Make sleepy pens adjustable doseage - wabash1 - 06-17-2013
Clicking on sleepy pen gives a HOW MUCH DO YOU WANT TO INJECT question, you type the amount, can be anywhere from 0-100 Clicking someone with a 0 pen does nothing at all, as if it was empty.

yes i agree it would be cool to just instantly kill a guy by injecting a full dose.

Well, you can fill it with other stuff. So fill it with cyanide and instantly kill a dude is what I was talking about.

I wish you could add more than 10 units a time into a sleepy pen

If you click a container with a sleepypen it should auto-fill with everything from that container

If you know enough chemistry sleepypens are so ridiculously good for a 4 telecrystal purchase that making them better might literally blow the servers up IRL
Also it's two clicks to dump a full pen into someone, if you're in the position for one subtle dose you can sure as hell pull off two.

Basically this objection is dumb

What objection? I actually did mean it would be cool. I wasn't being sarcastic, though it's probably hard not to sound sarcastic typing in lowercase letters.

I dunno why people keep thinking of dumping the entire pen into the victim. The way I see it the benefits of such a change would be the ability to inject smaller doses for chemicals you don't need a lot of, so you get more uses out of one filling.

While I'm suprised nobody has said that an emag costs 1 more crystal and would let you emag a hypospray and be more useful besides, I support this idea because pens are for stealth and staticy hyposprays give you away.
Re: Make sleepy pens adjustable doseage - Embolism - 06-18-2013
I think a sleepypen is far more valuable than an emagged hypospray (which shows who injected whom and what was injected, and even the best knockout drug takes a bit of time to work), and the other uses of the emag are not that useful if you're prepared; particularly if you don't want to alert the station.
