Auto-claim Operator rewards

[Skipachu]

Is there a way to have the operator rewards (the infinite level ones) claim themselves? I'd like to keep working on the factory while the stuff is processing. Especially with the 2 random shapes. The game doesn't move on to the next shape until the completed one is claimed. So I could be playing for a while before noticing the MaM is spitting out a shape that i no longer need.

my guess is it's to stop AFK farming.

you can also just claim them in a big batch, even after they are "completed" they will keep buffering more lvls

It's likely that the two random shapes thing is to make people feel safer that others can't "cheat" their way into the oh-so-important 'leaderboard' by AFKing.

You will still get credit for the next ones even if the prior is complete. You don’t lose any

Ah.... ok. I guess I need to pay more attention to that flashy corner, then. I've research everything, so I don't need the science, and I'm flush with platforms, so I don't need more of those. I haven't had any urgency to go in and click the buttons for those 6. Now that I've got a minimal MaM running, I need to go back to constantly checking it.

Yeah, most of them I'm not too worried about. They do keep accruing because they're the same shape. However, the two random ones keep making the old parts and do not make any progress on the next part.

In the case of randomized endgame ones (which is what the question was most likely focused on,) you can't complete any more goals either, as the game won't "roll" a new shape until the previous one is claimed.

Unless seed also determines what shapes are randomly asked for, in which case it's possible to "guess" by writing down each shape needed during a previous run with the same seed and spend hours creating a MaM or individual machine sets that will deliver all these shapes to the vortex. Not very practical?

The feature is already planned at https://shapez-2.nolt.io/2250

It's coming with 0.0.9 for the randomized goals :)
