Mechanoid Upgrades

This mod adds mechanoid upgrade mechanic. Now mechanoids can be upgraded in special building. Once installed, upgrade can only be removed in mech upgrader, removing takes the same time as installing process. Upgrades don't disappear on death or resurrection. Every upgrade have it's own advantages, but one mechanoid have limited amount of upgrades. One mech can have only one specific upgrade installed, but some upgrades have tiers that have different stat increases and different cost, you can check section below to aee all available upgrades.

Also I recommend to use Always Draft Your Mechs to make control upgrades better and Dubs Mint Menus to make search for bills easier.

Add-ons:
Mechanoid Upgrades - Anomaly — Anomaly related upgrades.
Mechanoid Upgrades - Archotech — archotech upgrades.



Some upgrades have tiers(marked with A, B, C), higher tier require more resources, but gives better buffs.























































To upgrade your mechanoid you need to research "basic upgrades" technology in the new research tab. When upgrades will be created by your colonists(even non-mechanitors can do this) mechanitor would be able to begin upgrade process in mech upgrader building. Only upgrades in connected to mech upgrader storages can be installed.


Q: Can I add this mod to existing save?
A: Yes, in most cases this mod should be safe to add to existing save. If you want to remove mod from save, make backup of save to ensure that nothing will go wrong.

Q: Is this mod compatible with mods that add new mechs?
A: In most cases, mod doesn't check for specific mech kind, instead it uses system of restrictions for each upgrade, that check if mechanoid could be upgraded. Also modded mechanoids that don't use mechanitor system, or don't inherit comps of base mechanoid cannot be upgraded. In first case there is nothing I can do, but in second I can create additional patch for this specific mech.

Q: Can I somehow decrease/increase amount of upgraded mechs in raids?
A: Yes, you can change commonality and amount of upgrades for mechs in mod settings, or totally disable appearing of upgraded mechs in raids.

Q: Can obtain upgrades not from crafting?
A: Yes, you can find them in ancient shrines or complexes, or get from quests. Also you can use Mechanoid Orbital Trader mod to buy upgrades from the orbit.

Q: Would new upgrades be added?
A: Yes, some of them will go into this mod, and some into the separate add-ons.

Q: Combat Extended compatible?
A: Yes, put this mod below CE in the mod list for correct work.
