Let's be honest here. Who actually uses the asteroid reroll recipe in a serious, non quality way? Every single corner of space has an abundance of all 3 rocks, and if you have too many of one type the reroll only has a 20% chance of getting the type you need. There is very little practical need ...

Now I see diagonal rocket nozzles and can't unsee it :cry:

I know, right? It's bugged me for years. I'm honestly surprised more people don't complain about it; there's got to be a lot of overlap between this game's playerbase and KSP, so we should have plenty of ...

Okay, I see now. Then what you should do is make a feature request, since as far as I know enabling and disabling an entity based on an internal condition has never been a thing, aside from trains. It’s either a logistics condition or a circuit condition, and until you connect a wire a circuit ...

If you want bots to take a break from delivering to a chest, you need to define a high threshold where they stop delivering, like 200. Then you need to define a low threshold where they start delivering again until they hit the high threshold again, like 100.

So once the chest hits 200 items, it ...

Yes, but in the case of constant consumption, and on legendary factories and on legendary lighthouses with legendary speed modules, the drones will fly constantly. If you need to produce items on 150 slabs and don't need any more, the drones will only bring items when you need them, but if you don ...

Fulgora has extremely rich patches on small vault islands, and poorer ones on the medium sized city ones.

Do you have examples of something being suppressed?

This is not a good idea, since it can break set ups that rely on the logistics area being a specific size. It would turn higher quality roboports from being a simple drop in replacement to one where you have to adjust the build to make sure that areas that are supposed to be disconnected stay that ...

I’ve never used a flamethrower turret. Doesn’t seem to have caused me any problems.

Share a picture, blueprint, or save so we can take a look.

I build with the fastest belt I currently mass produce. It’s not worth my time and attention to decide which belt type to use in every situation.

Every inserter has been capable of filtering for as long as I’ve been playing. The only change is that we now have manual control over filters for all inserters.

Even without explicitly set filters, an inserter has always been capable of taking only the correct items from a belt for the machines ...

For me, the main thing the one pad per planet limit accomplished was to disincentivize me from dealing with bulk interplanetary logistics at all. I don't like the idea of using bots for primary logistics and I'm not a circuit expert, so that already pretty sharply limited what I would be able to do ...

Could the description of the achievement be updated to reflect this requirement?

whatever is wanted, the bots deliver it in exactly the quantity desired, as long as there's no room.


This is only true for logistics to the player. For delivery to chests the bots will always pick up their maximum load, even if this will result in an oversupply. Since bots in an unmodified game ...

So, I’ll stick to the steel furnaces until I have unlimited power. I don’t want to use solar panels, and I want to keep my coal consumption low.

Efficiency modules mean that electric furnaces consume less power and therefore less coal.

There is nothing called arc furnace or blast furnace in Space Age.

There are the stone, steel, and electric furnaces. The first two are 2x2 and the electric is 3x3.

Then there is the foundry, which is not a furnace and does not run furnace recipes. It is 7x7.

What mod are you using?
