Ceramic Meat Grinder

[Jackwolf]

Why is it that the lower of the two Meat Grinder's are seemingly harder to get than the metal ones?

By the time you have enough Perc*Expl to even -see- Cave clay, you have more than enough to find rustroot to find a mine, get ore, and make a metal one. Makes no sense.

Supposedly ceramic grinders will be more useful in a future update where they can produce sausages that metal ones cannot. As it is, metal meat grinders are exclusively better than ceramic meat grinders.

They were introduce last world, when metal was much harder to aquire than cave clay. Maybe you are right and something should be changed about this.

Personally I don't see the purpose of different clays other than colour coding bricks... Why X clay should be able to make Y when Z plate can make A whilst Q can make Square.


If anything, the Bone Clay should be removed from the Ceramic meat grinder just to make it somewhat plausible to get to.

Just distributes resources a bit more. Someone with Q80+ Ball Clay may not have immediate access to decently similar Acre Clay for making Redware symbel items. It is a small point and I wouldn't be surprised if one could make a valid argument of why it's moot. It would also be nice to have ceramic grinders have a more active difference given the difficulty of making one of any level of quality. I mean, getting 1 or 2 types of clay of any decent quality is hard enough but all 4 is quite impossible for any one supergrid.
