Re: Version 2.0.31

Has the Issue of "Landmines cause Space Platforms to have Donut Holes" Issue been addressed yet at all? I do not think I have seen anything mentioning that Issue in the changelogs of the past months.

Please note that I am not talking about the nerf part of that change back then, i am talking about ...

Re: Which Recipes are NOT affected by the Productivity Cap of +300%?



Ah thanks for that one, it contradicts what people on Reddit said about Scrap Productivity being supposedly uncapped, but there the cap is, easily visible once reached. >.>

Re: Deconstruction Planner limited to 30 slots, WHY???


The number of slots is easilly changed with one line of lua code:

data.raw["deconstruction-item"]["deconstruction-planner"].entity_filter_count = 100


Which is what my mod https://mods.factorio.com/mod/unmerge-deconstruction-planner does (along with improvements to what get's merged).

Re: Version 2.0.25

So not even a fix for the new Space Platform Donut exploit that the previous Version introduced?

I dont mind the Landmine nerf that much, but please at least fix the unintended exploit you introduced.

Re: [Rseding91] [2.0.15] Demolishers take a disproportionate amount of cpu time


If there isn't radar coverage and there aren't any player-created structures in the territory there isn't any way for the player to know what the demolisher is doing, so for all intents and purposes it doesn't matter whether it's asleep or patrolling.

Note: Radars can have a LOT of range even ...

Legendary Big Power Poles can help with that one, and a bunch of Tesla Turrets can kill a Big Demolisher quite easily.

Would people be complaining so much about the Landmine change if..... they had required Gravity to begin with ? Or if Landmines were completely removed from Space now, since they're "land mines"? :twisted:

Re: Version 2.0.24



The problem with Biters hatching is usually that it is near impossible to clear Biter Eggs off of the Belts/Cryoplant/Hub after the collected Promethium ran out, so at least a dozen or so Biters will hatch no matter what, hundreds if you have Nauvis resupplying Biter Eggs once the station goes ...

Re: Version 2.0.24


Land mines on space platforms now damage the space platform tiles in a radius

this is rather big change and will break lots of people ships & games leaving really bad taste when they realise new patch broke their builds half way between planets etc

I think it's too late for this change in 2.0 ...

Re: Version 2.0.24


Mines should only destroy tiles that are on the edge of the ship (in other words, tiles that don't create holes). This would prevent the common cheese of using it against asteroids while allowing the use for biters. It also makes some sense because the structure should be less sturdy around the ...

Re: [Rseding91] [2.0.15] Demolishers take a disproportionate amount of cpu time


You can simply have your friends kill all of the demolishers if it's that big of an issue for you. Or slow down the game speed to allow your computer to keep up.

The root issue is just that *they take a lot of CPU time* because they always exist once uncovered until killed. That was part of their ...

The main intention for the cloud can't be disclosed yet, but if Vulcanus is your first planet then the additional effect won't affect you.
The Cloud undoes the Mech Armors Flight Ability, that was why.

Re: Landmines, the underestimated weapon against pretty much anything


I didn't forget, but I chose not to include quality. I don't have the DLC, but going off the numbers on the wiki, legendary flamethrower turrets have a range of 45, so they are still out-ranged by behemoth worms. And I assume quality worms would have even more range.

Re: Landmines, the underestimated weapon against pretty much anything


My problem with landmines is they need roboports. Roboports need a fully automated tileable defense station with a train configured to supply them with whatever they need. I don't want to do that work and if I do it then I'm probably so lategame that I don't really need the efficiency of landmines ...

Re: Landmines, the underestimated weapon against pretty much anything

I seem to remember that not being a thing in 1.1

It definitely was a thing in 1.1, I actually used that.

It is even slightly annoying for Landmines placed outside of Roboport Range, because they all leave Ghosts behind all the time, which then get rebuilt whenever you get close to them with your ...

It's just a roboport which has its construction/repair coverage (the green area, though the orange area works too) covering defenses.

Re: Landmines, the underestimated weapon against pretty much anything


The main reason I don't use landmines is because there's no way to automate them. You have to manually replace them every time they are used. I get to laser turrets as quickly as I can (and then defense is finished), but even before laser turrets, you can at least automate regular turrets in ...
