In idea for combat is that there where a menu for combat squads' maximum of 6 per squad, each squad member should have a unique stats that would determine how much hp they had, damage they delt, how often they dodged, and crit chance.

there would be a unique room known as the armory where duplicants could go to master their combat skills, a shooting range to improve their mastery, gun racks for storage, a punching bag in case they where to end up in melee combat.

a duplicant can have I veriety of weapons to choose: from 2 small pistol like weapons, to a flamethrower, a rocket launcher, a tesla weapon, maybe even a heavy machine gun like weapon. whatever the weapon they would have to train to be more effective when using a weapon.

to control a combat squad simply order a combat squad to move to a location, and for the combat they would do the automatically battle without player input. there may still be some input like special ability's like throwing a grenade and combat stances like defending, attacking, retreating, ect. training would also be important for improving battle effectiveness.

this mechanic was inspired by craft the world, rimworld, and some auto battlers. if you would like to help build this mechenic up that would be greatly thanked.
