View source for Guide to Chemistry

This guide will primarily be useful for [[chemist]]s and [[scientist]]s but may come in handy to any player and especially [[traitor]]s.

'''Protip! You can hover over reagents needed in the formula to see how to create them'''

==Chemicals==
The building blocks of chemistry are aluminium, bromine, carbon, chlorine, copper, ethanol, fluorine, hydrogen, iodine, iron, lithium, mercury, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, potassium, radium, silicon, silver, sodium, plasma, sugar, sulfur, and water. These can be produced from the Chem Dispenser in [[Chemistry Lab|Chemistry]]. Grinding minerals from mining will also get you Uranium.

You have all sorts of things here, and can make so much. You can make medicines, foam, flash powder, poisons, space lube, and so much more. The limit on combinations is a limit that exists only in your creativity (and the game engine). Be sure to be careful though, mixing the wrong chemicals can be bad for your health and please make sure you know what a chemical does before you use it. Experiment at your own risk.

Mixing these chemicals often requires a device called the [[File:Chemical_heater.png]] '''Chemical Heater'''. With this, you enter a given temperature (in degrees Kelvin) to heat or cool a beaker and its reagents. This can sometimes result in dangerous reactions, so be careful!

'''Oh and there is a welding fuel tank on your wall. Dont go on a trip to steal one from somewhere.'''

'''All the recipes and reagents listed below are sorted by category and alphabetical order.'''

==Active Pure Chemicals==
A.K.A. what happens when you eat these. Chemicals unmentioned don't have any effect. All active pure chemicals have a metabolism rate of .4 units per cycle unless stated otherwise.
*'''Chlorine''': Causes 1 burn damage.
*'''Ethanol''': The most potent alcoholic "beverage", with the fastest toxicity.
*'''Fluorine''': Causes 1 toxin and 1 burn damage.
*'''Iron''': Helps slowly restore blood at a rate of 0.8cl per cycle.
*'''Lithium''': Causes twitching, drooling, moaning and not being able to walk straight.
*'''Mercury''': Has a 70% chance to cause 1 brain damage, metabolizes at 0.2u per cycle.
*'''Plasma''': Causes 1 toxin damage. Heals plasmamen. Purges 2 units of Epinephrine from the body.
*'''Radium''': Causes 4 radiation damage up to a cap of 80.
*'''Sugar''': Gives nutrition, has a chance to reduce stuns, and has a rare chance to decay into a small amount of epinephrine. Overdosing on this will put you into diabetic shock.
*'''Toxin''': Causes 2 toxin damage.
*'''Uranium''': Causes 2 radiation damage.

==Beyond the obvious==

You can heat up beakers with cheap lighters, welders, et cetera. You can get a cheap lighter at the very start of the shift via enabling it in your loadout (character creation screen), or from a vendomat. Each click heats the beaker up by around 20-30 degrees, which means you can achieve desired temperatures in 2–3 seconds. This makes chemical heaters entirely redundant.

Some chemicals emit toxin vapors upon mixing. If you breath from the atmosphere, wear a gaskmask (no internals needed) or apply internals.

You can label beakers with a pen. One is available in your PDA (rightclick -> remove pen). The hand labeller will not work.

You can get access to an additional chem (Toxin) by opening the chem dispenser's panel with a screwdriver, multitooling it and then applying the screwdriver again.

'''"Metabolism rate"''' indicates how much of a substance gets "absorbed" by a body every 2~ seconds (that's called a cycle)  to trigger the effect's of a given substance. In majority of the cases, if the substance metabolization rate isn't specified it's most likely 0.4.<br>
If you are well-fed, denoted by "Feeling Vigorous", you metabolize chems '''25% faster.''' This does not mean that chemicals work faster on the body, but rather that they are purged at a quicker pace.

== Components ==
These are very basic chemicals that you'll use in a lot of other more complicated chems. They can still be toxic, though.

See [[Guide to Medicine]] for more information on what to use when.

===Core Healing Medicines===
These healing drugs form the "core" drugs used to heal the most common forms of damage. All other medical drugs outside of this section are either harder to make upgrades, or highly specific forms of healing for rarer situations.

===Superior Healing Medicines=== 
These healing drugs are harder to make than the core healing drugs, however they are significantly better at healing.

Also, many upgraded drugs can be overdosed with, leading to a negative outcome. Be sure to monitor how many units of chemicals someone is injected with.

== Narcotics ==
Narcotics are highly addicitve drugs that can aggressively, or passively, provide a benefit. Be wary as its very easy to become addicted, or overdose, on a narcotic.

As a general rule of thumb, the more of a positive effect (or any effect) a narcotic can provide, the easier it is to get addicted or overdose on it.

People who overdose or get addicted to Narcotics tend to usually end up dying to the negative effects or requiring immedient medical attention. Take in moderation.

== Beyond the Dispenser ==
Just because it isn't found in the dispenser or the guide above doesn't mean you can't use it! Holy water, slime cores and plenty of other things can provide limitless fun for an enterprising and curious chemist.

You can move beyond beakers too. Bottles, cups, even your own stomach (if you don't have a particularly strong survival instinct) work as beakers!
