[Suggestion] Fire Extinguisher needs to be refillable, or extremely lower price

29 votes

an item that costs that many resources (the 20 steel alone is insane) and is effectively a consumable is total nonsense, you should be able to refill it with Oxite or make it cost a fraction of its current resources to make.

Having tested the fire extinguisher it was found to be all but useless.
Given the price to craft it i believe it should be reusable either with a specific recipie to craft the gel or using water to refil and reuse. The fire whacker is far more usefu.

I agree, make it refillable - maybe at the oxite dissolver station (or metal one I saw in the craft tree)

Silly that it takes 20 steel. Might as well make 200 stone walls/floors/roof and avoid all together.

A refillable extinguisher is a good idea. Also, it doesn't put out beam fires on your house very easily. I set my cabin on fire and purposefully let it spread to two horizontal beams before trying to extinguish it with a full canister - no dice. The entire stone cabin (with wood beams) burnt down.
