I had this idea for awhile but I tend to ghost the forms alot and not say much.
I finally got the kick in the pants to post my form of the idea after zaratustra posted his/her first suggestion Here.
The idea:
The basic principal is to allow you to charge your equipped items Armor/tools and such while within an area as you work with your machines and chests.
I would want a this to be an effect over time verse a instant effect.
In Zaratustra's suggestion it was brought up to make this a new item. I am more towards expanding more uses for existing items then adding new gadgets.
Why?:
Personally in my play style i dont use transformers for much except regulating storage units. i think that adding another functionality of the transformer would be a nice expansion to an already in game item.
Your probably thinking "Charging from transformers? i have to make a floor of transformers!?!" well i already have this addressed in basic usage.
[size=14[u]Basic Usage[/u]:[/size]
This show two possible levels of recharging
Understanding usage:
Transformers: Transformers are the block that you must supply power to in order to energize the block floor. Different tiered transformers allow you to charge there respective tier's gear.
LV:
MV: All LV tools and
HV: All LV, MV, Lappack and
Floor Material: What the block floor is made from is very important. as you increase the Transformer Tier you must also upgrade the material which your chargeing floor is made from Hayo! (Tier levels need balancing.)
LV: Copper or tin blocks.
MV: Bronze or iron.
HV: Gold?
Please let me know what you think.
