    Role: Engineer/Mechanic

    Engineer
    Alignment- Town Power
    Description- you are an engineer working to help the town with your machines.

    Power: you start with enough parts for 2 uses. Each night you can deploy a sentry gun at someones house, build a Surveillance Drone, or Search a house for traps, or disable a sentry gun or recall your drone. You are immune to mechanic roleblock.
    Sentrygun: acts like a veteran at someones house but only kill people who go there hostility (sk,mm,gf,vigil, jailor, napper, oso, ect.) and ignores immunity. lasts the next 2 nights and ignores imunity, cannot kills the night it is deployed. has only enough ammo for one kill. Uses 1 set of parts. you cannot take any action (except relocate drone) the next night.
    Drone: you build it at your house one night (full night action) and can send it to someone's house the next night. while at a house you hear anything someone says and can talk to them if you so choose. the drone can be sent to any other house which will take effect the next night. Can only have one. Uses one set of parts.
    Search: you search a house and disable any traps or devices a mechanic may have placed. If you search the same house a mechanic goes to you pretty much roleblock the mechanic.
    Disable Sentry: you can disable a sentry Before it has expired to regain the parts used.

    Sentry Kill Messages: (he/she) was torn apart by a sentry gun. (he/she) is now swiss cheese.

    Options:
    Disabling a mechanic trap/device gives 1 set of parts (on)
    You start with 3 parts (off)
    Surveillance drone can hear other players in nightchat (off) *this would mean you see your the person who owns the house the drone is at and see their name but if they chat with others they would appear as "Person".*
    Detects a Mechanic if he visited by one or if you visit one. (off)

    Mechanic
    Alignment- Mafia Support

    Description- you are a shady mechanic helping the mafia wipe out the town by striping down cars.
    Invest message- coroner engineer spy framer mechanic.

    Power: Each night you can deploy a Backdoor Bomb at someones house, Place a tracker on someone, or strip a player's car and house for parts.
    Backdoor Bomb: you set a bomb that will explode when someone uses the backdoor (escort,consort, invest, beguiler, Cultist, witchdoctor, Arsonist, Jailor, napper, vigil, and consig) and kill that player. if multiple roles that can trip it visit the player one will randomly be chosen to die.
    Tracker: will tell you who the player visits the next 2 nights (does not include the night you put a tracker on them).
    Strip: will disable that player's vehicle roleblocking them next night (sk will not kill mechanic) and disable a sentry gun or surveillance drone.
    Every time you use a night action other than strip you must wait 2 nights to preform another action.

    Bomb Kill messages: (he/she) was Blown to bits. (he/she) is missing a torso. (he/she) is all over the walls.

    Options:
    Backdoor Bomb will kill all roles that can trip it (off)
    Must wait 1 nights to preform another action (off)
    Tracker lasts 1 night (off)

    Because both these roles introduce multiple action possibilities here is what they would see (unless rev allows 3 buttons next to each player's name)
    Engineer would have 2 buttons at every player's name. One for sentry gun deploy/disable and one for Searching the house. One button at his own house for building the drone, after built he can press it to change all the buttons next to player names to "deploy drone here" and again to cancel that option.
    Mechanic would have one button at each player for an action and one button next to his name to change the action in this order Bomb->Tracker->strip->Bomb

    Re: Role: Engineer/Mechanic

    mechanic seems to be a super powered consort that can kill plus the option to be a nerfed agent. Combining roles is discouraged. No sense in adding a better version of a current role.

    engineers drone ability is too powerful without a mafia counterpart. DR tries to have as few confirm-able town roles in game. This is the primary reason kidnapper was added, so someone jailed doesn't immediately know the person jailing them is town. Further more, presently the only town that can kill mafia without worrying about accidentally killing town is BG, the price he pays for that is dead upon use. That the engineer can kill only bad guys and survive after is also OP.
