    Was searching through the arcanum dat files for modding stuff when I came across some schematic descriptions that don't appear in used schematics or placeable creatures;

    1) Illuminated Decoy
    2) Explosive Decoy
    3) Automaton Gunner

    Don't know if I'm allow to post the descriptions online but hey, know there might have been 3 additional robot types is interesting. That and I discovered there's apparently a medical version of the clockwork decoy (an actual schematic for it). It brings the number of working custom robots I know about up to 4 (Others being Medical Arachnid, Poisoned Arachnid and Automaton).

    Drog introduced a lot of cut content into his UAP, the decoys and gunner being some of it. Just check the box that mentions restoring cut content when you install the patch and you get to play with these goodies.

    Aww man, now I'm going to have to uninstall and reinstall again. Ah well, at least I get the extras.

    The Clockwork Physician schematic appears in World Ed but the others don't. Strange, maybe they only all appear in game?

    Edit:

    Scratch that, I replaced my World Ed with the old version and they appear (except for the Automaton Gunner). Not sure why, greed probably.
