0.184.3. Remove levers and add buttons.

[spare kettle]

After finishing the construction of the rover vehicle, when I went to open it, I saw that the exterior lever had not appeared, and when I entered the vehicle, the interior lever was also missing. Both levers are missing and have not been constructed.

🤔 I hope it's a bug because if it's not a bug and they've removed it, then it's no longer realistic. 😔 It would become a suggestion to add it back. Thank you. 😅 👋

fully intended

[upbeat grail]

Huh?

[civic kelp]

It's intended to be that way

[neat crest]

Agree, that's not a bug; it was removed on purpose

[spare kettle]

😉 Well, I leave it as a suggestion, because visually it’s not realistic, and it would be great to see the levers again, or if not, have a button to skip the lever animation. I think a button to select would be better. Regards 🙂

Button is the answer for everything 😄

[spare kettle]

Now that I think about it, it would be a good suggestion, and I’d like you to mention it to Lukaz and Piramid. It would be to remove the levers and add one or two buttons to open and close the locks, like doors and vehicles. I see that the developers are trying to remove animations as much as they can to improve performance, so it would be a good idea for them to be buttons. 🙂 In real life, there are doors with buttons like elevators, and there are vehicles that use them too. 😉 Thank you very much, and I hope they consider the idea. 🤞 😊 👋

@spare kettle ??

Got a notification but there's nothing new here

Plz don't shadow-bump reports, if there's any interaction from my side (comment, emoji reaction, anything) then it means that I've already took a proper action ^^"

[spare kettle]

Sorry. I was correcting some spelling mistakes and editing properly. That might be why you got the notification. I'll keep it in mind 😉 so I don't disturb you when I improve some sentences. 😅 👋

[neat crest]

Spelling mistakes are fine, don't worry about them 😊

[upbeat grail]

Ok so I am now intrigued: why were they removed?

[spare kettle]

I think it’s meant to improve performance, and with fewer animations, it’s better. But it’s a mistake to remove the levers for opening and closing, leaving nothing there. That’s not realistic. They could have added two buttons, one inside and one outside, to open and close by selecting the button with the hand, which would have an animation. That way, the only animation would be in the hand. The button could just have a selection sound and open or close vehicles and any doors like airlocks, eliminating the lever animation, leaving just the button with no animation. That would be more logical and visually realistic. And if not? They could leave a static button or lever, like decoration, so it would still look good and realistic without using the lever or button. That would be another idea. But removing it entirely, visually, isn’t realistic and doesn’t make sense to open something without seeing anything to open it. Regards. 👋

[wintry gull]

you mean... something like that? 😮

[spare kettle]

That doesn't look like a button or lever that makes sense; it looks like a ring to hang something there, not like a lock. But still, I accept it and just left the suggestion without bothering anyone. Thanks. 👋 😘

[wintry gull]

you were planning to hang your laundry outside the rover? lol

[upbeat grail]

Sure. Save power and air dry it

[civic kelp]

What is that even meant to be?

[wintry gull]

a lever to unlock the rover door

[civic kelp]

It's never did anything though. The lever was on the other side of the door

[wintry gull]

it didn't animate but it was tied to the door too before

[civic kelp]

Strange, even when I clicked it, it did absolutely nothing
