Possessed Chassis Changes

[viblym]

I'm trying to use these things and like them, I'm trying so hard. 

Possessed chassis chug gears constantly, I've seen them eat gears when I know they're at full stats, I've seen them eat gears after loosing 5 hp, they need to learn some moderation.

Possessed chassis can use rift repair kits, I'd like if they knew how to use sewing kits as well. Since sanity is a risk for them I've hooked mine up with a tam o', but I have to repair it myself.

You NEED to have the ability to tell them to rest or wait, at the current moment, your only option when you don't want them to engage with something or follow you is to kill them, rendering your backup at 1 HP, using durability on whatever armor they have on, and making it so you need to capture another gestalt to reactivate them. At the current moment they are on par with pre-rework Abigail, at the very least I'd like something like the Sit command that Walter has for Woby, where I can tell them to return to static form without loosing the gestalt and all of its hp. 

If we could use spark arcs in place of a gestalt that would be cool maybe too idk 👍

I'd like to have an indicator for their stats. I don't know exactly how you'd be able to implement this without it being super obnoxious, but I have SOME ideas. So I just lied sorry. It's disgustingly rendered because I don't feel like making it look pretty, you're getting my raw idea.

In response to being able to see their stats (see point 9):

I almost wonder if they should even still be able to starve, considering you're gonna be feeding them for health and sanity anyways.

Idk about that. By the time you get a spark ark, you're not too far away from being able to make phasmo-encapsulators.

Would it be too crazy if rift gestalts were just naturally attracted to chassis with the spectral transfer module, instead of having to set a chassis near some plants/a possessable corpse and wait for an incursive gestalt to get "distracted" by it?

What if they stayed in place when using the /sit emote, allowing you to 'wake them up' later just like Winona’s catapults?

And I hate it.

i wonder why it is that they refuse to do status meters, alot of the critique around the affinity both earlier and now is adressed by adding that
