Re: Simple Questions and Short Answers
Not sure, if this is the right spot to ask this. But it's definitely answered quickly, I guess. I want to update to 1.1 experimental version. I've bought the game on steam, and I've read I need to go the the "Beta-Tab". But I don't find that tab anywhere. Not in the shop, and not in my lib...

Re: Size of logistic networks
My whole base is completely covered in city blocks, so leaving 1 gap between 2 logistic networks would make it difficult to build the train tracks. By now I've only seen logistic networks split at the edge of the base. And therefore it was no issue to them. But that's a minor thing At the moment the...

Size of logistic networks
Hello, in my megabase the size of the logistic network became so big, that it takes forever until the robots build, what I want them to build. So I guess it'd be better to make several smaller logistic networks, where there are chests at the border, that provide building material (such as belts, sol...

Hub City - a 1.8k science belt based base
Hello, I produce 1.8k science and my old pc is at its limit. When everythings running I have about 30 to 40 UPS. So I will end this game now. The basic idea: Building 4 average sized belt bases, that lead to 1 center, where the rockets are sent to space, and the labs are located This is my second sa...

Re: Simple Questions and Short Answers
Im probably the 1000th guy who asks this, and its the same issue with every game I buy from steam: Where are my screenshots?
[EDIT} ok, got it. Took a while with windows search, but Ive got it.

Re: Self-Made Belt Balancers
Damn, those little things are even more complicated than I've thought. Are there some kind of "rules" that you need to remember? Like "no 'decreasing' splitter with loop input without any extra"? This should work, too, right? 3-to-1-throughput.jpg The example in the wiki (https:/...

Re: Self-Made Belt Balancers
If you want a balancer that works in every combination of input and output, no questions asked, for example a 4 to 4 that can be used as anything up to 4 to 4 and balance correctly, you basically need to build an 8 by 8 balancer, and have each output splitter have 1 standard output and 1 loopback, ...

Re: Self-Made Belt Balancers
I don't think you should put output priority on a balancer. That just unbalances everything. Of course you get less throughput without output priority. But only for a few seconds until the looping belt is full. And then it works as it should. A balancer is for balancing in the first place. Throughpu...

Re: Self-Made Belt Balancers
Both balancers are correct. The first one can be improved (with a fun twist). The first one will work correctly even without the self-looping parts and will then essentially be a perfect 1-4-to-1-4 balancer, that is it'll work regardless of how many and which inputs and outputs are used; it's equiv...

Self-Made Belt Balancers
Hello, I know there are millions of belt balancer blueprints out there, but I like to build them myself. By now I've just copied the 4-to-4, the 8-to-8 and the 6-to-6 balancer. But the rest I want to develop myself. As far as I've understood you always build a 4-to-4 or a 8-to-8 (or a 4-to-2, or a 4...

Re: 4-way intersections: Throughput and deadlocks [image heavy]
pew. 34 pages are a lot. But I haven't found the one I was building on the first page. Ive struggled with building a non-roundabout intersection within 1 city block, where 1-4 trains are able to wait between 2 train signals. And I came up with this beautiful flower: train-intersection.jpg It's compa...

Re: Efficiency Module Scaling
Hello, My suggestion: - Efficiency 1: -30% so we're able to get miners to 20% - Efficiency 2: Should be able to bring an assembly machine to 20% power consumption in a 3:1 ratio. A productivity module 3 needs +80% power. So an Efficiency module 2 should have -60% (100% + 80% - 3 * 60% = 0% and then ...

Thank you very much. But honestly I haven't understood it yet. I'll read your post in the other thread later. But I've come up with my own idea. I read the signal right in front of the station. Then a clock starts running. And as soon as the clock reaches 200 the station gets shut down. Within this ...

Re: Trains all go to the same station
I'm not sure, if I really understood how it works. you mean your trains go to following stations: - holding station - filling station - emptying station Right? They don't do anything at the holding station? Just going there and leaving as soon as a filling station opens? And as soon as a filling sta...
