[Suggestion][QoL] Allow construction bots with capacity upgrade to deconstruct multiple items on ground
Posted: Wed Oct 30, 2024 11:31 pm
Currently, construction bots set to deconstruct items on the ground are only able to pick up one item at a time. In 1.1, this was never an issue unless you removed power armor with a full inventory. However, I'm on Vulcanus right now with my brother, and we've had to mine a lot of rocks to get the necessary resources to build our first few foundries.
And our bots are really. Frickin. Slow. I estimate the bots spend more than 95% of their time picking up the overflow items from the large/huge volcanic rocks, and it's unironically faster to hand-mine the huge ones. If construction bots were able to pick up multiple items from ground in one trip, similarly to how they place tiles, this issue would be completely solved.
