Hello all! I hope it's alright to ask, but I think I may need some advice and help towards my goal. My idea for my first mod is not a new one, but it is something I'm finding trouble in starting. I want to create a robot pawn that is craftable... it would not need rest or food, but also do nothing but haul. I know I need to create a new pawn and add a recipe to a work bench, but I really don't know where to begin, especially when it comes to spawning a new pawn object as a colonist upon creation. I've read the modding tutorials, but they don't touch much regarding this. Can anyone offer advice or direction? I really appreciate it. I love the game and look forward to learning more about modding it. Thanks!

--Edit--
Sorry, I notice a very similar idea/thread over here with only one reply. I'll follow that advice but want to keep this open still! Thanks again.
