Syncronized animation (furnace, kegs, etc)

I think they would look much nicer if they all had synchronized animations no matter when you put the material in.

I like the different rhythms. Now, if you could set it so that a row of fermenters would animate from one end to the other, like they were doing the wave, that would be nifty.

This is just another task: run along the furnaces as fast as you can, filling them at the same time - so you get the wave.
Alternatively find a slowly walk this way you fill the next furnace exactly then when the one before starts its animation again - so you have them synchronized.

You both just haven't beat that tasks!

I get the wave all the time, it’s beautiful. I thought that the game was inclined to time the kegs and preserves jars this way… please don’t change it.

It's mostly out-of-sync when I'm re-filling my fermenters with a hodgepodge of different stuff. My smelters do the wave nicely, but my kegs and jars... those guys are anarchists. :P

Like trying to teach a kindergarten class to do the wave when half have had red bulls.

Is it OCD? I have that with them, but i use Automate in SDV, making copper, iron and gold never stay the same rhythm, haha.
I often run out of the house or shed, but when busy in there, i'd like to have no annoyance through my OCD.
It's not that bad, my OCD, but it does make me lose concentration, sometimes staring at it to see them correct themselves, which they don't XD
But i do understand the suggestion, if it's about that.
My brains damaged makes me lose energy over it, too, and then i need a break earlier than i'd need otherwise.
Imagine playing a game to relax and have a few more intense moments (fighting monsters), then being annoyed over some automated machines, haha.
If it's worse for you, OP, then i understand your frustration.

I understand wanting them to all be similar or do the wave. I find it mildly annoying when they just do their own thing. But I always seem to have them out of sync. So, I learned to ignore it. This often causes problems like forgetting to check if they are done . I don't take it too seriously though. It would be a bummer to sit and fixate on them though, it would be nice if a mod could help fix this issue. For the most part it would be a quality of life thing, getting to choose how they do their rhythm. It seems a bit luxurious to me.
