Bartender traitor item: Box of Booze Grenades. #592

About The Pull Request

Adds a "Box of Booze Grenades" for bartender traitors! This box is available for 4 TC, requires 300 reputation (like every other weapon), and contains 5 special "booze grenades".

These grenades can be filled with up to 50u of booze (any subtype of /datum/reagent/consumable/ethanol), and will not accept anything else. When detonated, they create a cloud of smoke, identical in size to that created by a smoke grenade, containing the booze poured into it. This means that anyone standing in the cloud will be filled with your insidious drinks, proportionate to how long they stay in the cloud. What, exactly, you can do with this is left as an exercise for the traitor.

Why It's Good For The Game

Bartenders were one of six jobs with no job-restricted traitor items at all. This item gives them something unique that ties in with what their job does best, which they can use to cause harm, mayhem, or simply provide a quick mood boost to fellow traitors. There's a lot of drinks in this game with weird effects, so you can get creative.

Functionally, this item is pretty similar to simply making a chem grenade in chemistry, but with the benefit that generally, it's going to be very suspicious if you try to get a chemist to help you make a Bacchus's Blessing grenade. Now you can simply do it on your own!

The item is reputation-restricted due to the potential for mayhem that would be inappropriate when the round's just begun.

Depending on how effective this item turns out to be, it may need tweaking - to price, capacity, or the specifics of the smoke itself. We'll figure it out.
