SlimeTamingFix

A plugin which fixes a bug with Hygrodere behavior.

NOTE: Everybody in the lobby must have this mod installed in order for it to work properly.

NOTE: There is a radius on this effect, don't take the Boombox too far away for too long or the slime will become aggressive again.

Explanation

In the game's code, there are references to "taming" Hygroderes by playing a Boombox near it. This is reinforced by an explicit reference to this in its Terminal entry:

they have great taste! cause I made a friend with one somehow,, and we think it was my music.

In-game, being exposed to a Boombox's music speeds up the Hygrodere, and is supposed to trigger code which prevents the Hygrodere from dealing damage. However, this code has a typo which causes it to only work when the Hygrodere has been hit by a player (using a Shovel or Stun Grenade); this increases an "anger" timer, but when the anger timer has elapsed, the taming code now works as expected.
