Guide to chemistry
| Bryon Styles, the Chemist says: "Welcome to chemistry, the place where you can make special drugs that are both capable of healing someone back to life, or dealing some serious damage without them knowing any better." |
This guide will primarily be useful for chemists but may come in handy to any player and especially traitors
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.
Chemistry Dispensers
Chem dispensers can be upgraded to unlock more chemicals, allow for more precise macro usage, increased power recharge rate and higher power capacity. If you run out of power, you can disassemble the dispenser with screwdriver+crowbar and rebuild it by first putting the circuit board back, and then all other things but use a full power cell 
instead of the old one. Then screwdriver to finish. Or you can charge the machine with an inducer 
.

Chemical Heater
Some chemical reactions will require you to heat the reagents in a Chemical Heater. Unless the recipes says otherwise, these reactions need you to heat the reagents above the required temperature.
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 (like with meth) you can just set it to a very high temperature to avoid this.
Due to a rounding bug you sometimes need to heat chems 1 degree higher than the recipe says.
Upgrading the laser will increase the heating/cooling speed.
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, patches 40u and pills 50u. Use a chemistry bag 
to quickly move large quantities of bottles, patches or pills.
Can be upgraded with bigger beakers to allow a bigger buffer. By default it contains two ordinary 50u beakers for a total buffer volume of 100u.
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.
Metabolism
When a reagent enters a body, it will then "tick" or "cycle" about every 2 seconds (these are called "life ticks", and are not to be confused with server ticks/tickrate). When this happens the body is purged of an amount of every reagent depending on their metabolism rates. This is the rate at which the chemical disappears from your body. It doesn't matter how many chems you have in your body, as they are all metabolized separately. If you are hungry (sluggish), this will happen 20% slower, which makes chemicals have a bigger total effect since they last longer without being weaker per tick. Many mobs are "simplemobs" which means they don't have bloodstreams and can thus not be poisoned, sedated or healed with medicine. Monkeys and most playable humanoids are the exceptions to this.
Active Pure Chemicals
A.K.A. what happens when you eat or splash these. Their metabolism rate is 0.4u per cycle unless said otherwise. Unmentioned dispensable chemicals don't have any effects. Plasma and uranium requires you to grind mineral sheets to acquire.
- Chlorine: Causes 1 brute damage per tick to a random body part.
- 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. Metabolism rate 0.2.
- Fluorine: Causes 1 toxin damage per tick.
- Iron: Slowly restores blood volume.
- Lithium: Causes twitching, drooling, moaning and not being able to walk straight.
- Mercury: Causes 1 brain damage per tick, twitching, drooling, moaning and not being able to walk straight.
- Plasma: Causes 3 toxin damage per tick. Creates gas form plasma when spilled or heated to 323.15K (50°C). Not to be confused with Stable Plasma, which does nothing.
- Radium: Slowly causes irradiation (2 per tick). Creates glowing green goo on floor if more than 3u is spilled.
- Sugar: Gives nutrition. Causes hyperglycemic shock if overdosed (200u). Metabolism rate 0.8.
- Sulphuric Acid: Causes 1 toxin damage and some instant brute damage to one body part when ingested, and slightly more brute damage when injected. Destroys head-wear and causes burn damage when sprayed or splashed on someone. Counts as a toxin.
- Uranium: Causes slight (1 per tick) irradiation. Creates glowing green goo on floor if more than 3u is spilled.
- Welding Fuel: Causes 1 toxin damage per tick. Makes people flammable if splashed on.
Components
These are very basic chemicals that you'll use in a lot of other more complicated chems. They can still be toxic, though.

Medicines
"And that's how I lost my medical license!" Don't be this guy. Make these. Lots of these.
Many reagents can also be overdosed and/or cause addiction, leading to a negative outcome. Be sure to monitor how many units someone is injected with. If an overdose occurs, the negative effects will keep being applied every tick until that chemical is completely out of the system. If an addiction occurs, the negative effects will only start occuring some time after the chemical is out of the system, and can be negated by keeping taking it. You can usually only remove an addiction by waiting it out.
See Guide to Medicine for more information on what to use and when.

In optimal conditions every cycle will heal 15 burn before the damage taken from being on fire, which is usually faster than the fire hurts you (unless too hot). It will then also heal 10 brute, 10 toxin, 20 oxyloss and 10 cellular. Works on slimepeople. | 0.4 units per tick | N/A |
| Clonexadone▮ | 1 part Cryoxadone 1 part 1 part Unstable Mutagen 1 part Chlorine 1 part Phosphorus 1 part Stable Plasma 1 part Sodium |
Cellular | Quickly heals (cellular) damage, but only when in a cold environment. The colder the faster heal. Heals about 5 cellular per tick if used in unupgraded cryo tubes. | 0.6 units per tick | N/A |
| Rezadone▮ | 1 part Carpotoxin Space Carp, Koibeans, Emagged Chem Dispenser
1 part Cryptobiolin 1 part Oxygen 1 part Potassium 1 part Copper |

| Sanguibital▮ | Was replaced with Helbital Sept 2019. 1 part Carbon 1 part Fluorine |
Brute | One of the first "Cobbychems". Only existed on /tg/ for a short while. Removed by Cobby because it wasn't ever used and the entire gimmick made it undesirable. Heals brute if you have lower than full blood levels, scaling with missing blood volume. Will heal up to 5(10?) brute per tick if very low on blood. Dilates blood streams, increasing the amount of blood lost by 2 per tick. Overdosing doubles the blood lost from this chem. | 0.2 units per tick | 35 Units | N/A |

Prolonged exposure can cause burns to itch. Heals 2 burn per tick, and randomly makes you scratch yourself every few seconds, causing 1-7 brute and bleeding. The itch will happen more often the longer it's been in your system. | 0.2 units per tick | N/A | N/A |
| Fiziver▮ | Was replaced with Seiver Oct 2019. 1 part Aluminium 1 part Nitrogen |
Toxin | One of the first "Cobbychems". Removed by Cobby because Fiziver didn't see much use and I grew to dislike the overall damage mods. An antitoxin that heals toxin damage but temporarily physically weakens the user, adding a damage modifier making them take extra brute, burn, suffocation and stamina damage. The damage modifier increases the longer it's been in the body (capped to triple damage). Toxin damage healed is 0.3 points per tick multiplied with the damage modifier (so up to 0.6). Overdosing has a 50% chance each tick to deal 0.2 brute and burn damage, which will be amplified by the damage multiplier in effect. | 0.1 units per tick | 11 Units | N/A |
| Corazone▮ | Name changed to Higadrite Nov 2019. 2 parts 1 part Lithium |
Liver | Nov 2019 it was changed to only work on livers. Since Corazone is Spanish for "heart" it had its name changed to Higadrite (higado = liver). Protects from liver failure. | 0.4 units per tick | N/A | N/A |
Narcotics
Narcotics are highly addictive 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. | Reduces stun times by typically around 20% (depends). Addiction does nothing. If overdosed it will deal 1.1 oxygen and 0.1 toxin damage per tick. Metabolizes slowly. | 0.05 units per tick | 15 Units | 10 Units |

Pyrotechnics
The manipulation of fire and matter.
Explosive Strength
For chemicals which are explosive, you may notice an 'explosive strength' listed in the description. This is a multiplier that directly affects how large of an explosion a given quantity of the reagent will produce. A few types of explosion have a 'modifier', which adds a flat amount to the size of the explosion. By default the outer 'light impact' radius of an explosion is equal to √(mod+quantity*strength)*√2, while the heavy impact radius and devastation radius is one half and one quarter of that, respectively. Chemical explosions are not a subject to the standard TTV Bombcap. Eventough it doesn't have a hardcoded maxcap currently the biggest possible explosion is that of 2100u custom made chemical payload bomb.
Note that all non-standard explosions or other AoE pyrotechnics, such as Flash Powder or Liquid Dark Matter, do not work like this. The scaling and max size of these effects vary on a case-by-case basis.
| Name | Recipe | Description | Metabolism Rate |
|---|---|---|---|
| Stabilizing Agent▮ | 1 part Iron 1 part Oxygen |
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! | 0.4 units per tick |
| Fluorosurfactant▮ | 2 parts Carbon 2 parts Fluorine |
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 floors, objects, people or 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 system. Foam is slippery! Can not react in a body. | 0.4 units per tick |
| Smoke▮ | 1 part Phosphorous 1 part Potassium |
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. | N/A |
| Smoke Powder▮ | 1 part Phosphorous 1 part Potassium Stabilizing Agent (catalyst)
1 part Iron 1 part Oxygen |
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. | 0.4 units per tick |

Deafens in a radius that scales up with the amount detonated. Can be stabilized with Stabilizing Agent. If stabilized, heat to 374K to activate. | 0.4 units per tick |
| Pyrosium▮ | 1 part Stable Plasma 1 part Radium |
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. Does nothing whatsoever without being mixed with liquid Oxygen. Does not react with the oxygen in air. Can not react in a body. | 0.2 units per tick |
| Cryostylane▮ | 1 part Water 1 part Stable Plasma |
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 react in a body. | 0.2 units per tick |
| Chlorine Trifluoride▮ | 3 parts Fluorine 1 part Chlorine |
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 deal 6 burn per tick from the inside. It metabolizes out of your body extremely fast, however. | 4 units per tick |
| Sorium▮ | 1 part Carbon 1 part Mercury |
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. | 0.4 units per tick |
| Liquid Dark Matter▮ | 1 part Carbon 1 part Stable Plasma |
When detonated it will suck in any movable object or person. Can be stabilized with Stabilizing Agent. If stabilized, heat to 474K to activate. | 0.4 units per tick |
| Meth Explosion▮ | 1 part 1 part Hydrogen |
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. 100u explodes with about half the strength of 100u exploding Meth. Can not explode in a body. Has an explosive strength of 0.167, with a flat +1 size to the explosion | N/A |

Otherwise it behaves like a normal Water-Potassium explosion. | N/A |
| EMP | 1 part Iron 1 part Uranium |
This reacts immediately on mixing, creating an electromagnetic pulse which affects electronics nearby; very useful for causing chaos. Has different effects on different things. Turns off headsets, stuns cyborgs, disables security cameras, messes with Cybernetics, randomizes suit sensor settings, burns wearers of some hardsuits and randomly pulses wires. | N/A |
| Bee Explosion (Beesplosion) | 1 part 1 part Strange Reagent 1 part Unstable Mutagen 1 part Chlorine 1 part Phosphorus 1 part Omnizine Grown from Ambrosia Deus or found in lollipops and heated Donk Pockets
1 part Holy Water 1 part Radium |

First of all, there are actually 5 types 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
Ingest and inject both usually do the exact same thing. The reagent simply enters the target's bloodstream. Used by pills, cigarettes, e-cigarettes, inhaling smoke and drinking the reagent directly. Probital works best when ingested.
Inject
Works the same as ingest, where the reagent simply enters the target's bloodstream. Used by syringes and IV-drips. Syriniver works best if injected.
Vapor
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. Hercuri works best as vapor.
Touch
Touch is used by smoke and splashing. If the reagent has a "touch" based component, that component will affect the target (such as the instant heal part of Synthflesh), 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
Patch is used by patches and medical gels. 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
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
Syringes can inject into people even with their mouths covered, either by hand or with a syringe gun. It doesn't work on players wearing hardsuits or other pierce-immune clothing, unless you use a piercing syringe or manage to aim for an exposed part of their body. Golems are completely immune to syringes (even piercing syringes), but patches do work on them. A syringe holds between 10-60u, depending on type. Common syringes hold 15u.
Patches
Will add all reagents into a person's bloodstream through any clothing, including hardsuits. Also apply touch/patch based effects. Example: A patch of 20u Synthflesh will instantly heal 25 brute and burn (touch component), and also enter the target's bloodstream (which in this case does nothing). 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 or gas mask 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 Synthflesh. Everyone caught in the cloud, including people wearing hardsuits, will slowly heal 25 brute and burn, if they stay in the smoke for 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 (which does nothing in this case).
Smoke example: 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 type delivery 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. Despite dilution, the foam will still copy remaining chems such as 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 Cyanide will spread a blue foam that does nothing to those it touches. The poison is too diluted to work at all.
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 anything with harm intent, will splash its contents. The longer throw distance, the more the splash will spread out. A grenade will splash its content unless it also contains smoke or foam. 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 80u Synthflesh at someone, you will instantly heal them for 100 brute and burn (and deal up to 150 toxin damage), since Synthflesh is touch/patch based. It doesn't matter if the target uses hardsuit or internals in this case. This means throwing a beaker of poison at someone will do nothing at all. Splashing can apply chemicals such as Thermite to walls.
Spraying
Spraying reagents will apply them to environments (if they have any such effect), and will enter hit people's bloodstreams through the vapor delivery. 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.
Beyond the Dispenser
Just because it isn't found in the dispenser or the guide above doesn't mean you can't use it! Drinks, slime cores and plenty of other things can provide limitless fun for an enterprising and curious chemist.
