Rebalance Robotic Modules + tools
(08-15-2016, 11:46 AM)Noah Buttes Wrote: PROGRESS NEWS:

Work on borg-material implementation is still moving forward. I am working on making a bi-material system for custom robotic parts. One material will serve as conductive artificial muscles, nerves, and other soft tissues. The second material will form the metallic exoskeleton of the arm.

Basically, the idea is to have the two different materials affect different attributes of the part. The muscular material will have a strong impact on movement speed and power efficiency, but only a small effect on durability. In contrast, the exoskeleton will primarily affect durability and will only have relatively minor direct influence on movement speed and power efficiency. Additionally, the exoskeleton material will determine the physical appearance of the limb. However, both materials will have a strong impact upon the part's weight.

The goal is to prevent any one set of materials or alloys from being the absolute best while still rewarding people for going out of their way to get rare or obscure materials.

I appreciate any and all feedback and criticism regarding this system.

Sounds pretty darn cool, I like systems where there's no absolute best combo. Hopefully it means that the uquil-armoured murderous monster borg is easy to run away from.
