Autocleaner

Mod, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4


ABOUT
Adds Autocleaner, an autonomous robotic vacuum cleaner to the game. The robot will clean home area (or whatever else area you assign in the Schedule tab) without human intervention, and can charge from anywhere near a power grid. If damaged, stops cleaning until repaired, which requires components. You can make the autocleaner at a fabrication bench, after Fabrication research.

Roomba Robot Vacuum Cleaner

MOD COMPATIBILITY
Should be safe to add and remove from a save game (apart from seemingly harmless error messages in log, once).

If you're unable to close Schedule tab, this is caused by an exception in another mod. I can't solve this, but there is a setting to prevent autocleaners from being shown in the Schedule tab, which makes the issue go away (togther with making it impossible to assign autocleaners to areas)
