I kinda stole it an mixed in a few other things.

I think we could use a way to improve the printing pod later in the game. Similar to how we upgrade the portal in DST. Just a structure that lets you have more control over what you get. Lets say you can build 4 (more)strucutres around the pod connecting to it (maybe make it look like an old computer with magnetic tape rolling around). Each one would affect one of the options you get. You could set all 4 to "care package" and you will get no dupes next selection. You could select to "hold a trait" on one of the dupes and you will roll a different dupe with that trait next time. You could also disallow a trait. Finally you would be able to select one of the dupe`s interests similarly to how you can select a type of dupe when rerolling at the start of the game.

The structures would use a lot of power and maybe require data banks to give those a use after research is done.

This is actually a really solid idea right here. Best one ive read that could include all the new features resources as well afterwards. Ads alot of new "science stations" we need badly. It could handle data banks. Rad bolts. fossils. Genetic mutated seeds. Critter eggs. Vicilitator recharges. Dream journals. A new machine for completing each story trait. Even add the neural brain scanner so you could scan traits.

Fully customize the dupes skills,traits,an maybe boost starting skills. Or print out an exotic species from a similar type.

Radbult quick charger for faster prints.

Each machine has a small cost or requirements for setting the printers parameters. Gives you alot of control end game and reason to progress through each story trait. great reason to keep a research rocket around.

The machines could give "science" experience as well for improving all dupes. Each one with its own skill requirement. in 2 different fields.
