Re: Friday Facts #225 - Bots versus belts (part 2)

Brining back loaders given the changes to compression. Also let loaders load from trains onto a belt with no buffer? I think will be the end game less headache buff to belts. Doesn't really increase throughput for belts, but it would increase throughput from train to belt so you can easily make it e...

Re: Why defending is a dilemma and enemies need polish

Already present in mods. Huge UPS drain due to limits in the LUA interface. Sure, doesn't mean a version can't be implemented in the base game and a Vanilla implementation may be able to make optimizations that are not strictly bound my the Lua interface.

Re: Why defending is a dilemma and enemies need polish

For some reason, parts of my wants to have an RTS level automation of combat played from the radar view.

It occurred to me,depending on how difficult and time consuming it is to get the nuclear fuel, when the reactor overheats and melts down, the reactor destroying all fuel currently loaded could be a sufficient penalty for the player. As a player I would have to balance the keeping a well fuel reactor...

Re: Friday Facts #164 - Nuclear power

I would rather see a more realistic portal of an overheat over a denotation of the reactor. I'm also just echoing people who have far more knowledge on this subject.

Re: Friday facts #151 - The plans for 0.14

The Highlights of nuclear power could come from other parts of the process - Enrichment - Reprocessing Reprocessing may introduce interesting logistical considerations because this is something different from other fuel sources, by forming a cycle.
