So during a dev-mode run building a situation where a single colonist had to get medicine to heal 3 badly injured colonists in cryptosleep caskets, I noticed something odd. My original colonist had gotten a peg-leg onto another that had lost their leg, but later during a fire got burnt and needed treatment. He went into the medical room where the cryptosleep caskets were and started speaking to colonists inside the caskets, both sides gaining the "Had social chat" mood buff despite the person in the casket being more or less braindead for the time being.
This is hilarious. Will fix.
