Onidotmoe Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 Sweepy would be useful if it could harvest crops, giving it an unique advantage over Auto-Sweepers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sasza22 Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 IMO that`s a job for a different specialized bot. Main reason is that some crops grow from the ceiling. A harvest bot would reach 3 tiles up so it could harvest pincha peppernuts as well as plants in planter boxes. Sweepy can only access the ground level.

Onidotmoe Posted July 8, 2021 Author Share Posted July 8, 2021 Actually this seems only somewhat useful, plants will auto-harvest themselves if left unharvested, Sweepy harvesting them would make it slightly faster but in reality you don't need duplicants to actual harvest plants.

Iirc the plants still consume resources when fully grown so leaving them like that is pretty wasteful. It takes a few cycles for them to drop the fruit. But there`s the juicy fruit plant mutation that makes them auto harvest instantly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

minespatch Posted July 11, 2021 Share Posted July 11, 2021 I wish Sweepy could undock items into a bin to empty itself but this would be second great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onidotmoe Posted July 11, 2021 Author Share Posted July 11, 2021 An Auto-sweeper can remove items from sweepy's dock, not water bottles tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
