While I get the balancing part of it, does it really makes sense? How does the entire colony find out that you harvested some guys organs? I'd prefer it to be one of those things I sweep under the rug, keep the colony in blissful ignorance.

I think I've been sigged more times as a result of my comments in this thread than I have in most of my other activity on these forums.

Pretty sure they will just return to your colony as normal, as that is what happens if you arrest berserking colonists.
Damn, no way to banish peeps then. There goes my plan to get rid of abrasive bastards the nice way.

Short answer: Gossip.
Longer answer: 'Holy crap you won't believe what dr. Bob just did to that prisoner!'

Well yea but, can't it be the dark underbelly of the colony, the things we do so it survives, but no one ever knows.

I'd like to have a positive buff after implanting a limb or organ successfully...

I think there should be a positive social modifier for succesfully operating. Pawns take a -15 social hit with the doctor if they botch the operation. So a +5 or +10 modifier for "installed my new lung" or whatever seems fair.

Hm. OK.
I guess it doesn't help that it's for the "greater good", ha? XD

So in this case I'll have to feed my "donators" a bit longer to not annoy my colonists too much at a time.

No, this is one of the big uses of crypto caskets. Harvest organ -> get debuff -> starve prisoner to 87% (they get close to death and you can carry them to a casket without actually hurting them) -> wait until debuff wears off -> take prisoner out again -> feed them back to health -> repeat.

It takes some work, but saves food and beds and production time.

edit: sorry, re-read the thread and saw that I already said this 6 months ago.
