Re: Radars on space platforms should link signals to the planet under them

I agree that this would be an awesome feature, but only if it is a different structure or there is a way to disable cross-surface radar sharing (as in, only let a planetside radar get signals from orbit if you toggle it to point upward, somehow?). If every radar in orbit automatically beams signals ...

Allow (non-cheaty) map rechart without disabling achievements

TL;DR Let the player rechart the map info they already know without using an achievement-disabling console command. What? I would like an in-game option or non-cheating command to rechart the map, or specifically the areas and objects that the player should already have knowledge of. I know about &...

Re: Wires on platforms in the ground

Wait, can you not place power poles on space platforms by default? I recall being able to do that in a creative test world with the Editor Extensions mod... If this isn't doable in vanilla, I think circuit wires on platforms needs to be addressed ASAP. (Also I agree that even if it is possible in va...

Re: Container inventory information (max/available slots) for circuit networks

I strongly second this suggestion! It would be one less set of numbers to have to hard-code everywhere (and also be convenient for mods which might change chest sizes, as you said). I will note that with the selector combinator that can output stack sizes (I'm actually not sure if it is DLC exclusiv...

Re: Ability to craft lower quality with higher quality

A small issue with the "down-binner caps things to its own quality" idea is that a Legendary down-binner does nothing (or whatever the highest quality ends up being given any mods you are playing with). And speaking of mods, whether it's this idea, the settings idea or something else, it w...

Re: Add elevated big power pole in fulgura together with elevated rails, or lower foundation tech requirements

I suspect this feature could be straightforwardly modded in by creating a duplicate power pole with different collision layers, but I have no skill with how to do the art to make it look like it has an elevated support. Unless Fulgora's oil ocean works very differently from pre-Space Age water place...

Re: Zero signal distinct from no signal

My apologies, it looks like I didn't check far enough back when looking through the existing suggestions. I can only say that combinator and wire behavior has already changed substantially with 2.0, so I hope this gets re-evaluated someday (especially in light of Selector combinator's functionality)...

Re: Ability to craft lower quality with higher quality

To clarify, I'm thinking of explicit down-binning, that the player would have to deliberately setup, not automatic. So, there wouldn't be mysteriously disappearing quality. Ah, I see. Sorry for the misunderstanding. However in practice this is still not much better. The crux of the issue is that th...

Re: Ability to craft lower quality with higher quality

Of the ideas I've seen, I think down-binning is by far the simplest, and probably also less prone to exploits or unintended consequences. I haven't gotten to quality quite yet in my current playthrough, but I've already downloaded that proof-of-concept mod and will be trying it out. However I think ...

Let Combinators Distinguish Between Zero-Valued Signal and Absent Signal

TL;DR I would like an option to let the Circuit Network, specifically Combinators, reliably distinguish between a signal with value = 0 and a signal that is not present at all, because the current erasure of zero-valued signals adds significant extra complications to what should be basic math opera...

Can I force certain values for other mods' startup settings?

I'm trying to make a mod that depends on other mods, and I want to make sure specific settings of those mods are enabled or disabled. This is largely because some mods will add prototypes or not depending on the value of a startup setting and my mod will depend on those prototypes existing. Is it po...

Hello, I like the concept of this mod but it doesn't keep up with the faster belts added by some mods. Would it be convenient to expose a setting that allows the user to set the speeds of the 5 belt sorters?

How to prevent an existing resource from spawning?

I'm trying to create a mod that changes some other mods' behavior. In particular I want to prevent some resources from spawning on the map. By this I mean that the ore shouldn't appear on the ground and the resource control sliders in the new game menu should not appear. It is OK, maybe even desirab...
