This is an addon mod for MDSC (credits go fully to Plushtrap1724 and his team).
Basically, it is now possible to craft and raise drone babies (or as they are referred to here: Pillbabies) that develop over time. This is how it works:
Firstly, you will need to find a way to craft a pillbaby shell. It will not to much at first, as it is empty. To bring it to life you will also need the machine to program your baby. Give it a name and choose its color. Be careful: while the color can be changed again later, the name will forever be stuck on your child!
As soon as you finalize the program, you can now call yourself the proud parent of your new pillbaby! (yes it will also state who is its parent). Now it is up to you to make its neural network develop. How do you do that you may ask? Simple:
Feed it, put it to sleep when it is cranky (to do that use the "." key, can be changed in settings if needed), keep it out of trouble. Your baby will be scared when it is near evil mobs!
If you did a good job on all of this, your pillbaby will soon mature enough for it to be uploaded to a new body whenever you are ready to let your child take on its own way!
Attention: this mod is still a beta, and some functions might be buggy. Also it is not possible to upload your baby to a new body for now, but it will mature in your care and state when it "would" be ready.
If you hit any issues, don't hesitate to leave a comment or ask in the official MDSC Discord channel: https://discord.gg/up3mnTqa3Y
Have fun becoming parents!
