I guess you make a lot of people very happy with this post - however I am a bit in fear of your definition of "soon" which has proven to be very stretchable
As always: Keep up the good work. I will check out the discord
I like to play with biters, too. However I always adjust my game in the following way:
Increase starting area to max Turn off time evolution factor Disable expansion Reduce evolution through pollution absorbed and nest killed by about 50% Use Modular turrets or equivalent by all means ...
I've hesitated to start over for about year now before the next mod goes live. But like always Pyanodon must take the time he needs to finish it in a the way he imagines it, and that's how we (masochists) like it :D
I think some of the recent changes in pY Raw Ores 1.7 made direct smelting more efficient than the first ore processing steps. Higher level processing seems ok somehow. Anyway: This needs a fix!
