Re: Aquilo, conquered


I would be interested to see closeups of of those islands, I never got that far out from the main island such that I couldn't use bots for most things.


Oh lord. I don't want anyone seeing my hack-job; I'm _not_ very organized, and my bases grow organically. I only rarely re-organize things to ...

Re: Aquilo, conquered


Congrats!
Are you transmitting heat between islands, or did you manage to get enough space to heat each island individually? I have never had more than one big island on Aquilo plus a couple of tiny ones... not enough space to support the fluid processing to heat on-premises without a lot of ice ...

Aquilo, conquered

I was doing stuff on Aquilo, and... well... is this not the essence of Factorio?

Ironically, in my faffing about I stuffed a flouroketone processor with legendary productivity modules but didn't get around to putting a speed beacon next to it, and a couple of hours later it ...

Just closing the loop here: it seems that one of the updates changed the logic enough that this is now working as expected for me, and has been for a couple of weeks.

Thanks for the responses.

2.1-pre Platform to Platform question

I love this new feature! I struggle with one aspect of it though, and that's when a platform is providing and also requesting P2P transfers.

My specific case is probably something most users will use this for: one of my Aquilo platforms is distributing fusion power cells to inner-system platforms ...

Re: Platform Request Priority

I have the same question, but with a specific situation.

I have a planet with two platforms. Above it is one platform, that's constantly trying to fill itself with Promethium shards and Biter eggs. While it's requesting fewer than a rocketful of eggs -- which prevents it from monopolizing the ...

Re: Allow logistics transfers between space platforms

I scanned, but I didn't notice the obvious argument is that it's bizarrely unrealistic to not have in-space transfers. The technological complexity of between-ship transfers is certainly no harder than surface-to-ship; the logistics are orders of magnitude smaller; and it's just a really weird ...
