Re: Asteroid collector blacklist filter or target priorities

I have no idea what you are referring to, I was simply commenting that you were making a suggestion that is generally irrelevant to this request and, if desired, should be requested on a separate post.

I quoted the comment I answering to but you can't figure. Amazing.

OK. Let's say you using a "mods that might add more than four types of asteroids". At some point you need to blacklist all types from mods and some SA types. Or all SA types and some types from mods. Both cases goes over five types. With blacklist being limited to five ...

You need to both send a positive signal for the chunks you currently want (in case none are stored), as well as sending a very large negative signal for types to stop collecting (since some chunks might be still stored in this or other networked collectors).

Reading about large negative I assume ...

Re: WASM instead of Lua


I would be interested in trying C# as a modding language alternative, but I haven’t looked into the cons of it, and I’m unsure if it supports running on non-windows.

If you want to use C# syntax while leaving you modding API just a wrapper for core functions then it's same as Lua.

Re: Discussion on Robot Pathing


But is there any *technical* reason why roboports couldn't make a "linked-list" type of pathing?
I was thinking something along the lines of:
1) use the closest roboport (R1) to try to fulfill the request activating bots
2) If that's not enough, expand to next linked roboport(R2) and try to ...

There are many mods who do exactly what i will write here so i don't get why they are not in the main game by default.

What you described is just a tonload of options never needed by new players.


As we have alt and all the other buttons, i suggest a new one. This new one essentially tells the ...

Re: Belt Imunity rework if not redone

All in all you ask for couple of new items not to change game mechanic or introduce a new one. You suggestion better fits to mod request. Plus, mod's page will accumulate usage statistics clearly showing if the feature is demanded by players or not.

We have no interest in allowing more than 255 qualities. Given that items have quality, if the variable holding quality of items would be 2 bytes that already messes up alignment of all inventories and would increase memory from 24 bytes per item stack to 32 bytes per item stack.
