[Suggestion] Crouch mechanic / Char smaller?

[GD]

Ever build a belt on the ground and a 2nd one 2 tiles over it? Tried to squeeze through? No chance.

Option #1:
Make the char a little smaller to allow this (allow to enter 1.5 tile height).

Option #2:
Some kind of crouch I can activate to fit into 1,5 tile height perhaps even 1,0 tile height, e.g. under a pipe through.

Even better would be it activates automatically when I try to walk towards theses obstactles for longer than a second.

no.

you want to pass through 2 belts only one tile apart from eachother? what are you, a mouse?

[GD]

Of course I don't mean two belts directly over each other that would 0,5 tiles.

No you have a belt at 0 and you have a belt at +2. There are 1,5 tiles of free space between.

I don't agree that you should be able to pass between two belts with one block space...but I do find it annoying that you can fit in a 2 block space, but when you add a belt you suddenly can't stand on it and still fit. Not a big deal until you're belting a massive line through a mountain LOL

that's what he means i think, they should give us crouch to fit trough that. often i built something, need a belt under it and suddenly can't pass anymore. removing the floor and dropping belt down just to be able to get to the other side...

Yes this is what I mean.

B = Belt
E = Empty

EEEEE Pass
EEEEE

EEEEE Not Pass

Belts are less then half a tile height. There is room but once a belt is there it is like running against a wall.

Just build this and look at it yourself. You stand before it and wonder:
"Why the hell not?! There is more than enough space just take the head down."

I wish I could somehow insert a picture of it here.

I suggest a Metroid style "Morph Ball" upgrade so we can roll around on our belts please.
