Surgery: Difference between revisions

All surgery requires the set of medical tools in the [[Operating Theatre]], along with a table (a surgical table gives no negative results). For the most part, only [[medical doctor]]s and the [[Chief Medical Officer]] can perform advanced surgery.

===Surgical Tools===

Surgical tools can be found in surgery and robotics. Additionally, cargo can make them with their autolathe. It is best to keep surgical tools in their proper places so your fellow crewmembers can use them when they need them.

::Note the blood stains; if there are no blood stains, you already know what you're doing with this bad boy. This is a tiny item capable of being used by [[Medical Doctor]]s to cut out [[brain]]s to be put into [[roboticist#cyborgs|robots]]. It is also a highly effective melee weapon. They can be found in the [[Operating Theatre]] or made in an [[autolathe]]. It is extremely easy to blind yourself and others with this weapon, so letting the entire crew run around with these is extremely dangerous. It is also used by botanists to cut logs into planks.

::The monstrous device used to give [[cyborg]]s life. The roboticist starts with a few empty ones and its low [[Guide to Research and Development|research]] requirements mean more can easily be built in the protolathe. A brain in an MMI has no limbs and is, of course, not capable of interacting with anything - but at least it can talk. There's also a radio-enabled version that lets those snooty brains complain about you over the radio.
