Suggestion : Vehicle Factory + Modifications
Hello there,

Copy paste of the discussion thread done in the Mechs mod page :

Long time ago I've created the thread for a Vehicle Factory suggestion, that adds lots of cool features and mechanics

I've recently updated it - you can use those suggestions to create the mod ( or another modder can do the tricks ) in the future :

http://community.playstarbound.com/threads/vehicles-factory-new-system.64613/

---------------

Some of the suggested mechanics can be implemented in your ZZ Mech Modification ! Have a check ;)

I think it is a little too much. ZimaZang only mades new mechs as I know. But maybe it is a good idea to make some jeeps.
P.S. There's already Pete the Penguin who sells vehicles. But a custom showroom may be cool.
HEY! I have an idea! Maybe make a test track/shooting range for jeeps/mechs so we can test mechs before buying them. @ZimaZang Can you make a shooting range like thing for mechs?

Yup I know !

The suggestion can be forwarded to someone else that can do the job, or hope the Devs create it

Mentioned also Pete, but as u said, the " custom showroom " to craft stuff would be really cool !

Under custom i mean a mod mission (like the ZZ's ship) but like a showroom where you can try the mechas a little. Like you can explore a part of some planet and shoot some punch bags (like in hylotl cities.) with any mech, but without controllers so you can't steal it.

Ooooh, oke, sorry - misunderstood :P

But yeah, can be a good sugg. that one - creating a small planet that you beam there via a teleport inside ZZ ship, is easy to do ( imo )

Yeah, from ZZ firs time, then maybe from ZZ's ship or your own.

Don't know if a testing room is possible or not, but had plans to try and add broken down mechs to the wild that can be repaired.

Under "testing room" I mean a mission that beams you to a place like the baromn's keep where you can shoot at the "punch bags" and try to break some walls. All mech vehicles already stay there, but without a controller so you can try 'em

Figured as much, the only problem is that I'm not sure the game allows me to place vehicles via a dungeon config. It may have to be something like an object where you press a "Spawn Vehicle" button and it spawns. But even then, I'm not 100% sure how that could be handled, as there technically wouldn't be a way to despawn them unless the instanceworld was reset (going to the main menu, or restarting the game).

That seems like it would be cool, but you'd want them to be set to certain tiers, so someone doesn't end up getting a theta right of the bat.

You could make it where the mech is in a different controller, in acontainer, maybe, where it will give you a specific mech when you repair it. If you put a controller in a chest you could make it seem like a crashed drop pod or the like, and then people could get to repairing the mech.

i would totally love to have a crafting station for these things, mostly because i have to go through hell and back just to get pixels and not lose them. plus it would make sense
