Are you a Roboticist? This guide will explain the creation and maintenance of Cyborgs, bots, and stocky exosuits.
Exosuit Fabricators
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.
Cyborgs
Requires |
---|
1 x each Cyborg part (made with the Exosuit Fabricator) |
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:
- Insert a charged power cell into the cyborg's chest
- Insert a coil of wire into the cyborg's chest
- 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
- 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, if your borg leaves the name up to you, be sure to name it 'PenisShitter 5000'. For some hilarity and general confusion, try giving the borg the same name as the AI.
- Once it's complete, it's time for the brain. See here how to remove your volunteer's brain.
- 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.
Cyborg Maintenance
Dented cyborgs can be repaired with a welding tool. Heat damage to cyborgs (from fires or lasers) can be repaired by using a screwdriver to open the cyborg's wiring panel (concealed inside the power cell cavity) and then re-wiring the damaged circuits. Engineering cyborgs can repair dents on themselves and on their fellow cyborgs. They cannot repair burn damage though, since they cannot remove power cells to reach the wiring.
In the beginning of a maintenance process, you need to open the Cyborg's maintenance cover. To open it:
After the maintenance process use the same tools in reverse order so the Cyborg doesn't run around with its cover open, like so:
Cyborg Batteries
You will often see at least one Cyborg come to your assembly line to ask for an upgrade.
- Unlock and open the Cyborg's cover.
- With an Empty Hand, remove the old battery.
- Insert a New Battery.
- Close the cover and lock the Cyborg.
Cyborg Radios
Cyborgs can be installed with radio encryption keys, allowing them to communicate on secure department channels.
- Unlock and open the Cyborg's cover.
- Insert a New Encryption Key (or Screwdriver to remove the current Key).
- Close the cover and lock the Cyborg.
Reviving Cyborgs
A cyborg that has failed but not been turned into scrap can be repaired back to working order.
- Create an Emergency Restart Module at the Exosuit Fabricator (under Cyborg Upgrade Modules).
- Repair the Cyborg with a welder and/or replace wires.
- Unlock and open the Cyborg's cover.
- Insert the Emergency Restart Module.
- Close the cover and lock the Cyborg.
Upgrading Cyborgs
- Unlock and open the Cyborg's cover.
- Insert the Upgrade Module (or emag to subvert).
- Close the cover and lock the Cyborg.
Deconstructing Cyborgs
Cyborgs can be deconstructed to remove their MMI and get their parts back.
- Unlock and open the Cyborg's cover.
- Use an Empty Hand to remove battery.
- Screwdriver to open wiring.
- Cut every wire until the lockdown light turns on.
- Wrench to disassemble.
(Alternatively, for steps 4 and 5, you can use a Robotics console)
Removing Brains
Upgrades
Roboticists can construct upgrade modules for cyborgs, such as one that increases your movement speed. Should you wish to change models, request a module reset board be used on you.

Bots
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 by placing all the parts on a table and click-dragging it to yourself. This can save a lot of time during construction, especially if Robotics is busy!
Medibot
Heals anyone nearby. Can be equipped with a beaker to stick people with instead of the default medicine, and when emagged it will inject people with toxins, repeatedly.
To manufacture:
Requires |
---|
1 x Borg Arm (left or right) |
- Attach the Borg Arm (left or right, doesn't matter) to an empty Med-kit. Color of the Med-kit doesn't matter, although it will affect the colour of the Medbot.
- You can pick the assembly up in your hand at this point and name it something clever/funny/stupid by holding your Pen in the other hand and clicking on it, if you wish.
- Add a Medical Analyzer.
- Insert the Proximity Sensor and your Medibot is ready!
Cleanbot
Cleanbots are great, as they serve the exact same purpose as the Janitor. What makes it even better is that it uses Space Cleaner to mop, so no slipping on everything! When Emagged (or hacked) it will spew slippery foam and melt people with acid.
To make:
Requires |
---|
1 x |
- Grab a bucket from the Janitor or make with Autolathe and insert the Proximity Sensor to it
- Use a Pen to name it if you wish.
- Attach a Borg Arm and your Cleanbot is ready!
Floorbot
Floorbots are nice to have around when some asshole starts crowbarring up floor tiles or some traitor has blown apart a section of the station. They zoom around and repair busted floor tiles. Honestly, they're niche to the point of uselessness. But they make nice pets. Also, if emagged, they will deconstruct the floors into space.
To manufacture:
Requires |
---|
1 x |
- Attach a Floor tile to the Mechanical Toolbox.
- Add the Proximity Sensor.
- Insert a Borg Arm and your Floorbot is ready!
Securitron
Basically, Officer Beepsky without the personality. You usually won't need to build any of these, but they can be hilariously helpful for traitors who have invested in a Cryptographic Sequencer, as they tend to run around stunning and cuffing everyone in sight. Problem is, any of these that report a Level 10 Infraction when spotting people are obviously hacked.
To manufacture:
Requires |
---|
1 x |
- Use a Remote Signaling Device on a Helmet.
- Weld them together
- Add a Proximity Sensor.
- Insert a Borg Arm.
- Toss in a Stun Baton and your Securitron is ready!
Note: Destroying a Securitron or Officer Beepsky with a melee weapon is all but impossible by yourself; striking them causes them to immediately stun and cuff you. If you work with another person you can get several hits in while it is cuffing the other person, which is often enough to destroy it outright.
ED-209
PUT DOWN YOUR WEAPON. YOU HAVE 15 SECONDS TO COMPLY.
Beepsky's bigger brother. Has all of the abilities of a standard Securitron with the addition of a ranged attack.
To manufacture:
Requires |
---|
1 x Cyborg Endoskeleton |
- Build a Cyborg Endoskeleton from the Exosuit Fabricator.
- Use a Metal Sheet on a Cyborg Endoskeleton to reinforce it.
- Add two Robot Legs
- Add a Body Armor
- Weld everything together
- Add in a security Helmet
- Attach a Proximity Sensor to the assembly
- Insert wires
- Add a Hybrid Taser and attach it with a Screwdriver
- Insert a Power Cell. Your own exosuit is complete!
A emagged ED-209 fires deadly lasers AND attacks anyone on sight.
Drone
A disposable little drone that runs around and repairs things. Controlled by players, and can't interact with any other beings at all (besides other drones). Usually good to make lots of these to let ghosts get back into the round.
That's it! Any ghost can click on the drone shell to take control of it and start repairing the station. Note that to unlock drone shells, R&D needs Programming 2 and Biotechnology 4. The metal and glass costs of building a drone shell are trivial.
There is also a drone shell dispenser, in the Testing Lab on Box Station, that can be stocked with metal and glass to constantly produce drones.
Exosuits
Construction of Exosuit are restricted by ID, so they are typically the product of roboticists and the Research Director. These can be tremendously helpful or tremendously annoying depending on who uses it. They take more work to make than robots and require special circuits, which are obtained through the Quartermaster or the Research and Development console.
With all Exosuits, MMIs can be installed as drivers. But remember, MMIs are not bound to the AI or its laws, so don't put any deranged maniacs inside them. Remember to grant the suit access keys, because they don't have anything by default!
List of Exosuits
The current list of exosuits is as follows.
Ripley APLU
Total Part Cost: 100000 , 7500
The Ripley APLU (Autonomous Power Loading Unit) is a slow moving, decently protected exosuit.
