Suggestion Title: Meth Usage
Suggestion Description: Meth grams when consumed should grant the player a percentage buff in their running speed.

I have a separate suggestion asking for it to buff Dexterity and Regeneration also instead of just Strength, however with how unpopular Meth is for selling or personal use, both of these benefits seem appropriate to make it actually desirable beyond just farming org xp and instead actually useful for personal use.

(Other suggestion:https://perpheads.com/threads/drug-use.62612/)

Why should this be added?:
-  Pairs nicely with the recent update adding Gas Masks, With more popularity for Meth more meth labs explode so more stuff for Tier 3 TFU and FireFighters.
- Meth is very unpopular despite how actually great the system for producing it is. This, unfortunately, is due to the lack of reason for one to go through all the effort of producing it as $100 per gram in the scarce yield you get becomes unworthy after the excitement factor is gone from doing it the first few times or when you don't need org XP.
- This would make meth better than Coca Leaves, Meaning similar to how Coca leaves are sold, Meth Grams will become even more valuable (like they should be progressively as they are the hardest to produce). Therefore, Player to Player trades of this substance will become common-practice so more roleplay deals occur.

What negatives could this have?:
- If Meth gains more popularity, more buildings blow up and the server becomes more disturbed. There really isn't a limit beyond the knowledge and effort required to cook meth, but with the knowledge of how to start being openly available, anyone can try but most won't succeed leading to inconvenience for uninvolved parties like new players or other bases in the vicinity.
- While this will make it appear "Over-Powered," when it's used correctly, When in stressful situations it won't be that easy. A player needs to know their limits and carefully intake the correct dosage or else the consequences are fatal, on top of everything, their screen is progressively obstructed the more they intake. This buff is what will turn Meth from a highly unpopular drug, especially for personal use, into a balanced tool that can either really hinder your plays or give you a considerable advantage at a cost of investment.

What problem would this suggestion solve?: Meth is highly unpopular for personal use, production to sell or to trade amongst actual players at the moment. Cocaine is the prominent drug with far more deals happening using Coca Leaves and people powergrowing for it to be their main source of income. This aims to at least help buff Meth so that it can be desire-able in ways that will hopefully make it more popular and useful beyond farming org xp.
 
Stuff that fucks with player speed isn’t going to be the answer to making meth more “useful” to a degree where it’s worth implementing.

As much as I want to watch a sweater hit Mach 10 speed running down the highway pursued by half the police force on foot, This wouldn’t be a very balanced decision to come to.
