1. Has its own invertory, in which you can fold conventional remotes
2. When in hand - the behavior is identical to a regular remote control, but the shift + mouse wheel allows you to switch between the remotes folded into the invertory of this remote control (like blueprints in book)
What is this mod for:
You can say "just tell the spidertron to follow the other." Yes, it works and you only need one remote control for one such command. But what if there are 3 such teams? ten? For example, I have a group of spidertrons for building solar panels, a group for building a railroad, a group for building a reactor, and so on. 12 such groups of different orientations. And I want more. Too many remotes in the invertory
Switchable spidertron remote
Re: Switchable spidertron remote
AAI kind of has that iirc. At least hotkeys for 10 groups. And you can even circuit control vehicles so you could program them to go from solar farm to solar farm. Or automatically move as row after row of solar farm is build.

I prefer not to change the game too much. I play as close to vanilla as possible. AAI for me is quite a lot of changes
