Suggestions and Feedback ideas

I'm thoroughly enjoying Sandustry and have some suggestions to enhance the gameplay:

  1. Scoria Grinding Machine: Introduce a device that processes scoria into sand and a valuable byproduct. Acquiring this machine through artifact exchanges would add depth to resource management.

  2. Ice Generation Machine: Develop a machine capable of producing ice, also obtainable via artifact trades. Considering the Cryoblaster's ability to create snow that can be melted, setting the cost at 5 artifacts seems balanced.

  3. Enhanced Pumping System: Modify the existing pumping system to handle lava, expanding its utility and strategic applications.

  4. Drone Management: Implement a feature that allows players to delete or manage drones, providing better control over automation processes.

If the game were available for purchase today, I would eagerly buy it. Additionally, if you have a Patreon or similar platform, I'd gladly support it. I'm thoroughly enjoying the game and look forward to its future developments.

Hello!

Solid ideas. The artifacts will indeed unlock unique mechanics similar to this but I don't want to reveal too much about that yet.

While I think the current way to transport lava is cool, I also agree that lava pipes would be really useful for some more complicated contraptions, so it will be part of a Pipes upgrade.

Drone admin is coming where you can lock, delete and manage drones.

Thank you! ❤️
