[h3]4. To autodoc or not to autodoc.[/h3][small]
The autodoc does some things faster than a surgeon, and some things slower. Generally, having the autodoc fast forward through orange triage helps clear the queue fast.

As a general rule of thumb, the autodoc is best for patients that only requires 1-4 steps. And always take the ones that can be done the quickest first.

Here's what should preferable be done in the autodoc:

[b]Autodoc:[/b]
[list][*]Only organ damage or shrapnel and no broken bones. Autodoc does this faster because it does not have to open and mend the ribcage. Basically less steps.
[*]Broken bones and nothing else.
[*]Few broken bones and 1-2 organs (remember the 4 step rule)

Don't forget to do a blood transfer first if the toxin damage is caused by extreme blood loss. And likewise if it's organ damage or necrosis.
[/list]
[b]Do not Autodoc:[/b]
[list][*]If the damage is all in the same bodypart. Surgeons can do this much faster than the autodoc with a single sweep.
[/list]

Anything else not listed here will be depending on the situation and diagnose. See the AMOG for more information on the Autodoc.[/small]

[h3]5. Thou shall clear infections fast.[/h3][small]
The most secret trick in the book. Cauterizing incisions will clear interior infections if they have yet to start necrosis. But if they have IB, mending the vein will also clear an internal infection.

Exterior infections should still be treated with first aid.

[h3]6. Thou shall not forget splints.[/h3][small]
While splints are removed during incisions, don't forget to remove the splints that's been incorrectly placed. The patient can not do this themselves and may not realise they are still splinted.
