[2019] Tired of manually repairing walls before bots? Not a problem with repair turrets!

Do they consume resource packs? Extra electricity when operating?

Delivering repair packs along with ammo seems like a reasonable challenge for something this useful, and you have to do this with bot networks anyways. Maybe make it a config option?

Wow I love it. But yes, the consumption is important here as it looks quite OP.

What is that limited by?

After all upgrades, they can even hold the line against behemoths: https://gfycat.com/widedesertedaltiplanochinchillamouse

Yeah, unless the ammo has been upgraded to uranium too, that is overpowered. Three lasers and a flamer wouldn't be able to hold that without repairs.

These towers are great. I love the fact their not op when the engagemet takes longer than 30s (after they have emptied out their internal power storage), they can only charge slow, they increase robot construction range and they get upgrades via techtree.

10/10 would use this mod again in my deathworld. Probably earlier than behemots...

Sidequestion for u/klonan

Can we get the "real visible bullets" change you did in your "Total Automation" mod as a stand alone mod ?

Is this game worth a go?

/u/Klonan is there a possibility that you make this mod compatible with Industrial Revolution? Since in IR they changed Repair Packs to the different ore Eras (copper repair pack, iron repair pack, etc)

Originally posted by Galbrain

That's true, but i can't craft them since there are no normal "repair packs" anymore, but those are needed to craft the repair towers.

Hey there. I loving this mod, but I have one small criticism. I got my builder bot army up to about 420 now and I'm using them to build lots of things, including placing concrete. They aren't very efficient at it though, it's a lot of labor. So they will frequently stop at roboports to power up. The problem is that these towers will also recharge the robots, except they are very slow at it and only charge one robot at a time. So I tend to have hundreds of robots sitting around the towers waiting for their turn to charge up.

If you could address this somehow it would be great. The way it is now I'd rather they not charge robots at all.

Just noticed one more thing: the robots are sapping all the power from the tower while they recharge, and the tower doesn't have enough juice to perform repairs.

Do the turrets focus on more heavily damaged objects or is it random?
