A maintenance drone can perform various tasks around the station including repairing walls and floors, laying cable, creating lights and cameras to be placed, cleaning messes, and more.

Maintenance Drone

Superiors: Your laws.
Difficulty: Medium
Guides: Guide to Engineering, Guide to Construction, Meteor Guide
Access: Everywhere
Duties: Repair, clean, maintain station. Do not interfere with crew.


In-game Description

Drones are player-controlled synthetics which are lawed to maintain the station and not interact with anyone else, except for other drones. They hold a wide array of tools to build, repair, maintain and clean. They function similarly to other synthetics, in that they require recharging reguarly, have laws, and are resilent to many hazards, such as fire, radiation, vacuum, and more. Ghosts can join the round as a maintenance drone by using the appropriate verb in the 'ghost' tab. An inactive drone can be rebooted by swiping an ID card on it with engineering or robotics access.

Laws

1. You may not involve yourself in the matters of another being, unless the other being is another drone.

2. You may not harm any being, regardless of intent or circumstance.

3. You must maintain, repair, improve, and power the station to the best of your abilities.

Moving around the station

Drones have a variety of ways to move around the station.

Vents and Air Scrubbers

Like mice, drones can ventcrawl to move around the station. For that you must Alt+Click on the vent/scrubber.

Disposals

Drones can jump into disposals and let the system handle them by itself. They can set their destination using the "Set mail tag" verb in the "Drone" tab.

Tools and Materials

Maintenance drones are equiped with a variety of tools and raw materials that include:

Tools

  • Crowbar
  • Wrench
  • Welding tool
  • Screwdriver
  • Wirecutters
  • Cable Coils
  • Multitool
  • T-ray Scanner
  • Magnetic gripper
  • Matter decompiler
  • Space cleaner
  • Soap

Materials

  • 50 Metal
  • 20 Floor pannels
  • 50 Glass
  • 50 Reinforced glass
  • 50 Metal rods
  • 10 Wood planks
  • 20 Wooden floor tiles

A Drone's role on the Station

A maintenance drone can perform various tasks around the station including repairing walls and floors, laying cable, creating lights and cameras to be placed, cleaning messes, and more. Their role is similar to that of an engineering cyborg, except drones do not have a Rapid Construction Device and they can enter vents to travel the station. Another difference from cyborgs is that maintenance drones are not bound to the station's AI. However, they do still have to follow their own laws.

Flavour text

It's a tiny little repair drone. The casing is stamped with an NT logo and the subscript: 'Nanotrasen Recursive Repair Systems: Fixing Tomorrow's Problem, Today!'
