Robo-Janitor

Description
Robo-Janitors are introduced to the game with the Close Encounters DLC, in the third level, Chasm 24. Achieving star level 3 in that hospital will grant the player the Robo-Kit, which allow the creation of Robo-Janitors in all other hospitals.

Five different Robo-Janitors exist, each focusing only on a narrow set of janitorial skills, but performed more efficiently than their human counterparts. For example, a Coggerly Douse will upgrade machines with +120% skill, and extinguish fires, but will not repair machines or sweep up litter.

Appearance
Robo-Janitors wear the same type of coat as Janitors, although in different colour schemes, some with icons on their backs. They are, as their names imply, robotic, with blue glowing eyes and red glowing mouths. Their features are mostly silver, with navy blue accents. Their heads feature three rectangular openings, emulating a standard British electrical socket, which is the form of their interface with the Charging Point.

Models
A Robo-Kit can be placed in a hospital Corridor at a cost of $25,000. Using this item, a Robo-Janitor can be spawned at an additional cost, allowing one of each model to be built in each hospital outside of Chasm 24.

Customisation

 * Main article, see Staff Customisation

Unlike their human counterparts, Robo-Janitors cannot have their clothing customised individually. However, if a global change to the clothing of all Janitors is made within a hospital, then the Robo-Janitors will be included. In such a case, their original appearances cannot be restored.

In Chasm 24
One Robo-Janitor is granted at the outset of this hospital, a Sweepy Leroux. This level is the only one which requires Robo-Janitors; each plot features devices called stabilisers, which prevent various disasters from occurring. These stabilisers can only be maintained by the Robo-Janitors, a task they must balance with their other duties.

Seven further Robo-Janitors will be granted to the player upon unlocking certain plots, as specified on the Chasm 24 page.
