==Cyborg Maintenance==

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

#[[File:Id_regular.png]] Use an ID Card, [[File:Emag.png]] [[Emag]] it or just ask the Cyborg to unlock its panel

#[[File: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:

#[[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.

For brute damage:

For burn damage:

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.

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

===Cyborg Radios===

Cyborgs can be installed with radio encryption keys, allowing them to communicate on secure department channels.

===Reviving Cyborgs===

A cyborg that has failed but not been turned into scrap can be repaired back to working order.

===Upgrading Cyborgs===

===Resetting Cyborg models===

===Deconstructing Cyborgs===

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

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

[[Roboticist]]s can construct upgrade modules for cyborgs, such as one that increases your movement speed. Should you wish to change models, ask the roboticist to cut and mend your reset wire.

!Cyborg Diamond Drill

|[[File:Metal.png]]10000 Metal,[[File:Diamonddone.png]]2000 Diamond

|-

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.

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

* 1x Clown shoes

* 1x Bike horn [[File:Bike horn.png]]

* 3x H.O.N.K. circuit boards [[File:Circuitboard.png]]

* 1x [[File:Scanning_Module.gif]]Phasic Scanning Module (Higher tier = less power consumption)

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.

B) '''DNA lock''':

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

==Exosuit Equipment==

====Generic Exosuit Equipment====

|-

|The drill can completely destroy most objects (with the exception of reinforced walls) and kill people who stand still within a few seconds.<br>

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.<br>

Can't be attached to the Odysseus.

|-

|Essentially an upgraded drill that's faster and much stronger - you can go right through minerals and reinforced walls.<br>

Can't be attached to the Odysseus.

|-

|A mech-mounted version of an advanced mining scanner with the same range, but less than half the cooldown. Is always active once attached.

|-

|A mounted teleporter that can teleport the exosuit to any location in view.

|-

|Can be used to throw objects around ('''S'''ling mode) or blast anything away from a targeted area ('''P'''ush mode).

|-

|As the name implies, the wormhole generator creates a wormhole (similar to ones spawned by Space-Time Anomaly events) at a targeted location.

|-

|An exosuit-mounted Rapid Construction Device. Rapidly drains battery charge, but can deconstruct reinforced walls.

|-

|Boosts exosuit armor against armed melee attacks. Requires energy to operate.

|-

|Boosts exosuit armor against ranged attacks. Completely blocks taser shots. Requires energy to operate.

|-

|Automated repair droid. Scans exosuit for damage and repairs it. Can fix almost all types of external or internal damage.

|-

|Wirelessly drains energy from any APC's available power channel in the area. Not very effective.

|-

|Generates power using solid plasma sheets as fuel. Occasionally releases clouds of plasma that may catch on fire.

|-

|Generates power using uranium sheets as fuel. Irradiates the environment.

|}

====Specialized Exosuit Equipment====

|-

|Gives it an ability to load objects into a cargo compartment, or lets you crush people with it.<br> Great in combination with an ore box - nearby minerals will be loaded straight into the box.

!Ripley, Firefighter

|-

|Cuts through solid rock and can dismember unlucky targets. More effective in low pressure environments.<br> Longer range and higher damage than portable cutters.

!Ripley, Firefighter

|-

|Exosuit-mounted extinguisher. Holds up to 1.000 units and can be refilled by clicking on a water tank.

!Ripley, Firefighter

|-

|Pries up floor tiles, lays cables and cuts them; similar to a rapid cable layer.

!Ripley, Firefighter

|-

|Exosuit-mounted chem synthesizer with syringe gun. Reagents inside are held in stasis, so no reactions will occur until the syringe injects someone.<br> 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.<br> Reagent synthesis has to be manually started by opening the equipment tab of the mech's status menu.

!Odysseus

|-

|Exo-suit mounted sleeper that stabilizes patients inside and lets you inject chemicals that were produced by the mounted syringe gun.<br> Can also be used to abduct people and keep them sedated.

!Odysseus

|-

|Exo-suit mounted medigun which gradually heals people it's used on. Don't cross the streams!

!Odysseus

====Exosuit Weapons====

|-

|Fires a Laser bolt, identical to laser rifles.

!Durand, Gygax, Honker, and Phazon

|-

|Fires a Heavy Laser bolt, identical to the laser cannon.

!Durand, Gygax, Honker, and Phazon

|-

|Fires an Ion bolt, identical to ion rifles. Don't hit yourself!

!Durand, Gygax, Honker, and Phazon

|-

!Durand, Gygax, Honker, and Phazon

|-

|Fires a missile that will explode on impact. Deals 30 damage. Despite having 9 slots on the sprite it has 8 shots. Hitting a non-living target makes a 1/2/4 explosion, hitting a living target makes a 0/0/2 one.

!Durand, Gygax, Honker, and Phazon

|-
