Engineering team

from Offworld Forums

New mechanic to add veriety.

Player has 1 engineering team, that builds/sraps/repairs buildings. Team shoud travel across the map just like transport.

It will not allow players to instantly rebuild entire base, and early game will be much smoother.

Here might be some exceptions:

- Self-deployable buildings. Like farm right now. Quarry might be self-deployable.

- Some way to increase amount of engineering teams.

- Some HQ might have advantage. Second team or constructing without teams at all. Or constructing buildings, connected to HQ, without team. Repairing and scraping without team (robotics e.g.).

P.S. Inspired by little repair drone.

My initial impression was that this was about repairing a building, and we already have the delay with the repair drone.  Then I read it again, and I understood that this might delay switching over mass amounts of your base, or even the initial fast build.  Might not be the bad idea that I thought it was on first glance.

I only posted here to make sure others didn't make the same mistake I did.
