Creeping Turret

Post by fishycat »

So I stumbled over this nice little guy and immediately had to think of factorio!

Wouldn´t it be nice to sit in it and creep towards bases and destroy them? :P
With higher tiers you maybe get faster and can add more stuff...

To be fair, legged robots make more sense for an alien world with rocks and hills and such.

There are rocks. We could always pretend there are hills.

Yes, legs are better on rugged terrain, but the technology is very complex, so expect limbed robots to be a late game development if they're ever developed at all. Even then expect drawbacks, as the extra surface area makes armoring limbs inefficient and difficult.

which is why you'll never see mechs replace real tanks on earth, since you can stick a lot more armor on a moving box, then a box with legs.
