Description
100% Vanilla and survival unfriendly! That's right! You can't build this robot in
actual survival because of the rotors and the turret.^^

The Grenadier Mk.II is...well...the second iteration of our Grenadier type infantry
robot.What did we improve? We added more firepower and a cool new feature.

This robot can be used like our other robots via good old fashioned waypoints and
remote control block...or you could use the vanilla pirate AI script Keen uses for
their drones in the campaign.What do you say? The 'get nearest player' script
does not work for human players? True...it does not work for human players...
so yes you could use this bot as a pirate bot for target practice...or you could
create an NPC in your faction and give the ownership of this robot to said NPC
and viola! You got an allied robot following you around killing enemies on sight.
After all...the script works for NPC's only...nobody said they had to be enemy
NPCs now did they?

How to use:
---------------
Set the activation timer to your desired time setting (good if you want to use
the robot as an enemy for target pracitice), 'start' said timer and give the
ownership of all the robot components (via ctrl+a is the quickest method) to
your NPC of choice (faction allied NPC or pirate faction).

Weapons:
-------------
1x designator machine gun.
2x 'grenade' launchers.

Scripts:
----------
Whiplash:"Turret AI Slaving".
Keen:"Vanilla Pirate Drone AI" (modefied by Whiplash...he changed a line in the code a bit
...I didn't even ask him to do it he just did because he's a nice guy).

Addendum:
---------------
What if you think this robot sucks and you would like to do your own drone
instead?No prob!All you need is a remote control block (set to 'one way'),
a gyroscope,a timer,a programmable block with the vanilla pirate code
(steal this one out of shot down drone...or look in the workshop...should
be easy to get), a power source, directional thrusters (in all directions),
a turret weapon (otherwise the drone will go into 'retreat mode') and in
this case low friction wheels.Set the timer to start itself every two seconds
with the programmable block running on default as an action...that was
basically it.All the other stuff is pretty much optional.^^

Oh and as for the laser pointers...those aren't my idea.I stole them from
Inky after he had one shotted me with his sniper tank during the tank
battle event of March2018...as for the interior turret...yeah I don't know
how to place them on small grids myself (I took the gun off Inky's
Challenger 2 tank and saved it as a blueprint...which he probably also
took from Deathlok-L17...I think he knows how it works...I did ask him
once and did not pay attention. In short:Good ideas spread quite a bit
inside the tank group).^^

nope. this one is a modefied version of my grenadier that uses Keen's pirate script to either be your enemy...or if you give it to a friendly NPC in your faction a friend that follows you around. so if you place an army of these and rush your enemy.these things will follow and shoot everything in their path (themselves included if you are not careful).

Is that just a modified version of Krabby that I see?
