I just realized something, the radars dont just check for the expansion party do they. They probably also check if the expansion chunk on the expansion overlay is flashing.

Would that mean that if the expansion party goes to the chunk and by chance ONLY puts nests on the chunks AROUND that chunk ...

Any chance while you're at it, to make it so expansion units have to stand where a building is to be built, so that, a, it clearly mutates into the structure, and B, they can't teleport past cliffs?

that said, looks good. and I can just imagine Michel Hendricks having to find a new solution for his ...

in all seriousness, unless you also make sure that recycling to liberate biter eggs from module is also prevented or discouraged somehow, this won't really be sufficient.

at least, that is my understanding.

TL;DR
Use random item sprite per layer on a belt Stack

What?
Instead of a stack using the same sprite repeated up to 4 times, use one of the random available sprites, so that stacks of ore look disorderly instead of, uh, stacks of paper.

(Poor paint.net mockup)

Why ...

I suppose you could reduce how many big rocks were in the starting area to compensate.
but, well, you still only have so much before you have to go find a real deposit.

I suppose the alternative should be used then. a demolisher corpse trail should be in the starting area instead. cause of death, unknown.

TL;DR
Show the quantity of items in a Logistics Network or Space Platform on the Hotbar

What?
When you are in Megamap mode, whatever network your camera/cursor is closest to (or whatever other criteria makes sense) Your hotbar should show the quantity of items that are in the relevant network ...

TL;DR
Projectile Damage upgrade should no longer boost Turret Damage

What?
Physical projectile damage should no longer provide a secondary boost to turret damage. Instead, the bonus should be fully applied to physical projectiles.
Due to the two being cumulative, you do need to do some ...

So, it's less that there is less waste, than each tier of refining unlocking new ore types, and more control for previous tiers. At least from What I recall.

Like, crushed sorting was, like, 4 crushed to 2 iron, 1 copper, 1 slag. But refine that, don't recall Whst into, and you can turn 4 refined ...

TL;DR
Swap splitter priority ui top and bottom

What?
Switch the position of the input and output splitter priorities.
Splitter orig.png

Why?
If a splitter faces north, the input is in the bottom, and the UI input is in the top. And the output on top, UI on bottom. But, the ...

I can't imagine not using steel furnaces. Yes, Electric furnaces, once you get them up and running, outperform them in many ways. However, steel furnaces, you can make way earlier, and can just upgrade your entire forge inplace, along with turning the belts from yellow to red, and instantly double ...

I agree that the train default is suboptimal in some ways, but how is 5 seconds not long enough for you to react? Or are you just trying to tell the trains to stop? In that case, why not turn them to manual mode?

I suspect that, if you really wanted to, utilize a tank (assuming you can't read a ...

I know how probabilities work, no need to be condescending by telling me that what i am seeing is not what i am seeing.


Given the ratio should be 1:1, it is likely that you have recycled a sufficiently huge quantity for the gamblers ruin varient (dunno the name) to have biased it in one ...

There are a bunch of issues. The biggest is that we ALREADY had quality, in a sense, since that is literally the whole point of having T1-T3 assemblers or modules. But, the difference is that you have to use not just more resources, but different resources and longer chains.

The random nature isn't ...

The basic idea is to use the same cardinal controls as a player does. However, this isn't exactly straightforward, for several reasons.

The basic idea is that you capture the wasd input, and get a cardnal direction one of 8, and the car turns towards that direction and accelerates. If it is a ...

I 'think' you are correct, i'm not 100% sure, i think it could happen a situation where "no fuel" is consumed, and suddenly 2 fluid at the same time reach 25K threshold and are available, which could have been avoided if one had been consumed before. I am not sure that is possible to happen ...

Yep. That is the other problem.
But, well, if that happens in the first place, you aren't producing enough fuel of any type, so no matter what you do, power will run out regardless.

Currently, I am using the idea from a design from the discord

Each fluid fills a tank and an sr latch opens the pump at 25k and closes below 1k. Ensures it floods the system whenever a fluid caps out, but shuts when little is left.

Aside from no prioritization between fluid types it seems to ...

Or at least add a leeway, where you have the top 20% or something during which it gives full yield.
