Cargo Mech

Description
This mod introduces a new mech designed for fast resource transportation. The mech requires an operator to function, but it can be operated by any survivor regardless of their skill. The mech doesn't receive or distribute resources while mounted.

The Cargo Mech has three ownership options which define who can use it:
[lis]
  • Shared: Everyone can deliver or take resources from the mech.
  • Owned: Only the owner can deliver or take resources.
  • None: All survivors are forbidden from delivering or taking resources.

You can customize the resources accepted for storage in the Restriction tab of the mech's info panel. To prevent survivors from delivering resources to the mech or making them unload the mech, you can use the "Keep empty" option.

The mod includes a new technology called Cargo Mechs, which allows the construction of Cargo Mechs using 3 CPU Cores, 1 Power Cell, and 100 Metal in all scenarios.

I would love a second tier of this which puts an AI core in it, essentially making it a mech that can move itself to where you need it.

Is the cargo mech moving faster than someone running ? In other words could it be used to move fastly to a distant place ?

For some reason I can't seem to be able to assign Laara to mount the mech. Even if I assign her ownership, even if she stands right next to the mech - some other survivor (Rita, Samantha) will always be drafted instead even if they are a lot further away.
Could it be that Laara's 0 combat skill is the culprit here ?

I don't understand how this is used???

I should walk it to an area... then unmount and somehow load nearby resources, then remount and manually walk the drafted survivor and mech back to base... where I mark it for emptying and repeat??? Is this correct?

Except Delivery Drones have a limited range, they wont go on the other side of the map for instance, while this can. Especially good for when you go hunting Nests

Pretty much pointless mod, now that they have Delivery Drones in the game.

Thank you, I've been fully engaged with Stranded ever since we started working on the project and still am.

I will investigate internally what's happening with these notifications. Thank you for letting me know about this.

on the game issue i mentioned it is wierd cuz i saw both messages in roughly the same situations
resources are being delivered or resources arent available but still after a few seconds/a minute you could go and finish the construction cuz the materials appeared.

np glad to see you are still involved with the game, are you on the stranded team or in the ja 3 game? I just found out the other week you guys did the 3rd one.

Oh, that's interesting. It's not caused by the mod, as I'm not affecting devices, storage sites, resource piles, or resource distribution in any way.

No idea why Steam insists on pinging you for comments :D
