A SpiderBot with all three weapon upgrades.
The SpiderBot is a friendly mobil weapon platform that can be equiped with up to three weapon upgrades.
Behaviour
As long as no threats have been detected, SpiderBot will patrol the players base within range of the CPH. When the player is under attack, SpiderBot will try to intercept the attacking airborne enemy. He will not react to attacks unless he has received a weapon from the docking station.
Combat
In order to use the SpiderBot to the defend the base, the player must build a Docking Bay to supply him with Power Cores and weapon upgrades. Once crafted, these can be retrieved from any hopper adjected to the Docking Bay. As soon as SpiderBot has been given a weapon and received enough power, he will start moving towards the enemy as soon as the next attack begins. Once the threat has been eliminated he will continue his patrol. If his energy is low or a new weapon is waiting at the Docking Bay, SpiderBot will dock again. He can hold a max of 150,000 power.
Weapons
There are currently a total of three weapon upgrades available. Each tailored to deal with a special type of wasp.
