Title: Android sickness
Post by: Grimandevil on February 15, 2016, 06:18:50 AM
So, one of my guise is android, got downed by severe case of... Flu.
I guess, humanity in this game succeeded in making such human-like robots, they even get deseases..

Do you mean android as in augmented extensively,  or a mod? Augmentation doesn't effect blood filtration or anything as far as i know, and there's still fleshy bits left.

I suppose a bionic kidney / antibodies would be pretty damn cool though,  giving a 300% boost against getting infection / recovery.

An android is basically a robot with human-like appearance. Those augmented are cyborgs.

Exactly,  so its a mod,  because iirc there's no full androids in vanilla rimworld.

If you mean the trait Android, that is a trait I added to MAI to give her some special things like the Psycho immunity. This doesnt suppress the normal colonist illnesses though. But MAI itself should have some code to prevent illnesses, i think..

Unfortunately this trait may be used by other characters too. so they get the advances, but they dont have the illness imunity..
