Addons for Cars (Plow, Concrete Layer, etc.)
Posted: Thu Aug 06, 2015 4:11 pm
The cars inventory would have a new slot for an addon. (Maybe the tank too)
New Addons: (All addons require the Car technology as a prerequisite )
Plow - Takes damage instead of the car when ramming and reduces the speed lost when the car has a collision. The car is 5% slower when used. - Req. Steel Processing
Concrete Layer - Similar to the Rail-Layer Mod, it will lay down stone bricks and concrete in its inventory. It can pull needed supplies from the car's inventory too (Hold Ctrl). - Req. Concrete
Med bay - Heals the player when inside the car. Probably shouldn't be free so maybe it uses a healing item. - Req. Military 2
Personal Roboport - Equip the power armor Roboport and the car will use construction robots in the car's inventory to build. Player doesn't have to be in car for this to activate.
Supercharger - Uses solid fuel to make the car go much faster and accelerate quicker when activated (Hold Ctrl) - Req. Electric Engine
Defense Deployer - Deploys Poison or Slowdown capsule behind car from the inventory to combat biters (Press Ctrl) - Req. Military 3
Drilling Unit - Drills for ore under the car using fuel; deposits ore into the car's inventory (Hold Ctrl) - Maybe useless past early game, but I thought it was cool. - Req. Steel Processing
