Explosive Strength[править | править код]
For chemicals which are explosive, you may notice an 'explosive strength' listed in the description. This is a multiplier that directly affects how large of an explosion a given quantity of the reagent will produce. A few types of explosion have a 'modifier', which adds a flat amount to the size of the explosion. By default the outer 'light impact' radius of an explosion is equal to √(mod+quantity*strength)*√2, while the heavy impact radius and devastation radius is one half and one quarter of that, respectively. Chemical explosions are not a subject to the standard TTV Bombcap. Eventough it doesn't have a hardcoded maxcap currently the biggest possible explosion is that of 2100u custom made chemical payload bomb, explosive strength is not affected by purity unless stated otherwise.
Note that all non-standard explosions or other AoE pyrotechnics, such as Flash Powder or Liquid Dark Matter, do not work like this. The scaling and max size of these effects vary on a case-by-case basis. In low enough levels, an explosion will purge its reagent container without causing any damage or knockback. A chemist can abuse this to clear a beaker or person of chemicals so long as they keep the doses low.
| Name | Formula | Reaction conditions | Description | Chemical properties |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Stabilizing Agent▮ | 1 part Iron 1 part Oxygen |
When mixed with certain pyrotechnics, it stabilizes the reaction and prevents the reaction for usage later. The stabilizing agent is not consumed when stabilizing explosives, and one unit is enough to stabilize any amount of explosives. This does not work on everything, so be warned! Also turns plasma into stable plasma (which can already be dispensed from chem dispenser) if mixed 1:1. | 0.4 units per tick | |
| Fluorosurfactant▮ | 2 parts Carbon 2 parts Fluorine |
Creates a large amount of foam when mixed with an equal amount of water. This foam carries any reagents along with it in the container, allowing you to apply reagents to large areas at a time. The foam will apply any carried reagents to any floors, objects, people or animals in the area of the foam. The reagents will be absorbed through a mob's exposed skin and somewhat through clothes unless completely impermeable(MODsuit/biohazard/medical gear). The less foam used, the more reagent will be delivered into a person's system. Foam is slippery! Can not react in a body. | 0.4 units per tick | |
| Smoke▮ | 1 part Phosphorus 1 part Potassium |
This creates a large cloud of smoke that will take on the properties of everything (if anything) in the container of the reaction. The chemicals in the smoke will touch and react with everything that the smoke touches. Mobs caught within the smoke cloud without wearing a gas mask or breathing through a gas tank will ingest the smoke chemicals. Great for distributing toxins in a crowded area. Can be stabilized into Smoke Powder with Stabilizing Agent. | N/A | |
| Smoke Powder▮ | 1 part Phosphorus 1 part Potassium 1 part Iron (catalyst)
1 part Oxygen |
The stabilized version of Smoke - only one third as effective as the unstabilized chemical reaction. Heat to 374K to activate. Can not react in a body. | 0.4 units per tick | |
| Flash Powder▮ | 1 part Aluminium 1 part Potassium |
Flashes in a radius that scales up with the amount detonated. Can be stabilized with Stabilizing Agent. If stabilized, heat to 374K to activate. | 0.4 units per tick | |
| Phlogiston▮ | 1 part Phosphorus 1 part Sulfuric Acid |
Turns into a spreading plasma fire if not stabilized during mixing. Makes you burn longer, and ignites you. Deals increasing fire damage based on how much you're burning up to 6 fire damage every 2 seconds. Can be stabilized with Stabilizing Agent. | 0.4 units per tick | |
| Napalm▮ | 1 part Oil 1 part Welding Fuel 1 part Carbon 1 part Welding Fuel |
A substance that burns for much longer than other fuels. Inject it into someone and then apply heat for a warm toasty fireball human. | 0.4 units per tick | |
| Sonic Powder▮ | 1 part Oxygen 1 part Cola |
Deafens in a radius that scales up with the amount detonated. Can be stabilized with Stabilizing Agent. If stabilized, heat to 374K to activate. | 0.4 units per tick | |
| Pyrosium▮ | 1 part Stable Plasma 1 part Radium |
When first mixed it becomes 20 Kelvin cold. Instantly consumes all liquid Oxygen to heat its container for each unit of Oxygen consumed. This does not expend the Pyrosium, so 1u will have the same effect as 50u. Does nothing whatsoever without being mixed with liquid Oxygen. Does not react with the oxygen in air. In a body 0.5u oxygen will be consumed every tick to increase body temperature by 15. | 0.2 units per tick | |
| Cryostylane▮
|
1 part Ice 1 part Stable Plasma |
Min temp: -200K
|
Induces a cryostasis like state in a patient's organs, preventing them from decaying while dead. Slows down surgery while in a patient however. Will progressively consume all liquid Oxygen to cool its container for each unit of Oxygen consumed. This does not expend the Cryostylane, so 1u will have the same effect as 50u. Does not react with the oxygen in air. In a body 0.5u oxygen will be consumed every tick to decrease body temperature by 15.
Special reaction mechanics :The colder it is during the reaction, the lower the purity will be. |
Rate: 0.02u/tick
|
| Chlorine Trifluoride▮ | 3 parts Fluorine 1 part Chlorine |
When created it will create a temporary 3x3 fireball. Becomes 1000K when first mixed. A flammable substance so dangerous it can instantly melt floor or floor plating with high amounts. It lights you on fire when it comes into contact with you, and if it gets inside of you will deal 6 burn per tick from the inside. It metabolizes out of your body extremely fast however. | 4 units per tick | |
| Sorium▮ | 1 part Carbon 1 part Mercury |
When detonated it will send any movable object or person flying away from the detonation point. Can be stabilized with Stabilizing Agent. If stabilized, heat to 474K to activate. | 0.4 units per tick | |
| Liquid Dark Matter▮ | 1 part Carbon 1 part Stable Plasma |
When detonated it will suck in any movable object or person. Can be stabilized with Stabilizing Agent. If stabilized, heat to 474K to activate. | 0.4 units per tick | |

| Holy Explosion | 1 part Potassium 1 part Holy Water |
This explodes immediately on mixing. If it combined at least 75 of each reagent, it results in a more powerful explosion with an explosive strength of 0.125, which also paralyzes and reveals revenants and sets nearby cultists on fire.
