Portable Crossbow Turret

Description
This mod adds in a late game varient of the crossbow.
This crossbow will be free to create and is instant but to research you need a lot of materials.
Requirements
Level 5 research bench
x3 Ancient Science Book
x6 Iron plates
x4 Electrical Components
x2 AI Cores

Notes
This mod does not add a weapon as in a sword but it will add a new building that can be built anywhere except for in towns. This means that multiple can be built and so they are very late game since they are quite op. They build instantly and cost nothing except the research materials.

I added a new game start that adds a guy who knows how to craft the crossbow at the start but he has no other weapons so use him wisely.

Hmm that's a good idea, I'll look into doing that if I get to it. I believe that they may be adding capability for ranged weapons soon so I can make more stuff then

Hey, a simple sugestion: the bedroll is a "building" that requires a material: the bedroll itself in item form, which is produced in a fabric workbench.
I'd sugest adding a recipe to the robotics workbench to create an item named "Portable Crossbow".
Then add that item as a cost for this building.
That means you'd need everyone to carry their own crossbows with them, kinda like bedrolls nowadays. Make them heavy so you need to think up if you want to bring in heavy artilley or reserve space for loot.

i was wondering if u could make a mod that actually makes crossbow bolt and harpoons do the damage the should.

as i find it rather annoying that someone with the right armor can lose blood with out barely getting damaged yet have a massive harpoon go thru to the other side with out complications. i mean yeah paladins are tough and ppl have survived worse but after 10 center stomach and 6 in the chest all thru and thrus ur not gonna have an "Okay" anything where theres that many harps or even bolts.

I made this free building becuase a very requested mod was ranged weapons. Since those are not possible atm I thought that makign this would be the next best thing.
I also made it pretty hard to make as a way to stop spamming them early game.

It's a good concept but why is it a free building? There are plenty of things that could be used as the materials -- gears, building supplies, et cetera

agree , but if this component was easy to find the kenshi world would already have drones flying all around shouting cannibals and leviathans alike XD

Yeah...I did already 2 expeditions...covering the whole area in the North East...and only got 2 AI in 2 different playtrhough....I had to download that Book Mob so you can make them, althoug it require an immense grinding like back in WoW. there is couple of expolotations I could use, but I like to minimize the easy modes.
