Every special wagon, except Piggy Bank, should be either buffed, or reworked entirely, bc a Piggy is singlehandedly the best special wagon in the game. It immensely improves strength of a future train ( bc 99.9% of runs start from Monorail Meadows ) by giving TONS of bolts
All other wagons are ranging from situational to completely useless:
**Cartridge Toaster: **
- More stats to scale: Leveling up this wagon past lvl 3 seems useless, bc its almost impossible to find 5+ animals on a single station. Instead wagon can lower animals required to get a cartridge, to make it comparable to Piggy ( keeping in mind that price for one cartridge vault / 4 cartridges is 16 )
- Allow it to overfill: After getting enough animals to generate one cartridge, it "goes to sleep", even when it seems possible to feed more animals in one station.
Wagon printer:
- Extension print mode: Wagon itself prints only empty wagons, which is bad, but making it print a full loaded wagon is also not a great idea, bc players will mostly remove extensions from it to make even better one ( for example, 3x range/speed for a dynamite wagon instead of random extensions ). Instead, before starting a station, player can choose to print either a wagon or an extension ( by dashing )
Task wagon:
Giving materials from quests wont help in the long run, bc it wont help improve a train. Mostly its just faster to mine materials / craft tracks.
- Risk/Reward version of Piggybank?: Instead of materials/tracks in can give bolts. Reward can increase way faster after each quest completed in a row, but drops to 1 after failing one.
Hexnut Tree Cart:
- Full rework: A player gets a hexnut every single station which is more than enough to unlock everything after playing a bit. For a player, who got everything - its a waste of a station, it does nothing. But making it based around hexnuts in other way also seems bad bc of players who have tens of thousands or even more
