It's more intuitive: The first time I used the spidertron I thought I experienced a bug, because my equipments wasn't working. Then I realised that I needed to add a reactor. I figured that because it has two reactors in it's crafting recipe, that would be more then enough to also give some power to the equipments.
It's better balanced: I think the spidertron in it's current form needs a slight buff. I feel like the equipment grid is slightly too small, not allowing me to have as many exoskeletons as I would like etc. The portable fusion reactor is very large and takes up most of the space. So by removing the need for one I think we would free up enough space.
I think it would be reasonable if the "built in" reactor would output as much as one portable fusion reactor.

Re: Make spidertron power its equipment grid
Looks interesting. I'll probably use it if I'll do a modded playtrough. For now I'm only using quality of life mods in my current world. I like to keep it quite vanilla.NimbleJack021 wrote: ↑Mon Jan 11, 2021 6:51 pm exoskeltons? thats a weird way to spell lasers and shields

For me, this one IS a QOL mod The MK3 spidertron, while costly, is fantastic.wahlencraft wrote: ↑Mon Jan 11, 2021 8:41 pmLooks interesting. I'll probably use it if I'll do a modded playtrough.
