The Auto feeder should get a tweak

Postby supermassimo » Tue Jan 19, 2016 6:28 pm

Well, as you all know, the auto feeder is not very good
It shoots too much food, and it gets wasted. This could be easily fixed if less food was shot each time.
Also, (this could be an upgrade) if the feeder shot exactly as much food as the slimes need it, it would take waste to 0. For example, it detects when a slime is hungry, and then shoots food. It could also have a switch that you could enable to make it stop when the collectors are full.

Please tell me if you like my idea and suggest some of yours if you want! :D

I agree, maybe an upgrade to spread the food more evenly throughout the corral as well Image

Yes! maybe add a timer with different time options which can be chosen by the rancher?

Just make it so that when a slime within the corral is hungry, it shot a food. I thought it was like this initially, but then I was disappointed to learn it was a timed drop.

Better spread, being able to take food out of the feeder, upgrade for more space in the feeder. It could use some boost boots.

The ideas I had while in game on this subject would include being able to set the amount shot out at one time. Also maybe a way to suck up any left over food? Either as an upgrade or part of the auto feeder... Thoughts, anyone?

They could make it so it stops dispensing food when there's already food on the corral

More than an upgrade, I think it should get fixed?

You already payed for it, so the fact that it doesn't work properly is not something that is supposed to happen but an error, right?
