Super Glue Automation Mechanics

Describe the Suggestion

Having mechanical ways to place superglue would make it easier to create factories that could mass-produce contraptions or structures. Consider a conveyor belt that moves block groups along and adds more blocks or even joins two contraptions together.

It could be implemented through a new block called a glue spout, or this could be the behavior of a deployer when given super glue. I have three potential implementations. To make terms easy, I'm just going to say glue spout.

The first option to implement this would allow you to right-click the glue spout, then draw the area like when you place normal super glue. Powering the spout glues whatever is in the space.

The second option would be to require a second, linked glue spout that marks the bounding area for the glue. Links can be done similarly to redstone links.

The third option requires you to activate a glue spout in one area, then mechanically move to a second spot in order to activate it and apply glue. For example, the glue spout is on a gantry or extended piston.

With the glue spout/ deployer with super glue, this gives a lot of potential for things like automatic train car builders, making many prefab buildings for making cities, or automating the creation pvp based contraptions for minigames.
