Re: Foundation to prevent frost or/and spreed heat
I've never used foundation simply because by the time I've unlocked it, I've more or less completed the game.
This is my main issue with it. You have to build your Vulcanus and Fulgora base before you have foundation, which means that by the time you have foundation you don't need it because ...

Re: Upgrade planner needs option for Best quality available
Suggestions as per title. Please add the ability to drag the upgrade planner over stuff and let it use the best quality items the factory currently has available.
One of the major downsides of quality is that it adds a lot of micromanagement to upgrading stuff as better quality items become ...

Re: Make quality flair of container not be in same corner as item in container
It bugs me a bit that items in containers that are better than common sometimes get their quality flair overwritten by the container it's in.
Yes it's annoying, but how would you change it? The quality indicators have other inconvenient interactions as well, such as when you have multiple items ...

Re: I went back to 1.1
I can't play the game once I get off Nauvis. It's my third time getting out of Nauvis, made the nicest ever Nauvis base, everything prepared.
This bugs me also. I like some of the stuff on the new planets, but once you leave you essentially abandon the work you've done for an extended period ...

Re: Mech armor should extend reach
I'd be ok with a slight extension, but I think all the way to the edge of the screen is too much. It would make combat too easy.dmigowski wrote: Wed May 28, 2025 4:51 am I believe the mech armor should extend the reach of a player to the borders of the visible screen.

Re: Gleba has killed the game for me.
Thank you, I hope this can be the start of a more productive conversation.
It's difficult to explain all my thoughts, and they are distributed in different spots. One of the challenges in talking about this is that I don't know what the appropriate scope is for any proposed change, so I've ...

It's 3 ingredients because you need nutrients as well, and there are four outputs if you consider spoilage and the seeds from the mash/jelly production.

Re: Gleba has killed the game for me.
I've really enjoyed my time on Gleba (this time!)
It's interesting that you say "this time". Because I think a lot of the issues people have with Gleba are to do with the learning curve. There are a lot of new concepts thrown at you all at once in a high pressure environment, and you need to ...

In 1.0, the science you produced wasn't only an end in itself, but also a measure of the effectiveness of your factory. Space Age destroys the correlation between good factory design and measured output, because as long as you meet the minimum requirement of no jams, your ...

Re: [2.0.47] Circuit condition doesn't work for fluids when selected from crafting recipe using "q" key
Is there a save file i could take a look? It looks more like a player error than a bug in game.

Ah i see, it is easy to reproduce. The signal is an "Electrolyte" recipe, not an "Electrolyte" fluid.

[2.0.47] Circuit condition doesn't work for fluids when selected from crafting recipe using "q" key
When you use the "q" key to select a fluid from the recipe and click into the "enable/disable" condition, the icon will appear but the value won't be read. I tried this with electrolytes (EM plant) and holmium solution (chem plant).

You seem to fundamentally misunderstand the purpose of feedback and your role here, so let me explain.

Re: Gleba has killed the game for me.

I think it makes sense to add difficulty by adding new ways of having to balance various aspects of production and transportation even more than they started to do on Gleba. I love the sheer complexity of more items, but ...
