Two things got me : the new trailer and an "ad" from a Gnomoria player on Gnomoria forums who basically said "if you like this game, you might like Factorio too". I did indeed

How evolution evolves is described in the wiki, link provided 3 posts above.

But do you think a dense atmosphere would let through enough energy from the sun to provide 60 kW per solar panel ?

As suggested, moved the topic in the Ideas/requests for mods.

As of 0.9.1 the biter spawning is done probabilistically based on the current evolution. Lets imagine a wheel - the "spawning wheel". We will be slicing that wheel as a cake. Small biters take the first 0.3 part of the wheel, medium ones the middle 0.3 part and big biters take the last 0....

I'd love to see this implemented : right now, I just skip on purpose basic modular and Mk1 armor to directly get to MK2, just because I feel to be a waste the tiers in between.
Upgraded armor could be of same percentage durability as the component armor used to craft it.

I must admit I like UberWaffe's storage bunker concept way (way way) better that the infinite amount.I feel it suits better to the feel of the game (even if Compression chests mod is really good, I just find it a little "too good" (OP)). [Edit] Must have been drunk when I confused OP's nam...

The use of underground pipes really helps compacting that oil system design. I personnally kind of like the way pipes connect to each other.
If you want, here's a quite compact layout for your oil processing :

Topic moved to implemented suggestions.

Suggestion implemented indeed

How about a silenced sniper rifle that doesn't attract other biters of you kill one with it? Certainly would add to the stealth modules... Even if you OS one biter every second (which is pretty OP imho), a full base of 50-100 biters respawn in maybe 10 seconds. The biters respawn way too fast for a...

Evolutionfactor is calculated with :
- time passed
- pollution
- number of biter nests killed.

If a mod removes the time factor, and pollution factor there is still the "biter nest killing" source.

- Only build connected pieces of railroad and insert curves when appropriate. Already many suggestions for that, I think it's more or less int the devs' to-do list - Build connected underground pipes with max distance. Already many suggestions for that - Build drills, so that their catchment areas ...

Have you thought of using Google Analytics to have a look at what Google has in its records about this forum ?

Hi,

Dunno if it can help, but what's the following line in entity\turrets.lua doing : I mean if you raise the distance where the projectile is created, won't it work ?

Hi, The forum IS indexed by Google. The point is its ranking is abysmal (I think). Try this search : Treefarm site:www.factorioforums.com For me, 4th link points towards this : https://forums.factorio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=69230 The thing is the forum has been closed to bot crawling for long, so...

Your hardware is extremely limited. Integrated chopset on a 8 year old laptop, I'm not sure you'll be able to run Factorio on that.

Yeah portable fusion reactor seems so unimaginable

I love the idea of stealth module, with the bonus suggestion of the sniper rifle. However, with the WTFesque respawn rate of the biters, a sniper rifle would be totally useless.
