Allied COGs and Other Robots/Allies#169

Tiered modules for Allied COG drones, each upgrade size adds another drone to the amount spawned. A map on the inside of the drillship where you can order them to a POI (possibly capture it?), to attack a target, or just defend the drillship. A device alternative that can be placed in the interior of the ship, and the COG only protects/patrols the exterior of the ship, if the ship submerges while its on the surface it despawns/dies and is resurrected on the ship underground.

Resource collection robots that are unarmed and can carry 1 stack, can be programmed to collect only 1 type of resource or just grab anything. Its module has its own inventory separate from the base/online so your inventory doesn’t get destroyed by junk.

Recon flyer/combat drone pet (maybe multiple styles of pets, a tankdog, a mini drillship snake, a steampunkcat, etc) that follows you, can patrol the base, or you can send it to POIs. Maybe you can “feed” it scrap to make it happy and it makes a dumb happy sound. Higher tiers makes it beefier/tougher with visual changes (can be reverted to look like its original if you like).

Empire reinforcements: the module folds out to form a “box room” that you can walk into, there’s a teleporter inside that sends you soldiers. the larger the module, the more soldiers, also the “box room” adds more military barracks type stuff to it, like bunk beds, radio equipment with map, etc. You can interact with the map inside the “box room” to tells the troops to patrol the drillship, attack an enemy drillship, or move to a POI.
