Self repair armor?

[Ziron]

Can you get self repair armor without mods? It is hard to tell when people I watch use self repair armor if they are modded or not. Is this at all possible?

You can technically get repairs from crates but its often so negligible not going to be noticed. Otherwise, yeah mods.

Repairs from crates are just insta repairs though right? what about self repair with time?

[Bovril Brigadier]

As mentioned, mods.

I have all the DLC's, would this be the most recommended for such a thing?

AFAIK the only way to get self repairing armor is through mods. YAML has an optional mod called Yet Another Equipment Collection. This mod adds in Black Carapace and Harjel armors that self repair after taking damage for a set amount of time.

would be cool if there was a module or hardpoint that you can trigger to deploy a drone to repair your armor on the fly. downside is you need to power off your mech while the drone does the repairs.

What would you prefer though, a drone system that's VERY limited in what repairs it can do (it can't repair armour that's gone and same goes for structure plus it can't rearm your mech and a drone system that can would weigh a lot more than a couple of tons) or a mobile repair base vehicle that hangs way back and has the ability to replace whole sections of armour (but not structure, that's a mech bay thing) if its missing or just needs repairs and can rearm your mech in a relatively secure area?

I mean, repair bays already exist, they should just put 1 in every biome somewhere.
