Some assorted gasses to tinker with
#1
Now we have constructable atmos pipes I think it'd be fun to have some more gasses to fool around with in mechcomp. Not really suggesting this from a toxins perspective where you'd be crafting actual useful stuff in the lab, but rather one off joke gasses like farts.

A few ideas:
  • Void gas, pumped from the void azone. I dunno what this could do I just thought void gas was cool.
  • Gaseous botany plant, maybe a stink plant that makes you vomit? Make it vanish on contact with lavender or somethin. (Blender grav trap mixed with this to make a makeshift janitor tc item)
  • Foods that change your farts into a different gas.
  • Gas version of helium, so you can charge for helium shots or sneakily release it into medbay for the funny. Equivalent deep voice version would also be funny.
  • Balding gas. Possibly too funny.

The rafflesia already does this, since it spews miasma. But if you splice it with Lavender it negates that issue.

Void gas sounds cool! I wonder if you make exert negative pressure or something stupid like that.

I kinda like this idea, however If more gas's get added I would like an expansion on gas crafting, because as of right now the only gas you can "craft" with other gas is Oxygen B

Void gas is cool. I'd rather gasses are less just jokes and more something with a practical use. I think 'x but it balds you' loses its funny when it's been done already with a traitor item and formerly acid.

Void Gas could be cool as a sort of 'conversion' based gas that transforms the gas there's the least of into the gas there's the most of in whatever its in to facilitate making more of whatever gas you need without solely relying on mining getting the right rocks (and instead relying on telesci to have a void portal). Could also make the process of getting methane less annoying long term, as once you have enough you can 'industrialize' the production of it using void gas. Similar for Agent B where once you have enough to get off the ground, you switch to converting something less useful like N2 into it. Would probably need some limiter, potentially requiring very low temperatures to function (preventing it from being inside of a pipeburn), or consuming much more gas than what's produced, including the void gas itself.
Might be drastically unbalanced or incredibly difficult to implement (realistically both) but would easily add a new avenue for atmos involving the production of gasses instead of just using it up in a pipeburn, including recycling the various gasses produced by decayed plasma in nuclear reactors (I think this happens I don't mess with engine enough to know for 100%)
