Ok so originally I was under the impression that having to clean tools for surgery was meant as a way to make it less convenient for people to do surgery to themselves as a lot of roboticists and salvagers did to change limbs and such while also not sacrificing the ability to do simple surgeries to maybe heal some basic wounds or whatever. You know, short surgeries that are not unrealistic for some to do to themselves while stopping longer surgeries like changing limbs.
So apparently thats not the case. I just found out you cannot do surgery to yourself, like at all. So why do we have cleaning tools again? What does cleaning your tools every five seconds to do surgery offer? Before it seemed like a compromise to not completely stop self surgeries while making them harder. Now what does it offer to the game? Is it for realism? Should we really make the process longer and harder to do for the sake of making the game about space wizards and dragons more close to reality?
I am having difficulties understanding the purpose of this feature. It only leads to fuck ups that take up time for no reason while also prolonging the surgery process even if it is executed perfectly
If anyone can offer me an explanation of why a feature like that is a thing then feel free to. Until I understand that reason I suggest we just remove it
