The way you suggested it, this would be entirely useless. Due to the research productivity research, which is additive with prod modules in your labs, the additional module slots will barely be profitable. Assumung legendary prod mod 3s, your total research per science pack on the normal bio lab is ...

And thats exactly whats causing your issue. You need to either let trains carry all the stuff between your bases, including the stuff needed for repair or clear out the biter bases in between.

My solution is usually to let them do their own thing with their section of the map, while answering any question they may have and giving advice if asked.

While that is happening, you start building your own base a bit away from them. You need to be a bit mindful of not completely outpacing them ...

Maybe a smaller and less balance upsetting change would be a third mode for rocket launches aside from logistic requests and manual launches, which could be like a semi-manual option.

Perhaps you could set requests for specific distinct items and distinct quantities of those items, much like with ...

you can enter map editor from the save by using \editor. Thus, any option you can do in map editor can be used just as easily on a save

You can press "L" to open our logistics network, which will probably tell you that the items are still there in storage chests (or other logisitic chests with requests) you forgot about. Items do not just vanish.

You should post a save file for anyone to even have a chance at finding out what ...

The current way to achieve this is to set up a request for an item with amount 0 and a minimal payload as you need it. That way, the automatic request for construction uses your minimum payload instead of the default full rocket. It still wastes rocket space, but it does get you an item you dont ...

No. I am using a ship travelling between nauvis and vulcanis for that purpose, as it gets way mor chunks per time then a very large space station.

The problem is that we can’t transmit two different signals via radar


You totally can send an arbitrary amount of differnt signals via radar. For simplicity, you could send signal A, if the tick is odd and B, if the tick is even using one control signal (ie a virtual signal not in use) to tell ...

Have you tried filtered storage chests instead of the buffer chests? Theyshould make bots put stuff back in the mall chests.

You need to set a fly condition, as it only flies towards the shattered planet until the condition is met

That works for everything, which is not part of the rocket part recipe, but only for that.

I had the same problem, the standard processing unit rocket capacity is like 55000 which is way to big, in the space platform window where you request stuff, when you adjust the amount of a request there is a tick box which lets you set a custum minimal rocket capacity. Just set that to something ...

Direct comparison. One is a legendary chest with normal item, the other a normal chest with legendary item. The quality of the chest is displayed on top of the item quality, blocking it.

One of these is a legendary steel chest containing normal electric poles and the other is a normal chest containing legendary electric poles. Can you tell which is which?

This might lead to a bug report or suggestion, as i have a very hard time telling them apart and it ...

laser turret range is 24. 4 of them close to the center should be enough for a 30x30 square, which take 900 foundations. Dont see the issue.

You know you can also kill a big demolisher with 900 gun turrets in a 30x30 square using red ammo and physical projectile damage 6. That was more of a let down then taking 2-3 shots (or one well placed) with the railgun. I think we are missing behemoth demolishers.

To me, big stompers being one ...

I support and expand it. I have to manually control the initial shipment of components to the platform so that the warehouse is built first and only then turn on automatic requests. Therefore, it is necessary to prioritize not only the foundation, but also the storage modules.

The currently ...

Lets say you need 1000 foundations, some solar panels and some laser turrets. If you launch 100 foundations, 50 panels+laser turrets, your defenses are probably up. If you strictly prio foundations, it takes 20 launches of foundations before any panels or lasers are up. That is a significant delay.
