Adds syndiesoap to gangtools, purchasable by all gang types for 5 influence.

From this suggestion.

I'm very open to feedback.

@PKPenguin321 Syndicate soap stuns for like 7 seconds, will be kind of a joke to spam this and implant sec before they can react.

Would be better if it was regular/gib soap or something.

Syndicate soap stuns for like 7 seconds

as far as i can tell from the code, the only difference between soaps is the time it takes to clean things with them, with syndiesoap being the fastest. there is no difference in stun times

I'm like 99% sure that syndi soap stuns for longer than regular soap

Gib soap would be thematic

I considered gib soap too, but it doesn't clean as quickly as syndie soap, and if we use syndie soap it might help break some meta around traitors and gangs. If a handful of people all say they want gib soap, I'd be down for that.

If you can find code to prove this/find someone who can find code to prove this, I'll change it to a different soap type. I've never heard of this before and can't find anything related to it in the code. I think you may have just heard a myth.

soap op tbh. it is a pocket stun with skill based ranged application(resting at not ggnore but lower than something like disabler spams). Grab and slip is a fast, silent stun-baton. Are you sure gangs need this?

are we discussing soap competitive play

@Robustin

Yea I'd rather not expand the slip meme meta if at all possible.

Yes goofball because soap is a legitimately deadly weapon in our combat system stun=kill or worse. If this does get added it should be ether marked up with a giant G or say its "Stamped with 's logo" just so you can tell its a bad persons item. also lets you remove enemy tags and place yours elsewhere. This is better then a switchblade and should be priced accordingly.

@Iamgoofball

i'm not going to buy into "its better than a switchblade" but i'll accept that the fast tag removal is a good point, making it gang colored might be a good idea

@duncathan

Make it gib soap
Thematic and not too fast in terms of tag removal

@Robustin

If someone is chasing you its virtually impossible to dodge a soap toss if the tosser is using hotkeys.

The stun is long enough that its essentially a free kill if nobody steps in.

Yes a switchblade is better if youre trying to chase someone down, but gangs are very much a defensive mode and being able to one-shot someone by clicking in front of them as they come at you it extremely useful.

But it makes for extremely lame combat, a dance of blades becomes slip maymays where you get to kill anyone who moves in a straight lines for more than 1 second.

From what I'm hearing, I'm thinking that if we had a suptype of soap that could clean but wasn't slippery, that would work. Problem is, I have no idea how to do that.

@octareenroon91

Down on Zaers/-tg-station we have soaps with varying stun powers.

The Crossed() function on soaps sends some literal numbers to slip(). Give soaps vars in place of those numbers and different soaps can have different stun/weaken times.

Why do gangers even need soap
take it off the corpse of your foe the janitor if you really want some

+. Gives Ranger a good source of soap.

This is totally unbiased.

After having a round the other day where I killed 8~ gangsters who had guns using just one bar of soap, I've decided that this would be too much of a balance issue. If anybody makes a soap that you can clean with but can't slip on, I'll gladly add that to the gangtool instead. This PR, however, is 💀 .

Soap more OP than guns
