Robust Mechanoid Chips

Description
Description
This is a rework of the way that the mechanoid chips are handled from the boss mechanoids.
Instead of dropping the moment the mech dies, these very important chips remain safely inside the mech itself, ready to be freed from their metal prisons.

By smashing or shredding the mechanoid corpse you can get the chip for use. Just be careful, destroying the corpse can still loose you the chip!

If you want the functionality previously used where the chips are simply indestructible, please take a look at Unbreakable Mech Chips.

Known Issues
There are no known issues.

Compatibility
The mod has been tested in a heavily modified save and I have not found any conflicts.
Support has been added for Alpha Mechs.

Future Updates
No updates planned!

About
This mod has been created by me, SpaceMoth! A mod I quickly put together after loosing yet another chip after daring to use explosives to take down a hostile boss mech.

This mod is available on GitHub[github.com] with the GNU GPL v3 License[choosealicense.com] so please feel free to take a look to help develop your own mods!

I will aim to update my mods within a couple weeks of any major update!
Please feel free to suggest ideas of additional mods. New mod creation can take some time but I am welcome to ideas. Please note my skills are in scripting and coding, and I have very little ability when it comes to art and assets.

This mod does some funky stuff to the new Vanilla Vehicles / VFE Mechanoids mod. Seems to break context menu, after one comes back from a caravan. Really inconsistent though.

Still thanks for all of your work! :munchies:

You are amazing, thanks!

Support for Alpha Mechs has been added!

Would it be possible to get a patch for Alpha Mechs, so that the bosses added by that mod follow the same system with the regular bosses from this mod?

indeed, the cratering was successful, and it didnt fully destroy the mech, good mod regardless

Please note I have drastically changed the functionality of this mod. Mech chips now remain inside the mech until it is shredded or smashed at a crafting spot or machining table. Another mod exists for the previous functionality.

This'll be handy, while the 4000lb bomb I dropped on my first boss didnt kill it, I've been gearing up for another boss and plan to crater this mf one with a 21000lb bomb, hopefully this will stop me from wasting the steel, and the fool on the other end

Fair enough, I had missed that! I'll work on the update mentioned to have them extracted from mechanoids, to make this mod different. :)

theirs already a mod for this btw https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2883982082

I do agree, and thinking that might be what I'll update the mod to do. Friend or Foe, you'd want the chip if shredded. Just might make things more complex before you get the machining research (although can still smash at a craft spot).
