Compactor Improved Compactor

The player can commission this at Franklyn's Lab after donating Inv Shiny Disc 10 Shiny Discs to Franklyn. It will be in the mailbox the next morning.

The Compactor is a power tool that provides some of the same utility as a shovel at a much higher speed and lower stamina cost. Large areas can be quickly flattened by simultaneously walking and using the compactor.

To use the compactor, equip it in an open slot in the toolbelt, then click and/or hold "Left-Click" or "X" (Xbox Controller). The player must be standing on ground that is lower than the targeted area for it to work. When activated, the compactor quickly removes a layer of soil from the targeted square. Unlike the shovel, the removed soil is gone forever and cannot be placed again.

Like the shovel, the compactor will remove any grass or flowers that it hits and leave the seeds on the ground for collection. Compactors cannot target larger items and plants, such as trees, buildings, or crates. They will need to be removed before the compactor can target the square. It can also dig up buried treasure if any exist on that tile when it is removed.

Don't let this tool run out of power as it will break and disappear.
