As long as you can't change out the head. Like, 90% of borgs on RP want the screen head and if they could just change into it in the docks you'd have 3 minutes of things to do at the start of rounds
I also like the idea more with a resource cost, like it using wiring and welding fuel to swap out the limbs. That stuff never runs out unless borgs are getting the shit kicked outa them anyways, and it'd make sure you can't just swap out broken limbs for new ones like changing gloves. Also means roboticists still have something to do if they aren't the ones replacing the limbs.
Yeah that makes sense. It'll have to rewire and weld the parts back to the frame. The head thing makes sense too, that's where the brain is and you'd need a surgeon's fine hands to do that work. Best you could do is take the head and put it on a new chest frame.
I'd love it in the future if there were more strategic reasons to choose between limb types and visiting the dock to swap limbs wasn't just for repair, but for doing some respec to prepare for a task
