Medium Shredder

[OKOK]

This thing is really useless. Even smaller scrap metal cannot scrap.
This kind of carrying one around in medium rover useless too. Back to big rover

Yup, stupid idea.

Medium shredder is only good for one thing.
To be tossed into the large shredder.

Yeah honestly the medium shredder, i made it to see what i could shove into it - only to find it's barely worth the effort.

Shred small batteries in it, 2 x Scrap each.

The only wreckage I’ve found it can grind is the tethers, which provide next to nothing. It’s basically only there for shredding built items you don’t need anymore, but I don’t generally find myself in that situation. So it really isn’t worth using unless they let you scrap more of the wreckage items.

yeah once you can build a large medium is pointless with the only use being a garbage can.

if we could attach it to the crane and mulch salvage items of any size however...

[Malibloo]

Medium Shredder can grind: Every single slot item that isn't a material, also the usable items. Then debris like broken Splitters, broken Tethers, a broken off solar panel, a certain few specific metal plates, and the best of all, the broken research catalog.

However, given that when you can build the medium shredder, you can also very likely make the big one, it's immediately usurped and has become useless.
The worst part is that most small scrap simply isn't worth the time or effort to recycle.

There's a few totally useless items like that, yeah. The medium shredder, rover, generator, etc. Interesting how it's mostly medium-sized items that are the useless ones.

Lucky medium rover can carry large shredder.

Medium generator iz good before i get nanocarbon

Maybe not completely useless, but for most applications solar/wind or a small generator are more versatile and more useful.

Back to medium shredder.
I will expect it to be shred most medium size item smaller then medium solar panels.
But it can only shred small sizre item.

For large shredder, if only. it can scrap medium rover size item.
It opening look big enough to shred them? Why cannot it.

We need a super big oje that can shred small and medium shutters. They are just an eye sore.

Even if i blow them up, i dont get a scrap.

[OKOK]

Any all those small and medium platforms. I want to scrap all of them.

Who doesn't?

I guess one thing you can do in the future is not build platforms you aren't going to use. Or anything, really. Bu yeah, being able to scrap them would be nice, and we're going to be able to do that, supposedly, with the new T4 shredder they've teased.

[OKOK]

I will like to scrap a whole base and move to new place if possible . Why leave those building around when i want to move and waste those savegame space.
Actually it will help reduce savegame size if we can.
