Grenade

From /VM/station wiki
Revision as of 08:52, 25 November 2013 by imported>Deantwo (→‎Use: Small fixes.)

Grenades are made of three things: Chemicals, trigger assemblies, and a crunchy candy coating (usually made of metal). When you arm them, the trigger sits there, waiting patiently for an excuse to go off, until finally the grenade primes, the chemicals mix, and whatever happens, happens.

Construction

  1. Obtain a Grenade Casing (regular or large), one to two bottles or beakers full of your payload (see below for ideas), an Igniter, and a trigger (Timer, Proximity Sensor, Mousetrap, Remote Signaling Device, Voice Analyzer, or Infrared Emitter).
    • You can create a slime core grenade by substituting a slime core for one of the bottles, but only when using a large Grenade Casing obtained from R&D. Be sure you have another bottle with the necessary reagent, or the slime core won't do anything!
  2. Use a screwdriver to ready the Igniter and trigger for assembly. When they are "can be attached", use one on the other to create an (trigger)-Igniter Assembly.
  3. Attach the (trigger)-Igniter Assembly to the Grenade Casing.
  4. Insert the bottles or breakers with your payload into the Grenade Casing. There will be no getting them back out, be sure you're happy with it.
  5. Screwdriver the grenade one more time to finish construction

For a list of possible chemical reactions, see the Guide to chemistry. Note that some reactions go off immediately when mixed, and must be separated into two bottles. Also note that slime cores are volatile, and when used in grenades, some reagents may be lost.

Legal Payload Ideas

Illegal Payload Ideas

Use

The grenade will be called different things depending on the trigger:

  • Grenade - Cable: Goes off after 5 seconds. Igniter not required
  • Grenade - Timer: Goes off after a certain time has elapsed
  • Contact Mine - Mousetrap: Goes off when stepped on
  • Proximity Mine - Proximity Sensor: Goes off when something moves adjacent (there is an arming period)
  • Remote Mine - Remote Signaling Device: Goes off when it receives the correct code via radio
  • Password Mine - Voice Analyzer: Goes off when the trigger word is said out loud.
  • Tripwire Mine - Infrared Emitter: When triggered, a laser beam (either invisible or red) will extend out in the direction the grenade is facing (it can be rotated before use). If that beam is disturbed, the grenade will go off.

Everything except the Contact Mine has options you can set with a Multitool once the grenade is completed. This lets you set the time on a grenade, set infrared lasers to visible, alter the signaler frequency, etc.

When the grenade goes off, the chemical beakers/bottles inside will mix their contents. If the mixture causes an effect (Smoke, an explosion, etc), it will happen at this time; otherwise, the resultant chemicals will be spread over everything in range. A grenade filled with Space Lube, for instance, will coat every nearby floor surface with slippery goop; a grenade filled with Mindbreaker Toxin will cause everyone unlucky enough to be in range to trip fucking balls.

Disarming

If you use a Multitool on a grenade, you will have access to the trigger assembly. Most will cause a dialog box to pop up with options, which will allow you to disarm a live grenade (or, potentially, set off an unarmed grenade).
