Let the Chem Master Make Pillbottles

Post by Surrealistik » 06 Jul 2016, 04:21

Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary):

Per the Subject.


Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole):

Stops me (and other people) from running out of pill bottles when I mass produce drugs, which means I can continue to have an impact on the game via chemistry.

Also quality of life feature that makes bagging pills easier.


Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc):

Add a toggle for pill bottle creation to the Chem Master. While toggled on, it mints a pill bottle that pills it creates are automatically put into, not unlike the way the Chemmaster automatically generates a bottle for chemicals it dispenses. You also are able to name the minted pill bottle, as well as the pills you create.


Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it):

Minor coding.

Unsure.

Limited amount of pill bottles sort of puts a cap on super Combat Stimulants, keeping it from keeping fucking stupid with every marine hopped up on combat stims every moment of every game. That'd be fairly unfair. I think things are okay as they are now.

If you look in medical storage, you'll find at the least four full boxes of pill bottles.

If four extra boxes of pill bottles are not enough for your combat stim production, you're making too many combat stims.

The other half of it is that it's a quality of life feature.

Also, so long as the marines aren't using stims in adequate quantities, you are not producing enough.

There are a ton of pill bottles and the chem master isn't there to mass produce combat drugs. If you want make them, go for it, but this isn't really a quality of life improvement.
