Have a structure with no walls

Postby Idriveayugo » Mon Jan 14, 2008 7:56 am

I was thinking something like this: http://www.flickr.com/photos/jstickann/1252220386/

Only instead of it being tent fabric on top, it's wood or timber or something. The structure allows people to build machines outside since theres walls. This allows people to do factory work without having to be inside a building for days on end.

I don't understand how the heck this would work... You'd have to 'enter' a building anyway to access the machines... or it would be a messy object on the Objects page saying 'Tent' then the machines below it...
Kinda similar to a window suggestion, though the Window suggestion would work and is better. :wink:

Since there's no walls, you wouldn't have to "enter" it. The building would be considered part of the outside by the game engine and the machines would be outside with it. The machines would be under objects just like a potato harvester or a hematite drill.

Ah.
A better suggestion would be to have 'outdoor' machines. They require an object called a 'Tent' as part of the resources. You gotta make the tent seperate then add it into the project, so each machine would have it's own cover.

I dunno.. this suggestion is really just to enable social interaction, to make something easier in-game.... :S two cents..

Well no one wants to work boring manufacturing jobs these days. This would help encourage production.
