Some new borg ideas

[Dark lord derpy]

 

Im sorry for my poor formatting, this was some brainstorming I was doing in text edit, I feel that some new borg modules would be cool to have, and be useful to the crew.

 

 

Borgs:

Cook: Robots cooking food is common in sci-fi, and is something that currently, cyborgs and androids in SS13 are not able to do.

Spatula: This item allows a cyborg to grab food items from tables and fridges to put into the microwave or deliver to tables.

Salt shaker

Pepper shaker

Fridge: this is a miniature fridge for storing food and drinks.

kitchen knife

kitchen cleaver (emag)

Botany:

seed dispensor: the seed dispensor used by the botany borg has less selection than that of the one on the station, it cant grow stuff like weed but it can grow tomatos, corn, chile, and various other more legal things.

rake

produce bag

watering can

bottle

plant analyzer

CHAINSAW (emag)this chainsaw is more deadly than the standard botany chainsaw

Chemistry:

Large beaker: the borg can use chem dispensors with this beaker.

small beaker x2

reagent scanner

bottler/pill machine: the borg can place the large beaker into its internal pill machine to dispense pills

dropper

chemsprayer (emag)

Surgeon: The Surgeon cyborg can perform surgeries, however it cannot lay patients down on its own, so it might need assistants, it has no emag tool because a rogue surgeon can already be extremely dangerous

Circular saw

drill

scalpal

hemostat

cautery

anesthesia mask

retractor

bone setter

bone gel

 

Detective:

Detective scanner

evidence storage

security tape

forensic analysis: the detective cyborg has a portable version of the machine in the forensics lab

autopsy scanner

scalpal

 

------------

Clown-borg: The module must be created, which requires bananium

Banana peel

Pie cannon

bike horn

rainbow crayon

Squirt flower

Laughing gas grenade (emag)

 

Chaplain borg: the module must be created, requiring holy water

Holy water dispensor

Null rod

Holy book

Candles

lighter

null rod

Holy sulfuric acid (emagged)

 

Bots:

 

Survey bots: can do automated scans of mineral depsosits and mark digsites for you for xenoarcheology.

 

Cam-bot: essentially a floating camera that wanders around the station taking pictures and recording everything it sees

I'd rather see the chemistry module merged with the medical module.

 

Or better just allowing cyborgs to put the large beaker into chem dispensers.

 

Or even better, skip the chemistry module and allow cyborg hypospray to scan chemicals (like the Odysseus syringe gun).

In all srsness. Id be a camera borg......

A survey borg seem meh, id try it, but perhaps more input is needed.

The Camera bot and Survey bot are Bots, not borgs, sorta like a medibot or beepski.

Another borg: Custom borg, this module allows the roboticist to install his choice of five items to the borg, this can be pretty much anything that he can get his hands on.

• Cyborg to replace Chef

 

 

Just a chef, but with the added feature of being unable to fall back on anything else when they inevitably get bored of doing nothing because nobody ever wants to eat anything.

 

 

• Cyborg to replace Botanist

 

 

Just a botanist, but with the added feature of being unable to fall back on anything else when they inevitably get bored of botany. It's only job is smoke robot weed while idly watching all his human masters die in the massive hull breach that he could've fixed if only he had chosen a borg module that was actually useful.

 

 

• Cyborg to replace Chemist

 

 

With Medborgs taking up all the actual healing and Genetics becoming absolutely impossible, Chemist is the last useful job Medbay has. See below rant.

 

 

• Cyborg to replace Surgeon

 

 

With Medbots and Medborgs insta-healing anybody who walks into the Medbay lounge, the only thing the actual Medical Doctors are good for is surgery. If you're going to make a Surgeon and Chemist borg, you might as well just get rid all of Medbay and all it's jobs and just let the borgs run around responding to calls.

 

 

• Cyborg to replace Detective

 

 

Just a detective, but with the added feature of being unable to fall back on anything else when they inevitably get bored of investigating because there's never anything to investigate because subtlety is outright shunned among SS13's traitors and greytiders. Best case scenario, Security Borg 2.0

 

 

• Cyborg to replace Clown

 

 

Seriously?

 

 

• Cyborg to replace Chaplain

 

 

Seriously?

 

 

 

Engineer Borg is the only borg that is useful, has ever been useful or will ever be useful (except maybe Secborgs, but to a much lesser extent). We need less borgs, not more.

 

I do love the idea of new bots, though, but I don't really see the purpose of the ones you've described.

Some people enjoy being borgs, It provides a fun roleplaying experience, this allows more options for players wanting to play as borgs allowing proffessions that right now they cant really do, and borgs can always ask for a module switch if they get bored. also these jobs dont 'replace' the original jobs, if you are injured to the point where cloning is difficult/impossible, you can now still do your job as a cyborg. the clown and chaplain borg are meant mainly for people who were a clown or chaplain in life and wish to continue that.
