Auto-Feeder Tweeks?

Postby ArtsyTroll » Mon Jan 25, 2016 9:17 am

One thing I would find awesome is that you can decide how often -and how much- the auto-feeder pops out food for your slimes. At the moment, I have 5 of each slime, but unfortunately the auto-feeders keep popping out too much food! I could pop in another 5 slime each, but with the 4 corrals so close to eachother, any more than 5 slimes each [20 in total] in that one area causes some lag. That being said, when the auto-feeder puts out too much food, it causes lag aswell and eventually I believe the food rots too if not eaten.

What would be cool is when you buy the auto-feeder, you can change how often and how much food is put out! For example, my pen of tabby slimes. I have 5 of them and they need to eat chickens. It'd be nice to set up the auto-feeder to where 5-7 chickens are placed in the pen at morning and then at the evening. I'm not sure how long in game-time it takes for slime to get hungry enough to where they can have 2 servings though, so if morning to evening is too long, I'd might want to have the auto-feeder place 10 in at the morning and at night!

Just a suggestion for updating the auto-feeder, to prevent over-feeding, unwanted lag and food rottage. :3 Keep up the good work Monomi!! Loving this game!

Thanks, Heather! ;v;

I'll be sure to contribute more often, the auto-feeders are the one thing that popped into my mind for now.

From my experience the Auto feeder pops out about 6 pieces of food every 3 - 5 minutes or so. Unfortunately, my slimes don't eat that fast, I have 10 in each corral, and the food often gets stuck in corners after being dropped. I feel it would be better if it dropped it from the top of the corral instead of the corner.
I just call them Squishies. :3
