Any way to purposefully remove a limb to replace with robotics?

[Ygdrad]

My rock bottom starter character has a robotic left arm and the bonus to martial arts is great. On my travels I found a great right arm with an even better bonus to martial arts. Is there any way to get rid of the natural right arm? If there is no direct way to intentionally do it, any of you have working strategies to have the limb ""accidentally"" come off?

Any commands to remove limbs?

get a prisoner and give them a really high cutting weapon and let them chop on your guy

I wanted to do this same thing when the limb update came out. I edited a custom recruit for hire in my local Waystation who had his limbs at -200 damage so he was a cripple right away when I recruited him.

However in this case you could probably just edit the requirement for limb loss in FCS. For example editing the required -100 damage to a smaller number. This way you could purposedly to go ingame, get hit and hope it is the right limb that gets destroyed.

You could save/load until you get the results you want and then disable the mod.

I'm not sure is this kind of editing possible yet, but this is the best I can come up with. Maybe someone has a better solution. :)

Are there any great armors for protecting the head/body without protecting the limbs? To avoid death while losing limbs.

What I did to lose my arms was:

1. Wear some high end gear that protects the rest of the body, but with minimal protection of the limbs you want to lose. Holy Chestplate and Chain Shirts work well. And grab the best helmet you can.

2. Then find some bandits with crossbows, kill all the melee bandits then put your character on hold.

3. Once only the ranged ones are attacking you, just let them keep firing until the limb(s) you want to lose pop off. If you got a good enough armour, the bolts should do no damage to the protected body parts.

Holy armor chest plates don't cover arms I know that.. as for no legs any pair of no armor pants should do it, or just go bottomless?

Standing on acid ground with no shoes also works quite well for losing the legs. As long as you're not a hiver or skeleton of course. :)
