Spent casings can be turned into metal
You will never be as bad as the baldie who picked up a tactical shotgun while a hunter was pouncing on top of a CMO for 4 seconds, with his only response being to pace around before being decap'd by said hunter. You are not Brett Kimple, and you never will be. You are not the reason why I regular MP.

Re: Spent casings can be turned into metal
No one will do this because you can already use other methods to make metal that aren't as tedious, time consuming, and frustrating to do. Casings are small sprites to click on (and alt clicking every tile with casings on it would be a pain), and would probably give negligible gains when you could use service pistols / SMG's / shotgun shells for more metal.

Re: Spent casings can be turned into metal
If you can use the trash bag to gather all casings on a turf and dump them all at once in the autlathe, it could work.

Picturing this is frankly ridiculous and if this was ever implemented nobody would ever use it. Marines don't even bother sending back empty mags on the rasp so something even more minor like this just seems even more tedious and less useful.

In that case there needs to be a janitor, or better yet, being assigned Janitor should be a punishment, as to quote one famous Drill Sargent I heard: "There are a lot of openings in the Custodial Department, where you can CLEAN UP YOUR SHIT PERFORMANCE!"Crab_Spider wrote:It's just to reduce lag.
