press 'P'

it shows you consumption and production per second for your stuff, i think that's what you need

yea, but for freezer and stun turrets to not be OP they would have to have a reduced effect each time they hit a given target

idea goes like this, press L and if you're in a logistics network then information from the network is provided, this could just be a full list of what items are in the system(because i like to keep misc items in my storage, but that means that the logistics tool tip is too crowded to show everythin...

to kill the fun it could be made into a practical item, like a flashbang turret..... it could either stun or scare away the biters, place them over areas you don't have defence for but don't want the biters to go. they can't be perfect to prevent repulsor wall spam etc, but if they stun or scare the...

you think the great wall of china is would be better with laser turrets

basically a barrel of energy. made with batteries steel copper and plastic (or something else idk) it could be a 1 item stack which has a charged and uncharged version, works besides a charging station which either charges at the cost of energy or discharges to produce it, instead of long power line...

scout drones? which upgrade to assault drones and bomber drones later? (attack would use bullets for ammo and bombers would hold a rocket) add a combat drone bay and any drones put in it would automatically patrol that area, it could even be an upgraded form of radar

1.) Underground-Layer(s) interesting idea, at most i would have 1 under ground layer, but if i had the choice between another layer and limited terraforming i would choose terraforming 2.) Orbital- & Lunar-Layer pretty much the same as above 3.1.) Deep Drilling IMO this would work well with you...

just a few (hopefully) friendly suggestions. you said that you would spend a few minutes planning things out before your next episode, which is really good. the saying measure twice cut once works here i think, its better to double check than to take your base apart due to one small detail. so yea, ...

This is right, but there is no reason for not copy the drag behavior. Ok, there are much more important this. But: The unrealistic behavior is not part of gameplaybalancing. It wouldnt change much. Only be more intuitiv. i think i can see where you're coming from but i disagree, the trains operate ...

So basically make trains cars and wagons only build capable in an assembler like engines, Or have them built in a Vehicle yard, then have cranes which can then place them and maybe flatbed wagons to ship vehicles by train. For added bonus you could have artillery rounds for long range cannons, they'...

i would prefer liquid tanks for trains and the ability to put any liquid into barrels.
would sort me out just fine and it would let you barrel up whatever and move it by drone

each carraige can have 4 inserters per side, i would say just use one item type per inserter Max

It will be solved eventually when the player gets a boat.

for those who spawn on land too small for any entities maybe update the initial inventory to include enough wood for a single raft which moves painfully slowly

okay, what i noticed was that even though you have basic refining recipe you have it set up for advanced oil processing. now i KNOW that IRL adding water to things like that at the wrong part could ruin the process, BUT in the game could the incorrect starting input affect it at all? if the answer i...

i would like a kind of map beacon, you place it and put 1-4 items in it and it displays those on the map(similar image style to BP's) small usage of power and it acts like a GPS tag, and if you go to the map and mouse over it could have some display txt that you can choose (i.e "Primary Mine&qu...

starting area is clear of enemies and has guaranteed startup resources if i recall correctly

thats just cruel.
i know i will regret it, but unforgiving curiosity is worse than future regret
Pm it?

the ability to exclude things in BP placing could be useful. i.e holding shift when placing BP could simply place all the items that can be placed while excluding items which are red. but i agree with slay_mithros i use a modular design, usually with several versions first version is the most simple...

so, like adding a scale on the display on alt veiw to show the 5 full it is?
