i have had some ideas for conveyor belts and conveyor slopes.

replacement tool or drones.

conveyor belts and conveyor slopes replacement tool for conveyor belt and conveyor slope is able to replace conveyor belt and conveyor slope by clicking on the conveyor. it then replaces the conveyor with new ones in your inventory and then places old the conveyor in your inventory.

the replacement tool can be set to between 1 to 4 levels of the inventory conveyor level type. it can replace conveyor from set distance from the player. the replacement tool will not change how conveyor is shaped or which direction conveyor is going.

what the drones does is run along the top of the conveyor belts and conveyor slopes. the drones replace the conveyor belts and conveyor slopes with ones the are set in the drone building.

drones are able to pass by conveyor balancer and loader. but are unable to replace them.

drones are place to top of the a conveyor belt from drone loader. which is attach to the drone building. player cannot place drones on conveyor.

drone building can have conveyor belts and loaders going to it to send the needed conveyor belts and conveyor slopes that it had in it's storage for drones to use.

drone building can be set to level 1 to 4 which mean different levels of conveyor belt types and conveyor slope types can be place by the drone. drones do not change how conveyor is shaped or which direction conveyor is going.

drones can also be pick up by drone loader or by the player.

a drone has two small storage boxes for new and old conveyor belts and conveyor slopes. that it is uses for picking up or putting down the conveyor.

if a drone runs out of new conveyors belts, new conveyor slopes, fills up it's storage with old conveyor or comes to end of conveyor. then it automatically goes back to the drone building to pick up more items or to wait for player.

Why though? We can already replace conveyors comfortably. The only missing things are skipped here, namely reversing direction and replacing balancers together with the connecting belts

yes you can brake and replace them one by one manually. but it very slow and if you have lot of conveyor belts and conveyor slopes to replace it can take long time to do so like days or weeks or even months to replace them depending on how many conveyor belts and conveyor slopes need to be replaced with new ones.

my idea make it easyer to replacement them. plus it can be fun watching drones replace the old conveyor belts and conveyor slopes with new conveyor belts and conveyor slopes.

replacing balancers is done manually by player. as balancers are too heavy from the drone to carry.

i am sure that my idea can be improved of time by game developer. if it ever gets used in the game.
