If I hit it, it dies.

I want a mod that will automatically mark for harvest any tree, rock or cliff that I run a vehicle into.

Re: Friday Facts #321 - Countdown

So after you launch the game officially, aren't you going to start over from scratch and see if you can launch again in less time, and without lasers?

[0.17.68] Visual bug, plants over car

https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/765 ... 0085399010

If it helps, I backed the car into that spot and if I back up a little farther the plants drop under the car.

Re: Bugs & FAQ

Just a quick one: For Fermentation Process, the recipes show acetic acid as the result of anaerobic fermentation and ethanol as the result of aerobic fermentation, when it should probably be the reverse ( "Because yeasts perform this conversion in the absence of oxygen, alcoholic fermentation ...

Re: Rails could track how often they're used

Do you really mean "how many locomotives have passed" or rather "how many times did some locomotive pass"? I always find numbers like these irritating. Absolutely. What I care about is traffic, which means every pass by any locomotive should count. Your public transit organizati...

Rails could track how often they're used

It would be really nice to have a record of how much traffic went down a particular rail.

Turrets already track how many things they killed, and assemblers track how many things they've made.

Wouldn't it be awesome if tracks tracked how many locomotives have passed?

Re: Version 0.17.21

Beta means feature complete and 1.0 means an acceptably debugged beta. But the definition of feature complete depends on which features are deemed necessary. Traditionally, it would be all the features originally slated for the app, but with a game, it's easy to "discover" new features tha...

Re: [0.17] Remove military science from power armor Mk2 and portable fusion reactor research

throw a ton of shields in it and it might as well be armor anyways. Right. And that's why I said it would be incompatible with shields. I don't see how separating them is necessary. The power armor just gives you the equipment grid. All the military stuff you can put it in still requires military r...

Tech queues feel very unfinished

I appreciate the tech queue as implemented and it's a huge help to reduce interruptions and let me focus on building the base. I absolutely LOVE the orange color for techs that aren't available yet, but will be when the current queue is done. That rocks! Just a couple little ideas to make them easie...

Re: [0.17] Remove military science from power armor Mk2 and portable fusion reactor research

The utility abilities of power armor need to be separated from the military abilities. That could be done with a "power suit" item mark 1 and 2 as a cheaper alternative to power armor. It wouldn't have the defense of power armor and wouldn't accept laser defense or shield modules. Since Po...

Re: Friday Facts #280 - Visual Feedback is the king

I have an idea (I hope it wasn't already suggested) When you add a temporary station, if the player is in the train, make the train wait until the play exits the train. If the player isn't in the train, make the train wait until the player enters the train. Not sure if just trolling or just need gl...

Re: Moving and transporting full chests

The car is not a substitute. To use the car to move a chest, you have to EMPTY the chest into the car. You have two options to move things by car: 1. Repeatedly fill up your inventory and dump it into the car (and ditto the other way at the other end OR 2. Let inserters fill and empty the car. The f...

Hand-Truck for moving full boxes

TL;DR A hand-truck / dolly / stack truck / sack truck would improve my quality of life. What ? It would be an item that could be applied to a full chest, similar to a repair tool. The effect would be to create a mobile (vehicle) version of the chest that the player could move to its new location wi...

Suggestion: Chests should output the number of empty slots

TL;DR When connected to a logic network, there should be an option for chests and boxes to output the number of empty slots. Why ? Creating a wiring network to tell how much space there is available in a chest is complicated and depends partly on what's actually in it. For train stations, it's freq...
