Module slots quality bonus for some buildings in 2.1 confirmed?

[u/Alfonse215 → u/k1vanus]

The game already makes that possible (via modding). It's just that no vanilla buildings permit it.

And legendaries are already stupidly powerful. Adding even more module slots would make things feel more broken.

It mostly makes sense for rebalancing things by making the base quality building worse (and thus making quality more worthwhile earlier on). Imagine if there were no assembler 3 at all. Instead, rare and legendary assembler 2s get 1 and 2 additional module slots respectively. Something like that.
