Nanobot Build and Repair System

BaR Socket
I play on a “Cluster Server” that has several worlds. One of the rules there is that we can only have one “Build and Repair” unit per person across all of the worlds. This goes if you have one or fifty ships, one per player. It is a great server to be on so if that is what they want, that is what I will do. My idea for an upgrade to the mod would be to develop a single block that acts as a “BaR Socket”. The socket would hold all of the settings for the ship it was placed on. That way a player could move his BaR from base to ship and back again and never have to re-enter his settings for each unit. A Warship could be set to constant repair, or a Salvage Ship could be set to grind only with the “Area” pushed out in one direction so it could envelop the target. A socket on a shipyard could be set to build a ship in a specified area, while another socket on the same base could be set to repair the base. This would allow players on single BaR Servers much more versatility and save a lot of repetitive setup.
