Mechanoid slag chunk is a smeltable chunk occasionally dropped by Mechanoids upon death.
Summary[edit]
Mechanoid slag chunks initially spawn on a world map, scattered around the same as the other chunk types. They also have a chance of dropping upon the death of a mechanoid, at the second nearest unoccupied tile to the point of death, where the corpse takes priority in dropping first[Verify]. The chances of a slag chunk drop are loosely related to the class of mechanoid, with light mechs dropping none, medium combat mechs having a 10% chance, heavy combat mechs having a 50% chance, and ultraheavy mechs having a 75% chance, with some exceptions.
The different variants are only graphically distinct and otherwise identical, besides from different mechs dropping chunks that reflect the mechanoid's appearance.

Analysis[edit]
While providing an increased amount of steel salvage and impromptu cover during mech battles, they can be quite detrimental and disruptive in enclosed spaces: namely kill boxes and melee chokepoints. Upon the death of a mechanoid, a dropped chunk will likely occupy one of the tiles that one of your pawns are on, pushing them off and only allowing them to occupy that tile when pathing across, typically to target an enemy on the other side. These mandate immediate prioritized hauling in order to limit the effect they have on your combat formation.
