Biorobot Maintenance Unit

Unlocked by Default

False

Forcep units are modified Pincers, mirroring their maintenance work, but specializing in flesh. While biorobots are expendable with short lifespans – a torn limb or light-incineration aren’t an economical reason to throw away perfectly salvageable Termitoids.

This is why the Forcep has been equipped with nanite-based repair subroutines to cheaply fix injuries and mechanical damage – efficiently healing “employees” with material from C-Balls. If the biorobots had any self-awareness, the painful scarring, grafting, and stitching process would drive them to insanity.
