bring back the refillable sleepypens/chempens!

Post by Tokiko2 » #15154

Can we get them back?

They're basically a disguised traitor hypospray that comes with some free sleeptoxin. The sleeptoxin is pretty useless but the main use of the pen is the ability to fill it with other reagents and inject these into people instantly without the syringe delay. Would greatly improve botanist traitoring because you'd actually get to inject all those poisons from your plants into people easily.

Edit: Coded in and it works! Added an unofficial poll about if you guys want to see it ingame or not and if yes, which version of it. Even if it passes I'll make another poll for the pull request.

Here's the stats for reference:
Cost: 5TC
Maximum chem amount: 30u
Injects per stab: 10u
Refillable.

Sleepypens were refillable. Para-pens are not. They are separate items. Don't know if sleepy-pens are in the code.

Please no refillable parapens. Sleepy pens were always more expensive than parapens either way and I'd rather not see people encouraged to buy parapens.

how about how about if you use a screwdriver on a normal pen you remove the compartement inside/rework the insides and it allows you to put like 5u of a chemical and inject it to people.

You can already use syringe guns to shoot death syringes at people at range. Or feed them 50u death pills if they slip near you. If you make a deadly reagent mix and spend 5 TC on a sleepypen, then you certainly deserve the kill, especially since said person will yell over the radio while they slowly die.

Also compare that to other traitor items we already have like ebows or eswords.

Hyposprays go through armor and thick jackets, parapens too.

Syringes do not. If we ever port /tg/'s mask code, you can't feed people through masks and helmets either, so you can't slip them pills when they slip.

Incorrect. Hypos and parapens are blocked by armor and jackets just like syringes.

I'm sure we took this change out because it's a terrible change that makes using poisons for traitoring impractical and encourages the other overdone assasination methods instead.

Okay I agree it was overzealous and not being able to eat through gas masks and stuff sucked but eating raisins through space helmets is still silly as fuck, riot helmets should protect you from forcefeeding as well.

Also my bad on the hypospray thing, I tested it on the HOS coat and apparently the HoS coat isn't immune to parapens and stuff for some retarded reason.

there was this one time dante used a refillable instant inject parapen to great effect, which was probably why a non-refillable pen was given to traitors instead

even taking into consideration the fact that you need to get lethal chems in the first place, a refillable, possible insta-crit weapon with a small inconspicuous sprite with no public action message does seem a bit op.

People don't seem to want to consider the possibility of someone walking around with 5 beakers of the mix and just shooting up everyone they see with it and running off, effectively killing half the station. With the sanic speed like it is on arty, it just doesn't seem like a good combo to me.

You have to be in melee range to do that however and there's only one reagent that prevents anyone from yelling ";Help person X has a chempen!!!" which is zombiepowder. Again, the syringe gun can already shoot lethal doses of chems at people and works at range.

Um, you can dodge syringes and you have to reload syringe guns and the only thing better is a rapid syringe gun and that's still only 15u when the parapen is 50u. If you miss a syringe gun shot you wasted it, but you can just clickspam with the pen and sonic around, like I said.

Plus the sleepypen has a smaller/less conspicuous inhand...

Yes, it is unconspicious and can be deadly with the right mix. That is the point and the reason why you would buy this item over something like an esword.

Yes, you can kill the entire station with it, theoretically. Realistically, it's much different. Unless you are in a huge crowd, the injected people are going to call you out on comms. People can wear bio, bomb, rad, space or rig suits to completely counter your death pen if they hear about a rampage, which isn't possible with something like an esword. Security does not even need to get into melee range to fight you.

How does 6 TC for a pen that can hold 30u of reagents and inject 10u per stab sound?

Well, the difference between stungloves and sleepypens is that one is only avaible from a traitor uplink while the other one can be made by anyone.

Also ColonicAcid, there's already items which transfer 5u of reagents directly into someone with no delay: Droppers. I've yet to see people start a rampage with a dropper.

Also ColonicAcid, there's already items which transfer 5u of reagents directly into someone with no delay: Droppers. I've yet to see people start a rampage with a dropper.
Pretty sure because most people have eyeglasses / something to block their eyes. While injectors / sleepy pen / parapen go through everything instantly.

Incorrect. Hypos and parapens are blocked by armor and jackets just like syringes.

Hypos and parapens are not blocked by armor and jackets, neither are syringes. Only biosuits and space suits. Why are you empty quoting?

Coded this and I'm probably going to add this along with my chem expansion when I figure out how this git thing works.

I need some input on the stats of it though. Here's how it currently looks:

Costs 5 TC.
Can hold 30u of reagents.
Injects 10u per stab.(Maybe 15u?)
Refillable.

I'm not sure about the reagent that I should put in. Sleeptoxin is really, really poor, might as well just leave it empty. Chloral would be decent but might be considered too strong.

I could also fill it with one/multiple of the new poisons I coded. Here's the poisons I would consider for this:

Chiyanine: A delayed poison that does nothing for 4 minutes and then causes severe poison damage(similar to how much plasma does currently).
This could be very fun, considering that you can stab people with a regular pen. They'd be unable to tell if they've been poisoned or if it was just a regular pen...unless they go to medbay and check or consume antitoxin as a precaution. Probably really good at being stealthy and useful to people without access to chem/botany too.

Shiminzine: A poison that damages vision.
Blindpen basically. Put on a mask, stab your target then finish them off when they're blind and helpless.

Added a poll, please vote. Not an official merge poll, just something to see if people actually want this.

I'll add a poison kit traitor item along with the new poisons.

To be honest, I don't like the idea of a silencing chem because if you combine this with beepsky smash or neurotoxin, you get pseudo zombiepowder... I guess a delayed muting poison could work but then I'd rather have that avaible in the poison kit or botany instead of having it start with the pen.

It's just that currently the only way to silence your target is either to parapen them or EMP them. I disapprove of both. I just liked the idea of a muting chemical overall. Oh well.

^

The reason parapen is such a crutch is because it silences. There's no real way to prevent someone screaming for help outside of comms down, EMP, or parapen. The stun-stutter interuppting radio is good, I guess, kinda, but it's unreliable.

I am likely going to include a muting poison in my poison expansion, but not this pen though.

Remember to give it a ghetto-chem (Bartender?) equivalent.
