Re: The price of the game is way to high



You live in Canada, a wealthy Western country, you enjoyed a computer game for 10 years, and cannot justify 90 CAD (65 US dollars) purchase, to play with your son for another 10 years? What father are you?

I think it's nice that different planets are indeed different. Not all of them need enemys.

Re: "From Scratch" achievement for each new planet (except Aquilo)

No bots allowed sounds most resonable to me. Even without thinking of the possibility to chuck them in a recycler to effectivley import a whole lot of things other then "just construction bots"...

Re: Saving Productivity per Recipe



If it feels punishing to use your brain, use it some more and set the switching to happen only when enough cycles has be produced to gain the extra product. Should be possible with some more circuit magic. I don't know exacly how mind you, but I sure it's possible.

Re: Lightning Collector vs. Lightning Rod


So how about adding upgrading lightning rods -> collector as a mod? I think all what needs to be changed is to add next_upgrade="lightning-collector" to the rod item entity and then an upgrade planer can find it?


Considering they have different fotprints (1x1 vs 2x2) I'm guessing that would be ...

Re: Make promethium spoil, and quickly

I collect promethium in cargobays on my ship, not belts. Is it "efficient"? Probobly not. Do I care? Not at all.

I bring the prometium back to Nauvis where it's dumped to the surface, then it's shiped up to a different platform that does the science. Again, not efficient, but its my way and I like ...

You can drop them in the red water on Vulcanus. They even revard you with a happy "Pffft" sound when you do.

I have one of the keys pressed constatnly while taping the other repeatedly makeing their predictions allways way of. If there was forced canceling I'd have to actualy shift which key to press and risk not being in motion for a tick or two and thus get gooed by the worms/spitters.

Re: Coal Liquefaction

My gues would be that the spliters are triping you up. The inserters will pull from the top lane while the bottom lane will backup and prevent new coal from flowin in to that lane. So the througput of the red belt is artificialy reduced.

Try pulling directly from the belt without the spliters (long ...

Re: Belt Imunity rework if not redone



There sure are. I've never bothered with belt immunity (but I like that it exists as an option for thouse who want it), I often use the belts to run a bit faster around my base. Obviously this is mostly early game as remotview soon removes the need to move at all.

Re: Belt Imunity rework if not redone


Only downside of not having a separate button for it would be that if anyone actually doesn't want belt immunity. Period.
Are there any such people? I know some people just don't bother equipping it but do they actually like being affected by belts all the time?

There sure are. I've never ...

Re: Show range on existing mining drills when the player holds a drill

Sounds good to me. I often find my self musing over a big mining drill and try to find a good landmark to focus on at the edge of its range befor I switch over to trying to place the next drill. This would help with that (very mild but still) annoyance.
