Re: They need to rename Gleba to Bartleby
Look, speedrunning is an exercise in complete mastery of a game. If you are worried that your gleba factory breaks you need to get better at gleba, not have the game made easier for you. Spoilage is entirely deterministic, theres no randomness fucking you over. If your approach to not do bacteria ...

Re: Remote restart of Gleba?
Separate solar powered electricity circuit that insertes stored fuel. Either onto the usual belt with burner inserters, or in seperate heaters that deliver steam through pipes to the usual turbines.

Re: Train - control by interuption
Filling all trains with only 1 type of resource only happens if you take the trains out of the loading stations while there is no open unloading station. If you just let them sit there its a nonissue.

You could add an additional condition for the waiting interrupt "and not at station waiting area", that should fix the flickering at least.

Re: I don't like the trigger tech
But... everything behind oil, needs oil. ou can have a chest or two buffer your science flask production and if you are really going from no oil t building your infrastructure faster than your labs research then put down another 15 or so of them. It's really not a problem

Re: I don't like the trigger tech
If you are not using the stuff the trigger gives you, why do you go out of your way to get it already? Just let it rest until you are ready to engage with it?

Re: Quality Gating is flawed
I do also think locking quality levels (not just legendary) behind tech unlocks is not good. My argument centers around the fact that researching those higher levels instantly breaks all earlier builds one made that use quality intermediaries because those will now clog up with quality ingredients ...

Scrap being an everything mix is like three quarters the point of Fulgora. If your gonna seperate it out straight up making it worse and more boring.
I don't think enemies are necessary. We got biters on nauvis, worms on vulcanus and pentapods on gleba, its fine to have some peacful places.

Re: "Import from planet..." setting defaulting to the planet that the platform is currently orbiting
I think an even better way to do this would to have items that can be crafted anywhere defaulting to the current planet, while items that have crafting, or spawn (for ores and their immediate intermidiaries) places restrctions default to the planet where they can come from.

Re: My attempt at generic stations
If you're wanting trains to replace belts, you need to direct-load from them. It only really works if the same station reveives multiple products.
Pre-2.0, I would have a train with cargo wagons that I restricted the individual slots on, which would go around and pick items up to drop off. Say, a ...

Re: Foundries instead of furnaces on Nauvis?
I think fluid wagons actually have a slightly lower carry capacity for iron plates (in the form of molten iron) than normal cargo wagons. With the 50% productivity bonus on foundrires they can carry 3750 plates, while a normal cargo wagon does 4000. However this in my opinion is easily outdone by ...

It's 1 calcite to 50! ore, and once its smelted you are in pipes and can do with it as you please. And founrification increases speed and productivity massively. Flying in a bit of calcite from vulcanus (500 per rocket) in an automated transport is super cheap and gives huge result. It's also very ...

Re: My attempt at generic stations
"dropoff stations that can handle multiple products " is a new requirement that changes things majorly.
And yeah, of course you can have fewer trains if you load them only when required, but why do you care about that? Trains are cheap and easy to build.

Re: My attempt at generic stations
Not even that.
If trains are sitting "idly" in pickup stations waiting for somewhere to drop off their stuff thats fine. Reducing response time improves throughput.
If more dropoff stations are open than you can currently supply that means your supply throughoput is bottlenecked and no kind of ...

Re: Mining requires fluid depending on drill
Oh combining an assembler and a drill sounds like a very good approach so far!
I assume I would have to check the status of the assembly machine every [duration of recipe] ticks? I don't think I saw any on_finished_crafting event or such.
