Construction Vehicle with Roboport

[Gandamir]

TL;DR

Add a Construction Vehicle with a Roboport for automated construction.

What ?

I think a construction vehicle with a large inventory and a full roboport on it would make deploying large blueprints in remote areas easier. Stock it up on what you will need, drive out, and deploy.

Why ?

While personal Roboports do work for this, having a vehicle with expanded inventory (and logistics request capabilities) would simplify building when not expanding the Roboport network.

They added the abillity for mods to add an equipment grid to vehicles (Though it doesn't work on the fluid wagon), quite a few do, including my own. https://mods.factorio.com/mods/Bobingab ... eequipment

Though, you still need to equip the vehicle grid with a roboport.

I really hope equipment grids become part of vanilla with a few simple things for the vehicles like energy shields, batteries,solar, fusion reactors roboports, regenerative braking units, lazer turrets etc. I can only imagine that artillery trains will use grids with modules or perhaps it will be a train wagon/locomotive of its own with new graphics. Either way, please make vanilla items for vehicle grids since vehicle grids are already in the game (sort of.)

While mods may work, I play a lot with others so keeping mods in sync seems like a hassle to me. I feel this would be much better in the base game as it would solve both the construction and deconstruction (foresting) vehicles people have asked for.
