Metal Flasks

Post by Lyiat » 10 May 2018, 11:24

So this is another semi-newbie question. I see a lot of the food vendors have metal flasks for the marines to take. What exactly do you use them for? I'm in the understanding you can mix drugs into them but the average marine doesn't get any to use.

They don't really serve much purpose other than RP

Used to be useful for storing hot coco that would heat you up on ice colony, now they can't really be used for much. Maybe tell a doctor to fill it with chems or something.

Don't drink medicines.

You can fill them with tea which helps with toxins or all sorts of juice to help with brute or burns. Or you can fill them with water or booze or coffee if you want to RP.

You can hack the vendors with metal flasks in them to get special, limited edition flasks filled with Hooch.

Well, booze has obvious effects (makes you cool, gets you arrested), but doesn't coffee have a very slight stun resistance and speed boost for a short amount of time? I've tried many times, but I haven't been able to quite prove that coffee can save you from neurospam.

Nah. Devs removed coffee stun resist a long time ago.

If an engineer hacks the meal venders then you get access to special flasks filled with motor oil and rubbing alcohol.

Don't fill flasks with drugs to drink. It's powergaming and just no. Don't do it, don't tell people to do it. That's how you get things removed.

They're reagent containers. There is a bug going on with them that doubles the reagent intake for some reason though. It's not for roleplay, you use them for that reason, same with cigarettes.

No. Tomato juice and milk.

Leaving with a flash full of drugs from your friendly doctor should be standard issue, I like hyperzine.

Alcohol holds painkiller. And painkiller unit from different source cumulates. So if you get a mix of strictly every painkilling product and calculates its metabolizing speed to the same amount of time, your flask could have the strongest painkilling effect, without possible OD, after few seconds.

That's a bit if chemistry but felt like I had to share that.
