Backpack SeedBucket

Post by Cathryn »

Basically a bucket/backpack that you could where on backpack slot would be so nice when farming since scythe uses 2 hands making the auto seed pickup while carrying a normal bucket kinda pointless.
kinda something like this

What about making another attachment to cows or horses that straps seed baskets to them. If you have them leashed to you seeds fill the baskets as you harvest them.

Some cool carriable contraption like this would be cool. It would replant the crops when you harvest them and collect the product into some carriable bag.

People already have bots that do that, it would make those bots obsolete.

It could occupy backpack, cape and head slot. Some cool model is probably hard to come up with it, but for the technical side its probably quite simple. (Replant crops and put the yeild into a big bag that you carry)

Big bag could carry a lot of seeds/carrots/whatever comes when you harvest crops and this machine would also replant them and maybe harvest them a bit quicker than by hand (but slower than scythe). You could only unequip it when its empty.

It would be mechanically powered by the hearthling by pulling some strings that come above the hearthling.

Yes, please, just give us a bucket with straps, OR a one hand sickle, any of those would do. Buckets are pointless af now during harvest.

Alternatively, allow non drinkable liquids/items stored in buckets to be placed in backpack. Easy distinction imo. Don't need to invent wheel anew.

you don't get the point of the backpack bucket.

I do, but I don't see a point in it if we could just allow for certain bucket instances to be stored in regular backpack while not empty.

In case it would be limited to stockpileable items (and the amount of one stockpile) it could be fine, IMHO.
To unload right-click it (either on character or in equipment screen) to get one item out into the hand, which then could be used to create a stockpile.
Items added to the inventory (unless explicitely placed with the cursor) should prefer to go into it (if of the same type as already in there, when not empty).

Would add nice QoL when harvesting (by taking the product, seeds would still go into inventory as-is) and also for other uses like digging clay/soil/sand, mining.
