This is a somewhat early version of the mod...also it's no longer being worked in, it's dead, go home.
I've made a sequel, I guess.
Leaving this up for those that somehow want to still use it
It should function without any major issues, but content-wise it might be a bit barren (by itself it only adds like 3 drones).
I’ll be adding more stuff later, once I’m sure the balancing is right because surprise, surprise, sticking two extra independently-firing guns onto a colonist may or may not be a bit trickly to balance correctly.
Content
This mod adds combat drones which pretty much function like mobile turrets that are glued to a pawn. Imagine Vanilla Apparel Expanded — Accessories’ Mini-turret Pack, it works pretty much the same ways, except these come in the form of an implant, not apparel.
Balancing
I’m open to suggestions, so this is all subject to change, but this is currently how it all works:
A maximum of two standard/medium drones can be installed onto a pawn at the same time, a maximum of four for the small ones (or 3 if you install 2 small and 1 medium one) and a maximum of one for the large ones (if I ever make any).
The stats are pretty much copied over from weapons/implants that the module is based on, so if they are based on a weapon, they should be as effective as a normal-good quality one...except they have doubled cooldown, for obvious reasons.
“Supported” mods (that cause additional drones to be added when they’re active)
-Vanilla weapons expanded
- VWE Non-Lethal
I’m open to suggestions when it comes to adding support for other mods or ideas for original drones. The only requirement is that the weapon should be unique enough (either have a unique firing mode or effect on hit), with every supported mod active there already is a ton of items being added, I’d like to avoid unnecessary bloat by not adding a “pistol #22435571” module.
Compatability
CE- I have not made any effort to make this mod compatible with CE, so it’s likely that at the time of me writing this CE is prooooobably not compatible with this mod.
