Insert it into the station reactor: Generates a large amount of power for the station without the over charge effect
Insert into gene booth allows "Syndicate Gene Program" selectable for free. Adds a set of 2 good genes, 1 rare, and 50% of a random bad one.
Insert into chem extractor: Can be extracted into "Irridium Essence" - like silicate on steroids and works on floors/walls. Smoke it!
With how deadly it is to crew and nearby bits of the station, it would be nice to have it help recover from that in some way too. A cloner bonus or such.
I had an idea for a Mega AI Core: Turning an AI core into a mega cyborg that would have abilities it could activate to benefit the entire station (eg. Generates power, can give sechuds a pointer towards someone on arrest, opens more QM traders, etc.), but also requires work from almost the entire station to build. A part from this boss would be a fantastic piece for the MAIC, or some other unique station mega project.
The reactor thing sounds good, but it wouldn't make sense for a miniature doomsday device to carry genetics-related equipment as it's unmanned.
Dunno about Iridium Essence but I have seen Iridium Alloy on the wiki. What is it used for? Should I have some of it drop? If yes, how much?
Yet again, cloning tech wouldn't make sense to be present in a miniature doomsday device.
That last idea sounds quite ambitious. Maybe someone else'll make it. I surely don't plan to.
