*Looks at the macerating section of his BC sorting system, and at his list of most-hated players*

...Hey, powercrystals. I think you might need to implement blood sometime soon.

:3
I'd probably do this to myself by accident. Set up a system to transport myself through my base, and end up getting dumped into a pulverizer.

This would be amazing! A city of pipes with player heads traveling through them! (Gold pipes or it'd be really slow... :p) I can't even... comprehend.... *Nerdgasm*!!

I'm dying at the whole pulverizer scenarios though..

Edit: Only issue here... Player heads render as Steve head sprites, not the actual player's. ALL the Steve heads going through the pipes!

Or maybe getting industrially electrolysed instead of pulverised... it involves putting a massive electrical current through you until you break into your constituent parts.
Which can take quite a while.
Ouch.

After long enough, there won't be enough left of you to even allow you to feel the pain.
Maybe physically... but mentally... just in the beginning... imagining you just being a small puddle of amino acids and... other stuff..

Why can't we have large tubes that don't send you into a macerator?

I seriously wanna zipadeedoodah around my base in a pressurized transportation pipe.

And I think I just found a name.

Problem with this is, it might look cool from the outside; have you ever glitched your head into a pipe?

It would be like tiny peoples going through pipes. I'm not sure about inventories. My original idea was you would get popped out.

Or perhaps you just cannot exit into inventories and machines.
Only a pipe that's not connected to anything, and if the system you entered doesn't have this or a void pipe (killing you) then exit back out the way you got in?

That's in my head a reasonable way for this to work, otherwise inventories are weird.. >.>

I was thinking about getting dumped into places, and I had an idea: inside is a hammerspace area where you can see the contents and interact with them via clicking, same with items in pipes.

You could see the guts of your machines as you went through them. Assuming you could survive.

The pipe might have to be a separate type,such as a mob pipe.

I know this idea will probably never ever work, but I love it anyway.
