Changing someone’s suit sensors works the same as pickpocketing, meaning it won’t alert the person of your actions unless it fails

On the very rare chance you find yourself full of cryptobiolin for whatever reason, inject an epi pen into yourself to instantly convert 15u of it into spaceacilin. Probably near-useless, but I’d like to imagine it may save someone’s life one day

Corazone not only prevents heart attacks, but it allows you to survive a liver failure as long as it’s in your system.

It metabolises whether your liver works or not though, and it does not allow for other reagents to metabolise - It only prevents the toxin damage.

Using a Multitool on a completed (but not active) cyborg shell allows you to modify some of its settings, such as the cyborgs name, camera state, AI lawsync, lock down, and more

Using a Multitool on an exposed wire shows you its current voltage and excess power.

Putting anything more powerful than the standard battery cell into lights will burn them out the moment you try to turn it on.

You can make an IV D drip into an Anesthetic Tank Holder by using a screwdriver on it while holding a breath mask in the other hand. The process is irreversible sadly, but you can destroy the Tank Holder to get the mask back.

Emagging/EMPing a defibrillator disables its safeties, indicated by the flashing red icon. This allows you to perform an instant knockdown while on disarm intent and a forced heart attack while on harm intent, which requires ~2-3 seconds of standing still.
Emagged medical cyborgs can’t do the knockdown but can induce the heart attack too.

Botany fact: You can give any plant 10 yield with roundstart items. Simply fill a fertilizer bottle with unstable mutagen and give it 1/2u doses to randomise the stats. With enough trial and error (2 minutes usually) you’ll get lucky and get 10 yield.

There are graphics settings in the game preferences.

Scaling should ideally be set to a constant multiple (1-2x) over stretch to fit and the algorithm should be point sampling. This will make your pixels VERY crisp. Parallax there actually changes how the background looks a lot.

You do need to be equipped to kill a hivelord, a basilisk and some goliaths though if you’ve been a miner, you should know how to do that since legions are watchers are just re-skinned hivelords and basilisks respectively. The goliaths have a different sprite on them, but it’s the same goliath as the regular ones, in fact you may have seen those as “elder goliaths” when that sprite was used for goliaths originally!

The cargo warehouse on kilo is annoying when its your contractor extraction point.

Also did you know you can make plastic in chemistry and turn it into large waterbottles to use as 100u beakers instead of wasting thousands of units of glass on large beakers when mass producing things.

Water bottles also have resealable caps, meaning you can further protect your fluids from accidental spillage or misuse by just putting the cap back on, this makes the bottle good for safe throwing as well, since the bottle doesn’t shatter and won’t spill if thrown haphazardly with the cap attached.

Refilling a water bottle and reusing it is also cool since we’ve all probably reused a disposable bottle before.

Fact from an ex-mentor: humans die if they don’t breathe oxygen.

Fact from an ex-mentor: The guy above me is lying.

Clarification, oxygen is the most commonly circulated gas that mobs and carbons* (player characters) breathe. HOWEVER pluoxium is the 4 times potency bigger meaner, atmos and engineering probably wont fusion or super matter synthesize, younger brother of oxygen.

(*plasmemes do not breathe exclusively plasma, surprising I know. )

breathing to much oxygen is still gonna kill you. infact refueling an airtank in an oxygen canister is going to basically ruins the airtank

If you mean the emergency oxygen tanks then you’re wrong. Most of the internals tanks around the station and in your box are filled with pure o2 at 17kPa output pressure. Putting an oxygen tank into an air mix can will actually ruin it becouse it needs an output pressure 4x higier for you to not suffocate. Filling an air mix tank with oxygen will actually quadruple the time you can breathe from it (if you adjust the output pressure accordingly).
