armed/customizeable trains.

[troytech]

what if a train gets attacked en route to wherever its dropping its stuff off? what if you want electric trains? i think you should need to place a steam engine in a train if you want it to run on coal and an electric if you want it to run on electricity. also there should be hauling trailers that allow you to place structures on the car. like batteries and lasers or gun turrets. also i wish there were drones too.

I would be in favour of a power-armour-style train car where you can chuck in some lasers (should be the real deal however and not the pathetic portable lasers we currently have) or gun turrets, maybe some shields.

A roboport train (full size radius, compared to portable roboport, so it keeps the differentiation), with access to the train's inventory, would be seriously awesome. A builder-train could take it to a whole new level.

What do you mean by drones? We have lots of those options already (construction, logistics, defender, distractor, destroyer)

Those stuff is already suggested a lot of times!
See viewtopic.php?f=80&t=17734 New types of vehicles (train, tank, car, plane, ship...) ---> Look below trains

So I moved this to Suggestions.
