Anyway, thanks for re-making this, it's been done before and they are very useful.

Re: Weapon Dispensers Azukki wrote: Idea, needs some simple Lua though.
- Make a blank one.
- The user throws a sample of what you want it to create into it.
- It's then calibrated to create those.
- The gold cost of the device determines how fast it can generate them.
- Maybe have a means of re-calibration
Should be useful for any device ever. HDFs/HDs/TDEs
You could apply the same concept to other objects like actors and crafts too of course.
I'm assuming you can read the preset name and gold cost of un-held devices with Lua, am I correct? Yes and yes.

I did a Cloning Tube instead of a Robot Maker because if you had both a robot factory and a cloning tank, the cloning tank would be more useful (in terms of material and supplies) because all you need to do for the cloning tank is put in some human DNA, a small cell sample, nutrients, and that's it. You could even take matter from other clones for cell samples/DNA/food. For a Robot manufacturing machine, you need all the parts of the robot, and can't repeat the cycle with more supplies. Unless if it's a nano-assembler... But then all you would see is a robot materialize instead of parts being assembled.

Re: Weapon Dispensers (Update 8-13-09) Cloning Tube Templates! Thank you very much for the templates, now it's easy to correct my error-filled man-maker.
This is going to be a must-have in my bases.
The potential for awesome is very great.
