Ah, didn't realize that was allowed. Makes sense, thanks! technicly you can give each depot a different name, have a dedicated depot for each train. All thats gonna do is that you cant copy&paste initial schedules, they´ll still look into LTN the same way and distribute trains. I´d even advise ...

What we need is a sexy idea how to introduce a new concept that is adequate for late game. I'm sure that a 20x20 miner is not the answer. I understand where you come from. However you should know that, adding just 1 bigger mining drill wasn't the intention, adding multiple levels of excavators Goin...

That's the Durability mechanic (originally on repair tools, in fact science packs are item type tool) the problem is that recipes themselves do not support it, ingredient items must have a whole number for their amount... unless they're a fluid, but outputs can have a bit more flexibility with a pr...

OH!!!! The mechanic you are talking about, that the devs think its not worth the time. Its already in game! Think of Science packs, labs etc.... Make a machine that uses items with the same property as a science pack. They have %used, regardless of research cycle complete or not, they stay in the la...

...... about your catalyst rant: thats exactly what i tought, when thinking about making mining abit more complex but more rewarding later I´d want some item that needs to be put into that lategame "mining machine" Call it maintainance, where you would need to put gears in. Or those catal...

LTN is not completely idle when i fired up your save, i got messages about schedules being created. Didn´t take a look at them tho, could be your starter base on a seperate network? Also, are you running any of the AAI stuff, like zone scanning? AAI caused alot of trouble on an AB server i was playi...

i downloaded it as well, and i hate to say that its too big even for my standards :D Deleting alien biomes instantly bumped me up 5 UPS. no idea how... It all turn to grass when deleting biomes tho, so it looks like a huge colf corse... I had this when i wanted to replicate KoS´ PY series which quic...

Youtuber Toxictimewaster(Ryan)

Was watching Rimworld series, browsed through playlists and found an old (i think 0.13/14) Factorio playlist.

Bought the game after the 2nd episode of watching. Failed, horribly. Watched another 10 hours of other Youtubers. 2500h since Oct. 2017

since i cannot load it at work and i cant see details of the base in the screens: dont load trains with loaders, that´d be a massive UPS drop. it was for me at least. (another map tho, not the one described below) I have about the same issue, where its going down soon, the game already slows down to...

its pretty, because symmetric, but it has alot of unused space that cant fit solar panels if you wanted to add them later. And desired solar to accumulator rating would need more panels than accus. Also, wrong forum. But dont let that get in your way. ;) guessing its more like an early game build, w...

....... think destroyer capsules , you start with the basics ammo and by the end you are putting in speed modules to get laser shooting flying death spheres thats an interesting point. in about 2500h of playtime i only had combat robotics built/used cos someone on my team placed a "build it al...

I'd call it known "won't fix bug".

I´d call the renaming the actual "fix", gotta put at least some work into it on the dev side

to quote that reddit thread

Me: is this a bug or a feature?
Devs: yes.

Except a tank holds 25000 units and it's inconceivable that water and oil have the same density in the game so a mass of 25000 units would fill the volume of a tank. Can you even compress them to the same density? you cant compress liquids, at least in RL. how the game handles it, i have no idea. i...

I get all the points. I see you math, i understand it and i trust you on it. But: in the OP, you are including Kovarex in one of the formulas, which is a whole different process than mining raw ore and centrifuging it. Its pointed out, but all your reasoning beyond that uses the Kovarex number. And ...

1.44GW (sky-high value for many players, as I believe Did anyone else giggle at this? A GW base is chump change. Nuclear power isn't balanced for the end game as much as the post game. Extreme bases need extreme power and Nuclear power fills that role very well. Those super bases don't run for hour...

well, you picked out one point and ignored the rest. Its the overall setup, which is alot more complex than just burning coal and "researching kovarex is no problem, you´ll have it before need it?". Well, that goes for everything, once you hit the needs for that much power, you are probab...

do you think that nuclear power production requires a radical nerf? hell no! Not even if you dont include the word "radical" Fuel vale per ore is not all you to think about when balancing. Before you can even start that, you need to power the centrifuges. You need think about sulfiric aci...

Though the OP specifically said stock install, and I don't think adding construction bots to your power armor to start falls into that category :D since Brave New World (see above) is what i was thinking of, it turns out its a scenario, so scripted vanilla (?) The point is that you need WASD, but y...

What IS the bare minimum needed to get construction bots up and running? Power. If bots get placed in your bags at the start, im sure they´d get you some miners, boilers, belts .... etc too. Iirc it was 25 conbots and 2 or 3 roboports, no idea about the rest tho. If i´d play it myself, i would like...
