Transporters
« on: November 15, 2007, 01:00:00 pm »
Why not to made transporters which will transport any item lying on them through caverns and drop it where transporter ends? This would be useful for dumping areas: you make several dumping areas which all leads to one huge heap of stone or into chasm through transporter. They can be powered up by water wells or by windmills and their power consumption will depend on how much items are lying on them.

You pretty much have this already, and don't need power.

The transporters are the cyan-colored immigrants.
