Omnidirectional Winch. #3311

Open Chickennuggetma opened 7 months ago

Chickennuggetma commented 7 months ago

Feature description

A machine that has a context menu to select any coodinates, and upon being powered will send a winch to the selected location. Works the same as the basic winch, but can "extrude" in any direction. (Toggle sends in reverse) The winch (Tether) itself must have a simplistic design, being a square or maybe through the context menu, can be a different set shape.

Feature purpose

The basic winch is not flexible enough for certain contraptions. This will be very useful for designing "conveyor" belts and to send items in any direction autonomously.

Additional context

Compact technology is advancement, and will save frames.
