PRIORITY: Medium

Non-Lethal Weapons

Firearms and Projectiles

Disabler
Disabler
  • Found in: On Security Officers
  • Used for: Subjugating criminals.
  • Strategy: Use it to stun fleeing suspects
Description

Your standard-issue sidearm is issued to all security officers. They can be ordered at the Security order console or from Cargo Bay. Disablers are used for non-lethal takedown. When hitting your target, the left mouse fires a bolt that deals 25 stamina damage.

DRAGnet
DRAGnet
  • Found in: Armory
  • Used for: Slowing and teleporting people.
  • Strategy: Shoot people with it.
Description

The "Dynamic Rapid-Apprehension of the Guilty" net is a revolution in law enforcement technology. It has two settings: One (snare) which places energy snares, which act like bear traps without the damage, and another (netting) that shoots shotgun-like bursts of projectiles which deal heavy stamina damage and place "nets" when they hit a person. About 4 seconds after appearing, these "nets" will teleport any mob standing on top of them, to whichever location any existing "teleporter control console" is set to (with some variation). The teleporter control console target must both be set AND the "teleporter station" must have been clicked to "engage" the teleporter, for it to count. Calibration is not required.

If 3 different teleporters (including abandoned teleporter) are set to different locations, the game seems to use a hierarchy of: 1. Abandoned teleporter, 2. AI satellite antechamber and 3. Teleporter room. Meaning it will only use the destination of the abandoned teleporter, if all 3 of those teleporters are engaged (at least on Boxstation). If no location is set on any teleporter, the location will be random, which can teleport people into space or inside walls.

Flashbang
Flashbang
  • Found in: Inside the security lockers, a full box at the Armory, and the Armadyne Peacekeeper Equipment Vendor.
  • Used for: Subjugating many criminals at once.
  • Strategy: Trigger it and throw it at a criminal mob. Note: Triggering it will automatically enable you to throw it immediately.
Description

This is an advanced piece of equipment because it is so difficult to use. It's distributed by SecTech vendors, the Warden, and can also be found in security lockers. In rooms where multiple and/or armed personnel are expected, you may use a flashbang to "breach" the room. Select it, press the button, and throw it immediately. It will blind everyone nearby for a short time and deafen them for a more extended time. If all goes well, they will be on the ground, having dropped their weapons and awaiting your handcuffs.


Flashbangs will paralyze people within range for 20 seconds unless they've protected their eyes and ears. Security usually wears HUD sunglasses and bowman headsets, allowing them to throw flashbangs safely. Security helmets themselves protect against the bang part but not the flash. Other alternatives, such as regular sunglasses, welding masks, and earmuffs, can be used for protection. Partial protection may reduce the paralyze time. Flashbangs detonated on the same tile as you will fully paralyze you, even if you wear complete flashbang protection. If you are 1 tile away from the detonation and wearing protection, it will paralyze for only 3 seconds.


Also, note that the flashbang will disable cyborgs for a few seconds. Use this to subdue a borg from a safe distance. For the best results, 'cook' the flashbang for a few seconds in your hand to give it less time to react (although this will stun you horribly if it goes off while holding it).

Pepperspray
Pepperspray
Description

Manufactured by UhangInc, used to down an opponent quickly. Can store 8 sprays inside it. Remember to set the Pepper Spray to use 5 units to get the most out of it, using it at 5 units will have it cover up to four tiles and take down anyone not wearing eye protection. Best used in a narrow corridor, like the HOP line, where it can knock over several people at once.

The most effective way to use pepperspray is to stop in place and use it directly on the target. While it is possible to use the pepperspray while moving, it may result in spraying and disabling the user. If you are able to use it directly on your target, the spray will follow them and reach its destination.

Can be filled at Pepper Spray Refillers located in walls at Security Office and Security Posts. You can also fill it with other chemicals, like welding fuel, should you be able to find a use for that.

Temperature Gun
Temperature Gun
  • Found in: Armory, Security Protolathe.
  • Used for: Combat.
  • Strategy: Detaining traitors with energy swords/shields, slime removal/healing.
Description

This gun can heat up or cool down targets, although it won't reach really dangerous levels unless you cool down someone in a hardsuit.
This weapon is deceptively strong since the projectiles aren't blocked by eswords/eshields and can slow people down to a crawl.
Slimes die to it in two to three hits, or you can heal them with heat setting.

Close-Proximity and Melee

Flash
Flash
Description

A versatile tool! Flashes are small devices capable of producing an extremely bright light that is capable of blinding and stunning someone for as long as a baton if they are immediately adjacent to you. This light will overcome visual senses, causing them to fall like a little bitch, allowing plenty of time to beat them to death handcuff them. This is an acceptable alternative to a Stun Baton in a pinch, but is not recommended as an alternative due to it not working against anybody wearing protective eye coverings such as welding helmets or Sunglasses. On the downside, overexposure can cause blindness, and the flash's bulb is prone to burning out after repeated usage. Does not work if the target is facing away from you.

Handheld flashes are effective at stunning Cyborgs, and are one of the few ways of stunning them. Carry it in your pocket or security belt.

Some revolutionary leaders can use flashes to brainwash other members of the crew if they are not wearing protective gear.

Handcuffs
Handcuffs
  • Found in: Security Office, Autolathe, Security Officer starts with them, full box at Armory
  • Used for: Apprehending the criminal.
  • Strategy: Apply it to a criminal.
Description

Throw a pair in your pocket; more can be dispensed from the SecTech vendors. It prevents criminals from holding items, opening doors, and generally locks them behind whatever room they're in. If the victim were to be dragged or grabbed in any way, they will be unable to move. Be careful not to bump into anybody else while transporting the criminal, as this may loosen the prisoner from your grip allowing him to run free. A freedom implant or resourceful changeling can remove cuffs instantly, but everyone else has to struggle with them for two or more minutes in a private area to get them off without outside help. Remember, you cannot open airlocks while cuffed. So if you are handcuffed in space without proper gear, you will most likely die. Can be combined with orange prison shoes to make foot shackles, which force a person to always walk.

Police Baton
Police Baton
  • Found in: Classic Police Crate, Detective gets one
  • Used for: Subjugating criminals.
  • Strategy: Apply to a person.
Description

Works the same as a telebaton, except it's always extended. When not on harm intent it causes 1.5 seconds of knockdown and 35 stamina damage, which means it will put target into A.K.A. Telebaton. A compact yet robust personal defense weapon. Can be concealed when folded. Every Head gets one. When not on harm intent it causes 1.5 seconds of knockdown and 45 stamina damage, which means it will put someone into Put someone into Critical Stamina Condition with 4.2 hits. Has a 4 second cooldown between non-harm hits.

Damage = 10 brute damage on harm hits within 4.2 hits. Has a 4 second cooldown between non-harm hits.

Stun Baton
Stun Baton
  • Found in: Lockers at Security Office, spawns in security officers' belts
  • Used for: Subjugating criminals.
  • Strategy: Use it on the criminal.
Description

Your primary melee weapon. Standard Protocol is to wear it on your BELT or your actual Security Belt. Do not run around with your weapon brandished as you will be slipped and killed by the clown.

Stun Batons are capable of both non-lethal and lethal take down, with left mouse knocking down your target and dealing 35 stamina damages, or with right click, beating them, dealing ten brute damage. Unlike the non-charge counterpart, you can still stun someone with harm baton. successful hit will knock your target down for 5 second after a short 3 second delays. Unless they rested which will avoid the effect. They will drop whatever item they're holding.

Damage = 10 brute damage on harm hits

Telescopic Baton

MCR-01
MCR-01
  • Found in: Armory And Cargo Import
  • Used for: Incapacitating threats.
  • Strategy: Fire at the target.
Description

Distributed by the Warden (or Quartermaster). The laser gun, unsurprisingly, shoots lasers, which deal stun damage like a disabler. The lasers will travel through grilles and glass of all sorts. Laser guns have slightly more rounds to fire than e-guns and can be recharged. Usually distributed along with Riot Shields in extreme cases. Can be ordered by the quartermasters in a secure weapons crate, which itself can only be opened by a security officer or military head of staff. They can also be ordered privately via Imports if necessary or by Security Order Console


X-01 MultiPhase Energy Gun (aka head of security's personal laser gun)

  • Used for: Subjugating criminals and/or eliminating threats.
  • Strategy: Toggle the mode you want and fire at the target.
Description

Unique weapon held only by the Head of Security. Functions essentially as a more advanced energy gun, capable of firing in disable, ion, and lethal laser modes. This is a high-risk item and is often a theft objective for traitors (head of security's personal laser gun).

NT CMG-2 PDW
NT CMG-2 PDW
  • Found in: Cargo, Armory
  • Used for: Eliminating threats.
  • Strategy: Fire at the target.
Description

Ballistic rifle that Security can gain access to via Cargo. The rifle holds several clear advantages and disadvantages over the standard Laser Gun. The rifle holds 20 rounds per magazine, can be reloaded in the field and can bypass some energy weapon defenses such as Energy Shields and, to a degree, Energy Swords. However this weapons needs physical ammo to reload with, lacks any stunning capability, cannot bypass glass and must be bought from Cargo en masse. One SMG at a time can be ordered for free from the Security Console

The choice to acquire this weapon is usually in the hands of the Head of Security or the Warden, and as such is a very uncommon weapon to see in Security's hands, however if Security has sufficient warning about a imminent attack, such as Nuclear Operatives declaring war, then the weapon tends to be a popular choice.

Damage = 30 brute on shot

Peacekeeper Shotgun
Peacekeeper Shotgun
  • Found in: Armory, cargo
  • Used for: Stunning/Eliminating threats.
  • Strategy: Fire at the target.
Description

Security issued shotgun, can hold up to six shells at a time and comes preloaded with rubber shot rounds for non-lethal take downs.

  • Strategy: Wield it and form a wall with your comrades.
Description

These are held in a hand space and used to block close range weapons. They also can also block ranged attack. They make a fairly efficient weapon in terms of bludgeoning criminals, but it's suggested to pair this up with a stun baton or ranged weapon. Slamming your baton against this shield will create a threatening banging sound. When I play the maracas I go chick-chicky-boom, chick-chicky boom


Tracking Implant
Tracking Implant
  • Found in: Armory in a Tracking Implant Kit
  • Used for: Tracking suspects, and making it possible to teleport straight up to the implanted person.
  • Strategy: Take the implanter, load it with an implant and use the implanter on a person.
Description

When used on someone, it will implant a tracking beacon under the skin of that person's chest. The Prisoner Management Console can be used to check the implanted person's location and even send messages into their mind. Use a bluespace locator to track implanted targets. Locators can be printed from the security techfab after research. Use a Hand Teleporter or Teleporter to teleport directly to the target. It does not cause people to be gibbed when teleported to. Disintegrates 10 minutes after the death of the host, unless revived.


Chemical Implant
Chemical Implant
  • Found in: Armory in a Chemical Implant Kit
  • Used for: Can be loaded with any sort of chemical agent via the common syringe and can hold 50 units.

This implant will only make it impossible to learn any new, cultistic ways. People who are already cultists cannot be de-culted via implant and persons who are strong enough to lead a revolution party will completely resist this implant. If you have time, you can remove these implants by doing an implant removal surgery on the chest, which will allow your prey to be converted normally.

The pack is then placed in the backpack slot of the criminal scum; he/she will be unable to remove it without someone else's help. After activation, a simple press of a Remote Signaling Device set to the same frequency as the pack will activate it, giving your prisoner an electric shock and instantly incapacitating them. Best of all- This does no physical harm. If you did want to do physical harm, you can combine the electropack with a helmet and then place it on a Chair that has powered wires under it. This will create an electric chair to allow you to cleanly execute multiple prisoners in a row. The AI will not approve, but when does the AI ever approve of what you do?


Space Law
Space Law
Description

An official copy of Space Law is made available to all security personnel. Ensure that you understand it and don't be afraid to literally throw the book at anyone who contests it. Give it to the Head of Security or Warden and watch them scoff in disgust.


Recharger
Recharger
  • Found in: Armory, Security Office, Security Posts
  • Used for: Securing an area from anyone without protective eyewear.
  • Strategy: Pull it to a powered area and wrench it in place.
Description

A recharger can recharge any energy-based device should it run out of power. As a member of security you will most likely be using these to recharge your stun batons and tasers. Rechargers can be wrenched then moved, for example to be closer to a blob eating the station. The recharge time of your energy based devices will vary depending on their maximum capacity.


Portable Flash
Portable Flash
  • Found in: Armory
  • Used for: Securing an area.
  • Strategy: Pull it to a powered area and wrench it in place.
Description

A portable flasher is an effective device that when secured to the ground will automatically emit a bright light when its motion sensors are activated. It will stun anyone close to the bulb for about as long as a pocket-sized device would. To prepare a portable flasher, first bring it to the desired area, then use a Wrench to secure the bolts to the ground. Once you have done that, the portable flasher will draw power from the local APC. If you are not wearing a form of eye protection (such as Sunglasses or a Welding Helmet) you will become momentarily stunned if you are close to the portable flasher when it goes off.


Deployable Barrier Grenade
Deployable Barrier Grenade
  • Found in: Armory
  • Used for: Securing an area, making sure no one (without Armory access) can pass through.
  • Strategy: Drag it where you need it and swipe it with your ID.
Description

The Armory contains grenades that, when thrown, will produce a deployable barrier, a much stronger version of the wooden barricade. The grenades can have their direction switched by alt-clicking on them or using their action button, and the barricades they spawn will take 5 seconds to deploy. Deployable barriers can be repaired using a welder.


Lethal Injection Syringe
Lethal Injection Syringe
  • Found in: Prison Wing
  • Used for: Eliminating a convict.
  • Strategy: Use it on the convict.
Description

A special syringe designed for lethal injections. Contains 15 units of Plasma, 15 units of Formaldehyde, 10 units of Cyanide, and 10 units of Fluorosulfuric Acid. It injects all of its reagents in one push. This kills a convict in about 40 seconds.

Machines

Security Robots

The Robotic side of the security force.

Securitron/ Officer Beepsky
Securitron/
Officer Beepsky

Found in: One patrolling around the halls, others manufactured in Robotics
Used for: Detaining criminals, autonomous guards in high security areas.

Description

All stations start with at least one Securitron. One is the famous Officer Beepsky, who is the closest the Head of Security gets to a pet and also a world class criminal catcher, being able to scuttle faster than a man can run, and stun and cuff and criminals using cablecuffs made in the experimental mass fabricator Nanotrasen places in every Securitron model.

Beepsky is so vigilant, he'll even trip anyone who gets in his way when he's chasing a perp! This also makes him a right pain when hacked as he will stun and cuff everyone in sight! A similar Securitron called Officer Pingsky spawns in the AI satellite to guard it from criminals! The Roboticists have the option to make more, but they are rarely made as they use up the Warden's precious helmets.

Keep in mind that traitors with an Agent ID card will have an easy time evading securitrons!

Most stations spawn with two additional Securitrons: The Armory's personal guard Sergeant-at-Armsky and the AI satellite's Officer Pingsky.

See here how to construct a Securitron.

Settings

You can change the Securitron's settings by swiping your security-access ID on it and looking at it:

  • Status: On/Off The Securitron is either turned on or off.
  • Behaviour controls are locked/unlocked People can access the controls or not.
  • Maintenance panel panel is closed/open People can access the maintenance panel or not. This lets you insert pAIs.
  • Arrest Unidentifiable Persons: Yes/No Arrests/detains anyone who has no ID visible and is unidentifiable (name shows as "Unknown").
  • Arrest for Unauthorized Weapons: Yes/No Arrests/detains anyone who has a weapon visible and an ID without weapons authorization (by default, anyone but head jobs and security).
  • Arrest for Warrant: Yes/No Checks the security records if anyone's status is set to "Arrest" and arrests/detains them.
  • Operating Mode: Arrest/Detain Arrest: Stuns and zipcuffs the perp, then leaves. Detain: Stuns the perp indefinitely.
  • Report arrests: Yes/No When someone receives a faceful of justice, the Securitron will announce the perp's name and location on its radio channel (by default, Security).
  • Auto Patrol: On/Off Patrols the station.

STOP RIGHT THERE CRIMINAL SCUM

Securitrons and ED-209s attack for one of two reasons:

  • The securitron is being attacked.
  • The perp's threat level is 4 or higher.

Things that can increase threat level

  • +10: Getting emagged. Now everyone is criminal scum.
  • +6: Getting attacked - but securitrons will hunt attackers regardless of threat level.
  • +5: Having a criminal status of "Arrest" when Arrest for Warrant is enabled.
  • +4: Having no visible ID and an obscured/disfigured face (showing up as Unknown) when "Arrest Unidentifiable Persons" is enabled
  • +4: Holding a weapon in your hand when Arrest for Unauthorized Weapons is enabled, but your ID doesn't have the permission.

This doesn't include dragged weapons or those in containers.

  • +2: Having a weapon equipped on the belt or back slot when the above is enabled.
  • +2: Having your criminal status set to "Incarcerated" or "Parolled".
  • +2: Violating the dress code by wearing a wizard hat or wizard hardsuit hat.
  • +1: Being non-human genetrash.

Things that can decrease threat level

  • -5: Wearing a Syndicate Agent ID card.
  • -1: Being implanted with a mindshield implant.

Good to know

  • Agent ID cards make traitors effectively invisible to sec bots, provided they don't stack more than one offense.
  • Mindshield implants do the same to a lesser degree - you can avoid weapon and ID check arrests.
  • Security bots (and also Honkbots) will get frustrated and stop hunting people after a few seconds.
  • All bots navigate by following navigation beacons. If those are destroyed, the bots will stop patrolling.
  • Sec bots are weak to EMP and ranged weapons, like guns and IED spears. Also, they can't escape welded/locked closets.


ED-209
ED-209

Found in: manufactured in Robotics
Used for: Detaining criminals even more efficiently.

Description

The most fearsome security robot. Like Beepsky, but with an added taser and four times the default health.
Keep in mind that ED-209s ignore monkeys though.

Controls:

  • Same as the Securitron's

See here how to construct an ED-209.
