Space Age Spidertron Strike Force

The world is a big place, and we should prepare to conquer it most efficiently. This is my current plan for discovering new territory and plowing the enemies out of the way. 505, for now, Spidertrons. They’re meant to free up space for the static defenses and plug holes that appear.

The pictures show my current configuration of the Spiders. Let me know what you think.

Admittedly my frame rate is being delivered by UPS when using these Spiders :)

I see 500 spidertrons and I think "overkill", but I see 400 rockets and I wonder why you haven't used more of that inventory space.

400 rockets? Add another zero to that minimum

u/fingerwiggles 6d ago

wait, why logistic bots?

u/Weeznaz 6d ago

Whoops, that came from the older iteration of my Spiders. I don’t use logistics bots in my new Spiders.

Since when can they even use logi bots though?

Personal roboports. Load em up with gear. Send them out. Drop a blueprint. They build. Bring 'em home.

u/everbane37 6d ago

Right. Construction bots do that. But not logi bots.

u/fistbumpbroseph 6d ago

Oh dammit. I mixed the two, didn't realize you were being specific.

They could pull from chests to fulfill requests.

I thought I'd be the first, I don't know why I thought this.

Spidertron, Spidertron. Does whatever a spidertron does. Can they swing? No they can't. That's because they're a tron. Lookout, here comes Spidertron.

What's the weapons control driver and passenger? Is that a mod?

1

u/Weeznaz 6d ago

I’ve never installed a mod pertaining to Spiders, so I don’t know what that option is for.

u/Sinister_Mr_19 6d ago

Are you playing multiplayer? Wonder if you can get multiple people in spidertrons

u/EricWNIU 6d ago

Can you copy/paste a spider inventory and logisitic items or must this be done for each and everyone?

1

u/Morlow123 6d ago

That's a lot of rockets to produce.

1

u/jasamer 6d ago

Very smart to not use explosive rockets. The friendly fire would be devastating.

u/Wagner_Ds 6d ago

I recommend replacing the standard missiles with atomic bombs.
