*Deconstruct a grille(4 Ammo)
*Deconstruct a window(8 Ammo)
*Deconstruct an airlock(32 Ammo)
<br>
Can be loaded with Compressed Matter Cartridges and regular metal and glass sheets. One Cartridge holds 40 units, with 160 being the maximum. Be forewarned that changing RCD mode can cause it to emit sparks, which can cause fires in plasma-rich environiments.
It also can robust the shit out people. Or AIs, if needed.
<br>
*'''Can be upgraded''' with an ''RCD advanced design disk'', which can be printed from the engineering protolathe after research. This lets the RCD create:
**Wired/wrenched [[Guide_to_advanced_construction#Machine_Construction_Steps|machine frames]] [[File:Wired_Frame.png]]
**Computer frames
**Simple circuits, which contain the designs for firelock, air alarm, fire alarm, apc circuits and basic power cells. These work the same as the [[Cyborg#Engineering|engineering cyborg's]] Electroadaptive Pseudocircuit. <br><br>

*'''Can also be upgraded''' with an ''Advanced RCD silo link upgrade'', which can be printed from the engineering protolathe after research. With this upgrade, the RCD can be used on an [[Guide_to_advanced_construction#Ore_Silo|Ore Silo]] to permanently link it. Afterwards, the RCD will pull materials directly from that silo, and will no longer need to be reloaded manually.

It also can robust the shit out people. Or AIs, if needed.
<br>
*'''Can be upgraded''' with an ''RCD advanced design disk'', which can be printed from the engineering protolathe after research. This lets the RCD create:
**Wired/wrenched [[Guide_to_advanced_construction#Machine_Construction_Steps|machine frames]] [[File:Wired_Frame.png]]
**Computer frames
**Simple circuits, which contain the designs for firelock, air alarm, fire alarm, apc circuits and basic power cells. These work the same as the [[Cyborg#Engineering|engineering cyborg's]] Electroadaptive Pseudocircuit. <br><br>

*'''Can also be upgraded''' with an ''Advanced RCD silo link upgrade'', which can be printed from the engineering protolathe after research. With this upgrade, the RCD can be used on an [[Guide_to_advanced_construction#Ore_Silo|Ore Silo]] to permanently link it.

It also can robust the shit out people. Or AIs, if needed.
<br>
*'''Can be upgraded''' with an ''RCD advanced design disk'', which can be printed from the engineering protolathe after research. This lets the RCD create:
**Wired/wrenched [[Guide_to_advanced_construction#Machine_Construction_Steps|machine frames]] [[File:Wired_Frame.png]]
**Computer frames
**Simple circuits, which contain the designs for firelock, air alarm, fire alarm, apc circuits and basic power cells. These work the same as the [[Cyborg#Engineering|engineering cyborg's]] Electroadaptive Pseudocircuit. <br><br>

*'''Can also be upgraded''' with an ''Advanced RCD silo link upgrade'', which can be printed from the engineering protolathe after research. With this upgrade, the RCD can be used on an [[Guide_to_advanced_construction#Ore_Silo|Ore Silo]] to permanently link it.

It also can robust the shit out people. Or AIs, if needed.
<br>
*'''Can be upgraded''' with an ''RCD advanced design disk'', which can be printed from the engineering protolathe after research. This lets the RCD create:
**Wired/wrenched [[Guide_to_advanced_construction#Machine_Construction_Steps|machine frames]] [[File:Wired_Frame.png]]
**Computer frames
**Simple circuits, which contain the designs for firelock, air alarm, fire alarm, apc circuits and basic power cells. These work the same as the [[Cyborg#Engineering|engineering cyborg's]] Electroadaptive Pseudocircuit. <br><br>

*'''Can also be upgraded''' with an ''Advanced RCD silo link upgrade'', which can be printed from the engineering protolathe after research. With this upgrade, the RCD can be used on an [[Guide_to_advanced_construction#Ore_Silo|Ore Silo]] to permanently link it.

*'''Can be upgraded''' with an ''RCD advanced design disk'', which can be printed from the engineering protolathe after research. This lets the RCD create:
**Wired/wrenched [[Guide_to_advanced_construction#Machine_Construction_Steps|machine frames]] [[File:Wired_Frame.png]]
**Computer frames
**Simple circuits, which contain the designs for firelock, air alarm, fire alarm, apc circuits and basic power cells. These work the same as the [[Cyborg#Engineering|engineering cyborg's]] Electroadaptive Pseudocircuit. <br><br>

*'''Can also be upgraded''' with an ''Advanced RCD silo link upgrade'', which can be printed from the engineering protolathe after research. With this upgrade, the RCD can be used on an [[Guide_to_advanced_construction#Ore_Silo|Ore Silo]] to permanently link it. Afterwards, the RCD will pull materials directly from that silo, and will no longer need to be reloaded manually.

It also can robust the shit out people. Or AIs, if needed.
<br>
*'''Can be upgraded''' with an ''RCD advanced design disk'', which can be printed from the engineering protolathe after research. This lets the RCD create:
**Wired/wrenched [[Guide_to_advanced_construction#Machine_Construction_Steps|machine frames]] [[File:Wired_Frame.png]]
**Computer frames
**Simple circuits, which contain the designs for firelock, air alarm, fire alarm, apc circuits and basic power cells. These work the same as the [[Cyborg#Engineering|engineering cyborg's]] Electroadaptive Pseudocircuit. <br><br>

*'''Can also be upgraded''' with an ''Advanced RCD silo link upgrade'', which can be printed from the engineering protolathe after research. With this upgrade, the RCD can be used on an [[Guide_to_advanced_construction#Ore_Silo|Ore Silo]] to permanently link it. Afterwards, the RCD will pull materials directly from that silo, and will no longer need to be reloaded manually.

<br>
*'''Can be upgraded''' with an ''RCD advanced design disk'', which can be printed from the engineering protolathe after research. This lets the RCD create:
**Wired/wrenched [[Guide_to_advanced_construction#Machine_Construction_Steps|machine frames]] [[File:Wired_Frame.png]]
**Computer frames
**Simple circuits, which contain the designs for firelock, air alarm, fire alarm, apc circuits and basic power cells. These work the same as the [[Cyborg#Engineering|engineering cyborg's]] Electroadaptive Pseudocircuit. <br><br>

*'''Can also be upgraded''' with an ''Advanced RCD silo link upgrade'', which can be printed from the engineering protolathe after research. With this upgrade, the RCD can be used on an [[Guide_to_advanced_construction#Ore_Silo|Ore Silo]] to permanently link it.

*'''Can be upgraded''' with an ''RCD advanced design disk'', which can be printed from the engineering protolathe after research. This lets the RCD create:
**Wired/wrenched [[Guide_to_advanced_construction#Machine_Construction_Steps|machine frames]] [[File:Wired_Frame.png]]
**Computer frames
**Simple circuits, which contain the designs for firelock, air alarm, fire alarm, apc circuits and basic power cells. These work the same as the [[Cyborg#Engineering|engineering cyborg's]] Electroadaptive Pseudocircuit. <br><br>

*'''Can also be upgraded''' with an ''Advanced RCD silo link upgrade'', which can be printed from the engineering protolathe after research.

<br>
Can be loaded with Compressed Matter Cartridges and regular metal and glass sheets. One Cartridge holds 40 units, with 160 being the maximum. Be forewarned that changing RCD mode can cause it to emit sparks, which can cause fires in plasma-rich environiments.
It also can robust the shit out people. Or AIs, if needed.
<br>
*'''Can be upgraded''' with an ''RCD advanced design disk'', which can be printed from the engineering protolathe after research. This lets the RCD create:
**Wired/wrenched [[Guide_to_advanced_construction#Machine_Construction_Steps|machine frames]] [[File:Wired_Frame.png]]
**Computer frames
**Simple circuits, which contain the designs for firelock, air alarm, fire alarm, apc circuits and basic power cells. These work the same as the [[Cyborg#Engineering|engineering cyborg's]] Electroadaptive Pseudocircuit. <br><br>

*'''Can also be upgraded''' with an ''Advanced RCD silo link upgrade'', which can be printed from the engineering protolathe after research. With this upgrade, the RCD can be used on an [[Guide_to_advanced_construction#Ore_Silo|Ore Silo]] to permanently link it. Afterwards, the RCD will pull materials directly from that silo, and will no longer need to be reloaded manually.

It also can robust the shit out people. Or AIs, if needed.
<br>
*'''Can be upgraded''' with an ''RCD advanced design disk'', which can be printed from the engineering protolathe after research. This lets the RCD create:
**Wired/wrenched [[Guide_to_advanced_construction#Machine_Construction_Steps|machine frames]] [[File:Wired_Frame.png]]
**Computer frames
**Simple circuits, which contain the designs for firelock, air alarm, fire alarm, apc circuits and basic power cells. These work the same as the [[Cyborg#Engineering|engineering cyborg's]] Electroadaptive Pseudocircuit. <br><br>

*'''Can also be upgraded''' with an ''Advanced RCD silo link upgrade'', which can be printed from the engineering protolathe after research. With this upgrade, the RCD can be used on an [[Guide_to_advanced_construction#Ore_Silo|Ore Silo]] to permanently link it. Afterwards, the RCD will pull materials directly from that silo, and will no longer need to be reloaded manually.

Are you a [[Roboticist]]? This guide will explain the creation and maintenance of [[Cyborg]]s, bots, and stocky exosuits.

=[[Exosuit Fabricator]]s=
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 one (or more) of the Exosuit Fabricators gets stuck at updating from R&D servers, use a screwdriver on it and then crowbar that fucker!
Remove any metal/glass sheets and then put all the components back into the machine frame, use a screwdriver at the end to reassemble the Exosuit Fabricator.

====[[File:Generic_borg.png|64px|class=pixelart]] [[Cyborg]]s====

Total Part Cost: 100000 [[File:Metal.png|Metal]]

{| style="background-color:#EEEEEE" width="300"
!Requires
|-
|1 x each Cyborg part (made with the [[Exosuit Fabricator]])<br>
2 x [[File:Flash.gif|Flash]] ([[Exosuit Fabricator]])<br>
1 x [[File:CableCoils.png|Cable Coil]]<br>
1 x [[File:Power_cell.png|Power Cell]] (preferably at least High-Capacity)<br>
1 x [[File:Brain.png|Brain]]→ [[File:MMI.png|MMI]] OR positronic brain OR B.O.R.I.S. module

|}

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, and may choose one of the AIs in the event that more than one exists.

Assuming you already have the necessary components:
# [[File:Power_cell.png|Power Cell]] Insert a charged power cell into the cyborg's chest
# [[File:CableCoils.png|Cable Coil]] Insert a coil of wire into the cyborg's chest
# [[File:Flash.gif|Flash]] 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
# [[File:Multitool.png|Multitool]] Multitools can be used to give cyborgs names. Simply apply the multitool before the brain is installed. Note that calling a borg 'PenisShitter 5000' will not net you any new friends, however.
# [[File:Brain.png|Brain]] Once it's complete, it's time for the brain. [[Surgery#Brain_Removal|See here how to remove your volunteer's brain.]] (If the brain has been removed from the head without surgery, you will need to pour [[Guide_to_chemistry#Mannitol|mannitol]] on it to fix it)
# [[File:MMI.png|MMI]] 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]] (or throw it down the disposals because ROBOTICS!). 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.
# Instead of a brain, you can insert a positronic brain (controlled by a ghost) or B.O.R.I.S. module (controlled by the AI) into the cyborg as well.

=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.

==Cyborg Repairs==
<span style="font-size:1.2em;">Cyborgs will often come to you for repairs if damaged.</span>
<div class="mw-collapsible-content">
For brute damage:
# [[File:Welder.png]][[Welding Tool|Weld]] them to fix the dents.
For burn damage:
# Unlock and open the Cyborg's cover.
# [[File:Hud-hands.gif]] Use an Empty Hand to remove the battery.
# [[File:Screwdriver_tool.png]] Screwdriver to expose wiring.
# [[File:CableCoils.png|Cable Coil]] Rewire the damaged circuits. You may have to do this step more than once.

Despite what some old-timer Roboticists may tell you, <b>DO NOT JUST TAKE THE BONESAW AND CUT THEIR HEAD OFF WITHOUT SURGERY.</b> Removing a brain without surgery will damage it and may result in the immediate death of the brain.

In case this happens, you will need to ask the [[Chemist]] to make some [[Guide_to_chemistry#Mannitol|Mannitol]] to fix it. Once you have a beaker of it, just splash it on the brain and it should be good to go. You can always examine the brain to see if it is still damaged.

If a head is not attached to a body, you can simply use a [[File:Scalpel.png|Scalpel]]scalpel or some other slicing/cutting item on it to cut the brain out. No need for drapes or table.

Replace a limb with a robot part. The head, torso, arms, and legs can all be augmented. Augmenting torso makes you immune to appendicitis and xeno larva.<br> Robot limbs are tougher. They need welding to "heal" brute damage and wires for burn damage, and cannot be otherwise healed. EMP pulses will hurt augmented humans.

As a Roboticist, you serve another important purpose: making robots. Robots can benefit the station in many ways, and are really damned easy to create. The current list of robots, and how to make them, is as follows:

'''Remember:''' All bots can be made through the crafting menu (T-like hammer hud-icon). This can save a lot of time during construction, especially if Robotics is busy!

The surgery works through clothes and without the patient having to lie down. Amount healed scales with [[Surgery#Tend_Wounds|tend wounds surgeries]] researched. Each researched upgrade of [[Surgery#Tend_Wounds|tend wounds]] increases health healed. Requires a "refresh" similarly to operating computers to benefit from research.

When [[Syndicate Items#Cryptographic Sequencer|emagged]] it will inject 5u [[Guide_to_chemistry#Chloral_Hydrate|chloral hydrate]] and damage you based on what they would have healed (brute if you don't need treatment) per step.<br>

What damage types the medibot can heal depends on medkit used. If they can heal multiple types the damage type healed will be random per treatment:
* Advanced first aid kit: All 4 basic damage types.
* Brute kit: 10% extra brute. (other types?)
* Burn kit: ?
* Toxin kit: ?
* Suffocation kit: ?

=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. The EMP is reusable after a cooldown of 10 seconds.

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

====EMP====
When an exosuit is hit by an EMP-effect it will take burn damage, lose some battery charge and have all its equipment disabled for 3 seconds.

====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).

{{Science Dept header}}
The Roboticist's job is to maintain the system's cybernetic sevitors, including borgs and various bots that they can create. When provided with resources, they can construct powerful Exosuits. They also support the crews synthetic population.

==The Lab==
Robotics is your home as a Roboticist. It contains [[Exosuit Fabricator]]s, used for the creation of any robotic component you require, a few cyborg recharging stations, a few Exosuit recharging stations, a chest with multiple sheets of [[metal]], [[power cells|Power Cell]], and a [[coil of wire]], and scattered tables with a [[multitool]], tool boxes, a few [[Flash|Flashes]], a [[crowbar]], a [[Proximity Sensor|proximity sensor]], more scattered power cells, and a [[cell charger]].

==Your Job==
'''Building Cyborgs:'''

First on the agenda is to fulfill any early requests to turn people into Cyborgs. <s>Steal metal from other departments for the</s> Verify the [[Exosuit Fabricator]]s has metal and get them churning out some cyborg bits. Once built you can either use a [[Positronic Brain]] or [[MMI]] by taking out their brains via [[surgery]], and put the brains in MMIs. Then, stuff the brainless corpses <s>down disposals</s> in the Morgue. Finally, insert the MMIs into the cyborg shells. You now have cyborgs!

'''Repairing Cyborgs, Synthetics, and Mechs:'''

The robotic based crew and equipment will need repairs over the course of the shift.

'''Preform Upgrades <s>and Empowering Your Mechanical Overlords</s>:'''

R&D will research various upgrades and implants that the crew will ask to be installed. Some of these will be implants requested by the <s>stupid meat sacks</s> biological crew members. Brush up on your [[surgery]] procedures before doing this, or send them to medical.

'''Build MOD Suits:'''

Eventually [[MODsuits|MODSuits]] components will be become available to build and upgrade. Various departments will <s>bitch at you</s> request for some to be built.

==Life on the Assembly Line==
Try to keep at least 1 complete cyborg body on standby for the inevitable train of corpses that will be coming through your door. In the downtime, feel free to devote your precious metal and time to building [[Guide to robotics#Bots|robots]] or [[Guide to robotics#Exosuits|exosuits]]. If Mining all died off or R&D is uncooperative, keep busy by stealing a bucket from Hydroponics (Or the Cargo Autolathe) and creating Cleanbots, or using up all your Medkits for more Medibots.

Sync your Exosuit Fabricators for extra miscellaneous parts and cyborg upgrades, and get building. Mining should obtain the metals you need. You will have a love-hate relationship with the R&D lab and its residents; on the one hand they are required for you to obtain mech circuits and equipment, but on the other they are taking all that wonderful silver from you that could be going to making a [[Guide_to_robotics#Durand|Durand]]. Once you do get enough ores though, it's smooth sailing. Make exosuits, give them to people with little-to-no authorization, and watch the ensuing chaos from your comfy chair.

==Other tips==

# Keep your metal organized, and understand how much each machine will take (and you will always need more metal).
# Glass is important for your robotics work, as are various devices, security equipment and rare minerals. Don't waste them.
# Have a plan before you start building anything huge, like an exosuit (without obtaining the necessary circuitry, they are useless).
# Make sure to perform maintenance on cyborgs that come in; Nanotrasen usually doesn't load them with anything but the minimum required power cells. Fifth, tech storage is your friend. It has two flashes, two power cells, and insulated gloves. For bonus points, beg the CE/RD/AI to let you into secure tech storage to get a robotics/exosuit circuitboard to control what you make in case it decides to kill everyone.
# Ensure you have proper eye protection when you weld, or you'll become blind quickly.

'''Do's and Don'ts'''

'''Do:'''
*Make cyborg bodies and install MMI's in them.
*Try to borg antagonists instead of having security kill them. They fail their objectives and are no longer a danger, being restricted by their laws.
*Cut LawSync and reset cyborg laws when the AI is rogue.
*Make useful bots and leave them around the station.
*Make drone shells so players can <s>steal all your metal and glass</s> rejoin the round.
*Put beacons in all Exosuits, and DNA lock them, lest they get stolen.
*Make a Cyborg and Exosuit Control Console.
*Try to make your own boards by <s>raiding R&D</s> getting R&D to unlock the mech technologies.
*Recognize that the QM might be more inclined to get you some more metals if you don't eat up all of their points with Ripley boards.

'''Don't:'''
*Put an MMI in a cyborg shell without making sure it isn't braindead (they can speak you know).
*Blow all the cyborgs because one was emagged.
*Immediately blow all cyborgs when the AI is malfunctioning - Instead, take apart your Robotics Control console and relocate it somewhere off camera so you can lock the cyborgs and reset them to become a powerful ally against the AI.
*Try to make an exosuit you don't have materials for, nothing is more useless than a pile of Durand limbs while you beg for metal and silver.
*Go on exosuit rocket launcher rampages 'because you can'.
*Be an asshat.
*Build an exosuit for anyone who just comes by and asks for one (and won't accept a Tracking Beacon).

==Tips==
===Robots===
* Medibots are a bit more robust than people often seem to account for. They're capable of stabilising multiple people in critical condition, and have infinite basic chemicals.
**Additionally, you can make medical bots out of any of the different colors of first aid kit available on the station, and the resulting medical bot will keep that color.
**A good tweak to do to medical bots is to reduce their healing threshold. Use your PDA/ID to unlock their interface, and reduce it to 5 - they will heal people who are at 95% health or less now, which is great for topping people up. Remember to lock it after you are done.
**Remember to synchronize the Medibots with researches; that way they will be much more efficient.
**You can stop an already-deployed Medibot from running away after the nearest hurt person as you drag them towards where they're needed the most simply by temporarily turning them off, or by setting them to stationary mode.
**Medical robots all use the same chemicals as standard, so it won't stack if they inject a lot of it into you at once or if multiple medical robots inject you. The chemical will, however, linger in your body at high concentrations - a person can be brought out of crit by having multiple medical robots healing them before a fight.
**If there are [[Guide_to_races#Jelly_and_Slime_Mutants|slimefolks]] and green Medibots, <s>enjoy the show</s> put them on stationary or disable them before the slimes get more TOX damage than engineers around the SM.
**The Derelict has all the materials needed to create a medical bot. Start your search at the broken Medbay near the chapel.
*Anywhere between adding the robotic arm and the sensor module, you can write on a robot assembly with a pen to rename the resulting robot, much like cyborgs. This is useful for keeping track of medical robots, as otherwise they're all just named "Medibot".
* Small robot assemblies can be carried in your backpack. Leaving the final piece out of a robot assembly and slamming it together in your backpack at the site of an issue makes for an effective response.
===Mechs===
* Mechs are space worthy as long as you enable the air inside your cabin. This can be useful if you don't have a space suit and you need to cross dangerous breaches.
* Losing a mech to an explosion will eject you completely unharmed (probably a good idea to be in space gear though).
* Mech drills can bust open lockers to get the goodies inside.

*RIPLEYs are a Roboticist's best friend. Their drill can cut through almost anything including most items, walls, even blast doors. The diamond drill can even cut through Reinforced walls. It is also a fairly robust weapon and can gib corpses.
** It also has fairly robust armor and can resist continuous laser fire from multiple sources for several seconds.
** When it is destroyed turrets cannot target anyone standing on the same square as it (i.e. the person who was inside when it went boom)

* The Odysseus is a force to be reckoned with. It can scan any chemicals, including drinks. The Odysseus' internal generator makes infinite amounts of any chemical, and syringes fired with the syringe gun can be recovered, meaning you can fire infinite amounts of liquid to use as reagents.
** You can mix five different chemicals in any syringe (which still only holds 15u, meaning 5 chems equals 3 of each). This can be used to create an amazing healing concoction or an extremely powerful killer syringe. For instance:
*** Healing mixture: Omnizine.
*** Harming mixture: Lexorin, Unstable mutagen, Beepsky Smash.
** Clicking a box of syringes while in an Odysseus with syringe gun equipped will load every syringe from the box in the Odysseus.

===Tips for Traitoring===
* People can't tell who you are when you are inside a mech and have to go by the mechs name... which you can change at any time. Changed your mechs name to some other mech and you can walk across the station as a confirmed traitor, so long as you don't speak.
* You can load a Medibot with '''any''' chemical mixture. Insert [[Guide_to_chemistry#Skewium|skewium]] in a medibot and have it wander around injecting people? Sure!

==Being an Evil Genius==
Traitoring as a Roboticist is fun and easy, especially since you spawn with flashes, and an expectation of building very dangerous machines. Your high station access, and access to tech storage will allow you to get pretty much anywhere, considering that you can have gloves off the bat. And, of course, [[Syndicate Items#Cryptographic_Sequencer|emagging]] any of your basic creations serves to cause havoc and chaos. The toxins kit's contents poured into a single large beaker of an emagged Medibot can create a very dangerous 'helper'. Emagging the [[Cyborg|cyborgs]] equips them with a Syndicate lawset, gives them special new tools, and prevents them from being fucked with on a control console. Though remember, cyborgs slaved to a [[Guide_to_malfunction|malfunctional AI]] can not be [[Syndicate_Items#Emag|emagged]].
If you want to make a cyborg despite having no volunteers, it's never a bad idea to simple drag the body of your last murder victim back to the lab for a debraining - Rarely do people question you once the body is already being operated on.

Most important, you have your purple soft cap to signify <s>your duty to the station</s> who to lynch when the [[Clown]] is wetting floors.

===Wet Floor Signs===
Drop warning signs where you mop. People get pissed when you don't. You don't have enough to cover every area you clean and between lag and every player running everywhere they're usually not spotted until people are already on their backs, but they can't blame you for doing what you can!

Shaking up those you slipped maintains favour with the crew. Do this by clicking on them with an empty hand. Smugly pointing at one of your signs incurs their ire.

Also, if people are chasing you, throw a bucket of water behind you, or where they will run into it, as they likely want to steal from you (your shoes are valuable). Or fill your spray bottle with a little water to quickly take down huge amounts of people.

People assume if someone slips, it was your doing. This may not be true. Often it was the [[chemist]] with [[Guide_to_chemistry#Space_Lube|space lube]], or a [[clown]] with a bucket of water. It's possible to differentiate between slipping on a wet floor and slipping on a lubed floor.

Make sure the [[detective]] has cleared a scene before you clean up an area of some blood. Follow people dragging bodies to the medical bay; they leave long trails of blood which means more work for you.

People are going to accidentally charge your cart halfway down the hallway. Kind people will get on the other side of it and push it back to you. There's no avoiding this, apart from not using the cart and relying on the space cleaner [[File:Cleaner.png]], or using the mop with buckets of water held on your person. This would require you to carry signs too.

A janitor [[cyborg]] is usually a more efficient janitor than you. It can clean floors by just moving onto them. But so can you once you get your [[Research_items#Floor_Buffer_Upgrade|floor buffer upgrade]].

==Cleaning Without Being Lynched==
Your janitorial cart can hold up to 100 units of liquid. This does not need to be straight water. If you're able to get [[Chemistry]] to give you 50 units of ammonia, you can mix it with 50 units of water. Congratulations! You just created 100 units of [[Guide to chemistry#Space Cleaner|Space Cleaner]]. Mopping the floor with [[Guide_to_chemistry#Space_Cleaner|Space Cleaner]] does not leave it slippery. People might still assume that if you're mopping without the signs that you're creating a safety hazard, so make sure to correct them BEFORE they choke you to death.

The bars of [[soap]] are a great cleaning implement on the station. They don't leave slippery puddles behind, and they're good for getting those hard-to-reach places (like that vomit under the surgery table) that cleaning grenades can't. Your bar of Nanotrasen brand soap is limited to 300 uses.

Remember that your bottle of Space Cleaner [[File:Cleaner.png]] can clean tiles instantly as well. If you aim far enough from your position, you can clean up to five tiles in a single spray. Useful to quickly clean up your [[Traitor|evidence]].

By right-clicking on the spray bottle, you can tip the contents out of it.

You can clean bloody people by spraying them with your Space Cleaner [[File:Cleaner.png]].

Spray people with space cleaner if they are covered in blood around their head and chest (but not if they have bloody gloves). This usually makes people happy, as security officers won't hound them as much. Sometimes the station needs a hero though, all you need to do is mop the right floor, or spray water at the right time to stop the worst fiend humanity has ever known.

==Tips==
* Your [[PDA]] has a '''Custodial Locator'''. Use this to locate your janitorial cart [[File:Janitorial Cart.png]] or [[General_items#Mop|mop]] [[File:Mop.png|32x32px]]. This can also help you find your Custodial Closet, since that's where those items spawn.
* Your ID has access to the settings of [[Guide_to_robotics#Cleanbot|cleanbots]] [[File:Cleanbot.gif]]. Click a cleanbot with your ID to unlock it. You can then click the robot to alter its settings and turn it on or off.
* Instead of refilling the Light Replacer [[File:Lightreplacer0.png|32x32px]] with light tubes/bulbs, you can refill it with glass sheets [[File:Glass.png]].
* Lost your galoshes? Need more default Cleaner Grenades or buckets? Cargo can order a Janitorial Cart and Galoshes Crate and a Janitorial Supply crate, if you ask nicely.
* Clicking a spray bottle while it's in your hand actually changes the pressure knob to use less of the content when sprayed. (Alternates between 2 and 5)
** Right-Clicking on a spray bottle gives you the option to empty it.
* Learn how to mix [[Guide_to_chemistry#Space_Cleaner|space cleaner]]. This will make refilling your space cleaner bottle easier for when the [[Chemist|chemist]] can't be bothered.
* [[Guide_to_chemistry|Chemistry]] can make [[Guide_to_chemistry#Drying_Agent|drying agent]]. If splashed on your galoshes [[File:Jshoe.png|32x32px]] with right click, they will be transformed into purple absorbent galoshes, which still prevents you from slipping while also drying floor tiles you walk on.
* [[Guide_to_xenobiology#Red_Slime|Xenobiology]] can create speed potions. Use these on your galoshes [[File:Jshoe.png|32x32px]] and/or janicart [[File:Janicart.png|32x32px]] to make them faster

|alttitles=Biomechanical Engineer, Cyberneticist, Machinist, Mechatronic Engineer, Apprentice Roboticist}}
{{Science Dept header}}
The Roboticist's job is to maintain the system's cybernetic sevitors, including borgs and various bots that they can create. When provided with resources, they can construct powerful Exosuits. They also support the crews synthetic population.

==The Lab==
Robotics is your home as a Roboticist. It contains [[Exosuit Fabricator]]s, used for the creation of any robotic component you require, a few cyborg recharging stations, a few Exosuit recharging stations, a chest with multiple sheets of [[metal]], [[power cells|Power Cell]], and a [[coil of wire]], and scattered tables with a [[multitool]], tool boxes, a few [[Flash|Flashes]], a [[crowbar]], a [[Proximity Sensor|proximity sensor]], more scattered power cells, and a [[cell charger]].

==Your Job==
'''Building Cyborgs:'''

First on the agenda is to fulfill any early requests to turn people into Cyborgs. <s>Steal metal from other departments for the</s> Verify the [[Exosuit Fabricator]]s has metal and get them churning out some cyborg bits. Once built you can either use a [[Positronic Brain]] or [[MMI]] by taking out their brains via [[surgery]], and put the brains in MMIs. Then, stuff the brainless corpses <s>down disposals</s> in the Morgue. Finally, insert the MMIs into the cyborg shells. You now have cyborgs!

'''Repairing Cyborgs, Synthetics, and Mechs:'''

The robotic based crew and equipment will need repairs over the course of the shift.

'''Preform Upgrades <s>and Empowering Your Mechanical Overlords</s>:'''

R&D will research various upgrades and implants that the crew will ask to be installed. Some of these will be implants requested by the <s>stupid meat sacks</s> biological crew members. Brush up on your [[surgery]] procedures before doing this, or send them to medical.

'''Build MOD Suits:'''

Eventually [[MODsuits|MODSuits]] components will be become available to build and upgrade. Various departments will <s>bitch at you</s> request for some to be built.

==Life on the Assembly Line==
Try to keep at least 1 complete cyborg body on standby for the inevitable train of corpses that will be coming through your door. In the downtime, feel free to devote your precious metal and time to building [[Guide to robotics#Bots|robots]] or [[Guide to robotics#Exosuits|exosuits]]. If Mining all died off or R&D is uncooperative, keep busy by stealing a bucket from Hydroponics (Or the Cargo Autolathe) and creating Cleanbots, or using up all your Medkits for more Medibots.

Sync your Exosuit Fabricators for extra miscellaneous parts and cyborg upgrades, and get building. Mining should obtain the metals you need. You will have a love-hate relationship with the R&D lab and its residents; on the one hand they are required for you to obtain mech circuits and equipment, but on the other they are taking all that wonderful silver from you that could be going to making a [[Guide_to_robotics#Durand|Durand]]. Once you do get enough ores though, it's smooth sailing. Make exosuits, give them to people with little-to-no authorization, and watch the ensuing chaos from your comfy chair.

==Other tips==

# Keep your metal organized, and understand how much each machine will take (and you will always need more metal).
# Glass is important for your robotics work, as are various devices, security equipment and rare minerals. Don't waste them.
# Have a plan before you start building anything huge, like an exosuit (without obtaining the necessary circuitry, they are useless).
# Make sure to perform maintenance on cyborgs that come in; Nanotrasen usually doesn't load them with anything but the minimum required power cells. Fifth, tech storage is your friend. It has two flashes, two power cells, and insulated gloves. For bonus points, beg the CE/RD/AI to let you into secure tech storage to get a robotics/exosuit circuitboard to control what you make in case it decides to kill everyone.
# Ensure you have proper eye protection when you weld, or you'll become blind quickly.

'''Do's and Don'ts'''

'''Do:'''
*Make cyborg bodies and install MMI's in them.
*Try to borg antagonists instead of having security kill them. They fail their objectives and are no longer a danger, being restricted by their laws.
*Cut LawSync and reset cyborg laws when the AI is rogue.
*Make useful bots and leave them around the station.
*Make drone shells so players can <s>steal all your metal and glass</s> rejoin the round.
*Put beacons in all Exosuits, and DNA lock them, lest they get stolen.
*Make a Cyborg and Exosuit Control Console.
*Try to make your own boards by <s>raiding R&D</s> getting R&D to unlock the mech technologies.
*Recognize that the QM might be more inclined to get you some more metals if you don't eat up all of their points with Ripley boards.

'''Don't:'''
*Put an MMI in a cyborg shell without making sure it isn't braindead (they can speak you know).
*Blow all the cyborgs because one was emagged.
*Immediately blow all cyborgs when the AI is malfunctioning - Instead, take apart your Robotics Control console and relocate it somewhere off camera so you can lock the cyborgs and reset them to become a powerful ally against the AI.
*Try to make an exosuit you don't have materials for, nothing is more useless than a pile of Durand limbs while you beg for metal and silver.
*Go on exosuit rocket launcher rampages 'because you can'.
*Be an asshat.
*Build an exosuit for anyone who just comes by and asks for one (and won't accept a Tracking Beacon).

==Tips==
===Robots===
* Medibots are a bit more robust than people often seem to account for. They're capable of stabilising multiple people in critical condition, and have infinite basic chemicals.
**Additionally, you can make medical bots out of any of the different colors of first aid kit available on the station, and the resulting medical bot will keep that color.
**A good tweak to do to medical bots is to reduce their healing threshold. Use your PDA/ID to unlock their interface, and reduce it to 5 - they will heal people who are at 95% health or less now, which is great for topping people up. Remember to lock it after you are done.
**Remember to synchronize the Medibots with researches; that way they will be much more efficient.
**You can stop an already-deployed Medibot from running away after the nearest hurt person as you drag them towards where they're needed the most simply by temporarily turning them off, or by setting them to stationary mode.
**Medical robots all use the same chemicals as standard, so it won't stack if they inject a lot of it into you at once or if multiple medical robots inject you. The chemical will, however, linger in your body at high concentrations - a person can be brought out of crit by having multiple medical robots healing them before a fight.
**If there are [[Guide_to_races#Jelly_and_Slime_Mutants|slimefolks]] and green Medibots, <s>enjoy the show</s> put them on stationary or disable them before the slimes get more TOX damage than engineers around the SM.
**The Derelict has all the materials needed to create a medical bot. Start your search at the broken Medbay near the chapel.
*Anywhere between adding the robotic arm and the sensor module, you can write on a robot assembly with a pen to rename the resulting robot, much like cyborgs. This is useful for keeping track of medical robots, as otherwise they're all just named "Medibot".
* Small robot assemblies can be carried in your backpack. Leaving the final piece out of a robot assembly and slamming it together in your backpack at the site of an issue makes for an effective response.
===Mechs===
* Mechs are space worthy as long as you enable the air inside your cabin. This can be useful if you don't have a space suit and you need to cross dangerous breaches.
* Losing a mech to an explosion will eject you completely unharmed (probably a good idea to be in space gear though).
* Mech drills can bust open lockers to get the goodies inside.

*RIPLEYs are a Roboticist's best friend. Their drill can cut through almost anything including most items, walls, even blast doors. The diamond drill can even cut through Reinforced walls. It is also a fairly robust weapon and can gib corpses.
** It also has fairly robust armor and can resist continuous laser fire from multiple sources for several seconds.
** When it is destroyed turrets cannot target anyone standing on the same square as it (i.e. the person who was inside when it went boom)

* The Odysseus is a force to be reckoned with. It can scan any chemicals, including drinks. The Odysseus' internal generator makes infinite amounts of any chemical, and syringes fired with the syringe gun can be recovered, meaning you can fire infinite amounts of liquid to use as reagents.
** You can mix five different chemicals in any syringe (which still only holds 15u, meaning 5 chems equals 3 of each). This can be used to create an amazing healing concoction or an extremely powerful killer syringe. For instance:
*** Healing mixture: Omnizine.
*** Harming mixture: Lexorin, Unstable mutagen, Beepsky Smash.
** Clicking a box of syringes while in an Odysseus with syringe gun equipped will load every syringe from the box in the Odysseus.

===Tips for Traitoring===
* People can't tell who you are when you are inside a mech and have to go by the mechs name... which you can change at any time. Changed your mechs name to some other mech and you can walk across the station as a confirmed traitor, so long as you don't speak.
* You can load a Medibot with '''any''' chemical mixture. Insert [[Guide_to_chemistry#Skewium|skewium]] in a medibot and have it wander around injecting people? Sure!

==Being an Evil Genius==
Traitoring as a Roboticist is fun and easy, especially since you spawn with flashes, and an expectation of building very dangerous machines. Your high station access, and access to tech storage will allow you to get pretty much anywhere, considering that you can have gloves off the bat. And, of course, [[Syndicate Items#Cryptographic_Sequencer|emagging]] any of your basic creations serves to cause havoc and chaos. The toxins kit's contents poured into a single large beaker of an emagged Medibot can create a very dangerous 'helper'. Emagging the [[Cyborg|cyborgs]] equips them with a Syndicate lawset, gives them special new tools, and prevents them from being fucked with on a control console. Though remember, cyborgs slaved to a [[Guide_to_malfunction|malfunctional AI]] can not be [[Syndicate_Items#Emag|emagged]].
If you want to make a cyborg despite having no volunteers, it's never a bad idea to simple drag the body of your last murder victim back to the lab for a debraining - Rarely do people question you once the body is already being operated on.

The bars of [[soap]] are a great cleaning implement on the station. They don't leave slippery puddles behind, and they're good for getting those hard-to-reach places (like that vomit under the surgery table) that cleaning grenades can't. Your bar of Nanotrasen brand soap is limited to 300 uses.

Remember that your bottle of Space Cleaner [[File:Cleaner.png]] can clean tiles instantly as well. If you aim far enough from your position, you can clean up to five tiles in a single spray. Useful to quickly clean up your [[Traitor|evidence]].

By right-clicking on the spray bottle, you can tip the contents out of it.

You can clean bloody people by spraying them with your Space Cleaner [[File:Cleaner.png]].

Spray people with space cleaner if they are covered in blood around their head and chest (but not if they have bloody gloves). This usually makes people happy, as security officers won't hound them as much. Sometimes the station needs a hero though, all you need to do is mop the right floor, or spray water at the right time to stop the worst fiend humanity has ever known.

==Tips==
* Your [[PDA]] has a '''Custodial Locator'''. Use this to locate your janitorial cart [[File:Janitorial Cart.png]] or [[General_items#Mop|mop]] [[File:Mop.png|32x32px]]. This can also help you find your Custodial Closet, since that's where those items spawn.
* Your ID has access to the settings of [[Guide_to_robotics#Cleanbot|cleanbots]] [[File:Cleanbot.gif]]. Click a cleanbot with your ID to unlock it. You can then click the robot to alter its settings and turn it on or off.
* Instead of refilling the Light Replacer [[File:Lightreplacer0.png|32x32px]] with light tubes/bulbs, you can refill it with glass sheets [[File:Glass.png]].
* Lost your galoshes? Need more default Cleaner Grenades or buckets? Cargo can order a Janitorial Cart and Galoshes Crate and a Janitorial Supply crate, if you ask nicely.
* Clicking a spray bottle while it's in your hand actually changes the pressure knob to use less of the content when sprayed. (Alternates between 2 and 5)
** Right-Clicking on a spray bottle gives you the option to empty it.
* Learn how to mix [[Guide_to_chemistry#Space_Cleaner|space cleaner]]. This will make refilling your space cleaner bottle easier for when the [[Chemist|chemist]] can't be bothered.
* [[Guide_to_chemistry|Chemistry]] can make [[Guide_to_chemistry#Drying_Agent|drying agent]]. If splashed on your galoshes [[File:Jshoe.png|32x32px]] with right click, they will be transformed into purple absorbent galoshes, which still prevents you from slipping while also drying floor tiles you walk on.
* [[Guide_to_xenobiology#Red_Slime|Xenobiology]] can create speed potions. Use these on your galoshes [[File:Jshoe.png|32x32px]] and/or janicart [[File:Janicart.png|32x32px]] to make them faster

{{Science Dept header}}
The Roboticist's job is to maintain the system's cybernetic sevitors, including borgs and various bots that they can create. When provided with resources, they can construct powerful Exosuits. They also support the crews synthetic population.

==The Lab==
Robotics is your home as a Roboticist. It contains [[Exosuit Fabricator]]s, used for the creation of any robotic component you require, a few cyborg recharging stations, a few Exosuit recharging stations, a chest with multiple sheets of [[metal]], [[power cells|Power Cell]], and a [[coil of wire]], and scattered tables with a [[multitool]], tool boxes, a few [[Flash|Flashes]], a [[crowbar]], a [[Proximity Sensor|proximity sensor]], more scattered power cells, and a [[cell charger]].

==Your Job==
'''Building Cyborgs:'''

First on the agenda is to fulfill any early requests to turn people into Cyborgs. <s>Steal metal from other departments for the</s> Verify the [[Exosuit Fabricator]]s has metal and get them churning out some cyborg bits. Once built you can either use a [[Positronic Brain]] or [[MMI]] by taking out their brains via [[surgery]], and put the brains in MMIs. Then, stuff the brainless corpses <s>down disposals</s> in the Morgue. Finally, insert the MMIs into the cyborg shells. You now have cyborgs!

'''Repairing Cyborgs, Synthetics, and Mechs:'''

The robotic based crew and equipment will need repairs over the course of the shift.

'''Preform Upgrades <s>and Empowering Your Mechanical Overlords</s>:'''

R&D will research various upgrades and implants that the crew will ask to be installed. Some of these will be implants requested by the <s>stupid meat sacks</s> biological crew members. Brush up on your [[surgery]] procedures before doing this, or send them to medical.

'''Build MOD Suits:'''

Eventually MOS Suit components will be become available to build and upgrade. Various departments will <s>bitch at you</s> request for some to be built .

==Life on the Assembly Line==
Try to keep at least 1 complete cyborg body on standby for the inevitable train of corpses that will be coming through your door. In the downtime, feel free to devote your precious metal and time to building [[Guide to robotics#Bots|robots]] or [[Guide to robotics#Exosuits|exosuits]]. If Mining all died off or R&D is uncooperative, keep busy by stealing a bucket from Hydroponics (Or the Cargo Autolathe) and creating Cleanbots, or using up all your Medkits for more Medibots.

Sync your Exosuit Fabricators for extra miscellaneous parts and cyborg upgrades, and get building. Mining should obtain the metals you need. You will have a love-hate relationship with the R&D lab and its residents; on the one hand they are required for you to obtain mech circuits and equipment, but on the other they are taking all that wonderful silver from you that could be going to making a [[Guide_to_robotics#Durand|Durand]]. Once you do get enough ores though, it's smooth sailing. Make exosuits, give them to people with little-to-no authorization, and watch the ensuing chaos from your comfy chair.

==Other tips==

# Keep your metal organized, and understand how much each machine will take (and you will always need more metal).
# Glass is important for your robotics work, as are various devices, security equipment and rare minerals. Don't waste them.
# Have a plan before you start building anything huge, like an exosuit (without obtaining the necessary circuitry, they are useless).
# Make sure to perform maintenance on cyborgs that come in; Nanotrasen usually doesn't load them with anything but the minimum required power cells. Fifth, tech storage is your friend. It has two flashes, two power cells, and insulated gloves. For bonus points, beg the CE/RD/AI to let you into secure tech storage to get a robotics/exosuit circuitboard to control what you make in case it decides to kill everyone.
# Ensure you have proper eye protection when you weld, or you'll become blind quickly.

'''Do's and Don'ts'''

'''Do:'''
*Make cyborg bodies and install MMI's in them.
*Try to borg antagonists instead of having security kill them. They fail their objectives and are no longer a danger, being restricted by their laws.
*Cut LawSync and reset cyborg laws when the AI is rogue.
*Make useful bots and leave them around the station.
*Make drone shells so players can <s>steal all your metal and glass</s> rejoin the round.
*Put beacons in all Exosuits, and DNA lock them, lest they get stolen.
*Make a Cyborg and Exosuit Control Console.
*Try to make your own boards by <s>raiding R&D</s> getting R&D to unlock the mech technologies.
*Recognize that the QM might be more inclined to get you some more metals if you don't eat up all of their points with Ripley boards.

'''Don't:'''
*Put an MMI in a cyborg shell without making sure it isn't braindead (they can speak you know).
*Blow all the cyborgs because one was emagged.
*Immediately blow all cyborgs when the AI is malfunctioning - Instead, take apart your Robotics Control console and relocate it somewhere off camera so you can lock the cyborgs and reset them to become a powerful ally against the AI.
*Try to make an exosuit you don't have materials for, nothing is more useless than a pile of Durand limbs while you beg for metal and silver.
*Go on exosuit rocket launcher rampages 'because you can'.
*Be an asshat.
*Build an exosuit for anyone who just comes by and asks for one (and won't accept a Tracking Beacon).

==Tips==
===Robots===
* Medibots are a bit more robust than people often seem to account for. They're capable of stabilising multiple people in critical condition, and have infinite basic chemicals.
**Additionally, you can make medical bots out of any of the different colors of first aid kit available on the station, and the resulting medical bot will keep that color.
**A good tweak to do to medical bots is to reduce their healing threshold. Use your PDA/ID to unlock their interface, and reduce it to 5 - they will heal people who are at 95% health or less now, which is great for topping people up. Remember to lock it after you are done.
**Remember to synchronize the Medibots with researches; that way they will be much more efficient.
**You can stop an already-deployed Medibot from running away after the nearest hurt person as you drag them towards where they're needed the most simply by temporarily turning them off, or by setting them to stationary mode.
**Medical robots all use the same chemicals as standard, so it won't stack if they inject a lot of it into you at once or if multiple medical robots inject you. The chemical will, however, linger in your body at high concentrations - a person can be brought out of crit by having multiple medical robots healing them before a fight.
**If there are [[Guide_to_races#Jelly_and_Slime_Mutants|slimefolks]] and green Medibots, <s>enjoy the show</s> put them on stationary or disable them before the slimes get more TOX damage than engineers around the SM.
**The Derelict has all the materials needed to create a medical bot. Start your search at the broken Medbay near the chapel.
*Anywhere between adding the robotic arm and the sensor module, you can write on a robot assembly with a pen to rename the resulting robot, much like cyborgs. This is useful for keeping track of medical robots, as otherwise they're all just named "Medibot".
* Small robot assemblies can be carried in your backpack. Leaving the final piece out of a robot assembly and slamming it together in your backpack at the site of an issue makes for an effective response.
===Mechs===
* Mechs are space worthy as long as you enable the air inside your cabin. This can be useful if you don't have a space suit and you need to cross dangerous breaches.
* Losing a mech to an explosion will eject you completely unharmed (probably a good idea to be in space gear though).
* Mech drills can bust open lockers to get the goodies inside.

*RIPLEYs are a Roboticist's best friend. Their drill can cut through almost anything including most items, walls, even blast doors. The diamond drill can even cut through Reinforced walls. It is also a fairly robust weapon and can gib corpses.
** It also has fairly robust armor and can resist continuous laser fire from multiple sources for several seconds.
** When it is destroyed turrets cannot target anyone standing on the same square as it (i.e. the person who was inside when it went boom)

* The Odysseus is a force to be reckoned with. It can scan any chemicals, including drinks. The Odysseus' internal generator makes infinite amounts of any chemical, and syringes fired with the syringe gun can be recovered, meaning you can fire infinite amounts of liquid to use as reagents.
** You can mix five different chemicals in any syringe (which still only holds 15u, meaning 5 chems equals 3 of each). This can be used to create an amazing healing concoction or an extremely powerful killer syringe. For instance:
*** Healing mixture: Omnizine.
*** Harming mixture: Lexorin, Unstable mutagen, Beepsky Smash.
** Clicking a box of syringes while in an Odysseus with syringe gun equipped will load every syringe from the box in the Odysseus.

===Tips for Traitoring===
* People can't tell who you are when you are inside a mech and have to go by the mechs name... which you can change at any time. Changed your mechs name to some other mech and you can walk across the station as a confirmed traitor, so long as you don't speak.
* You can load a Medibot with '''any''' chemical mixture. Insert [[Guide_to_chemistry#Skewium|skewium]] in a medibot and have it wander around injecting people? Sure!

==Being an Evil Genius==
Traitoring as a Roboticist is fun and easy, especially since you spawn with flashes, and an expectation of building very dangerous machines. Your high station access, and access to tech storage will allow you to get pretty much anywhere, considering that you can have gloves off the bat. And, of course, [[Syndicate Items#Cryptographic_Sequencer|emagging]] any of your basic creations serves to cause havoc and chaos. The toxins kit's contents poured into a single large beaker of an emagged Medibot can create a very dangerous 'helper'. Emagging the [[Cyborg|cyborgs]] equips them with a Syndicate lawset, gives them special new tools, and prevents them from being fucked with on a control console. Though remember, cyborgs slaved to a [[Guide_to_malfunction|malfunctional AI]] can not be [[Syndicate_Items#Emag|emagged]].
If you want to make a cyborg despite having no volunteers, it's never a bad idea to simple drag the body of your last murder victim back to the lab for a debraining - Rarely do people question you once the body is already being operated on.

**Additionally, you can make medical bots out of any of the different colors of first aid kit available on the station, and the resulting medical bot will keep that color.
**A good tweak to do to medical bots is to reduce their healing threshold. Use your PDA/ID to unlock their interface, and reduce it to 5 - they will heal people who are at 95% health or less now, which is great for topping people up. Remember to lock it after you are done.
**Remember to synchronize the Medibots with researches; that way they will be much more efficient.
**You can stop an already-deployed Medibot from running away after the nearest hurt person as you drag them towards where they're needed the most simply by temporarily turning them off, or by setting them to stationary mode.
**Medical robots all use the same chemicals as standard, so it won't stack if they inject a lot of it into you at once or if multiple medical robots inject you. The chemical will, however, linger in your body at high concentrations - a person can be brought out of crit by having multiple medical robots healing them before a fight.
**If there are [[Guide_to_races#Jelly_and_Slime_Mutants|slimefolks]] and green Medibots, <s>enjoy the show</s> put them on stationary or disable them before the slimes get more TOX damage than engineers around the SM.
**The Derelict has all the materials needed to create a medical bot. Start your search at the broken Medbay near the chapel.
*Anywhere between adding the robotic arm and the sensor module, you can write on a robot assembly with a pen to rename the resulting robot, much like cyborgs. This is useful for keeping track of medical robots, as otherwise they're all just named "Medibot".
* Small robot assemblies can be carried in your backpack. Leaving the final piece out of a robot assembly and slamming it together in your backpack at the site of an issue makes for an effective response.
===Mechs===
* Mechs are space worthy as long as you enable the air inside your cabin. This can be useful if you don't have a space suit and you need to cross dangerous breaches.
* Losing a mech to an explosion will eject you completely unharmed (probably a good idea to be in space gear though).
* Mech drills can bust open lockers to get the goodies inside.

*RIPLEYs are a Roboticist's best friend. Their drill can cut through almost anything including most items, walls, even blast doors. The diamond drill can even cut through Reinforced walls. It is also a fairly robust weapon and can gib corpses.
** It also has fairly robust armor and can resist continuous laser fire from multiple sources for several seconds.
** When it is destroyed turrets cannot target anyone standing on the same square as it (i.e. the person who was inside when it went boom)

* The Odysseus is a force to be reckoned with. It can scan any chemicals, including drinks. The Odysseus' internal generator makes infinite amounts of any chemical, and syringes fired with the syringe gun can be recovered, meaning you can fire infinite amounts of liquid to use as reagents.
** You can mix five different chemicals in any syringe (which still only holds 15u, meaning 5 chems equals 3 of each). This can be used to create an amazing healing concoction or an extremely powerful killer syringe. For instance:
*** Healing mixture: Omnizine.
*** Harming mixture: Lexorin, Unstable mutagen, Beepsky Smash.
** Clicking a box of syringes while in an Odysseus with syringe gun equipped will load every syringe from the box in the Odysseus.

===Tips for Traitoring===
* People can't tell who you are when you are inside a mech and have to go by the mechs name... which you can change at any time. Changed your mechs name to some other mech and you can walk across the station as a confirmed traitor, so long as you don't speak.
* You can load a Medibot with '''any''' chemical mixture. Insert [[Guide_to_chemistry#Skewium|skewium]] in a medibot and have it wander around injecting people? Sure!

==Being an Evil Genius==
Traitoring as a Roboticist is fun and easy, especially since you spawn with flashes, and an expectation of building very dangerous machines. Your high station access, and access to tech storage will allow you to get pretty much anywhere, considering that you can have gloves off the bat. And, of course, [[Syndicate Items#Cryptographic_Sequencer|emagging]] any of your basic creations serves to cause havoc and chaos. The toxins kit's contents poured into a single large beaker of an emagged Medibot can create a very dangerous 'helper'. Emagging the [[Cyborg|cyborgs]] equips them with a Syndicate lawset, gives them special new tools, and prevents them from being fucked with on a control console. Though remember, cyborgs slaved to a [[Guide_to_malfunction|malfunctional AI]] can not be [[Syndicate_Items#Emag|emagged]].
If you want to make a cyborg despite having no volunteers, it's never a bad idea to simple drag the body of your last murder victim back to the lab for a debraining - Rarely do people question you once the body is already being operated on.

Most important, you have your purple soft cap to signify <s>your duty to the station</s> who to lynch when the [[Clown]] is wetting floors.

===Wet Floor Signs===
Drop warning signs where you mop. People get pissed when you don't. You don't have enough to cover every area you clean and between lag and every player running everywhere they're usually not spotted until people are already on their backs, but they can't blame you for doing what you can!

Shaking up those you slipped maintains favour with the crew. Do this by clicking on them with an empty hand. Smugly pointing at one of your signs incurs their ire.

Also, if people are chasing you, throw a bucket of water behind you, or where they will run into it, as they likely want to steal from you (your shoes are valuable). Or fill your spray bottle with a little water to quickly take down huge amounts of people.

People assume if someone slips, it was your doing. This may not be true. Often it was the [[chemist]] with [[Guide_to_chemistry#Space_Lube|space lube]], or a [[clown]] with a bucket of water. It's possible to differentiate between slipping on a wet floor and slipping on a lubed floor.

Make sure the [[detective]] has cleared a scene before you clean up an area of some blood. Follow people dragging bodies to the medical bay; they leave long trails of blood which means more work for you.

People are going to accidentally charge your cart halfway down the hallway. Kind people will get on the other side of it and push it back to you. There's no avoiding this, apart from not using the cart and relying on the space cleaner [[File:Cleaner.png]], or using the mop with buckets of water held on your person. This would require you to carry signs too.

A janitor [[cyborg]] is usually a more efficient janitor than you. It can clean floors by just moving onto them. But so can you once you get your [[Research_items#Floor_Buffer_Upgrade|floor buffer upgrade]].

==Cleaning Without Being Lynched==
Your janitorial cart can hold up to 100 units of liquid. This does not need to be straight water. If you're able to get [[Chemistry]] to give you 50 units of ammonia, you can mix it with 50 units of water. Congratulations! You just created 100 units of [[Guide to chemistry#Space Cleaner|Space Cleaner]]. Mopping the floor with [[Guide_to_chemistry#Space_Cleaner|Space Cleaner]] does not leave it slippery. People might still assume that if you're mopping without the signs that you're creating a safety hazard, so make sure to correct them BEFORE they choke you to death.

The bars of [[soap]] are a great cleaning implement on the station. They don't leave slippery puddles behind, and they're good for getting those hard-to-reach places (like that vomit under the surgery table) that cleaning grenades can't. Your bar of Nanotrasen brand soap is limited to 300 uses.

Remember that your bottle of Space Cleaner [[File:Cleaner.png]] can clean tiles instantly as well. If you aim far enough from your position, you can clean up to five tiles in a single spray. Useful to quickly clean up your [[Traitor|evidence]].

By right-clicking on the spray bottle, you can tip the contents out of it.

You can clean bloody people by spraying them with your Space Cleaner [[File:Cleaner.png]].

Spray people with space cleaner if they are covered in blood around their head and chest (but not if they have bloody gloves). This usually makes people happy, as security officers won't hound them as much. Sometimes the station needs a hero though, all you need to do is mop the right floor, or spray water at the right time to stop the worst fiend humanity has ever known.

==Tips==
* Your [[PDA]] has a '''Custodial Locator'''. Use this to locate your janitorial cart [[File:Janitorial Cart.png]] or [[General_items#Mop|mop]] [[File:Mop.png|32x32px]]. This can also help you find your Custodial Closet, since that's where those items spawn.
* Your ID has access to the settings of [[Guide_to_robotics#Cleanbot|cleanbots]] [[File:Cleanbot.gif]]. Click a cleanbot with your ID to unlock it. You can then click the robot to alter its settings and turn it on or off.
* Instead of refilling the Light Replacer [[File:Lightreplacer0.png|32x32px]] with light tubes/bulbs, you can refill it with glass sheets [[File:Glass.png]].
* Lost your galoshes? Need more default Cleaner Grenades or buckets? Cargo can order a Janitorial Cart and Galoshes Crate and a Janitorial Supply crate, if you ask nicely.
* Clicking a spray bottle while it's in your hand actually changes the pressure knob to use less of the content when sprayed. (Alternates between 2 and 5)
** Right-Clicking on a spray bottle gives you the option to empty it.
* Learn how to mix [[Guide_to_chemistry#Space_Cleaner|space cleaner]]. This will make refilling your space cleaner bottle easier for when the [[Chemist|chemist]] can't be bothered.
* [[Guide_to_chemistry|Chemistry]] can make [[Guide_to_chemistry#Drying_Agent|drying agent]]. If splashed on your galoshes [[File:Jshoe.png|32x32px]] with right click, they will be transformed into purple absorbent galoshes, which still prevents you from slipping while also drying floor tiles you walk on.
* [[Guide_to_xenobiology#Red_Slime|Xenobiology]] can create speed potions. Use these on your galoshes [[File:Jshoe.png|32x32px]] and/or janicart [[File:Janicart.png|32x32px]] to make them faster

* Your ID has access to the settings of [[Guide_to_robotics#Cleanbot|cleanbots]] [[File:Cleanbot.gif]]. Click a cleanbot with your ID to unlock it. You can then click the robot to alter its settings and turn it on or off.
* Instead of refilling the Light Replacer [[File:Lightreplacer0.png|32x32px]] with light tubes/bulbs, you can refill it with glass sheets [[File:Glass.png]].
* Lost your galoshes? Need more default Cleaner Grenades or buckets? Cargo can order a Janitorial Cart and Galoshes Crate and a Janitorial Supply crate, if you ask nicely.
* Clicking a spray bottle while it's in your hand actually changes the pressure knob to use less of the content when sprayed. (Alternates between 2 and 5)
** Right-Clicking on a spray bottle gives you the option to empty it.
* Learn how to mix [[Guide_to_chemistry#Space_Cleaner|space cleaner]]. This will make refilling your space cleaner bottle easier for when the [[Chemist|chemist]] can't be bothered.
* [[Guide_to_chemistry|Chemistry]] can make [[Guide_to_chemistry#Drying_Agent|drying agent]]. If splashed on your galoshes [[File:Jshoe.png|32x32px]] with right click, they will be transformed into purple absorbent galoshes, which still prevents you from slipping while also drying floor tiles you walk on.
* [[Guide_to_xenobiology#Red_Slime|Xenobiology]] can create speed potions. Use these on your galoshes [[File:Jshoe.png|32x32px]] and/or janicart [[File:Janicart.png|32x32px]] to make them faster

Most important, you have your purple soft cap to signify <s>your duty to the station</s> who to lynch when the [[Clown]] is wetting floors.

===Wet Floor Signs===
Drop warning signs where you mop. People get pissed when you don't. You don't have enough to cover every area you clean and between lag and every player running everywhere they're usually not spotted until people are already on their backs, but they can't blame you for doing what you can!

Shaking up those you slipped maintains favour with the crew. Do this by clicking on them with an empty hand. Smugly pointing at one of your signs incurs their ire.

Also, if people are chasing you, throw a bucket of water behind you, or where they will run into it, as they likely want to steal from you (your shoes are valuable). Or fill your spray bottle with a little water to quickly take down huge amounts of people.

People assume if someone slips, it was your doing. This may not be true. Often it was the [[chemist]] with [[Guide_to_chemistry#Space_Lube|space lube]], or a [[clown]] with a bucket of water. It's possible to differentiate between slipping on a wet floor and slipping on a lubed floor.

Make sure the [[detective]] has cleared a scene before you clean up an area of some blood. Follow people dragging bodies to the medical bay; they leave long trails of blood which means more work for you.

People are going to accidentally charge your cart halfway down the hallway. Kind people will get on the other side of it and push it back to you. There's no avoiding this, apart from not using the cart and relying on the space cleaner [[File:Cleaner.png]], or using the mop with buckets of water held on your person. This would require you to carry signs too.

A janitor [[cyborg]] is usually a more efficient janitor than you. It can clean floors by just moving onto them. But so can you once you get your [[Research_items#Floor_Buffer_Upgrade|floor buffer upgrade]].

==Cleaning Without Being Lynched==
Your janitorial cart can hold up to 100 units of liquid. This does not need to be straight water. If you're able to get [[Chemistry]] to give you 50 units of ammonia, you can mix it with 50 units of water. Congratulations! You just created 100 units of [[Guide to chemistry#Space Cleaner|Space Cleaner]]. Mopping the floor with [[Guide_to_chemistry#Space_Cleaner|Space Cleaner]] does not leave it slippery. People might still assume that if you're mopping without the signs that you're creating a safety hazard, so make sure to correct them BEFORE they choke you to death.

The bars of [[soap]] are a great cleaning implement on the station. They don't leave slippery puddles behind, and they're good for getting those hard-to-reach places (like that vomit under the surgery table) that cleaning grenades can't. Your bar of Nanotrasen brand soap is limited to 300 uses.

Remember that your bottle of Space Cleaner [[File:Cleaner.png]] can clean tiles instantly as well. If you aim far enough from your position, you can clean up to five tiles in a single spray. Useful to quickly clean up your [[Traitor|evidence]].

By right-clicking on the spray bottle, you can tip the contents out of it.

You can clean bloody people by spraying them with your Space Cleaner [[File:Cleaner.png]].

Spray people with space cleaner if they are covered in blood around their head and chest (but not if they have bloody gloves). This usually makes people happy, as security officers won't hound them as much. Sometimes the station needs a hero though, all you need to do is mop the right floor, or spray water at the right time to stop the worst fiend humanity has ever known.

==Tips==
* Your [[PDA]] has a '''Custodial Locator'''. Use this to locate your janitorial cart [[File:Janitorial Cart.png]] or [[General_items#Mop|mop]] [[File:Mop.png|32x32px]]. This can also help you find your Custodial Closet, since that's where those items spawn.

Most important, you have your purple soft cap to signify <s>your duty to the station</s> who to lynch when the [[Clown]] is wetting floors.

===Wet Floor Signs===
Drop warning signs where you mop. People get pissed when you don't. You don't have enough to cover every area you clean and between lag and every player running everywhere they're usually not spotted until people are already on their backs, but they can't blame you for doing what you can!

Shaking up those you slipped maintains favour with the crew. Do this by clicking on them with an empty hand. Smugly pointing at one of your signs incurs their ire.

Also, if people are chasing you, throw a bucket of water behind you, or where they will run into it, as they likely want to steal from you (your shoes are valuable). Or fill your spray bottle with a little water to quickly take down huge amounts of people.

People assume if someone slips, it was your doing. This may not be true. Often it was the [[chemist]] with [[Guide_to_chemistry#Space_Lube|space lube]], or a [[clown]] with a bucket of water. It's possible to differentiate between slipping on a wet floor and slipping on a lubed floor.

Make sure the [[detective]] has cleared a scene before you clean up an area of some blood. Follow people dragging bodies to the medical bay; they leave long trails of blood which means more work for you.

People are going to accidentally charge your cart halfway down the hallway. Kind people will get on the other side of it and push it back to you. There's no avoiding this, apart from not using the cart and relying on the space cleaner [[File:Cleaner.png]], or using the mop with buckets of water held on your person. This would require you to carry signs too.

A janitor [[cyborg]] is usually a more efficient janitor than you. It can clean floors by just moving onto them. But so can you once you get your [[Research_items#Floor_Buffer_Upgrade|floor buffer upgrade]].

==Cleaning Without Being Lynched==
Your janitorial cart can hold up to 100 units of liquid. This does not need to be straight water. If you're able to get [[Chemistry]] to give you 50 units of ammonia, you can mix it with 50 units of water. Congratulations! You just created 100 units of [[Guide to chemistry#Space Cleaner|Space Cleaner]]. Mopping the floor with [[Guide_to_chemistry#Space_Cleaner|Space Cleaner]] does not leave it slippery. People might still assume that if you're mopping without the signs that you're creating a safety hazard, so make sure to correct them BEFORE they choke you to death.

The bars of [[soap]] are a great cleaning implement on the station. They don't leave slippery puddles behind, and they're good for getting those hard-to-reach places (like that vomit under the surgery table) that cleaning grenades can't. Your bar of Nanotrasen brand soap is limited to 300 uses.

Remember that your bottle of Space Cleaner [[File:Cleaner.png]] can clean tiles instantly as well. If you aim far enough from your position, you can clean up to five tiles in a single spray. Useful to quickly clean up your [[Traitor|evidence]].

By right-clicking on the spray bottle, you can tip the contents out of it.

You can clean bloody people by spraying them with your Space Cleaner [[File:Cleaner.png]].

Spray people with space cleaner if they are covered in blood around their head and chest (but not if they have bloody gloves). This usually makes people happy, as security officers won't hound them as much. Sometimes the station needs a hero though, all you need to do is mop the right floor, or spray water at the right time to stop the worst fiend humanity has ever known.

==Tips==
* Your [[PDA]] has a '''Custodial Locator'''. Use this to locate your janitorial cart [[File:Janitorial Cart.png]] or [[General_items#Mop|mop]] [[File:Mop.png|32x32px]]. This can also help you find your Custodial Closet, since that's where those items spawn.
* Your ID has access to the settings of [[Guide_to_robotics#Cleanbot|cleanbots]] [[File:Cleanbot.gif]]. Click a cleanbot with your ID to unlock it. You can then click the robot to alter its settings and turn it on or off.
* Instead of refilling the Light Replacer [[File:Lightreplacer0.png|32x32px]] with light tubes/bulbs, you can refill it with glass sheets [[File:Glass.png]].
* Lost your galoshes? Need more default Cleaner Grenades or buckets? Cargo can order a Janitorial Cart and Galoshes Crate and a Janitorial Supply crate, if you ask nicely.
* Clicking a spray bottle while it's in your hand actually changes the pressure knob to use less of the content when sprayed. (Alternates between 2 and 5)
** Right-Clicking on a spray bottle gives you the option to empty it.
* Learn how to mix [[Guide_to_chemistry#Space_Cleaner|space cleaner]]. This will make refilling your space cleaner bottle easier for when the [[Chemist|chemist]] can't be bothered.
* [[Guide_to_chemistry|Chemistry]] can make [[Guide_to_chemistry#Drying_Agent|drying agent]]. If splashed on your galoshes [[File:Jshoe.png|32x32px]] with right click, they will be transformed into purple absorbent galoshes, which still prevents you from slipping while also drying floor tiles you walk on.
* [[Guide_to_xenobiology#Red_Slime|Xenobiology]] can create speed potions. Use these on your galoshes [[File:Jshoe.png|32x32px]] and/or janicart [[File:Janicart.png|32x32px]] to make them faster

Most important, you have your purple soft cap to signify <s>your duty to the station</s> who to lynch when the [[Clown]] is wetting floors.

===Wet Floor Signs===
Drop warning signs where you mop. People get pissed when you don't. You don't have enough to cover every area you clean and between lag and every player running everywhere they're usually not spotted until people are already on their backs, but they can't blame you for doing what you can!

Shaking up those you slipped maintains favour with the crew. Do this by clicking on them with an empty hand. Smugly pointing at one of your signs incurs their ire.

Also, if people are chasing you, throw a bucket of water behind you, or where they will run into it, as they likely want to steal from you (your shoes are valuable). Or fill your spray bottle with a little water to quickly take down huge amounts of people.

People assume if someone slips, it was your doing. This may not be true. Often it was the [[chemist]] with [[Guide_to_chemistry#Space_Lube|space lube]], or a [[clown]] with a bucket of water. It's possible to differentiate between slipping on a wet floor and slipping on a lubed floor.

Make sure the [[detective]] has cleared a scene before you clean up an area of some blood. Follow people dragging bodies to the medical bay; they leave long trails of blood which means more work for you.

People are going to accidentally charge your cart halfway down the hallway. Kind people will get on the other side of it and push it back to you. There's no avoiding this, apart from not using the cart and relying on the space cleaner [[File:Cleaner.png]], or using the mop with buckets of water held on your person. This would require you to carry signs too.

A janitor [[cyborg]] is usually a more efficient janitor than you. It can clean floors by just moving onto them. But so can you once you get your [[Research_items#Floor_Buffer_Upgrade|floor buffer upgrade]].

==Cleaning Without Being Lynched==
Your janitorial cart can hold up to 100 units of liquid. This does not need to be straight water. If you're able to get [[Chemistry]] to give you 50 units of ammonia, you can mix it with 50 units of water. Congratulations! You just created 100 units of [[Guide to chemistry#Space Cleaner|Space Cleaner]]. Mopping the floor with [[Guide_to_chemistry#Space_Cleaner|Space Cleaner]] does not leave it slippery. People might still assume that if you're mopping without the signs that you're creating a safety hazard, so make sure to correct them BEFORE they choke you to death.

The bars of [[soap]] are a great cleaning implement on the station. They don't leave slippery puddles behind, and they're good for getting those hard-to-reach places (like that vomit under the surgery table) that cleaning grenades can't. Your bar of Nanotrasen brand soap is limited to 300 uses.

Remember that your bottle of Space Cleaner [[File:Cleaner.png]] can clean tiles instantly as well. If you aim far enough from your position, you can clean up to five tiles in a single spray. Useful to quickly clean up your [[Traitor|evidence]].

By right-clicking on the spray bottle, you can tip the contents out of it.

You can clean bloody people by spraying them with your Space Cleaner [[File:Cleaner.png]].

Spray people with space cleaner if they are covered in blood around their head and chest (but not if they have bloody gloves). This usually makes people happy, as security officers won't hound them as much. Sometimes the station needs a hero though, all you need to do is mop the right floor, or spray water at the right time to stop the worst fiend humanity has ever known.

==Tips==
* Your [[PDA]] has a '''Custodial Locator'''. Use this to locate your janitorial cart [[File:Janitorial Cart.png]] or [[General_items#Mop|mop]] [[File:Mop.png|32x32px]]. This can also help you find your Custodial Closet, since that's where those items spawn.
* Your ID has access to the settings of [[Guide_to_robotics#Cleanbot|cleanbots]] [[File:Cleanbot.gif]]. Click a cleanbot with your ID to unlock it. You can then click the robot to alter its settings and turn it on or off.
* Instead of refilling the Light Replacer [[File:Lightreplacer0.png|32x32px]] with light tubes/bulbs, you can refill it with glass sheets [[File:Glass.png]].
* Lost your galoshes? Need more default Cleaner Grenades or buckets? Cargo can order a Janitorial Cart and Galoshes Crate and a Janitorial Supply crate, if you ask nicely.
* Clicking a spray bottle while it's in your hand actually changes the pressure knob to use less of the content when sprayed. (Alternates between 2 and 5)
** Right-Clicking on a spray bottle gives you the option to empty it.
* Learn how to mix [[Guide_to_chemistry#Space_Cleaner|space cleaner]]. This will make refilling your space cleaner bottle easier for when the [[Chemist|chemist]] can't be bothered.
* [[Guide_to_chemistry|Chemistry]] can make [[Guide_to_chemistry#Drying_Agent|drying agent]]. If splashed on your galoshes [[File:Jshoe.png|32x32px]] with right click, they will be transformed into purple absorbent galoshes, which still prevents you from slipping while also drying floor tiles you walk on.
* [[Guide_to_xenobiology#Red_Slime|Xenobiology]] can create speed potions. Use these on your galoshes [[File:Jshoe.png|32x32px]] and/or janicart [[File:Janicart.png|32x32px]] to make them faster

==Stellar Patrol, it's not a job, it's an adventure!==
You have the most <s>important</s> time consuming, under appreciated and eventually pointless job on the station. You keep small areas from looking shitty while the areas you've already cleaned are covered with blood and litter again. You'll clean floors, toss out junk, replace broken lights and overall, keep the station resembling a workplace and not an anarchist playground!

Most important, you have your purple soft cap to signify <s>your duty to the station</s> who to lynch when the [[Clown]] is wetting floors.

===Wet Floor Signs===
Drop warning signs where you mop. People get pissed when you don't. You don't have enough to cover every area you clean and between lag and every player running everywhere they're usually not spotted until people are already on their backs, but they can't blame you for doing what you can!

Shaking up those you slipped maintains favour with the crew. Do this by clicking on them with an empty hand. Smugly pointing at one of your signs incurs their ire.

Also, if people are chasing you, throw a bucket of water behind you, or where they will run into it, as they likely want to steal from you (your shoes are valuable). Or fill your spray bottle with a little water to quickly take down huge amounts of people.

People assume if someone slips, it was your doing. This may not be true. Often it was the [[chemist]] with [[Guide_to_chemistry#Space_Lube|space lube]], or a [[clown]] with a bucket of water. It's possible to differentiate between slipping on a wet floor and slipping on a lubed floor.

Make sure the [[detective]] has cleared a scene before you clean up an area of some blood. Follow people dragging bodies to the medical bay; they leave long trails of blood which means more work for you.

People are going to accidentally charge your cart halfway down the hallway. Kind people will get on the other side of it and push it back to you. There's no avoiding this, apart from not using the cart and relying on the space cleaner [[File:Cleaner.png]], or using the mop with buckets of water held on your person. This would require you to carry signs too.

A janitor [[cyborg]] is usually a more efficient janitor than you. It can clean floors by just moving onto them. But so can you once you get your [[Research_items#Floor_Buffer_Upgrade|floor buffer upgrade]].

==Cleaning Without Being Lynched==
Your janitorial cart can hold up to 100 units of liquid. This does not need to be straight water. If you're able to get [[Chemistry]] to give you 50 units of ammonia, you can mix it with 50 units of water. Congratulations! You just created 100 units of [[Guide to chemistry#Space Cleaner|Space Cleaner]]. Mopping the floor with [[Guide_to_chemistry#Space_Cleaner|Space Cleaner]] does not leave it slippery. People might still assume that if you're mopping without the signs that you're creating a safety hazard, so make sure to correct them BEFORE they choke you to death.

The bars of [[soap]] are a great cleaning implement on the station. They don't leave slippery puddles behind, and they're good for getting those hard-to-reach places (like that vomit under the surgery table) that cleaning grenades can't. Your bar of Nanotrasen brand soap is limited to 300 uses.

Remember that your bottle of Space Cleaner [[File:Cleaner.png]] can clean tiles instantly as well. If you aim far enough from your position, you can clean up to five tiles in a single spray. Useful to quickly clean up your [[Traitor|evidence]].

By right-clicking on the spray bottle, you can tip the contents out of it.

You can clean bloody people by spraying them with your Space Cleaner [[File:Cleaner.png]].

Spray people with space cleaner if they are covered in blood around their head and chest (but not if they have bloody gloves). This usually makes people happy, as security officers won't hound them as much. Sometimes the station needs a hero though, all you need to do is mop the right floor, or spray water at the right time to stop the worst fiend humanity has ever known.

==Tips==
* Your [[PDA]] has a '''Custodial Locator'''. Use this to locate your janitorial cart [[File:Janitorial Cart.png]] or [[General_items#Mop|mop]] [[File:Mop.png|32x32px]]. This can also help you find your Custodial Closet, since that's where those items spawn.
* Your ID has access to the settings of [[Guide_to_robotics#Cleanbot|cleanbots]] [[File:Cleanbot.gif]]. Click a cleanbot with your ID to unlock it. You can then click the robot to alter its settings and turn it on or off.
* Instead of refilling the Light Replacer [[File:Lightreplacer0.png|32x32px]] with light tubes/bulbs, you can refill it with glass sheets [[File:Glass.png]].
* Lost your galoshes? Need more default Cleaner Grenades or buckets? Cargo can order a Janitorial Cart and Galoshes Crate and a Janitorial Supply crate, if you ask nicely.
* Clicking a spray bottle while it's in your hand actually changes the pressure knob to use less of the content when sprayed. (Alternates between 2 and 5)
** Right-Clicking on a spray bottle gives you the option to empty it.
* Learn how to mix [[Guide_to_chemistry#Space_Cleaner|space cleaner]]. This will make refilling your space cleaner bottle easier for when the [[Chemist|chemist]] can't be bothered.
* [[Guide_to_chemistry|Chemistry]] can make [[Guide_to_chemistry#Drying_Agent|drying agent]]. If splashed on your galoshes [[File:Jshoe.png|32x32px]] with right click, they will be transformed into purple absorbent galoshes, which still prevents you from slipping while also drying floor tiles you walk on.
* [[Guide_to_xenobiology#Red_Slime|Xenobiology]] can create speed potions. Use these on your galoshes [[File:Jshoe.png|32x32px]] and/or janicart [[File:Janicart.png|32x32px]] to make them faster

You have the most <s>important</s> time consuming, under appreciated and eventually pointless job on the station. You keep small areas from looking shitty while the areas you've already cleaned are covered with blood and litter again. You'll clean floors, toss out junk, replace broken lights and overall, keep the station resembling a workplace and not an anarchist playground!

By right-clicking on the spray bottle, you can tip the contents out of it.

You can clean bloody people by spraying them with your Space Cleaner [[File:Cleaner.png]].

Spray people with space cleaner if they are covered in blood around their head and chest (but not if they have bloody gloves). This usually makes people happy, as security officers won't hound them as much. Sometimes the station needs a hero though, all you need to do is mop the right floor, or spray water at the right time to stop the worst fiend humanity has ever known.

==Tips==
* Your [[PDA]] has a '''Custodial Locator'''. Use this to locate your janitorial cart [[File:Janitorial Cart.png]] or [[General_items#Mop|mop]] [[File:Mop.png|32x32px]]. This can also help you find your Custodial Closet, since that's where those items spawn.
* Your ID has access to the settings of [[Guide_to_robotics#Cleanbot|cleanbots]] [[File:Cleanbot.gif]]. Click a cleanbot with your ID to unlock it. You can then click the robot to alter its settings and turn it on or off.
* Instead of refilling the Light Replacer [[File:Lightreplacer0.png|32x32px]] with light tubes/bulbs, you can refill it with glass sheets [[File:Glass.png]].
* Lost your galoshes? Need more default Cleaner Grenades or buckets? Cargo can order a Janitorial Cart and Galoshes Crate and a Janitorial Supply crate, if you ask nicely.
* Clicking a spray bottle while it's in your hand actually changes the pressure knob to use less of the content when sprayed. (Alternates between 2 and 5)
** Right-Clicking on a spray bottle gives you the option to empty it.
* Learn how to mix [[Guide_to_chemistry#Space_Cleaner|space cleaner]]. This will make refilling your space cleaner bottle easier for when the [[Chemist|chemist]] can't be bothered.
* [[Guide_to_chemistry|Chemistry]] can make [[Guide_to_chemistry#Drying_Agent|drying agent]]. If splashed on your galoshes [[File:Jshoe.png|32x32px]] with right click, they will be transformed into purple absorbent galoshes, which still prevents you from slipping while also drying floor tiles you walk on.
* [[Guide_to_xenobiology#Red_Slime|Xenobiology]] can create speed potions. Use these on your galoshes [[File:Jshoe.png|32x32px]] and/or janicart [[File:Janicart.png|32x32px]] to make them faster

Most important, you have your purple soft cap to signify <s>your duty to the station</s> who to lynch when the [[Clown]] is wetting floors.

===Wet Floor Signs===
Drop warning signs where you mop. People get pissed when you don't. You don't have enough to cover every area you clean and between lag and every player running everywhere they're usually not spotted until people are already on their backs, but they can't blame you for doing what you can!

Shaking up those you slipped maintains favour with the crew. Do this by clicking on them with an empty hand. Smugly pointing at one of your signs incurs their ire.

Also, if people are chasing you, throw a bucket of water behind you, or where they will run into it, as they likely want to steal from you (your shoes are valuable). Or fill your spray bottle with a little water to quickly take down huge amounts of people.

People assume if someone slips, it was your doing. This may not be true. Often it was the [[chemist]] with [[Guide_to_chemistry#Space_Lube|space lube]], or a [[clown]] with a bucket of water. It's possible to differentiate between slipping on a wet floor and slipping on a lubed floor.

Make sure the [[detective]] has cleared a scene before you clean up an area of some blood. Follow people dragging bodies to the medical bay; they leave long trails of blood which means more work for you.

People are going to accidentally charge your cart halfway down the hallway. Kind people will get on the other side of it and push it back to you. There's no avoiding this, apart from not using the cart and relying on the space cleaner [[File:Cleaner.png]], or using the mop with buckets of water held on your person. This would require you to carry signs too.

A janitor [[cyborg]] is usually a more efficient janitor than you. It can clean floors by just moving onto them. But so can you once you get your [[Research_items#Floor_Buffer_Upgrade|floor buffer upgrade]].

==Cleaning Without Being Lynched==
Your janitorial cart can hold up to 100 units of liquid. This does not need to be straight water. If you're able to get [[Chemistry]] to give you 50 units of ammonia, you can mix it with 50 units of water. Congratulations! You just created 100 units of [[Guide to chemistry#Space Cleaner|Space Cleaner]]. Mopping the floor with [[Guide_to_chemistry#Space_Cleaner|Space Cleaner]] does not leave it slippery. People might still assume that if you're mopping without the signs that you're creating a safety hazard, so make sure to correct them BEFORE they choke you to death.

The bars of [[soap]] are a great cleaning implement on the station. They don't leave slippery puddles behind, and they're good for getting those hard-to-reach places (like that vomit under the surgery table) that cleaning grenades can't. Your bar of Nanotrasen brand soap is limited to 300 uses.

Your job is to mop up blood, oil, dust and vomit, replace broken or missing light bulbs and tubes, and pick up litter. It's more fun than it sounds!

You have the most <s>important</s> time consuming, under appreciated and eventually pointless job on the station. You keep small areas from looking shitty while the areas you've already cleaned are covered with blood and litter again. You'll clean floors, toss out junk, replace broken lights and overall, keep the station resembling a workplace and not an anarchist playground!

Most important, you have your purple soft cap to signify <s>your duty to the station</s> who to lynch when the [[Clown]] is wetting floors.

===Wet Floor Signs===
Drop warning signs where you mop. People get pissed when you don't. You don't have enough to cover every area you clean and between lag and every player running everywhere they're usually not spotted until people are already on their backs, but they can't blame you for doing what you can!

Shaking up those you slipped maintains favour with the crew. Do this by clicking on them with an empty hand. Smugly pointing at one of your signs incurs their ire.

Also, if people are chasing you, throw a bucket of water behind you, or where they will run into it, as they likely want to steal from you (your shoes are valuable). Or fill your spray bottle with a little water to quickly take down huge amounts of people.

People assume if someone slips, it was your doing. This may not be true. Often it was the [[chemist]] with [[Guide_to_chemistry#Space_Lube|space lube]], or a [[clown]] with a bucket of water. It's possible to differentiate between slipping on a wet floor and slipping on a lubed floor.

Make sure the [[detective]] has cleared a scene before you clean up an area of some blood. Follow people dragging bodies to the medical bay; they leave long trails of blood which means more work for you.

People are going to accidentally charge your cart halfway down the hallway. Kind people will get on the other side of it and push it back to you. There's no avoiding this, apart from not using the cart and relying on the space cleaner [[File:Cleaner.png]], or using the mop with buckets of water held on your person. This would require you to carry signs too.

A janitor [[cyborg]] is usually a more efficient janitor than you. It can clean floors by just moving onto them. But so can you once you get your [[Research_items#Floor_Buffer_Upgrade|floor buffer upgrade]].

==Cleaning Without Being Lynched==
Your janitorial cart can hold up to 100 units of liquid. This does not need to be straight water. If you're able to get [[Chemistry]] to give you 50 units of ammonia, you can mix it with 50 units of water. Congratulations! You just created 100 units of [[Guide to chemistry#Space Cleaner|Space Cleaner]]. Mopping the floor with [[Guide_to_chemistry#Space_Cleaner|Space Cleaner]] does not leave it slippery. People might still assume that if you're mopping without the signs that you're creating a safety hazard, so make sure to correct them BEFORE they choke you to death.

The bars of [[soap]] are a great cleaning implement on the station. They don't leave slippery puddles behind, and they're good for getting those hard-to-reach places (like that vomit under the surgery table) that cleaning grenades can't. Your bar of Nanotrasen brand soap is limited to 300 uses.

Remember that your bottle of Space Cleaner [[File:Cleaner.png]] can clean tiles instantly as well. If you aim far enough from your position, you can clean up to five tiles in a single spray. Useful to quickly clean up your [[Traitor|evidence]].

By right-clicking on the spray bottle, you can tip the contents out of it.

You can clean bloody people by spraying them with your Space Cleaner [[File:Cleaner.png]].

Spray people with space cleaner if they are covered in blood around their head and chest (but not if they have bloody gloves). This usually makes people happy, as security officers won't hound them as much. Sometimes the station needs a hero though, all you need to do is mop the right floor, or spray water at the right time to stop the worst fiend humanity has ever known.

==Tips==
* Your [[PDA]] has a '''Custodial Locator'''. Use this to locate your janitorial cart [[File:Janitorial Cart.png]] or [[General_items#Mop|mop]] [[File:Mop.png|32x32px]]. This can also help you find your Custodial Closet, since that's where those items spawn.
* Your ID has access to the settings of [[Guide_to_robotics#Cleanbot|cleanbots]] [[File:Cleanbot.gif]]. Click a cleanbot with your ID to unlock it. You can then click the robot to alter its settings and turn it on or off.
* Instead of refilling the Light Replacer [[File:Lightreplacer0.png|32x32px]] with light tubes/bulbs, you can refill it with glass sheets [[File:Glass.png]].
* Lost your galoshes? Need more default Cleaner Grenades or buckets? Cargo can order a Janitorial Cart and Galoshes Crate and a Janitorial Supply crate, if you ask nicely.
* Clicking a spray bottle while it's in your hand actually changes the pressure knob to use less of the content when sprayed. (Alternates between 2 and 5)
** Right-Clicking on a spray bottle gives you the option to empty it.
* Learn how to mix [[Guide_to_chemistry#Space_Cleaner|space cleaner]]. This will make refilling your space cleaner bottle easier for when the [[Chemist|chemist]] can't be bothered.
* [[Guide_to_chemistry|Chemistry]] can make [[Guide_to_chemistry#Drying_Agent|drying agent]]. If splashed on your galoshes [[File:Jshoe.png|32x32px]] with right click, they will be transformed into purple absorbent galoshes, which still prevents you from slipping while also drying floor tiles you walk on.
* [[Guide_to_xenobiology#Red_Slime|Xenobiology]] can create speed potions. Use these on your galoshes [[File:Jshoe.png|32x32px]] and/or janicart [[File:Janicart.png|32x32px]] to make them faster

Most important, you have your purple soft cap to signify <s>your duty to the station</s> who to lynch when the [[Clown]] is wetting floors.

===Wet Floor Signs===
Drop warning signs where you mop. People get pissed when you don't. You don't have enough to cover every area you clean and between lag and every player running everywhere they're usually not spotted until people are already on their backs, but they can't blame you for doing what you can!

Shaking up those you slipped maintains favour with the crew. Do this by clicking on them with an empty hand. Smugly pointing at one of your signs incurs their ire.

Also, if people are chasing you, throw a bucket of water behind you, or where they will run into it, as they likely want to steal from you (your shoes are valuable). Or fill your spray bottle with a little water to quickly take down huge amounts of people.

People assume if someone slips, it was your doing. This may not be true. Often it was the [[chemist]] with [[Guide_to_chemistry#Space_Lube|space lube]], or a [[clown]] with a bucket of water. It's possible to differentiate between slipping on a wet floor and slipping on a lubed floor.

Make sure the [[detective]] has cleared a scene before you clean up an area of some blood. Follow people dragging bodies to the medical bay; they leave long trails of blood which means more work for you.

People are going to accidentally charge your cart halfway down the hallway. Kind people will get on the other side of it and push it back to you. There's no avoiding this, apart from not using the cart and relying on the space cleaner [[File:Cleaner.png]], or using the mop with buckets of water held on your person. This would require you to carry signs too.

A janitor [[cyborg]] is usually a more efficient janitor than you. It can clean floors by just moving onto them. But so can you once you get your [[Research_items#Floor_Buffer_Upgrade|floor buffer upgrade]].

==Cleaning Without Being Lynched==
Your janitorial cart can hold up to 100 units of liquid. This does not need to be straight water. If you're able to get [[Chemistry]] to give you 50 units of ammonia, you can mix it with 50 units of water. Congratulations! You just created 100 units of [[Guide to chemistry#Space Cleaner|Space Cleaner]]. Mopping the floor with [[Guide_to_chemistry#Space_Cleaner|Space Cleaner]] does not leave it slippery. People might still assume that if you're mopping without the signs that you're creating a safety hazard, so make sure to correct them BEFORE they choke you to death.

The bars of [[soap]] are a great cleaning implement on the station. They don't leave slippery puddles behind, and they're good for getting those hard-to-reach places (like that vomit under the surgery table) that cleaning grenades can't. Your bar of Nanotrasen brand soap is limited to 300 uses.

Remember that your bottle of Space Cleaner [[File:Cleaner.png]] can clean tiles instantly as well. If you aim far enough from your position, you can clean up to five tiles in a single spray. Useful to quickly clean up your [[Traitor|evidence]].

By right-clicking on the spray bottle, you can tip the contents out of it.

You can clean bloody people by spraying them with your Space Cleaner [[File:Cleaner.png]].

Spray people with space cleaner if they are covered in blood around their head and chest (but not if they have bloody gloves). This usually makes people happy, as security officers won't hound them as much. Sometimes the station needs a [[The Owl|hero]] though, all you need to do is mop the right floor, or spray water at the right time to stop the worst fiend humanity has ever known.

==Tips==
* Your [[PDA]] has a '''Custodial Locator'''. Use this to locate your janitorial cart [[File:Janitorial Cart.png]] or [[General_items#Mop|mop]] [[File:Mop.png|32x32px]]. This can also help you find your Custodial Closet, since that's where those items spawn.
* Your ID has access to the settings of [[Guide_to_robotics#Cleanbot|cleanbots]] [[File:Cleanbot.gif]]. Click a cleanbot with your ID to unlock it. You can then click the robot to alter its settings and turn it on or off.
* Instead of refilling the Light Replacer [[File:Lightreplacer0.png|32x32px]] with light tubes/bulbs, you can refill it with glass sheets [[File:Glass.png]].
* Lost your galoshes? Need more default Cleaner Grenades or buckets? Cargo can order a Janitorial Cart and Galoshes Crate and a Janitorial Supply crate, if you ask nicely.
* Clicking a spray bottle while it's in your hand actually changes the pressure knob to use less of the content when sprayed. (Alternates between 2 and 5)
** Right-Clicking on a spray bottle gives you the option to empty it.
* Learn how to mix [[Guide_to_chemistry#Space_Cleaner|space cleaner]]. This will make refilling your space cleaner bottle easier for when the [[Chemist|chemist]] can't be bothered.
* [[Guide_to_chemistry|Chemistry]] can make [[Guide_to_chemistry#Drying_Agent|drying agent]]. If splashed on your galoshes [[File:Jshoe.png|32x32px]] with right click, they will be transformed into purple absorbent galoshes, which still prevents you from slipping while also drying floor tiles you walk on.
* [[Guide_to_xenobiology#Red_Slime|Xenobiology]] can create speed potions. Use these on your galoshes [[File:Jshoe.png|32x32px]] and/or janicart [[File:Janicart.png|32x32px]] to make them faster

Your job is to mop up blood, oil, dust and vomit, replace broken or missing light bulbs and tubes, and pick up litter. It's more fun than it sounds!

[[File:CCloset.png|frame|alt=Custodial Closet|[[Custodial Closet|Home sweet home]]]]<br>

==Stellar Patrol, it's not a job, it's an adventure!==
You have the most <s>important</s> time consuming, under appreciated and eventually pointless job on the station. You keep small areas from looking shitty while the areas you've already cleaned are covered with blood and litter again. You'll clean floors, toss out junk, replace broken lights and overall, keep the station resembling a workplace and not an anarchist playground!
