I mean, the way Inferi makes it sound is that SOAA does not have the desire to hack robots or control armies unless she absolutely has to. Also, she has to hack Firewalls, learn how to control the mec*, upload her personality into said robot. All this could take time to do.

Also it might be a good idea for SOAA to hack into a repair droid, and maybe a light mec* or two, just so that she has backup in case her default body does, somehow, get damaged, or if it short-circuits, or fails, maybe a porter droid to carry the spherebot back to undergo repairs after a battle is over.
Just your friendly neighborhood gay boy! =)

Welcome back Litrary, glad to see you're ok! And happy New Year everyone*

Wel*, as for sci-fi, I have 1 sci-fi story here in this forum, dealing with biomechanical androids, who are mechanical but neither robotic nor computerised. Instead, they naturally grow machinery, in some strange way. Their bodies are something in-between flesh and metal, and they can repair themselves by using body parts or other parts of machinery. Their nerves, muscles, tendons, skin, ligaments, and whatnot, can open up and adjust to new parts.

I have re-used these HIPerians in Flames of a Broken World, which is on Wattpad and FictionPress; my username on those sites is JonathanKonopka. HIPerians is an abbreviation of High Intensity Perians, as they were created by a company called Perian, who titled the kind of super heavy "tank android" after their company name. They are a kind of high intensity combat android that wears tank armour shaped to be like medieval plate armour, with an arm consisting of a gun with revolving blades around the barrel rim to grind people apart, break body armour.

In Flames of a Broken World, there is the Mainframe, a supercomputer with an AI, which does sometimes order the deaths of people, ordering cyborgs to kill them or launch neutron beams to kill with radiation poisoning, but also wants to take those killed and recreate them into cyborgs. The Mainframe wants to make people, living and corpses, immortal through robotics, considering that the post-apocalyptic world is running out of food, water and energy, and so this is it's last attempt at saving humanity yet it first must kill people or let them die.

Emo, are these two examples good enough for your sci-fi thread despite the absence of post-21st technology? (presuming that cyborgs become a reality in this century)

C'mon, Annie. Every time you say that, it is essentially asking everyone to make your character for you since all that ever happens is you take exactly what they say and make it into a character. Taking suggestions isn't bad, but I know you have the ability to think up something like this on your own. Done in by the dubious doings of destiny.
