Eniko (moved ➡ gamedev.place)im so glad i have a little robot guy who lives in my house and who i can tell to vacuum the floors because the way things are right now those floors would absolutely not get vacuumed at all otherwise
EDIT: the robot is called mittens, btw
Keith Evans@eniko The problem I've always run into with robovacuums is that my living arrangements generally mean there's not space for a robot to get around the complex array of table-legs, chairs, projects, and wires. To be fair, this is also a problem for normal vacuum cleaners and I have to rearrange furniture to clean the apartment.
More of a "I live around too much things" error that I'm hoping corrects itself when I move out.
@kaynSD yeah. one of the ones that just bops around randomly doesn't really work, ive found. you gotta get one of the ones that actually navigates. but if your spaces are cluttered (on the floor anyhow) its still a mess
@eniko Plan for the next place (which I'll not be renting...) is to get a lot of floating shelves, wall mounted objects, and skirting rails for things that touch the floor, so that a vacuum can navigate them easier rather than having to awkwardly angle a broom to attack dustbunnies
