Re: [0.17.0] Picking up items from ground doesn't work

can confirm cannot pick items off ground. save and reload does not fix issue.

Edit: can confirm this doesn't work in multiple games. save load. anything to do with the "F" key was cleared and still wouldn't work.

Re: Train connection bonus

I think this is an interesting idea. And one way to make a huge train without using a pile of engines. But i think the bonus would have to be calculated by engine vs cargo. So a 2-4 would only barely be out run by a 5-10 so eventually you run into a point where you cannot get any bigger.

Re: Did no one else notice massive nerf of tank in 0.17?

I just did a PLD mrkII build. Two fusion cores, night vision, two mrkII batts, five mrkII shields, ten PLDs. I never got touched. Walk to biter nest, Slow and steady, and i never lost a single hitpoint of health. Now my evolution is not to the point of mass behemoths yet. I get the very occasional b...

Re: Coal liquefaction energy efficiency

Liquifying coal is good, when you are low on oil, which is relativly common with the map generation now. Especially midgame when you lack the capacity to do massive explorations to find more oil. There is also plenty of coal on the map and liquyfying it is a good way to get rid of unwanted coal pat...

Re: Did no one else notice massive nerf of tank in 0.17?

I think a lot of it boils down to how the tank gets squishy in the late game vs the mrk II power armor. What if we made the vehicle grid the end all of the tank? We get something on the par of an oversized version of the mrk2 armor, say 16x20. Have an "early game" engine block (solid fuel ...

Re: All turrets should require circuits

The only thing I think is, if going by this logic, all turrets would also need power. The purpose of the gun turret is to not use power, so it does not use electronic circuits. we have magic eternal unpowered transport belts.... and your complaining about unpowered turrets? I do agree with OP thoug...

Re: When mining drills run out of expected resources, they should mark themselves for deletion

Why would your inventory get cluttered up by this? wouldn't it go to the storage chests of your outpost's roboport network? I make very rarely bot networks at my mining outposts and never during endgame phase when there is hundreds of miners. But I see your idea. It is not big work to put storage c...

Re: When mining drills run out of expected resources, they should mark themselves for deletion

Reading Amarula's post, I am reminded that there is at least one solid exception... automatic removal of uranium ore mining drills could break the sulfuric acid supply pipeline . I believe that the mod does that specifically for uranium mines for that reason. That said, you can probably run a pipe ...

Just add another one preparing time "reload_time" to all ammo weapons, by default is 0.

Re: Express train lanes?

Off topic: I wonder. Could we get a signal that mimics the station penalty but not act as a signal? Or a way to force a chain signal or rail signal to do the same via the circuit network. It sounds like it's possible to do in game. As for designating a "fast lane" you could abuse chain sig...
