1. Autoinjectors
(in game animation goes through rainbow colors)
Autoinjectors can provide any vanilla potion effects and some modded potion effects. It currently supports Thorium, Calamity and AlchemistNPC(Lite version too).
There is autoinjector for all vanilla effect and another one for mod effects.
They are sold by mechanic for 10 gold each.
For autoinjectors to work, you have to provide samples to it. Samples are made with seeded petri dish and some other materials.
Petri dish can be crafted with some glass and gel. Then you can "plant" herb seeds in the dish by crafting them.
Seeded petri dishes can be right-clicked to harvest them : they will give 1 herb and 1~2 seeds.
Seeded petri dishes can also be used to make samples. Consult the guide or recipe browser for the recipes.
Samples have to be inserted to the autoinjectors for them to work. This is done by righ-clicking the autoinjector while grabbing a sample.
Then you have to open the toggle UI(defaults to K for vanilla and L for modded) and activate the power. You can't toggle on powers that you don't have samples for.
Autoinjectors use your money to grant effects. The tooltip will tell you how much it is using at the moment. Some effects are cheap and some are expensive.

They are made with 16 chlorophyte bars with some ammos.
