Guide to robotics

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

Robotics and Mech Bay

Exosuit Fabricators

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 an Exosuit Fabricator gets stuck at updating from the R&D servers, use a screwdriver on it and then a crowbar. Remove any metal and glass sheets and then put all the components back into the machine frame. Use a screwdriver at the end to reassemble the Exosuit Fabricator.

Cyborgs

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, unless they aren't synced, and will only be synced to one AI in the event that more than one exists.

Cyborg Creation

Total Part Cost: 100,000

Cyborg	Required Materials	How to build
	1x each Cyborg part (made with the Exosuit Fabricator) 2x Flashes (Exosuit Fabricator) 1x Cable Coil 1x Power Cell (preferably at least High-Capacity) 1x → or positronic brain or a B.O.R.I.S. module	Insert a charged power cell into the cyborg's chest. Insert a coil of wire into the cyborg's chest. 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. Multitools can be used to give cyborgs names and fiddling with the default configuration. Simply apply the multitool before the brain is installed. Make sure the given name follows the server Rules. If you skip the naming process the name of the borg will be whatever the user configured in his character and if he never did, a Default-### name. Once it's complete, it's time for the brain. See here how to remove your willing volunteer's brain. 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. 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. If the brain is damaged, try applying mannitol. Alternatively to the MMI, you can print a Positronic Brain which will be presented for ghosts to occupy after you activate it. Another alternative is printing a B.O.R.I.S module after the adequate research, turning that borg into an AI Shell.

Cyborg Maintenance

In the beginning of a maintenance process, you need to open the Cyborg's maintenance cover. To open it:

1. Use an ID Card, Emag it or just ask the Cyborg to unlock its panel.
2. 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:

1. Use a crowbar to close the cover.
2. Use your ID Card to lock the Cyborg. Borgs can't lock their panel. An emagged cover can't be locked.

Cyborg Repairs

Cyborgs will often come to you for repairs if damaged.

For brute damage:

1. Weld them to fix the dents.

For burn damage:

1. Unlock and open the Cyborg's cover.
2. Use an empty hand to remove the battery.
3. Screwdriver to expose wiring.
4. Rewire the damaged circuits. You may have to do this step more than once.
5. Screwdriver to hide wiring.
6. Re-insert the old battery or insert a new one.
7. Close the cover and lock the Cyborg.

Engineering cyborgs can repair dents on themselves (if not critically damaged) and on their fellow cyborgs. They cannot repair burn damage though, since they cannot remove power cells to reach the wiring.

Cyborg Batteries

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

1. Unlock and open the Cyborg's cover.
2. With an empty hand, remove the old battery.
3. Insert a new battery.
4. 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. Using a screwdriver on a headset will remove the encryption keys.

1. Unlock and open the Cyborg's cover.
2. Insert an encryption key (or screwdriver to remove the current key).
3. 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.

1. Create an Emergency Restart Module at the Exosuit Fabricator (under Cyborg Upgrade Modules).
2. Repair the Cyborg with a welder and/or replace wires.
3. Unlock and open the Cyborg's cover.
4. Insert the Emergency Restart Module.
5. Close the cover and lock the Cyborg.

Upgrading Cyborgs

1. Unlock and open the Cyborg's cover.
2. Insert the Upgrade Module (or emag to subvert).
3. Close the cover and lock the Cyborg.

Resetting Cyborg Models

For info on how to reset a cyborg's model, check out the Guide to Hacking.

Deconstructing Cyborgs

Cyborgs can be deconstructed to remove their MMI/Posibrain and get their parts back.

1. Unlock and open the Cyborg's cover.
2. Use an empty hand to remove the battery.
3. Screwdriver to open wiring.
4. Cut every wire until the lockdown light turns on.
5. Wrench to disassemble.

Alternatively, for steps 4 and 5, you can use a Robotics console.

Cyborg Upgrades

Roboticists can construct upgrade modules for cyborgs. Most modules must be researched before they can be printed. Material costs can be lowered by upgrading the Exosuit Fabricator.

In order to change a Cyborg's model, cut and mend their reset wire.

Bots

As a Roboticist, you serve another important purpose: making robots. Robots can benefit the station in many ways, and are really easy to create.

All bots can also be made through the crafting menu. This can save a lot of time during construction, especially if Robotics is busy!

You can rename incomplete bots by using a pen on them!

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 toxin, repeatedly.

Medibot	Required Materials	How to build
	1x Cyborg Arm (left or right) 1x Med-kit (empty, any color) 1x Health Analyzer 1x Proximity Sensor	Attach the cyborg arm to an empty Med-kit. The color of the Med-kit will affect the color of the Medibot. Add a Medical Analyzer. Insert the Proximity Sensor and your Medibot is ready!
	Tools
	No tools

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.

Cleanbot	Required Materials	How to build
	1x Bucket 1x Proximity Sensor 1x Cyborg Arm (left or right)	Attach the Proximity Sensor to a bucket (printable from the Autolathe). Attach a cyborg arm and your Cleanbot is ready!
	Tools

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.

Floorbot	Required Materials	How to build
	1x Any toolbox 10x Floor Tile 1x Proximity Sensor 1x Cyborg Arm (left or right)	Attach the Floor tiles to the Mechanical Toolbox. Add the Proximity Sensor. Insert a cyborg arm and your Floorbot is ready!

Firebot

This lil guy will scoot around and try his best to extinguish burning people and gases around him. If emagged he will spray Chlorine Trifluoride at anyone who isn't on fire.

Firebot	Required Materials	How to build
	1x Fire Extinguisher 1x Proximity Sensor 1x Fire Helmet 1x Cyborg Arm (left or right)	Attach a Borg Arm (left or right) to the Fire Extinguisher. Add a Fire Helmet. Add a Proximity Sensor and your Firebot is ready.
	Tools

Honkbot

It's annoying and useless, but the clown might bug you to make one of this in absentia of a H.O.N.K. mech. God forbid if a traitor emags the thing.

Honkbot	Required Materials	How to build
	1x Cardboard 1x Clown Stamp 1x Bike Horn 1x Proximity Sensor 1x Cyborg Arm (left or right)	Stamp a piece of cardboard with the clown stamp (you may need a clown for this step). Insert a Cyborg arm. Add a Proximity Sensor. Add a Bike Horn.
	Tools
	No tools

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.

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.

Securitron	Required Materials	How to build
	1x Remote Signaling Device 1x Helmet 1x Proximity Sensor 1x Cyborg Arm (left or right) 1x Stun Baton	Use a Remote Signaling Device on a Helmet. Weld them together. Add a Proximity Sensor. Insert a Cyborg arm. Toss in a Stun Baton and your Securitron is ready!
	Tools
	Welding Tool

AtmosBot

This bot looks just like a grenade with legs! It will use foamed metal to secure any breaches it sees. If emagged it will explode instead of using foam, creating even more damage to the station.

Also known as the Automatic Station Stabilizer Bot, or A.S.S. Bot for short.

AtmosBot	Required Materials	How to build
	1x Analyzer 1x Smart Metal Foam Grenade 1x Proximity Sensor 1x Cyborg Arm (left or right)	Use a Cyborg arm on an analyzer. Add a smart metal foam grenade. Add a Proximity Sensor.

General Beepsky

This is General Beepsky (or General Grieffous, your pick). A terrifying 4 esword wielding nightmare-bot created by a mad roboticist with the help of some leftover eswords, this thing is a traitor's worst nightmare. It takes down criminals by delivering deadly spin attacks, instantly downing a target with it's rapidly rotating eswords. It gets even worse when a Cryptographic Sequencer gets involved, as General Beepskey will begin to mercilessly track, kill, maim and subsequently disembowel any target he comes across.

Unlike normal Securitrons, General Beepsky can deflect projectiles with its eswords. Its only true weakness is an EMP.

General Beepsky	Required Materials	How to build
	1x Remote Signaling Device 1x Helmet 1x Proximity Sensor 1x Cyborg Arm (left or right) 4x Energy Sword	Use a Remote Signaling Device on a Helmet. Weld them together. Add a Proximity Sensor. Insert a Cyborg arm. Use a Wrench to adjust the arm slots for extra weapons. Attach 4 Energy Swords and your death machine is ready to maim.

	Welding Tool Wrench

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.

An emagged ED-209 fires deadly lasers AND attacks anyone on sight.

ED-209	Required Materials	How to build
	1x Cyborg Endoskeleton 1x Metal 2x Cyborg Leg 1x Security Vest or Tag armour 1x Helmet or Tag helm 1xProximity Sensor 1x Cable 1x DRAGnet or Tag Laser 1x Power Cell	Build a Cyborg Endoskeleton from the Exosuit Fabricator. Use a Metal Sheet on a Cyborg Endoskeleton to reinforce it. Add two Cyborg legs. Add a Body Armor or Laser Tag Armors. Weld everything together. Add in a security Helmet or Laser Tag Helmets. Attach a Proximity Sensor to the assembly. Insert wires. Add a DRAGnet or Laser Tag Lasers. Secure it with a Screwdriver. Insert any Power Cell. Your 100% safe robot officer is complete!

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	Required Materials	How to build
	1x Power Cell 1x Flash 1x Crowbar 1x Wrench 1x Cable Coil 1x Screwdriver 1x Multitool 1x Welding Tool 1x Wirecutters 1x Backpack or Dufflebag or Satchel 5x Plasteel sheets	Go to the Robot tab in the Crafting Menu. Craft the Drone. That's it! Any ghost can click on the drone shell to take control of it and start repairing the station.

Exosuits

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 MMI controlled mechs access keys, because they don't have a keycard on them!

List of Exosuits

The current list of exosuits is as follows.

Reticence

Equipment slots: 2

Movement speed: Fast.

Armor: 25 melee, 20 bullet, 30 laser, 15 energy. 15.000°K max temperature.

Integrity: 100

Description: A nigh invisible, silent, fast assassination mech popular among mimes, equipped with a suppressed S.H.H. "Quietus" Carbine that injects you with mute toxin and a mounted RCD.
It distinguishes itself in being incredibly weak, but very hard to see and making no noise when walking or turning. It also packs a punch, knocking back people similarly to the Durand.

Exosuit operation and maintenance

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

Exosuit beacons

Adding a tracking beacon (exofab "Misc" category) to a mech allows the RD's exosuit control console to track the mech, view detailed stats, message the pilot and even EMP it when neccessary.

Research can also unlock an AI control beacon that lets the AI - you guessed it - control the exosuit.

Locking/unlocking Exosuits

There are two ways to lock exosuit: A) ID ("keycode") lock or B) DNA lock.

A) ID lock (keycode):

Adding a keycode to a mech will grant it access to that area, but will also prevent anyone without that access from entering the mech.

For example: A mech with "bridge" and "robotics" keycodes has access to both areas, but requires an ID card with at least bridge and robotics access to enter.

• Enter the exosuit and unlock the ID upload panel.
• Exit the exosuit.
• Use an ID card/PDA on exosuit and select "Edit operation keycodes".

B) DNA lock:

DNA locking only allows the person matching the recorded Unique Enzymes (UE) to enter the mech.

This can be abused by Changelings and crafty Geneticists! Another downside is that you will be locked out if you swap bodies.

• Enter the exosuit and open the stats menu.
• Unter Permissions&Logging, click "DNA-lock".
• To remove the lock, hit "[ Reset ]" next to your DNA string under "DNA-locked:".

Exosuit Damage and Repairs

For external damage to the exosuit, simply use a welder on it. When a mech takes damage while its integrity is below a certain threshold, it has a chance to break internally. The reports for internal damage can be seen in the stats window.

Internal Fire: An internal fire will heat the air in the cabin and in the air tank, potentially causing a breach. It has a chance to fix itself if the life support system is functional.

Life Support System Malfunction: A malfunction in the life support system will prevent the mech from regulating the temperature brought into the cabin from the internal air tank. It can be fixed by using a screwdriver on it or with a repair droid.

Gas Tank Breach: A gas tank breach will cause the contents of the internal tank to be leaked into the environment. It can be fixed by using a welder on the mech if it also has external damage or with a repair droid.

Coordination System Calibration Failure: A failure in the coordination system will cause the mech to move randomly and can cause the mech to miss its targets. It can be fixed by clicking "Recalibrate" in the damage report.

Short Circuit: A short circuit failure will cause the installed power cell to lose charge and damages it so that its maximum charge decreases. It also prevents repair droids and tesla relays from working. It can be repaired by using wires on the mech while its power unit hatch is open (see battery replacement steps).

Exosuit Battery and Parts Replacement

1. Make sure maintenance protocols are permitted (Permissions&Logging inside the mech).
2. Hit the exosuit with your ID card or PDA with ID inside and select "Initiate maintenance protocol".
3. Wrench
4. Crowbar
5. Swipe your ID again and choose to empty the cell or either part.
6. New part
7. Crowbar
8. Wrench
9. ID Card and select "Initiate maintenance protocol" again.
10. Forbid maintenance protocols inside the mech.

Exosuit Wreckage Repair

Depending on the mech's capacitor tier when it was destroyed, it will be easier/harder to repair. The higher the tier, the faster it will be to repair.

A tier 3 capacitor will retain the scanning module, while a tier 4 capacitor will retain the power cell, but it will be drained a random amount.

If you expect your mech to be destroyed, it is a good idea to carry a spare cell in case you have to repair it and cannot get it back to robotics. If the capacitor is below T3, you should also carry a spare scanning module.

To repair a mech wreckage, perform the following steps:

1. Weld together the broken parts (costs 5 welding fuel)
2. Weld out the dents in the chassis (costs 5 welding fuel)
3. Tighten the bolts
4. Repair the wiring (costs 5 cable coil)

Exosuit Equipment

Various tools and weapons can be attached to exosuits, providng them with ability to perform different tasks. Exosuit equipment is built by Exosuit Fabricator ("Exosuit Equipment" menu).

To attach a tool or weapon, simply click with it on the exosuit.

Generic Exosuit Equipment

Image	Equipment	Description
	Drill	The drill can completely destroy most objects (with the exception of reinforced walls) and kill people who stand still within a few seconds. When used for mining, the targeted and two adjacent mineral deposits will be drilled. Drills are rarely used for mining once Plasma Cutters become available. Can't be attached to the Odysseus.
	Diamond Drill	Essentially an upgraded drill that's faster and much stronger - you can go right through minerals and reinforced walls. Can't be attached to the Odysseus.
	Exosuit Mining Scanner	A mech-mounted version of an advanced mining scanner with the same range, but less than half the cooldown. Is always active once attached.
	Mounted Teleporter	A mounted teleporter that can teleport the exosuit to any location in view.
	Mounted Gravitational Catapult	Can be used to throw objects around (Sling mode) or blast anything away from a targeted area (Push mode).
	Exosuit Wormhole Generator	As the name implies, the wormhole generator creates a wormhole (similar to ones spawned by Space-Time Anomaly events) at a targeted location.
	Mounted RCD	An exosuit-mounted Rapid Construction Device. Rapidly drains battery charge, but can deconstruct reinforced walls.
	Armor Booster Module (Close Combat Weaponry)	Boosts exosuit armor against armed melee attacks. Requires energy to operate.
	Armor Booster Module (Ranged Weaponry)	Boosts exosuit armor against ranged attacks. Completely blocks taser shots. Requires energy to operate.
	Repair Droid	Automated repair droid. Scans exosuit for damage and repairs it. Can fix almost all types of external or internal damage.
	Exosuit Energy Relay	Wirelessly drains energy from any APC's available power channel in the area. Not very effective.
	Exosuit Plasma Converter	Generates power using solid plasma sheets as fuel. Occasionally releases clouds of plasma that may catch on fire.
	ExoNuclear Reactor	Generates power using uranium sheets as fuel. Irradiates the environment.

Specialized Exosuit Equipment

Image	Equipment	Description	Can be attached to
	Hydraulic Clamp	Gives it an ability to load objects into a cargo compartment, or lets you crush people with it. Great in combination with an ore box - nearby minerals will be loaded straight into the box.	Ripley, Firefighter
	217-D Heavy Plasma Cutter	Cuts through solid rock and can dismember unlucky targets. More effective in low pressure environments. Longer range and higher damage than portable cutters.	Ripley, Firefighter
	Exosuit Extinguisher	Exosuit-mounted extinguisher. Holds up to 1.000 units and can be refilled by clicking on a water tank.	Ripley, Firefighter
	Cable Layer	Pries up floor tiles, lays cables and cuts them; similar to a rapid cable layer.	Ripley, Firefighter
	Exosuit Syringe Gun	Exosuit-mounted chem synthesizer with syringe gun. Reagents inside are held in stasis, so no reactions will occur until the syringe injects someone. Can scan and produce most reagents - these will be available for syringes and the mounted sleeper. To load syringes, click on syringe boxes or individual syringes with the gun selected. Reagent synthesis has to be manually started by opening the equipment tab of the mech's status menu.	Odysseus
	Mounted Sleeper	Exo-suit mounted sleeper that stabilizes patients inside and lets you inject chemicals that were produced by the mounted syringe gun. Can also be used to abduct people and keep them sedated.	Odysseus
	Medigun	Exo-suit mounted medigun which gradually heals people it's used on. Don't cross the streams!	Odysseus
