The skill motor by Dr Pixel is a great object but could use a better mesh. The other ones cloned from it I’ve seen uploaded are too medieval or too post apocalyptic for what I want. I separated the engine from the TS3 fixer upper car converted by crispsandkerosene and ~~dangerously balanced~~ put it on top of cinderblocks from the BG bookcase with cinderblocks. The cinderblocks are repo’d to the bookcase ones, which aren’t recolorable (though they should be recolorable if there’s a cep-extra for this around). I gave it all the wall and ground shadows at a point but reduced it just to a groundshadow since I didn’t like how it looked with wallshadows. I made a few recolors partly eyedropped off Google images and partly from my own bullshit.

Other things I did: increased mechanical skill gain, increased fun gain very slightly, made autonomous, made visitor enabled, decreased footprint to 2 tiles, and added a FT version that gives tinkering enthusiasm (use only 1 version). This mesh was cloned and has new GUIDs due to this. It can be used with the original mesh.

Known issues: animations line up a bit oddly and I couldn’t figure out how to make the wrench spawn with the animations that usually use it
