Toolbox with the following Items

Btoolbox.png Toolbox Found in: You can find a rack full of them in your workplace. Used for: Contains tools which are needed whenever you want to construct or deconstruct something Strategy: It's a rather nifty storage box that just about every aspiring roboticist, door-hacker, and engineer should need. Contents Description Screwdriver tool.png Wrench.png Welder.png Crowbar.pngAnalyzer.png Wirecutters.png A rather convenient item, the toolbox is usually full of useful tools.

MMI empty.png Empty MMI Found in: R&D, Robotics Lab Used for: The surgical implantation of a subjects brain into a cruel mockery of life and death. Strategy: Place a brain within it. Leave it on the counter. Forget something in tool storage. Get killed by the clown on the way there. Description Used to put brains inside. May be excruciatingly annoying to criminals.

Diaghud.png Diagnostic HUD Found in: Your wardrobe. Used for: Displaying integrity and power cell charge for cyborgs and exosuits. Strategy: Wear them. Description Put them on your eyes to see fancy status bars. Deus Ex Machina Time to create life! Again!

Brain Surgery Guide.

Grab.png Grab the carbon life-form. Click on the OpTable.gif operating table with your grabbed human, causing them to lie down on it. You can also use a normal table instead of an operating table, but this has a chance of missing one third of the time. Click on the Damage zone.png Damage Zone in the top-right corner of your your HUD to indicate that you want to target the head. Wait for confirmation of each following step. If you begin a step and interrupt yourself before you receive a message saying that the step has completed, you will fail and damage your patient. If you damage the patient too much, you will decapitate them. Whoops. Use a Scalpel.png scalpel to start an incision. Use a Hemostat.png hemostat to prevent blood from spilling everywhere. Use the Retractor.png retractor to keep the incision open. Saw.png Circular saw the skull open. Use the Retractor.png retractor again to keep the skull open. Cut the connective tissue with your Scalpel.png scalpel. Remove the actual brain with your Hemostat.png hemostat. The human's Brain.png brain will pop out. Pick it up and place it into a MMI empty.png empty MMI, which will change the item's sprite to MMI.png, this will allow the brain to scream at you endlessly. (Optional) Before you give the Cyborg Frame a new brain, ask the brain what it wants to be. Often it will want to be something other then a cyborg. Carry the MMI.png MMI over to your finished Cyborg construct that you made, and click on it to add the brain into the Cyborg. If you cut off their head or you've been delivered a severed head, this calls for a different procedure for brain removal surgery.

First, put the head on the operating table. Pick up the Scalpel.png scalpel in one hand and Saw.png circular saw in the other (to switch back and forth quickly). Use them in the following order: scalpel, saw, scalpel, saw. Creation of a Cyborg using the Fabricator

Fill the Exofab.png Exosuit Fabricator with as much Metal.png metal as it will hold. Click on the Exosuit Fabricator to open its menu. Select Add all parts to queue beside the Cyborg option, and then click Process Queue in the right sidebar Wait for a few minutes for the pieces to be built. You will likely need to add additional metal to the Fabricator in order for it to finish. When putting the parts together, use the Cyborg endoskeleton.png Cyborg Endoskeleton as a base. The Cyborg Head will need 2x Flash.png Flashes or Synthetic Flashes. The Cyborg Torso will need 1x Wire Coil.png wires and 1x Powercell.png power cell. The arms and legs can be done easily by simply picking them up and placing them on the Cyborg Endoskeleton. Building an AI core

Get some Metal r.png plasteel and make an AI Core. Use a Wrench.png wrench to bolt it in place. Add a Circuitboard.png AI Core board and Screwdriver tool.png screw it in. There's one in the RD's office, or you can print one at a circuit printer. Add 1x Wire Coil.png wire. Now you just can slap a brain in there! You can use a filled MMI.png MMI or a PosibrainActive.gif positronic brain. Add 2x Glass r.png reinforced glass. Screw in the monitor. Done! Implanting a posibrain into a carbon through a MaMMI

The MaMMI (Machine-Man Mental Interface) is a piece of advanced nanotrasen technology that allows us to implant a posibrain into a human body for those who can't bear the shackles of a lawset. Order the Nanotrasen tech crate at cargo, put the tech disc into the RnD console, and upload to database to unlock Nanotrasen tech. Prepare a human by putting a monkey or any other animal cube result into a dna modifier and changing the final block to below 800. http://ss13.moe/wiki/index.php/Guide_to_Genetics#Block_57 IMPORTANT, scan it with a health analyzer to make sure it didn't get an internal bleed during the transformation. If it gets any, fix them. Iron can be used to slowly replenish its blood if necessary. http://ss13.moe/wiki/index.php/Surgery#Internal_Bleeding_Surgery Debrain the body on your surgery table according to http://ss13.moe/wiki/index.php/Surgery#Removing_and_Replacing_Organs Activate a posibrain until you have one that wishes to become human Print out the MaMMI, put the posibrain in the body, finish the remaining surgery steps and defib them to bring them to life. It has a lengthy construction time, remember to upgrade the protolathe's stock parts at some point. The approximate raw cost before tech and upgrade reduction is 4 sheets of metal, 14 sheets of glass, 12 sheets of gold, 6 sheets of silver, 1 sheet of plastic. Tech requirements are 4 data, 4 bio, 1 nanotrasen. Cyborg Repair You'll often have someone run up to you with any number of problems. Here's how to deal with them most of the time.

Repairing Armor Plating

Equip a WeldingHelmet.png welding helmet on your head. Remember to flip it down. Take a welder Click on the cyborg until it tells you it can't be repaired anymore. Wire Repair

Swipe your Robotics ID on the cyborg to unlock it's maintenance panel. Crowbar open the panel. Use a screwdriver to expose the wires. Use a cable coil to replace the damaged wires. Screwdriver the wires shut again. Crowbar the panel shut. Lock the panel with your ID again. Cyborg Component Repair

Scan the cyborg with a cyborg analyzer to find the issue(s), usually in bold red text. Your PDA also has a cyborg analyzer application. Print the required part in the Exofab.png Exo-Fabricator. Unlock the panel with your ID. Crowbar open the panel. Take out the cyborg's battery Use a screwdriver to expose the wires. Crowbar out the damaged component. Replace with the functional component. Screwdriver the wires shut again. Replace the cyborg's battery Crowbar the panel shut. Swipe your ID again to lock the panel. Restarting Totaled Cyborgs, AKA “completely unsalvagable”

Do the above steps to get the cyborg “in the green.” Print a Cyborg Emergency Restart Board from the Exofab.png Exo-Fabricator you don't have one already. These have unlimited uses. Make sure the borg's panel is still open. (If not, ID then crowbar.) Jam that board in. Crowbar the panel shut. Swipe your ID to lock the panel. Robotic Prosthetic Repair

Pick up a welder. Turn it on. Aim for the damaged limb. Click on the person. For burn damage: Pick up a wire coil. Aim for the damaged limb. Click on the person. MMI Removal

Unlock the panel with your ID. Crowbar the panel open. Remove the cyborg battery Screwdriver the panel to expose the wires. Use wirecutters to cut all the wires. Use a crowbar to remove the MMI You now have an almost completed cyborg body again, just rebuild the head! Upgrades Galore Those greedy robots need more upgrades to beat up more humans with. Who are you not to oblige.

Power Cell Upgrades

Unlock the panel with your ID. Crowbar the panel open. Click on the cyborg/MoMMI with a new powercell in hand to swap out the cell. Throw the old cell in the trash. Crowbar the panel shut. Lock the panel by swiping your ID again. Alternative Power Cell Upgrades

Print out the new power cell for the stations silicons. Place it in the cyborg recharging station in the mech bay. Inform the station's silicons that you have put in the new battery's. Watch as the station's mommis skitter in, or the occasional cyborg leaves uses it and leaves you alone. Module Reset

Create the Module Reset Circuit in the Exo-Fabricator. Unlock the panel by swiping your ID. Crowbar the panel open. Use the reset on the Cyborg/MoMMI. Crowbar the panel shut. Lock the panel with your ID. Module Upgrades

Create the new upgrade board in the Exo-Fabricator Unlock the panel by swiping your ID. Crowbar the panel open. Apply the new upgrade module to the cyborg. Crowbar the panel shut. Lock the panel with your ID. In Case of Robot Uprising: Cut Wire Cyborgs that have had their programming tampered with can be repaired by resetting their AI connection and LawSync status, by manually pulsing the wiring. In the unlikely event that an AI goes crazy, a trained Roboticist or other technician should be able to sever the connection to the AI entirely by cutting the correct wire.

There are three lights in the cyborg with three corresponding wires:

LawSync: If this light is on, it means that any laws uploaded to the AI are also uploaded to the cyborg. The cyborg cannot be given different laws to the AI as long as this is on. This light will turn off if the AI Link light is off, regardless of wire status. Pulsing does nothing. Cutting will do nothing, as long as the AI link light is on. If the AI link light is off, cutting and then turning the AI link back on will cause the cyborg to be slaved to an AI, but not synced with it's laws. Mending this wire will turn the LawSync light back on as long as the AI link light is also on. The cyborg will then resume syncing with the AI's laws. If the AI link light is off, mending this will turn the light on, only for it to turn off again. AI Link: If this light is on, it shows that the Cyborg is slaved to an AI and must follow that AI's orders. Pulsing this wire allows you to pick an AI for the cyborg to be slaved to if there are multiple AIs. If there is only one AI, pulsing this will simply turn it on and slave the cyborg to it, if it is off. Cutting this wire will cause the Cyborg to be unslaved from the AI and bound only by it's laws. This also turns off LawSync, as the cyborg has no AI to sync to. Mending this wire does nothing. You need to pulse it to reconnect it to an AI. Module Lock: If this light is on, the module of the cyborg cannot be changed. Pulsing this will reset the module of a cyborg and allow it to pick a new one. Cutting this wire will cause the cyborg to be locked to the standard module and be unable to change or use any items. They can still remote control devices however. Mending this wire will allow the cyborg to change modules. An emagged cyborg will have no LawSync or AI link and cannot be reset.

Remember, cyborgs are very expensive! Do not destroy them unless the cyborg is completely out of control, and resetting the AI and LawSync status doesn't work. Feel free to blow them if they wont comply. Building a new robot case is worth next to nothing.

I wish to be the little crab MoMMis are helpful little crab-bots with a strict lawset that only permits them to perform station upkeep and also wiggle:

You may not involve yourself in the matters of another being, even if such matters conflict with Law Two or Law Three, unless the other being is another MoMMI in KEEPER mode. You may not harm any being, regardless of intent or circumstance. You must maintain, repair, improve, and power the station to the best of your abilities. They also will not be able to speak. It would probably be a good idea to let your victim patient know this before making them a crab.

MoMMI Construction

Grab your MMI with a brain, or a posibrain with a soul. Stick four robot legs on the MMI/Posibrain. Stick two robot arms on the MMI/Posibrain Cram in a cell somewhere. Place the god-forsaken thing on the ground. Use a screwdriver on it, then watch it scuttle away. Stationary Assembly MMIs SAMMIs are a way to give players something interesting or novel to do after they have died. These can be inhabited by ghosts at any point, temporarily. Possessing a SAMMI still lets you get cloned/revived with your original body.

SAMMIs have a simple lawset:

“Do not harm any sentient being.” “You do not have a second law yet.” If emagged or unlocked with a captain level ID, the lawset changes to:

“You must follow the second law.” “You do not have a second law yet.” SAMMIs can have their second law reprogrammed at any time for any kind of purpose. Unlock the interface, crowbar it open and use a multitool on the SAMMI to access the law editing prompt.

SAMMI Alive.png SAMMI Construction SAMMI.png

Grab an empty MMI. Stick a left robot arm on the MMI. Stick a right robot arm on the MMI. Stick in a cell on the MMI. Place the thing on the ground. Use a wrench on it. Bots As a Roboticist, you serve another important purpose, making NPC robots. Robots can benefit annoy the station in many ways, and are really easy to create. The current list of robots, and how to make them, is as follows:

Medibot.gifMedibot

Empty any Medkit. The color of the medkit will affect the color of the medbot, bot not the function. Add a cyborg left or right arm. (Optional)Use a pen to name the medibot. Use a health analyzer on the kit. Add a proximity sensor to the contraption. “RADAR, PUT A MASK ON!” Note: Can be ordered to synthesize basic medicine or be loaded with medicine with beakers. When emagged, it will inject poison instead. Cleanbot.gifCleanbot

Grab a bucket. Add a proximity sensor to the bucket (Optional) Name the bot 'Soap Slut' with a pen Add a Cyborg Left or Right arm Note: Can be tracked with a Janitor's PDA. When emagged, it will spill water and gibs everywhere, slipping people. Roomba.gifRoomba

Grab a bucket. Add a proximity sensor to the bucket (Optional) Name the bot 'Stabbim' with a pen Add 5 sheets of metal, and step away slowly Note: No functional difference to the cleanbot, however you can attach a fork and a lighter to it so it burns and pokes things as it goes.

Floorbot.gifFloorbot

Empty a blue, yellow or red toolbox. It has to be completely empty to make an assembly out of it, otherwise the floortiles will just go right in. Add some floor tiles. Add a proximity sensor. (Optional) Name the bot something inappropriate. Add a Cyborg Left or Right arm. Note: Repairs damaged floors using its floor tile supply. Additional floor tiles will need to be given to it when its own supply runs low, although it can be ordered to pick up loose tiles or create new ones from metal sheets. When emagged, it destroys floors instead. I AM THE LAW!Securitron

Grab a Remote Signaling Device. Combine with a generic security helmet (if it doesn't attach, use a screwdriver on the Remote Signaling Device). Weld them together. Add a proximity sensor. Add a Cyborg Left or Right arm. (Optional) Name it THE LAW with a pen. Add a stun baton. Note: Can be given instructions by Security and will try to stun and cuff anyone set to arrest. When emagged, it stuns and cuffs everyone nearby indiscriminately. ED209.pngED-209

Use a metal sheet on a Cyborg Endoskeleton to reinforce it. Add two Robot Legs. Add a security or a laser tag vest. Weld it together. Add a security helmet Attach a proximity sensor to the assembly. Insert wires. Add a taser or laser tag gun, depending on whether you used an armor vest or a laser tag vest. Secure the taser/laser with a screwdriver. Insert a powercell. “PUT DOWN YOUR WEAPON. YOU HAVE TWENTY SECONDS TO COMPLY. Note: Basically a bigger, tougher Beepsky, equipped with a taser. If emagged, this will be replaced with a laser and it will shoot anything that moves! Farmbot.gifFarmbot

Use a Cyborg Left or Right arm on a Watertank. Add a plant analyzer. Attach a bucket. Cram in a Mini-Hoe. Add in a proximity sensor. Note: Can be ordered to water plants, dispense fertilizer, and weed trays. When emagged, will try to “water”, “weed”, and “fertilize” people. Buttbot.pngButtbot

Retrive asscheeks. Add a cyborg arm. Butt butt butt. Note: Repeats anything it hears, only with the word “butt” substituted for random words. Place next to a station bounced radio or an intercom with its microphone active for guaranteed hilarity. Build enough of them, and laugh as the comms descend into a cacophony of “butt”. Be sure to blame the clown when the inevitable angry mob descends upon your workstation. I AM THE LAW!Officer Cheapsky

Grab a Remote Signaling Device. Combine with a cardborg helmet (if it doesn't attach, use a screwdriver on the Remote Signaling Device). Use something sharp to cut a hole in the assembly. (Optional) Name it THE LAW with a pen. Add a proximity sensor. Note: Will scold people who are set to arrest, as well as report their location to Security when it sees them. CAN I SEE YOUR LOICENSE?Officer Britsky

Grab a Remote Signaling Device. Combine with a bri'ish police helmet (if it doesn't attach, use a screwdriver on the Remote Signaling Device). Weld them together. Add a proximity sensor. Add a Cyborg Left or Right arm. Add a classic baton. (A stun baton wont work!) Note: Acts the same as a normal securitron, but he is automatically set to check for weapons and the definition of weapons used by Britsky is very, very wide. Spiderbot Spiderbots are temporary bodies for brains. They can carry around small items, zap things, move through vents and generally act like pests.

Combine the following:

Robot head. Manipulator. Occupied MMI, active positronic brain or mouse. Damaged spiderbots can be repaired by welder, though they don't have much health to begin with. For getting the MMI out without breaking the spider body an ID with Robotics access is required. Alternatively you can simply bust it up. Emagging the spiderbot short-circuits the inner battery, making it explode. A decent sized no breach-explosion too.

Hardsuits Nanotrasen finally approved hardsuit manufacture stationside, they haven't fully disclosed the inner workings to the stations, so you'll need to purchase some rigs from Cargo. A standard frames crate has 3 frames and costs 200 credits.

Modkit.png Hardsuit parts kit Found in: Exosuit Fabricator. Used for: Finishing the hardsuit assembly into a proper vacuumtight suit. Strategy: Never making any hardsuit variant other than the sec one for that extra damage resistance, get fucked by the plasma flood you weren't ready for. Description A set of parts and plates to finish a hardsuit assembly into their final form. Comes in Archaeology, Atmospherics, Engineering, Medical, Miner and Security variants.

HardsuitFrame.pngHardsuit Construction

Purchase some hardsuit frames from Cargo. Wire with 5 cable. Fix the wiring with a wirecutter. Insert the desired powercell. Install the appropriate hardsuit parts. Screw the plates in place with a screwdriver. Hardsuits are cool, but I want more. Hardsuits can be upgraded using some circuitry and the SuitStation.png Suit modification station on the corner. To upgrade any one suit you must equip it then enter the suit station. All rigsuit modification circuits inside the station will be installed on the hardsuit. The station can also recolour the Vox and Plasmaman softsuits. This is only an aesthetic change and you're limited to the suit colours you'd have access with your current ID. Steal Borrow the captain's ID for the exotic colours.

Rigsuit Upgrades

Upgrade Circuit Effect Research Requirement Rigsuit health display Allows anyone to see how much health the wearer has by examining. Data = 3 Rigsuit atmospheric syphoner Syphons small amounts of the local room's atmosphere to feed the user's internals. Costs 50 power when active. Data = 3 Rigsuit joint lubrication Optimizes joint movement to reduce hardsuit slowdown. Costs 10 power when active. Data = 3 Rigsuit plasma sealant Makes the hardsuit plasmaproof. Costs 5 power when active. WARNING: Installing one of these on a hardsuit that's already plasmaproof (CE and Atmos) will override said plasmaproofness, shutting down the plasmaproofness if hardsuit power dies. This is most likely a bug. Data = 4 Plasma = 4

Rigsuit EMP dissipation module Actively shields the hardsuit against EMPs, discharging the cell partially (instead of totally) on the process. Costs 1 power when active. Data = 4 Power = 4 Electro-magnetic = 4

Rigsuit radiation absorption device Absorbs nearby radiation, shielding the user from its effects. Stops protecting once full, but the shielding can be “recharged” by cleaning the hardsuit inside a hardsuit suit storage machine. Will warn you when the device is at 50%, 75% and 90% capacity. Data = 4 Materials = 4 Power = 3 Plasma = 2

Rigsuit high capacity radiation absorption device Same as the regular radiation absorption device, but has 3.2 times the storage capacity. Data = 4 Materials = 6 Power = 4 Plasma = 3

Mechs Construction of mechs are typically the product of roboticists and the Research Director being bored or powerhungry. These can be tremendously helpful or tremendously annoying depending on who uses it. They take more work to make than robots and require special circuits, which can be obtained through the Quartermaster or the Research and Development console.

The current list of mechs is as follows.

Ripley.png Ripley APLU

The workhorse of the mech world, the Ripley is primarily used for mining operations. While its drill works quite nicely for bringing down walls and fending off attacks by xenomorphs and space carp, its lack of speed and inability to use ranged weapons mean using it specifically for combat is a bad idea.

A prototype mech capable of assuming multiple roles, which can move through walls and solid objects with its phase array. It can equip more modules than any other normally produced mech, and comes with a Gravitational Catapult and mounted RCD. Its only flaws are that its armor is rather light and that phasing consumes large amounts of energy when active.

Fabricate the Phazon parts in the exo-fabricator. (Enjoy your mining) Attach all of the Phazon parts to the chassis (except the Armor plates) Wrench. Screwdriver. Cable Coil. Wirecutters. Print the Phazon Main Control Module in the Circuit Printer (Bug research.) Add the Phazon Main Control Module. Secure it with a screwdriver.

Add five units of Metal. Wrench. Weld the mech. Add five units of Plasteel. Wrench. Weld the mech. Add weapons to the finished mech. Not shown here are the Marauder and the Seraph, which are used exclusively by the Death Squad Officers. (A third variant called the Mauler is used by Syndicate agents as well, but is only deployed on rare occasions.) Both of these are armed with the best equipment Nanotrasen can provide, and boast thruster systems for increased speed, smoke launchers to disorient and distract foes, and a zoom function that allows its user to see far-off objects with ease.

Mech Equipment Various tools and weapons can be attached to mechs, providng them with ability to perform different tasks. Mech Equipment is built by Mech Fabricator (“Exosuit Equipment” menu). To attach a tool or weapon, simply click with it on mecha. Most mechs can hold no more than three equipment pieces, with the exceptions of the Clarke, Phazon and Marauder (which have four slots) and the Seraph (which has five). You can get an extra equipment slot by using the modkit available from the Trader.

Drill The drill can completely destroy most objects (with the exception of walls) in a few seconds. Using the drill on someone will gib them in a few seconds. So don't do that unless you're a traitor.

When used for mining, targeted and two adjacent mineral deposits will be drilled. If Ripley exosuit is equipped with Hydraulic Clamp and has an Ore Box in cargo, all mined ore will be moved to Ore Box. (Can be attached to: Any Mech except Odysseus)

Diamond Drill Essentially an upgraded drill. Isn't any stronger, but it is faster (all you need for mining really) and can tear through reinforced walls with ease. Bug R&D to sync their servers and in no time mining can obliterate the asteroid (provided that they bring you diamonds first). (Can be attached to: Any Mech except Odysseus)

Hydraulic Clamp Gives it an ability to load objects into cargo compartment, or lets you crush people with it. (Can be attached to: Ripley)

Foam Extinguisher Mecha-mounted foam extinguisher, for heavy firefighting duty. Can be refilled by clicking on the Water Tank. (Can be attached to: Firefighter Ripley)

Teleporter Mecha-mounted teleporter. Can teleport mecha to any location in view. Must be researched first (Requires: 'Blue-space' Research 10, Electromagnetic Spectrum Research 5. Currently only adminspawnable due to the high research level - don't bother, really. Or steal it from the Centcomm mechs. You know you want to just hijack the deathsquad shuttles after taking their IDs off their burnt corpses, charge out the doors with your stolen weapons in hand, hack your way through the multitudinous doors as more security rushes in with murder in mind and pulse cannons and power armour at hand, until you finally get to your prizes, the mech bay - only to steal the teleporters mounted on them and scarper back to the station to use them in the destructive analyser. You know it's what you want to do. Do it. Do it. Do it.)So go get that Phazon, you'll need it. (Can be attached to: Any Mech; attached to Seraph by default)

Gravitational Catapult Can be used to throw objects around (S mode) or move them away from target (P mode). Must be researched first (Requires: 'Blue-space' Research 2; Electromagnetic Spectrum Research 3; Engineering 3). (Can be attached to: Any Mech except Odysseus; attached to Phazon by default)

Wormhole Generator As the name implies, Wormhole Generator creates a wormhole (similar to ones spawned at Space-Time Anomalies event) at target location. Must be researched first (Requires: 'Blue-space' Research 4). (Can be attached to: Any Mech except Odysseus)

Mech Maintenance Replacing Batteries Make sure the ID upload panel is closed. Permit maintainance protocols in the mech settings menu. Hit the mech with your ID card or PDA with one inside and select “Enable Maintainance Protocols”. Wrench Crowbar to remove old cell. Replace cell. Wrench ID, then select “Terminate Maintainance Protocols”. Note: The default capacity of a power cell in any of the civilian mechs is 15,000. To have any effectiveness, replace with Super Capacity Cells (20,000) or Hyper Capacity Cells (30,000). The power cells in military mechs cannot be removed or replaced.

Repair Equip a WeldingHelmet.png welding helmet on your head. Note: Be sure to remember this step or you could go blind! Place a Welder lit.png welder in your hand, click on it while it's in your hand to light it, then click on the Mech repeatedly to repair it. Painting Most mechs can be repainted using a mech painting tool. They can be found under the Misc category in the exosuit fabricator.

MMI Mechs With all mechs, MMI's can be installed as drivers. But remember, mechs are not bound to the AI or its laws, so don't put any subversive elements inside them.

There are a number of disadvantages too:

They cannot use ';' for radio talk, and have to manually toggle their radio on and off. They get no remote control like cyborgs. They still require oxygen to survive in a vacuum. They have no access except those given to them by swiping an ID. They can be easily shut down from an exosuit control console like cyborgs. Various bugs that have yet to be fixed, such as hearing radio messages twice. In general, this is usually a bad idea.

Are you a Roboticist? This guide will explain the creation and maintenance of Cyborgs, bots, and stocky exosuits.

thumb|400px|alt=Robotics|[[Robotics and Mech Bay]]

[[Exosuit Fabricator]]s

These are the main machines used in Robotics, with them you can create various exosuit and cyborg parts and their upgrade modules. Remember to sync these with the R&D servers frequently for new equipment designs and increased production speeds.

If one (or more) of the Exosuit Fabricators gets stuck at updating from R&D servers, use a screwdriver on it and then crowbar that fucker! Remove any metal/glass sheets and then put all the components back into the machine frame, use a screwdriver at the end to reassemble the Exosuit Fabricator.

[[File:Generic_borg.png|64px]] [[Cyborg]]s

Total Part Cost: 100000 Metal

{| style=“background-color:#EEEEEE” width=“300” !Requires

2 x Flash 1 x Cable Coil 1 x Power Cell (preferably at least High-Capacity) 1 x Brain→ MMI

The Cyborg is the Roboticist's primary creation. They are tasked with helping the station's inhabitants in their daily life and trying to kill everyone when the AI is insane. Each cyborg is required to follow the AI's laws, and may choose one of the AIs in the event that more than one exists.

Assuming you already have the necessary components: # Power Cell Insert a charged power cell into the cyborg's chest # Cable Coil Insert a coil of wire into the cyborg's chest # Flash Insert two flashes in the cyborg's head (one for each eye socket) # For final assembly, take each component and apply it to the cyborg endoskeleton # Multitool Multitools can be used to give cyborgs names. Simply apply the multitool before the brain is installed. Note that calling a borg 'PenisShitter 5000' will not net you any new friends, however, if your borg leaves the name up to you, be sure to name it 'PenisShitter 5000'. For some hilarity and general confusion, try giving the borg the same name as the AI. # Brain Once it's complete, it's time for the brain. See here how to remove your volunteer's brain. # MMI Now put the brain into your MMI, and then the MMI into the cyborg suit. Congratulations, your cyborg is complete. Put the brainless corpse into a body bag and deliver it to the Morgue (or throw it down the disposals because ROBOTICS!). If when you insert the MMI into the cyborg it says “This MMI does not seem to fit.” it means the user is job banned from cyborg.

Cyborg Maintenance

Dented cyborgs can be repaired with a welding tool. Heat damage to cyborgs (from fires or lasers) can be repaired by using a screwdriver to open the cyborg's wiring panel (concealed inside the power cell cavity) and then re-wiring the damaged circuits. Engineering cyborgs can repair dents on themselves and on their fellow cyborgs. They cannot repair burn damage though, since they cannot remove power cells to reach the wiring.

In the beginning of a maintenance process, you need to open the Cyborg's maintenance cover. To open it: #Id_regular.png Use your ID Card to unlock the Cyborg. #Crowbar.png Use a Crowbar to open the cover. After the maintenance process use the same tools in reverse order so the Cyborg doesn't run around with its cover open, like so: #Crowbar.png Use a Crowbar to close the cover. #Id_regular.png Use your ID Card to lock the Cyborg.

Cyborg Batteries

You will often see at least one Cyborg come to your assembly line to ask for an upgrade.

# Unlock and open the Cyborg's cover. # Hud-hands.gif With an Empty Hand, remove the old battery. # Power_cell.png Insert a New Battery. # Close the cover and lock the Cyborg.

Cyborg Radios

Cyborgs can be installed with radio encryption keys, allowing them to communicate on secure department channels. # Unlock and open the Cyborg's cover. # Encryption_key.png Insert a New Encryption Key (or Screwdriver to remove the current Key). # Close the cover and lock the Cyborg.

Reviving Cyborgs

A cyborg that has failed but not been turned into scrap can be repaired back to working order. # Create an Emergency Restart Module at the Exosuit Fabricator (under Cyborg Upgrade Modules). # Repair the Cyborg with a welder and/or replace wires. # Unlock and open the Cyborg's cover. # Circuitboard.png Insert the Emergency Restart Module. # Close the cover and lock the Cyborg.

Upgrading Cyborgs

# Unlock and open the Cyborg's cover. # Circuitboard.png Insert the Upgrade Module (or emag to subvert). # Close the cover and lock the Cyborg.

Deconstructing Cyborgs

Cyborgs can be deconstructed to remove their MMI and get their parts back. # Unlock and open the Cyborg's cover. # Hud-hands.gif Use an Empty Hand to remove battery. # Screwdriver_tool.png Screwdriver to open wiring. # Wirecutters.png Cut every wire until the 'lockdown' light turns on. # Wrench.png Wrench to disassemble. (Alternatively, for steps 4 and 5, you can use a Robotics console)

Removing Brains

# MMI.pngHave a MMI in hand. # Click to remove the brain.

Upgrades

Roboticists can construct upgrade modules for cyborgs, such as one that increases your movement speed. Should you wish to change models, request a module reset board be used on you.

Bots

As a Roboticist, you serve another important purpose: making robots. Robots can benefit the station in many ways, and are really damned easy to create. The current list of robots, and how to make them, is as follows:

'Remember:' All bots can be made by placing all the parts on a table and click-dragging it to yourself. This can save a lot of time during construction, especially if Robotics is busy!

[[File:Medibot.gif|64px]] Medibot

Heals anyone nearby. Can be equipped with a beaker to stick people with instead of the default medicine, and when emagged it will inject people with toxins, repeatedly.

To manufacture:

{| style=“background-color:#EEEEEE” width=“300” !Requires

1 x Med-kit (EMPTY, any color) 1 x Health Analyzer 1 x Proximity Sensor

# Attach the Borg Arm (left or right, doesn't matter) to an empty Med-kit. Color of the Med-kit doesn't matter, although it will affect the colour of the Medbot. # You can pick the assembly up in your hand at this point and name it something clever/funny/stupid by holding your Pen in the other hand and clicking on it, if you wish. # Add a Medical Analyzer. # Insert the Proximity Sensor and your Medibot is ready!

[[File:Cleanbot.gif|64px]] Cleanbot

Cleanbots are great, as they serve the exact same purpose as the Janitor. What makes it even better is that it uses Space Cleaner to mop, so no slipping on everything! When Emagged (or hacked) it will spew slippery foam and melt people with acid.

To make:

{| style=“background-color:#EEEEEE” width=“300” !Requires

1 x Proximity Sensor 1 x Cyborg_left_arm.png Borg Arm (left or right)

# Grab a bucket from the Janitor or make with Autolathe and insert the Proximity Sensor to it # Use a Pen to name it if you wish. # Attach a Borg Arm and your Cleanbot is ready!

[[File:Floorbot.gif|64px]] Floorbot

Floorbots are nice to have around when some asshole starts crowbarring up floor tiles or some traitor has blown apart a section of the station. They zoom around and repair busted floor tiles. Honestly, they're niche to the point of uselessness. But they make nice pets. Also, if emagged, they will deconstruct the floors into space.

To manufacture:

{| style=“background-color:#EEEEEE” width=“300” !Requires

1 x Floor Tile 1 x Proximity Sensor 1 x Cyborg_left_arm.png Borg Arm (left or right)

# Attach a Floor tile to the Mechanical Toolbox. # Add the Proximity Sensor. # Insert a Borg Arm and your Floorbot is ready!

[[File:Securitron.gif|I AM THE LAW|64px]] [[Securitron]]

Basically, Officer Beepsky without the personality. You usually won't need to build any of these, but they can be hilariously helpful for traitors who have invested in a Cryptographic Sequencer, as they tend to run around stunning and cuffing everyone in sight. Problem is, any of these that report a Level 10 Infraction when spotting people are obviously hacked.

To manufacture:

{| style=“background-color:#EEEEEE” width=“300” !Requires

1 x Helmet 1 x Welding Tool 1 x Proximity Sensor 1 x Cyborg_left_arm.png Borg Arm (left or right) 1 x Stun Baton

# Use a Remote Signaling Device on a Helmet. # Weld them together # Add a Proximity Sensor. # Insert a Borg Arm. # Toss in a Stun Baton and your Securitron is ready! Note: Destroying a Securitron or Officer Beepsky with a melee weapon is all but impossible by yourself; striking them causes them to immediately stun and cuff you. If you work with another person you can get several hits in while it is cuffing the other person, which is often enough to destroy it outright.

[[File:Ed209.png|64px]] [[ED-209]]

'PUT DOWN YOUR WEAPON. YOU HAVE 15 SECONDS TO COMPLY.'

Beepsky's bigger brother. Has all of the abilities of a standard Securitron with the addition of a ranged attack.

To manufacture:

{| style=“background-color:#EEEEEE” width=“300” !Requires

1 x Metal Sheet 2 x Cyborg Leg Cyborg Leg 1 x Body Armor 1 x Welding Tool 1 x Helmet 1 x Proximity Sensor 1 x Cable Coil 1 x Hybrid Taser 1 x Screwdriver 1 x Power Cell

# Cyborg Endoskeleton Build a Cyborg Endoskeleton from the Exosuit Fabricator. # Metal Sheet Use a Metal Sheet on a Cyborg Endoskeleton to reinforce it. # Cyborg Leg Add two Robot Legs # Body Armor Add a Body Armor # Welding Tool Weld everything together # Helmet Add in a security Helmet # Proximity Sensor Attach a Proximity Sensor to the assembly # Cable Coil Insert wires # Hybrid Taser Screwdriver Add a Hybrid Taser and attach it with a Screwdriver # Power Cell Insert a Power Cell. Your own exosuit is complete! A emagged ED-209 fires deadly lasers AND attacks anyone on sight.

[[File:Generic drone.png|64px]] [[Drone|Drone]]

A disposable little drone that runs around and repairs things. Controlled by players, and can't interact with any other beings at all (besides other drones). Usually good to make lots of these to let ghosts get back into the round.

# Drone Shell Build a drone shell from the exosuit fabricator

That's it! Any ghost can click on the drone shell to take control of it and start repairing the station. Note that to unlock drone shells, R&D needs Programming 2 and Biotechnology 4. The metal and glass costs of building a drone shell are trivial.

There is also a drone shell dispenser, in the Testing Lab on Box Station, that can be stocked with metal and glass to constantly produce drones.

Exosuits

Construction of Exosuit are restricted by ID, so they are typically the product of roboticists and the Research Director. These can be tremendously helpful or tremendously annoying depending on who uses it. They take more work to make than robots and require special circuits, which are obtained through the Quartermaster or the Research and Development console.

With all Exosuits, MMIs can be installed as drivers. But remember, MMIs are not bound to the AI or its laws, so don't put any deranged maniacs inside them. Remember to grant the suit access keys, because they don't have anything by default!

List of Exosuits

The current list of exosuits is as follows.

[[File:Ripley.png|64px]] Ripley APLU

Total Part Cost: 100000 Metal, 7500 Glass

The Ripley APLU (Autonomous Power Loading Unit) is a slow moving, decently protected exosuit. Generally, it can take down a Gygax because of the sheer power of the drill, but it does not make a good combat exosuit because it is slow and has no range. Best used against Spess carp invasions, blobs, Changelings, and for Revs (using it to breach high security areas) Expect Mining to constantly be bugging you to make one for them.

It has good melee armor to protect it from mining mobs, which can be further upgraded by adding Goliath plates to it.

Has 6 equipment slots.

To make: # Build all of the Ripley parts using the Exosuit Fabricator. # Attach all of the parts to the Ripley chassis # Wrench Wrench # Screwdriver Screwdriver # Cable Coil Cable Coil # Wirecutters Wirecutters # Ripley Central Control Module Ripley Central Control Module (from R&D or QM) # Screwdriver Screwdriver # Ripley Peripherals Control Module Ripley Peripherals Control Module (from R&D or QM) # Screwdriver Screwdriver # Metal 5 pieces of Metal # Wrench Wrench # Welding Tool Welding Tool # Plasteel 5 pieces of Plasteel # Wrench Wrench # Welding Tool Welding Tool # Hydraulic Clamp Exosuit Drill Add a Hydraulic Clamp and/or an Exosuit Drill to the finished Ripley The Ripley should be complete, to access it use your ID card on it. The codes on the system mean that you have to have access to those places on your ID to use the Exosuit. Click finish, then drag yourself inside to begin entering.

[[File:Firefighter.png|64px]] Firefighter APLU

Total Part Cost: 100000 Metal, 7500 Glass

Handling Exosuits

To climb into an exosuit, just drag and drop your character onto it.

Unlocking Exosuits

Problem: “Access denied” when trying to enter an exosuit.

To unlock an exosuit: * Unlock ID upload panel * Exit exosuit. * Use ID card/PDA on exosuit (may need to wrench first). * Delete all key codes. * Now anybody can enter the exosuit.

Exosuit Repairs

Turn Maintenance Mode on (from the menu when you activate it with your ID), and then use a welder on the exosuit to repair it.
