Implants

Implants are subdermal devices injected into a player using an implanter. They can also be removed surgically - please refer to Doctoring for more information.

Science/Medical Implants

Machine Translator

Allows humans to communicate on the secure frequency used by the AI and cyborgs by adding :s before their speech. Good for clandestine communication with a subverted AI, or keeping in touch when regular radios fail.

Tracking

The coordinates of anyone implanted will appear on a space GPS, and their name will show up on the list of destinations for the teleport computer, allowing people to teleport right on top of you. Available on the bridge and telescience.

Health

Monitors the implantee's health and replaces the default health indicator with a more detailed readout, including an as-needed notification for radiation. It also alerts medical PDAs when the implantee is in critical condition or dies. Last but not least, their medical record is updated in real time, which can be accessed with a medical computer or the equivalent PDA program.

Discontinued Implants

Loyalty

Prevented you from becoming a revolutionary. Revolution isn't a regular game mode anymore, but a set of loyalty implants still exist in security.

Security

Tasers used to backfire on you unless you had one of these. Security implants were eventually scrapped along with implant locks. Freedom implants also let you use tasers, but because they had another use, they still exist.

Blood Monitor

If the implantee died, the blood monitor was supposed to alert the medical staff by updating their medical record. These were nigh-useless, as no one ever checked said records. Superseded by health implants.
