About The Pull Request
Adds "Storage Cavity", a 1 dna point cost ability that allows you to store 3 small items in your chest.
Any IDs stored will work through the cavity, so the main use is to stow away stolen IDs.
It can be removed (and seen) via organ manipulation surgery.
Opening and closing it creates a quiet noise and can be seen within 2 tiles.
If your chest is uncovered the cavity can be seen as well.
While open, regardless of clothing, it adds an examine message.
Why It's Good For The Game
Changelings have a really hard time actually doing stealth.
They have to constantly manage real and fake equipment.
IDs are the most annoying of these. You can't put IDs in a fake PDA.
So you basically always just have to keep them in a backpack.
But that means you need a grey backpack to avoid suspicion.
Because janitors don't wear medical satchels.
This alleviates that problem slightly by giving you a bit of storage.
It also helps with making ling more capable of stealth.
As of recent, they've gotten too much murder stuff.
So their stealth needs some love too.
