Suggestion
It's officially my favorite mod, by far. I was wondering if an future update would link each coilgun to both loaders so as to effectively double the ammo available for both and equalize the rate at which each ammo box is emptied. Also liking the most recent update, you're doing great work! :steamhappy:

Hey, thank you for your positive feedback! :lunar2019grinningpig:

The idea is good, but the bots did not replace the empty ammunition boxes during testing and held them in their hands while they continued to operate the persiscope.

I've noticed in general that bot pathfinding has gotten worse since the last patch.

But your suggestion gave me the idea of whether it is possible to create a loader with capacity for two ammunition boxes and how it would then deal with different types of ammunition.

Maybe I'll test it out soon. :cozycrashfish:

It works, but I want to get the signal lights working ... that can take time (as always).

Oh flip, that hadn't even occurred to me, that's a super clever idea! It's in line with the whole spirit of the Dugong Mk II, too. A combined loader / expanded loaders to improve efficiency, nice! Plus it's a great sprite :D Good luck with the wiring (it kills me every time)!

I can understand the pathfinding issue. The most common one I noticed was them getting stuck in security trying to fix the lower airlock pump, but at least it's mostly predictable stuff.

In addition to the new loader, I also made a super capacitor and coil gun.

A little more troubleshooting and then I'll update the content package. Then I revise the dugong.

I'm just not sure if I should install the double loader, the bots are too stupid with it. :jarate:
You then have to closely monitor the ammunition.
