Re: Friday Facts #446 - An ARM and a Frame
Finally I can host natively on RPi servers!
Considering how ARM64 has been increasing in popularity over the last decade, maybe in another 10 years we will get an official RISC-V port when the single board computers start getting more stable OS targets...?

Re: Steam Frame certified!
Does "standalone certified" mean the developer had to go through a certification program or is it just automatically attributed to games that passed Valve internal testing on the hardware? Either way, congrats Wube for supporting yet another hardware platform

Re: Obtaining stone from space
Don't forget, AFAIK, the main application at hand is making furnaces, not roads. And maybe military/production science.
This is true for stone and stone bricks, but refined concrete is just a tile, it's not an ingredient to any building, hence why I drew an analogy between refined concrete ...

Re: Disable new radar behaviour
Instead it should be replaced with radar being able to track how many bitters/spitters/spawners&worms does it detect.
From that then we could build circuits for any alert we need - e.g. larger increase in spawners/worms - means we have detected new base there.
+1 on that. And when pairing ...

Re: Version 2.1.14
The damage asteroids deal to a stationary ship has been nerved in the 2.1.13 version and should persist on version 2.1.14
But I just realized today that a single asteroid oneshot a thruster on my stationary ship.
This happened 4 times so it was not just a one-off. (3 times in the orbit of fulgora ...

Re: Small Island, no enemies.
I like island maps, but I find that it makes later expansion very difficult. Many resource patches end up covered by water so you have to venture deep into biter territory to get more resources later in the game.
This, and it also gives a false sense of security. I start the game knowing I am ...

Re: Obtaining stone from space
Concrete specifically needs calcium containing stones.
I wonder if asphalt concrete could be a good stand-in for some applications in Factorio where concrete is usually used. The recipe could be approximated (very roughly) using petroleum processing of some kind. I imagine asphalt concrete is ...

Re: Friday Facts #445 - The Biters Bite Back
Idea: when nests absorb pollution, there is an ever-increasing chance that a 'builder' will spawn to increase the size of that nest.
That would incentivize players to A) reduce pollution and/or B) deal with biter nests within their pollution cloud before they fill their entire area and produce ...
