Icon Green Jelly
Description: You produce an acidic green jelly from your armpits
  • For 1 Action Point, you can break an electronic object. It will take a few cycles for the object to break down.
Learned by: Icon Mush 5 If Icon Mush: Only

Green Jelly permits the Icon Mush to forcibly break a targeted equipment in a random amount of cycles. The cycles to destruction are displayed in the action's room log.

This is basically a specific form of Icon Saboteur, which lets you break a smaller selection of equipment more easily and with less risk of detection (except with Icon Cameras, which pick up uses of Green Jelly, however not successful Sabotages).

Icon Support Drones make for a great target, as they usually fly around unprotected areas and their broken condition is easy to miss. Sliming the BIOS Terminal also makes for great mischief, particularly after it has been tampered with through direct access or Icon NERON Depression.

Sabotaging NERON's Core itself, the Research Terminal or the Planet Scanner (in the engine room) can delay progress in the respective fields at critical times, yet might only cause trouble for a couple cycles depending on crew vigilance. However, in the case of Research, even that can be effective early on - delaying Antispore Gas and Constipaspore Serum - but will also be rather obvious, as terminals rarely break that early into the game.

Icon Mush Icon Technicians may use Green Jelly as a bonus avenue of excuses for being Icon Dirty, since broken vital equipment is always a good excuse to perform "unlucky" repairs.
