electric stuff still requires a pal?

[Lord Tony]

So let me get this straight I learned the electric stove.

So now I need a pal to recharge the electric generator

and a pal to light the stove?

Why? That's now 2 pals needed to do 1 thing

the electric stove auto works at VERY SLOW rate but yeah u still need a pal for it

i believe the others also auto work at VERY SLOW rate as well.

i dunno how the heater and cooler would work slower... those i kinda hoped would just work cuz wasting multiple slots to chill food, coolers for eggs, and what not seems like a huge waste of manpower.

at least until you are trying to keep some rare tier foods ready to use.

What they meant was that even without a pal to use kindling the stove and furnace will passively craft things, just much slower than if I pal was assisting it.

They need to increase the rate at which electric items craft by themselves. It's so slow it's almost unnoticeable.

Agreed. Once you get high enough level to unlock tech anything that requires electricity should just work on its own at the same rate of at least a pal that has 2 levels in that work.

I think that would be fair since for much faster work you would still need to catch pals with 3 or higher in a skill, but if you want a more passive base and are ok with slower rates then electric equipment should be automated so that way it can work even at night where most pals won't.
