This is something to consider after fully merging the MODsuits, assuming it hasn't already been done. Mechanic was a job that handled the making and flying of pods. It got removed alongside pods IIRC. Now, hear me out: Bring back the Mechanic job and maybe their old office, with the focus being on the creation of MODsuits. The most obvious question in response to this is: "Why should this be done if Robotics can already make MODsuits?" The answer to that is this: Robotics already has a lot on their table. Cyborgs and Mechs alone are time-consuming, and with two roboticists with no guaranteed competence this is a big ask most of the time. With a Mechanic, MODsuit making can be left to someone else, alleviating the workload and having a neat role specifically for the time-consuming work that is MODsuit creation and customization. That's all I've got, really. Think about it, and think about the poor neglected borgs.

My main problem with this would be the same issue original mechanic had, them prioritizing themselves and then just waltzing off into space essentially being another explorer, then there is as was said earlier the factor of how long can someone really be bothered to be making modsuits over the course of a 2 hour round. Also competence or lack of it isn't a purely robotics issue either, the mechanic could be just as competent or incompetent, Also modsuits aren't really something everyone is suppose to/needs to have we're really only seeing them in such abundance because they're the new hotness. So I don't see much of a point to have a single job for a singular purpose that isn't all that vital, robotics has plenty of down time after the initial surge of borgs coming for their upgrades and if robotics needs to be focused on exosuits then chances are things are really bad and modsuits can take a back seat until whatever horrible biohazard or whatnot that caused the need for exos is dealt with.

If Mechanics get a little bit more, this could be great. It is a LOT for Robotics as is right now

Yes I am putting my well made shit post on here. I am so sorry.

People forget about how half the things we talking about in SS13 probably get us put on a list Great example below:
