# Anomalous Research
|
|
|
|
Anomalous Research is a subdepartment of Epistemics focused around the containment and manipulation of various unique anomalies.
|
|
|
|
## Equipment
|
|
<Box>
|
|
<GuideEntityEmbed Entity="AnomalyScanner"/>
|
|
<GuideEntityEmbed Entity="MachineAnomalyVessel"/>
|
|
<GuideEntityEmbed Entity="MachineAPE"/>
|
|
</Box>
|
|
|
|
Scanners, vessels, and A.P.E.s are all used in the containment and observation of anomalies.
|
|

|
The anomaly generator can produce a random anomaly somewhere on the station at the cost of plasma.
|
|
|
|
## Anomalies
|
|
Anomalies are static objects that appear on the station. They cannot be moved, and must be worked around, no matter their location.
|
|
<!--Delta V: Added the information that anomalies can affect people instead of being stationary.-->
|
|
However, this is not the case all anomalies. You may find an anomaly on a person! These anomalies can be moved as they hijack their hosts body instead!
|
|
|
|
<Box>
|
|
<GuideEntityEmbed Entity="AnomalyPyroclastic"/>
|
|
</Box>
|
|
|
|
Each anomaly has three main stats, two of which can be seen in anomaly scans:
|
|
|
|
- [color=#a4885c]Severity:[/color] This is a numerical value corresponding to the danger of an anomaly.
|
|
- [color=#a4885c]Stability:[/color] Shown as either decaying, stable, or growing; this is how frequently and widespread the effects will be.
|
|
- [color=#a4885c]Health:[/color] Health is a hidden stat. It decreases when you use [color=#a4885c]containment particles[/color] on an anomaly. If you use too many, the anomaly will disappear.
|
|
|
|
## Pulses and Supercritical Events
|
|
The most dangerous effects of anomalies are seen during [color=#a4885c]pulses[/color] and [color=#a4885c]supercritical events[/color].
|
|
|
|
Pulses are semi-regular bursts of anomalous effects. They're moderately dangerous, scaling with both the severity and stability of an anomaly.
|
|
|
|
Supercritical events are only seen if an anomaly reaches 100% severity. If this happens, the anomaly will swell before disappearing into a catastrophic event. These should be avoided at all costs!
|
|
|
|
If, however...An anomaly on a person goes critical, [color=red]they will explode and be gibbed.[/color] Along with a catastrophic event occuring.
