This is something I considered in the past as well. Having to memorize which tool to use to get to the right organ has always been a subpar system. But it was the solution to path routing without trivializing how you perform surgery by just making a popup box that you select which organ you wanna remove and then holds your hand down the path.
I'd want to meet in the middle. Remove the initial radial menu on surgery start that shows every organ that can be selected. Instead, have it let you target regions of the body:
- Ribs(and organs inside them),
- Subcostal(below ribs, right or left for liver, spleen, pancreas),
- Abdomen/navel(intestines/stomach),
- Flanks, left or right(kidneys)
Then take it from there with zero-ing in on an organ with the "ideal" surgery tool.
If the popup part of this was implemented as-is, I'd see it as an attachment to the surgery computer or medical training instead of everywhere. Since it's more like a tool to teach you than a new system.
The other parts of this do sound like they will solve a lot of issues like the implants, suturing and pathing. Which is sorely needed and am glad to see addressed.
