Operators are robots encountered on Talos I during Prey (2017).
Overview
Edit
Operators are robots that operate Talos I in more tedious tasks: doctors, engineers, scientists, secretaries, etc. However since the outbreak of Typhon aliens on the station they, like many of the other inhabitants of the station, have since fallen victim of the resulting chaos with some of them being damaged or being possessed by the Typhon.
Design
Edit
Operators are roughly rectangular shaped floating robots that have small robotic arms coming out of them. They were designed to perform menial tasks on the station such as repairing the station crew's suits, healing them of injuries, and restoring their stamina. Military Operators are outfitted with offensive weaponry, such as beam weapons.

Strategy
Edit
For a large portion of the game, it goes against Morgan Yu's best interests to destroy or fight against the floating machines. Depending on what type of operator they are, they are much needed aid for Morgan and his efforts. Depending on what the situation is like with their inventory making the trek back to an operator with what Morgan needs might be better than using up valuable space in his inventory or using precious healing items.
That said once the Operators do start breaking down, dispatching them might be Morgan's only choice. However with the Machine Mind, EMP charge and Repair skills Morgan can turn these rogue operators into precious few valuable allies Morgan has on the station.
Commonly the Operators required lv 2 to 3 hacking skills if Morgan want to hack it intact. Military Operators however requires lv 4 Hacking to serve as allies.
They can be handy when fighting in group, even Nightmare cannot withstand hordes of Military Operators, often becoming confused.
