Cryptonomicon (Neal Stephenson) is one of my all-time favorites i think really blew my mind that one. My all time favorite book of all time favorite books (of all times) :lol: Think I have read it at least 4 times and I'm still not tired of it. Though I wouldn't put it in the scifi genre, as it's 2...

I still remember my "set your own goals stage" from early 0.16 Some YouTuber I followed did the Lazy Bastard run and I wanted to try that. Taught me a lot about automating everything. A few thousand hours later, with a detour doing overhaul mods, "speedrunning" (<8h)and writing m...

My desire to play DSP is at -1 now. I could test it on my "semi-decent" PC over the weekend and it seemed ok My gf´s PC might have an onboard gfx card, because i cant imagine it being so slow without anything automated happening. My guess is on the 3D world thats causing a dia show. I for...

You build a CPU yourself.

The 2nd reply here sums my thoughts about it. Factorio can run on a toaster. Since I'm stuck at my gfs place for a while, I started a new map in factorio, which runs a smooth 2kspm on her steam powered PC. DSP is a Dia show, without even first science automated. It looks nice from what I've seen on ...

[...] Given the time I played Factorio, the high enjoyment level, and given what I've paid for, I wouldn't feel robbed even if I pre-paid for an expansion pack that never came. Factorio is one of the very few games for which I got so much bang for my bucks that I wouldn't see preordering as a risk,...

A new game wouldn't need to be Factorio 2.
Maybe something completely different.

I'd love to see you take on something like ONI, lots of (pseudo) physics.
Because you care a lot about optimizing and that example is horrible when going big, nothing compared to Cracktorio

Its like cleaning the kitchen properly, so you can start cooking something fresh. More about that next week!

New Wube project confirmed.
Confirmed in a way that article confirmed a buggy game, but it's on the internet now, must be true.

Looking awesome. Only played like 30 minutes or so, but looking at the tec tree, I think that's what I always wanted. Was already thinking of reconfiguring Angels abit for my own pleasure, I guess you saved me 2 years of my time What I couldn't figure out yet: why alien biomes? For the masses of roc...

I'm sure there will be answers that say X is the right amount. But to me it always depended on design, not optimizing. I like having them symmetrical, and most of the time I include big power poles (or substations) in between them. Also, when creating BP books, I like the rails to be chunk aligned, ...

Congratulations And a huge thank you. You showed the world how a game should be made and more importantly, how to build a great community. The communication between the players and devs should be a Master class in game development courses. Not playing that much lately, but I've always followed FFF e...

The mixing is still prevented in the most common cases, It just the cases like a mod defined fluidbox connection force placed with a rotated blueprint of a upgradeable entity of another force during a full moon will not longer mix and force a crash. Instead if there is some really weird case where ...

And then we draw the rest of the owl. Fix places where the automated cloning hasn’t been good enough, add more ruins to be explored, tweak the gameplay and we will have a finished scenario. Klonan, how sad are you that, so far, noone read careful enough to notice this masterpiece? :lol: owl.jpg

I might have been tired and read "you have to have one central depot" I might also get slighty triggered by people thinking that everything needs to start working "NOW!", like the already full deliveries. It evens out in the long run. Once you get it running, it doesn´t really ma...

ive recently picked up Angels again, after someone told me Bio got some love. Specificly he said modules use it ive tried it with and without Bob´s modules (without it its just vanilla ones) and i cant see anything coming out of alien material thats useful for modules. its stuck at some crystal whic...

I prefer TSM for a few reasons - .. Trains are full when the station requests them (unlike LTN which has to send a train to fill when a request is placed) You can place depots near to requester stations for quicker unloading (unlike LTN which does not know where the next delivery will be, so you ha...

afaik the only buildings that changed in size are the rocket silo and offshore pumps you may run into some removed items, like the pickaxe mentioned above you also need rebuild for the changed reciepes, almost of them changed except for the basics like plates, red/green science and buildings. but i ...

The button is in the shortcut bar. If you can not find it there, check its configuration. It took me a while to find this and i dont like it. A BP library without an import button? Wanting everything in the shortcut bar just because its awesome is a bad idea imho. Even if you are used to work with ...

all of the above but go back one step and look at the intersections themself. Maybe the signals are just wrong? Also, when i first started with trains, i got the signals pretty quick, but what kept my main lines blocked some times, was to not have enough room to park trains after they left the main ...
