Aahh that's what I was wondering about, thanks.

Also thanks to everyone who attended my Pathology class today, I'm sorry class got interrupted by us all vomiting bees everywhere and snapping our fingers off, at least we didn't instagib

OH and I think I realized how diseases keep getting out of containment: when something farts or sneezes, I don't think it's handled by the atmospheric engine, I think it just creates a 4x4 "contagious zone" that can go through walls. So if you're standing by the Pathology machine and a monkey gets close to the isolation door and sneezes, you catch it (I don't even think internals are a sure thing). So the isolation room fix would just be moving the cell at least 3 cells away from any walkable area, and to add another airlock containing that area.

Its windows. Windows don't block diseases. We got it fixed once upon a time but the fix looks to have been overriden.

Thanks for running classes. I've been out of game for probably over a year and I'm glad the knowledge continues.

Edit: And remember full internals will also block diseases if you want to be safe. (I typically don't.) Remember that this includes gloves. I once got someone in space, wearing a spacesuit sick through the Path window cause he wasn't wearing gloves.

I dunno nobody ever got mad at me for setting myself on fire so long as the fire was nearish a fire extinguisher.

Then again I always ended up blowing up toxins. Aside from the one time i smoked a cigarette and somehow blew up the entirety of botany. I'm pretty sure I adminhelped saying "er, so in advance i'm sorry, but what the gently caress"

Drinking all the pathogen samples won't do much as the baseline samples don't seem potent enough to actually cause you to catch anything. Might need to wait for someone to whip up something rude.

You can learn a janky method to make a basic superbug by basically splicing all of your symptoms from the samples, but even that would be considered very advanced by other department's standards.

More chems are bad to ingest than are good to ingest, and a mixture of random chems will often cause a bunch of weird or bad effects simultaneously, making things seem even worse than they are.

"Most plans are critically flawed by their own logic. A failure at any step will ruin everything after it. That's just basic cause and effect. It's easy for a good plan to fall apart. Therefore, a plan that has no attachment to logic cannot be stopped."

That gives me a wonderfully stupid idea for something to do as a traitor chef with the "die a glorious death" objective and a high-profile assassination target. Get a bunch of Syndicate Sauce, mindslave someone, the deep fry yourself after leaving orders with your mindslave to use all the Syndie Sauce on you and feed you to your target. Seems like the most SS13 way to assassinate someone.

Space was turned into an ocean of spiders. Obviously, everyone did their best to open every pod bay door and break every window to let the spiders in! By the end, nearly everyone either drowned or beat themselves to death trying to shake the spiders off.

And then space was turned into an ocean of pepperoni.

I succumbed to a deluge of pepperoni and spiders, cursing the day I decided to come back as a private investigator.

(NOTE: You can and WILL yell as you move through a tile of spiders. Not many had medical access, so they were the first to go. I did, however, so my screams were heard non-stop between OH GOD SPIDERS and YEOWCH THIS STYPTIC POWDER)

After holding a dude hostage in science and making four canister bombs, I walked by in plain sight with a can bomb while security was dealing with a non violent vampire. As they decided to start a trial for the vampire to determine his fate, all four bombs went off. I was caught trying to flee the station, but was finally captured on the shuttle, and knocked down.

This is a coward's answer. Seeing a man get his soul torn in half is merely the benchmark for further glory.
