Player Panel
The Player Panel is simple administrative interface that includes pertinent information about a mob and the client possessing the mob. Furthermore, it includes various utility buttons such as Enforcement Tooling, the Antagonist Panel, and various fun transformations buttons. The Player Panel can be accessed by ctrl-left-clicking a mob while you are an observer or by right clicking the players and using the player panel verb.
Enforcement Tooling
One of the most common uses of the Player Panel is for Game Admins to track player warnings and bans, apply punishments, and otherwise regulate player behavior in-game. The panel header includes some important information about the client's BYOND account, mob data, and ckey. Additionaly there is an imporant quicklink to the Global Ban DB which contains information about the player's public bans on other servers.

DNA Blocks: The Game Admin can view the player's current DNA blocks in order to see which powers or debuffs they have activated. If the Block is red, it means the power is not active, if it is green, it means the power is active. Game admins can flip these powers on and off by clicking on the name of trait. You can see all Genetic traits here.
Rudimentary Transformations: Rudimentary transformations are much like the standard transformations previously covered but are implemented slightly differently.
