Nerf thermite

[Maroonenahmoron]

Have you noticed how piss easy it is to go through any wall in the station if you have three basic chemicals and a shitty lighter on your hand? I sure have. Reinforced walls are a joke if you splash some onto it and just shake a light at it.

Real thermite takes a fuckton of heat to work, so why not make the best welders (refueling+abductor) allow it to burn through? If you don't have one of those fancy welders, make an ignition mix.

The ignition mix could be made out of an existing chemical Glycerol (ground up corn and some acid) and Potassium Permanganate (potassium, oxygen + new base chem manganese) or frozen magnesium.

I can totally understand if the mix is not viable, but if you're working with chemicals that can reach a scorching 1,500 Celsius you have to wear at least some equipment so you don't get torched. Make it something like a fire suit or any hardsuit at all.

Bring back hacking and no more slacking.
