Everytime I open a save I had sheveled I think the same thing.

Was I drinking when I did this factory? Why is that train line there? Who in the hell setup that oil system. Etc etc

I'd like to think I've just gotten better at the game with each save i start and and each new playstyle I chose lol.

1. Atomic bombs are great.
2. Atomic energy is great.
3. Atomic ammo is great.

And I bet this keeps any amount of the above supplied nicely

The actual reason for the thread was, copy pasting the same mining drill BP is what you do all game so there's no change, and hence no progression. And in my mind there's no progression because you only have 1 kind of mining drill. By adding more like the bucket wheel mod does you have to think more...

Sadly, D/T fusion is the only kind they are willing to try because hydrogen does bad things in are atmosphere...

Fusion reactors can't for physical reasons ever be net-positive at human-size scale. I'm sure your wisdom would be most useful to the people who inject nowadays billions into research and developpment for small scale fusion power generators :mrgreen: . I am pretty sure, the people taking that billi...

I know this sounds odd but is there any way to heat water from ambiant(15°C)? The reason I would like to know is because I'm doing some testing of large scale Reactors(16+) and this would really boost efficiency and help in compacting size by giving me options for more compact stacks of heat exchang...

Make the fusion reactor perform a thermonucular explosion with atomic bomb radius and strength on player death.

Omg yes, except if you got killed by a train in the middle of your base......

Would love to see atleast the personal chaingun as a parallel to the personal defense lasers maybe even a prereq for it. The personal minlayer is interesting however you could just use the personal roboport for that. Anyhow I do believe powersuits need alittle updating like fusion reactors should be...

Well wouldn't a 3x3 be double the power of a 2x2?

So I know this sounds dumb but has anyone tried a 3x3 reactor? So 8-9 reactors in a square. With or without the middle reactor( my thinking would be the center would act as a booster to either jumpstart the whole system or to add additional heat when needed, and yes I know it would have to be loaded...

This might sound a little dumb but when I do this I usually have a grand station of sorts where all trains stop and trade with other production lines so every smaller factory is built around 1 train and I just add more train/factorys as needed and all trains are fueld at the gs

How about artillery wagons? I find artillery turrets rather useless. Simply build one artillery train and a resupply station. Then have it drive around your base with 200s inactivity per stop or so. It's too bad you can't connect a station to a radar and have it "enable if alien present". Those tra...

So I know that long Walls have been the norm for a long while, but now with artillery the way we defend has been changed.
So do you use artillery forts or long static walls for defense. Please share I would like to know

Mostly after science changes really. Or depending if I want to start a new main playstyle like sub facotries, death world or railworld.

Much as needed! A player who build small, don't need many buslines. If u always build really big, u cannot say u need X number of Lines. Because it's always too few. Normally i build 8 Iron 8 copper 4 steel. But i expand the lines from time to time. So, much as needed is the right answer. :D Not as...

Uhm, they kinda upgraded the solar panels significantly. Like, they went from ~1/6th of a reactor to roughly 1/2th of a reactor. 160kw to 480kw out of 750kw. The modular armor isn't nearly as crappy as it used to be, because it doesn't use blue circuits. Try the new version now. Back before when I ...

Why have an arbitrary number of belts that you stick to? If a recipe calls for 10 iron and 5 circuits and makes 1 product, then you do 10 belts iron and 5 belts circuits for each belt of product you want. every assembler line whose products have indefinite demand, ie anything for science, gets dedi...

Search for, and necro old posts before making a new one in the future. Uhm, they kinda upgraded the solar panels significantly. Like, they went from ~1/6th of a reactor to roughly 1/2th of a reactor. 160kw to 480kw out of 750kw. The modular armor isn't nearly as crappy as it used to be, because it ...

So does anyone else feel that suit solar panels suck, and fusion reactors are the only option and make the first power armor usless and the MK 1 kinda lackluster? Can't they add a middle ground like a large solar panel that take up 4 spots but acts like 10 little ones, like MK 2 batteries, to add to...

I like everything about 0.17
All the new art and styles looks good
Tool bars are awesome now
And Biters are an actual challenge that opens up more options for using green tech and basic power suits for combat, good work devs
