    Title: people in robot suits
    Reproduction Rate: 100%
    Blocker? hmmn.. I suppose not.

    Details: I was examining the friendly automaton banker in Greyacre and was shocked to discover he is a man in an automaton suit! Not only do his gears NOT move (clearly broken).... He also breathes. Who are these phonies that hide amongst us in the guise of innocent robots?





    Steps to Reproduce: Find an automaton anywhere!!

    The gears are for their empathy functions. As you can see, they either have none or choose not to use them. As you state, though, automatons have no need to breathe. The function you see is purely an aesthetic choice by this model's creator for them to appear more lifelike. The previous versions lurked a little too much like mannequins, scaring the children.
