Seems broken, when i checked the genes they were tainted after death but they also had this mod name under them so im not sure but they had the tainted effects afterwards , using Better Genes if that helps, this mod is above in load order

ah, alright, tbf it could be due to a mod clash on my end

As of right now I am unsure of the state of the mod as I haven't played Barotrauma actively in quite a while. I shall look into it when I can

did this break by any chance? took a gene splicer out of a guys head and it broke it, unless that was meant to happen, in which case ignore me

Still having genetics taint on death, but may be cause the genetics tainting are also modded ones? Im unsure if the mod accounts for that or not. Took them from my duffel bag and they were still tainted

Hey man. Combining genetics always has a chance to taint them, this mod is primarily just to save them for you on death. If people want it then I'm down to make it so it removes the chance to taint when combining. Though it would make the medic talent useless

Hello, for some reason I keep getting tainted genes by combining 2 genes. I think the recent update might have broken the mod?

I'd test it again but sadly both of my genes are tainted in the game I'm playing with a friend so we could really test. More

They were on my body! I think the issue was I went and took the splicer from my corpse instead of letting it decay from a duffle bag! Super sorry for taking so long to respond IRL was busy busy!

Can't seem to reproduce the issue. Were the tainted genes in your duffel bag or on your body?

Huh. Weird. I'll look into it

I was running this mod with my friend and it didn't seem to stop the tainting on death, my Genes were still tainted when we died

Oh nice! You managed to figure out how to prevent the taint on death

WE BALLIN!

Hyped to see it man!

Good ideas guys. I'll look into it later today, might be able to have it done today or tomorrow as well.

Yeah, that's a good idea, death tainting genes will be annoying.

Please update this to make it so death does not taint the genes!

also if a combined gene gets tainted on death it basically might as well be destroyed with how awful most of the tainted effects are. Sure we can remove taints now, but if I'm reading it right, it only works if I combine it with a 100% gene of a different type, so it shouldn't work on already combined genes. I'll also have to see how the supposedly easier to refine genes work, but it took quite a bit to get a gene to 100% before.

The taint genes on death mechanic for current base game is probably going to be annoying without a mod to fix it. Especially since at the end of a session we usually have some people log off while the rest of us do some sub housekeeping while connected to an outpost, and all the people who logged off end up dead from "brain death". I'm going to have to make them remove their splicer before they log off or something, instead of just letting them dip without having to worry about anything extra.

Roger, roger.

Good to hear man, thanks for testing it. Lmk if you run into any issues

Both mods works in tandem, there is no need for a patch.

Oh thank you, I'll give it a run.

It's likely there'll be some compatibility issues, but give it a whirl on a fresh save as to not bug genetics on a campaign. If it doesn't work, or just breaks genetics, let me know and I'll see if I can throw together a compatibility patch for it

Is this mod compatible with a mod that buffs genes?

Sorry for delayed response. Busy few weeks.

It should still work based on the recent update logs. If there's any issues with it, let me know and I'll see if I can fix it :)

Does this still work?

I appreciate the support!

Confirmed working! Thanks Marvin! Awesome mod.

Alright should all be working now

Took the opportunity to patch the issue the mod caused with combining. Genetics should work just like vanilla, just unbreakable now

Ope. It would appear that I did

Heya man! I was stoked to see an update out for this, thanks for that! I think you may have published the update using the Workshop Mod version instead of your Local Mod version perhaps, cause the Hash broke on it.

Easy fix client side by removing the Hash line in localappdata, but I figured I'd let you know!

If I remember correctly, when you die your genetics should be left in your splicer in your body bag

if it doesn't work tell me and I'll see if I can fix it

Does this allow you to keep genes on death too?

Looks like they made it so its not causing the stacking issue anymore huh

It would appear that the 1.0 patch somehow... Fixed this mod???

Anyway it works now. Thanks Baro devs, very cool

insane but mod is working on 1.0 with 15+ other mods

i dont play anywhere near as much anymore

if i get back into the game at all i'll fix it xoxo

Mod is ancient at this point and causes multiple bugs with combining genetics. Do not use this anymore.

Thank you so much!! I always hated when I got another of the same type of genetic material!
