Stat Modifiers
Medicine is used to improve outcomes when treating a colonist's injury(s), to remove or install body parts/replacements, and to build hospital beds.
Healing is done by colonists with the medicine skill enabled. The patient needs to have patient enabled and be in a bed. Medicine is not required, but will improve the chance of a good treatment drastically, allow for the healing of multiple small injuries in one go and double the amount of experience gained by the doctor.
Good Treatment doubles a colonist's heal rate and reduces the chance of any lasting effect from an injury.
As doctoring greatly depends on consciousness, sight and manipulation, having a doctor with bionic eyes and hands greatly improves the effectiveness of your medicine.
| Doctoring stats | Consciousness | Sight | Manipulation |
|---|---|---|---|
| Base Healing Quality | - | 70% | 90% |
| Healing Speed | 100% | 80% | 90% |
| Surgery Success Chance | 100% | 40% | 40% |
The table above describes the importance of a doctors consciousness, sight and manipulation. For example: if a doctor has only 75% manipulation, his healing quality and healing speed is reduced by 25% * 90% = 22.5%, while his surgery success chance is reduced by 25% * 40% = 10%.
Resource Shortage
No Medicine
Sometimes resources are scarce and treatment has to go forward without any medicine. This guarantees bad treatment quality from any but the most experienced and/or enhanced of doctors.
| Chance for Good Treatment | ||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
