Combat automation (ultra lazy bastard)

Post by cpy »

Ok so there i am a true lazy bastard making my factory do everything except pressing next button on research... WHY do i have to push reseach button? Could use random research or anything.

How about we get some sort of combat roboport that deploys combat robots that seek and destroy those damn spitting bastards. :)
Could be flying robots, could be some automated tanks, whatever.

I think the idea to randomize the research is interesting/could be much fun, especially for mutliplayer.
Cool suggestion: Eatable MOUSE-pointers.

Automate clicking research :D
Could be some sort of hard mode or anything. Well bad prerequisite mod could stuck it but maybe some re-rolls would be allowable.

Maybe just reusable versions of the existing combat robot capsules, or a structure that can be loaded up with the existing capsules and automatically tosses them at the enemies when they get into range? I dunno. It's not a topic I think much about, given I usually just run back and forth with the flame-thrower when I need to clear out space.
