There are a variety of chemicals that you can receive whenever you purchase a poison bottle. Each has its own uses: some penetrate skin, some are less obvious than others, some incapacitate you, and some outright kill you.
However, if you are looking for a specific use, then you’re out of luck because the poison you get is completely random.
Additionally, many of the chemicals that you can find in poison bottles can ONLY be found in poison bottles. If you’re lucky, the poison you want might have a secret chem recipe or be able to be extracted from a specific food.
If antags are given the ability to choose the chemical they receive from poison bottles, then it may make the item much more fun and versatile to use.
Of course, I’d imagine that some poisons (such as prions) may be a bit broken if any traitor scientist or doctor is easily able to purchase them for only 1 tc. Because of this, I would understand if poison bottles (or at least the stronger ones) have their tc cost raised or are nerfed in some way.
