Re: Multiple Fluid Selector Circuitry


I'd have liked to somehow refrain from clocked circuits. There's probably not a good reason I don't like them.
I was intrigued by the problem if there was a memory cell solution that more or less stored the type of fluid/signal and doesn't depend on it's value so to say.
I still feel that should ...

Re: Generic train and combinators


Hi,
Since the bug in the design were blocking our production on fulgora, it was scrapped so I had to start again from half wired combinators. So I took the opportunity to make a full train track that showcase the issues I have.


That's good it was possible to test the settings.

Which part of the word 'or' do you not understand? I don't have a dog in this fight (I've not played anything like enough hours of SA to have formed firm opinions about its balance) but this is an egregiously unfair response.

Re: How do you deal with emptiness after "finishing" the game?

I think some players are soooo attached to factorio that even after their game is finished they go on the forum, or when they are at work and can't play.

So it goes back to what I've already said - if the point is to reach the end screen, there needs to be more content, OR if the point is to play around in a sandbox and build things, give us the tech earlier.

Re: Feedback on Space Age's overall design


despite loving the game and SA, I would align with OP on some of his points. Moving things from Nauvis to other planets felt like a step back. I'm sure they tried and was most likely too complicated, but I wish we could built a base on Nauvis like during 1.0, then go to space and discover many new ...

Re: Space Age feels too scripted


I believe it's extremely difficult to manage rocket logistics without bots. To use belts, one would need to either have a dedicated rocket for each item to be launched to space, or have a bunch of chests around a rocket silo that only fills the silo when the item is requested.

Do you have a blueprint of what you have attempted already ?

It sound like a RS latch would work, as you say a memory cell that choose what need be inserted in the train when a train arrive in the station, and get reset when a new train arrive.

It sound like it would require something additionnal ...

Re: [Help needed] Multiple Fluid Selector Circuitry

It's unclear to me when you want the signal to change without a clock to introduce hysteresis. The risk is that you will have 2 fluid with about the same quantity, 10K, and one will go to 9999, so then the other will be consumed, go to 9998, and then the first one again, to 9997 and then the second ...

I wasn't looking at the recycler outputs at all. Rather, the ratio in the inputs. I would expect some deviation around the mean but one should be copper-neutral and the other copper-positive, yet both are ending up repeatedly copper negative.

No. It's proposing a unique mix that is very enjoyable for many players given the overwhelming positive review imo.
