Keeping fish alive / placing fish in water

Post by mrvn »

It would be nice if fish could be caught alive, kept in a little fish bowl or so. It would then allow placing fish on water to release it. I want to transplant fish from the far away sees to the local, but unfortunately fish free, pond. Plus killing fish is such an unecessary cruelty. We have aliens for that already.

Fish Ponds

Post by Lav »

Suggestion.

Allow player to release captured fish back into water.

This way, player will be able to create fish ponds.

Reasoning.

Because fish ponds! Really, it doesn't need any more justification.

I agree that the game needs to have something added to it for food generation/management, but after proposing an idea on Reddit about food and getting fiercely shut down, it looks like the community (and probably also the development team) doesn't want it at all. Our intrepid explorer shall be forever cursed to walk the land hungry and inevitably starve to death in the depths of space after launching.

That is not so. It is just so, that the community doesn't want to have a survival game.

There are lots of ideas about feeding colonists, even feeding biters etc.

Sounds like something that would be fun as a creative/cheat mode easter egg. (Fun? You think this is some kind of GAME?)
  • Fill Barreled Fish Barrel: 50 fish + 1 water barrel -> Barreled Fish Barrel
  • Unbarrel Barreled Fish Barrel: 1 Fish Barrel -> Empty Barrel + 50 Fishwater
  • Storage tanks have new Fishwater containing state that changes the artwork into a open top fishtank. More fishwater will cause more fish particles via the particle system to be launched, this will cause the fishtank to slowly deplete since fish are temporary, but the factory is forever.

Admit it - you just want to barrel the fish so you can place them in the world and delete them by gunfire. You just want to shoot fish in that barrel!

Fish are temporary, but they can have babies. I wonder if biters like eating fish.

Fish die when they're taken out of water.
That's why.


You monster.







for real though you could do this with a mod really easily.

But you literally still can't, by hand you eat them, by inserter it doesn't do anything...
(I checked out of curiosity)
So it's not implemented :D
