Unit Infections
How it works: The user can specify an "infectious biped" that can infect and transform other bipeds. When the infectious biped attaches to a biped, both units are checked for extensions. If both of them have settings defined in the yelo_globals tag, they will be infected and transformed into a biped specified by the tagger. I've added all sorts of bells and whistles for the transformation process. Taggers can define an effect to spawn during the transition, along with "pulsating flood puss blobs" to attach to the infected biped as the transition happens (a la halo 3).
Obviously still a WIP, but you can expect scenarios where you're fighting along side marines, only to have them transforming into flood forms all around you. This should make the end of 343 guilty spark all the more terrifying.
