Re: Friday Facts #374 - Smarter robots

These are excellent improvements, and fixing some of the minor inconveniences we've asked about. Thank you. Will this be in a bugfix? Or is it strictly part of the new content?

Do biters communicate? What do they call themselves?

So I was wondering... How intelligent are biters? Are they self aware? Can they communicate? What do they call themselves?

Do they have any internal social structure? Does their size indicate their intellect? If the engineer could speak their language, would they be hospitable to him?

Editor Extensions - How to edit oil patch?

I can add an oil patch, but I can't figure out how to increase the density of any specific deposit. They seem to spawn in at very low density no matter how I set the cursor. I would like to edit each spot individually, is that possible? Or I would like to create a patch that is neither a circle nor ...

Re: Combinator help please

Actually, that is exactly the solution that I found. I am keeping it all vanilla, so mod options don't help.
So unless there's somebody out there with a better idea, I guess it's as good as it gets.

Other than the tones, I'm not happy with the tones.

Re: Combinator help please

After some tinkering I got to this... It's my convoluted solution (definitely imperfect), but I need to turn on the lower constant combinator until the tree lights go off to reset. I would like the tree lights to be off by default. Then i turn on the countdown, then when it reaches "GO" it...

Re: Combinator help please

Ok, I know how to do some of that, so I built this.... BUT, I can't figure out how to make it STOP after reaching "GO". It just keeps cycling. Also, I am not good with sounds so any help on better tones? 0eNrtXVlv4kgQ/isjP67IrN2nQbv7sj9hIu0cipAhHbDGl3xkFo3479uGIZC2C7pITNJoXyLho2x/dX1VXXZ+e...

Combinator help please

Hello combinator geniuses,

I am looking for a 3...2...1... digital countdown with sounds (beep, beep, beep, boooop) and a christmas tree (like drag racing) display.

I am capable of some combinatorizations, but this one is baffling me.

Any and help is appreciated.

Re: Fluids are killing me

Just think of tanks as large pipes instead of large storage vessels. Fluid is distributed evenly through all connected pipes (including tanks). So if you have 50/100 units in a pipe you will have 12500/25000 in a connected tank ... over time. Use pumps to push fluids from one pipe network to the nex...
