- | ====== Science Substances ====== | ||
- | Science Substances are consumable items that are used to improve other equipment or characters temporarily. They can be found at events, be part of your [[Groups]] income, or can be synthesised by [[Professional Skills#Scientist]] characters between events with their leftover Research Points. These items are great ways to boost your gear for a day, or for the duration of a difficult mission. | ||
- | |||
- | There are 3 types of Science Substances; [[Exotic Particles]], [[Exotic Reagents]] and [[Exotic Biotics]] (One type for each of the 3 Science Specialisations in the game). Each type can be used by scientist characters to enhance certain classes of objects for a short duration. The lammies for these items will have removable stickers which can be stuck to other lammies to indicate a change in their properties. | ||
- | |||
- | Physreps for science substances might be a small test tube of mineral samples, vial of coloured liquid or small containment vessel. | ||

- | ===== Rules ===== | ||
- | |||
- | * Science Substances are single-use items represented by a printed sticker with the details of what the substance does. | ||
- | * To use a Science Substance, attach the sticker to a valid lammie, and record the date and/or time of use (the sticker will have a space indicating what to record). | ||
- | * Stickers attached to lammies without a readable date/time are not valid. | ||
- | * If the sticker degrades or comes off the lammie then it is wasted. | ||
- | * Remove the sticker when its duration expires. | ||
- | * Stickers cannot be transferred to other lammies/items once attached. | ||
- | * A lammie can only have one sticker attached to it at a time. If you use a newer science substance on an item with a sticker, the effect of the first immediately ends. | ||
- | * The science substance continues to have its effect as long as the duration hasn't expired and the sticker remains attached and readable. | ||

- | For the specific rules for each Substance, see the pages on [[Exotic Particles]], [[Exotic Reagents]] and [[Exotic Biotics]] |
