Overview
As any commander on the go knows, there is nothing more frustrating than having valuable and necessary equipment getting broken in-flight, usually just before you really need it. So the researchers at the Aquarian Shipbuilding Corporation's ships equipment division have taken the repair nanobots used on a large scale for station repairs, and adapted them for standard ship useage.
Usage
As standard, the repair 'bots are packaged in a small container which is specially designed to keep them dormant until their services are required. Due to Galcop rules this container is not allowed to be stored within the vessel itself, so the standard solution is to mount it on an empty missile pylon, with the added bonus that the standard missile arming and launching sequence can be used to activate and release the 'bots.
When activated the 'bots perform a scan of the vessels systems, and by comparing what they find with their in-build blueprints they can identify which (if any) system or systems are damaged. From this they will select which item they want to repair (this is limited to a single item as a further Galcop mandated safety measure to prevent runaway replication) and proceed to attempt work on it.
Please note that whilst these useful little creatures won't stop to take coffee breaks or chat-up the pilot's girlfriend, they are only as reliable as their in-build blueprints. So for more complicated systems and for some variant items sold by various companies, there is a chance that they will not be able to fully repair all items before their mandatory limited lifespan expires. In this case the useage of an additional cannister or two of 'bots may assist with the problem.
Requirements
This OXP requires at least test version 1.72 of Oolite.
Download
Repair Bots v1.10 can be downloaded from my webspace by clicking on the link.
Supported OXP Equipment
Currently the Repair 'Bots have blueprints for the following equipment, in addition to all of the standard build-in game equipment:
- Missile Analyser (Eric Walch).
- Fuel Collector (Frame).
- Bounty Scanner (Frame).
- Rock Hermit Locator (Frame).
- HyperRadio (Svengali).
- Emergency Energy Unit (Thargoid).
If you are the author of a piece of OXP equipment that you would like reviewed and where possible included for compatibility with this OXP, please submit your request and blueprints via PM on the Oolite BB.
