So if I understand the mechanic correctly, the fussion reactor consumes cells and coolant only as needed and it doesn't waste them if the plasma buffer is full?

Nice display feature!
One thing I wish it to do: display a signal numerical value as a message. Just display the plain number, that's all. Or create a parametrized message where the number gets inserted into it

What about merch? Will merch store reopen? (edit: it is open now) I would love to have some Space Age gear at the launch

Could you make it such that lamps get +1 or +2 lighting range per quality level please?
It is anoying to build big powerpoles at their max range while keeping the space between them properly iluminated

If we want to give you as much support as we can, can we buy the expansion on your site and then claim it at the Steam store? (once it releases). Or do you just give the cut to Steam once I claim it there anyway? Also, I would like to give you more money. Please provide a way to do that. You are the...

Space Age launch party when?

We can finally place huge blueprints and still be able to use personal roboports such that we don't wait for personal bots to realise that they can build stuff. What a dream come true!

Is it possible to harvest and plant Nauvis trees on nauvis? What about (other trees) on other planets?

How about instead of moving the easily spoilable Science Packs to Nauvis, we instead move all the other Science Packs to Gleba! /jk

Might be actually reasonable

Once the science packs (or spoilable ingredients in general) spoil in the labs (or in other machines), where does the spoil go? Do labs have the same dump inventory as other machines?

What happens when not researching with Gleba science? The science is not being consumed so it will spoil and you need to constantly keep creating it (and delivering it) regardless of it being used. No more full belts of science packs for this one. A bit sad, although the mechanic itself sounds cool

I kept looking at the post over and over the whole weekend and I've come up to some personal conclusions: 1. Most things feel out of place. Most decoratives, doodads, trees and everything feel not integrated up to par with other planets (as you have said in the post). 2. The planet will be a quite a...

There is no doubt that the planet's science pack will require some chemicals processing. I would guess planet's special building will improve oil refining base productivity

Oh my God, can't wait for all the animations, life and sounds! I wish the ghostly biome was glowing in the night with many small sharp light sources, somewhat like fireflies leaves. Similarly like in the Avatar movie. When the planet is full of life, you might also show it during the night! <3

I wonder whether nukes in these are just a meme or if they can actually be used. Nobody wants to blow up his base

I predict that the next blog post is the third planet

Will you increase the pipe troughput? With so many buffs to belts, machines and beacons, pipes now seem to be a heavy bottleneck. Having either parallel pipes or pumps to force higher troughput to many thousands/s is very annoying In https://factorio.com/blog/post/fff-402 the foundry crafts 260 time...

I suggest that items in "used in" section should have colored background based on their research status. Researched items green, researchable yellow, unavailable red. Same could potentially go for all Factoriopedia places where items are displayed. Also, have you considered hiding items ti...

Hi devs, thanks for the statistics upgrade! Question, it appears that you have made 8 minor internal releases (hence the 1.2.8). Could you please briefly elaborate on the internal release process? What the internal releases brought? If I am asking for too much info as much of the mechanics are still...

Some people have said some guesses already Here is my take on the last two planets Planet 3 - Glebe, which isn't named after a God directly, but it refers to a land which is assigned to support the priest. So I would expect a lot of life on the planet, which would be concentrated around some kind of...
