[Idea] Roboport as Equipment

[cooljoemeister]

How about a piece of equipment that allows robots to use yourself as a roboport? This would be extremely useful for constructing remote locations that do not have easy access to power for a roboport. Here are some ideas.

• Robots could use your inventory as a storage chest.

• Robots could "dock" into your inventory and charge using the power of your armor.

• Alternatively, require special robots which are temporary and can be generated with capsules.

• Roboport equipment would be rather large and take a lot of energy making it not easy to use all of the time.

Does anyone know if this is possible to do with a mod? I plan to get into modding and may work on this if there is interest.

EDIT: Turns out there is already a mod that does this called Pocket Bots: https://forums.factorio.com/forum/vie ... =14&t=4441
