Lets scientists (and whoever else wants to be gross) use the *piss emote to pee directly into any object derived from beaker. By analogy to burning paper and scooping ashes, this is more efficient than scooping the piss into a glass from the ground. Also cleaned up the *piss emote code so it's slightly less of a mess of if-else statements. Makes it a little less tedious to collect piss for chemical reactions or just to be gross.
Testing: Pissed on the ground, same as before. Pissed in beakers, the beakers collect piss.

as in, hold a beaker and piss and it goes in? why not do the thing that drinking glasses do with piss, wherein clicking one in your hand after drinking enough liquid brings a prompt of what to do with it, only option being to piss in it

Probably because you can adjust your grip on the beaker by using it in your hand.

The idea here is that a beaker on the ground works the same as a toilet. The mechanics are left as an exercise for the player ("...takes aim and...")

then just have the context menu appear only when you have enough liquid in you to piss, and have the menu have both tightening your grip and pissing in it. idk just the beaker being on the ground also works

I don't like context menus so this is cool as it is
