for example, can an inplanted biomonitor bo into any limb? arm, leg, hand, etc...
how about a system scanner or then the even more odd, how about an internal airtank... I realize it's generally a replaced lung, but also dont see why the tank couldn't be put into a cyberleg with nothing but an air tube going to the correct location... there are a couple others like this that have an implied location, but I dont see where it has to be there |

They can go in any limb as far as I know.

I think the only 'ware that has to go into a specific limb is the Hydraulic Jack must go in to cyberlegs.

I'd allow the hydraulic jack to be used in an arm, but as a hydraulic punch, not for jumping.
A hydraulic jack in the head would be amusing. -karma |

cool, one other cyber question,
is a simrig waisted space? as long as I have a hot sim module I dont see the point of another .5 essense just to be able to record... especially since if I really need to record I could do it with external devices right? |

QUOTE (makari @ Mar 9 2010, 04:54 PM)  is a simrig waisted space? Only if you install it in your cyber-waist... In all other locations it's like an implanted commlink or sim module - heavy-duty users probably want the implant, but the external version + trodes does the same. |

Very few do things that can't be replicated externally. Hand razors - Knife Skin pocket - Coat pocket Cybereyes - Goggles Cyberarm - Troll buddy with a really big arm etc. |
