Re: [MOD 0.13.x] Advanced Personal Defense

UPDATED.

It now works in version .13.

I will follow up with some tweaks shortly, for now the main hurdle was just getting it running again.

Re: Solar panels less of a no-brainer

Most of these suggestions about nerfing accumulators, day cycle, weather effects, etc all basically amount to 1 thing: Just having to build more solar+storage to accomplish the same thing. The entire mid-game for me involves spending a HUGE amount of resources towards solar, it's an investment that ...

It doesn't happen when game first loads, you have to start a new map.

Re: [MOD 0.12.26] Laser Beam Turret

Yeah that's my only gripe with the mod, if you enable or disable the mod then you lose all turrets that were on the map. :(

The circuit network additions in .13 should make a much more efficient version possible! :)

Re: Help with converting laser equipment to use ammo

bump. So I'm trying to get this to work with the .13 update. Aside from the obvious of adding the version line in info.json and deleting the "require defines" line, there's the slightly less obvious renaming of the basic-laser-defense-equipment to personal-laser-defense-equipment. After th...

Re: [MOD 0.12.26] Laser Beam Turret

That's an interesting idea. Even if it was just a "repeater" that was inexpensive to build and maintain, it would have it's purposes.

Re: Anyone feel sorry for the Biters?

Not really. They're obviously some sort of gene-engineered ecoterrorist bioweapon, designed by a native mad scientist to wipe out everyone on the planet to wipe the sapient species out before they (the sapient species) killed the planet with pollution, probably hundreds of years ago. It explains Ho...

Re: Let's see your clever builds

Nice one! Aren't those ratios off though? Green for efficiency doesn't touch productivity. So you'd need 3 cable and 2 circuit assemblers? Don't think it matters when there are so many of them! :lol: Personally I think green circuits are one of the best places for productivity modules since they ar...

Re: Pump-jacks make way too much pollution

Even w speed3 modules the output is pretty much useless if you have reasonable production happening, you're forced to branch out anyways. I think you need something like 20 depleted jacks to make the output of an average undepleted one.

Re: Tree clearing with construction bots

It's my favorite method, very efficient for large areas. Tank/shotgun quicker if I'm just in a hurry to make a path and careless to be wasteful about it. Plenty of times have made a wooden chest and filled it with wood, just left it out in the middle of nowhere. Lately I use requester chest to feed ...

Re: [MOD 0.12.x] Advanced Personal Defense

Giant biters, sure. I haven't tangled w the behemoths yet but I'm under the impression that if this laser can single handedly take one down then it's probably too powerful. Maybe if you have 6 of them cooking! :lol:
