ARCANE'S GUIDE TO COOL SHIT FOR STRONG LADS

Welcome, welcome wanderer. Here I will teach you to be as cool as I am, with some neat __tips n tricks__, namely of things I've added to the game.

Cool Admin event items

We got PUZZLE TOOLS. It's very uncommonly used, because it's only used on one ruin, and using puzzle tools onstation would be predictable and suck ass greatly. That's why I've got this here, for you, brave wanderer to use.

  • Holobox puzzles.

Basically, box sliding puzzles. They look like a crate, and they slide around like a crate. When moved onto a hologrid, the hologrid will gray itself out, signifying that it's been claimed. Once grayed out, it will produce it's reward, which can be Var Edited to be whatever you want. Cash, weapons, machines, a wall, you name it, you can make it spawn there.

Bonus! Hologrids are a subtype of pressure plates, and when spawned, you can also var edit it to pulse a frequency. If building an event tool, or a bomb, an assembly, something that can be operated by frequency, you can set it up to work with a pressure plate!

  • Keycards and Keycard doors.

We also have keycards. Spawn the in, edit the puzzle_id of both the door and the card to match eachother, and bam, it'll open the door. Note, keycards are single use only, so once it's opened a door, it won't close it. Be creative! Maybe make a hologrid drop the key to a door, or make it spawn as the drop from a boss monster.
