User:Jessietail/New Rock Raiders

This is a page for documenting everything I've picked up on what would make a better Rock Raiders mod. This will hopefully evolve into a tutorial page, but may become something else as well.

Building functions (needs to be 10 or less):

1. power station
2. landing pad - merged Small and Large Teleports, though requires more upgrades as a result. If the power paths are green tiles, will it require a flat space? Or will that make it impassible?
3. docks
4. air scrubber - Single-purpose 1x1 building with a reasonable cost. Does not feed or train Rock Raiders like the Support Station. Multiple of these buildings can be built, especially if vehicles and monsters use air too.
5. upgrade - possibly larger and more expensive? Vehicle upgrades should be more expensive too, to force resource management. Can repair vehicles somehow? Probably not
6. Ore refinery - make ore more rare?
7. defense tower
8. Tool supply and Snack stand should merge?
9. Lego teleport
10. Training could be condensed into a single building?
11. Drilling well???

Vehicle functions:

• Drill (small)
• Drill (big)
• Carry
• Water
• Flying
• Water Carry
• Rubble - Loader-Dozer-esque vehicle. Don't give it cargo upgrades like the Loader Dozer, or it will be distracted from shoveling - though the Loader-Dozer in the sets was meant to carry ore with its scoop, so.
• Carry (big?) - To prevent small carry from being overpowered like the Small Transport Trucks are.
• Air carry - Should only be available in certain levels, to not make the water carry useless. May also just cross lava. Problem: If it can cross land, it might try to deposit vehicles into the tool store?
• Defense
