The PC I am building is based around the concept Of being blown up. so he slowly rebuilds himself as a cyborg. I am having him be a mechanic with exocortex. who would upload itself to bots built to preform surgery. and would preform the surgery with his Knowledge.
The only problem I am running into is that Everything states that the cost for the cybernetics is included in the cost. And I have no idea on how much it would be without it.
any ideas how much it would take off the price?
That and would a disabled PC start with cybernetics or would it be taken out out starting credits?
I don't think you would be able to get any discount for doing the work yourself. I know it would make sense logically that you would, but I believe it is intentionally not allowed for game balancing. You would be able to effectively increase your wealth by level if you could and the crafting rules as laid out make this not possible on purpose.

Cost of creating/leasing/buying and maintaining magic surgery bots is equal to the cost of hiring some back-alley butcher to slap on your upgrades. I like the flavor of uploading and performing surgery on yourself, but that shouldn't reduce the price. Balance, and all that.
Don't forget that you need to invest in the medicine skill to attach cybernetics to people.
Ok. thank you. Reason why I was asking is the only text I found stating anything about it. was just that cost of Surgery was included in the price of the cybernetic.
Also i Do know I would have to put point into medicine to do this. I have it at max for a LV1 which is enough to install the cybernetic.
still, I understand the whole balancing issue. but all the text says. the once a cybernetic is installed it's useless to anybody else. And i figured that just the cost for the surgery would not be that much.
Would make things easier if they just had a chart for Avr pay of a surgeon or something like that.
but still thanks anyways... there goes my plan of saving money on myself...
