Stunner

Stunner is a duplicant trait. A duplicant with the Stunner trait emits electrical shocks when stressed.

This behavior occurs specifically in response to elevated stress levels. The emission of electrical shocks is tied to the duplicant’s stress state rather than a scheduled action or a task-based trigger. The trait is intrinsic to the duplicant and manifests only under the condition described.

Practical notes:

• Preventing or lowering stress in the duplicant prevents the electrical shocks, so stress management is the primary way to avoid the behavior.
• Monitor duplicants with this trait closely for rising stress and intervene promptly to stop shock emissions.
• Consider the placement and duties of a Stunner duplicant to reduce situations that commonly raise stress, since the trait activates only when the duplicant becomes stressed.
• When planning colony layouts and workflows, take into account that this trait can become a factor if stress increases for that duplicant.
