[1.1.37] Spidertron equipment grid doesn't open from inventory when empty

Post by astral17 »

The equipment grid will always open in any modular armor from the inventory. If the spidertron isn't empty, it opens in the same way as in modular armor, but if the equipment grid is empty, then nothing happens.

Thanks for the report. This is currently intended. It works this way to avoid the overhead of the equipment grid for fresh spidertrons when in item form until the spider is placed into the world (built). We may change that in the future but it would add more of a performance hit for all spidertrons in item form that had nothing in them.
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.
