Chameleon projector is really strange #27805

Be Syndicate buy a Chameleon 7 tk projector Full health, pretending to be a chair or something else. Get hit. Now you can't disguise or do anything with it because only the code god knows how this item behaves. Make a bunch of clicks on object and pray for gods that you'll transform into one. Even if you have the lowest health level, you cannot disguise yourself as any object, but some objects can be used because ??? This item doesn't have any word about cooldown or something in uplink, that makes really unreliable If you buy a chameleon disguise kit and have the UI while you use chem projector, it will all disappear and then reappear after you turn back into a human, but it will all be in one place of the screen. Le solution It would be better to have the chem projector scan an object and remember it rather than have the agent transform into something, rather than having to take a cigarette or other junk into the backpack and then click on it. The current design of this item is highly questionable.

there is no cooldown the whitelist is items or anchorable objects, mobs and stuff are blacklisted

rewrite doesnt use polymorph so this doesnt happen
