Bluespace Grenade Casings

Post by Anonmare » #94765

I don't know if this has been suggested before, and quite frankly I'm not trawling through pages to find Urist McSuggestion's previous posting.

It's essentially what it says on the tin, it's to grenade casings what the bluespace beaker is to beakers and I think it could be used for shenanigans. Like stuffing so much flash powder into the casing and making flashbangs that can stun you even with eye and ear protection or EMP grenades that turn off a significant portion of the station. Basically, add more variety to powerful explosives that aren't limited to those made with plasma.
As for research, I think it would be on the same level as bluespace beakers due to them fundamentally functioning the same way.

You can already put bluespace beakers in normal grenade casings (potassium-water is a maxcap bomb if you use bluespace beakers). How about if a bluespace grenade casing could hold more beakers than usual?

the Bag of Holding clearly demonstrates what happens if you put bluespace into bluespace

so putting bluespace beakers into a bluespace grenade should have some kind of disastrous effect (not quite a singularity though, maybe the thing just collapses upon itself and turns into grey goo)

on the arrival shuttle, I saw the iconic toolbox on the ground. I clubbed myself in the head with it trying to figure out the controls.
Setting the tool box, now bloodied, back on the table; I went to heal myself with a medkit. I clubbed myself in the head with that too.
I've come a long ways from asking how to switch hands.

Tele-man somehow dies and gets its looted by an atmos tech who managed to use it to send two nuke ops to lavaland, who were then surrounded by several very angry people from earlier and some extra golems on top of it.

it should explode, even past maxcap.

just make the bluespace grenade casing able to hold objects of literally any size and maybe increase it's capacity a little bit
if placed into a bag of holding it melts into radioactive goo, destroying anything inside it and irradiating bystanders
i sure as hell don't know what purpose it would serve, maybe stuff a few fire extinguishers in there as well as some water-potassium to make a fire-exitnguisher-launcher grenade?
you know at least one person will have a blast with it
i play Lauser McMauligan. clown name is Cold-Ass Honkey
i have three other top secret characters as well.

A lot of reactions don't actually scale, so using up a lot of reagents expecting to see an amazing reaction will leave you rather disappointed.

Not foam though. Foam scaling is amazing.

smoke is one of the few that doesn't.
Feel free to run all your smoke grenades with 1u of each smoke ingredient to maximise space.

Well, smoke got nerfed to shit so, just use foam.

No, use both, so you can assblast people near the grenade with the instant smoke, then wipe them out/get everyone else with the slower foam which comes afterwards
