Re: Factory

In this section of patch notes, we answer the questions from the community that were submitted via the in-game feedback form and/or seemed especially interesting to us, You can always contact us directly in the comments or join our Discord server Q: "Consider SHIFT+LCLICK on a placed object, like a lumber mill, to go into "place mode" for the lumber mill. This will allow players to not have to find the building in their build menu if they want to quickly copy a pre-existing building." -rosco.greenmage A: You can activate the Pipette tool by pressing 'Q', hopefully, it solves the issue for you! Q: "I think it would be good to have a type of store that can also sell multiple types of the same item. In this way, I think this would resonate with loyalty. Cats that are okay with basic Yarn will have that sold to them, while there is a different shelf for Yarn +, and yet another shelf for Yarn ++ reserved for only the pickiest of catty clientelle." -rosco.greenmage A: That would be really cool, but the way the game code is organized does not allow implementation of such feature. Besides. the release is just around the corner, it's a bit late to add that. Q: "To continue with the theme of a learning type factory, would it be good to have Catopia Ark contruction worker type cats go through a store to get the required parts rather than player supplied?" -rosco.greenmage A: Sounds interesting, but again, does not match with the game's design. Q: "WHEN I PAUSES WHY DO I STILL MOVE?" -Pubaroo A: That was implemented for your convenience, but you can always choose not to move if you don't want to! A friendly reminder: you can always chat with us directly on our Discord server. We're using Discord for work, so you'll find many of us there most of the time, don't be a stranger! An even friendlier reminder: don't forget about our collection of items in Steam Points Shop! Sergei the artist makes wonderful factory art to be observed from above, but his works' magic really shows at close-up perspective:
