Ability to see what is the current playing song.

TL;DR
Have the ability to see what is the name of the currently playing song.

What?
I would like for either:
1) When a new song starts playing, there is a message in the chat log(?). [The place where currently as a tech is finished you get a message on the left side of its completion.] There ...

Re: Simple Questions and Short Answers


Why is this 6 to 1 lane balancer not fully compressed? I used a very popular 6 to 1 train unloading blueprint for my gleba science here but the belt is not fully compressing. It's 6 stack inserters which is far enough to fully compress a 4 stack turbo belt (14400 items per minute). As you can see ...

Re: Simple Questions and Short Answers

Labs and Quality Science Packs

So Can Labs handle mixed quality packs?

ie Normal Red & Green and Rare Blue? in a Lab.... Will it work when researching a tech needing Red/Green/Blue.

Or do the science packs in a lab have to be the same Quality level? (ie. all rare) to work?

Re: [MOD 0.13] Progressive running

Really miss this mod.

I just want to be able to ramp up speed when moving.

Having a bunch of exoskeletons in your suit, means your zipping around when trying to edge a little closer to a belt, and instead zip across 4 lanes of belts.

But this mod was great, no need to remove exoskeletons, no need ...

Re: Simple Questions and Short Answers

Regarding Quality.

While I am on Narvis before sending things to space, I can make the first 2 qualities of items (Uncommon and Rare)

My question is: Can I get Epic items by using rare materials in an assembler with quality chips? Or is the output hard capped at rare until I get the next level of ...

Re: 2.0.11 Game wont load SpaceAge mod.

Deleted the folder and redownloaded the game (SA2.0.11) unzipped and it worked just fine.

Not sure what caused it to fail in my first install. 2.0SA ran fine before with the 3 mods disabled for a vanilla game. When I tried to enable them for a SA game it would not enable them properly.

2.0.11 Game wont load SpaceAge mod.

Bought and installed the SpaceAge 2.0.10 on my 2.0 game folder a few days after launch. (I first did the 1.1-2.0 soft update in the game on day 1.)

Started my first game just with 2.0 and did not include SA, E-Rails, or Quality. Played for a few hours, and now decided I wanted to do a full SA game ...

Re: Version 2.0.12

2 things about Updates.....

First, I noticed instead of downloading just a patch(?), the game seems to be redownloading the entire game again?
(Maybe it always did this but due to the much larger size of 2.0 SA it's just more noticeable.)

Second, my download for 2.0.12 keeps stopping after a few ...

Quality chips require Space age? I could have sworn they were in the 2.0 update. Was I mistaken?

My 2.0 game has already been updated to SA, so I cant go back and check. (I updated my 1.1 to 2.0 first and played with it for a few days before adding the SA. I wanted to continue my 2.0 game for ...

What are the Recipe changes between 1.1.110 and 2.0

Is there a list of what recipe changes there are between 1.1.110 and 2.0? (Not including the SA DLC)

For instance, I have heard that the rockets will be much cheaper. Instead of needing 3000 parts (100xRocket part each requiring 10xLow density structure, 10xRocket control unit, & 10xRocket fuel ...

Great Thanks.

After that you can get yourself a free steam key later - but only if you want.

As long as it is all the same game version, all you have to do is hit the Sync with Save button. It will sync all of your mods and settings, restart, and you are good to go.
