Features

- 7 new mechanoids: The Aura, Daggersnout, Goliath, Phalanx, Siegebreaker, Fireworm and Demolisher make their return. The 7 mechs will appear in raids, clusters, etc, and they can be disabled separately through mod options.

- With Biotech: If the player has Biotech, a HUGE amount of content will be unlocked
- 26 new mechanoids, including 11 utility mechs, 12 combat mechs and 3 challenging (but not absurdly so) “boss” mechs
- 3 new mechanoid chips
- 2 new armors, 2 new helmets, 3 new utility packs and a warcasket
- 11 new buildings
- 8 new research projects to unlock all the content

- With Vanilla Factions Expanded - Mechanoid, plus Biotech: another huge chunk of content is added: 7 new mechanoids in two types. First of all, the “clean” versions of the Aura, Daggersnout, Goliath, Phalanx, Siegebreaker, Fireworm and Demolisher that appear in VFE - Mechs groups. Secondly, their advanced versions, which appear when mechs do a hardware upgrade. The player can also research a hardware upgrade to build these advanced mechanoids, as well as the Slurrymaster

- New mechs are added with: Vanilla Races Expanded - Sanguophage, Vanilla Genetics Expanded, Vanilla Fishing Expanded, Vanilla Books Expanded, Alpha Bees, and Rimatomics

I see, just read some similiar commend below, but never saw anythign regen that fast before :noshurt: it was regaining 1% or 2% in combat speed (i dont even own anomaly so my 1st time seeing something like that)
Sarg Bjornson  [author] 5 Oct @ 4:03am 
It has always regenerated, but it's regeneration is not very powerful. You might have another mod fucking things up
danzloblaha13 5 Oct @ 4:02am 
i dont remember Aura mech ever regenerating ??!! is that new update thing ? its so powerfull even if you shoot it with bunch of firearms it just wont die !! single lonely one almost killed 3 of my colonists even though random 2 mechs normaly die on my traps

It was a mod conflict I dunno with which mod, but after removing a bunch I realized I don't really use/need/were outdated the lifter burns bodies again, sorry for blaming your mod.

This mod doesn't touch Cremation bills OR lifters
Hugalafutro 2 Oct @ 8:28pm 
Hi, after enabling this mod my lifters stopped cremating corpses, I've seen there's specialized cooking/constructing mechs in the research, is there one that will do Cremation bills?

Was about to get a huge raid from an Empire quest, decided to call an Infernus, and try to time it so it Orbital bombed the raid for me. I call it half a day before the raid arrives, which turned out to be way too early. Reading the very explicit description, I tried to send my colonists to fight it outside my base. They all get lit on fire by the Polychorons, and are unable to even get in range.

In a last ditch attempt to save my colony, I cast a Skipshield psycast right in front of the Infernus. Turns out it actually fire an orbital drop signaler thingy, which does get blocked by said shield. The Barrage killed everything but the Infernus itself, which I also found is helpless in melee combat.

Can't wait for the other bossfights, 10/10 mod lol.

I'm sorry but when i was scrolling down the list of these impressive looking killbots then came upon the little forklift bro i couldn't help but laugh.

Imagining a tiny little forklift warehouse bot that's had enough managements sh*t and just snapped. Made my day :D
