Hello!
A suggestion to add 4 inputs/outputs instead of 2, so users can make more productive use of the current buildings.
Hello!
A suggestion to add 4 inputs/outputs instead of 2, so users can make more productive use of the current buildings.
By the way, great implementation of the logic where different outputs provide different materials. It would be great if this logic is preserved. For example, if a building produces more than 2 different materials, distribute these materials between different outputs.
I'm not sure whether I will go for 4 outputs.
Have been using it in my local version and it really seams overpowered.
You always can go to use multiple buildings.
On different outputs. Do you mean the update in the preview version on distribution over the output ports ?
If so, that will certainly stay in. together with the notifications.
I am experimenting with sorted output, but that can also be implemented as separate entities that do the sorting.
Yes, exactly.
Thanks for the reply.
Let me explain where the request for 4 outputs came from. The thing is, situations often arise where a structure yields not just 1 or 2 resources, but 3 or 4. For instance, take a coal mine: extracting from it usually produces three resources—dirt, stone, and coal. If two mines are adjacent, you typically get four resources: dirt, stone, and the two specific resources from the mines. That’s what prompted the request: if there are more than two extracted materials, it would be great to have multiple outputs so each resource can travel along its own line. Why 4? Just like with the 2-output version, it looks visually appealing and symmetrical :)
Alternatively, you could add a configuration option allowing the user to choose which version of the structure to use—the 2-port or the 4-port one. That is, of course, assuming you agree to add a 4-port version :) I haven't read through the entire Discord channel, but I suspect I might not be the only one who has asked you for a 4-port version.
