Igoooor

It would have some side effects like smelting all organic if you would just connect anything... I've suggested two different ways of moving small items (pull and push transfer) some time ago... https://forum.systemera.net/search/?&q="automation idea"&type=forums_topic&search_and_or=or&search_in=titles

Maybe it could also be used to repair scrap...

Actually not... I would think of it as a medium sized block that attaches to other things.

I like the general idea, I would suggest to make the update cost the exact resource difference between the two size versions. So you really "pay" more just the cost of the updater itself...

I think just displaying the screen of one player already exceeds the limits of refresh rates, so I think it won't be in a "playable" state with two screens (split)... Option would be nice anyway

It's actually not a "firearm" or something destructive, which I would interpret being the restricted thing. Just don't call it a gun and it'll be fine

Missed to reply on topic 1/2: I like the S to XL storage size system, why would you change it? If you could upgrade parts of vehicles to get higher speed/more battery etc I would like it, but right now, I don't see a real point in building out by parts... 3: maybe add a button to change seats while keeping camera angle? Kind of hard with xbox controller in mind... 4: agreed 5: they could use more "friction", yes 6: make it a customizable option, agreed

I like the idea to have better versions of things for late game, so thumbs up for the general idea. Some details: - I would settle it more late game, so I would require some resources that needs a common gas - soil tank an silo are underwhelming when comparing to M storage with canisters (except for the price) - how would you control whether silo and tank are loaded or unloaded?

Maybe he thought it looked better in C++?

I've suggested some autopilot functionality in conjunction with landing pads some time ago, if there was like a 10 second countdown between setting the target and liftoff it would be possible to board the shuttle and use it the way you described..

A function that post "+1" pasted twice

As long as there is no automated way to load/unload belts or carts, it's obsolete. The only useful thing I can think of at the moment would be to move things from one platform to another. My solution would be:

Maybe you should get rid of the middle wall and arrange the items diagonal on the sides that they would actually fit inside the box...

I really like the model, but don't see any real in-game value yet... Maybe: Items inside the box count as in players storage (but not connected to player tool) and the player can use his tool and sprint while carrying the box. So grab a box of tethers and start moving... Or a box of battery and oxygen There should be a possibility to store those on regular platforms - like a 2/3-slot toolbox shelve as medium sized item

There have been a lot of suggestions regarding this topic, but automation is not really a focus by the devs... My variant would be:
