==[[Cyborg]]s==

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 [[File:Metal.png|Metal]]

##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:

#[[File:Crowbar.png]] Use a crowbar to close the cover.

#[[File:Id_regular.png]] 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.

#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.

#[[File: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. Using a screwdriver on a headset will remove the encryption keys.

#[[File:Encryption_key.png]] Insert an 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.

#[[File:Circuitboard.png]] Insert the Emergency Restart Module.

#Close the cover and lock the Cyborg.

#Unlock and open the Cyborg's cover.

#[[File:Circuitboard.png]] Insert the Upgrade Module (or emag to subvert).

#Close the cover and lock the Cyborg.

====Resetting Cyborg Models====

For info on how to reset a cyborg's model, check out the [[Hacking#Cyborgs|Guide to Hacking]].

====Deconstructing Cyborgs====

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

#[[File:Wrench.png]] Wrench to disassemble.

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

===Cyborg Upgrades===

[[Roboticist]]s 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.

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

#Toss in a [[Stun Baton]] and your Securitron is ready!

}}

====AtmosBot====

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

#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|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 [[Syndicate Items#Cryptographic Sequencer|Cryptographic Sequencer]] gets involved, as General Beepskey will begin to mercilessly track, kill, maim and subsequently disembowel any target he comes across.

#[[File:Power_cell.png|Power Cell]] 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.

{{GeneralConstruction

|name=Drone

#Craft the Drone.

#That's it! Any ghost can click on the drone shell to take control of it and start repairing the station.

With all Exosuits, [[MMI]]s can be installed as drivers. But remember, MMIs are not bound to the AI or its laws, so don't put any [[Traitor|deranged]] [[Clown|maniacs]] inside them. Remember to grant MMI controlled mechs access keys, because they don't have a keycard on them!

The current list of exosuits is as follows.

'''Description''': A quick but clunky to operate mining mech, possesses an inbuilt ore box that will automatically pick up any ores on the ground. Completely heat- and lavaproof.

'''Description:''' An advanced [[Death Squad]] exosuit for when the going gets seriously tough. Usually reserved for CentCom high command.<br> It starts off with the LBX AC 10 "Scattershot", the SRM-8 missile rack, a teleporter, a Tesla Energy Relay, and an antiprojectile armor booster.

For dealing with particularly resilient obstacles. Typically only found in the arsenals of the famed [[Nuclear Operative]]s.

'''<span style="color:white">Description</span>'''<span style="color:white">: 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.<br> 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.</span>

==Exosuit operation and maintenance==

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

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

*Enter the exosuit and open the stats menu.

*Unter Permissions&Logging, click "DNA-lock".

#[[File:Id_regular.png]] Hit the exosuit with your ID card or PDA with ID inside and select "Initiate maintenance protocol".

#[[File:Wrench.png|Wrench]] Wrench

#[[File:Id_regular.png]] Swipe your ID again and choose to empty the cell or either part.

#[[File:Wrench.png|Wrench]] Tighten the bolts

#[[File:CableCoils.png|Cable Coil]] 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).

Can't be attached to the Odysseus.
