VFE Mechanoids - Makeshift Robots
VFE Mechanoids add-on that adds makeshift robots, mainly for the earlier stages of the game. I was doing single pawn runs and noticed that almost all automation comes very late into the game. I wanted to make a mod that would help me automate cleaning, hauling and construction for the early game as well. I am not planning on expanding this mod all that much since I don't want to automate harder tasks, but these 3 tasks can be automated quite early into the game now.
NEW UPDATE - Added a maid bot, which is basically a broadcaster robot mixed with a cleaner. Its cute.
All 4 of the robots are very slow, consume a decent amount of electricity so you can't just spam them, especially in the early game, and they are rather bad at their work, meaning slow working speed overall. Regardless, this mod makes things easier of course. The bots can be made after a new research added in vanilla expanded tab, optionally you can also buy it from certain traders. It is rather hard to buy many of them through traders though, as I specifically made them rather expensive for how useful they are.
Requires VFE Mechanoids and VE Framework to function as almost all the code was supplied by those.
The Maid bot texture was made by DetVisor on discord. Great artist and very easy to work with.
NOTE: THE REST OF THE TEXTURES USED IN THIS MOD ARE VFE MECHANOID TEXTURES, RECOLORED. If there are any problems about the usage of the art in the original mod, I will do my best to change the textures. The reason I copied the textures for now is because I'm a disgusting artist.
If you like my mods or have any suggestions for this mod, or you just enjoyed the mod and want to let me know, please leave a comment, I appreciate the attention a lot! :)
Should be safe to add mid save and also should be compatible with every other mod out there EXCEPT LOCKS!!! Locks mod series change how the pawns are supposed to do pathfinding, so they break bots. Watch out for the mod.
