# Alchemy
The alchemy system will encourage interaction between players. Via said interaction, items will be able to be made that will be rather powerful in their abilities.
## Potion Formula
Potions will be derived from the expectations of what the potion does. For example, the "Slip'n'Slide Potion" will need arbitary items from the janitor and clown and a couple other items. 
## Potion Ideas
- Wide Eye Potion - Removes anything that limits vision (gas masks, etc.)
    - Scientist worn goggles
    - Blessed carrot from chaplain blessing food (new)
    - 30u of Oculine
- Item Enhancement Potion - /obj/item/upgradescroll
    - 30u of Pwr Game
- Jaunt Potion - Is a single use juant
- Jumping Potion - If you jump... you get instantly gibbed
- Gluttony Potion - It is called the Gluttony potion but it keeps you always full
    - Big Blue Burger
    - Crazy hamburger
    - 30u of Nutriment
- Slip'n'Slide Potion - Makes you constantly slide as if on spacelube
    - Janitor worn gloves (new)
    - Clown worn shoes (new)

    - Non-SSD brain
    - 10u BZ Metabolites

- Speedy Surgery Potion - Causes surgery to be twice as fast
- Corpse Heft Potion - Allows corpses to be picked up incredibly quickly

## Ideas on implementation
Some ideas can simply be taken from how other things work, the item enhancement potion will probably be just a simple resprite of the mentioned item since the functionality is already there. Some will probably require new mechanics and are marked with a (new) which just means I do not know of any existing system and thus a new one will probably have to be made.
## Ideas on potion recipe discovery
A P0T10N33R1NG skillchip that adds some like 'What a good ingredient!' or 'This would work well with (other ingredient in a random recipe)' or 'This can be used to (insert potion effect)' when you examine a valid potion ingredient.
## Disclaimer
This is heavily in progress and will probably change a ton. Feel free to @Novakid on discord if you have any ideas or comments.
