About the PR

This PR adds 7 rare visual variations to the Immovable Rod, making it possible for other wacky items to replace the basic metal rod.

The current items have been added:

• Mop
• Hammer
• Shark (Plushie)
• Banana
• Clown
• Throngler
• Gibstick

Why / Balance

Gives the immovable rod some more flavor and fits the announcement warning text, which is non-specific as of what item hits the station. The variations will not change the effect of the immovable rod.

To keep the variations rare and interesting when they happen, the rod has only a 1 in 10 chance to be replaced by a variation. All variations have an equal chance to be chosen.

Technical details

Uses a similar pick system to the Wilhelm scream easter egg, though with prototypes instead of sound files.
