Further testing has shown that smart inserters that only have a filter go to sleep at train stations and don't wake up. Not sure how to recreate this but the setup I have is. Train Stop Engine + 1 Car train 5 smart inserters / side of the car Back two smart inserters stopped inserting items after aw...

I must say, I really enjoyed how he did the review.

Too bad he didn't show a video of where you would be at 20 hours in with bots flying around trains running etc.

Cold, bah it was -23 C (-11 F for us heathens in the US) this week in the morning. Keep up the great work guys. It is appreciated and these updates are excellent on keeping us abreast at what is happening. So far I have gotten 3 more people playing the game. Now to get more. Really curious to see ho...

Place down an inserter and a chest for it to take parts from. Inserter is blinking it needs power. Apply power to inserter. Blinking about needing power goes away. Remove power, inserter does not blink Remove chest Inserter now start blinking Essentially sleeping inserters do not wake on removal of ...

End of February is possible.

We need the endgame features! Before they are not done nothing is releasing! And better modding is also needed.

I was referring to the 0.11.x stable release and moving on to 0.12 and new features

Agree about these two. Don't care to admit how many times I've shot up my own stuff trying to pause or unpause the game with shift+space. I don't use the car much because constantly repairing it is a pain. Would be nice if it was invulnerable to collisions apart from with worms/biters and worm/bite...

Game is getting quite stable. I feel a release version SOONtm

I have a base that is at rocket defense where I never researched lasers. All I have is gun turrets. The map is maxed out on biters size and quantity. I had no problem going through the map and the gun turrets eat the biters and spitters no problem. Be aware the gun turret DO outrange the spitters, a...

I know that a mod like for example dytech offers more difficult biters, but I would approach this without game changing modifications. The current issues with fight I have are: 1. The biters are predictable, they always follow the same path 2. Once you destroyed nearby bases, you have no further at...

Actually you can without having 2 full world game states. It would involve some versioning logic to stamp the save values versus the current values and they would diverge from each other as things that are in the current state update while the save is going. Then removing the stamped version after ...

Better option .. make autosaves in a separate thread so they don't stop your game play. I would also like to point out that this could potentially be a real pain in the arse to implement, but hey, I wouldn't have to do it :D Auto-saves and normal saves *do* happen in a different thread. That doesn'...

That moment, when... ... you realise that the oil transportation by train used the only test-barrel you created for over an hour, because biters distracted you from building the barrel production :D Or my model ... where you automate production of barrels and filling / loading /etc and forget to va...

As long as the new building need like 100 Rocket defense units to make .... that would be epic.

I finished my current map challenge (no solar, no accumulators, no lasers) with very high bugs. Was great fun but now on to what I think is a bigger challenge. I'm going to try and see how close I can get to a RDF of 10 / hour to start. Depending on how that goes I may go larger. Map settings that I...

Awesome thanks, I kinda figured on the production ones but the mining ones were throwing me for a loop.

So I'm trying to accurately calculate mining times and production times. The displayed values don't match what I'm seeing with production values. Example: Iron ore mining -- 2 seconds to mine, electric mining drill says .5 mining speed. Shouldn't that mean it's at 50% speed so 3 seconds to mine wher...

Agree with Gandalf, love what you posted kovarex. The fact you are looking at mods and items that can be added and part of the base game is great.

I'm one of those payers that prefer things in the base fame rather than a mod. To me modes should be more about fundamental changes in how the game is played, not basic items. Mod type things are super fast trains, many variants of base items, tons of other resources, specialized production items or...

When you finish a game it would be great to know how much you crafted of each item.

How many items were destroyed etc.

I would love to see how many clips I go through in a game.
