Tells amusing and interesting facts about space. Like a light year is a unit of distance, not time.
When e-magged, it tells lies instead.
FACT: FactBot is useless in emergencies.

I think it would be pretty great if emagged factbot's facts were not just probably lies, but downright psychotic.
FACT: Regicide is an acceptable means to improve your job access. Captain is at their weakest while they are drunk.
FACT: Breaking into Security's Armory is the way to become an official member of security.
FACT: Sulphuric acid makes great heartburn medicine.
FACT: This Station has an paycheck bonus for every other member of the crew that you kill. Make sure to kill your coworkers in order to get rich!

I am not an artist at all.
However I got bored and destroyed a sectron sprite for a factbot proof of concept.

I tried to sort of modify his head into a gas mask, and give him a tiny blue book of facts, but like I said art is not my trade.

Wirebot
Constructed from: Coil of wire + Crowbar +Toolbox + Proximity Sensor + Robot Arm
Function: Another repair robot, this one knows the standard wiring layout of the ship, and if it detects the wiring is missing in its proximity, it pulls up the floor, repairs the wire, then replaces the tile. It doesn't touch new wiring, it simply repairs the old layout.
Emagged: Removes all wiring, and also steals all the floor tiles.

VendorBot
Constructed from: Sous Chef's hat + Robot arm + Proximity sensor
Function: Picks up a few food items from the kitchen and wanders the halls dispensing them to people. Scans them for poisons.
Emagged: Force feeds random people, doesn't scan for poison, yells obscenity's.

Should be able to be programmed to sell food for cash.

Hugbot: Right cyborg arm + Left cyborg arm + proximity sensor + small box + hug the resulting bot
Function: Hugs people occasionally, incites the envy of nearby guardbuddies because it can hug twice as much
Emagged: Offers to hug you but then screams SIKE when you get close
Re: More Robots - RAWK_LAWBSTAR - 10-24-2015
I would suggest that an emagged hugbut should suplex you when it hugs.
Re: More Robots - UrsulaMejor - 10-24-2015
I wouldn't suggest that. the emag is currently a very powerful item. I like the idea of emagged bots being rude and annoying, but to give the emag so many death and harm options would be power creep

Re: More Robots - locusts - 12-23-2015
I want to revive this thread a little. Having played a fair few rounds on Destiny as the roboticist, it's become clear that there aren't nearly as many cyborgs to look after most of the time. While this frees you up to do other things, it also makes the job a little duller. Adding more little robots that could add life to the ship would be a big boon, I think.
I also wanted to share this, as it's related to a robot idea I submitted.
