ACME Magnet

ACME Magnet is an item.

Standard Use

 * The non-Soulbound, Magnetic items from all other players within range of you (in the instant of time of use) are removed from those players' inventories and attracted towards you. The item attraction/side-effects activate as follows: A random player is selected, then all of their items are attracted in a random order; this repeats until all items are attracted.
 * Frozen items are guaranteed to Incapacitate you and will not have any of their below listed side-effects.
 * Explosive items have a chance to explode on impact. Glue Mine, Hand Grenade, Holy Hand Grenade, Explosive Sheep, and Spider Mine will explode as if used standardly, also you will not acquire the item.
 * Note that the space you are on at the moment the Magnet is used will be the space all explosions caused by the Magnet use occur even if you are moved by an attracted (Holy) Hammer before then. However, you will be affected by the explosion as if you are in a 0 space radius of the explosion no matter how far away you have moved from that space.
 * Deadly Item, Anvil, Axe, and Chainsaw are guaranteed to kill you. Deadly Item won't be obtained, but Anvil, Axe, and Chainsaw will.
 * Gun, Time Travel Condom, Sword, Ice Sculpting Saw, and Skinning Knife have a chance to kill on impact.
 * Sword, Skinning Knife, and Ice Sculpting Saw will be acquired even if they kill you.
 * Gun and Time Travel Condom will not be acquired if they kill you.
 * (Holy) Hammer, Bucket (Of Water), another ACME Magnet, ACME Pogo-Stick, Egg Launcher, Hookshot, Mining Pick, Pot O' Gold, (Spiked) Shield, Spanner, Shovel, Trash Can, Vendroid, and Mecha Egg have a chance to Incapacitate you; they will be acquired regardless.
 * (Holy) Hammer has an additional side-effect of knocking you forwards or backwards 6-10(?) spaces. Whether or not a Hammer knocks backwards or forwards depends on the space where the Magnet is used relative to the space where each Hammer came from.
 * Teleporter may lock onto to you, leaving the Teleporter Activator in the hands of the player who held the Teleporter.
 * Serrated Shiv may give you 2 turns of Bleeding if you don't have it or instead kill you if you are already Bleeding.
 * Teleporter Activator, Screw, Unlabeled Can, Tasty Tongue Piercing, Reset Button, Brain Massager, Plumbus, Bling Bot, Duel Dissk Of Sick Burns, Defective Turret, Liquid Nitrogen, Butter Bot, Solar Panel, Cocktail Shaker, (Damaged) Iron Helmet, Go-Kart, Lean Mean Caffeine Machine, Lightning Rod, Jackhammer, Fuzzy Cuffs, Cutlass, Katana, Flintlock, Double-Barreled Shotgun, Minigun, Bazooka, Police Badge, Artendellen, and Finity Gauntlet/Completed Finity Gauntlet have no side-effects.
 * For all items without a special case or if the special case above does not trigger for that item, the item goes into your inventory.

Related Effects

 * Thick Hide: Prevents an attracted Sword, Hammer/Holy Hammer, Serrated Shiv, Axe, or Ice Sculpting Saw's side-effect from affecting you. (You don't move forward like when Thick Hide usually activates.)
 * Bulletproof: Prevents being killed by an attracted Gun.

Event Use

 * Give to the Damaged Construct of the Archaeology Dig. Counts as 1 item.
 * Give to Princess Bubblegum in Ooo to gain an Orb and a Candy Cane.
 * Give to Marceline in Ooo.
 * Use while in range of another player who has the Time Bomb during Bomb!/It's A Bomb!/Throw It Away!/Sucks To Be Dead; you trigger and are affected by the Bombs Are Magnetic! subevent, which acts exactly like the KABOOM! subevent except for an additional effect of the Bomb somehow killing you. No other subevent will occur. (Time Bomb's relation to the standard use of using an ACME Magnet needs testing.)
 * Insert into the Weeping Angel Interface in the Secret Room related to The Doctor In The TARDIS.

Other Item Use

 * Anvil
 * Wanted Poster: Item

Item Recipes

 * ACME Magnet + Gloves = Magneto Gloves
 * ACME Magnet + Tractor Beam = The finish line is pulled 10-15 spaces initially in the combiner's direction. (It moves behind the combiner if they are on the same space as the finish line.) Note that the finish line will finish moving the 10-15 spaces in the direction and not stop even if it passes through the combiner.
 * ACME Magnet + Improbability Device = The combiner attracts (effectively steals) 1 random item each from (up to) 4 random other players.

Strategy

 * Because magnetic items that can kill on impact can be common, it may be wise to protect oneself with effects like Life Shield, Magic Star, Auto Resurrection, or Schrödinger's Box. For all but the last, be mindful that you are only as safe as the number of deaths those effects can prevent.
 * For the same reason, effects with a benefit on death such as Life Insurance, Soul Speed, and Drain Soul can be counted on triggering, though there is no guarantee.
 * For the same reason, methods of self-revival such as Soulstone, Green Mushroom, Life Ward, an ethereal Revive spell, an ethereal Defibrillator, or another player's Curse Of Resurrection are effective for getting back on your feet.
 * Because magnetic items that can incapacitate you or skip your turn can be common, it may be wise to have some method of removing or preventing these effects like Man Mode, Crystal Meth, or Focus.
 * For the same reason, items that skip your turn can be used without worrying about that drawback since you already expect to have your turn skipped, like a preemptive Glue Mine, or tossing Hand Grenades or activating Explosive Sheep behind yourself.
 * For the same reason, items that incapacitate you can be used without worrying about that drawback, such as Donuts or back-fired Extendo Fists.
 * If you think you'll die, you don't need to worry about skip-a-turn or incapacitate effects either.
 * Have one of these on hand before early reinforcements to take advantage of many players being clustered together and likely having many magnetic items between them.
 * Use near a player in later stages of the game to attract all magnetic items they've built up.
 * Use near a player that you know has another ACME Magnet to get all their magnetic items, prevent them from taking yours, and get another ACME Magnet to be able to attract items again in the future.

Trivia

 * Iron Coin is Magnetic, though it can never be attracted by a Magnet since it is Soulbound by default.
