Just wanna say that this is a highly enjoyable mod. It takes a while to get used to, but it sits just perfectly in that nice spot between LogiBots and Bus-builds.

I highly enjoy playing with them. Thanks for making this, Klonan!

yes, i enjoy the drone-trinity too :
- using construction drones instead of cheaty flying earlybots or nanobots
- using mining drones instead of the repetitive and ugly fields of miners (for best effect using also "I, Robot" :-)
- and using this mod instead of bus/belts (belts only for local distribution to/from rows of assemblers), instead of vanilla bots (only construction bots in map view and personal delivery bots with the new personal logistics), and instead of LogiCarts (when i start missing them, steinio has reskinned this mod :-) ...

what do i use at all besides these three mods? ah, trains for very far distances (with LTN).
now missing only easy to use bulk loader/unloader depots to connect drones and trains :-) LOL
maybe Bulk Rail Loader can be used (not yet tested), and/or a modder can combine BRL and these depots? :-)
