Give Researcher a Toolbox

Post by Surrealistik » 30 Jun 2016, 15:47

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

Per the Subject.


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

Makes the Researcher more efficient by giving him the literal tools he needs to assemble the components he produces. As is he doesn't even start with enough tools to assemble bomb triggers in order to make chem nades! Massive quality of life improvement.

Also, to be completely unambiguous, said toolbox should have a roll of cable coil.


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

Per Subject/Benefits.


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

Add a tool kit to the lab.

+1 no more rushing the singular toolbox in medbay/begging the CMO to get tools from the storage room he has access to and NEVER getting them/getting shot to death for breaking into said storage.
But don't forget CABLE COIL. CABLE COIL is what you need to make an autolathe, which you need to make anything else. You can't get CABLE COIL yourself, at least without dismantling a window (and getting arrested/killed outright for it).

The toolbox should definitely have a roll of cable coil inside of it.

Medbay DOES have a toolbox for those who actually take the time to loot... I mean look around. Far eastern medicine storage. The only thing that I support as an 'add such and such to such and such' suggestion is giving them a cable of motherfucking cable!

Why shouldn't there be one in the lab?

The researcher is the one who needs the toolbox most, yet other people often snatch it up first. This is a quality of life improvement.

Researcher doesn't need to assemble anything. His entire job is basically cloning right now with a side of autopsy. He'll EVENTUALLY get his update.

Maybe I should just disable the job for now.

Don't dissable the job plz and ELECTRICAL TOOLBOX would be nice... But hide it in his maintenance tunnel along with the seed packet ;)

+1, even with the update coming it'd be great just to have the researcher more actively work with the team.
CM was obviously inspired by Starcraft: Ghost opening. At least when marines takes too long to deploy.
