Bionic limbs


Recommended Posts

My idea is to add bionic limbs that improve the performance of dupe. They'd be made of thermium and each dupe could only have one. Arms would increase strength, build speed, and dig speed and legs would increase movement speed heavily. Any further ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Bionic limbs basic version > Increases walking speed by 30% ( copper, carbon & plastic )

Bionic limbs Plutonium Powered Extreme Edition > Weight lifting + 333%

( steel,copper,plastic,tungsten,wolframite,plutonium,lead,electrum,refined carbon )

Wheelchair for the win!

1. bionic limbs should also let to jump higher.
3. Ultra bionic limbs supreme edition -  inserts automatic mopers into the dupes feet. If something is assigned to mopping the mopping occurs just by stepping into the liquid.

bionic lungs - T1 - reduce oxygen consumption by 50%
bionic lungs - T2 - no lung slime hazard. The dupe consumes 85g oxygen per sec, 50g are stored. Stores up to 21kg of oxygen. The oxygen can be released into the environment or used to breathe in oxygen-free rooms.
bionic lungs - T3 - all T2-buffs + breathing under water. No CO2 exhaling. The dupe will produce 6kg of petroleum instead. The body temperature of the dupe increases to 75oC
bionic lungs - T4 - dupe gets an in-built jet-pack. The stored petroleum can be used to power it, or the dupe can drink some petroleum.

For the strenght, there's already the rock crusher that greatly improve it.

For movement speed, you have panel type, and transit tube to move the duplicants faster from one point to another.

And I don't think it was really usefull to improve the digging and building skill more than currently (remember that the atmosuit already give a digging bonus)

 

So, sorry, but I think this idea is of no use. ;)

Can we also butcher dead dupes and make hats out of their skin?

500 Decor and moraleboost till the hat rot and stinks, then the assigned dupe has a 7,5% chance to get zombified, increasing 1% each cycle.
When he is zombified he bite other dupes (limbs off) and wears them, which increases runspeed 5% for each additional leg and 5% workspeed, for each additional arm.

And makes 1 vacillator recharge with the brain ? :D

Zombie eat brains !!! :shock:

Yes but zombiefied dupes aka dupified zombies could have reduced needs/calories, only 50 calories around midnight needed. (reminds me, that light is still not implemented) and each brain gives 300 calories, when used as food.
Dupes could be farmed, but don't get groomed, they get tortured.
Would make sense to print fresh dupes then.

 


 

Duplicants literally replacing their bean-like bodies with bionics is a bit much for this cutesy game, wouldn't you think... I think it instead should be a wearable Exoskeleton, a new clothing which improves your stats, walking or hauling. But will need manual charging by power-plugs.

 

(Yes I know that some people farm hatches like caged chicken with the most inhuman tactics)

Bionic Belly Exosceleton Tier I - Dupe will consume 10 kg Mushroom a day, withstanding bloating belly pressure. Some pressure is released as "Giggles" ( Moral + 6 )

Bionic Belly Exosceleton Tier II - Dupe will never again pee the traditional way, but release pee by sweating it out. Due to the condensing thermal effect the temperature drops by 5 degree Celsius within 2 tiles around the dupe

Bionic Belly Exosceleton Tier III - Dupe will inhale double the amount of oxygen and needs helium to remain happy. This effect will make the dupe scientifically "So light from the inside", that the belly expands and has a visible balloon effect. Ground traction is no more required and the dupes main way of movement is floating, but only in diagonal ways.

We got an exosuit forge so i`d prefer an exoskeleton than mechanical limbs. Like @Alfons100 said it could need charging at a station similar to exosuit docks and could wildly improve dupe strength and move speed (maybe give it wheels). Would be useful for inbase tasks and stuff that doesn`t require an extra oxygen supply.
