The Triage Module has the following effects when activated:
The Triage Module is the defining feature of a Force Auxiliary. The Triage Module has the following effects when activated:

The triage module's cycle time is 5 minutes, and it requires 200 - (level of {{sk|Tactical Logistics Reconfiguration|icon=yes}} * 25) Strontium Clathrates ("stront"). While it's active the FAX can't warp, jump, or voluntarily move in any way. (However, it the FAX is moving when it enters Triage, or is bumped, it will uncontrollably move in that direction until it drifts to a stop.) Force Auxiliaries are at their most effective with a triage module active.
The Triage Module immobilizes the Force Auxiliary to give it massively amplified local and remote repair abilities. The triage module's cycle time is 5 minutes, and it requires 200 - (level of {{sk|Tactical Logistics Reconfiguration|icon=yes}} * 25) Strontium Clathrates ("stront"). While it's active the FAX can't warp, jump, or voluntarily move in any way. (However, it the FAX is moving when it enters Triage, or is bumped, it will uncontrollably move in that direction until it drifts to a stop.)
 
When active, the Triage Module projects a rippling blue glow across the ship's hull, similar to the animation of an active Assault Damage Control.
 
The Triage Module does have a significant downside: while it reduces the cycle time of local and remote repair modules, it does not reduce their capacitor costs. This means that once a Force Auxiliary enters Triage, it becomes extremely capacitor-hungry to operate. Most pilots compensate for this by fitting multiple Capacitor Boosters, and consuming large numbers of cap charges.
