First-Aid Mech

ist this just... paramedic but faster and dumber?

yep. it's 1.6 now.

Good mod!

Hi, can this bot also treat wounded from another faction?

figured it out. It won't work when set to escort

Hey, is there a way to force this thing to tend someone or can it only do it on it's own? The person I wanted to tend and the mechanoid itself were in command range but I didn't see any options to tend them

I also tried to disable surgery altogether, but unfortunately, my skills weren’t sufficient to make that work, so I had to go with this workaround instead. Maybe one day, after I improve, I’ll release First-Aid 2.0!

As for collaborating on a mechanoid expansion mod, I sincerely appreciate the offer! However, I am still a newbie in the world of modding. I know my own limitations and need to study and gain more experience before I’m ready. I'm sorry, but for now, I'm not quite there yet.

P.S. This reply was translated using ChatGPT. I hope the meaning was conveyed accurately!

Second, the low surgery success rate is to ensure that it doesn't overlap with the Paramedic's role. When creating downgraded versions of existing mechanoids, my biggest concern is making sure they do not overshadow their higher-tier counterparts. There are already other mods on the Workshop that enhance mechanoid capabilities. If First-Aid had a decent surgery success rate, the Paramedic would lose its purpose entirely.
I prefer to create mods that provide minor conveniences while respecting the original game design. That’s why I intentionally left surgery as the Paramedic’s job and assigned First-Aid a very low success rate for it.

You are the creator of the Isopod Mech, aren't you? I'm truly grateful that you like my mod!

To answer your question:

First, the fast work speed is an intentional characteristic of this mechanoid. As you might guess from its name, First-Aid was designed to quickly handle injuries like bleeding and fractures. I created it to help mitigate situations where a mechanitor accidentally gets their pawn severely injured in the early game, or when Randy suddenly throws the Black Plague or Malaria at you. In the case of bleeding, immediate treatment is crucial for survival, which is why I assigned it a high value of 2.25.

thanks
