I've been thinking about what would happen, syndizing critters from the station...

• Hammy : create minor havoc with the perfect excuse of being Hammy
• Ian : Top 10 Anime Betrayals material right there if you have the butchering objective
• Shiva : yes.
• Sharkminnow : YESSS.
• Goliath : MUHAHAHAHA

should be craftable with the syndie chem instead of being its own thing...

it already is

ah, its both... hm...mouse...

leviathing with syndizine:

Syndizine made me think it was a syndicate version of omnizine (the god healing chem) and not cognizine.

My only recommendation would be to make mouse cubes! It feels a little weird that the mice are alive when they arrive. Love the idea!

hi two concerns:

1. Syndizine foam bombs make this really strong
2. You say you can’t syndizine humanoids, but is that really the case for all humanoids? Cogni can be used to make unidentified corpses and catatonic players into ghost roles, does the same apply here?

people will use this on goliaths

also can use it on unidentified corpse

This was tested by a member of the discord, from their testing, Goliaths can't metabolise chemicals

ack, i never tried that. it just checks for a HumanoidAppearanceComponent, so it theoretically shouldn't work on those? will test in a few hours

unidentified corpses and catatonic players seem to work as intended

though maybe it should work on unidentified corpses? why not

that'd essentially work like the player purchasing a reinforcement radio, but for a quarter of the price. in my opinion, it's too powerful for too cheap. plus, it'd be a bit weird to completely control another humanoid being like that.

To be honest if this worked on catatonic players it would be very goofy
Also had no clue cognizine makes catatonic players into ghost roles, now i know what to do with that pile of catatonic people below medical

As long as this doesn't affect boss mobs (double check rat king/dragon please) and unidentified corpses/catatonic corpses aren't affected I don't see any issue.. besides monkeys. If they aren't humanoidcomponent this is essentially four monkey reinforcements at an absurdly cheap price, and that's potentially 20 syndicate agents WITH A HAND SLOT at one traitor's disposal. monkeys should either require more than one dose of syndizine or should be blocked from it entirely.

I really don't like the name "Syndizine". It kind of feels "cheap" to me.

This should not be used as the mitigating factor for this concern. They could at one point get metabolism, or another powerful mob might get introduced with a metabolism, reintroducing the problem. There should be some sort of whitelist-like condition to what can be affected by this

edit: (with possibly it still having a CHANCE to work on non-whitelisted mobs, but it might just fail and create a free agent, without the user knowing if it worked or not)

Monkeys made conscious with this chemical can't use guns, while syndicate reinforcement monkeys can

Name suggestion if Syndizine is too cheap/obvious:
Dominosol, Thrallium, Obedixin, Vassalex

Monkeys made conscious with this chemical can't use guns, while syndicate reinforcement monkeys can

monkeys can still use melee and 4 monkeys with cybersun pens for 8 TC (or 4 monkeys with edaggers for 12tc) is fucking insane

also: not everything is based around combat, and four monkeys working for you, even if they were all pacified, is still four extra hands that can go steal things, cause major distractions, or hypopen sleep important targets.

they can't wear armor, they can't wear shoes, you can defeat them with glass shards and any competent security member can gun them down with an SMG

lack of shoes never stopped diona + not everything is combat oriented (see previous comment edit)

It's still a 6tc purchase made 1tc… I've seen monkeys take out cap with just a cleaver and they can totally wear armor.

monkeys are clumsy, so it'll be harder for them to use a hypopen, the sabotaging part is fair though it'll just be harder for them to lug around tools (which is already a problem with syndie monkeys)

but anyway if this PR gets merged with monkeys unwhitelisted i'm going to buy a c4 bundle and as many of these as possible and send my horrible monkey minions to go suicide bomb everyone until this gets nerfed
