Prosthetics efficiency

[Neofit]

Hi,

One of my guys got his left hand shot off. The tooltip does not show any loss of efficiency.

I perform surgery and replace his whole arm with a simple prosthetic arm, and the tooltip starts showing 50% efficiency.

I reload and perform another surgery, giving him a powerclaw instead. 92% efficiency in the tooltip.

I haven't seen a bionic arm for sale yet since his "accident".

So I am wondering, is the tooltip for the shot off hand broken, or is it really easier for him to craft with no hand rather than with a claw or a whole prosthetic arm?

Where did you look for the efficiency with the lost hand ?
At the Manipulation under the health tab ?
Ofcouse the manipulation is reduced with a lost hand.
A Power claw isn't that good like a real hand, but a nice mellee weapon.
And a Bionic arm is even better then a regular arm.

Missing even just one finger reduces manipulation, so if you're seeing manipulation unaffected by missing a hand then something is wrong.

Scars and missing fingers all have an effect.  Neck scars reduce verbal skills for one thing.

Needs to be a body renewal bath or plastic surgery option.

Alcohol has an effect:




As does the old gunshot:




The shot off arm not so much:




Now, my level 12 doctor mistook a leg for an arm, it doesn't matter since I don't feel it anyway:



It's actally better, because the blunder removed the +pain that I had in the first screenshot, with apparently no ill effects whatsoever.


Second time's the charm, he found where the claw fits:



and now I have 92% efficiency. Which leads me to believe that I was at 100% efficiency without the claw. Otherwise something would have appeared in the popup, right? right?

This is more of an oversight than anything else. The hediff does not show efficiency for removed parts, but you can check total efficiency (it will be <100%). Might be worth opening a Mantis issue for this to try and get a fix in A16.

Oh, mea culpa, I didn't notice that we could see the value for our overall stats like Manipulation in a tooltip on the Health>Overview window. The torn off hand was giving me 48% Manipulation and it rose to 96% with the Claw. The tooltip for the shot off limbs is just not showing, and for animals too.

If you're interested in using a Mod, Fluffy's Medical Tab ( https://ludeon.com/forums/index.php?topic=16120.0 ) lays out in an easy to read way all of these stats. Missing a hand you would see manipulation at something like 50%. After the prosthetic arm is installed you may see it at 80% or something like that.

I find it very useful. It may help you better see what's going on here.
