Proof that the Thing exists in our world..Controls:
Left click/Fire to eat someone, you must be able to damage them and be in the range. You cannot eat other Things. You gain 60% (max) of their health when you completely devour them.
Right click/Alt fire to blind anyone nearby that you are able to damage, does not affect if they are also a Thing.
Notes:
If you have a function
Player::setPlayerShapeName it will change their shape name to whoever was devoured. Their shape name color will also change.
If you are under 40% of health (or 50% if your max health was altered), you will turn into a parasite which cannot eat anyone if you were recently damaged. You have to wait about 8 seconds not being damaged before turning back to normal. This will repeat when you keep getting damaged.
Unfortunately I haven't made attempts for bot avatar copy yet, I'll see if I can get it to work
