So are you tired of going into a mine/farm, pickup up a wheelbarrow, getting a stockpile, releasing the barrow, picking up the barrow, climbing upstairs, putting the barrow down, using the barrow, and dumping the stockpile? Do you just wish for an easier way? NEW from Acme Co. THE FREIGHT ELEVATOR!
This 3x3 work of machining artistry can move NINE STOCKPILES from one level to the one above, OR BELOW it! WOW! It's 900% MORE EFFICIENT than moving it by hand! Gone are the days of moving each pile of rock or wood by hand! Gone are the days of fussing with finicky ladders are irritating doors! Now, in a time of catapults and battering rams, and the revolutionary windmill, we can use the machines to a constructive end instead of a destructive one!
For real though, I'm tired of screwing around with ladders and wheelbarrows. Could we have a elevator for cargo?

make 2 packracks so you can run freely with 4 wheelbarrows

Re: Tired of labour? This idea will SHOCK YOU!!!
Would an easier fix to this be to allow you to use a wheelbarrow while going up a ladder automatically?

This would be a nice addition, as being able to traverse doors and stairs with them without the need to lift them.Sevenless wrote:Would an easier fix to this be to allow you to use a wheelbarrow while going up a ladder automatically?

Seems like the simplest fix to the issue to me for sure. Not sure how the coding behind it is though, might be trickier to implement than an elevator type device.Granger wrote:This would be a nice addition, as being able to traverse doors and stairs with them without the need to lift them.

Simple: Right-click the portal (ladder, minehole, door, stair, forgot cellar trapdoor) and when you (or the wheelbarrow) reach it you'll port with the wheelbarrow like you do with a leashed animal, spawn on the 'other side' with the wheelbarrow on the same spot as you (since it can pass you while being controlled) and still attached to it.Sevenless wrote:Seems like the simplest fix to the issue to me for sure.

I like the idea of a mine elevator!

Re: Tired of labour? This idea will SHOCK YOU!!!
you people and your fancy mines inside your claims. i load a boat up with 2 chests, ride out to the relatively nearby iron mine or the 500,000 miles away tin mine, pick up my boat, slowly crawl to the mine, crawl through the mine, and proceed to probably spend way more time than a few extra trips would have taken me. then i crawl back and pray to Myself that nobody sees the idiot carrying a boat.
