Medibots Immediately OD People

Post by Deanthelis » 14 Jul 2017, 02:32

Bug Description: When using a medibot with chemicals in a beaker, rather than an internal synthesizer, taking any amount of damage over the damage threshold will cause the medibot to immediately attempt to inject all of its reagents into the intended patient. This causes an OD, which causes more damage, which causes even more of the chemical to be injected. It also injects whatever is in the beaker into the patient, regardless of whether or not it'll help - I tried using water in one, it injected me with it when I had 5 brute.

TL;DR medibots don't check for applicability of their reagents nor OD thresholds when injecting from a beaker.


Steps to reproduce:
1. Make a Medibot.
2. Use an ID to unlock the controls.
3. Put a beaker into it, filled with Bicardine or whatever other chemical (besides Tricord) you want.
4. Take enough damage to cause the medibot to attempt to heal you.
5. The medibot then proceeds to inject you with all of its reagents. And then 15u Tricord, because it ran out and you have damage.

Medibots have never been capable of discerning whether what they have in their beaker will help, on this or any other server; it is why they use Tricordrazine by default, being capable of healing three of the four damage types. The only way around this that I know of is to use specialised medi-bots made out of each of the four different aid kits each treating different injury. I will try this with water in a bit.
