Re: demolisher in the starting area
This change would completely cheapen the “boss fight” challenge of the first Demolisher fight by giving the player a free source of Tungsten Ore, necessary to unlock Tungsten Carbide and further Vulcanus technologies. 👎
But you already get Tungsten Ore from big rocks? This is equivalent to ...

Re: Decrease centrifuge stack size
You should limit with circuit conditions if you're using bots. Link up the assembler(s) making the centrifuges to the chest holding them and have the assembler turn off when the chest hits a certain number. Using circuits instead of the X means that if you ever take down a centrifuge with bots ...

Re: Buff handheld flamethrowers
You can already try that strategy with the handheld flamer, power armor, and 2-3 exos. It takes a good amount of skill and it is really easy to die. The huge advantage of the tank is being both fast and survivable. Circling a nest with a long range cannon is just easier and safer all around, the ...

Re: Buff handheld flamethrowers
I just realized with some testing that flamethrowers perform significantly better if you spread out the flames over a nest. Apparently nests can take multiple DoT hits if fire is on multiple tiles surrounding the nest. Fire on a single spot barely does enough to counter regen. Even for the tank ...

Re: [2.1.9] Fluid is destroyed when a tank is removed from a pipeline
This happens only when you use the deconstruction planner or remote view to delete pipes or tanks. Removing pipes with the player character still has the expected behavior, where fluid is pushed into nearby pipes so long as they are not full.

Re: Buff handheld flamethrowers
The flamethrower is not shorter range. It has the same range, 15, as shotguns and pistols. (The tank flamethrower IS short range.) It is slightly harder to use due to the way the fire arcs, but that's honestly a skill issue.

Re: Buff handheld flamethrowers
The shotgun is now the preferred method of dealing with small nests, but that in no way makes the flamethrower useless.
For taking out large swarm of biters the flamethrower is still number 1. And the best way to use it is literally to hose the entire area with flames to catch all the biters on ...

Re: Separate Save and Steam Achievements for 2.1
Per-save achievements are one of my most wanted features. I do not ever want to delete my steam achievements.
Using a dummy mod and deleting modded achievements works, but it is a bit of a chore.
