VRE Android - Auto Reactor Replacement Patch
This is a small patch for Vanilla Races Expanded - Android that adds automatic reactor replacement for android pawns through a convenient toggle in the pawn command bar.
Description
- Adds a toggle button for androids, including colonists, prisoners, and slaves
- When enabled, the android automatically starts the replacement cycle once its charge reaches the configured threshold
- The android goes to rest and waits for the operation
- After reactor removal, installation of a new one is automatically queued in the surgery bills
- If no suitable spare reactor is available, the process pauses until one becomes available
Features
- Configurable replacement threshold
- Configurable minimum spare reactor charge
- Configurable check interval (for optimization purposes)
- Optional: alert when no suitable spare reactor is available
- Optional: auto-enable for newly encountered androids
- Optional: toggle for VRE Androids surgery logic (in the original mod, if an android received a low-charge reactor through surgery, its charge would still become 100%. This allowed the same reactor to be reused infinitely by reinstalling it)
Important Details
- Only suitable and accessible spare reactors on the same map are considered
- Spare reactor selection is based on actual charge, not item condition
- If the option is enabled, a critical alert will appear when an android needs reactor replacement but no suitable spare reactor is available
- As soon as a suitable spare reactor becomes available, the alert disappears and the replacement process continues automatically
- This patch automates the regular surgical reactor replacement flow and does not replace the separate self recharge mechanic from the original mod
