Hey, hi there. New here. Anyway, Resistance Crossbows. I know of at least three Half-Life references in the game already. We have crossbows, UPSs, and rebars… \[image\] It could work like a coilgun. Why not?

(note, from 25th of may git) Purifier now can’t remove traits, which is good - except that mutagen can give them. Things like pretty, near-sighted, etc, are impossible to lose if you get them via mutagen.

Eh, why not right? Horses, a 1x1 tile animal that you can ride. Basically it would be an animal that moves around but it would be treated as a vehicle when mounted. Or it would reduce movement costs greatly.
