Rapid Tile Replacer (RTP)

Post by srifenbyxp » #115616

Insert desired tile into the RTP, this will replace the floor tile 3x1 or 3x3.

The replaced tile could either be stuffed into the RTP as a "Exchanged slot" or neatly stacked on the player's position.

Beats having to crowbar, place tile, pick up old tile when you want to replace every hallway tiles with space tuff or grass.
To be robust is not about combat prowess, it is the state of readiness for the situation at hand.

Ehhh...

Couldn't this be built as a mode for either the rapid pipe dispenser(RPD) or the rapid construction device (RCD)
I think it's use would be justifiable as a mode rather than adding a third gun as a shortcut to tools and labor.

FIY, pulling floortiles (or anything stackable really) over another floortile will stack those together.
Rip out floortiles, pull one, run over the other floortiles, done.

Just make floor tile replacing faster directly instead of adding a tool to get around how slow it is.

Placing a tile one at a time is hell. Trying to replace the floor with bluespace tiles is hell especially with 200+

Yes, but what would be a better way of doing it?

Maybe make pulling a tile or rod stack try and place them on tiles lacking lattice or tiles? But that would screw the tile collecting method mentioned in this thread hmm.

Make it so using the stack in the hand holding it tries to place it on all the tiles around and under you? 3x3 patter basically.
