Robotics Crafting Redux - Plus

Description
Did you know you can’t fully automate crafting skeleton limbs… until now?
This mod fixes that — plus adds a bit more!

🎨 Update: Complete Visual Overhaul 🎨
All storage containers now have their own unique look. Check out the screenshots — it’s so much easier to tell them apart.

🔩 Overview 🔩
Vanilla Kenshi struggles with fully automated skeleton limb crafting because the AI can’t handle multi-item containers, and there’s no dedicated storage for the final limbs.

This mod solves those problems by:
• Robotics Limb Cabinet – stores completed skeleton limbs
• Separate storage containers – for every robotics part: Hinge, Motor, Press, Robotics Component, Skeleton Muscle, and Skeleton Repair Kits

All new containers unlock with Storage: Robotics, available at Tech Level 1.
You’ll find them under STORAGE → Storage: Robotic Crafting.

The low tech level makes sense — you can scavenge these parts long before you can craft them, and let’s be real, slapping a label on a box doesn’t take a genius.

🤖 Utility Limbs Crafting 🤖
This mod also introduces a Tech 6 research called Utility Arms (requires 1 AI Core).
Once learned, it allows crafting:
• Steady Arm (left)
• Thief’s Arm (right)
These limbs exist in vanilla shops but were never craftable — until now.

At this point, you may be thinking: "Holy cow! Robotics research costs 14 AI Cores to unlock every limb type?? Isn’t it way easier to just pay 25,000 cats for Masterwork limbs in Black Desert City?"
And you’d be right! Which is why I present...

⚙️ Robotics Crafting Redux: Core ⚙️
A mod of my own creation. It changes some vanilla crafting costs and introduces a more streamlined, Redux-style system for robotics crafting... by adding blueprints!
"Wait, I thought you hated blueprint hunting?"
I do — for armor and weapons. But for robotics, blueprints make sense. Plus, research unlocks are still an option.

• It’s also part of the full Crafting Redux Series Collection:

🚩 Compatibility 🚩
• Extremely compatible — all storage boxes are new items.
• The only vanilla data is a minor prerequisite added to the Utility Arms research.
• Works perfectly with Robotics Crafting Redux: Core.
• Beep is also a skeleton.

💭 My Thoughts 💭
Blueprints... well, I actually do like hunting for them. Having reasons to visit cities and make purchases feels good — immersive, even.
If I could track blueprint progress, I might’ve left armor and weapon blueprints alone. But collecting hundreds of tiny 1×1 scraps? No thanks.

Selective blueprint hunting hits the sweet spot. If you want to try this approach alongside me, I recommend pairing it with Forgotten Buildings:

@hades-arcadius I went to make the patch today and found a mod that already does what you're asking for, so instead of flooding the Steam Workshop with duplicate mods, here is the link to the mod in question: https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2823044590

@hades-arcadius Yes! I should have time this coming weekend. I'll post again when it's done.

Could you please add a patch to add mirrored right arm steady and left arm thief for crafting?
