Revision as of 08:40, 22 July 2018 by imported>Angust (→Smoke vs foam vs others{{anchor|Smoke_vs_foam}}: Minor grammar.)
This guide will primarily be useful for chemists but may come in handy to any player and especially traitors. See Chemical recipes for a simplified version on how to make complicated chemicals. If you don't have a chem dispenser, see the Guide to Ghetto Chemistry.
Machinery
You have all sorts of chems here, and can make many things. You can make medicines, smoke, foam, flash powder, poisons, space lube, acid and much more. The limit on combinations is a limit that exists only in your creativity (and the game engine). Be sure to be careful though, as mixing the wrong chemicals can be bad for your health, and please make sure you know what a chemical does before you use it. Experiment at your own risk.
Some pure chemicals are lethal or will cause heavy toxin damage if injected or ingested in their pure form.
Chemistry Dispensers
Chem dispensers produce different chemicals depending on the manipulator installed.
Roundstart chem dispensers come with T3 chemicals and can be upgraded to unlock special properties.
Certain space and lavaland ruins also come with their own, special dispensers.

- Better matter bins: greater power efficiency per unit dispensed.
- Better capacitor: faster recharging speed.
- Better power cell: larger maximum power capacity.
- Better manipulator: longer and more complex chemistry macros can be performed. At tier 1 manips, macros round to the nearest 5u, then 3u at tier 2, 2u at tier 3 and 1u at tier 4.
Chemical Heater
Some chemical reactions will require you to heat the reagents in a Chemical Heater.
This machine will heat/cool a beaker to the desired temperature, slowing down the heating/cooling speed as it approaches the target temperature.
If you don't risk making the chemical explode by overheating it (such as Meth) you can just set it to a very high temperature to avoid this.
Upgrading the laser will increase the heating/cooling speed.
ChemMaster 3000 ChemMaster 3000
Separates, bottles, and makes pills/patches out of chemicals loaded inside. You can load pretty much any container - beakers, spray bottles, water bottles and so on.
Maximum size for dispensed bottles is 30u, pills/patches are 50u max.
Pill bottles can be loaded to directly dispense pills/patches into them.
All-In-One Grinder
Grinds, crushes, liquefies and extracts reagents from materials placed into it.
If there is a significant reagent associated with the item, the Reagent grinder will distill a pure sample inside the collection beaker.
For example: Plasma/gold/uranium/metal sheets, donk pockets, fruits, dead mice.
Smoke Machine
Dispenses any chemical inside as a smoke cloud. Needs to be secured by wrenching first.
A great alternative to smoke grenades, but easily incites lynch mobs.
Can only be obtained through the circuit board being printed, and the required parts being assembled first.
Upgradeable parts:
Click expand to see upgrades:
- Manipulator: Unlocks the higher range settings.
- Matter bin: Increases maximum capacity.
- Capacitor: Increases efficiency.
Active Pure Chemicals
A.K.A. what happens when you eat or splash these. Chemicals unmentioned don't have any effect.
- Chlorine: Causes minor physical damage to various body parts.
- Copper: Can be splashed on metal sheets to create bronze sheets.
- Ethanol: A decent alcoholic "beverage", with a booze power of 65. Increases success rate of surgery and flammability when applied externally.
- Fluorine: Causes minor toxin damage.
- Lithium: Causes twitching, drooling, moaning and not being able to walk straight.
- Mercury: Causes brain damage, twitching, drooling, moaning and not being able to walk straight.
- Radium: Causes irradiation.
- Sugar: Gives nutrition.
- Sulphuric Acid: Causes minor toxin damage and instant brute damage to one body part when ingested. Destroys head-wear and causes burn damage when sprayed on someone.
- Plasma: Causes major toxin damage.
- Uranium: Causes slight irradiation.

See Guide to Medicine for more information on what to use when.
Core Healing Medicines
These healing drugs form the "core" drugs used to heal the most common forms of damage. All other medical drugs outside of this section are either harder to make upgrades, or highly specific forms of healing for rarer situations.

Narcotics
Narcotics are highly addicitve drugs that can aggressively, or passively, provide a benefit. Be wary as its very easy to become addicted, or overdose, on a narcotic.
As a general rule of thumb, the more of a positive effect (or any effect) a narcotic can provide, the easier it is to get addicted or overdose on it.
People who overdose or get addicted to Narcotics tend to usually end up dying to the negative effects or requiring immedient medical attention. Take in moderation.
| Name | Recipe | Description | Metabolism Rate | Overdose Threshold | Addiction Threshold |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Nicotine▮ | Grown in tobacco or found in cigarettes. | Slightly reduces stun times. | 0.2 units per tick | N/A | 30 Units |
| Krokodil▮ | 1 part Diphenhydramine 1 part Morphine 1 part Space Cleaner 1 part Phosphorus 1 part Potassium 1 part Welding Fuel Temperature 390K |
Provides messages of calmness and protection. If overdosed it will deal significant Brain and Toxin damage. If addicted too it will begin to deal fatal amounts of Brute damage as the addict's skin falls off. |
0.2 units per tick | 20 Units | 15 Units |
| Crank▮ | 1 part Diphenhydramine 1 part Ammonia 1 part Lithium 1 part Sulphuric Acid 1 part Welding Fuel Temperature 390K |

0.2 units per tick | 20 Units | 10 Units |
| Methamphetamine▮ | 1 part Ephedrine 1 part Hydrogen 1 part Iodine 1 part Phosphorus Temperature 374K |
Reduces stun times by about 300% and allows the user to quickly recover stamina while dealing a small amount of Brain damage. If overdosed the subject will move randomly, laugh randomly, drop items and suffer from Toxin and Brain damage. If addicted the subject will constantly jitter and drool, before becoming dizzy and losing motor control and eventually suffer heavy toxin damage. A great deal of caution must be taken when heating this chemical, as it will explode if it reaches a temperature of or greater than 380K. Can not explode in a body. |
0.3 units per tick | 20 Units | 10 Units |
| Bath Salts▮ | 1 part Saltpetre 1 part Space Cleaner 1 part Bad Food 1 part Enzyme 1 part Nutriment 1 part Tea 1 part Mercury Temperature 374K |
Makes the subject impervious to stuns and grants a stamina regeneration buff, however the subject will suffer Brain damage, constant hallucinations and will lose some motor control. If overdosed the subject will lose even more motor control, drool, and drop items in their hand. If addicted the subject will suffer very severe Brain damage, severe hallucinations, complete loss of motor control and eventually fatal amounts of Toxin damage. |
0.2 units per tick | 20 Units | 10 Units |
| Aranesp▮ | 1 part Epinephrine 1 part Atropine 1 part Morphine |

0.2 units per tick | 30 Units | 25 Units |
Pyrotechnics
The manipulation of fire and matter.
| Name | Recipe | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Stabilizing Agent▮ | 1 part Iron 1 part Oxygen 1 part Hydrogen |
When mixed with certain pyrotechnics, it stabilizes the reaction and prevents the reaction for usage later. The stabilizing agent is not consumed when stabilizing explosives, and one unit is enough to stabilize any amount of explosives. This does not work on everything, so be warned! |
| Fluorosurfactant▮ | 2 parts Carbon 2 parts Fluorine 1 part Sulphuric Acid |
Creates a large amount of foam when mixed with an equal amount of water. This foam carries any reagents along with it in the container, allowing you to apply reagents to large areas at a time. The foam will apply any carried reagents to any walls, floors, objects, or people and animals in the area of the foam. The reagents will be absorbed through a mob's exposed skin and somewhat through clothes unless completely impermeable(hardsuit/biohazard/medical gear). The less foam used, the more reagent will be delivered into a person's bloodstream. Foam is slippery! Can not react in a body. |
| Smoke▮ | 1 part Phosphorous 1 part Potassium 1 part Sugar |
This creates a large cloud of smoke that will take on the properties of everything (if anything) in the container of the reaction. The chemicals in the smoke will touch and react with everything that the smoke touches. Mobs caught within the smoke cloud without wearing a gas mask or breathing through a gas tank will ingest the smoke chemicals. Great for distributing toxins in a crowded area. Can be stabilized into Smoke Powder with Stabilizing Agent. |
| Smoke Powder▮ | 1 part Phosphorous 1 part Potassium 1 part Sugar 1 part Stabilizing Agent (catalyst) |
The stabilized version of Smoke - only one third as effective as the unstabilized chemical reaction.Heat to 374K to activate. Can not react in a body. |
| Flash Powder▮ | 1 part Aluminium 1 part Potassium 1 part Sulfur |
Flashes in a radius that scales up with the amount detonated. Can be stabilized with Stabilizing Agent. If stabilized, heat to 374K to activate. |
| Phlogiston▮ | 1 part Phosphorus 1 part Sulphuric Acid 1 part Stable Plasma |
Turns into a spreading plasma fire if not stabilized during mixing. Makes you burn longer, and ignites you. Deals increasing fire damage based on how much you're burning up to 4 fire damage every 3 seconds. Can be stabilized with Stabilizing Agent. Does not react immediately. |
| Napalm▮ | 1 part Oil 1 part Welding Fuel 1 part Ethanol |
A substance that burns for much longer than other fuels. Inject it into someone and then apply heat for a warm toasty fireball human. |
| Sonic Powder▮ | 1 part Oxygen 1 part Cola 1 part Phosphorus |
Deafens in a radius that scales up with the amount detonated. Can be stabilized with Stabilizing Agent. If stabilized, heat to 374K to activate. |
| Pyrosium▮ | 1 part Stable Plasma 1 part Radium 1 part Phosphorus |
When first mixed it becomes 20 Kelvin cold. Instantly consumes all liquid Oxygen to heat its container for each unit of Oxygen consumed. This does not expend the Pyrosium, so 1u will have the same effect as 50u, unless you want to prevent it from metabolising out of a body too fast. Does nothing whatsoever without being mixed with liquid Oxygen. Does not react with the oxygen in air. Can not be created in a body. |
| Cryostylane▮ | 1 part Water 1 part Stable Plasma 1 part Nitrogen |
When first mixed it becomes 20 Kelvin cold. Instantly consumes all liquid Oxygen to cool its container for each unit of Oxygen consumed. This does not expend the Cryostylane, so 1u will have the same effect as 50u, unless you want to prevent it from metabolising out of a body too fast. Does nothing without being mixed with liquid Oxygen. Does not react with the oxygen in air. Deals toxin damage to slimes. Can not be created in a body. |
| Chlorine Trifluoride▮ | 3 parts Fluorine 1 part Chlorine Temperature 424K |
When created it will create a temporary 3x3 fireball. Comes into existence at 1000K. A flammable substance so dangerous it can burn through the hull of the station. It lights you on fire when it comes into contact with you, and if it gets inside of you will burn you from the inside out. It metabolizes out of your body extremely fast, however. |
| Sorium▮ | 1 part Mercury 1 part Oxygen 1 part Nitrogen 1 part Carbon |
When detonated it will send any movable object or person flying away from the detonation point. Can be stabilized with Stabilizing Agent. If stabilized, heat to 474K to activate. |
| Liquid Dark Matter▮ | 1 part Stable Plasma 1 part Radium 1 part Carbon |
When detonated it will suck in any movable object or person. Can be stabilized with Stabilizing Agent. If stabilized, heat to 474K to activate. |
| Meth Explosion▮ | 1 part Diethylamine 1 part Iodine 1 part Phosphorus 1 part Hydrogen Temperature 300K |
Reagents are 300K (room temperature) by default, so if you are making Methamphetamine and mixing the Ephedrine last, make sure you're using a chilled container, or it'll blow up just as if it was overheated. Definitely safer to just make the ephedrine separately. Blows up with the same strength as Black Powder. Can not explode in a body. |
| Black Powder▮ | 1 part Charcoal 1 part Saltpetre 1 part Sulfur |
Sparks, and then creates a violent explosion when heated to 474K. Causes hallucinations in plasmamen. |
| Nitroglycerin▮ | 1 part Glycerol 1 part Fluorosulfuric Acid 1 part Sulphuric Acid |
A heavy, colourless, oily, explosive liquid obtained by nitrating glycerol. Explodes immediately on mixing. Can be stabilized with Stabilizing Agent. If stabilized, heat to 474K to activate. (Results in 2 units instead of 3) |
| Explosion | 1 part Potassium 1 part Water |
This explodes immediately on mixing, which may knock you over or even kill you. Only useful in grenade production. |
| Holy Explosion | 1 part Potassium 1 part Holy Water |
This explodes immediately on mixing. If it combined at least 75 of each reagent, it results in a more powerful explosion, which also paralyzes and reveals revenants and sets nearby cultists on fire. Otherwise it behaves like a normal Water-Potassium explosion. Much more efficient if less Potassium is used. |

Reagent Delivery Methods
There are different ways you can apply chemicals to a person or the environment.
Under the hood
First of all, there are actually 5 different ways of delivery, called ingest, inject, vapor, touch and patch. If you are not interested in the details, you can skip to Smoke vs Foam vs others.
- Ingest and inject both currently do the exact same thing. The reagent simply enters the target's bloodstream. Used by pills, syringes, cigarettes, e-cigarettes, inhaling smoke and drinking the reagent directly.
- Vapor is used by (ranged) spray bottles and foam. A portion of the reagents will enter the bloodstream of the target, but clothes will protect from some/most/all of it depending on clothing. Any hardsuit typically makes the target completely immune to getting it into their bloodstream, if the helmet is closed. But if the reagent has a "vapor" based component, that component will still affect the target, like Fluorosulfuric Acid. See more about foam below, with examples.
- Touch is used by smoke and splashing. If the reagent has a "touch" based component, that component will affect the target (the instant heal part of Styptic Powder), without being blocked by clothing. Nothing at all will enter the target's bloodstream, with the exception of smoke if the target has no internals on. Currently all "touch" components are also "patch" components. See more on smoke below, with examples.
- Patch is used by patches and medical sprays. The reagent enters the target's bloodstream entirely AND if the reagent has a "patch" based component, that component will affect the target. Currently all "patch" components are also "touch" components.
Smoke vs foam vs others
These are the major practical differences between pills, syringes, patches, cigarettes, smoke, foam, splash and spray.
- Pills: Can be instantly ingested if used on yourself. It doesn't work if mouth is covered. Plasmamen will have trouble taking these. Holds up to 50u.
- Syringes: Can be injected into people with their mouths covered. It doesn't work on players wearing hardsuits, unless you use a piercing syringe or manage to aim for an exposed part of their body. Holds between 10-60u, depending on syringe.
- Patches: Will apply all reagents into a person's bloodstream through any clothing, including hardsuits. Also apply touch/patch based effects. Example: A patch of 20u Styptic Powder will instantly heal 20 brute (touch component), and also enter the target's bloodstream for a long heal over time. Usable by plasmamen. Can hold up to 40u.
- Cigarettes: Can be dipped in reagents to be filled. If smoking/vaping, you will slowly ingest whatever reagents the cigarette/cigar/e-cig contains. Though, if the reagents are too diluted, they may not build up in your bloodstream fast enough to have any effect at all. E-cigarettes can be trimmed with a screwdriver and multitool to also create smoke.
- Smoke: When a smoke reaction occurs, the smoke will consume any other reagent in its original containers, and spread that reagent to flooring and people/mobs who enter its area of effect. People who enter the smoke will be touched by the reagents. If they do not have internals on, they will also ingest the reagents. The amount of smoke does not dilute the reagents. The reagents will be copied to every individual or tile (not walls, windows or doors) over the cloud's duration. Reagents that are special coded to affect floor/environment (such as blood, acid or Space Cleaner) will do so. Smoke will usually block sight.
Smoke example 1: Smoke containing 20u Styptic Powder. Everyone caught in the cloud, including people wearing hardsuits, will slowly heal 20 brute (and scream in pain), if they stay in the smoke for the its full duration (otherwise they will heal partially). Those who are not wearing internals will also ingest 20u of the medicine, making it enter their bloodstream and start healing them over time. But since this particular medicine will deal toxin damage if not applied via touch/patch, those who inhale it will also start taking toxin damage.
Smoke example 2: Smoke containing 20u Chlorine Trifluoride(CLF3). CLF3 has a touch(and vapor) component, so everyone caught in the cloud, including people wearing hardsuits and internals, will catch on fire. It will also deal burn damage to the environment, since CLF3 is coded to do so. Those who are not wearing internals will also ingest 20u of the CLF3 and thus, start heating up from the inside, effectively burning from both in and out at the same time.
- Foam: When a foam reaction occurs, the foam will consume any other reagent in its original containers, and spread that reagent to flooring and people/mobs who enter its area of effect. The foam will spread slower than smoke and is usually slippery. Reagents will be copied through the vapor method to those affected over the duration of the foam, BUT the reagents will be heavily diluted depending on the amount of foaming reagent used. Any clothing will reduce how much of the reagents will enter a person's bloodstream. Furthermore, foam reagent bloodstream insertion is divided into several 'ticks'. A minimum amount of reagent is required per tick for it to enter a bloodstream. So if too little reagents are contained in the reaction, or too much foam is used, the foam will do nothing. These ticks are counted after dilution and protection from clothing. On the other hand, if you use very small amounts of foam, the reagents may instead multiply in the bloodstream to more than the original amount. Hardsuits with helmets on will make people immune to getting reagents into their bloodstream through foam. Also, foam will not dilute reagent's effects on environment. So, similarly to smoke, foam will copy acid, CLF3, or Space Cleaner to any tile it touches (but not walls, windows or doors). Foam will not block sight.
Foam example 1: 250u foam containing 10u blood with a virus. The floor will be dirtied by blood, but none of those touched by the foam will have their bloodstreams affected, since the blood was too diluted.
Foam example 2: 20u foam containing 250u Fluorosulfuric Acid. A small area and everyone touched by the foam will have large amounts of acid slowly melting their clothing and the affected floor and items. Those who did not wear a hardsuit with helmet on will also have a large amount of acid in their bloodstreams, depending on what they were wearing and how long they were in the foam. If they had internals on or not doesn't matter.
- Splashing: Throwing a beaker, or using a beaker on something with harm intent, will splash its contents. The longer throw distance, the more the splash will spread out. Splashing only does touch delivery. This means most chemicals will do absolutely nothing when splashed. Reagents that have special properties to affect environment, such as Water, will do so where splashed (creates slippery tile). Reagents that have a touch component will apply that component only. Example: If you throw a beaker of 90u Synthflesh at someone, you will instantly heal them for 90 brute and burn, since Synthflesh is touch/patch based. It doesn't matter if the target uses hardsuit or internals in this case. Another example: If you throw a beaker of 100u Silver Sulfadiazine at someone, you will instantly heal them 100 burn. But none of the medicine will enter the bloodstream, so there won't be a heal over time. This means throwing a beaker of poison at someone will do nothing at all.
- Spraying: Spraying reagents will apply them to environments (if they have any such effect), and will enter directly hit people's bloodstreams through the vapor method. This means clothing will protect from some/most/all of the reagents, depending on what they are wearing. Using a hardsuit with helmet on makes them immune to getting the reagent into their bloodstream. Reagents such as acid, CLF3, or Space Cleaner will still cause their special effects when sprayed on people/environments, but will not enter the bloodstream if the target is wearing too heavy clothing.
A final note: Many mobs are "simplemobs" which means they don't have a bloodstream and can thus not be poisoned/sedated. Monkeys and most playable humanoids are the exceptions to this.
