The Circadian Assistant gives a pawn that's been implanted with it a bonus of -20% Rest fall rate.

When a pawn with this implant is shocked with EMP they will receive brain shock, knocking them unconscious temporarily.

Acquisition

Circadian assistants can be crafted at a Fabrication bench once the Circadian influence research project has been completed. The required techprint can be obtained either by trade or completing quests for the Empire. They require Plasteel 15 Plasteel, Advanced component 4 Advanced components, 26,000 ticks (7.22 mins) of work, and a Crafting skill of 8.

Removing the part requires 2,500 ticks (41.67 secs) of work, 1x medicine of ?? quality or better, and a Medical skill of 5.

If the operation fails, the part has a chance[What Chance?] to be destroyed.

Analysis

It is a decent implant, allowing for 20 percent more work hours while still retaining normal consciousness, the mood buff from a good bedroom, and the ability for couples to engage in lovin', unlike the circadian half-cycler. Using a EMP weapon on a mentally broken pawn will shock (via applying the brain shock condition) them and bring them out of their state (but without the +40 Catharsis mood buff). However, the risk of brain shock means that supporting melee pawns with a brain implant installed with EMP weapons is no longer an option against mechanoids.

Notes

Despite its description, it does nothing to mitigate toxic buildup.
