I personally think the omni-tool is a step backwards. Upgrading an alloy tool with random trash makes no sense, but building better axes and tools as you aquire materials made perfect sense! This is a huge L for grounded 2 and a reason why I only have twenty hours on it so far. I just cannot stand holding x to grab any and all resources. Tools were wonderful in G1 when you'd kill a nasty and scan the bits and BOOM you had the ability to make your gear stronger, which fit with every form of armor and weapon in world. Omni Tool needs to go.

In grounded one you could use your tools as weapons, and had the associated mutations to really leverage what you were good at. If you had a base builder, they weren't suddenly useless in combat as the Axes had a class of their own that was USEFUL. The omni-tool is awful to use, upgrading an alloy tool with yard scraps is hilariously silly, and you cannot use it without sitting somewhere and holding X to grab a resource. Yard Gnomes save you if two resources overlap as your poor tool spazzes out trying to harvest both. MAKING tools made so much more sense in Grounded, yet for some reason we have to reinvent the wheel? Why? There are PLENTY of bugs and parts to make actual tools with. Please roll back the omni tool as our only tool, because this is ridiculous.

Mint mallet has been nerfed? It it supposed to no longer act like a mallet/hammer, even though it's the big daddy of all hammers? Hope this gets fixed, embarrassing that I'm wielding my hammer of minty gods but I'm forced to carry a stone slapper to get acorns/sap/quartzite etc.

Agreeing with all of this. The game is absolutely wonderful, I didn't know how badly I wanted it until you folks gently slid it into my hands. Now I can't get enough! The spider had me yelling in fright and the game offers plenty to do in the way of building, exploring and more. I've even ventured up past the holographic #UNDER CONSTRUCTION# barriers and found a hundred new spots I want to build in! You guys are truly making something amazing and I am sending you all platonic, thankful hugs.

I too am having this problem. Base is built on top of baseball, chests are 2 full floors above baseball top, ants are still using telekinesis to raid my mushroom chests.
