Machine Stacking via teleporter #34552

Open GreatBigFailure opened 1 year ago

GreatBigFailure commented 1 year ago

Multiple machines can be stacked via hand teleporter / teleporter

  1. Place beacon
  2. Push machines into teleporter
  3. They are now all on the same tile as the beacon
  4. This creates unique interactions/options for machines

For example, suspension field generators: Take 4, put radioactive self-charging cells in each

You now have a nearly impossible to access/destroy radiation spewing installment. If you stack two side by side it's even harder to deactivate since teleporting into the center would just have you immediately stunned by the field. Not sure if you can even get rid of that version at all. This is of course not the only use of machine stacking, it works for almost every machine

In the general case, this is just how the game works. It would have to just be dealt with in the specific cases where it causes an actual problem.
