So... it does show that there is a cap. Yet...

Does it only communicate that the productivity bonus has reached its hard cap if the bonus reaches or exceeds +300%?

So, OP is slightly incorrect, in that the game does document the +300% cap, but only if you manage to ...

Re: Use "O" to open space platform hub

I don't think there's enough of a relationship between trains and platforms to make that binding be context sensitive like that. However, I'm certainly in favor of it becoming keybindable, because if it is, it means we can all bind it to whatever makes the most sense to us.

If you could keybind it ...

Re: Auto-launching of mixed rockets

Maybe a smaller and less balance upsetting change would be a third mode for rocket launches aside from logistic requests and manual launches, which could be like a semi-manual option.

Perhaps you could set requests for specific distinct items and distinct quantities of those items, much like with a ...

Wait, I thought OP's point was that this information is not in the tooltip, rather, their words are that it is not documented in the game anywhere. I know for sure I've seen certain caps in tooltips, as OP mentioned the ...

Re: Inactivity System to prevent Stack Inserters from getting stuck

The above point about how what you're describing is just a bulk inserter is totally accurate. And, really, if a stack inserter is stalling because of an issue like that, doesn't that imply you don't even need the greater overall item moving speed that they provide anyway? Even if you do, wouldn't ...

Re: Allow pressing E to confirm number input fields, by dropping support for scientific notation

+1

Like so many things of this nature, it seems that the only real solution is to make it configurable in the interface settings somewhere, and it's configurable in the console that means it can't be that complex to add it there, no?

Assuming this can be added to the interface settings without ...

Re: The +300% productivity cap should be documented in-game or removed


Module descriptions don't mention which modules cannot be used in beacons
Beacons are after modules in a tech tree, modules don't know about beacons.
A beacon mentions what kind of modules it can use.

Did you add this for a round number or what?


I feel that OP's criticism is totally fair ...

Re: Avoid spoilers in menu simulations

Personally, though I feel that the menu simulations in general don't give enough information about how anything is working, and you still have to interact with things in a hands-on way to even comprehend what you're looking at, I can see why someone would consider that a spoiler. I'm quite spoiler ...

Re: Train condition progress should look clearer when at 100%

+1.

I also wouldn't want it to be color coded, I'm not colorblind but for those who are, that wouldn't necessarily be very helpful.

Maybe it could be something simple but still easy to distinguish, like the text in the Condition goes bold, or maybe even strikethrough? Or little checkboxes.

Platform Construction Requests should prioritize building its requested Cargo Bays

TL;DR

If a space platform is requesting a mix of different materials for construction and/or any other requests, it should automatically prioritize requesting and building its Cargo Bays.

What?

Ideally a space platform will request and attempt to build its requested cargo bays and the ...

Platform Request Groupings Interface Improvement (Platforms using this grouping indication)

TL;DR

It would be very useful to have a quick way to tell which platforms have been assigned which logistic request groupings.

Perhaps on mouseover it could just say "Other platforms using this grouping," kind of like how the train interface has an "other trains with this stop ...

...or, at least, make it so that we can choose in the options somewhere to default to either Nauvis, or wherever the platform currently is in orbit over (or perhaps on its way to), rather than just Nauvis by default.

Re: Return sandbox mode back to the game.
