MonsieurConnard Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 The water pump, On early game quite a reliable tool, also used in several new biomes to gather water around. Unfortunally This straw-like shape choosed to illustrate the pump is quite bugging, I hope with this thread raise awareness about plastic usage, especially straws among plastic bags that murders daily hundred-thousands of sealife creatures. How does this concerns the game you might ask, why should we bother ? In facts, yes, it's unharmful in it's own way, but as the dupes has to rely and live with sealife creatures, well they should know among us that straws are harmful for them. A slight change of texture, colors or material would be more than welcomed as it's not a major requirement of ressources. It'll just be great to not praise (willingly or not) that we should build, together without endangering materials. Cheers.

Yes, very sad. Anyway, this isn't plastic straw, it is raw mineral, like sandstone or granite.

degr Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 hmm... Think in case if you wake up inside of small asteroid, which drift nearby exploded homeworld, and you are actually not you, but just cadaver printed by printing pod crafted from genetic ooze, in environment with lack of oxygen, full of fear that if you dig a little bottom you will die in magma, and if dig top, ceil may collapse and everything will fly away into space and you die from suffocation. Do you really think, in such situation somebody care about pacu and other creatures of the sea, which is in seven times bigger then you (200 vs 30 kg)?

blueberry pi Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 I thought at first the problem was that the straws would not work because most of them are out of water in the image and would not suck the water, but this problem is ten times better, so you win.
