This is my first java mod. It is highly experimental, and as such, the code is likely fairly messy and unwieldy (steal code at your own risk). As you can probably tell by the name, this mod is inspired by the Minecraft mod Tinker's Construct, which has an elaborate customization system for making tools. The goal of this mod is to bring a similar level of customization to Mindustry to create a deeper gameplay experience.
To be honest, this mod was really difficult to pull off, and not everything I wanted to implement made it, because trying to do so would have meant rewriting or reimplementing a substantial amount of Mindustry's base code, which I didn't feel like doing.
V7 compatibility is planned (if the mod is still alive at that point). The mod is currently fully functional in the latest builds of v7, although the units have some issues with outlining in the core database.
- JDK 8.

Normally, once you finish building your units, they will start off with all their weapons ready to shoot. However, once you finish chassis units, they will start as mostly unarmed units with now weapons (aside from the default weapons, which are fairly weak). To give them weapons, construct a weapon depot. Each weapon depot can supply a single type of weapon to any chassis unit.
Click on a friendly weapon depot and click on any of the buttons at the bottom to fill the corresponding slot of a chassis with a weapon. If there is a friendly chassis unit within range of the depot, it will be equipped with the weapon associated the depot, and the required cost for the weapon will be consumed from the depot.
Attempting to put a weapon into a slot that does not exist on a unit or attempting to mount a weapon when the depot has not been given enough supplies will result in an error message, and the materials in the depot will not be consumed. However, mounting a weapon in a slot that already has a weapon mounted on it will simply replace the existing weapon in that slot.
Slot limits on chassis by tier are as follows:
Light: 0 primary, 2 secondary
Medium: 1 primary, 2 secondary
Heavy: 3 primary, 2 secondary
