+ | Paramedics are light mechanoids, and require [[Research#{{P|Required Research}}|{{P|Required Research}}]] to be researched. They are created from a standard [[mech gestator]] with {{Required Resources}}, taking up 1 [[bandwidth]] from a [[mechanitor]]. They take 1800 [[ticks]] to initially craft, and then it must gestate for 1 [[gestation cycle]]. A dead paramedic can be resurrected for {{icon small|steel}} 25 [[steel]] and 1 gestation cycle so long as the corpse is extant. | ||

Mechs under player control require power: paramedics use 10% of their power per day while active. If set to dormant self-charging, they instead recharge for +1% power / day, without pollution. They recharge in a [[mech recharger]] (constant 200W), for 50% power/day, creating 5 [[wastepack]]s whenever the recharger's waste is filled up. | Mechs under player control require power: paramedics use 10% of their power per day while active.

Paramedics work slowly without a [[mech booster]]. For reference, a skill 2 pawn is faster than a base paramedic, and skill 6 is faster than a mech-boosted paramedic. When triaging situations with multiple bleeding pawns, send almost ''any'' human doctor for patients who are critically [[Blood loss|bleeding out]], and paramedics for the rest. | Paramedics work slowly without a [[mech booster]].

You may want to group the paramedic with other combat mechanoids, keeping them dormant until a combat situation or disease outbreak occurs. Note that the mechanitor must be conscious to change Work Modes, so solo mechanitors should keep paramedics active, and consider having more than one. | You may want to group the paramedic with other combat mechanoids, keeping them dormant until a combat situation or disease outbreak occurs.
