So using that mindframe I could ask what is the point of logistic bots? Apart from looking cool and making things neater. Because you can do the same job with belts.

It could be useful for example you could have iron plates in one side going away from your furnaces and iron ore on the other side going towards them.

So you essentially have one belt doing the job of two.

Nicely done. I liked the overall layout you made and how you used belts to designate roads for your car. Have to say though that I did chuckle when you crashed it twice.

Not saying your design wouldn't work, obviously it would and the chances of the accumulators running out of power is probably 1 in a million. The only point I'm making here is that a dedicated power supply is the only way to guarantee that the inserters won't run out of power.

It seems that even with BurnHard's design, if the accumulators run out of energy(as unlikely as that is considering how much power inserters use) you'll be in the same situation. Seems the dedicated power supply is the only solution at the moment. Actually, BurnHard's design is using a dedicated po...

I think the only thing you can do, as you already said is to give the inserters a dedicated power source.

I don't think there is any other way to do it, not yet at least.

+1 This would be useful on this very memory heavy game, but seems more like something they'll probably do when they are close to releasing the game.

You can kill the large biters with machine gun + armor piercing rounds without any upgrades. It's not impossible and doesn't take long. As for turret spamming, yeah it's lame in my opinion but it all comes down to how the player wants to play. Okay maybe in multiplayer it shouldn't be allowed but in...

You need to use them as well because when your tanks fill up it will stop production which will stop the production of your petroleum gas as well. I think there is some way to feed it into your boilers to replace the coal, though I can't remember if you can feed it in raw or if there is some recipe ...

Indeed that screen is very confusing and not user friendly.

I think the explosive rockets do splash damage so even though they do less damage to one target they do more damage in total when hitting multiple targets grouped together.

I know right? Who cares about pollution when we have laser defense turrets with maxed out firing speed and damage?

Reminds me of a zerg rush.

So I thought I'd try to find just how many biters I could get chasing after me.. this is how far I got before they started to glitch out and stop chasing.

Is that we're actually playing one of the bad guys in an alien invasion from Earth. If you think about it.. You go to this planet, consume its natural resources and cause pollution by running your factories 24/7. All so you can get the planet ready for 'colonists' from Earth. And the biters? They're...

Hi CherryKiss, that's no problem. Thanks for watching! If only for a moment.
