Progression: Robotics

Hey this is a great mod i like it very much. it works very well for me, almost 400 mods and CE included which is saying something.

Is there any chance you add integration to The Dead Man's Switch mod?? it has its own progression with its own mechs and stuff, also its own versions of androids which are called Synths.

Would be nice if possible. It makes sense if its not worth to even try it, there would be too many mech variants maybe, but its cool to see different factions come with different alternatives to similar concepts and have them cohexist in the same world.

I genuinely could not get this mod to work.

I’ve tried moving it in the load order. I’ve tried loading it alone with only the prerequisites.

Just did not work for me. I don’t know how to properly do a bug Report But if somebody could tell me how that would be great.

I think the difference is building a robot yourself and needing to figure the whole thing out versus having a magic machine in your head that lets you tell nanomachines to become a robot. Like, it's not "video game sense" it's more "real world sense". The better option isn't always the hardest or most expensive one.

@Smxrez I agree with you on that. drone costs should be adjusted.

Putting that aside im a big fan of what this mod does it just feels right

The workdrones are more expensive to produce by a long shot when compared to mechs
To make a hauler drone you need motorized and advanced components along with plasteel
Comparing this to a mechanoid hauler its a few components and steel
If you want the VFE Mechanoids workdrones to come before biotech mechs the prices need to be reduced imo
Im also not sure about how good they are or not but obviously the workdrones should be weaker too

does this mod have its own research page?

@lol Slow the game's progression, make the differences between similar elements clearer, and make everything feel more intentional in design.

The progression mods' main aim is to change research prerequisites and naming, right?

v5 - Mechanoid component is now called "Motorized component" to remove all 'mechanoid' ties to the workdrone tech category, also fixed combat workdrones specifically not having appropriate labeling
