I had to unsubscribe and then subscribe again to ensure the workshop actually updated your mod, but this is perfect now thanks!

@Armedwithpuns can you check if the update fixes your bug?

UPDATE: Fixed the persistence issue! The fix should also fix any saves that got borked by the bug too, so you don't need to start a new game!

Hopefully will have a fix for the persistence bug by the end of the week, sorry about that folks.

@Armedwithpuns Nah I checked, I can replicate the bug. I *think* I have an idea to fix it, but I'm having trouble with it.

I do have your mech pack loaded higher on the list, so maybe it's overriding some important changes?

@Armedwithpuns hmm, I thought I fixed that bug, will look into it.

I really like the idea of this mod, however I tried to manufacture them in the production tab, and then passed a day I now get this error when trying to pass more days or even look at the production tab at all:

Fixed a long standing bug with the research time. Sorry, it's mean to take 14 days, not 1!

Nice! Thanks for the hard work Skaian

I managed to fix the persistence issue! Unfortunately you'll likely need to make a new save in order to actually benefit from it.

Fixed a crashing issue.

thank you i will be trying this

@Ghostlemon (cont) If you want to edit where in the tech tree this is in, it's a bit more complicated. Open up Mech Engineer and go to the research panel, and press F6. This opens up the debug interface. For each research, check the small white number in the upper left of each research item, this is the item's research number. Back inside obj_research_panel.lua, you can change the line underneath the comment "set link from other research", specifically the first number inside the bracket. Change this to your desired research item you want this to branch off from, add 1 to that value because of lua weirdness. You can check if your changes worked by reloading the game (make sure your new copy of the mod is loaded).

@Ghostlemon you can! You'll need to go to the folder the mod is located in (it's in the mod description). Make a copy of the mod folder as Mech Engineer overwrites workshop mods on every load, then inside the copy go to the Research folder and open up obj_research_panel.lua. Once you're in, change the entry that's labeled "require days" to the number of your choice.

am i able to change the research time etc, if so where can i do that since i am having trouble getting very far in the game

im having a skill issue

Updated for 1.0! Still working on the persistence issue unfortunately.

All good, love these little guys! they go well with mass scalene's from your other mod when i'm doing the post game cleanup

Hm, that's odd. I'll have to look into that. Thanks for bringing it to my attention!

Nice Mod!

Noticing on save that all my drones get replaced with borg bobs, seems the persistence isn't working?
