Hmm...

Well, what I'd suggest is pretty extreme. Do you have beacons on it yet and how close is your cargo hub to this location?

First Shift
Smokestack Lightning - Howling Wolf
Johnny B. Goode - Chuck Berry
Long Tall Sally - Little Richard
Misirlou - Dick Dale

Second Shift
Crazy Train - Ozzy Osbourne
Metal Health - Quiet Riot
Kickstart My Heart - Motley Crue
Run Home - Priestess

Third Shift
Counting Stars - Dreadnaughts ...

If it's unfamiliar I'll spend about 20 hours running in circles thinking and doing small warehouse crafting. Basically all the things I enjoy in real life. Then 80 hours building a megabase. Which is a lot of opening up ipython notebook in a terminal and cursing for a few hours. Then actually ...

The thought is this:
1) Script out a simulation (in javascript or something) that will allow me to adjust starting values (such as the probabilities of each quality of tree havesting into each quality of fruit, the size of the orchard, the number of processors mashing ...

I'll probably get to film a full game. Lord help me, attention deficit disorder is not great when you need to not bicker about how a factory works and I'm terrified I'll end up screaming at the space platform thrusters (again). The bots are much improved, the last time ...

Regardless of the scheme selected, short of redesigning the process is there a better scheme for seeds?


Yes it was explained many times growth time could be made shorter, making it extremly obvious that it's not a discussion, as you ignore what other people write.


Ah! The brotherly love we ...

Glad I could help!

You took it in a beautiful direction by using filtration instead of stack control to force the arms. I'll have to remember that one, that's slick.

I read fine, but it's hard to organize thoughts and I overthink my posts.


It look like you demonstrated the obvious that was explained at the beginning of this thread by several players, if quality seed gets you quality fruit, you ruin the balance of the game. Congratulation :lol:


Yes ...

If nothing else, it would show clearly and exactly how the balance of quality supply changes as those probabilities are adjusted, and allow fine tuning of the difficulty of producing quality goods on Gleba. No matter how great or small a dev wanted the adjustment to be ...

1. Promoting the shotgun to default unlock.
2. Move piercing shotgun shells from Military 4 to Military 2.
3. Half shotgun movement penalty duration.
4. Add piercing_damage to piercing shotgun shells.

of these 4 things I can't really speak to the third one because I don't really use the ...

The short version is: as I look at this from the perspective of can it work in general there seems to be real risks of a positive feedback loop. The risks seem to be pathological. Basically, positive feedback loop bully's everyone equally and we all end up looking silly. The reason is that an ...

So yeah. Do you think you could clarify some more?


Sorry for handing you my thoughts, they are pathologically disorganized (not being sarcastic unfortunately). But you've got it on point 1. There already is a mechanical advantage in the system.

Consolidate shotgun shells and firearm magazine : The difference between them is negatable and ...

How's this for a fix to the "Infinite Quality Stuffs" objection?

Unlike using quality ingredients in quality recipes, quality seeds would not guarantee quality fruit. Just make it more probable. So, for example, if you plant some Epic (purple) quality seeds, the fruit yielded will have a high ...

I find this a bit interesting because I do use the shotgun myself. Actually, I swear by it. But never on its own, and always in combination with turrets. I consider turret creep the tactic of setting up a base of fire, and if I don't have a base of fire then I'm not doing good combat engineering ...

Alright, final one. Tested this out some, there's a valid range of inputs where you should see 153/154 ipm on a 10 minute production graph. For "theoretical" I was going on the game's estimate of 1.3 ips * 60 * 2. Actual calculated value is 1.27875ips. Yay rounding :lol: . When all other things are ...

I did the above at the end of my day. So I was rushing to bed. Once I slept, I thought about this some more and had an idea to check when I woke up.

Messed with stack sizes on u238 input, and came to the conclusion that the important thing is to have it set to 5. The particular arm doesn't matter ...

Played with this idea, not on the save but in the map editor.

Try replacing the input u238 inserter with a bulk inserter. When I saw inconsistency on the passback it was because the stack inserter was trying to grab 16 u238; which brought havoc to the design.

For dynamic stacking I used a trick ...

That makes no sense.


Alright, I need some help...



It would be a regression compared to the blueprint you posted which was fine already.


Because that's the most clear explanation I've read. And regardless of what I was trying to say with the first sentence (edit: that i wrote - not ...

Engineering is not a practice of flawless mechanisms but tradeoffs. I don't like the idea of a solution that has a lot of merits being discarded on the basis of a guess (even if it is mine) and a bench mark test at peak load.

I don't like it because a temperature sensor gives someone experience in ...
