A Manufacturing Plant for making Custom Equipment#19

A place that is, in essence, a way to build custom equipment for yourself from Scrap.
My thought is that it’d be only available between contracts, maybe even something between gameplay runs that you spend post-run currency on, banking leftover scrap from prior runs to spend into this process.
You spend the scrap on making new weapons, using a basic class (ballistic, energy, missile, melee) and then modifiers, or making new components using an archetype (armor, heat sink, processor, repair node) and then modifiers.
I think it’d be an excellent way to add a certain degree of personalization into a player’s game.

As limitations, I think there should be a limited number of of these you can have floating at a time, meaning you have to scrap older ones to replace with newer equipment you make.
You could bring any number of them with you, but if you don’t make it out the other side on that run, the component is lost - it’s only a prototype, after all. Perhaps clearing a run with one of these custom weapons makes it so they just show up in shops as long as you don’t delete the original?

Hope this changes to planned. Its a great idea.
