Make belts good

[azrid]

just put your tools on the taskbar

The real fix would be to disable autoswitching when tool is optional or currently equipped tool can do the job.
This suggestion is less of a fix and more "let's make high q pickaxes and cleavers pointless" thing.

just reread and op didnt even say mining str of pickaxes (i.e the base str, using ql of axe) but rather mining speed... which kinda confuses me, isn't the pickaxe's mining "speed" just a factor of its mining str*your str? or is there a hidden mining speed bonus stat

My preference would be best attribute from each tool in all cases, so whatever tool has highest mining strength (which sometimes isn't a pick), but also pickaxes have a faster mining speed than stone axes, which is something miners complain about a lot. If you smack a very soft node on layer 1 with 10,000 strength and a stone axe doing 100%/swing, you still mine slower than somebody with a pickaxe doing 50% per swing. It makes mining quality ore painfully slow, especially if your strength is low and you're doing like 4% with the stone axe.

This suggestion is less of a fix and more "let's make high q pickaxes and cleavers pointless" thing.

You would still care A LOT about highQ pick for mining strength because lowerQ picks have better strength than higherQ axes. Kinda true for butcher's cleavers??? But nobody tryhards butcher cleavers anyway, they're just for quickly butchering trash animals and the stone axe is king elsewhere.

Your idea, as usual, mostly sucks ass

arent you a serial whiner about low effort high negativity shitposts?
list a problem with this idea because belt-autoswapping is annoying as hell and in my experience its something ive seen everyone from faction pvpers to hermits complain about/ask about ways to get around it. just the other day someone was in the main discord asking about how to keep from autoswapping from his high q stone axe to his low q pickaxe while mining ore.

Aren't you some kind of snugglesnail dicksucker alt account? Fuck off. It's just another shitty barely thought out "sand all the corners off the game" bullshit snail thread.

Dropping tools on the ground is good gameplay

Keep your usual trolling out of good C&I threads, thanks.

Don't be a retard, "I should be able to equip two tsacks and still use all my tools" is fucking stupid.

I didn't even think about that, that makes this suggestion 10x better, swapping back to tsacks constantly is fucking stupid.

If loftar really cares he can just put in a "if tsack full, hand no worky" line.

I didn't even think

Quelle surprise

[DDDsDD999]

I have no argument

Thank you for learning your place.

[Audiosmurf]

I mean, I've already expressed my argument, removal of equipment decisions so everything can be comfy all the time and no one is ever slightly inconvenienced is stupid and arguably against the spirit of the game. Belts should be smarter about switching, but this idea is Not Good.
