Description







Disclaimer
As a fair warning, this moves the mechtech portion of the game later down the line. I personally think this is a good thing and lengthens the intrigue of a colony, but if you disagree maybe don't get this mod.

Other tweaks
  • Made the auto-hauler slightly slower to make it an even worse option
  • Mechanoid components are now "Motorized components" to remove mechanoid ties

Best paired with
- Automation Category, merging all buildings related to automation into a single category replacing "Factories".
- Biotech Category Re-examined, moving things not related to the "Biotech" concept outside of it

FAQ
  • Save game compatible? | Should be basically fine. If you add it post research, then things'll just be a little wonky in terms of progression but you should be fine in terms of like the fabric of the game itself.

Compatibility
  • Alpha Mechs
  • Anything in my fernworld modpacks
  • Practically any mods. This is just patches.

@Fiendix It works ok, use the wall conveyor for factory output gathering, right now the normal conveyor can not be place directly under the factory output tile.

how well does the conveyor mod work with VFE: mechanoids?

v8 - added conveyor belts patches

so I decided to give this another shot, yeah it doesn't work or atleast it doesn't work with Steping Stones, major problem being that Workdrones are Spacer when Mechanoid are industrial

where are the mechanite pants and underarmor, anyway? Did you forget to put them back in after the reshuffle? because they arent where the game is telling me they are.

I also agree with rebalancing the cost of workdrones to be more accessible early game. This would make a solo/hermit/low pop run more viable

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.
