Description:

• Rescues incapacitated colonists and delivers them to an available bed. As long as their power isn’t cut while doing so, there will be no interruptions, unlike colonists who sometimes decide they want to do something else during said rescue.
• If the survivor is awaiting treatment in a bed and healing items are available, it can also heal them with the same healing skill (5) as the Surgical Bed.
• They can be drafted so you can strategically place them near combat areas for faster pickup, should you be fighting a particularly risky and dangerous battle.
• They have no combat abilities, so keep them out of the line of fire. To compensate, they have higher HP at 300 so they can take a few hits if necessary.
• Increased speed compared to other drones.
• Research prerequisites – Delivery Drones and Surgical Automations. Located under Science in the taskbar.
• Additional cost with added metal and some carbon due to their large frame.
• They use the same amount of power as their delivery drone brethren.

Note that your colonists will still try to rescue their downed comrades (can you blame them?), but the drones can override them once they’re directed. To avoid this issue, using Jaggid’s Task Master Mod, you can disable Rescue from the Activities list on the colonists you don’t want doing that.

• Will automatically assist with planting, fertilizing, harvesting, and irrigating (if you have lukeh_ro’s Irrigation mod).
• As lightweight service drones intended to only carry seeds, water, and dung, they only have 50 HP and are very vulnerable to any kind of damage.
• Research prerequisites – Delivery Drones and Service Bots. Located under Science in the taskbar.
• They cost the same resources and use the same amount of power as their delivery drone brethren.
• They do not carry harvested resources to storage. You still need to have your Delivery drones handle that. This is intentional to ensure efficient harvesting and not take away a vital function from Delivery drones.

• Will automatically assist with building, repairing, and disassembling buildings and items.
• Operates at a skill of Construction 8, so anything requiring 9 or 10 will need human hands to do so.
• As lightweight service drones intended to only carry some construction materials and build, they only have 50 HP and are very vulnerable to any kind of damage.
• Research prerequisites – Delivery Drones and Service Bots. Located under Science in the taskbar.
• They cost the same resources and use the same amount of power as their delivery drone brethren.

• Will automatically assist with butchering, mining, cutting trees and plants, scavenging, and salvaging tasks.
• Operates at a skill of Physical 5.
• As lightweight service drones intended to only carry internal tools to perform their tasks, they only have 50 HP and are very vulnerable to any kind of damage.
• They do not carry harvested resources to storage. You still need to have your Delivery drones handle that. This is intentional to ensure efficient harvesting and not take away a vital function from Delivery drones.
• Research prerequisites – Delivery Drones and Service Bots. Located under Science in the taskbar.
• They cost the same resources and use the same amount of power as their delivery drone brethren.

• Will now also automatically assist with handling tasks, e.g. loading furnaces and fermentation barrels.
• No additional research required.
• As this replaces the preset for the existing vanilla delivery drone, it’s recommended not to use any other mods that alter it to prevent conflicts.

• None, mod is feature complete.
