Bottom post of the previous page:

the wiki says you can hack a c4 (and thus make the whole motion sensor thing) but the last time I tried it didn't work. I screwdrived it open, but then using a multitool on it did nothing, and using it in hand just brought up the window where you set the timer.

you have to use an assembly item on it iirc, like a signaller

Bartender is actually just an alcoholic chemist. Glasses are beakers and the mixer is a large beaker. Here's a couple tricks I've found.

Unless someone comes in with science googles ONLY YOU know what is in a drink due to the beer goggles. As traitor this proves to be very handy.

If your drink has a neat sprite (like syndicate bomb, changling sting, etc) it will look like that sprite as long as its the majority of the glass it is in.

There's a lot more to bartender if you really look into it. I got way too carried away and calculated how much for a given drink will kill you the other day using simple math and testing on myself.

Yeah it's great. There's a reason it's my favorite job.

Also you get a snowflake shotgun which is awesome when shit hits the fan and you prepared a box of shotgun slugs

I like some of the subtle effects of certain drinks too that aren't mentioned on the wiki, for instance Barefoot. It heals brute damage under a certain, but obvious condition.

Cuba Libre's is nice too tbh.

Speaking of that, I know you can craft shells, but can you add anything to a tech shell? Like for a classic rocksalt shot, or capasin for stun shell without the electric?

tell us the secret effects

Alright lad
Cuba Libre heals revolutionaries, and only revolutionaries. Dunno about headrevs though.
Barefoot heals your brute damage, and quite a decent amount too but only while you're not wearing shoes.
Syndicate bomb has a small chance of playing an explosion sound when drunk.
Demon's Blood and Devil's Kiss makes any nearby Salughter Demons drain your life I *think*. That one i'm not so sure about.
The something fizz (I can't remmeber it's name of the top of my head, the glass looks like a magnet) makes you attract loose bits of ore to your person.
Anti-freeze warms you up enough to survive in space, if you don't mind stumbling about drunkenly so I wouldn't recommend it.
Iced tea cools you down if you're overheated and heals toxin damage better than tea does.
Changeling Sting causes Changelings to rapidly regenerate their chemical storage while it's in their system.

That's all I can recall off the top of my head

That Changeling Sting tip actually sounds really useful

If only changelings weren't boring and/or disabled

Cuba libre is both and same for each. Heals all stats and O2 loss.
Demon's Blood and Devil's kiss have each its own effect. One prevents you from being sucked into demon pools and the other causes brute damage to the demon who eats you but i cant recall what does what.
Screwdrivers heal rad damage for engineers

Why are those bonuses not mentioned on the wiki? They're cool and totally should be

Because nobody updates the wiki

The wiki is pretty outdated in a lot of places. I'd gladly do edits if I am able too

i know that straight lime juice can cure a bit of toxin damage

yeah, it has a 20% chance per tick to heal 1 toxin. Cream is the same with brute, tomato juice does it for burn, and OJ does it for oxygen.

What's a good drink for a detective? I generally go with hard whiskey or a rum and coke for the sake of being hardboiled, but if any seekrit drinks heal him in particular or give security-related benefits it'd be handy to know.

There aren't any drinks that heal the detective in particular but there probably should be.

I second that. Maybe the detective should have a tolerance to that certain drink too? When I've served the detective as bartender the drink of choice is always whiskey based so maybe a ninja update where the whiskey base alcohols heal certain damages up to the 50% threshold (Whiskey straight (on the rocks), Whiskey sour, Whiskey Cola, etc.)

Yeah, the detective should be a hard drinker and not get drunk off a couple sips of hard liquor as he currently does.

I support making the detective start the round as an alcoholic with the ability to wean himself off as the round progresses or remain as such with the added bonus of never vomiting or slurring his speech when drunk.

The Manhattan's description calls it the Detective's drink of choice. It's got whiskey in it too.

A lot of them you got right, here's the corrections:

Demon's Blood prevents you from being pulled into blood pools by a demon, you're 100% safe while you have some in your system.
Devil's kiss just fucks the demon up if it tries to pull you in (25 brute to the demon, and lets you go)
Fetching fiz? - Pulls all ores nearby(3 turfs) towards you every Life() tick (it's a step, not a throw, so you won't get hurt)

Give the detective snowflake alcohol resistance when

whenever i have a very small amount of damage i go to the bar and chug juice so i don't have to waste medical supplies.

Yeah juice was great back when slipping damage was a thing. Slipping damage was still terrible.

He did but he only gave it to the bartender.

If you alt+click a cigarette packet you close it.

game changer of the year

If you target the mouth then attack your self with a cig packet you'll get a cig in the mouth, one handed.

You can open the cigarette packet while it's in your pocket by clicking and dragging it onto yourself.

Pilgrim wrote:You can open the cigarette packet while it's in your pocket by clicking and dragging it onto yourself.

This works with any storage container in your backpack as well. Try dragging your box from your backpack onto yourself. It'll open and you'll be able to both put items in and take them out.

You can drag it onto your actual sprite to open it like you would a backpack

TIL that Hearty Punch is a reference to Bastion

first because lighters fit in cigarette packs

drones can smoke cig/ars

The syndie cigarettes are incredibly robust as they are filled with omnizine. You can guarantee you'll walk away alive from anything that doesn't kill you instantly, and people tend not to pay attention to your cigarette box if you keep it somewhere unsuspicious such as your pockets. Also, they only cost 1 or 2 crystals so you really have no excuse.

Reminder to ahelp if people dunk you because of your syndie smokes.

damn i always forget about that. most of the time i just use welders. Zippos too?

Lighters are for fags.

Welders for badasses

I would, but my spesswaifu doesn't show up that often anymore and ERP is banned, anyway.

Did lighting smokes with lasers ever get implemented?

Don't think so

Can you use eswords? I can't remember.

You can.

But not double E swords, which I think is a bug
