• Improved asteroid collector performance - we estimate it should be 5x - 15x faster when there are thousands of asteroid chunks on the map. (118736)

Casually dropping huge performance optimisations, classic Wube move. Thumbs up!

Accumulator idle sounds don't start when the accumulators start charging, they will however start playing the idle sound, once the power source is removed. Then the idle sound plays continuously, independent of if the accumulator is charging or not.

Lab working sounds will also synchronise if the game is set to not automatically pause on finished research but you still manage to pause the game in that exact moment.

Description:
When the game is set to not pause after research is finished, if you open the technology screen (no queue) in the ...

As soon as the idle sound works, pausing the game synchronises all accumulator idle sounds. Unpausing while the sounds still fade out doesn't cancel the fade, instead the fade-out completes, and the sounds cut back in, synchronised.

If you pause the game in any way (I tested it with ...

There's a little game I also like play sometimes. At the board index, take a look at the birthday roll of honour and look at each user's profile.

Out of the 20 birthdays at the time of writing, 9 accounts appear to be spam for things ranging from holiday resorts, laptops, pharmaceuticals, to ...

Another one in the "energy consumption modifies pollution" trap.
They modify energy consumption and that results in change of pollution proportionally.

Ah yes, thanks for the links!
I can only see productivity modules, but there seems to be an explanation in that one thread.
But why do I ...

Speed and efficiency modules don't show their pollution modifier in any tooltip or info pane, only productivity modules do.

As far as I can remember, when speed and efficiency modules showed their pollution modifier in any tooltip they are related to. Be it below the recipe or in the info pane ...

Some of the new sounds of the worms include something close to human cries.

Thank you.
It indeed is a very weird sorting, but I tested the biters: their "growling" is environment, their biting sound is game effect. The worms' eerie screams seem to be an environment sound since I couldn't hear them when I ran through that biter base with only game fx turned on ...

Thanks Kavanor. But for the trains, I'm speaking of a shortcut, hotkey, I know and I do use the button at the top. But I often use it, very often indeed, so as there is a shortcut for Techs (T) and Blueprints (B), I'm desperately searching for a shortcut for Trains ...


There is no option for ...

New questions, if you will.

I have not found the shortcut to open the train interface panel.

I find the techs horribly expensive, is that normal? I'm struggling to reach lasers turrets (on my way, nearly!) after 15 hours of play time.

The train interface panel can be opened via the button in ...

I wouldn't ask if I didn't already found the answer.

A question that came up back when environment sounds were added: What exactly is the difference between the 'Game effects' and the 'Environment sounds' volume sliders?

I did some further investigation and unmapped both Enter keys from 'Enter/Leave vehicle' and bound Enter to 'Mine' and NumPad Enter to 'Build'.

While hovering nothing minable or deconstructable, the issue occured. As soon as I hovered a transport belt, it got deconstructed without the state of a ...

It is possible for you to ( Shift + ) Tab -cycle through nearly all visible slots and buttons and change their state to "pressed" by pressing Enter or NumPad Enter . You can undo that by pressing Enter or NumPad Enter on that slot/button again.

Steps to reproduce:
Unbind 'Enter/Leave vehicle ...

When holding the mouse cursor over a recipe in the main character window, the respective items in the main inventory and the quickbar light up orange.
However when you hold the cursor over the recipe, pause the game with Shift + Space , move the cursor somewhere else and then resume the game, the ...
