Heals all crew-members within the Medbay room. Upgrading increases healing speed.
If the medbay is full and additional crew need urgently healing, the room can be over-filled by walking additional crew back and forth across the room.
Engi Med-bot Dispersal augmentation is not affected by Medbay upgrades. It just needs a powered medbay, and always heals at 25% of level 1 medbay speed.
The medbay only heals friendly crew, so fighting boarders inside your medbay is advantageous. Boarders can be herded into it by selectively venting other areas, as they flee rooms without oxygen. If your crew are mind-controlled in the medbay, it will not heal them; likewise, your medbay will heal mind-controlled enemies.
A level-2 hacked medbay can kill all crew trapped inside (except full-health rockmen?). Trapped enemies will immediately try to escape a hacked medbay, so ensure the door isn't broken.
In Advanced Edition, the Clone Bay is an alternative medical system. Buying a medical system replaces your existing one, but you keep any upgrades.
