For some reason when I go to install a cbm the autodoc says I need 0ml of anesthetic to install, and it works just fine as if I had actually used anesthetic. I’m humbled by how powerful the game wants me to be, but so far every time I’ve installed a cbm I’ve just been throwing out an arbitrary amount of anesthesia to make up for it and I would prefer to just fix the glitch at this point. Any ideas, or does anyone happen to have a calculator/the formula for how much anesthetic is actually required by each cbm?

Yeah, that’s [known problem](https://github.com/CleverRaven/Cataclysm-DDA/issues/46684).

My problem is very similar, but the autodoc doesnt even require anesthetic to work. Every installation or removal requires 0ml of anesthetic per the autodoc

Maybe a silly question, but just for transparency’s sake I’ll ask anyway - Does your character have the sensory dulling cbm? You never need anesthetic with that installed.

No, I should’ve mentioned that in the post. The character still feels pain normally and everything. I’ve even had autodocs fail and I didn’t get any negative effects, but that might be because I have high health care.
