== The Department ==
[[File:Genetics.png|thumb|240px|right]]
Welcome to [[Genetics]].

This room has two [[Machines#DNA_Scanner|DNA Scanners]] and two DNA Scanner Access Consoles, along with some disk boxes and other supplies. The disks are extremely useful, as we will see later.

A nearby containment room holds your test subjects. These monkeys are going to be your guinea pigs. You are going to experiment on them, and make them suffer quite a bit. It's pretty inhumane. But such is life, and after a while it will all be worth it.

== [[File:scanner.gif|32px]][[File:Medcom.gif|32px]] DNA Modification ==
[[File:Unique_identifiers_tab.png|thumb|200px|right|This is the "Enzymes" tab. The "Radiation Emitter" function may randomize certain individual cosmetic features of the person inside, as well as damage their DNA. This menu can be used to transfer identities between people, but it can't be used to change a person's species. This information can also be stored on cloning data disks. Regarding the genetic research, listen to the direct orders of the [[Research Director]]]].

Now, let's get you acquainted with the DNA Scanner Access Console. It has a few things of note. First you need to learn some terms:

===Unique Enzymes===
* Unique Enzymes (UE) = '''Your name'''. Even if you mutate the UE it will have no effect on the name. What you can do however, is to transfer UE from one person to another, copying their name.

===Unique Identifiers===
* Unique Identifiers (UI) = '''Your cosmetic details''' - eye color, skin color, hair style, hair color and gender. <br>

In the DNA scanner access console there is a tab named "Enzymes". This tab can be used to copy UE and UI between people.
*Click "Save" to save a person's UE + UI to the console. You can not save mutations this way (anymore).
*Click "Transfer" to copy the genes of the buffer to whoever is inside the scanner. You can choose between '''Enzymes''' (UE), '''Identity''' (UI) and '''Full Makeup''' (UE+UI).
*Click "Transfer (Delayed)" to copy the genes of the buffer to the next person who steps into the scanner and closes it (such as yourself). This option is only available if the scanner is empty.
*Click "Print" to print a DNA injector containing the genes of the saved buffer. Injecting this into a person will transfer the UE, UI or UE+UI to that person. Unlike mutation [[#Activators_and_Mutators|injectors]] however, these DNA injectors are not permanent, and will only last for a short while after injected.

===Structural Enzymes===
* Structural Enzymes (SE) / Genetic Sequence = '''Your mutations'''. They contain data relevant to your genetic structure. This governs your race and mutations. The term "Structural Enzymes" is no longer used by the DNA scanner access console since it was replaced with "Genetic Sequence" (which is the same thing), but the term may still show up elsewhere.

=== Genetic Sequencer ===
[[File:Genetic_Sequencer.png|thumb|200px|right|This is what the Sequencer tab may look like with a human in the scanner.]]
In the DNA scanner access console there is a tab named "Sequencer". Here you will alter genes to find mutations. There are '''four''' types of blocks: A, T, C and G. Each pair of letters in the boxes are connected. '''A goes with T, and G goes with C.''' Order does not matter. Each pair has a correct combination of "AT, TG, CG or GC" that needs to be filled. If you see a an unmodified pair be X-T it means the right combination of that pair is A-T. When all 16 pairs have the right blocks, the mutation will activate and you will be able to store it. Monkeys can only have the ''monkified'' mutation unless [[#Humanizing_a_Monkey|humanized]]. Once you have found the name of a mutation, that mutation will be permanently identified in all DNA scanner access consoles. <br>

You might want to disable the monkey mutation by replacing one of the healthy pairs with annother letter. How to do all this will be detailed in [[#Guide_to_finding_and_using_mutations|the guide below]]. <br>

====[[File:Gene_scanner.gif]] Genetic Sequence Scanner====
[[File:Gene_scanner_results.png|thumb|200px|right|What it looks like after clicking someone with the "Genetic Sequence Scanner" item, and then using the Genetic Sequence Scanner in hand and selecting "Mutation 39". Note that we now know that the first pair should be C-G. ]]
The more difficult mutations will have a lot of unknown (X-X) pairs. You cannot just randomly enter A-T, since it's predetermined what it's supposed to be. Knowing all this, you could whip out the genetic sequence scanner [[File:Gene_scanner.gif]] from your pocket. If you're looking for the correct pairs of mutation 39, scan people until you find a person with mutation 39. Then use the scanner in your hand for a menu to pop up. In the menu, select "mutation 39". This gives you a reading which will likely give you more information about which pairs you need to finish mutation 39.
[[File:Genetic_Sequencer_solved.png|thumb|200px|right|What it looks like after correctly filling all pairs. Mutation 39 turned out to be ''monkified''. Since solving a mutation activates it, the subject in the scanner is now a monkey.]]<br>

You can use your Genetic Sequence Scanner [[File:Gene_scanner.gif]] on a DNA scanner access console to permanently synch the item, which makes you see the names of discovered mutations when scanning people with it.<br>

More info about some of the other tabs can be found in the [[#Guide_to_finding_and_using_mutations|guide further below]].

!Telekinesis
|''"A strange mutation that allows the holder to interact with objects through thought."''
This power allows the subject to control things with their mind, from far away! It is the most sought after power, since it allows for incredible deeds, and makes a strong robuster nearly immortal. To use it, switch to an empty hand and click on an object (note that, if they can, your character/the game will prioritize picking up an object normally over picking it up telekinetically). A circle symbol will appear underneath the object and in your hand and you can now control the object. You can also use any console from a distance.

=== Guide to finding and using mutations ===
This guide here shows you step by step how to find the powers from the mysterious blocks!

==== First Steps ====
This guide will start with using a monkey, because they're in the pen for a reason.

* Start by taking a '''monkey''' from the pen.

* Shove it into a '''DNA Scanner''' next to the pen, by click dragging.

* Check the '''console''' next to it, you'll see a bunch of options. Find ''Genetic Sequencer''.

All mutations are randomized every round.

==== Humanizing a Monkey ====
Always humanize your monkey first, or their powers wont work or be savable.'''
# You and your geneticist buddy automatically share the mutations you've discovered, so work togheter to discover them all.
# Click through the mutations and find ''Monkified''. Then break a random pair by changing a letter to X.
# When you've done it, you'll see the name on the top has changed from "monkey" to a randomly generated name. Congratulations, you've got your very own monkey-person!
# If for any reason you got yourself some bad mutations and have no one to remove them, grab the [[Guide_to_chemistry#Mutadone|mutadone]] pill bottle in your lab. You usually have several 50u pills available, which is overkill. Dissolve a pill by pouring a tiny amount of water into a beaker (by using the beaker on a sink once), then drop a pill of [[Guide_to_chemistry#Mutadone|mutadone]] into it and take a sip. It should instantly clear all your mutations.
# [[Guide_to_chemistry#Mutadone|Mutadone]] will also clear the ''monkified'' mutation from monkeys, instantly turning them human. Use a dropper set to 1u to squirt the dissolved [[Guide_to_chemistry#Mutadone|mutadone]] into the eyes of monkeys to mass humanize them without needing any machinery. This will not make you "discover" the monkified mutation however.

==== Manifesting Mutations ====
Back to business! Now we'll try to make a mutation show itself to us:

# Find a mutation that has broken pairs.
# Start filling in the X's. This is fairly easy since most of them are connected to an A, T, C or G. So X-T would be A-T.
#* The left click increments from A to G (A>T>C>G>A) — the right click, the other way around.
# You will often find X-X pairs. Make sure the rest is fixed first and then guess it. There's 4 possibilities. AT, TA, GC and CG.
# If there's more than 2 double X-pairs, consider using the Genetic Scanner (as described [[#Genetic_Sequence_Scanner|above]]) by scanning the other monkeys, yourself, or random crewmembers, or the JOKER option when editing a letter, which finds the correct letter for you (on a very long cooldown—''20 minutes'' on unupgraded scanners).
# If completing all pairs didn't work, you may have messed up somewhere. Double check. Also make sure they're not still a monkey. If all else fails, move on to another mutation or [[#Scramble DNA|scramble]] their DNA.

==== Scramble DNA ====
Clicking the Scramble DNA button will blast the subject's DNA with damaging genetic pulses, and randomize which discoverable mutations it has.

{{Anchor|Activators_and_Injectors}} <!-- Former name -->
==== [[File:DNA Injector.png|64px]] Activators and Mutators ====
After manifesting a mutation in the [[#Genetic_Sequencer|Genetic Sequencer]] tab, hit ''store'' to save it to the "Storage - Mutations" tab. You can print activators and mutators from both the Sequencer and the Storage - Mutations tab.

*'''Activators:''' An activator will permanently activate specific mutation in a person who already has mutation dormant as shown with a [[#Genetic_Sequence_Scanner|Genetic Sequence Scanner]] [[File:Gene_scanner.gif]]. For example, since all humans have the ''monkified'' mutation dormant in them, a ''monkified'' activator will always work on humans. Using an activator will not increase [[#Genetic_Instability|genetic instability]]. Used activators can be recycled into the DNA scanner access console to produce [[#Chromosome_21|chromosomes]].
*'''Mutators:''' A mutator will manifest a mutation in a person, regardless of if that person has that mutation dormant or not. This will inflict the mutation's [[#Genetic_Instability|instability]] (causes death if it reaches 100%). The mutation and its instability may then be removed by taking [[Guide_to_chemistry#Mutadone|Mutadone]].
<br>
The DNA Scanner Access Console takes time to recharge after producing an activator or mutators. The activator has a much shorter cooldown.

==== [[File:DNA Injector.png|64px]] Advanced Injectors ====
[[File:Time-Green_advanced_injectors_first_screenshot.png|thumb|200px|right|This is the "Adv. Injectors" tab. ]]
After discovering one or more mutations, you have the option to create advanced injectors. Advanced injectors will let you save multiple mutations in a single injector. The amount of mutations in a single "save" is limited to 50 [[#Genetic_Instability|instability]] or 10 mutations. Unlike activators or ordinary mutators, these can be named anything you want. To create an advanced injector, do the following:
#Go to either the "Storage - Adv. Injectors" tab. Click "Create new injector" and choose a name to crate a new slot for mutations to be stored in.
#Go to the [[#Genetic_Sequencer|Sequencer]] tab or the "Storage - Mutations" tab and click on a stored or discovered and active mutation.
#Click "Add to advanced injector". Select the name of the slot you made in step 1. Repeat with any other mutations you wish to save to the same advanced injector.
#Go back to the "Adv. Injectors". Click ''Print''. You will print an injector with named "Advanced (name) injector".

==== Genetic Instability ====
When you manifest a power, you may get a message like "It feels like your skin is moving." This is telling you that your genetic instability has gotten higher, and you'll need to be careful not to add too many more powers. All humans can withstand up to '''99 genetic instability''' before they start to bubble and melt. 100 instability would be too much. What happens when you suffer from a genetic breakdown is random and unpredictable. Negative mutations generally don't give you instability, but powers do. As a rule of thumb, the stronger the power, the more instability it gives. Choose your powers wisely.


==== Chromosome 21 ====
Every time you successfully use an ACTIVATOR on another person, the activator becomes filled with genetic data. Recycle/use it on your DNA console for a 60% chance to gain a random chromosome. The chromosome gets stored in the "Storage - Chromosomes" tab. Clicking on a chromosome gives you information about it. You can also eject it into its physical form. Physical chromosomes can only be used by inserting them into a DNA console. <br><br>

Each active mutation in a person has a single chromosome slot. You can only add chromosomes to people who are inside the connected DNA scanner. Do so by opening the ''Sequencer'' tab. Then click an activated mutation, or [[#Manifesting_Mutations|find one]] if none is active yet. You should see the line ''Select a chromosome'' followed by a list of chromosomes that mutation would be compatible with. Select a chromosome in the dropdown menu and you have now filled that mutation's chromosome slot. To delete the chromosome from a mutation you need to deactivate and reactivate the mutation by changing any letter and then back. <br>

After you have added a chromosome to a mutation, you can ''store'' it to the ''Storage - mutations'' tab as normal (by clicking ''Save to console'' in the ''Sequencer'' tab). Mutations from mutators/activators printed from this stored entry will then contain that chromosome.

These are the currently available chromosomes you can get (the chance for a chromosome to be of a specific type is listed next to that type in parenthesis):
* '''Synchronizer''' (5/16): Gives the mind more control over the mutation, reducing some downsides by 50%.
* '''Stabilizer''' (1/16): The rarest chromosome. Reduces [[#Genetic_Instability|instability]] gained from the mutation by 20%.
* '''Power''' (5/16): Boosts strength of certain mutations. Experiment with super sneeze or even deadlier fireballs!
* '''Energetic''' (5/16): Reduces cooldown on action based mutations.
* <s>'''Reinforcement''' (3/19): Makes the mutation immune to mutadone.</s> Removed Aug 2020.

Chromosomes aren't supposed to be addable to mutations that won't benefit from them. For example, you can't use the energetic chromosome on the monkey mutation.

=== What to do with your powers ===

* Export your best powers to a disk, as a backup. There's always the risk of an [[AI]] or someone else deleting them for any reason.
* Make injectors to give to <s>[[Assistant|the greytide]]</s> the [[Chain_of_Command#Heads_of_Staff|heads of staff]], the [[Security|security]], or the [[Engineer|Engineers]]. You can also sell them for money!
* Because injectors exist, geneticists may often be asked for powers by randoms. Use your best judgement to decide who gets powers and not, because nothing gets the station down like a herd of assistants with Hulk. Be ready to say "no" a lot. You are allowed to have powers, but if you run around the station while being a hulk don't go on a killing/destroying rampage as that's a bannable offense. 
* Enjoy being the peak of human evolution! Use your powers for the greater good, or to make security's life hell by breaking down walls to high security areas and by being unstunnable. Remember that hulks are nonhuman to the AI, though, and when security can't stun someone they'll take out their lethals.

=== Healing your subjects and yourself ===
During your experiments, your subjects are likely to get hurt, whether from banging their heads on the tube, or negative mutations—most notably ''H.A.R.S.'' and ''Radioactive''. If unlucky, you may also be hurt. For that, there are several solutions:
* The [[Roboticist]] can build [[Guide_to_robotics#Medibot|medibots]]. The white ones will heal blunt damage, but there also are the green and yellow versions, able to heal tox/rads and burn damage, respectively.
* The [[Chemist|Chemists]] can provide you specific medicines, including [[Guide_to_chemistry#Potassium_Iodide|Potassium Iodide]] for radiations (and toxins in irradiated carbons), [[Guide_to_chemistry#Pentetic_Acid|Pentetic Acid]] for toxins and rads, and several others for burns, brute, or whatever else you may need.

Beware that Radioactive subjects may irradiate you and nearby items, so quickly remove that mutation once found.


=== CRISPR Editing ===

This allows you to swap out base mutations in a targeted way. Base mutations don't suffer from [[#Genetic_Instability|instability]]

==== Getting a CRISPR Charge ====
First, you'll need to collect a CRISPR charge. This is a sample of a virus with genetic abilities you can use to swap out base mutations.
* Get the Viro to make a virus with either [[Infections#Symptoms_Table|Dormant DNA Activator]] or [[Infections#Symptoms_Table|Viral Evolutionary Acceleration]] (Ideally otherwise benign)
* Have a containment protocol, get yourself scanned for diseases if you get symptoms, hope the cure is available if things go south
* Infect a contained monkey, use an Activator (not a Mutator) on it - it collects the charge when it collects chromosomes
* Feed the used activator to the console to add the charge to the console


==== Using a CRISPR Charge ====
You'll need the top row of the sequence pairs of both the mutation you want to target and the mutation you want to replace it with. Here's the basic flow:
* Solve the mutation you want or just use a mutator on a humanized monkey
* Take note of the top row
* On the subject you want to swap mutations on, solve the mutation you want to swap
* Use a CRISPR charge on it
* Feed in a special CRISPR string instructing the virus to replace that mutation with the desired mutation

===== Building the CRISPR String =====
For example, let's say Epilepsy is
* '''<code>A T T A C G C G A T T A C G C G</code>'''
* '''<code>T A A T G C G C T A A T G C G C</code>'''

And Telekinesis is
* '''<code>A T A T C C G G A T T A C C G G</code>'''
* '''<code>T A T A G G C C T A A T G G C C</code>'''

Take note of the first row of both
* Epilepsy is '''<code>A T T A C G C G A T T A C G C G</code>'''
* Telekinesis is '''<code>A T A T C C G G A T T A C C G G</code>'''

You then need to weave these rows together, old-new-old-new-old-new like this:
* '''<code>_A T A T C C G G A T T A C C G G :NEW (Telekinesis)</code>'''
* '''<code>AATTTAATCCGCCGGGAATTTTAACCGCCGGG :CRISPR String</code>'''
* '''<code>A T T A C G C G A T T A C G C G_ :OLD (Epilepsy)</code>'''

Now, when you use CRISPR on the solved base mutation you intend to swap, feed in that string! It swaps ''Epilepsy'' out for ''Telekinesis''.
* '''<code> AATTTAATCCGCCGGGAATTTTAACCGCCGGG </code>'''

If your string is not the right length, nothing happens, but if the string is wrong, you may end up with ''Acid Flesh'' instead, but scrambled and with no guides - hope you've got activators! Careful not to be wrong multiple times, lest you overwrite multiple mutations to the same one and need to shuffle to get them back.

Also, the CRISPR charge, being a repurposed virus, might sometimes go rogue and infect you randomly.

<br><br> Congratulations. If you read everything in this guide, you should now be a full-fledged Geneticist.

==[[File:scanner.gif|32px]][[File:Medcom.gif|32px]][[File:Clone.gif|32px]] Cloning ==
Cloning was removed from the game in Jan, 2020. This is only for historical reference.
<div class="toccolours mw-collapsible mw-collapsed">
Expand for the old guide to cloning.
<div class="mw-collapsible-content">
For a cloning process we need a dead body and cloning equipment, which can be found in your Cloning Room.

# First of all, you have to know that for all things cloning, the [[Chief Medical Officer]] has a final say. He is your boss on this side of Genetics. If he tells you to clone someone and not some other guy, you do it. The only person with higher say than him on these matters is the Captain.
# On to the specifics! How to clone: Just '''grab or pull''' a body and stuff it '''into the [[DNA Scanner]] and close the door'''. If you want to remove someone from a Scanner, click on it to open the door. Unless the Scanner is locked, the person/monkey inside is going to pop right out. [[File:Cloning_console_scan_successful.png|thumb|200px|right|This is the cloning console menu.]]
# When the Scanner is occupied, '''interact with the Cloning Console'''. You will see a few options. The most important one is "scan". Click it. If they can be cloned, scanning will succeed regardless of whether they're in their body or not. There are several possible errors that can happen when you try to scan. See the [[#Cloning_Error|ssection about cloning errors]] for details.
# If scanning is successful, you will get a '''''Successful Scan'' -message'''. That means you now have that person's cloning data saved. You can use this record to steal their genetic data at any time, but cloning is more limited - if their last death happened after they got scanned, any attempts to clone using the scanned record will fail. [[File:Cloning_console_view_records.png|thumb|200px|right|This is what you see after clicking "View Records".]]
# After you actually have DNA data from a person, '''click Check Records''', and then '''click View Record''' of the person who you want to clone. You will see a list of their [[#Unique_Identifiers|UI]](Unique Identifiers) and their [[#Structural_Enzymes|SEs]] (Structural Enzymes). These can be copied and pasted with a cloning data disk (see one of the images to the right). '''Click Clone'''. You will notice that the Cloning Pod is now fully active, with a shadow inside. That is the new body. You can now '''take the old corpse out of the DNA Scanner''', '''strip it completely''' so the cloned person can have their stuff back, and '''place the old corpse inside a body bag in the morgue'''. You don't have to worry about the old corpse anymore. [[File:Cloning_console_view_record_with_disk.png|thumb|200px|right|This is what can you see after clicking a specific "View Record" under "View Records". If you have an ID with cloning access you can delete a record. Otherwise it will say "access denied" when trying to delete it. If you have inserted a "cloning data disk" you have additional options to save or load [[#Unique_Enzymes|UE]], [[#Unique_Identifiers|UI]] and [[#Structural_Enzymes|SE]] (dormant mutations) to and from that disk.]]
# The cloning process takes about 2 or 3 minutes depending on upgrades. For whoever is getting cloned, it may feel like a very long time. While the person is getting their new body formed, take their '''belongings and stuff them all into a locker''', so they're not scattered all over or stolen. Cloning the captain and leaving their ID or other secure items on the floor is bad.
#* '''Aborted cloning:''' Use this as [[traitor]] to screw with that assistant who talked smack to you earlier. During the cloning process, it is possible to eject the incomplete clone by unlocking the Cloning Pod with your ID and ejecting the unfinished clone (needs to be >40% done) or by getting an Engineer to unlock the Genetics APC so you can shut off the power temporarily, which also causes the clone to (instantly, no matter how done) eject. This will usually clone people without limbs or vital organs, making them die quickly.
# The cloned people often have cellular damage. If so, take them to cryo to fix it.
# After the pod is empty, feel free to '''clone your next patient''', and to let the old one out, since they most likely don't have clearance to open the door.
# If R&D has been doing their job, they might upgrade the cloner to a level where it can '''autoprocess'''. If this is the case, you only have to press the Autoprocess button on top of the window, and the cloner will scan and clone automatically. This is useful to process a large pile of bodies quickly. Scan them one at a time, and autoprocess will do the rest.

=== [[File:Husk.png|64px|OH GOD OH FUCK]] Hark! A Husk! ===
So you've come across a [[husk]] (a grey corpse) on your floor, which means you can't clone that poor sod without upgrades. Before you go throwing that body in the morgue, they can still be helped!

# First off, make sure it's a husk. Throw the body into a DNA Scanner, if it says ''Subject no longer contains the fundamental materials required to create a living clone'', then you have yourself a husk (if your DNA Scanner had been [[Guide_to_advanced_construction#DNA_Scanner|updated]] to the max by the Scientists, you could clone the husk right now. So if you know they've been doing their R&D, ask them).
# Take the body down to [[Surgery]].
# Pester the CMO or a Medical Doctor to extract the brain, or do it yourself.
# Put the brain in the DNA scanner like you would a body.

Optionally a husk can be unhusked with [[Guide_to_chemistry#Rezadone|rezadone]]. If all goes well then your cadaver will be reborn. <br>

====Changeling Victims====
If examining the husk shows "He/she is limp and unresponsive; there are no signs of life... " it means the body has a soul online. If the corpse still can't be scanned in fully upgraded cloning, it's possible it was someone who got absorbed by a [[Changeling|changeling]]. There appears to be no easy way to revive absorbed victims. Not even through brain transplants.

=== Helping the Headless ===
Sometimes you'll find a corpse whose head is separated from their body. Thanks to the marvels of modern science, this is not a problem!

#If you have a head or a brain, just chuck it into the cloner as normal. This may require the DNA scanner to be upgraded though. To clone a head or brain you must throw it into the DNA Scanner by activating throw with '''R''' and then clicking it, or by walking into the DNA scanner and dropping the head/brain. Then click the cloner to close it.
#If you don't have the head, but you have the body, not all hope is lost: take a blood sample and give it to the botanist to make a replica pod, and the deceased guy will be reborn as a podperson!
#If you have neither, he's dead for good.

===Cloning Plasmamen===

If the patient is a [[plasmaman]], cloning them will be complicated by the fact that the naked patient will burn in the station's atmosphere. This can be dealt with by using showers to keep the patient from catching fire, then dressing them in a plasma envirosuit.
# Put plasmaman into cloning scanner
# Scan them, start the cloning process
# Drag their dead body to cloning pod
# Undress them and leave their clothes in a pile
# Turn on shower near cloning pod
# Once they pop out of cloner, put them under shower and wait for them to dress up

If the patient is a naked or beheaded plasmaman, follow these additional steps:
# Once they pop out of cloner, put them under shower and feed them a few [[Guide_to_chemistry#Salbutamol|Salbutamol]] pills (if available), or if desperate, keep a syringe of [[Guide_to_chemistry#Perfluorodecalin|Perfluorodecalin]] ready in case you need it. Plasmamen suffocate if they don't have plasma to breathe!
# Yell at [[Supply_crates|cargo]] to order plasmaman supplies. In the meantime, bug Engineering/Atmos for a filled plasma tank.

===Empty Cloning===
Cloners have the option to "Empty Clone" a record, creating a mindless replica of a person. To complement this function, cloners can do Body-Only scans, which can only be used to create empty clones but not real clones, and bypass the sentience restrictions that ordinary scans have. These body-only entries can be deleted without requiring access.

=== Cloning Errors ===

Keep in mind that patching up a corpse with Synthflesh and then reviving it with Strange Reagent bypasses a lot of these issues.

== The Gene Genie - The Traitorous Geneticist ==
Sorry for the bad chapter title. I wanted to use that for a very long time.

So, you learned how to do your job successfully, and how to be a credit to the station. You learned how to manipulate genes. Now you want to learn what the hell to do when the syndicate is the one writing your checks! Well, fret not! I will give you some pointers. But these are mostly tips - traitorous objectives differ wildly, and change your actions way too much for me to write a real guide on it.

=== [[Revolutionary]] ===
If you managed to kill a head of staff, copy their identity with a DNA scanner and apply it to yourself. Impersonating a head of staff during a revolution is useful since they are usually exempt from implanting.

=== [[Traitor]] ===
Depends on your objective. If it's a hard one, like stealing the AI... well, you're fucked. Keep working on those powers! As soon as you have Hulk + TK, go for it as you wish. No tips here.

If your objective is a simple one, though, like stealing the hand tele, there are more approaches to this. As the above tip, you can just break the walls with TK Hulk, but that is rather crass. There's a more roundabout, but classier way to tackle this. Take a monkey from the pen, transform it in a human. Take its UI+UEs, make an injector, stuff it in your pocket with a label like "Clean Backup - Alexa White".<br/>Now get your own UI+UEs and name it "Clean Backup - Original" or something. Avoid using your name. Now, go hide somewhere close to the item's location, stick yourself with the monkey injector, spawn doorjack, stick ID and PDA in your backpack. For added stealth, get a different outfit. doorjack your way to the captain's room, get his hand tele, RUN RUN RUN. The AI might see you, so it would also be good if you spawned an agent card so you can't be tracked. If anyone sees you, they're not going to see your actual name, only the humanized monkey's name. Hide, stick yourself with your own stuff, change clothes, walk away smoothly.

If you have to kill someone, same stuff from rev.

Also, never forget identity theft. Since you can take someone's complete identity, including looks, you can have some fun with that.

=== [[Changeling]] ===
You can DNA sting humanized monkeys to quickly gather stored genomes. Similarly, once people start coming for mutations, you will have plenty of DNA to collect.

=== Returning to Monke ===
If you're looking for combat or stealth bonuses, you may use ''Monkified'' to get the monkeys', as well as several useful mutations (e.g., ''Telekinesis'', ''Shock Touch'', ''Chameleon'', ''Gigantism'' and ''Dwarfism''). 
Monkeys have the ability to steal items from people's hands, ventcrawl, and several other benefits. The transformation is unexpensive and available extremely early in the round (unlike the [[Scientist|Xenobiologist's]] slime transformation).

{{anchor | Guide_to_gorilla}}
Alternatively, there are [[Critters#Gorilla|gorillas]]. Since the [https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/pull/62265 radiation modernization changes (Oct, 2021)], you have a nearly-exclusive access to gorillas. You may transform monkeys into gorillas, including yourself, other crewmembers or antagonists.

Given their status as a ''simplemob'', gorillas are immune to wounds and most chemicals—essentially the ''Hulk'''s weaknesses. They are additionally immune to stuns and shoves (like Hulks), viruses, and mutations. Unlike Hulks, they are unable to destroy reinforced walls.
* Note that gorillas are thus also immune to the benefits of those, and to surgeries. Healing is going to be more complicated than for hulks, and someone may Lazarus their carcasses to assist against the other gorillas.

The gorilla AI is extremely hostile, keeping aggro until their target is dead, and have a tendency to delimb corpses people that are unconscious (incl. hard crit).

To transform a monkey into a gorilla, you have two options:
* ''Genetic bombing:'' once above 2500 genetic damage, monkeys have a 25% chance per second to transform.
* ''Mind-Magnification Helmets:'' when removing MM helmets, the sentient monkey has a slight chance (2.5%) to turn into an equally sentient gorilla.
Additionally, the [[Traitor]] geneticist's uplink offers [[Syndicate_Items#Box_of_Gorilla_Cubes|Gorilla Cubes]] and [[Syndicate_Items#Magillitis_Serum_Autoinjector|an autoinjector]] turning them into a gorilla.
