Are you able to add nano emiter to the spidertron engineer for nanobots compatibility?
It would be great to have a way to use them maybe in SE mk2.
For now when you use that mod you can make nanobot ammo but without emiter they are useless.

That should be possible. Thanks for the suggestion!

Another call for this. Just started a new game to check it out and was sad to not have the nano emitter.

Hi, I just tried to add this and I made the spidertron engineer have a nanobot gun, but it didn't seem to use it (even when all the building items were in the spidertron's inventory). This isn't really something I can fix, so I encourage you to experiment with spidertrons yourself and if you agree with my conclusion, then submit a bug report to nanobots.
Thanks

I've included my changes in 1.6.2, but like I said, I don't think that it works on Nanobots' side.

Added a thread to the Nanobots discussion page for this.

This is a pretty heavy change on nanobots end. But I have added it to the feature request list. https://github.com/Nexela/Nanobots/issues/114

you can access your character's gun slots through the character tab on your inventory and slot a nanobot dispenser into it, and it will work perfectly from there.

@GeekBeam how did you get an extra nanobot dispenser? I can't build one because the item is disabled with this spidertron mod (like all other guns).

I went out of my way to disable the method that removes guns and armor on a personal copy of the mod. just commented the method so it returns nothing when called.

I'm going to add a 'compatibility' mode which turns off all of that shenanigans in the next update :)
