DraconicSiege Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 so why not laser chisels? Maybe only high tier artists can have them. It would give people a reason to invest in the higher tier artist jobs.

Alfons100 Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 What would be cool would be a new station that scales with Tinkering skill, Jewelry cutting, allowing you to make jewelry to 'decorate' a tile to increase its decor. Works on any tile. Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/87357-diamond-needs-fixing/#findComment-1006386 Share on other sites More sharing options...

This doesnt give a decor bonus, we tried it before, the tempshift plate does state it give % based increase, but since it is on its own layer it sees to not affect the decor.

It has nothing to do with decor. Its about equalizing temperature. Diamond is a perfect material for it, and I am fine with that being its only use.

Even better, using a diamond focuser to increase a duplicant's efficiency when mining resulting in less of any resource destroyed when it's mined.

Have the devs thought about adding better tools that you make in a similar fashion to clothes and the atmosphere suit, and then assign to duplicants to use? I think that would make a bit more sense than the higher tier miners suddenly having better mining lasers that can mine firmer materials. On a different note to my above comment; diamonds in real life shatter more easily than one would think. Hardness in geological terms is how resistant to scratching and cutting a gem is. Not how easily it breaks. That is considered toughness. In case anyone was wondering, diamonds can be easily shattered with a hammer. I think this should be reflected accurately in game by making it easily mined and reducing its "hardness" value(which should probably be relabeled as "toughness").

ImpalerWrG Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 On a side note diamond is also an excellent conductor, so maybe diamond wire or cable? Would some kind of coal -> diamond forge be an interesting late game industrial process?

This would make diamonds a renewable resource through the use of hatches. If the devs decide they don't want it to be renewable then it probably won't happen.
