Minor Racial Traits

[Fyron]

My mechanoids aren't emotionless! They are thinking of automotons and not just robotic forms in general.

"mechanoids... emotionless"

Do androids dream about mechnical sheeps ?

Sorry about the misquote, I've not Dick' (duhh, might be wrong about the author too ) book right here.

Fyron:
Supposing that I don't want to download Adamant Mod just to have a peek at the Mechanoid trait , would you mind summarizing the trait from that mod? Thx a bunch.

Oh, and over in P&N (Version 3c rev 7 I think) SJ introduced some cool traits, some of which cost negative research points (I think one was called environmentalist or something like that. You end up having 40% less storage per planet because your race likes undisturbed streams and the like) I thought it would be great to have strip miners and slash and burn farming facilities, etc. Maybe "Locust Mind" or something. you'd get a lot of resources out of the facility or components, but they would all reduce the planetary value by 2, 3 or even 5% per turn.

You can go to the Adamant web site:

Though that doesn't tell you what the items do that the mechanoids get.

Mechanoids: Expanded from the normal game to include Mechanoid Bridge, Mechanoid Immunity Lab, Mechanoid Labor Force, Efficiency Algorithm, and Programing Language Research Computer.

Mechanoid Bridge: Repairs some components and provides Psychic Cloaking.
Immunity Lab: Plague prevention 1-5.
Labor Force: Cheap low tech facility that provides 5-15% increased resource production in the system.
Efficiency Algorithm: Provides up to 15% attack and 10% defense bonuses, stacks with sensors and ecm. 20 kT
Programing Language Research Computer: Improved System Computer Complex.
