Re: 0.15 - solar panels & accumulators

Wow, never tried to figure out one of these templates for myself before. It's tougher than I thought it would be to get the setup be symmetrical and have the correct ratio...

Re: Sent a half filled oil train on its way ?

Derp.

You are correct, there is a "Fluid Count". Don't know how I managed to overlook it the first time. So, right -- the original poster wants to select Fluid Count as a wait condition and within that you can select the specific liquid and the amount...

Re: Sent a half filled oil train on its way ?

Hmm, would have thought this would be done under the "Item Count" option, but you can't select a liquid there. Perhaps an over sight in the release?

Blueprint multiplcation

Am i missing something? Is there a way to use a blueprint out of the "Blueprint Library" without causing a blueprint to be created? Every time I use one, I end up with another blueprint in my inventory. It's not a major problem, but it is a bit annoying and would seem to be an unintended c...

Re: How to space your factory correctly?

In my experience it pretty much has to be done in two phases. Phase one, you build a base capable of completing a good amount of the science. Enough to give you access to Electric Furnaces, most of the oil products, and Robots if you want them. Phase two, restart "the real base", supplying...

Re: 0.15 blue print strings

I don't know about blueprint strings, but you can go an old map and drop and drag blueprints or blueprint books into the new interface. Despite the "Shared blueprints" labeling on the left side, you need to drag them to the right half of the interface to make them available in all games. N...

Oil always has been a less frequent resource. I'd just try turning up oil in your setup. *shrug*

Re: How do I make regular backups?

Uh, is there a reason you can't use the menu option to save the game whenever you need to? Perhaps like when you decide to leave the game?

Removed alien artifacts and alien science packs from the game completely. Could somebody tell me why, please? It was pretty fun point to have non-automatable part of game.

Re: Friday Facts #187 - Space science & 0.15 graphics

Apparently, 1 boiler will directly power 2 steam engines now, instead of 3 requiring 4 boilers. So if you had the 14 powering 10, you'll now need to replace those 14 boilers with 5 new ones. Don't forget also that the layout is completely different. Thanks for this, while I intend on trying discove...
