Guide to chemistry

This guide will primarily be useful for chemists but may come in handy to any player and especially traitors. See Chemical recipes for dispenser macros and simplified versions on how to make complicated chemicals (may be outdated). If you don't have a chem dispenser, see the Guide to Ghetto Chemistry.

Tools of the trade

Machinery

You have all sorts of chems here, and can make many things. You can make medicines, smoke, foam, flash powder, poisons, space lube, acid and much more. The limit on combinations is a limit that exists only in your creativity (and the game engine). Be sure to be careful though, as mixing the wrong chemicals can be bad for your health, and please make sure you know what a chemical does before you use it. Experiment at your own risk.

Chemistry Dispensers

Chem dispensers can be upgraded to unlock more chemicals, allow for more precise macro usage, increased power recharge rate and higher power capacity. If you run out of power, you can disassemble the dispenser with screwdriver+crowbar and replace the power cell. Or you can charge the machine with an inducer.

Chemical Heater Chemical Heater

Some chemical reactions will require you to heat the reagents in a Chemical Heater. Unless the recipes says otherwise, these reactions need you to heat the reagents above the required temperature.
This machine will heat/cool a beaker to the desired temperature, slowing down the heating/cooling speed as it approaches the target temperature. If you don't risk making the chemical explode by overheating it (like with meth) you can just set it to a very high temperature to avoid this.
Upgrading the laser will increase the heating/cooling speed. This is extemely useful in Fermi Reactions to control the temperature of the reaction. As the heater is upgraded, the accuracy of the pH detection increases in turn, with a fully upgraded heater capable of detecting reagent purity. The heater is capable of accepting injection of chems into the beaker contained within via a SyringeSyringe or a Dropper.

ChemMaster 3000

Separates, bottles, and makes pills/patches out of chemicals loaded inside. You can load pretty much any container - beakers, spray bottles, water bottles and so on.
Maximum size for dispensed bottles is 30u, patches 40u and pills 50u. Use a chemistry bag File:Chemistry bag.png to quickly move large quantities of bottles, patches or pills.
Can be upgraded with bigger beakers to allow a bigger buffer. By default it contains two ordinary 50u beakers for a total buffer volume of 100u. It can also scan a reagent to give an analysis on the synthesis, accurate purity and optimal pH of a reagent's reaction.

All-In-One Grinder

Grinds, crushes, liquefies and extracts reagents from materials placed into it.
If there is a significant reagent associated with the item, the Reagent grinder will distill a pure sample inside the collection beaker.
For example: Plasma/gold/uranium/metal sheets, donk pockets, fruits, dead mice.

Smoke Machine

Dispenses any chemical inside as a smoke cloud. Needs to be secured by wrenching first.
A great alternative to smoke grenades, but easily incites lynch mobs.
Can only be obtained through the circuit board being printed, and the required parts being assembled first.

The Medical Sleeper

The medical sleeper synthesizes chemicals itself to a purity of 0.7 - This can be adequate for normal medbay functions, but as a chemist you can create chemicals with much better purity - improving patient care and throughput. To add a chemical to a sleeper, simply bap it with a beaker or a syringe.

• Capacitor: Increases efficiency.

Tools

These items are small, but powerful parts of a chemist's arsenal

pH paper

pH paper can tell you the rough pH by putting it into the beaker. The colour of the strip will indicate what the pH is.

Chem analyser

The Chem analyser can give you an indepth analysis of everything in a beaker, notably, the purity and pH. Very useful for ghetto reactions. Can be printed from the autolathe. Toggle the object to give a detailed or reduced analysis.

Eyedropper

The Dropper is a container used for holding 5u of liquids. An empty dropper will store liquids from other liquid containers such as bottles and beakers. Once full, you can squirt the contents of the dropper at any target adjacent or below you, including other liquid containers, or on people's faces. Toggle in hand to change it to drop one to five units at a time, this is extemely useful for fine tuning the pH of a beaker.

PillBox Pill box

Inside the chemistry locker you will find boxes of pill bottles PillBoton some maps. These can be loaded with pills for inventory space efficiency, holding 7 patches or pills.

Buffer reagents

Buffers are reagents that alter the pH of a mixture towards acidity (0) or alkalinity (14). These liquids dissiplate into a mixture, unless stabilizing agent is added.

Reagent containers

It is important to note that strong acids/bases can melt most glass based beakers, while plastic beakers will melt from heat. They will melt slowly over time with a audiable noise. If you heat them melting, either drop the temperature or adjust the pH!

Bottles are small 30 unit containers made from a hardened mesh of glass and polymers, and thus don't melt from temperature or pH. These are produced by the ChemMaster 3000.

Glass Beakers holds 50/100 units of liquid depending on size, but begins to melt under strong acids (<1.5 pH) or bases (>12.5 pH). These can be printed from the autolathe.

XL beakers are made of plastic and hold 150 units of liquid. They are immune to pH, but will being to melt when containing liquids over 444K. These can be printed from the autolathe using plastic sheets.

Meta Beakers holds 200 units of liquid and is immune to pH and will not melt under high temperature. These can be printed from the autolathe when researched.

Cryostasis Beakers holds 50 units of liquid. Chemicals will not mix, react or change temperature while in this beaker. Splashing contained chemicals will not make them react either, as with all other beakers. This beaker is immune to pH and will not melt under high temperature. These can be printed from the autolathe when researched.

Bluespace beakers are the largest beakers and hold 300 units of liquid. These are weak to strong acids/bases, but have more durability than standard beakers. These can be printed from the autolathe when researched.

Water Bottles Can be made with plastic sheets. Works like a beaker but comes with a cap to prevent spilling. Toggle the cap with alt-click. Holds 50/100 units of liquid depending on side. Weak to strong acids/bases and temperatures over 444K.

Handling reactions

For a list of all reactions, see Chemical Reactions. Most reactions simply require each reagent to be present in the beaker in sufficient quantities in order to react, while a few require heating. If you are new, it窶冱 recommended to get used to the simpler reactions first, and stock the fridge full of helpful chemicals. A few of the reactions, however, are advanced reactions, which require a bit more consideration to produce successfully. A good chemist will keep an eye on a reactions temperature, pH and purity when producing chems.

Do like an otter, add acid to water.

Adding water to a strong acid (less then pH 2) is like adding fuel to a fire, and it will cause it to areolate into the air. Be careful to either add water first or neutralise your strong acids before adding water to your beaker.

Temperature

All reactions that are non-instant have a reaction rate tied to the temperature of a beaker. If a chemical is reacting too slowly, simply heat the beaker up to speed it up. As a reaction occurs, it is either Exothermic (heat producing) or Endothermic (heat consuming). Care should be taken for the Exothermic reactions, as they are liable to overheat and explode, Always check your reaction kinetics first, and in particular, take care around a reactions explosion temperature. The rate in which a reaction heats up is faster the hotter it is, be careful to not lose control, and run if you do.

Reaction explosions

Generally, an explosion will depend on what is reacting, and what is present in the beaker. Plasma for example will ignite when given a heat source, and thus should be treated with respect. A chemist that doesn't respect the chemicals they're handling, often ends up a dead chemist, be careful. As a general rule for explosions; the larger the volume, the more dangerous it is. As such, you can use large volumes of chems to adjust your pH, but if you fail the explosion is more dangerous. Alternatively, you can use buffers that adjust the pH, which self consume on addition (and thus do not add to the total volume).

Potential of Hydrogen (pH)

Every chemical has an innate pH, which can be seen here. The pH of the beaker is the sum of the pHes in the mix. The pH of a beaker determines how pure a product is, for the recipes with a given pH, you want to have your pH at the centre of the limits when the reaction starts. As a reaction progresses, it's likely the pH will begin to drift, and must be compensated for either with buffer reagents or acidic/alkaline compounds. The pH range is something chemists often have to learn over several reactions, and the ChemMaster 3000 analyse function can give an insight into what pH you should be aiming for. Highly impure compounds are liable to explode too thus it is prudent to set your pH before reacting. The impure explosion threshold is given by the Minimum Purity.

Purity

Purity of a reagent is determined by how pure your reactants were, and how optimal the pH was during the reaction. If the product is slightly impure, it'll split into the impure chem, if it is highly impure, it will invert all of the product into the inverse chem. Impure chems are listed here A good example of this is Synthetic derived growth factor, ingesting 10u SDGF at 0.8 purity will give you 8u SDGF and 2u SDGFTox, ingesting 10u SDGF at 0.4 purity (less than its InverseChemVal) will result in 10u SDZF. Reacting it at less than 0.2 purity will cause it to explode and produce a teratoma.

General tips

• The explosion size in influenced by the beakers volume. It is highly recommended that you react small quantities of reactants in a beaker to ensure safety. The more volume you have, the more that is available to exothermically react too. Buffers are useful for keeping a reactions volume low.
• Make sure your pH is correct before heating up the reaction, If it's not reacting, this is usually the problem, after the reaction has started however, it will keep going past the limits, producing 100% impure products.
• Take a note of how your pH changes across the reaction and adjust beforehand accordingly, or have some buffer handy to inject into the reaction in the middle of it.
• You can abort reactions by crashing the temperature and hoping it's not exothermic enough to overcome that anyways. Alternatively, you could throw the beaker in a panic.
• Upgrading the heater and the dispenser will improve their ability to detect pH.
• For some reactions, it can be useful to keep reagents away from each other until both of them have optimal conditions.
• Temperature of buffers will change the temperature of whatever you're adding it to! Make sure to not pour hot buffer into a temperature sensitive reaction!

Medicine types

Reagents can be dispenced as various different types:

Pill Pills are able to hold up to 50 units of reagents and apply their contained reagents via ingestion. If the pH of the pill is too high, it will damage the tongue of the patient, as such it is recommended to neutralise the pH with buffers or other reagents when dispensing.

Patch Patches are able to hold up to 40 units of reagent and apply via touch. The pH of a touching reagent has no damaging effects on patients, thus neutralisation is not necessary.

Bottle Bottles simply contain the liquid in a hardy storage, and can either be drunk (susceptible to burning the tongue) or injected.

Hypovials are used with hypospray, which either inject or spray the patient with the contained reagents for 5/10 units. These vials can hold up to 60 units.

Smoke is produced either by smoke reactions or vaping. Inhalation of a reagent mix with a strong acidity or alkalinity with cause tongue damage, and thus neutralisation is recommended.

Smart darts contain up to 20 units of reagent soaked into the mechanism (and thus cannot be removed). These darts will inject a chem right up to the overdose limit when shot into a patient using the Smartdart Gun. Unfortunately, it requires a high velocity to penetrate the skin, and thus cannot be used in hand.

Metabolism

When a reagent enters a body, it will then "tick" or "cycle" about every 2 seconds. When this happens the body is purged of an amount of every reagent depending on their metabolism rates. This is the rate at which the chemical disappears from your body. It doesn't matter how many chems you have in your body, as they are all metabolized separately. If you are hungry (sluggish), this will happen 20% slower, which makes chemicals have a bigger total effect since they last longer without being weaker per tick.

What should I make first?

Generally, it's a good idea to have something for each of the 5 main damage types; Brute, Burn, Toxin, Suffocation and Genetic.

Brute

• Bicard is a classic healing for brute, but has an OD at 30u.
• Styptic Powder heals on application and heals as fast as bicard, but is harder to make
• Salicyclic Acid is useful for really damaged patients.

Burn

• Kelotane is a classic healing for burn, but has an OD at 30u.
• Silver Sulfadiazine heals on application and heals as fast as bicard, but is harder to make
• Oxandrolone is useful for really damaged patients, but less so for weak burns.

Toxins

• Charcoal is good in a pinch, but will purge all other chems too.
• Anti-Toxin is good for toxins, and will purge any toxin reagents
• Pentetic Acid Is the fastest purger, toxic treatment, and also treats radiation.

Bear in mind all of these will murder slimes, as toxin healing damages slimepeople. For general purging of reagents, rather than treatment of toxin damage, use Calomel, which is also the only viable purger for slimes.

Oxygen

• Epinephrine Will limit oxygen loss to 35.
• Salbutamol Will treat oxygen loss.

Genetic

• Clonexadone when used in a cyrotube/cold shower will treat genetic damage.

Radiation

• Potassium Iodide
• Pentetic Acid Is the fastest purger, toxic treatment, and also treats radiation.
• Artificial Zeolite Treats radiation fastest, with no side effects, but is a fermi chem and thus somewhat tricky to make

Organ specific

After that, it's useful to create organ treatment chems; Mannitol for brain, Inacusiate for ears, Oculine for eyes, Synthflesh for prepping the dead for defibbing, and if you're feeling up to it, Yamerol for lungs and Synthtissue for grafting surgeries.

Medicines

"And that's how I lost my medical license!" Don't be this guy. Make these. Lots of these.

See Guide to Medicine for more information on what to use when.

Core Healing Medicines

These healing drugs form the "core" drugs used to heal the most common forms of damage. All other medical drugs outside of this section are either harder to make upgrades, or highly specific forms of healing for rarer situations.

Many reagents can be overdosed and/or cause addiction, leading to a negative outcome. Be sure to monitor how many units someone is injected with. If an overdose occurs, the negative effects will keep being applied every tick until that chemical is completely out of the system. If an addiction occurs, the negative effects will only start occuring some time after the chemical is out of the system, and can be negated by keeping taking it. You can usually only remove an addiction by waiting it out (or by dying and getting cloned).

Narcotics

Narcotics are highly addictive drugs that can aggressively, or passively, provide a benefit. Be wary as its very easy to become addicted, or overdose, on a narcotic.

As a general rule of thumb, the more of a positive effect (or any effect) a narcotic can provide, the easier it is to get addicted or overdose on it.

People who overdose or get addicted to Narcotics tend to usually end up dying to the negative effects or requiring immedient medical attention. Take in moderation.

Pyrotechnics

The manipulation of fire and matter.

Name	Recipe	Description	Metabolism Rate
Stabilizing Agent▮	1 part Iron 1 part Oxygen 1 part Hydrogen	When mixed with certain pyrotechnics, it stabilizes the reaction and prevents the reaction for usage later. The stabilizing agent is not consumed when stabilizing explosives, and one unit is enough to stabilize any amount of explosives. Also required to keep buffers from destroying theirselves. This does not work on everything, so be warned!	0.4 units per tick
Fluorosurfactant▮	2 parts Carbon 2 parts Fluorine 1 part Sulphuric Acid	Creates a large amount of foam when mixed with an equal amount of water. This foam carries any reagents along with it in the container, allowing you to apply reagents to large areas at a time. The foam will apply any carried reagents to any floors, objects, people or animals in the area of the foam. The reagents will be absorbed through a mob's exposed skin and somewhat through clothes unless completely impermeable(hardsuit/biohazard/medical gear). The less foam used, the more reagent will be delivered into a person's system. Foam is slippery! Can not react in a body.	0.4 units per tick
Smoke▮	1 part Phosphorous 1 part Potassium 1 part Sugar	This creates a large cloud of smoke that will take on the properties of everything (if anything) in the container of the reaction. The chemicals in the smoke will touch and react with everything that the smoke touches. Mobs caught within the smoke cloud without wearing a gas mask or breathing through a gas tank will ingest the smoke chemicals. Great for distributing toxins in a crowded area. Can be stabilized into Smoke Powder with Stabilizing Agent.	N/A
Smoke Powder▮	1 part Phosphorous 1 part Potassium 1 part Sugar 1 part Stabilizing Agent (catalyst)	The stabilized version of Smoke - only one third as effective as the unstabilized chemical reaction. Heat to 374K to activate. Can not react in a body.	0.4 units per tick

Phlogiston▮	1 part Phosphorus 1 part Sulphuric Acid 1 part Stable Plasma	Turns into a spreading plasma fire if not stabilized during mixing. Makes you burn longer, and ignites you. Deals increasing fire damage based on how much you're burning up to 4 fire damage every 3 seconds. Can be stabilized with Stabilizing Agent.	0.4 units per tick
Napalm▮	1 part Oil 1 part Welding Fuel 1 part Ethanol	A substance that burns for much longer than other fuels. Inject it into someone and then apply heat for a warm toasty fireball human.	0.4 units per tick
Sonic Powder▮	1 part Oxygen 1 part Cola 1 part Phosphorus	Deafens in a radius that scales up with the amount detonated. Can be stabilized with Stabilizing Agent. If stabilized, heat to 374K to activate.	0.4 units per tick
Pyrosium▮	1 part Stable Plasma 1 part Radium 1 part Phosphorus	When first mixed it becomes 20 Kelvin cold. Instantly consumes all liquid Oxygen to heat its container for each unit of Oxygen consumed. This does not expend the Pyrosium, so 1u will have the same effect as 50u. Does nothing whatsoever without being mixed with liquid Oxygen. Does not react with the oxygen in air. Can not react in a body.	0.2 units per tick
Cryostylane▮	1 part Water 1 part Stable Plasma 1 part Nitrogen	When first mixed it becomes 20 Kelvin cold. Instantly consumes all liquid Oxygen to cool its container for each unit of Oxygen consumed. This does not expend the Cryostylane, so 1u will have the same effect as 50u, unless you want to prevent it from metabolising out of a body too fast. Does nothing without being mixed with liquid Oxygen. Does not react with the oxygen in air. Deals toxin damage to slimes. Can not react in a body.	0.2 units per tick
Chlorine Trifluoride▮	3 parts Fluorine 1 part Chlorine Temperature 424K	When created it will create a temporary 3x3 fireball. Comes into existence at 1000K. A flammable substance so dangerous it can burn through the hull of the station. It lights you on fire when it comes into contact with you, and if it gets inside of you will deal 6 burn per tick from the inside. It metabolizes out of your body extremely fast, however.	4 units per tick
Sorium▮	1 part Carbon 1 part Mercury 1 part Nitrogen 1 part Oxygen	When detonated it will send any movable object or person flying away from the detonation point. Can be stabilized with Stabilizing Agent. If stabilized, heat to 474K to activate.	0.4 units per tick
Liquid Dark Matter▮	1 part Carbon 1 part Stable Plasma 1 part Radium	When detonated it will suck in any movable object or person. Can be stabilized with Stabilizing Agent. If stabilized, heat to 474K to activate.	0.4 units per tick
Meth Explosion▮	1 part Diethylamine 1 part Hydrogen 1 part Iodine 1 part Phosphorus Temperature 300K	Reagents are 300K (room temperature) by default, so if you are making Methamphetamine and mixing the Ephedrine last, make sure you're using a chilled container, or it'll blow up just as if it was overheated. Definitely safer to just make the ephedrine separately. Blows up with the same strength as Black Powder. Can not explode in a body.	N/A
Black Powder▮	1 part Charcoal 1 part Saltpetre 1 part Sulfur	When heated to 474K it sparks, and then creates a violent explosion 5-10 seconds later. Causes hallucinations in plasmamen.	0.05 units per tick

Explosion	1 part Potassium 1 part Water	This explodes immediately on mixing, which may knock you over or even kill you. Useful in grenade production.	N/A
Holy Explosion	1 part Potassium 1 part Holy Water	This explodes immediately on mixing. If it combined at least 75 of each reagent, it results in a more powerful explosion, which also paralyzes and reveals revenants and sets nearby cultists on fire. Otherwise it behaves like a normal Water-Potassium explosion. Much more efficient if less Potassium is used.	N/A
EMP	1 part Iron 1 part Uranium	This reacts immediately on mixing, creating an electromagnetic pulse which affects electronics nearby; very useful for causing chaos.	N/A
Bee Explosion (Beesplosion)	1 part Honey 1 part Strange Reagent 1 part Radium	Creates bees. 1 bee per 5 created volume. If mixed in a beaker or grenade containing other reagents, then every bee will contain one of those reagents. The bees from this reaction have a limited lifespan, and will die after 50 seconds.	N/A
Tesla Shock	1 part Teslium 1 part Water Or heating Teslium to 474K	This reacts immediately on mixing, shooting electric bolts at anyone near the reaction, shocking people and disabling/damaging electronics.	N/A
Thermite▮	1 part Aluminium 1 part Iron 1 part Oxygen	A mixture that can burn straight through walls or floors when splashed and ignited. Needed amount depends on target structure. Does not work on doors or windows. Causes 1 burn damage per tick to humans when ingested.	0.4 units per tick

Fermichem

A type of chemical unique to the server. Rather than reacting instantly like others, they react over time, making you have to make sure the pH of the mixture doesn't stray from the range to keep the purity high. For some, you also have to manage temperature so that they don't self-heat itself into exploding. Keeping the temperature in range is simple: just set the temperature on the heater to a low temperature. Keeping the pH stable involves using a dropper to take a low or high pH chem (usually acidic buffer or hydrogen to lower pH and alkaline buffer or diethylamine to raise pH) and insert it into the mix as it reacts (one can do this by just clicking the heater with the dropper). (Full list in progress)

Walkthrough of your first Fermireaction

A good first step onto the road to chemical mastery is to produce some basic buffer. Basic buffer will test your basic understanding of chemistry by asking for lye.

1. Add 1 part Lye, 2 parts ethanol, 2 parts water and at least 1u of sulphuric acid and 1u of stabilizing agent to a XL beaker (the beaker will resist the intense pH).
2. Dropper in 1u of Sulphuric acid.
3. Notice how your reaction is abysmally slow, and remember that heat = reaction rate!
4. Heat the beaker to 443K, as heating it above 444K will melt the beaker. If you're using a metabeaker, heat that bad boy up even more and give yourself a gold star.
5. Cool the beaker back down after the reaction.
6. Separate out the buffer.

You're now ready to react Eigenstasium.

1. Add the 3 reagents into a glass beaker in equal parts, while keeping total volume low incase of explosion.
2. Adjust your pH to 8 (the center of the range (2 - 14))
3. Heat the beaker to 355K
4. Remember that reaction rate = heat!
5. Remember that Eigenstasium is exothermic, and may get away from you if you're too keen.
6. Put your reaction rate to a sensible 450K, and watch it to ensure it doesn't get too close to the explosion temperature (650K). 6.5 If the reaction starts getting too hot, crash the temperature to 1K and pray it's not too late.
7. Adjust the pH during the reaction to keep it around 8 using a dropper or a syringe with basic buffer in.
8. Enjoy wiggly cosmic dust. (But don't OD!)

If you're able to make these two reactions successfully, you should be ready to tackle the other ones on your own. Bear in mind the others can be more difficult, and should be approached with a thoughtful demeanor. Also give yourself a headpat for doing so well!

Under the hood

First of all, there are actually 5 different ways of delivery, called ingest, inject, vapor, touch and patch. If you are not interested in the details, you can skip to Smoke vs Foam vs others.

• Ingest and inject both almost always do the exact same thing. The reagent simply enters the target's bloodstream. Used by pills, syringes, cigarettes, e-cigarettes, inhaling smoke and drinking the reagent directly.
• Vapor is used by (ranged) spray bottles and foam. A portion of the reagents will enter the bloodstream of the target, but clothes will protect from some/most/all of it depending on clothing. Any hardsuit typically makes the target completely immune to getting it into their bloodstream, if the helmet is closed. But if the reagent has a "vapor" based component, that component will still affect the target, like Fluorosulfuric Acid. See more about foam below, with examples.
• Touch is used by smoke and splashing. If the reagent has a "touch" based component, that component will affect the target (such as the instant heal part of Styptic Powder), without being blocked by clothing. Nothing at all will enter the target's bloodstream, with the exception of smoke if the target has no internals on. Currently all "touch" components are also "patch" components. See more on smoke below, with examples.
• Patch is used by patches and medical sprays. The reagent enters the target's bloodstream entirely AND if the reagent has a "patch" based component, that component will affect the target. Currently all "patch" components are also "touch" components.

When a reagent enters a bloodstream, it will then "tick" about every 2 seconds, depending on server lag. Each tick or "cycle" will cause the chemical to apply its effects, while removing the amount described under the metabolism-columns on this guide.

Smoke vs foam vs others

These are the major practical differences between pills, syringes, patches, cigarettes, smoke, foam, splash and spray.

• Pills: Can be instantly ingested if used on yourself. It doesn't work if mouth is covered. Plasmamen will have trouble taking these. If the pH of the pill is too high, it will damage the tongue of the patient. Holds up to 50u.
  

• Syringes: Can be injected into people with their mouths covered, either by hand or with a syringe gun. It doesn't work on players wearing hardsuits, or on people with pierce-immune skin (like Golems or Plasmamen), unless you use a piercing syringe or manage to aim for an exposed part of their body. Holds between 10-60u, depending on syringe. Common syringes hold 15u.
  

• Patches: Will apply all reagents into a person's bloodstream through any clothing, including hardsuits. Also apply touch/patch based effects. Example: A patch of 20u Styptic Powder will instantly heal 20 brute (touch component), and also enter the target's bloodstream for a long heal over time. Usable by plasmamen. Can hold up to 40u.
  

• Cigarettes: Can be dipped in reagents to be filled. If smoking/vaping, you will slowly ingest whatever reagents the cigarette/cigar/e-cig contains. Though, if the reagents are too diluted, they may not build up in your bloodstream fast enough to have any effect at all. E-cigarettes can be trimmed with a screwdriver and multitool to also create smoke.
  

• Smoke: When a smoke reaction occurs, the smoke will consume any other reagent in its original containers, and spread that reagent to flooring and people/mobs who enter its area of effect. People who enter the smoke will be touched by the reagents. If they do not have internals on, they will also ingest the reagents. The amount of smoke does not dilute the reagents. The reagents will be copied to every individual or tile (not walls, windows or doors) over the cloud's duration. Reagents that are special coded to affect floor/environment (such as blood, acid or Space Cleaner) will do so. Smoke will usually block sight.
  

Smoke example 1: Smoke containing 20u Styptic Powder. Everyone caught in the cloud, including people wearing hardsuits, will slowly heal 20 brute (and scream in pain), if they stay in the smoke for its full duration (otherwise they will heal partially). Those who are not wearing internals will also ingest 20u of the medicine, making it enter their bloodstream and start healing them over time. But since this particular medicine will deal toxin damage if not applied via touch/patch, those who inhale it will also start taking toxin damage.

Smoke example 2: Smoke containing 20u Chlorine Trifluoride(CLF3). CLF3 has a touch(and vapor) component, so everyone caught in the cloud, including people wearing hardsuits and internals, will catch on fire. It will also deal burn damage to the environment, since CLF3 is coded to do so. Those who are not wearing internals will also ingest 20u of the CLF3 and thus, start heating up from the inside, effectively burning from both in and out at the same time.

• Foam: When a foam reaction occurs, the foam will consume any other reagent in its original containers, and spread that reagent to flooring and people/mobs who enter its area of effect. The foam will spread slower than smoke and is usually slippery. Reagents will be copied through the vapor type delivery to those affected over the duration of the foam, BUT the reagents will be heavily diluted depending on the amount of foaming reagent used. Any clothing will reduce how much of the reagents will enter a person's bloodstream. Furthermore, foam reagent bloodstream insertion is divided into several 'ticks'. A minimum amount of reagent is required per tick for it to enter a bloodstream. So if too little reagents are contained in the reaction, or too much foam is used, the foam will do nothing. These ticks are counted after dilution and protection from clothing. On the other hand, if you use very small amounts of foam, the reagents may instead multiply in the bloodstream to more than the original amount. Hardsuits with helmets on will make people immune to getting reagents into their bloodstream through foam. Despite dilution, the foam will still copy remaining chems such as acid, CLF3, or Space Cleaner to any tile it touches (but not walls, windows or doors). Foam will not block sight.
  

Foam example 1: 250u foam containing 10u Cyanide will spread a blue foam that does nothing to those it touches. The poison is too diluted to work at all.

Foam example 2: 20u foam containing 250u Fluorosulfuric Acid. A small area and everyone touched by the foam will have large amounts of acid slowly melting their clothing and the affected floor and items. Those who did not wear a hardsuit with helmet on will also have a large amount of acid in their bloodstreams, depending on what they were wearing and how long they were in the foam. If they had internals on or not doesn't matter.

• Splashing: Throwing a beaker, or using a beaker on anything with harm intent, will splash its contents. The longer throw distance, the more the splash will spread out. A grenade will splash its content unless it also contains smoke or foam. Splashing only does touch delivery. This means most chemicals will do absolutely nothing when splashed. Reagents that have special properties to affect environment, such as Water, will do so where splashed (creates slippery tile). Reagents that have a touch component will apply that component only. Example: If you throw a beaker of 80u Synthflesh at someone, you will instantly heal them for 100 brute and burn, since Synthflesh is touch/patch based. It doesn't matter if the target uses hardsuit or internals in this case. Another example: If you throw a beaker of 100u Silver Sulfadiazine at someone, you will instantly heal them 100 burn. But none of the medicine will enter the bloodstream, so there won't be a heal over time. This means throwing a beaker of poison at someone will do nothing at all. Splashing can apply chemicals such as Thermite to walls.
  

• Spraying: Spraying reagents will apply them to environments (if they have any such effect), and will enter hit people's bloodstreams through the vapor delivery. This means clothing will protect from some/most/all of the reagents, depending on what they are wearing. Using a hardsuit with helmet on makes them immune to getting the reagent into their bloodstream. Reagents such as acid, CLF3, or Space Cleaner will still cause their special effects when sprayed on people/environments, but will not enter the bloodstream if the target is wearing too heavy clothing.
  
  

A final note: Many mobs are "simplemobs" which means they don't have a bloodstream and can thus not be poisoned/sedated. Monkeys and most playable humanoids are the exceptions to this.
