Something like what you are asking for here is already doable with just interrupts. Not sure why such a complicated new entity would be needed.

The issue with this is recipes that dynamically change quality (ie: circuit network setting recipes).

Derp, completely forgot about the whole 'rockets need iron' thing. You're right about that. (my thought process had actually been that you just, ship all the stuff needed to build a rocket to Gleba, but uhh, that would be mightily expensive...)

If you've done Vulcanus or Fulgora before Gleba ...

It's been a year and this anti-automation still hasn't been fixed... Allow us to control thrusters with circuits as well.


For the thrusters thing I would recommend controlling pumps with circuits. I don't really see a problem with that.


Yes that's how everyone does it but every machine ...

I think it would be a positive change, but sometimes I do want to look at what a train is doing without interfering with it.


I don't get it. You don't need to click the button to look at the train. In fact if you see the button, you are already looking at what the train is doing.


It is ...

For anyone wondering about quality seeds growing into quality fruit see 124678. Every variation of it I can think of is on there.

Energy consumption also affects the pollution produced by a machine. The formula is
total pollution = pollution multiplier * energy usage multiplier * base pollution

Hope this helps.

Because underground connections are only blocked by lava tiles and empty space tiles. Oil ocean does not block underground connections.

Makes sense. Thanks for humoring my curiosity.

boskid wrote: Mon Nov 03, 2025 12:27 pm I am considering this to be a duplicate of 116827 since belt drag building depends on undergrounds finding the other end and currently they are unable to find other end through tile ghosts.

If this option isn't feasible for some reason, I'd like to be able to read the cargo landing pad inventory at the same time as setting its requests, so I can add this to the request, so all wanted items can be requested, no matter if some are in the landing pad or in some chest. Would achieve ...

Increasing internal buffer would also be helpful.

Two words: Belt storage. That terrible, brainless cheese strategy still exists, and people still use it, even after the recipe rebalance that was done before release.
For those unaware, allow me to explain. Promethium science packs are crafted from promethium asteroid chunks, quantum processors ...

This is not what my bug report was about. Note that foundation is used but an underground is not made.

To remove the "probably:" assemblers are required to craft engines which are required for chemical science which is required to beat the game. Now the question is what is the minimal number of crafts done in an assembler?

Note: foundation must be unlocked for this to occur. (It occurs when it isn't unlocked too but then it isn't a bug)

I hope I didn't miss any other 'errors'!

The underground going the wrong way on the left of the image also isn't going/coming from anywhere.

What I don't like about how quality is implemented is that it feels like a gambling machine, I avoid mobile games for that reason alone.

It has some aspects that feel like that (armor for example). However, for most cases, you are "gambling" thousands of times at least (likely far more). In this ...
