Techfabs and protolathes

Post by constatinus » #505018

It seems that they cannot be made through the circuit imprinter. Not even the departmental ones. I think this is kinda stupid, let's say that a traitor or someone destroys your medical or engineering techfab. Now you must order these things that they build from cargo instead of just rebuilding the fabricator. I don't like that there are departmental techfabs and protolathes, but if that's it i think it would be acceptable for the circuit imprinter to make at least their respective circuits.

There's no issue with occasionally having to order something from cargo, I don't understand the complaint here.

Oh, I Think I understand, you can't order the boards or construct them.

Just add the boards as orderable from cargo, id locked to the appropriate head.

That seems like a nice way to avoid the issue.
