[AV] Mechtech

This is my love letter and content addition for the mechanitor playstyle of the biotech DLC. Ever since the Biotech DLC's release I've dreamed about having a real mechanitor colony. This (and my other mods) are the try of making that a reality.

This mod is mainly about:

• controlling how you want to develop your mechanitors. A few skilled ones or a whole colony of low-skilled mechanitors? Choose how to spent your boss-mech-chips!

• adding a few unique mechanoids

• adding mechanoid based neutroamine production and additional useage

• anything I deemed cool enough to put in here

The content of this mod is subject to my liking, it will get tweaked, changed and expanded over time.

Mechanoids

Militors and scrapper can now use mortars just like normal colonist (select the mech and right click the mortar).

Entities

Mechanitor's Tools

Pre-Neutroamine production and industries

Subcored implants

A few implants to control body temperature/pain/robustness with the disadvantage of interference with the immune system.

Subcored clothings

Subcored clothings biocode themself to their first user.

Others

DLC based content:

• with Royalty: new mortar types for clusters

• with Ideology: companoid sphere, royal lancer, hightech collar

• with Anomaly: reshaper, sinistre

Inbuild mod interactions with:

• [AV] Mechanoid Orbital Traders

• [AV] Mechanoid Spots (outdated 1.5 version)

CE?

Thats up to them. Currently CE has its own integrated patch for this mod. I don't have anything to do with it.

Can this be safly added to an ongoing save?

Yes.

Can this be safly removed from an ongoing save?

Probably, with the usual one-time errors for removing a content-adding mod. Back up your saves just in case.

Me, myself and I. Carbonpanel retexture is based on Erin's Body Retexture (with permission), check out her awesome mods! Special thanks to the unofficial rimworld discords modding-channel, the people running it and its precious search function. Without this awesome community this mod would not exist.
