Using a posi brain in hand wipes the full memory of the posi brain, as if a new ghost possessed it
Using an MMI in hand removes the brain, killing it (fixed with mannitol), wipes recent memories
Both options take time (currently 2 seconds)
When deconstructing a borg, the mmi/posi must 'reboot' for a period of time (currently 12 seconds)
While rebooting the mmi/posi is unable to speak
Removing the brain from the MMI during the reboot results in memory loss of dying as borg as well
The removal/reset needs to be started in enough time to allow it to complete before the reboot does to cause the larger memory loss

Activating an SSD posi brain will re-poll ghosts

Wiki info

2 seconds to remove brain/reset posi
10 second window to start the reset on a posi brain, giving a 12 second reboot timeer

Changelog

🆑
tweak: Removing a brain from an MMI kills the brain (fixable with mannitol), and removes recent memories
tweak: Positronic brains can now have all their memories reset
tweak: MMIs and Positronic Brains must 'reboot' after their body is deconstructed, preventing them from speaking
tweak: Removing the brain from an MMI during the reboot, will make the brain forget the borg death as well
tweak: SSD Positronic brains will poll for a new ghost when activated
/:cl:

…timer during which the MMI/psoi brain cannot speak

Why?

Better than borg getting shoved in a corner to never be heard from again?

This is a lot to keep track of. I can see people getting confused on whether or not they remember something or miss the flavor text completely and not know they forgot something

The flavor text is massive and red, missing it is a skill issue
