When I first sent the engineer to space that animation was pure magic. And the planetfall as well, it is an emotion for every new planet.

I really love this expansion. It makes me wish there were more and more worlds to explore and exploit.

Apparently, they are not really territorial animals (worms?). I expected them to react somehow when one comes to the territory of another, but they just clip through each other :lol:

Now you have done it. Give it 30 days and you will have a baby demolisher looking to ...

TL;DR
I'd like to have a shortcut to copy just the quality settings from an entity into another.

What?
For instance, suppose I have a row of inserters each one configured with a different filter item to common quality. I'd like to configure manually the first one, let's say a filter battery ...

Best thing about that video was we can finally all agree now on the pronunciation of GLEBA. Ha! No more Glee-ba or Xterms fav Glubba <3


And we learned that Factorio is Italian. "Itsa me, Factorio!"


It happens that I speak italian. And I can tell you that one of the most cringe things I ...

Shit... I had my employer release scheduled this week end and 4 days holidays already booked from Tuesday since June. But ofc stupid contractors messed up and now I it has been postponed 1 month. Don't spoil anything on this forum in the coming weeks or I will send you a demolisher at home.

They will slowly return to the closest active port. So on Gleba probably.

Now... shouldn't the heat pipes attach to the machines on this planet? If the atmosphere is that cold having a tube nearby won't be enough, right? It would just disperse the heat.

So the embargo lifts on Monday.

I don't know if I will have the change to play the week after release and I will avoid content cretors for a while.

If I come back here for FFF will there be spoilers too? Or will it be safe?

It seems pretty antithetical to Factorio to me - as a big part of vanilla is that biters continually drain your resources, until you've invested quite a bit in a fully sustainable defense (e.g., lasers + flamethrowers).


Only that iron and copper are infinite on vulcanus so there is no point ...

Could be, but they already revealed the tesla turret, and mentioned in that FFF that there was a hand-held version, so it's not really something they can't talk about yet.


If I were designing it I would make it so that if you shoot it while in a cloud it will hurt you.

This would a balance ...

I was looking forward to people encountering Demolishers during the playtesting event so I joined different servers to watch the first encounters.

The sadist side of a developer job. :twisted:

My comment on the creature... pretty much like for Dune movie, it doesn't make sense for a worm to ...

Just a thought. All these changes to logistic, trains and automation in general we saw in the last months, they are awsome but they make me wonder if those features should be unlocked "incrementally" with different research.

I'm not new to the game, so probably for me and most people here it might ...

All in all a set of very awesome changes, as always :D

The reactor thing is nice, although I am not sure if the thermal mass of reactors, pipes and heatexchangers is enough to make sure nothing is wasted, but we will see, the last sentence was quite interessting
Anyway... reading the heat and ...

Have fun at the LAN party! Leave some pentapods alive for day1.

I just noticed something, whatever creatures run around on Vulcanus are probably quite terrifying, otherwise how would you justify that packed ring of turrets around the coal patch:

how would you justify not protecting the mine to the top right at all whatsoever if they were truly terrifying ...

OR Whatever is running around there, has just a taste for coal :D

Must be Germans then. We will attack with the biggest Mechs you can imagine and dig your Coal!

Do you have any particular IP in mind here? Only thing I can think of atm is Iron Harvest and I am sure their mechs run on oil ...

It also tells me that players will have no agency, no way to change that if they want to play a different way, just as you don't have any agency to change the way you deal with their new spoilage mechanic.



What is wrong here guys? It's a supermoddable game. Everyone will find a way to mod ...

Say, quick question - Gleba has no coal... or Uranium. How are you getting all this power? From farming products you say? Ah, good, no problem there then, carry on...


Seems like it. Although shipping in Uranium might also be a strong option.


? Why? On this planet petroleum is obtained ...

I think the first mod I get will be a change to the models
Devs, please consider a 'pentaphobia mode'

those things are disturbing and creepy and viscerally disgusting
like I had to close the window because they were that icky

and I say this as someone who loves spiders


Awesome. We can ...

Maybe the agriculture tower could be repurposed to "plant" and "harvest" egg rafts?


I think eggs will be produced in the biochamber... so in theory you have to harves one manually to craft a biochamber and then with that chamber you can produe more. The issue is that if you don't process them ...
