I want someones opinion on this idea.
I was thinking back to techs in Starbound and came up with an ambitious idea, maybe I shouldn't make the cpu outfits and instead made a tech that turns you into the cpu of your choosing, with special abilities special to each one and fancy animations. If someone thinks this idea would be great, I will get to researching how to code it, and if anyone wants to help with the coding, post it in this discussion.

(English is not my native language, sorry if you don't understand ^^' )
This idea is great, I would love to transform my character into CPU, but it's really possible to code something like this ? And what skill slot should be replace ? (The spike sphere skill is very usefull and I don't know if it's possible to add a fourth skill slot.)
And if it's possible to transform with a skill, what this skill will do : Does it totaly transform your appearence or just add CPU wings on your back and change your clothes/hair ? And if it's totaly transform your appearence, I guess it's impossible for players to custom the appearence, so what about eyes of the CPU ? Do you keep the eyes the same on your screenshot or do you use eyes like the ningen mod ?

Edit : Maybe it would be best to have both the skills and outfits because some players want CPU as crew members :p

I have an idea of how to code it, I will combine copies of tech and vehicles with animation to do this. They will fly a tiny bit off the ground and have specialized skills depending on who they are for example Purple Heart will probably have like a dash slice special skill, like her skill Cross Combo. Uni would have like a skill to shoot a laser and Blanc would probably be able to smash the ground with her axe/hammer thing. They will also have a primary slice attack. Also if its possible, I will also add a special tech activating animation where a beam goes into the air and goes back down and dissapears to reveal your HDD form.
It also increases your stats significantly while your in your HDD form and will also drain your energy, fairly slowly but every attack and special skill drains it more.

Thats my idea for this.

While that does sound cool, I would prefer to have clothes and weapons, instead of it bundled under a tech. It would be cool to have both, but if its one or the other, I would prefer to have clothes and weapons instead of a tech.

Oh well then I will add both if you wish. Because I know some scenerios that would be fun to play like pvp with that installed and using those techs. Which CPU will win! Or Capture the Flag with CPUs

I just need to figure out how to code animations before I can get to work on this idea. Im currently testing code to see what works.

I was actually thinking this exact same thing, either that or making cpus their own species.

Hahaha I refuse to make them their own species as they would be in the exact same form at all times (technically)

This mod is actually nice but I am expecting the Lord of the Tsunderes gets its own hair

I'm sorry, but I dont have that skill in code to be able to do that. If you know how to do it, please tell me though. I would very much like to try that out

there is a mod called NPCspawner+ with that you can create your own npcs with the appareance and equipment you want
