"new"? this has been a thing since 3.18.0.
also, SC wastes a lot of my time already. I consider the extra steps to put garbage in the bin as a hassle rather than something that makes sense. (yes I do take care to throw trash in the bin in real life)
and part of this hassle is the fact that doing literally anything at all is wonky at best in SC as it is today. I will occasionally try to put my garbage in the bin, only to see the garbage fall from my character's hand onto the floor outside of the bin anyway. and then I just don't bother anymore, as that was just a futile and failed effort. I just move on to what I want to do.
because SC already wastes enough of my time. I don't need more time-waste. my time takes precedence over virtual fake-waste.
CIG should (1) fix and/or bring back throwing objects, (2) fix the interactions, mechanics and animations of putting things in specific places, and (3) give me an actually worthy incentive to waste my time throwing garbage in the bin.
here's a thought: a recycling point in every planetside port or orbital station where I can sell bottles or other leftovers from eating and drinking for 1 or 2 cred per item, with the same system used to facilitate players selling other items to shops, like weapons and armor. OR, make more food and drink shops that I can, in bulk, both buy from and sell to.
