How pros approach the game?
Hi guys, my fellow factory builders!
How do pros approach the game? How do they design new things? Do they plan, calculate then execute? Or do they just play by feeling? When I see other guys, for example Nilaus, he just casually do stuff which works. No efforts, no struggle, just do this and that ...

Pollution calculation when modules are present
See the images attached. The pollution increases disproportionately, it is much larger than it should be. Or do I misunderstand something?

Pump filter - Crude oil description text
Hi everyone!
I have attached a screenshot, it speaks for itself. I cant really wrap my head around the description, I assume it is some old text from some really old version.

Re: Do you care about infrastructure costs? Does it matter?
The ultimate cost is your own time. You have only a very finite amount of it, so you should favour using it to your best advantage. Will optimising your infrastructure costs free more time for you to do other stuff you wish you had more time for ? Then do optimise. Will optimising your ...

Re: Allow using blueprints/planners remotely
To be honest I have just faced this problem:
I have installed a mod, a blueprint sensor, that can read blueprints and signal out its ingredients. The problem is that it can read only actual items. The sensor is on Vulcanus, and I am on Aquilo. And arrived there not a long time ago. No cargo pad, no ...

How to "activate" tank or spidertron in remote view?
Hi folks!
Maybe a silly but simple question: How do activate/crate the vehicle to the ground in remote view?
Inserters just put them around like any othem inventory item, but does not activate the tank, spidertron, etc on the ground.

Re: Do you care about infrastructure costs? Does it matter?
Thank for the insights guys!
I really love to read your thougts and experiences. This is the game where you have so much liberty to do things in your way, that everybody does it a bit differently.
I tend to overoptimize and spending too much time with hasseling. In the early phases (game, new ...

Do you care about infrastructure costs? Does it matter?
Hi guys,
I play the game like everyone else, but time-to-time it pops in my mind: Am I thinking too much about costs? Micro costs? Does it worth to think 1 more minute, on how to place belts and pipes to be as cost effective as possible? For example using normal pipes instead of underground pipes ...
