but isn't the easiest solution just to have more accumulators ? and anyway, you get to nuclear so fast that you might as well skip solar all together for the most part on Nauvis. it might prove more useful on Volcanus so I wouldn't not research it, but I think that's just about it,


My current ...

A way to increase roboport charging points would be nice. Even 3x Mk2s only charge 12 robots at a time. I have definitely experienced laying out a blueprint and then having to stand and wait for robots to queue up recharging near the end.
Or - even better - have them re-enter inventory and charge ...

You'll have to run around and mine Tungsten ore by hand(robot) for a while, dropping it off at an assembler to combine with charcoal (from coal) to make Tungsten Carbide. Carbide allows foundries and then big miners. Once you get about 5 foundries, everything gets much easier as you can direct-cast ...

I agree. This is a good change.

Every time I have to deal with bad commercial software I am mentally comparing their laziness, bloatware, and carelessness against Wube.

I usually watch the first launch, and then more launches if I can. It's fun to send 4 rockets up at once.

The ability to hook into an electrical grid to recharge armor would be nice.

I'm playing a Vulcanus first start, so I have no onboard power for my mech armor except solar even though I've got factories running on Vulcanus, Fulgora, and Gleba.

I don't use the shotgun ever... because it damages my base. A rebalance might make it actually useful.

TL;DR
Remove the overly complex and wasteful steps required to take sulphuric acid back to sulphur


What?
Add a recipe allowing sulphuric acid to be distilled into solid sulphur. A secondary byproduct could be water, steam, or heavy oil - or none at all.

Why?
If you're doing science on ...

you can go even smaller if you're willing to sacrifice some resolution(and CPU cycles)
could probably use a log scale instead of the arbitrary thresholds but that would take some thinking

Thanks... I think I sort of get it?

Thanks!
I take it the "memory cell" is the second combinator, the one that sends and receives the same number? Its job is only to hold a "The value in the system now is X"?

So the overall logic is:

The system has Y amount of product X with a target value of Z.
The input (arm/belt) is set to input ...

I have copied this string from a Reddit post, but I don't understand what's going on.

The OP (fofz1776):

Sushi belts are belts that carry more than two different items. Sushi can make ...

Yellow rockets work about as well (unless you have a high density asteroid field) and take fewer resources to make. Just a thought.

No, I just put them on the edges and weak points of my Shattered Planet ship where they were more likely to be destroyed and need replacement. I'm still figuring out how to build to get past about 100k.

I dumped in some quality modules and just let it run. I built my ship with regular railguns, and then went back and upgraded later.

I think a quality locomotive going faster would be great!

I look for what direction I can build a main bus (although with SA the bus is far less important). Starting on the 2nd playthrough of SA, which I'm still on, I also leave gaps in my factory so I have room to add things later, like pipes for molten metals, room to swap green and red circuit ...

You can use it for oil cracking and rocket fuel, sure, but you're not doing that because you have to, but because you want to.
Wait, what?

That explains why oil processing never got a building upgrade!
And that explains the fish growing tech for Nauvis...to make nutrients for more efficient ...
