A flying spidertron that has same properties as normal spidertrons except it hovers using a rocket engine, and has no guns.

Compatibility

  • Space Exploration: It's intended use-case, where it's capable of traversing in the zero-gravity environment of space. Therefore they are perfect builders for your space bases where there might not be scaffolding everywhere to walk. Now you have a friend you can leave behind in the remote astroid field that will happily help you fix your inevitable mistakes. It will also prevent other spiders from begin allowed in space, but this is configurable.

  • Space Age: Here it's a regular spidertron that can fly. The in-space mechanics is a little different and is no place for spiders. This spidertron does dream of going there one day though, hence the name "Space Spidertron".

Recommendation for Space Exploration: The mod Spidertron Dock's functionality was originally part of this mod. I think Spidertron Docks are quite fun, especially the fact that you can place docile spidertons on your ships without a integrity penalty. Almost like a R2D2 droid that you can activate whenever something goes wrong during interplanetary travel.
