very unhappy]], no longer forces [[Depressive]] trait instead decreases mood by {{--|10}}. '''Pessimist''' gene renamed to [[#Unhappy|Unhappy]], no longer forces [[Pessimist]] trait instead decreases mood by {{--|5}}.

** '''<Drug> addict-resist''' genes renamed to [[#Alcohol resistant|<Drug> resistant]], Addiction-resistant genes for alcohol, smokeleaf and psychite provide a 50% reduction in tolerance buildup. Addiction-resistant genes for psychite, wake-up and go juice have a 50% multiplier on overdose chance. Smokeleaf and Alcohol resistant metabolism cost reduced from {{--|2}} to {{--|1}}. 
** '''<Drug> addict-immune''' genes renamed to [[#Alcohol impervious|<Drug> impervious]]. Addiction-immune genes for psychite, wake-up and go juice grants immunity to overdoses from the drug. Addiction-immune genes for alcohol, smokeleaf and psychite provides a 100% reduction in tolerance buildup. Smokeleaf and Alcohol impervious metabolism cost reduced from {{--|5}} to {{--|3}}. 
**[[#Smokeleaf dependency|Smokeleaf]] and [[#Alcohol dependency|Alcohol dependency]] metabolism gain reduced from {{+|4}} to {{+|3}}. 
** Fix: Remove reference to damage over time in acid spray ability description. {{Hover title|Spray a sticky acid substance from glands in the neck up through the mouth and all over the target area.

** Buffed [[#Furry tail|furry tail]] minimum comfy temperature offset from {{Good|{{temperature|-5||delta}}}} to {{Good|{{temperature|-10||delta}}}}.
** When a [[#Deathless|deathless]] pawn takes damage that would have been lethal and falls into a deathrest coma instead, as an additional consequence they lose 3-6% of XP in a random skill. This should make non-death less trivial for these characters and preserve the sense of risk and danger. We’ll tuned this ongoing as needed.
** Fix: Bloodfeed can be used on pawns in mental states.
* [[Version/1.4.3557|1.4.3557]] - [[#Slow study|Slow study]] gene applies a {{Bad|x50%}} factor to [[Global Learning Factor]] instead of a {{--|50%}} offset.
* [[Version/1.4.3563|1.4.3563]] - Fix: Pawns with "dead calm" gene can get into fights over botched conversion attempts. Fix: Genes that remove all passions don't save previous values, causing passions to reset on removal. Fix: Pawns being carried by other pawns strains psychic bond.
* [[Version/1.4.3613|1.4.3613]] - Fix: Reimplant ability not working with custom xenotypes.
* [[Version/1.4.3641|1.4.3641]] - Fix: Inactive sterile gene affects fertility.

* [[Version/1.5.4062|1.5.4062]] -
** Made psychic bond distance thought more permissive. As long as both pawns are on the same map and not suspended (cryptosleep casket) they get the positive thought.
** Remove reference to damage over time in acid spray gene description. ("...it will stick to enemies and burn them over time." to "...it will stick to enemies and burn them.")
** Added more acid filth texture options for acid spray so it never looks tiled.
** Attached helpful text to mouse when selected pawn is aiming animal warcall ability.
** Updated fire spew LOS highlighting.
** Updated psychic bonding hediff tooltip to factor in pawns contained in buildings.
** Clarify that pawns with no xenogenes cannot implant their xenogerm into another person. Show correct warning message on attempt.
** Fix: Pawns with genetic drug needs aren't getting mothballed. Can improve performance in late-game saves.
** Fix: Chemical genes affect tolerance buildup and addiction chance of all chemicals, not just the specified one.
** Fix: On colonist selection, wasters and hussars are currently generating without their drug dependencies.
** Fix: Small increments of pawn speed differences are lost due to integer calculations. Very quick and quick genes were effectively the same on an otherwise unmodified pawn.
** Fix: Drug dependency endogenes aren't properly being overridden by other drug-related xenogenes of the same chemical.
** Fix: Psychic bonds can form between two pawns that have the psychic bonding genes even if they are bonded to other people.
** Fix: Pawns still carry a weapon after getting incapable of violence gene.
** Fix: Pawns incapable of violence still can use combat gene abilities
