Maybe That Is A Sign

"Don't call me that" I said for what seems like the hundredth time. I idly wonder if it's hit two hundred yet. He smells of cheap coffee and his brutish, beady eyes look at me, mocking my sensibilities. "Listen, I want you out of my hair, not touching it" I raise my voice as he t...

Re: Basic strategy for taking out biter nests?

You'll get the hang of it. There's an awful lot to understand, remember, and finally master, playing this game. Combat is one of those things that comes with practise. Increased pollution increases the "evolution" rate of the biters - which makes them spawn larger biters - and the first ti...

Re: Basic strategy for taking out biter nests?

Power Armour mk2 with plenty of lv2 shields and some exoskeletons. You want a combat shotgun with a full compliment of the purple shells. Slowndown capsules are fantastic: they have an area of effect, slow biters down significantly, and any affected biter will be permanently slowed. So much so that ...

Re: Hostile Takeover - Challenge map

Yep I saw the devs were quick to fix the problems post-0.10.3 but I wanted to see what the score was with the current experimental, and don't have time to wade around knee-deep in forum pages. Well, I do, but I don't like anyone to know I have that sort of spare time :-P

Re: Hostile Takeover - Challenge map

I'd love to try this out, but I am still on version 0.10.3 as some of the versions since have had nasty bugs in them. I just went to look at what bugs are in 0.10.6 - just to see if .6 is alright for me - but there are so many posts that I have to pick through in so many sub-forums, just to find &qu...

I'll reply for all five of us. I think you missed the point of the co-op. Its not supposed to be a manual on super efficient uber awesome factorio designs. Its meant to be screwed up :lol: I think we're doing a really good job of that and we're exceeding the brief in all areas :lol: Amen to that! M...

Re: The Hydra Dilemma - A Coop Factorio Playthrough!

It's funny (and very frustrating) to see all of you ending your episode by placing the avatar next to what you where doing so the next one can have a hint on what to do.... ... and then the first thing done in the following episode is to go as far away as possible without looking at your feet :D Ss...

Re: The Hydra Dilemma - A Coop Factorio Playthrough!

We also don't want to hear any poor excuses for not giving us links.

2 wood -> wood plank assembler
1 iron plate -> iron stick assembler
Both outputs into pitchfork assembler
All with 4x Speed 3 modules.

Just sayin'.

Re: The Hydra Dilemma - A Coop Factorio Playthrough!

LOL THE EMPTY BARRELS! A highly entertaining episode. Don't forget when laying power poles you can drag-drop them to automatically place them at max. distance from each other.

Re: First day, first 'auto potion' machine, any feedback?

Looks respectable for your first 4am run! Keep in mind that non-smart inserters will only pick up items that the target area can accept. An inserter putting iron plates into an assembler will only pick up iron plates - so no need for everything to be smart inserters.
