Buffs Experimentor

[ArcLumin]

Original relics, that is, not the chaplain kind.

Gives initial BTC to the experimentor (chance for good shit to happen, naturally at 0 so good things never happen until you boost it which can take 30 minutes for 1%) Slightly reduces reset time Adds BTC to the better options so it doesn't take half the round for the good shit to happen Removes crit reaction req Reduces powerdrain on one failure (this would make the room basically unusable before) Reduces RNG on relic CD Pet spawning relic doesn't QD on failure, but the failure chance has been increased from 60% to 80%. Cooldown still in effect. Explosive relic is reusable (so long as you survive, which you prolly won't, even though it's a small explosion)

Remember, the explosive needs to be in your hands to work; it's only usable as an ahallu akbar

[KayeArray]

explosive + bombsuit = fun

[ArcLumin]

It's still a pretty small explosion, but yeah, that's why I wanted it.

[KayeArray]

how abut u git smart

[ArcLumin]

BTC is BadThingCoeff CD is cooldown

[ArcLumin]

If you can't understand this then you've never used experimentor

[blobbernaut]

:what:

[ArcLumin]

das me

[ghost]

heck yeah experimentor is otherwise kuso +1

[JohnMcLaime]

Experimentor is fucking garbage, some rp kiddo thought it would be a good idea to give it such limited shitty use. Also the shitcode of it which lets you dupe items (?)

[KittyKathy]

Hey uh so this light grenade can be used with TK from range to allah snackbar chumps?

[JohnMcLaime]

That would be hilarious.

[ArcLumin]

They're slow, (wind up time) have an obvious message, very small explosion, and a cooldown. A potass/water nade collection is easier to get with a similar outcome. And no. There's a check after the windup. The user and the item need to be in the same place

I'm having a hard time understanding the exploding relic code this is it as it is now. explosion(user.loc, -1, rand(1,5), rand(1,5), rand(1,5), rand(1,5), flame_range = 2) This is the explosion proc as it is now. /proc/explosion(turf/epicenter, devastation_range, heavy_impact_range, light_impact_range, flash_range, adminlog = 1, ignorecap = 0, flame_range = 0 ,silent = 0)

So the first argument is the location the second is devastation range as in gib range set to -1 so it does not gib or destroy items always. Third argument is heavy impact range which is random from 1 to 5 same for the light impact and flash range. Why is the sixth argument random from 1 to 5 when that should be admin log which should be 0 for no log or 1 to log it?

Only makes sense if it was originally. explosion(user.loc, rand(1,5), rand(1,5), rand(1,5), rand(1,5), flame_range = 2) Yes a random devastation range is probably op and would destroy the object that caused the explosion too so no light grenade.

Also this is a small explosion in the sense of range but in terms of power it is random but capable of doing more damage than a 100 water + 100 potassium grenade which is I think Devastation: 0 Heavy: 2 Light: 5. No random from 1 to 5 flame range why. maybe rewriting it to this would be better with probably lower range than 5. explosion(user.loc, -1, rand(1,5), rand(1,5), rand(1,5), flame_range = rand(1,5))

Another thing is the excessive admin warning like it calls warn_admins every time a relic is used even the useless/harmless ones like Rapid duplicator, Corgi Cannon, Teleport and the one to make a cleaner grenade effect is called Smoke???

[KittyKathy]

Oh wait only certain ones are priority which they actually see real time I think.

[ArcLumin]

Yeah, experimenter code is weird as fuck.

[ArcLumin]

Code review then this is good to merge
