Idea for a Chassis Skill

[Radicaljoe]

I've complained a couple times I think the chassis skill section is bloated and should be reorganized and condensed, but I realized I hadn't offered a skill to replace what is condensed.
I think as a replacement for inhabited machines 3, if it gets condensed into IM1 as I hope, It would be cool to operate 2 chassis at once. Jacob and Esau style from TBoI.
I shall call it:
LAN-Connection

Basically, you would control 1 chassis, and the second one would just be mimicing your inputs. You can right-click the other chassis to swap, and then have that one as the main WX, and the other one starts mimicing the inputs.

If the main WX dies, consciousness goes immediately to the other WX and the chassis would drop normally like it does for IM2. If the mimic dies, then it explodes and loses all the stuff in it. But does a lot of damage as a final send off. Just something to keep you actually attempting to dodge with the mimic instead of letting it tank until death. 
 

Is this overpowered to have double the damage(theoretically)? maybe? Is this worth the effort of maintaining 2 instances of yourself? no clue? Is it fun? I hope so!
 

I think it would be balanced by the nature of controlling 2 things at once. If you're ever talked to someone who's played Jacob and Esau, all of the responses are negative because it's difficult.

This was very similar to the Lunar affinity, and I can see where it has some issues.

Though it is fun to command a group of myself, it is very expensive to suit up every WX individually.
Related problem, the lunar version is far more expensive than I anticipated. requiring lunar island AND 12 bio data+ 2 scrap per WX.

Another issue is that this takes up chassis slots, so it just removes teleport options. And you can't swap between the different WX's to check their stats. You just have to kinda hope they're doing okay.

Lastly, they don't exactly mimic your inputs. it's close, but they have their own ai that attempts to follow your inputs exactly. Which often gets them hit because even though you dodged, they're still working out complex dodging math, then get hit for it.
