Any news about fixing the over bloated save issue? thanks!

About how biter % evolves, when I mean that over a full cycle it decreases (for me) I mean over the full peaceful+normal+passive expansion, it decreases. I tend to take pollution into account when developing myself (for example I won't exploit an ore patch at maximum speed by having drills everywher...

I'm also using it, with slight modifications to your code because I like to play slow sometime, a kind of semi-pausing.

What is missing now is shortcuts, like + and - to alter speed, instead of clicking. That said, a HUGE THANKS for your mod.

Oh ok, that would explain if over a full cycle from peaceful>normal>expansion, if I don't kill any hive, then % globally decrease?

Is the mod working right regarding evolution progression? How can I end up with almost the same % at the start and then at the end of 900 seconds of 'peace' with a 0.40% increase per minute? Evolution should have gain 6% if my maths are right. But it is increasing by perhaps 0.5% over the whole peri...

But the larger the area, the less control you have on particular aspects. You have to trust the robots will leap frog correctly from A to B to C and not do A to C, which will be terribly long. If I have 2 separate areas, I can have robots moving stuff from A to B while at the same time robots moving...

I see several arguments to not make them overlaps*, but what is the consensus?

It does not mean there is a single robotport every 50 squares, it can be a 'hub'. Two hubs are separated by a small 'no man's land' not serviced but with conveyor belts relaying stockpiles.

About the iron crunch I have a dire iron crunch, always, from the start. It might be because of the settings I use, a modified RSO mod. But perhaps others are also facing the issue. For me the only mineral of importance that drives my expansion is iron, the rest is much more present that I'll ever ...

Questions must have been asked zillions of times, but after reading the 3 last pages, I see no reference about it.

Can we play both Yuoki and Bob's mods at the same time?

I definitively recommend Misanthrope Mod. https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?f=97&t=17291&p=135080#p135080 Why? Because with Misanthrope, even if you are clearing biters nests and none are contaminated by your pollution, they will come after you, sometime over long distance, and liter...

Just reporting that your mod is increasing greatly my interest in Factorio. Now biters come to bite you, even if your pollution don't spill over their bases. That's just great. I had no particular trouble protecting my supply lines. Yes, it needs more resources, defenses and prudence, but I find tha...

It seems a very nice mod. I admit though that not having the turrets on a tiny plausible wagon detracts me from the mod.

Hey,

I'm wondering if there is a plan, somewhere, sometime to have alternate planets styles (it could affect gameplay optionally). Like a red planet (Mars type), lava planet, frozen planet, jungle, etc. With more different biomes also... And there is no mod that propose that, AFAIK...

cheers

I'm using Bob's series of mods, is 5Dim compatible, it will be redundant I guess...

I don't get it, with RSO added and settings minerals to low availability, I have patches of 14k minerals per squares (total perhaps 250-500k minerals per spot) something like 3 chunks from my base. That's insane... If I wanted to play with unlimited minerals, I would not use RSO. I have not modded o...

Hey,

I would like to plant back trees, the natural ones, not treefarms. Mostly for embellishing my base. Does a mod do that?
On the same trend, any mod adding 'cultural objects', i.e they are just there to be cool, like a statue?

Well, if you fancy the idea of having a module about 'exploration', you can start with the spaceships wrecks of the base game and add loots into them, based on distance to spawn points, and top / surround them with biters bases... But I can understand you are not interested in this feature.

Wanted to thank you for this mod, it makes taking notes much easier!

That's Bob's map. With Bob's map, you would get non-Earthlike biome, like lava fields, purple toxic plants. When you explore, you find 'goodies huts' (that's the wording used in the Civilization series for surprises-in-a-chest bonus). The farther away, the better the finding. Near the spawn point, i...

Ok, if I reach this point, which is not obvious given the very hard difficulty settings I set, I'll tell you. I think they can be used as last ditch defense though. i.e picture a walled rectangle with exits being replaced by turrets. If turrets are destroyed, then the robots there are free to go. So...
