Now requires Harmony

Should be safe to add to Saves, and probably safe to remove as long as you clear out all the content from your save beforehand. (Always make a backup beforehand to be safe!)

If you’re looking for a similar transport like mechanoid (and dont have Biotech) VFE Mechanoids has a similar transport mech known as the "Autostrider": https://steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/?id=2329011599
(Someone pointed out that the mechs seemed similar, while true, at the time of creation I did not have it in mind, either way both vary greatly in implementation.)

This mod is my second Rimworld mod, made after a particular backlog of ancient complex quests and a complete lack of pack animals. I wanted something more stylish for my Mechinator to journey along with and so came this mod, given my moderate lack of experience with the Rimworld Art style I am really happy with how the assets for this mod turned out.

There’s More?!:

I may not respond but I love to hear feedback on the mod, my ability to fix issues may not be the best, but this mod is fairly simple anyways and should (hopefully) not have any issues.
