allow cups and glasses to be accepted at the chem dispenser - babayetu83 - 02-13-2017
since it's just a cup and not a graduated beaker, you'd have to either guess or eyeball how much you're getting into the drinking glass. the science goggles could also help with this
conversely, allow beakers to be used at the soda and alcohol fountains

unless they add in a text blurb about the machine being programmed to reject unapproved glassware
then you could hack its wires to break the safety restriction :3

Once you turn off the safety, you should be able to rig the nozzle to spray the reagents directly at the chemist with a screwdriver or something.

i am incredibly in favor of hackable chem dispensers especially if they can be sabotaged

I like that. Have the machine dispense anywhere between 10 units more or less than whatever you set it to do that you can't be exact with the work

Considering they can accommodate watering cans... anyways:

That part is really neat.

goggles could still be not-exact, I think. E.G. "The glass has 20-30 units of urine in it"

Maybe because it's glassware and not special beakers made of reinforced special glass, the cup should shatter at extreme temperatures, melt from strong acid, and corrode from certain chems (notably hellchems and the like)
