A lifter is a mechanoid added by the Biotech DLC.
Summary
As mechanoids, lifters are immune to fire, toxicity, and temperature extremes, despite having a Comfortable Temperature. They do not need to eat, rest, and have no mood. They will be stunned by EMP attacks and will "adapt" for 2,200 ticks (36.67 secs), rendering them immune to further EMP strikes. Mechs do not count as a pawn for determining raid points, but still contribute towards wealth.
Lifters are light mechanoids. They are created from a standard mech gestator with 1 basic subcore and 50 steel, taking up 1 bandwidth from a mechanitor. They take 1800 ticks to initally craft, and then it must gestate for 1 cycle (default 1.8 game days). Mechanoids can be fully repaired at the cost of power and nothing else. A dead lifter can be resurected for 25 steel and 1 gestation cycle so long as the corpse is extant.
Mechs under player control require power: lifters use 10% of their power per day while active. If set to dormant self-charging, they instead recharge for 1% power / day, without pollution. They recharge in a mech recharger (200W), for 50% power/day, creating 5 wastepacks whenever the recharger's waste is filled up.
Lifters will do most tasks under the Haul tab. Other than bringing items to other places, Lifters can also re-arm turrets, reinstall buildings, and more. Lifters move at 2.8 cells/s, which is roughly 60% as fast of a baseline human.
Analysis
Lifters have the unique benefits of being a mechanoid - they aren't human, and will constantly haul until they run out of power. While lifters move slower than colonists or animals, they spend the entirety of their time hauling. Multiple lifters may be created. Their lack of mood is useful for picking up far away items and corpses - though unlike human hauling, they can't cremate or bury themselves.
Compared to Carrier dryads
, lifters move faster. Carriers need to sleep, so lifters can work for longer before needing to charge. At minimum, mechs will work for 83% of the time (5 days of work, 1 day recharge), and they can be turned off when not required. However, lifters require Electricity and a mechanitor to function, while carriers are available from the neolithic era.
