The strength of the slurring effect drunkness applies on you now scales based on how drunk you are. Being "a little" drunk still changes your saymod, and makes you occasionally slur your words...  But being "a lot" drunk kicks it up to 11  Additionally, drunk slurring was separated into "generic slurring" and "drunk slurring", the former which does not scale but less closely resembles drunkness. Generic slurring is used in places such as concussions, so this is an added bonus. As a result of the split, I had to update mind restoration. Now it heals all types of slurring, which does include cult slurs. I, and many other people, always found it very annoying when you became completely illegible from taking one sip of a drink. This seeks to amend that by making low levels of drunkness still for the most part be legible and sane. Average drunkness is roughly the same / equal to the old slurring effect, while "very drunk" is even more illegible and silly (which I find funny). This has the added bonus of separating out "drunk slurring" and "generic slurring", allowing effects to slur your words without going full ham on drunkness (burping and "huhh"s). :cl: Melbert add: When you are drunk, the strength of your slurring now varies based on how drunk you are. Being "a little drunk" only rarely slurs your words, being average drunk is the same as the old effect, while being very drunk now slurs your words even more. add: Some non-alcohol sources of slurring, such as concussions, now give "generic slurring" rather than "drunk slurring", which less resemble being drunk (ie, no burping). add: Mind restoration now heals ALL slurring, rather than only drunk slurring (which includes cult / heretic slurring). /:cl:

This makes it so the alcohol tolerance quirk prevents drunkenness from killing you on its own, and reduces some of the later effects:
Why It's Good For The Game
allows for better alcoholic rp without just dying from 200 toxin damage if you drink too much.

balance: The alcohol tolerance quirk now prevents alcohol from killing you (on its own). Now your character can be an alcoholic trainwreck without dying from liver failure just for being yourself! You'll still be, well, a drunken wreck, tho.
