1.4.4 Pressing On

[Nsuidara]

It is really that much slower?

for me nope, but if can you change from 25l to 30l will be nice

[Teoki]

It is really that much slower?

25%.. 50%.. for me, yes. I was already on the threshold now I will stop the production of oiled boards and the sheds.

The really boring part is the active presence needed without a large container to hold the oil so I can't just start the job and do something else. Weaving is slow but it's a click and then afk.

WHy is pressing not a click the button and afk task? You can hold a lot of seeds in seed bags and press? Or is it the phlegm drain?

I think it's the fact that an oil press only holds a small amount of oil.

[JohnCarver]

Ah, Well in that situation I would be open to increasing its oil capacity if that is really the thing holding it back?

[Nikixos]

+1, i think 100l is enough since that's what a barrel can hold, just bucket it all into a barrel pour your oil into the oiling boards and off you go.
no really, i see no real problem with the oiling press as it is, you only have to use it every few days or once per week, it's not horrible.
Teoki is just the stupid kind of noob that likes to complain about the game being "too haaaarsssh"

[Teoki]

It's the sum of things: it takes 67 seconds for 25 liters. To mass produce oiled boards, It takes too much time if I go afk or alt-tab every time and it's really too boring if I wait staring at the screen. If the oil went in the inventory, I would keep 50 buckets and even with the press so slow it wouldn't be a problem. I don't know how it would be with 100 liters but right now with only 25 and slowed down for me is not acceptable.

Go back in time and play Ultima Online when launched if you thing this is the only harsh game.
Strange definition of harsh.. it's not the end of the world, it's just a little feedback about the oil press: too boring to wait in my opinion.

That definitely is the point here,
giving it a significant capacity like the windmill would change it completely.

Once mounts and/or mule animals are introduced into the game, maybe we could hook them up to the mill/press in our stead, freeing us up from possibly playing afk when using the oil-press or a mill.

Just an idea, I am still fairly new to the game and have only used a mill and the press both only once, so I may not even know what I am talking about, or if it applies to the current conversation.

I am loving the game, it is awesome !
