Re: API Request: option to turn off lightning warnings on a surface

... of just on/off, I suggest being able to set the warning icon based on lightning type. That way, you can make it transparent, or another type of icon.

Lightning has a great potential to become a ton of things for modded planets. e.g. on a Dune project, we might plan to use that system for worms.

... you all the devs, for this masterpiece of a game!!

For me this is the best game: 9.9 rating. Why not 10?

Dynamic music. I love this so much on Dune 2 and it would be really awesome this in factorio, when biters group and attack changing to an more action music would be a dream.

Re: Well, Fulgora sucks [Spoilers]

So, enemies were removed from Fulgora because people might think it resembles Dune... really?? Don't worry about the fact that biters and spiters resemble zerglings and hydralisks. Enemies were removed from Aquilo because they slowed progress... Isnt that kind of the point? Vulcanus you kill a demo ...

Re: [2.0.6] Big Worms nigh unbeatable


I had maxed damage/shooting-speed for red + green + blue science with steel ammo.

I hesitate to even consider behemoth worms, which I haven't come to yet.

Cool! Very cool! I'm waiting for the release! And in the future, will you add more planets? How about a desert one, like Dune. Or a gas one? Toxic? Barren rocky ones? Radioactive underground?

the steam from the reactors is blowing towards the direction the ship is traveling. I know there is no friction in space, but the ship is moving. At least the steam should be being left behind as the ship moves forward even if the steam were to 'travel' of its own accord forward.

Re: Friday Facts #429 - Vulcanus Demolisher Enemies

The comparison to Dune's worm is inevitable, even without the "worms traveling across the sand" theme.


As for clearing out demolishers, hmm. Before deciding on a preferred combat method, I need to know more about the various resistances and other relative combat info.

In an ideal world, I would ...

Re: Friday Facts #429 - Vulcanus Demolisher Enemies



My comment on the creature... pretty much like for Dune movie, it doesn't make sense for a worm to move like a straight train on the surface. It cannot phisically work like that.
Snakes to move crawl, so they are not straight line but with lateral undulation... the S like thing.

Re: Friday Facts #429 - Vulcanus Demolisher Enemies

Dune enemies for the Dune planet, seems fitting. Are these worms aggro'd by artillery fire? Seems like a battery of cannons with some radars to help them might clear them quickly enough to remove the challenge.

Kinda reminds me of the TF2 Engineer intro: "use a gun. If that don't work, use more gun".

I get you're trying to avoid the dune comparison... but that's just not gonna happen. Also: Are these giant wormsnakes going to have any kind of similarities to the Nauvis turret worms?
