0005601: SPONGE_MAN has improper body shape conversion
CREATURE:SPONGE has the body BASIC_1PARTBODY_THOUGHT, not BASIC_1PARTBODY.

CREATURE:SPONGE_MAN copies the tags from CREATURE:SPONGE, and then looks for the BASIC_1PARTBODY tag, removes it, and replaces it with BODY:HUMANOID_SIMPLE. But since CREATURE:SPONGE doesn't have BASIC_1PARTBODY, so it ends up with two body lines, one indicating BASIC_1PARTBODY_THOUGHT, and one indicating BODY:HUMANOID_SIMPLE.

I'm not actually sure if this causes problems, but it's an inconsistency and causes my raw processing scripts to throw errors.
Solution: change CREATURE:SPONGE_MAN to look for BASIC_1PARTBODY_THOUGHT, not BASIC_1PARTBODY. (Or remove sponge men entirely, they're just stupid.)
No tags attached.
