clay bowls

[Waldorf_Happenstance]

why the hell are clay bowls single use? does your character eat the damn thing? you should be able to re use the bowls.

[Capt.Cliff™]

I thought that bout the single use anchors too. IDK if there's a permanent anchor.

Maybe there's a reusable bowl to craft at some point??

[Shantelle]

lol we are hungry rafters :P . Permanent anchor does exist. Bowls though... yea dunno why they disappear ..maybe after we eat the contents the bowl melts away :P .

[sylki]

maybe it's for hygiene reasons? b/c washing the bowl is too much effort? lol

[Reyggor]

Yeah the whole bowl situation never really made any sense beyond 'balance' maybe, heck I'm fine if they want to keep it that way but then can we at least get a reusable bowl made of metal... even titanium I don't care which.....

Its just a resource sink.

Theres not much use for clay after you build certain structures, and its not like its hard to get. Ive actually stopped collecting clay at this point.

I can live with the bowl thing, although it is odd.... what I don't understand and wish they'd fix is when making anything with the goat milk, you place the bucket on your cooking pot table and instead of emptying and leaving a bucket, you cook it bucket and all.

This!

I don't know how you roll, but after cooking a stack of each cooking recipe, i only use advanced meals when i'm out on exploration, as to save an inventory slot.
Hence, as lpnlizard wrote, digging up clay from the seaground is of no priority anymore (i guess, 40 smelters *should* be enough... ^^).

Also, before bees, sand was pretty much useless afer you aquired enough adv purifiers... now you need 1 sand (glass) for every 2 honey, meaning you got to constantly harvest sand from the deep (1sand=1glass -> 4 Biofuel).

Just my 2c, Kerulon
EDIT: formatting

[Reyggor]

Wouldn't agree about needing to dig up sand, with the metal detector you'll find enough glass from treasure that sand becomes unnecessary. At least personally I've found I get more than enough for my requirements... same with copper too, so battery recharge is seeming unnecessary too....

[Shantelle]

I would like to definitely see more use for clay, sand and especially clams. But seriously ..wish I could swipe the nice wares from Chapter 2 areas. Why stop there.. beds, chairs and other furniture lol

[Tarcruel]

Well it is just clay remember... We are not fireing it to harden and we are def not sealing it. Single use is best use multiple use would break down the bowl or cause bacteria to grow in the pours

this is more about being a programing issue. Making the cooking station return an item(empty bucket in this case) is currently not possible.
