Then I can just skip the step and have it made directly from oil

I want to keep the mod as vanilla-compatible as possible, so I don't think adding new resources will happen. Asphalt will most likely be made out of heavy oil, stone, and possibly sulfur. Making it generate pollution is a very interesting idea, though, I'll have to look at it further to see if it's ...

This is a good idea. Instead of a full blown lamp, it should be about the size and brightness of the current rail signals.

...What I agree with OP on is that piercing rounds recipe is too simple. It's an advanced product that needs research to be made, and yet all you need to make it is a single assembler next to the main bus. If piercing rounds require basic rounds, their recipe is suddenly two-step. Basic rounds are ...

That's a technicality. You can put in the signed 32-bit integer limit and have the text stay for almost ten thousand hours, which is more than a year of playing the game day and night. Yes, it is inelegant, but you don't have the source code of the game to care too much about that, this was just a w...

The Homeworld mod is a bit of overkill if all you want is automated fishing, though.

He has a point, though, the modding forum is shattered into so many superfluous subforums.

Silver_26, you should raise the complaint to the mods. So, Ssilk really.

There is one resource that is finite: your time. The less efficient you are in using your raw materials, the more time you'll have to spend on expanding your mining operations, and the less you will get done. Leave the resource cost for the combat rebalance of 0.13, though. What I agree with OP on i...

Then you've done something wrong because it worked perfectly fine for me.

You know what, here you go, I've made the mod for you:

You can make your own flying text entity: data:extend( { { type = "flying-text", name = "flying-text", flags = {"not-on-map"}, time_to_live = 150, speed = 0.05 } } ) That's the default entity's data. Just change time_to_live to something ridiculously high and speed to 0...

Or you can do this:
More elegant and doesn't overwrite any other properties of rocket fuel, ie it's more compatible with other mods.

Airat is not a spambot, he's just not a native English speaker and sometimes it gets a bit difficult to decipher what he's trying to say.

Yes More floors are good like Wood and stone and something like that I'll only add something if it actually serves a purpose in the game. I plan to reintroduce asphalt roads, but other than that I'm not sure if I'll add any more floors. Right now the focus is on bridges. Yay! Awesome news. Thank yo...

So far the only feature the mod adds is bridges, no other features from previous versions of the game are in. This will eventually change, but I wanted to release the mod sooner due to how popular bridges are. Also, interest check: Would anyone want me to reintroduce the old "limestone -> quick...

Solar panel modules should also not use processing units. They are the basic power production module and very weak, they should use green circuits at most. Needing solar panels is already enough of a requirement.

I've worked on something similar for the next iteration of Roadworks, though it's more like a standard vehicle with GUI and less automated than FARL is.

Collision layers can't be created. You need to use a layer that will be unlikely to be at your given position, like resource-layer.

Note that changing collision mask of water can have some unforeseen consequences.

I love the new soundtrack. The tracks are executed really well, and even if they repeat a little too often right now, they still don't get tiring to listen to in the slightest. I think the previous soundtrack fit the game better, though. It felt like you were in an unknown and hostile environment wh...

You change them the same way you change vanilla game recipes, but instead of data.lua, you do it in data-updates.lua. Data-updates is loaded after Dytech's data.lua where its recipes are defined, so you can change however you want there.
