Had a variety of coins inserted in the Industrial Machine. Ejected them and it gave me a bunch of $1 coins I didn't remember inserting. Reinserted and ejected them again and some of the $1 coins turned into a couple 10 to 25 cent coins.

omg i love that! it gives proper change like IRL :D.
(or at least drink vending machines work like that in my experience, idk about coin laundries)

I wonder if it's random or if it keeps track of what's in the machine already 🤔

and one would hope, then, that if you accidentally insert a rare coin it rejects it and doesn't exchange it...

If it's on purpose, that's neat bit of detail. But in a gameplay perspective, it can easily be exploited.

The rare coins just immediately get ejected.

exploited in what way? money value-wise it seems to eject the correct total value.

i suppose it could be useful if e.g. you need $1 coins for a quest. But it only works for dollar currency

Still. Seems a little bit of balancing issue. Also, it doesn't seem to guarantee giving you $1 coins. It sometimes turn those coins into the lower denomination at random.

My testing agrees with xanaphia so far. I inserted random coins and got back all $1 coins except for the last bit that was less than a dollar, but it matched the total on the screen.

Probably try inserting only coins that total to a $1 each and eject them

Yes, that ejects $1 coins. If I fill it with random coins for a total of $10.35, it spits out 10 $1, a quarter, and a dime.

Hm. Unless the devs confirm this is on purpose, I'll still keep this post up.

Hmm, I may have just found a save file that behaves similarly to what you described. Let me try this again.

Knew it. I wasn't going crazy.

I can get it to happen with as few as 4 dimes. It will return a dime and a quarter with a nickel left behind.

oh weird, mine just did the same with that $22.90 value, leaving 0.05 in the machine. I guess cos there's no 5c coin?

But it's still coming out the total value (including the 0.05 in the machine) is correct.

#

ditto with the 4 dimes

#

must be the way it divides out the largest denomination
i.e. $0.40 - 0.25 - 0.10 = 0.05
$22.90 - 22x$1 - 1x0.50 - 1x0.25 - 1x0.10 = 0.05

#

....but then again....
$1.05 comes out as = 1x0.50 + 1x0.25 + 3x0.10
