Personal Jetpack for Base Navigation

Post by Avarant »

Mainly for late game, when your base is packed with belts and factories. The belts affecting your movement is cool and all, until you've packed so much stuff into an area that navigation can get tedious.

Could potentially be added with oil/fuel if that gets put in.

LOL, if I can recall that far back correctly I believe this was mentioned on the indiegogo page, if so it will (eventually) be in the game :)
If it wasn't on the indiegogo page I know i've seen it elsewhere (it's been awhile), so it'll still be in the game eventually :)

This would actually be really cool. It gets really annoying trying to navigate a really compact factory setup.

Yes it does. You could easily remove the collision box from the car (or add a new one) and then you wouldn't be able to hit anything, effectively 'flying'. Same way I did the bomber mod on the wiki, and I made a mod for Ilnor that added a bike (for use before getting the car) and ended making a 'hover bike' as well, but the graphics are not all that great :) So there are options if someone really wants the ability right now.
