Guide to Chemistry
This guide will primarily be useful for chemists but may come in handy to any player and especially traitors.
What's all this new stuff then?
Confused by all the new strange stuff? Where's your tricordazine? Recently, we added a whole bunch of special chemicals, mostly taken from Goonstation. These are either weaker, more specialised, or vastly more powerful than the old chems, usually being made in several stages. A few of the older chemicals have remained, but Tricordrazine, Ryetalyn, Dexalin, Bicaridine, Dex Plus, Kelotane, Dermaline, and more are all gone.
Mixing these special chemicals often requires a new tool called the 
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!
Additionally, the chemical dispenser has three new reagents. Plasma, Iodine, and Bromine.
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.
You have all sorts of things here, and can make so much. You can make medicines, foam, flash powder, poisons, space lube, window hardener, 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.
Some pure chemicals are lethal or will cause heavy toxin damage if injected or ingested in their pure form.
Grinding minerals from mining will also get you Uranium.
The NanoMed Plus Vending Machines are your main source of generic toxin.
Active Pure Chemicals
A.K.A. what happens when you eat these. Chemicals unmentioned don't have any effect.
- Chlorine: Causes minor physical damage to various body parts.
- Ethanol: The most potent alcoholic "beverage", with the fastest toxicity.
- Fluorine: Causes minor toxin damage.
- Lithium: Causes twitching, drooling, moaning and not being able to walk straight.
- Mercury: Causes brain damage, twitching, drooling, moaning and not being able to walk straight.
- Radium: Causes irradiation.
- 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.
- Sulphuric Acid: Causes minor toxin damage and instant brute damage to one body part when ingested. Destroys head-wear and causes burn damage when sprayed on someone.
- Plasma: Causes major toxin damage.
- Uranium: Causes slight irradiation.
- Toxin: Causes moderate toxin damage.
- Iron: Helps slowly restore blood

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.

When mixed with certain pyrotechnics, it stabilizes the reaction and prevents the reaction for usage later. This does not work on everything, so be warned! |
| Foam Surfactant | 2 parts Carbon 2 parts Fluorine 1 part Sulphuric Acid |
Creates a large amount of foam when mixed with an equal amount of water. This foam carries any reagents along with it in the container, allowing you to apply reagents to large areas at a time. The foam will apply any carried reagents to any walls, floors, objects, or people and animals in the area of the foam. |
| Smoke | 1 part Phosphorous 1 part Potassium 1 part Sugar |
This creates a large butt of smoke that will take on the properties of everything (if anything) in the container of the reaction.
