I love the Blockheads, but sometimes, crafting can be sometimes tedious. While I understand the need for the game to be highly interactive, sometimes I wish there was a way to craft without actually having your Blockhead standing there. My idea was this:
I love the Blockheads, but sometimes, crafting can be sometimes tedious. While I understand the need for the game to be highly interactive, sometimes I wish there was a way to craft without actually having your Blockhead standing there. My idea was this:
-Either develop new automated machines that run on electricity, or revamp the current ones to include a hopper function. It would work by having the Blockhead place an item (eg. Oil) into the hopper of a machine (eg. Refinery). The Blockhead would then choose what item he or she would like to craft (eg. Fuel) and could then walk away while the machine does the work. The hopper would work the same was as a Chest, and the completed product would be placed into another Chest. The machine would of course take up more electricity than if the Blockhead were to refine or craft the items manually, but the Blockhead would not have to be present during the actual crafting process. This already half-exists in the form of the Steam Generator, where the user places a fuel source, usually Coal, into the generator, and can walk away while it produces electrify. The Automated Crafting idea would be basically the same thing.
