Description
Made the Automatron wall spotlight automatically available to build.

May have compatibility issues with any other mod that modifies the original location of the schematic, or modifies the wall spotlight workshop object.

- The Automatron wall mounted spotlight is automatically available to build.
- The schematic for the wall mounted spotlight has been hidden.
All my mods are made purely for my own purposes. I decided to make them available to others on the off chance somebody else finds them useful. If a similar mod already exists, either I was not aware of it, or it was something I specifically wanted to try mod myself as well.
