The one and only plushy mechanoid — Prototype Mecha "Yexiaoyang".
More than just a quadrupedal mech with an adorable appearance, Yexiaoyang is a growth-type platform with limitless evolutionary potential.
Through a dedicated tech tree, you can upgrade it step by step from a basic mechanical frame into a legendary, all-powerful entity.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
[b]Key Features:[/b]
1. [b]Join Mid-Game:[/b]
Introducing Yexiaoyang, a fully customizable quadrupedal prototype mecha (requires Biotech DLC). Can be added to existing saves—just install a Mechlink Core to activate.
2. [b]Not Your Average Robot:[/b]
Yexiaoyang can wield any weapon like a regular colonist, perform any type of work, and even upgrade its own skills through advanced research.
3. [b]Dedicated Tech Tree:[/b]
A complete, standalone research tab titled "Prototype Mecha: Yexiaoyang" featuring dozens of upgrades: health, armor, mobility, skills, weapon systems, caravan capabilities, carrying capacity, and even... soul ascension.
4. [b]RimWorld: Become Human:[/b]
Unlock the Autonomy Protocol to grant Yexiaoyang a full personality matrix, enabling all colonist work types and solo caravan leadership. A trader who doesn’t eat, drink, or consume power—moves fast, carries mountains, and thinks like a demigod. Even your super-intelligent pawns might get jealous.
5. [b]Craftable Weapons:[/b]
Reverse-engineer and build the legendary Imperial Hellfire Cannon, then upgrade it into the instant-cast Superintellect version—a devastating endgame-tier strategic weapon.
6. [b]Rebirth System:[/b]
If Yexiaoyang is ever destroyed, fear not—you can research its Core Recovery and reconstruct a summoning beacon to bring it back to life.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yexiaoyang can be added mid-game. The activation trigger is installing a Mechlink on any colonist. Once installed, the prototype unit will immediately drop into your colony—even if the mechanitor existed before the mod was added.
It starts off relatively weak, but can be enhanced through research. The tech tree is very long and can support progression well into the late game. When fully upgraded, Yexiaoyang can even withstand Glitterworld Destroyer, but its wealth value will become a concern.
The mecha can perform most tasks right from the start, and as research progresses, its skill levels will gradually increase, eventually reaching level 20.

Autonomy Protocol: Grants the robot a full colonist template, allowing it to independently form caravans, trade, and carry out missions.

With energy system upgrades, it can operate in a tireless, sleepless, and sustenance-free state—marching 24 hours a day without rest.

With dedicated world map enhancement technologies, it can single-handedly haul 1000 kilograms of cargo for trading, effectively serving as half a vehicle mod.

Health points, armor, and movement speed of body parts are all well-balanced. In combat, Yexiaoyang is equally formidable.
(Since the base game has a mechanic where damage over 150 points instantly kills a pawn, Author has locked this limit in the C# code. Yexiaoyang’s health is not subject to the 150-point death cap, while others still follow the original game’s rule.)

Added a crafting process for the Hellsphere Cannon.
The experimental version is the standard Hellsphere Cannon with a +22 shooting range (originally 18 tiles, modified to 40 tiles). The advanced version features an 80-tile shooting range and 50% reduced aiming time. However, the materials are expensive and the wealth value is very high.
