These are pocket devices that dispense unwrenched atmos/disposal pipes.
Despite the admittedly misleading name, these have infinite ammo.
There is no need to reload with matter cartridges or anything like that.
Currently, they spawn in atmos tech lockers, and as an engiborg module.
More can be obtained with the autolathe.
They are also a traitor "steal item" objective.
* designs are now using the construction time var and the hacky /obj/item/mechavars is gone
* designs updated : there shouldn't be "no material" designs anymore
* cleaned the objects of their construction_cost and construction_time vars
* fixes the material name being displayed with $ character before
* this also fixes the overlay animation in inserting sheets
* the category var is now a list, so parts can be build/used with several chassis (fixes the Firefighter Chassis appearing when building Ripley)
* properly fix the href vulnerability when emptying (you can now remove all sheets of a materiel at once)
* the exofab now won't create a material sheet if there's not enough material (e.g 1000 metal)
* the exofab now won't accept a sheet if it would overstuff it (losing some material in the process)
* cleaned the code a bit (simplified, streamlined, using global vars, etc)
Finish #5722 and fixes#5954.
Exosuits will now use the designs from RnD to create objects instead of having the object already created on their contents.
Each one of the default items to build are now designs.
Removed access required to use the exosuit fabricators.
Removed an unused mech syringe gun design and replaced with a new one, with no cost.
Added a temporal object, /obj/item/mechavars, to be able to use initalize() for the construction time. This will be later on removed and the construction time will be ported to the design datums.
Some minors issues are still present, due to the amount of files needed to fix these, it won't be part of this commit, but a future one.
Fixes issue #3893
Removed required access to access the setting controls of the RnD console.
Noticed this while looking over my PR, by storing (and trusting) the escaped version, an admin could edit this in vv and do unspeakable things to the database
Rather then making a new query for each feedback item.
Each query can take between 25ms and 100ms, and this is a static per-query overhead, so removing the 60 or so needless querys will speed things up.
- emits quantum-coupled bluespace beams
- high research requirements: combat 6, materials 6, bluespace 4
- sprites by Nienhaus. Big thanks!
- electrodes now colored with the color var
