Is there an easy way to upgrade metal extractors..? At the moment it seems it is a case of blowing up the original... reclaiming the land then building a new advanced metal extractor in its place.
Isn't this a bug currently? From what i've hear you should be able to build a T2 over the T1 and replace the old one but currently you keep both.
It looks to me like they've updated the art so that the two sit quite nicely with one another. Probably still a WIP, but I'd say this is intended behaviour.
So the current implementation is you can build an advanced metal extractor right next to an already existing metal extractor?
Yes, It's to keep the separation of t2 just being better than t1, so you can have both still. Something i've noticed as well is you can place Advanced MEX's and THEN put the basic MEX's in after... Strange.. I think going straight for Advanced MEX's should dis-allow you from putting the Basic MEX in it.
Even better - directly on top of. Then the artwork means that you basically have what looks like three 'pumps' and it works relatively well. I've not yet tried building a basic extractor after an advanced, though.
In my opinion it should still be possible to build T1 extractors into T2 extractors since having both at one metal spot is a nice increase in income
Nah, thats just busywork. Make the t2 mex assimilate the t1 and have no difference how you reached the t2. And please lower the metal from the t2 mex to something more reasonable...
