Not in the past, but I suppose it could be a good idea.
Personally, I don't like it. Mechs are mechanical vehicles, cyborgs are robotic beings controlled directly via synaptic link, as a "second body", after all - for me it's a great difference. And I'd hate mechs that aren't customizable, more than I sincerely hate mechs with huge toy-looking cannons and missile launchers.
Is there any possibility of making a propulsion only fit a specific body, or make bodies that just allow specific propulsions? It's been a long time since we've discussed that, I don't know if there had any changes in that, or if you got more info by now.
That, allied to the possibility to create new factories, would allow us to start thinking about creating niches to mechs and even VTOL specific bodies.
There was
this topic about a 4th factory type, but the creator's idea was to allow building scavengers at scavenger factories. Anyway, I think his question could be recycled for our own questions. Is it possible for a human being to make that?
Thanks in advance
