This is an old bug that I totally forgot about till just recently..
If you are a cyborg, and you lose all or some of your limbs, and you had a tool in use at the time, you will PERMANENTLY lose that tool, even if you get new limbs, or transfer modules, or get a new module

The tool broke off is my explanation, but it -should- come back if you get a new module....or something.

I am almost certain you can rectify this by taking the borgs brain out and putting it back in, it's like some form of powercycle.
Still though, this has happened to me, and it's pretty lame.

It happens to me a lot. it is really annoying having your favorite tools suddenly be lost forever due to some random guy pumping lazers down the hall.

If you have the module removed, rewritten to the same type and reinstalled, it should reset all your tool availability. This is how it's worked every time I've had my tools blasted off, at least.
