A small idea for the chameleon projector, let users use emotes but make the chat log message show the object as using the emote.

The pipe bomb f a r t s !

It's tough to code for containers, as chameleon projectors and pods are in the same coding boat, but uh, yeah, this somehow

I've always wondered with chameleon projectors, can the AI track you when you are posing as a cat?
Like, say if you've committed a grievous crime, then the AI is tracking you, and you turn into a cat, will the AI's camera go blank? Or will he see you transform into the cat then go blank?

Because it's not in the wiki, and the knowledge that you can hide from AI's prying eyes making the chameleon projector all that more powerful.

It does work that way in conjunction with something else.

No need to keep secrets. You're talking about the syndicate ID right?
Either way it should block AI's eyes completely when you are cloaked, no conjunction. That would actually be a really useful buff, because it means the AI can't track you, and can't rat you out that you're jones in the bridge.

MACHO ASCENSION
An 6-10 telecrystal item, the item is an implant (or a bandana, whatever) that when activated (activate by saying oh yeah? Snap into a slim jim? Something about Miss Elizabeth?), replaces the player's outfit with Randy Savage garments and transforms the traitor into Macho Man. The player's name gets "Macho Man" added to it (so it'd look like Macho Man Player Name). They would get all of the Macho abilities, with reduced stun and essentially be a murdering machine.
The catch? The transformation only lasts for 2-4 minutes, after which you retain the Macho Man name and lose your clothes and powers, leaving you a weakling in his underwear. Could be good for getting out of a pinch, and I'd love to see a team of Macho Syndicates as well.

The cloaking device. Try using both a projector and a cloak at the same time and see if anything can see you.

The fucker-upper 9000 is a newly-minted round for the MPRT-8 that upon firing shoots a butt-ton of flares down the hallway.

vial of Necrotizing fasciitis

10 credits: doctor only

Release on station, people slowly get "you feel pain" messages and some slight brute damage and then when it gets worse limbs and butts fall off, after that death probably occurs.

Spreads on contact but can be contained and cured if you manage to get enough Spaceacillin in time.

The disease sounds over powered, but I figure if you've already let it get to the point that arms, legs, and butts are scattered everywhere, you're probably already screwed.

Also Spaceacillin is relatively easy to get, from med-bay or through chemistry.

Also perhaps limb removal could be required in some cases, if someone keeps getting the disease, you could just remove all their limbs and the disease might go away permanently.

It's a medical doctor traitor item because a disease that makes your arms, legs, and butt fall off seems like the perfect doctor plague.

Neat idea. I like the idea of being an evil bio-terrorist.

[Captain_Bravo]

That's a pretty good idea, here's a suggestion to make it better: have it be more subtle. As soon as someone contracts the virus, make it much, much more likely that their limbs will fall off. Like, whatever the current chance is from an explosion/bullet/punch, quadruple that fucker. Don't make it give you a message until about 5 minutes after you catch it, something minor like "Your arms hurt." And then, make it spread by contact with a severed limb.

Best part? You make it 8 telecrystals, so a traitor can also purchase two detomatix cartridges.

Slip a vial into some beakers of heal-on-touch chems, splash a few people with minor damage, blow their PDAs, and watch the fun as the station quickly goes to shit.

(Just imagine when, after a shitton of PDA bombs and everyone walking around carrying limbs, somebody screams "OH SHIT IT'S THE LIMB DISEASE" and everyone succumbs to bloodshed. )

Pubbie McShit's chest falls apart, leaving nothing to support it! What the fuck?!

Yes. Also if I were a jerk traitor doctor, I'd infect someone, convince them to start boxing people, and then spread the disease via disease boxing.
