Thanks, I was looking for something just like this!

Hopefully the splitter thing still happens...if not officially at least like the loaders in a way we can switch on with a mod

Yes I also agree with this! I also came to the realization that productivity research, while it does give more ores per base, still depletes bases at the same rate, so while you could in theory make a slightly bigger factory, you will still spend as much time replacing depleted mines.

Like it says in the text: We decided to not do this, the mining productivity research seems to be solving the problem.

nooooo, i was looking forward to this so much

Sad to see the complexity go down, I was looking forward to it...


Does that productivity research have the same ROI for every level? Or is it like 2% more expensive off base every level to account for the increased ore or something?

This needs a bigger downside. Perfectly compressed balanced belts with just a 2x1? Even super expensive power and material wise itd be crazy good. Needs to be clunkier somehow where you need multiples or its bigger, or has some effect that makes it less flexible.

I rarely post, but that image was beautiful. The image was done with the 3d models used to make the 2d images for the game? Very impressive =o

Arent fusion reactors a type of boiler per se? You use the reaction heat to warm up water for a steam engine to generate electricity with.

You know you might be right. But One thing is really needed in game though. Planning! There should be some way to plan factory setup before we actually build it. It just simulates the setup and what will be pro or cons in the setup.

For Example if you have played the game called Prison Architect ...

Would it be possible to add new versions of your splitters for the new DyTech belt speeds? They have two higher ones than the base game ones.
