* Replaces the Exosuit Materials 2 experiment with one about equipping mechs rather than destroying them. (#80267) <!-- Write **BELOW** The Headers and **ABOVE** The comments else it may not be viewable. --> <!-- You can view Contributing.MD for a detailed description of the pull request process. --> ## About The Pull Request Replaces "Exosuit Materials 2: Excessive Damage Test" with "Exosuit Materials 2: Load Strain Test". Rather than building and then destroying two exosuits, you now equip them with any two (compatible) main equipment pieces. Once the experiment is done, you'll have two exosuits still, so consider making exosuits that you can donate to other crew afterwards. Note that the exosuit *has* to be built by the crew. Round-start exosuits (or those obtained through other means like the nuke ops' uplink) will not work. <!-- Describe The Pull Request. Please be sure every change is documented or this can delay review and even discourage maintainers from merging your PR! --> ## Why It's Good For The Game The idea of creating and destroying a few rounds of mechs sounds like a neat concept. But in practice, it burns through station resources for no real good reason, and is somewhat antithetical to the idea of robotics making mechs for other departments. With this change, you're still required to make the two mechs if you want the discount, but now they'll be available afterwards. If someone has requested a mech for their department, for example, you can now accomplish that and part of this experiment simultaneously. <!-- Argue for the merits of your changes and how they benefit the game, especially if they are controversial and/or far reaching. If you can't actually explain WHY what you are doing will improve the game, then it probably isn't good for the game in the first place. --> ## Changelog <!-- If your PR modifies aspects of the game that can be concretely observed by players or admins you should add a changelog. If your change does NOT meet this description, remove this section. Be sure to properly mark your PRs to prevent unnecessary GBP loss. You can read up on GBP and it's effects on PRs in the tgstation guides for contributors. Please note that maintainers freely reserve the right to remove and add tags should they deem it appropriate. You can attempt to finagle the system all you want, but it's best to shoot for clear communication right off the bat. --> 🆑 add: Adds a new discount experiment for unlocking the combat exosuit nodes - complete it by scanning two exosuits with equipment in the left and right hand slots. This replaces the prior discount experiment about destroying exosuits. /🆑 <!-- Both 🆑's are required for the changelog to work! You can put your name to the right of the first 🆑 if you want to overwrite your GitHub username as author ingame. --> <!-- You can use multiple of the same prefix (they're only used for the icon ingame) and delete the unneeded ones. Despite some of the tags, changelogs should generally represent how a player might be affected by the changes rather than a summary of the PR's contents. --> * Replaces the Exosuit Materials 2 experiment with one about equipping mechs rather than destroying them. --------- Co-authored-by: zxaber <37497534+zxaber@users.noreply.github.com>
