Resin Destroyer Thingy

[NoahKirchner]

Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary):Add in a new chemical mix that, when poured on the ground or turned into a gas, destroys weeds on the ground.

Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole): It would allow the researcher to assist the marines in more ways with grenades, and helps marines more quickly clear weeds.

Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc): Add a collection of chemicals that, when combined, remove resin weeds on any tile that you pour it on, spray it on, or that gas touches. Maybe have it do slight toxin damage to marines without gas-masks for balance reasons. Also, maybe have it require you to butcher an alien first to learn something about it? Not sure as far as balance goes, that's up to the developer's discretion because I have no ideas for it.

Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KMU0tzLwhbE&app=desktop

I'm almost 100% sure that Polytrinic Acid in a gas does that

I am not sure about that, but polytrinic acid also melts marines in their boots.

We have that, it's called Plant-B-Gone, and there's about 4 bottles of the stuff planetside as a great reminder from Apophis that our abuse of power and knowledge has been brought upon ourselves. It's very useful, but is very impractical as a form of clearing weeds quickly and efficiently. So +1

It doesn't. I once threw a P-Acid smoke grenade into RO while holding off a spitter and Queen, and it melted everything in sight except for the weeds, resin sacs, and resin structures.

If a gas can melt xeno structures, it should melt marines too, not JUST weeds, if you want something like that, use plant-B-Gone.

-1 if Polytrinic Acid can melt it, i'll test it soon

This is not meant to melt xeno walls and stuff, only their weeds.

Plant B Gone is way too impractical for clearing weeds the way you'd normally do. A chem that can be made from chemistry would help us WAY more.
