Extracting a genepack causes the ''Genes Regrowing'' condition for 12 - 20 days. This prevents future extraction, unless you want to kill the pawn. In addition, gene extraction causes ''Gene Shock'' for 2 days, with mild symptoms ({{++|5%}} [[pain]], {{--|5%}} [[Consciousness]], {{--|15%}} [[blood filtration]]). | Extracting a genepack causes the ''Genes Regrowing'' condition for 12 - 20 days.
