Everything is customizable to an incredible extent. Just change, what you want it to be.

After thinking a bit more, maybe it would be cool and easier to implement if biters could simply expand anywhere, even inside or next to your base. This would also fix the expand block cheesing which I already figured out in my very first Factorio game by just dropping pipe segments everywhere ...

nest size matters, of course. deathworld probably has mostly too big ones. That one in the screenshot looked doable, but when I look at it now, maybe not.

Technically, you can clear a base with light armor, fish and pistol, but it's a bit painful. Focus on worms and don't let biters overwhelm you.
Probably better, to get turrets and/or military first. The shotgun is decent at clearing nests

There have been a lot of performance optimizations. I doubt, that the numbers from 5 years ago still apply.

I would recommend to not overuse splitters and balancers anyway, but it only matters, when scaling pretty big. I would really avoid huge balancers, because they are not really needed most of ...

I drop this here:

Maybe it helps

Today, I dropped my fish back into the nauvis water. There can be a remainder of 1-4 fishes, because fishes in water are always 5 for whatever reason. The spoiling timer can also be increased by mixing with full health ones, which is especially effective on this 1-4 remainder

Math-wise, the attack cost modifier should act like this:

I'm sure the biters will deeply appreciate your theoretical arguments, take them into consideration, and maybe even apologize for showing up 200 strong instead of the regulation 50.



Waves buildup takes a random time, the longer it ...

Pollution "Attack cost modifier" is 50% (DW) and 80% (DWM)
-> This means, that less pollution is consumed to spawn a biter for an attack group in Deathworld. Similar pollution amount leads to bigger or more attacks.

Just of curiosity have started the same seed with DWM and DW, placed the same ...

Deathworld and Deathworld Marathon are slightly different in map settings.

I was also wondering about this topic

I think, that's a good solution, but have to experiment. One chest of items is maybe a bit much, maybe rather limit the chests or switch chests more often.

If you're worried about stack averaging you can use two chests with spoiled-first inserters pulling out ...

I mean, Deathworld always was a rush to flame throwers, efficiency modules and maybe landmines. After that, it's getting easier.
What exactly changed, that makes 2.0 easier?
- some pollution absorption changes. f.e. water absorbs more
- Deathworld Marathon has no expensive recipes anymore, which ...

I thought this was just for steam achievements? IIRC the game wouldn't let you earn steam achievements if you play modded, used console commands, or set certain map settings across specific thresholds. But you can still earn achievements in the save itself, they just don't count towards steam ...

A savegame would contain the exact map settings, which makes it easier to reproduce.
The map string provided from the previous post should do it, too, i guess

I would assume, the problem comes from mesa, nouveau or the kernel
I also read, the nouveau is getting updated for better support of NVIDIA cards. May something mismatches currently.
Maybe some updates there can help. Mesa 24.2 is not very new.
Or you could try the proprietary NVIDIA drivers

While I applaud your efforts, the harsh truth I think is that such a tool should be open source. I doubt many people will pay $7 for a proprietary Windows tool obtainable via Steam, to install it alongside another piece of code on Linux system, to have some benefit while playing.

Lossless ...

I was trying the new port for Lossless Scaling under Linux:
https://github.com/PancakeTAS/lsfg-vk

Caution: It directly uses the Lossless Scaling tool for Windows, which has to be bought from Steam for like $7

The goal is to run Factorio with 120Hz, while each other frame is generated. This should ...

You could try changing the monitor to 60Hz and/or experiment with VSync/VRR. Maybe also a second monitor with a different refresh rate could be a problem.

Are those personal bots from the personal roboport in the armor? If they did something and you took the train to the other base, they will try to get to you, no matter how far.

You can split prototypes to separate files, otherwise data.lua could get quite big and hard to maintain.
