Remote repairers are artificial body parts added by the Biotech DLC that allow mechanitors to repair their mechanoids from a distance.

Acquisition

Remote repairers can be crafted at a machining table once the high mechtech research project has been completed. Note that this research requires a powerfocus chip to unlock. Each requires 1 Powerfocus chip, 6 Components, 3,200 ticks (53.33 secs) of work modified by the general labor speed of the crafter, and a crafting skill of 6.

Summary

Remotely repair a mech. The mechanitor links with the mech and uses their brain to provide detailed guidance for its self-repair mechanites beyond its own psychic capacity. This allows the mech to make progress in rapidly healing damage.
— "Remote Repair" Ability description

Having at least 1 remote repairer installed gives access to the Remote Repair ability.

Remote repair is analogous to regular repairing, just from a distance.^[Verify] A mechanitor must have line of sight in order to initiate the repair, but it can be sustained through walls. Both the mechanitor and the mech are unable to shoot or use abilities during remote repair. The mech can move freely, but must stay in range to remain repaired.

Up to 3 remote repairers can be installed in each mechanitor's brain. Each installed repairer increases repair range as follows:

Num. Repairers	Repair range (Tiles)	Increase from prev. (Tiles)
1	7.9	-
2	13.9	+6
3	19.9	+6

Installation

Unlike most medical implants, the remote repairer is not installed via an operation and instead can be painlessly self-installed by a conscious mechanitor in about 2 seconds. Simply right click on the item on the ground and click "Implant remote shielder" or "Upgrade remote shielder to level X" if one has already been installed. A max of 3 can be installed on any one mechanitor and cannot be uninstalled. If the mechanitor dies by any means and is resurrected all upgrades will be preserved, but if the mechlink is extracted to be installed in another pawn, all upgrades to the Mechlink will be lost.
