Re: Improve existing and introduce new chemical packaging options

Walk up to protolathe with miners alive and you got your normal-sized 1000u worth of plasma. You can even set it on fire! 2500u is bad because?.. 5u of lexorin will likely kill you. Every carbon around you is 1000u beaker. It's not like you put chembags into grenade casings.
