Add discharge defense remote and artillery targeting remote to shortcut bar

Post by ickputzdirwech »

What ?
Remove the recipes for discharge defense remote and artillery targeting remote and make them available via the shortcut bar
Why ?
Both remotes are things you only need to craft once. Both are very cheap and you need to have the ingredients already in large amounts to research them. It wouldn't really change anything if they were for free and it would save some inventory spaces.

I agree. Same philosophy as removing the pickaxe because it had little to no gameplay value.

In current status, I can have a standard combat shortut bar with arty, defence towers, ammo and battle bots. (yes, I use arty as close bombardment when I assault by foot) So it is on my screen only when I need it.
When arty becomes part of a side shorctut bar, it occupy space even I dont need it.

You can toggle which shortcuts you want to be displayed at any time. So it wouldn't take space from your screen or shortcut bar if you don't need any of the remotes. Right now they take inventory space however, even if you don't use them at the moment (doesn't matter if they are selected in the toolbar or not).
