Re: Stasis beds are shit.

One problem is how it’s impossible to use as a cyborg. Cyborgs don’t have open hands to unbuckle people so If someone is buckled to it the only way I can get them off it is waiting for them to unbuckle themselves, waiting for someone else to unbuckle them, or just taking the bed apart.

Re: Fixing the Left Click+Drag Conflict For Borgs

Give borgs the same intents as normal crew. It's simple to code and most effective. What purpose does this have when it only means anything for this specific scenario? Borgs don’t have open hands so they can’t use the intents and it just changes how their modules interact with things or if they can...
