The vore panel displays a list of the bellies you've created on your character, allows you to save them, and also set up any preferences you might need (such as being indigestible if you have a strong preference against being digested).

Bellies

Bellies can be created and deleted on this panel (though only deleted if they are empty). You can also view the contents of the bellies, release individual people and items, and customize various settings about each belly.

Controls

Belly Modes

There are various belly modes that you can choose from, which are each listed below.

  • Hold: This is the default belly mode for every belly. No action is taken on the items inside... they are simply held onto. This also protects those inside from hazards outside, such as space.
  • Digest: This begins digesting the prey. They suffer brute and burn damage over time and will eventually die, at which point they'll be removed from the belly and leave behind any indigestible items.
  • Heal: This mode slowly heals the prey inside. Keep in mind that this only heals brute and burn damage, only to external organs. It cannot heal toxin or suffocation damage, and will not prevent infections or diseases, nor heal internal organs. It's a good hold-over when taking someone to medical to keep them alive in the meantime.
  • Absorb: Absorbing someone merges them into the flesh of the belly itself. Their name changes to purple once you have finished absorbing them, and people in the belly can no longer see them (unless they, too, are absorbed). Releasing 'All' the contents of a belly does not release absorbed people. Reagents are shared with absorbed people! Get your absorbed people drunk etc.
  • Transform: The various transformation options will convert prey in that belly into the chosen option, such as male or female. Note that this mode is a bit buggy... SS13 is not great at changing characters after they are spawned-in.
  • Shrink and Grow: These options, respectively, reduce or increase the scale of your prey inside of the belly.
  • Size Steal: Decreases the scale of your prey, whilst increasing the scale of your own character.
  • Encase In Egg: Places your prey inside of an egg (determined by the egg type option in the vore panel), which they will remain within once you expel them from your bellies. They can generally easily break out of an egg.

Mode Add-ons

In addition to Belly Modes, there are a number of Mode Add Ons that you can add to each of your bellies.

  • Numbing: Prevents your prey from receiving messages about pain when they are being digested.
  • Stripping: Removes all of your preys equipment and deposits into your belly alongside them.
  • Leave Remains: If your prey enables leaving remains as a preference, then when they are digested, this option will cause various bones to be left in your belly.
  • Muffles: Forces all of your prey's say and me commands to become whisper and subtle commands, respectively. This is a common option for any interior belly.
  • Affect Worn Items: If your belly is set to contaminate in the "Options" tab, your belly will apply goo to all of your prey's worn equipment.
  • Jams Sensors: Prevents the prey's location and health from being reported to medical health scanners, even if the prey is still wearing a uniform with sensors enabled.
  • Complete Absorb: Allows the use of the psay and pme commands for the predator and prey, allowing them to communicate in the predators mind, with no chance of anyone else witnessing it by being too close.

Item Modes

Finally, there are a few ways that your belly can interact with items that are inside of it.

  • Hold: This option simply holds any items safely inside of your belly.
  • Digest: This option will digest almost all items, no matter how unreasonable it might be. There are a few items that are immune to this effect, such as PDA's, ID cards and positronic brains.
  • Digest (food only): This option will digest any items that are considered to be food, but leave any other items safe inside your belly.

Delete Belly

This option does exactly as it says, and deletes that belly from your character. There is no way to get this back, so be absolutely certain that you want to press this button when you do so! In addition, be aware that you can not delete a belly with any people or items contained inside of it, and you can not delete your "default" belly. The default belly is usually the one that is automatically generated as a "stomach" belly when you make your character, this ensures that you always have at least one belly.

Descriptions

Each Belly has a number of decriptions that you can set, these vary from things that are shown to the prey, things that are shown to the predator, or even things that are shown to other people who might be nearby or examining the predator.

  • Description: This piece of text is used to describe the belly reasonably thoroughly. This piece of description is shown to a prey character in their text window when they are placed into a belly, and when they open their vore panel to look at the belly that they are inside. As an example for a stomach, a few popular topics to describe here include the how the belly feels to touch, the sounds that the person inside might hear (eg, a heartbeat) and the environment itself (such as uncomfortably hot, or caring and pleasant).
  • Description (absorbed): This piece of text replaces the description above when a prey character is absorbed into the belly, using the absorb belly mode. It is common for people to describe how a character might physically feel to be melded into another body part, how much control they still have, and what the body part now looks like.
  • Vore Verb: This verb is what will be used to describe a character being put into a belly. It should be a plain verb, which would fit in the following sentence: "The predator is attempting to (verb) the prey into their belly."
  • Examine messages: These are short messages, usually one or two sentences, that other characters will see when they examine your character that has a belly either containing a person, or has absorbed a person into it. Usually people leave a little to the imagination of the examiner, describing their belly as looking full, without explicitly saying what is inside of it. However, you may have transparent bellies, or bellies that are actually holding someone visibly, in which case you can use %prey to also display the names of your prey to examiners. Using multiple lines seperated by an empty line will allow viewers to see one of multiple potential messages when they examine you.
  • struggle messages: These are messages that are displayed when a prey uses the "resist" command inside of a belly. This is split into four categories, either full bellies or bellies with absorbed people in them, and for the inside and outside. The inside messages are the messages that will be displayed to prey inside of your belly when they struggle, such as how the body reacts to their fight. The outside messages are the messages that other players will see pop up when someone near them has a prey struggling inside of them, such as how the belly is stretching or moving. Using multiple lines seperated by an empty line will allow people to see one of multiple randomly selected messages when a prey struggles.
  • Bellymode messages: These are messages that are displayed when an "event" happens in your belly, such as a prey finally being digested, absorbed or unabsorbed. These are split into what message the predator sees, such as feeling the prey finally melt away, and what the prey sees, such as finally being churned up.
  • Idle messages: These are messages that will be displayed to your prey at regular intervals, providing you have idle messages turned on in the options tab. The messages here can be changed for every belly mode. Using multiple lines seperated by an empty line will allow people to see one of multiple randomly selected messages every time an idle message is displayed.
  • Reset messages: This button will reset all of the above messages, deleting all of your hard work and converting them back to the default messages a belly starts with. Don't press it unless you want to do that!

Options

This tab, much like the controls tab, allows you to change what effects are applied to prey inside of a belly. These range from the damage that digestion does to prey, to details such as the contamination that coats items inside of the belly.

Sounds

This tab allows a player to tweak what sounds their bellies make, as well as the noises that are generated by putting prey in, or taking them out of, a belly.

Visuals

The visuals tab allows you to set what image overlay is shown to prey when they are inside of your belly.

Interactions

'Inside'

When you are inside a predator, the top of the vore panel will display the description of the pred's belly that you're held in, as well as anything you can see around you, such as items or other prey. You can interact with them by clicking on the buttons with their names. You can even use this to eat other prey that are in the same belly as yourself!

OOC Escape

This option is to allow you to leave a predator. It should only be used in situations that call for it, such as a predator that has disconnected for a long time and left you stuck in there, or as a 'safeword' if they're breaking prefs. Using this inside a hostile mob will cause the mob to ignore you for vore purposes, and will instead maul the daylights out of you as soon as you escape. All online admins are notified when someone uses this button.

Preferences

There are a number of preference that you can toggle on and off to make sure that your vore experience on this server is safe, and that you never accidentally experience something that squicks you out!

  • Digestion: This is an option for those who don't like digestion as a matter of preference, or have a character that's immune in some way but don't mind being in the same stomach as someone that is digestible. Because it's a preference thing, the admins are notified when someone uses this button. This is saved alongside your other vore/belly prefs. Please only use this if being digested is 'squick' for you. Don't set it to just avoid dying in general. Trying to use it to avoid being eaten by hostile mobs will result in them violently murdering you instead.
  • Absorption: This is an option for those who don't want to be absorbed into another persons body via the "absorb" belly mode.
  • Devouring: This is an option for those who don't like to be eaten in general, this will prevent you from ever being moved into another person's "belly". Keep in mind that this will include more than just stomachs, such as if someone uses an "arms" belly for cuddling.
  • Mobs eating you: This is an option for those that do not want to be eaten by simple mobs. Note that this won't prevent them from attacking you, and may even put in more danger if being eaten might be safer than being clawed at!
  • Feeding: This option allows you to prevents people feeding other characters to your own.
  • Heal-belly: This is an option that can be used to prevent people from healing you inside of the bellies via the Heal-belly mode.
  • Spontaneous Prey: Spontaneous prey refers to actions that cause you to suddenly become prey without a character deliberately moving you into a belly. This can include falling into open mouths, people eating you by dropping onto you, or slipping on space lube into a hungry maw!
  • Spontaneous Pred: This option is the predator side of the options above, and will prevent you from accidentally eating another person by, for example, falling onto them.
  • Drop noms: If this option is disallowed, you will not be able to eat, or be eaten, by a person falling, nor by falling onto them.
  • Slip vore: If this option is disallowed, you will not be able to eat a person by them slipping into you, or be eaten by slipping into them.
  • Stumble vore: If this option is disallowed, you will not be able to eat a person by them bumping into you when blind, or be eaten by bumping into someone when blind.
  • Inbelly spawning: Inbelly spawning is a ghost verb that allows a ghost to spawn as their character directly inside of another player. With this option disabled, ghosts will not be able to attempt to spawn into your bellies.
  • Hunger noises: Disabling this option will prevent you from generating stomach growling when your hunger is running low.
  • Resizing: Disallowing this option will prevent other players from resizing you forcibly, such as by size guns, belly modes or chemicals.
  • Step mechanics: This refers to certain mechanics that take effect between characters of different sizes, and disallowing this prevents those mechanics from taking effect. These include things like taller characters stepping over, stepping on, or picking up smaller characters with their feet.
  • Show Vore FX: This option allows you to turn off and on the image overlay of the belly that you are inside of.
  • Leaving remains: This option, when enabled, will cause you to leave bones and skulls inside of belly that has digested you, if it has the "leaves remains" mode add on enabled.
  • Pick up mechanics: This option allows you to prevent characters twice your size (or taller) from picking you up, and prevent you from picking up characters that are half of your size (or smaller).
  • Spontaneous TF: This option allows players to prevent themselves being transformed by in-game effects.
  • Set taste: This section allows you to dictate what your character tastes like when you are eaten into a belly with "can taste" enabled, or when you are licked.
  • Set smell: This section allows you to dictate what your character smells like when someone sniffs them.

Making Back-ups

Bellies can be backed up with the X-Print Bellies command found in the OOC tab.

Errors! What to do if your bellies have broken!

Rule number one, if you see that your bellies are missing or otherwise been replaced, 'do not save in the vore panel.
