Smoothie Machine

[Bmav]

I think that all the Conveniences shops/ Restaurant's that have a smoothie machine prop like this https://gyazo.com/1ab97fd30fceef20428173f2eb4eaa8d, should be able to use it instead of having to go to a specific shop that actually has a working smoothie machine.

There are 2 reasons for this suggestion:

First      - Doesn't really make sense that you have to go to another shop just to be able to make smoothies for your shop even though you have the same machine but it just ins't functional.

Second - People that own shops really far from the actual working smoothie machines don't have to drive about 10 miles going there and back just to make smoothies.

Pros: 

- Shop workers don't have to go to another shop to do something their shop should do.

- Makes sense roleplay wise.

- Helps the shop workers that have to drive far away from their shop just to get this product.

- Also ends up making more roleplay opportunities to shops being able to make deals with random civs for smoothies and being able to use that smoothie machine increases that instead of having to go to a specific shop for it.

- Helps civs that just want to make smoothies having an easier way to find out where they can do smoothies.

Cons:

-Dev Time (considering it has to be done for all the usable shops in the map that have this prop).

And remove the ability to order in smoothies? I'd support that for this system. With your idea.

Would bring in more people into the food creation scene. Extra jobs. Extra roleplay around it. Perfect idea in my eyes.

Actually thats honestly a good idea aswell, to be honest its like 100 smoothies you can order which is close to nothing, and it's basically competition between who has the Best PC to load up the game.

Me personally and probably like most people that own shops are already in the food creation scene (atleast in the smoothies aspect) and have some people contracted for that in specific and the reason i asked for this was because it sucks that you have to go to competition in order to make something that you should be able to make on yours with employees or people contracted making it.

I think the fruit should be able to be picked ripe. Change the size of the tree for ripe and unripened fruit? Large tree = Ripe fruit but a lower yeild. Small tree = more fruit but unripened.

This allows people who are perhaps playing at off peak times and dont see many shop keepers available to have the freedom of choice without imbalancing the economy. A team of harvesters could still inhale all the fruit in the fields and haul it off happily to fulfil a contract and it covers the downtimes when pops arent so busy but people still want to crack on with their job.

Add this in to the above suggestion and you have a whole industry everyone can jump in to. Also more fruits. Add some variety. Pears, Plums etc. combos of different fruit.
