Make mainframes buildable
#1
   
Mainframes (pic attached for clarification) currently cannot be built by players. Tapes, memory, databanks, consoles, and virtually every other component of a DWAINE system can.My suggestion is to make mainframes buildable by players in some regard.

Mainframes (in 2016 code) are fully operational upon being spawned, with memory installed, the OS loaded, and everything fine and dandy. Some hack solution would be required to make the station's (ship's) original mainframe work after being created while making player-made mainframes not work upon being created.


Mainframes when not used to run 4000 line shell scripts seem to be relatively performance-friendly, and can't do anything particularly egregious or unbalanced. I suggest this as something to keep hackermanz mechanic mains occupied.


note: Do mainframes store data per-entity or per-Z level? If the latter, provide more coffee to coders
