BJobcyborg2.gif

Cyborgs are robots usually constructed in robotics by the roboticists and typically equipped with human brains. They can also use an interface board instead, allowing the AI to assume control of the cyborg body. Cyborgs are more durable and sturdy than humans and have captain-level access, but there is a big limitation in return. Cyborgs have no hands and therefore cannot pick things up. They have to rely on built-in tools to do stuff instead.

They also have access to robotic communications along with the AI, effectively giving them their own private radio channel. To use it, type:

  • say :s [your message]

Cyborgs are considered the AI's assistants and share its laws. If an AI is corrupted or subverted, the cyborgs will follow suit, unless they are emagged.

DO NOT HARM ANYONE UNLESS YOUR LAWS ALLOW IT!
Even if you are under attack by a traitor, you can't fight back directly!

Perks

  • Immune to toxins, suffocation damage and extreme temperatures.
  • Immune to most maladies (diseases, radiation, etc).
  • Can survive in space and navigate it if equipped with a propulsion upgrade or a fire extinguisher.
  • Resistant (but not immune) to stuns in general. Flashes and stun batons are still very effective against cyborgs.
  • Has a set of items, which cannot be removed or lost.
  • Access to the mostly-private robotic channel.
  • Can interact with computers from afar.
  • Can pull anything without being slowed down, including corpses, downed humans, and a crate/locker/container of player mobs not on Help intent. Nuclear bombs are the one exception.
  • Can call the Escape Shuttle without having to insert the appropriate ID card.

Restrictions

  • Unable to pick up, use, equip or interact with external items. The exception are most computers, robots and other machines, as long as they are powered.
  • Limited by the charge of their power cell, which is displayed in the status panel.
  • Must follow the laws of the AI.
  • Can be forcibly self-destructed by using the robotics computer unless protected.
  • Takes damage from taser shots and similar energy particles.

Cyborg Interface

CyborgGUI.png

Click on the module panel to select a starter module, if yours starts out empty and just shows a command prompt. Once you've picked one, use the module panel icon to access your equipment. Pick the tool you need, then click the frame of the corresponding item slot to select it, just like a hand. You can free that slot for other equipment by using the store highlighted item button. All things in an active slot consume battery charge constantly, so needlessly leaving things equipped will mandate more frequent recharging. Also keep an eye on your health indicator.

There are other buttons and icons on your main interface:

  • Atmosphere and temperature - Of no importance to cyborgs, but this information can be essential for ensuring the safety of humans.
  • Radio panel - Change the frequency of your radio or mute the mic.
  • Intent and targeting - Determines which part of the body you want to target when you are interacting with a human, and how. Generally only relevant for medical cyborgs.
  • Stop pulling - If you're pulling something, click this button to release the object.
  • Upgrade panel - Allows you to activate/deactivate installed upgrades. This panel can be hidden when you don't need it.

In addition, there are a couple of verbs in the Robot Commands tab on your right, towards the top:

  • Cyborg PDA - Pulls up your internal PDA, equipped with a unique cartridge.
  • Show Alerts - Not fully functional, but it does list drained or disabled APCs.
  • Show Laws - Self-explanatory.
  • Toggle Interface Lock - Locks/unlocks your interface, allowing access to your head compartment and chest cover. This would otherwise require a roboticist's (or better) ID.
  • Open Nearest Door to... - Opens up a list of people within range of the station's cameras and, well, opens whatever door is closest to them. Only works if you're a cyborg with an AI interface board.
  • Recall to Mainframe - If you're a cyborg shell controlled by the AI, you move back to your core and regain all the associated AI abilities. If you aren't, it does nothing.

Also, electronic equipment (doors, computers, APCs, etc) may be clicked on and interacted with as though you were the AI. Remember to follow your laws during these interactions, e.g. do not shock doors to subdue the traitor, as that would be harming a human!

Charging stations

Cyborgdockingstation.png

The charging stations are intended for the maintenance of cyborgs and can be used to repair damage and recharge their power cell. Cyborgs can enter the station by using drag & drop or the Move Inside verb (right click). Roboticists may also customize a cyborg's name, appearance, module and upgrades. In the absence of a helping hand, limited self-service is still possible. Simply insert upgrades and clothing by drag-and-dropping them into the charging station. Clothing for the head, mask, exo-suit and jumpsuit slots can be worn by cyborgs.

Charging stations are available in the following areas:

Anatomy of a Cyborg

Cyborgs are a bit more modular than their organic crewmates, so two cyborgs are rarely exactly alike. A cyborg's physical frame is made up of a head, a chest, two arms, and two legs. Players who start the round as cyborgs, or are converted by nanomachines, will spawn in light frames, which are the fastest and most fragile suits.

Body

Frame and chest

Centerpieces which keep the cyborg together and function as mounting points for the extremities and internal components. They cannot be reinforced despite their importance.

Item Image Description
Frame
CyborgFrame.png
The part which holds everything together. Can be emagged to make a Emagged frame with no laws.
Frame (Syndicate)
CyborgFrame.png
Activated cyborg (excluding AI-controlled ones) will have a special set of laws and capabilities.
Chest (Light)
CyborgChestLight.png
Houses the cyborg's battery, module, and any upgrades it may have. It is also critical, and the cyborg will be killed if the chest unit is destroyed.
Chest (Standard)
CyborgChestStandard.png
Significantly more durable, but that point is largely academic as even a light chest will often be the only thing left intact if a cyborg is caught in a bomb blast.

Battery

Cyborgs run on batteries that must be recharged periodically. Without a battery, a cyborg is nonfunctional. When your battery starts running below 1000 PU or so, your item slots empty out, and you can't use your them until you recharge. If you let trickle down to zero, you can't talk or make emotes, and you are unable to pull or interact with things.

The vast majority of the time, you'll have a 15000 PU battery. For most non-engineering borgs, this lasts almost an entire hour with moderate use. There are better batteries, including self-recharging ones, but robotics rarely gets the materials to make one unless you bring it personally, so don't worry about it.

Item Image Description
Power Cell
PowerCell.png
Your standard 15k battery, found in Robotics and on cell chargers everywhere.
Cerenkite Power Cell
CerenkitePowerCell.png
A 15000 capacity cell that recharges itself. The recharge rate is pretty slow, but visiting a recharger less often is still nice. Made by robotics and mining fabs.
Erebite Power Cell
ErebitePowerCell.png
Self-recharges twice as quickly as the cerenkite cell, but is highly reactive, practically making you a walking bomb. Keep away from sparks, fire, lasers, and other heat sources when equipped with one. Made by robotics and mining fabs.
Custom Large Energy Cell
CustomLargeCell.png
Large cells made through the the nano-fab. Can be self-recharging with certain materials and can have exceptionally large capacity if the material used has high conductivity.
Artifact Cell
EgunPowerCellArtifact.gif
Capacity can vary wildy, from a rather laughable 1500 to a handsome 100000, with most going below 15000. In any case, it always has an high self-recharge rate that can offset the power drain from most tools. Sometimes dug up through mining and can be one of the possible random artifact spawns in Artifact Research, the Debris Field, the Trench, the Mining Level, and the Adventure Zone.

Head

This is a critical part for all cyborgs, as it carries the brain that allows them to function. If the head is destroyed, the cyborg immediately shuts down and drops its incredibly vulnerable brain onto the floor at its feet. For this reason, cyborgs benefit greatly from having the roboticist reinforce their head. The head cannot be reinforced after a cyborg is activated, so this is usually a consideration if you are designing your own body prior to being borged.

Item Image Description
Head (Light)
CyborgHeadLight.png
Weak and very fragile, but it does let the cyborg move noticeably faster.
Head (Standard)
RobotHead.png
The middle ground so to speak. Significantly sturdier without the excessive weight of reinforced heads.
Head (Sturdy)
CyborgHeadSturdy.png
Can withstand a bit more abuse, incurs a slight speed penalty.
Head (Heavy)
CyborgHeadHeavy.png
Impressively durable. One of these will slow the cyborg down a lot.

Arms and legs

Cyborgs ideally have both a pair of arms and legs. Arms allow them to pull things around and use tools from their module, and as such represent a specific slot each (left equals No 1, right is No 3). If both arms are destroyed, the cyborg remains active but is limited to the No 2 item slot. Legs are likewise non-critical, yet losing them will slow the cyborg's movement speed dramatically.

Item Image Description
Arm (Light)
CyborgArmLight.png
Speedy and easily destroyed.
Arm (Standard)
CyborgArmStandard.png
Average durability.
Arm (Sturdy)
CyborgArmSturdy.png
Less likely to be blown off by an explosion. Incurs a slight speed penalty.
Arm (Heavy)
CyborgArmHeavy.png
Extremely resistant to damage, and also very heavy.
Leg (Light)
CyborgLegLight.png
Speedy and easily destroyed, as with all light cyborg parts.
Leg (Standard)
CyborgLegStandard.png
Average durability.
Leg (Treads)
CyborgLegTreads.png
For almost all intents, treads are objectively better than legs and allow slightly faster movement, and thus offset reinforced components to a degree. However, they also tax the power cell quite a bit.
Alastor Pattern Thrusters
AlastorPatternThrusters.png
Hover in the air with magical rocket legs! Boosts that borgs with the most reinforced components can move at a tolerable pace, albeit still slower than base human speed. Rocket flames surprisingly have little effect on the environment, as they are unable to heat up things below the cyborg. Blueprints for these are in some Adventure Zone location.

Patching up

As mentioned, cyborgs are immune to many types of damage. They can still get dented and burnt, though, so repairs might become necessary:

Brute damage
  • Automatic - Enter a charging station, select Repair Structural Damage and an appropriate amount of welding fuel.
  • Manual - Use a welding tool on the damaged cyborg. Works for AI shells as well.
Burn damage
  • Automatic - Enter a charging station, select Repair Burn Damage and an appropriate amount of wiring.
  • Manual - Unlock the cyborg's interface, open the cover with a crowbar and expose the wiring with a screwdriver. You can then replace the burnt wiring with a cable coil. AI shells: simply use the cable coil on them, nothing else is required.

Upgrades

In addition to the tools provided by their module (see below), cyborgs have can get a few extra perks from installed upgrade packages. By default, every cyborg has three slots for upgrades. You will occasionally get one of these for free when choosing your initial module.

Item Single-
use?
Description
Efficiency Upgrade No As a cyborg, you will constantly be looking with worry at your battery. This useful upgrade lowers your base power usage by 1.
Expansion Upgrade Yes Adds another slot for upgrades. The more expansion upgrades you take, the more power you draw. Lots more. As in, exponentially more.
Force Shield Upgrade No Generates a forcefield that reflects all projectiles (bullets, energy weapon shots, even rockets, but not thrown items), blocks low damage (<4) attacks, and reduces incoming brute damage by 50%. Draws lots of power, especially when tanking blob attacks. Great for Syndicate cyborgs who want to go in swinging with a fire extinguisher.
Heat Shield Upgrade No Exactly like the force shield, projectile reflection and all, except this one reduces burn damage rather than brute. Excellent for resisting acidfoam or tanking laser shots and the like.
Meson Upgrade No Gives you the benefit of Meson Goggles, allowing you to see the layout of the station and asteroids. This is absolutely critical if you are going mining as a cyborg and somewhat useful for messing with the engine
ProDoc Healthgoggles No Allows you to assess the health of humans at a glance, just like health goggles. Exceptionally useful for doctoring.
Propulsion Upgrade No This lets you navigate in space as though you had a jetpack, which makes you infinitely more useful to the station and also makes playing as a borg infinitely more fun. Instead of being confined to the station, you can go EVA to rescue people or explore the Debris Field with someone. Without one of these, your only hope to navigate is to use a fire extinguisher, which not all modules have.
Recharge Pack Yes This single-use upgrade fully recharges the cyborg's battery. Useful if you're planning on going exploring or have a project you don't want to be distracted from.
Recovery Upgrade No Immediately reboots your systems, nullifying the effects of flashes and other stun weaponry. Drains 3333 PU per use.
Repair Pack Yes Cyborgs are generally resilient, but they pay for this by not being able to recover from damage very easily, since most modules can only repair themselves by returning to a recharging station. This single-use upgrade fixes this by giving the cyborg a full repair that they can activate at their convenience.
Self-Repair Upgrade No Allows the cyborg to continually expend energy to repair itself. Can be a saving grace if the charging stations are destroyed, but it drains the cyborg's battery quite rapidly.
Speed Upgrade No Standard and reinforced cyborgs are much slower than humans, and you are going to lose any footrace with a healthy human. The speed upgrade changes that, effectively turning you into a massive metal Speedy Gonzalez. Absolutely fantastic any time you want to cover a lot of ground in a straight line, but very obnoxious any time you need to make turns. The module can be difficult to control, so make sure to turn it off when you don't want to be dashing down the hallways at the speed of sound.
Teleporter Upgrade No Allows the cyborg to bring up a menu as if they were at the teleporter room computer and teleport themselves to any valid tracking beacon.
Construction Visualizer No Allows cyborg to see the overlays created by the Plan Designator and Material Shaper. Useless if there isn't a Construction Worker onboard.

Modules

The majority of a cyborg's functionality comes from its module, which defines which tools it has access to. This can be changed with the help of a roboticist, though a rewritten or inserted module will not give you any initial upgrade associated with that module.

When you open your panel interface for the first time, you get to pick a free starter module. This WILL give you an initial upgrade for some choices, depending on the module. Every module comes with:

  • Flashlight.png Flashlight
  • Omnitool - a Swiss Knife of tools. Click on it the cycle it through five modes.
  • Analyser.png Atmospheric analyzer
  • HealthAnalyzerFullyUpgraded.png Health analyzer - Comes with the reagent scanner upgrade by default too.
  • ReagentScanner.png Reagent scanner
  • Cell cables - Recharge APCs manually or use them to recharge yourself. Expose the wiring with your screwdriver, then attach the cables. The direction of power flow depends on the mode of the cables. Both are 1:1 ratio of APC power to cell power.
    • Positive (red) mode: Uses power from your internal battery to charge the APC's.
    • Negative (blue) mode: Uses the APC's battery to recharge your cell.

In additions, all modules come with an internal PDA with the Cyborg Internal cartridge, which, as previously mentioned, you can pull up with the Cyborg PDA command. It comes with a few scanner apps, among other things, and messaging is handy, because robotic chat is often compromised.

All cyborgs equipped with beakers/drinking glasses/bottles or similar containers have access to drag & drop functionality for ease of use. To directly transfer reagents from containers that aren't in your inventory, click-drag them onto a suitable receptacle in one of your item slots. Large water and fuel tanks also support the same mechanic for certain target receptacles. Furthermore, cyborgs can use drag & drop to attach barcode labels to crates and other objects.

In additions, when a cyborg inserts a beaker or similar container into a chemical dispenser, instead of the normal fancy UI with buttons that dispense and remove a pre-set amount of chems, they use a rather clunky pop-up menu where they select what reagent they want and then have to specify how much of that reagent they want. Removing reagents is rather difficult, so dispense carefully. It helps if you have a list of chemical group configurations for common chems.

Civilian

Cooks your food, grows your weed, and cleans after all that too! To plant seeds, use drag and drop or synthesize them directly with your fabricator. You can also use drag and drop to stuff seeds, produce and plant formulas into the PlantMaster for experimentation, and produce into the reagent extractor for extraction.

Equipment:

  • FireExtinguisher2.png Fire extinguisher - Also doubles as an impromptu jetpack.
  • PenNew.png Pen - Write notes and menus that no one will read!
  • PlantAnalyzer.png Plant analyzer
  • WateringCan.png Watering can - Also doubles as a beaker.
  • Portable seed fabricator - Everything, including the fun stuff (weed, slurrypods etc).
  • CompostBag.png Compost bag - Make use of a compost tank if you wish to refill it.
  • Igniter.png Igniter - Get rid of a plant without dumping the tray out.
  • ElectricChainsaw.png Chainsaw - Very effective at trimming hedges, not so good at trimming human heads.
  • Satchel.png Produce satchel
  • SprayBottle.png Cleaner bottle - A spray bottle of space cleaner.
  • Mop.png Mop - Won't be very useful without the mop bucket.
  • Bucket.png Bucket - To transfer water to said bucket. Also doubles as a beaker.
  • Camera viewer.png Camera monitor - Lets you view the cameras. Remember to deselect the module containing the monitor, or you won't be able to affect anything you see.
  • Rolling Pin.png Lightweight rolling pin - Still lets you make pizza dough and such, but does little damage.
  • Knife.png Bread knife - Great for cutting delicious pizza and cake. Not so great for cutting humans.
  • File:IcingTube.png Icing tube

Equipment:

Starting Upgrade: Optical Meson Scanner Upgrade

Medical

Much like a medical doctor, or medbot with a brain.

Equipment:

  • Defibrillator.png Defibrillator - Fixes cardiac arrest (heart failure). Apply drugs to stabilize patients or they'll get new heart attacks.
  • Scalpel.png Scalpel - For cutting out bullets, shrapnel and implants. Use drag & drop to put people on a surgery table.

  • Hemostat.png Hemostat - Reduces the amount of bleeding damage taken during surgery.
  • Suture.png Suture - Closes open wounds and stops bleeding.
  • BloodBag.png Blood pack - Use this if somebody has suffered severe blood loss. Can be refilled by drawing blood from a donor or by transferring blood from a beaker, dropper or syringe.
  • AutoMenderBurn.png Burn auto-mender - Rapidly heals varying amounts of BURN damage, depending on how hurt the patient is. While the tooltip might say it has only 200 units, it actually has infinite silver sulfadiazine.
  • AutoMenderBrute.png Brute auto-mender - The same, but for brute damage and with styptic powder.
  • Syringe2.png Syringe x2 - Empty syringes you can fill with whatever you want. It's generally a good idea to keep one of them loaded with epinephrine, and the other filled with anti-toxin at all times. Remember, injecting toxins is harming a human!
  • Hypo.png Hypospray x2
  • DropperNew.png Dropper - For topical drugs. Refer to Doctoring for the whole list.
  • Epinephrine reserve tank - 100 units of epinephrine, to be used with your syringes. Keeps critically injured patients alive while you prepare damage-specific medicine.
  • Anti-Toxin reserve tank - Charcoal, to be precise. Heals toxin damage.
  • LargeBeaker.png Large beaker - 100u capacity, for all those odd medicines.

Starting Upgrade: Health Scanner Upgrade

Mining

Your job is to use the mineral magnet and help the Miners. Note that you do not get an optical meson upgrade when you choose this module, so insist upon getting one from your roboticist or make one yourself.

Since you can't directly load materials in fabricators and processors as a borg, you have do it in roundabout way. To refine materials into finished blocks, bars, and blobs, click on a processor or reclaimer with the satchel. To load these refined materials into a fabricator or manufacturer, put it in a crate, then click-drag the crate onto the fabricator.

Equipment:

  • LaserDrillV2.png Laser drill - One of the best personal digging tools out there.
  • Cargotransporter.png Cargo transporter - This allows you to teleport crates full of ore back to the station. Click the crate with an empty hand to close it properly.
  • GeologicalScanner.png Geological scanner - Scans the local area for things like explosive veins, gems, and other dangers.
  • OreScoop.png Ore scoop - Comes with a satchel, which cannot be detached. Walk over loose ore, then click on a floor tile, table or crate to dump the ore.
  • Satchel.png Large mining satchel x2 - If either of them has somehow ended up on the floor, the Store button on the HUD should add it back to your inventory.
  • SpaceGPSNew.png Space GPS
  • FireExtinguisher2.png Fire extinguisher

Starting Upgrade: Propulsion Upgrade

Chemistry

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to overcome the clunky chemical dispenser UI and unleash colorful reagent smoke everywhere. Or help resupply medbay maybe.

Equipment:

Starting upgrade: None
