Toolboxes

Item	Description
Mechanical Toolbox	This toolbox contains many tools needed in the day to day lives of engineers and traitors alike. If you want a reliable way to break into an area, then this toolbox has just about all the tools you'll need. If your job is to repair damage, the tools will be needed when you'll have to fix the inevitable mistakes you'll make. Like all normal toolboxes, it does 10 brute damage. Contains: Screwdriver Wrench Crowbar Welder Analyzer Wirecutters
Electrical Toolbox	The electrical toolbox's contents are intended to help fix and, of course, break electrical equipment. Useful for wiring a newly created (or freshly repaired) room. Insulated gloves are a must when dealing with electricity though. Contains: Screwdriver Wirecutters T-ray Scanner Crowbar 3x Cable Coils
Emergency Toolbox	The toolbox contains a flare, an emergency welding tool, a crowbar, a station-bounced radio, a flare and a fire extinguisher. Contains: Emergency Crowbar Emergency welding tool Pocket Fire Extinguisher Flare

Tools

Item	Description
Tool Belt	Holds all standard tools and has as much space as a toolbox. Very useful. Does no damage as a weapon. Starts without tools unless you start as an engineer, atmospheric technician, or Chief Engineer. Otherwise, you must find tools for it.
Cable Coil	Wire is a common resource, and is used in many constructions, as well as laying down power-lines. Make sure all APCs are connected to the main lines with wires, or you'll have blackouts. For a guide on how to lay down cable coil see here You can also, perhaps, make some stuff with it.
Wirecutters	Used for hacking, removing cables, and cutting grilles. Can also be used to take the fingers off of black gloves. Make sure to wear insulate gloves when working with electricity!
Welding Tool	A handy tool used for repairs and deconstruction, make sure it's fueled and lit before use. Can additionally be used to seal vents, lockers, and doors. Ensure that the welder is off when refueling, or you'll cause the fuel tank to explode.
Wrench	Wrenches are usually used to take things apart, like wall-girders or tables. Otherwise, wrenches are primarily used to secure objects if used for construction. Also a must if undertaking any projects relating to pipes of any kind.
Screwdriver	Used to screw and unscrew all sorts of things. When targeting the eyes, you can use it to blind someone.
Crowbar	The crowbar can pry open things and is used in de-constructing objects like computers and airlocks. It will open fire-locks and powered-off airlocks. Also used to remove floor tiles. Especially useful when they are damaged or you want to fix something under the floor.
Analyzer	Mostly used for scanning the surrounding air and measuring the gas content and composition of pipes and canisters, but can also be used in combination with a remote signaling device to disable anomalies. Does a mere 5 brute damage when thrown at someone.
Multitool	The multitool is for hacking. You pulse wires in any machine or door to see what they do, but be careful, certain wires will electrocute you. Can also be used to check the amount of power going through a cable and to link certain machines and computers.
Flashlight	Projects light in a circle around when activated, even if it's on your belt or in your pocket. The light sources stack to create brighter light sources, so if you have a flashlight in your belt, a flashlight in both pockets, and a flashlight in each hand, along with a hardhat on your head, you will SHINE LIKE THE SUN, LEAVING EVERY DARK CORNER EXPOSED TO TRUTH. Can be used to tell if something's dead or not, with a simple flash of the eyes.
Station Bounced Radio	If Telecomms has gone down and the headset radios don't work any more, just use one of these instead of an intercom if you want to be on-the-move all the time.
T-Ray Scanner	The T-Ray Scanner allows you to see wires and piping through floor tiles. It can cause cloakers to flicker for a fraction of a second before some jerk smashes your head with a gun.
Painters	Floor, Airlock, Pipe, and Window Painters are all pretty self explanatory. Use these to repaint your department, for better or for worse.
Rapid Construction Device (R.C.D.)	Creates walls, doors, floors, and can de-construct almost everything. Fits 100 units worth of matter.
Combat Rapid Construction Device	Identical in function to the regular RCD, but features a 500 matter unit capacity.
Rapid Pipe Dispenser	Can dispense regular gas pipes, gas pipe devices and disposals pipes as well as recycle them.
Compressed Matter Cartridge	Fits into an R.C.D. device, full of compressed matter, which the RCD uses for construction and deconstruction. Each matter cartridge holds 20 units of material.
Engineering Holofan Projector	A holographic projector that creates holographic engineering barriers.
ATMOS Holofan Projector	A holographic projector that creates up to three holographic barriers that prevent changes in atmospheric conditions. Does not hold in high temperatures such as fires.
Fire Axe	A robust tool capable of opening any unbolted door and instantly smashing windows when used in two hands. In addition, it deals a whopping 24 brute damage. Use a multitool to unlock its cabinet and a crowbar to close it.

It is used when fighting fires and will protect you against temperature extremes, at the cost of a much slower movement pace. Guaranteed to be in Atmospherics, it's usually better to wear one of those hardsuits instead. However, Station Engineers don't usually fight fires since that's what the Air Janitors are meant to do.
Atmospherics Firesuit	A very thick, bulky and heavy suit designed to go over your jumpsuit. It is used when fighting fires and will protect you against temperature extremes, at the cost of a much slower movement pace. Guaranteed to be in Atmospherics, it's usually better to wear one of those hardsuits instead. However, Station Engineers don't usually fight fires since that's what the Air Janitors are meant to do.

Atmospherics items

Canisters

Canisters	Large Canisters	Description
Canister	N/A	An empty canister containing nothing. Using the label option, give it any paint-job or name you want.
Air Canister		20% Oxygen, 80% Nitrogen. It's your typical fresh air mix but pressurised greatly. Remember that the canisters have gargantuan volumes in comparison with internal tanks, and that using a canister rather than an air pump to re-pressurise rooms may be a harmful disaster of it's own.
CO2 Canister		Carbon Dioxide is a lethal, invisible gas that can quickly choke anyone who breathes it in.
N2 Canister		A highly inert gas, Nitrogen is the least of your worries when it comes to the possible concoctions that arsonists have a liking to.
N2O Canister		Nitrous Oxide. This is used in combination with 20% Oxygen to make an anaesthetic used in Medbay and, if released into the air, make non-consensual naptime upon inhalation. A leak of this is concerning, but not likely to be deadly.
O2 Canister		Oxygen in a can. You should use this to fill up your internals to full when possible.
Plasma Canister		This contains pure Plasma, a toxic, poisonous and unbelievably flammable gas when mixed with O2. A Plasma gas leak is a potential station catastrophe.
