Re: Friday Facts #225 - Bots versus belts (part 2)

Or make bots only work at day - so you need belts for a working system, but can do bot-fun at day.

Re: Friday Facts #225 - Bots versus belts (part 2)

Thats the fun of the game. If belts or bots could do anything, therew wouldn´t be a reason for clicking on factorio on the steamlist. http://media1.faz.net/ppmedia/aktuell/wissen/755545807/1.2977289/article_multimedia_overview/kuenstlerische-darstellung-der.jpg I have a suggestion: Implement an ulti...

Yes, the artillery train is op, to. Bots play for the user, and artillery, too. Let some fun-playing parts left for the user.

I don’t think they’d entirely remove bots.
And i hope. Or make them only effecitve for 10% of the things.

layerd belts - bäh. I wan´t to see what´s going on. Wan´t to feel my iron-plates - not only numbers or led. Just nerf the bots enormously.

Re: Friday Facts #225 - Bots versus belts (part 2)

Once again - there is no issue with bots being too strong. There is issue with belts being too weak. In this case, instead of nerfing bot access to chests, find a way to buff belt access to them (psst, pssssst... Loaders...). bots are to stronk. Belts are o.k. - it is an enjoyment leaning back an w...

Nobody knows? Why? I read many different things like 25 solars on 21 accumulators. There will be a perfect ratio!?

Re: Friday Facts #225 - Bots versus belts (part 2)

i actually think weight would be a fantastic idea. cargo size AND maximum weight research (to a limit). yes, so belts can transport everything, but bots not. And al lot off goods can be transportet by bots, but not so effective like belts can do(because of the most interesting way to play has to be...

Re: Pump for speed?

As a "cheat" to improve the flow you can replace your straight pipes with underground pipes. They cover 10 tiles but only count as 2. but only with a pump between them? "a full-length section only counts as two pipes in this table, if a pump is placed between each underground section...

Re: Friday Facts #224 - Bots versus belts

Factorio with bots is like bying a puzzle and paying a slave doing it for you. And so what? If I get my enjoyment out of watching someone else do the work I tell them to, what's wrong with that? Yeah, i know - a lot of pepole like others watching having sex. But having sex is better. If you don´t l...

Re: Friday Facts #224 - Bots versus belts

Why is everyone trying to remove a part of the game that they do not use? I don't get that basic premise! All the people arguing to remove the bots are the same people that are not using them! Keep on not using them please and let the rest of the people that want bots continue to use them. Because ...

I think that there is only one Way to get both factions satisfied: Make it an Option play robotfree Games. but thats a lot of more programming-time. You have to make 2 games, if you wan´t both to be funny. Let the fun win vs. the bots. Bots is like bying a keyboard an pressing the autoplay button. ...
