The bugs now look pretty if you like bugs and get tired of eating fish. Anyone have a BBQ and some ketchup or mustard? I wonder if I can feed bugs to bugs and if the bugs will eat the BBQed bugs. Regarding the trains, is there a way to by-pass a station based on either the cargo in the train, or amo...

I would like to emphasize two things mentioned by others that I like Someone mentioned no resupply unless player is wearing armor of some sort. Upon respawn after death, I like the idea of no resupply or limited resupply until armor is put on. Alt + Tab keystroke combination. I do not recommend usin...

I started a game with a mod that includes the proposed science changes, and I am about 70% of the way to a rocket launch. Here are my additional comments. 1. Chemical Science is now harder due to having two products that use crude oil as a raw resource. I'm not sure that was the desired effect. 2. M...

Overall I am impressed with the amount of effort put into the redesign of sciences! I am looking at it's implementation. I do have a few concerns and recommendations. My first concern is that some non-intermediate products are now used as intermediate products used to create the final science packs....

By the time I start using modules in large numbers, in the games I play, about the only thing I use efficiency module is it is a component needed for making something like armor. At this stage if the game, power is not an issue. I have more then enough solar and nuclear power. Currently there are se...

That is not a bad idea.

I would put somewhere prior to researching the silo, since you need to know the properties of your rocket fuel before you can build a rocket silo.

For me, it is all of the above, or both trains and belts. There are situations where belts are better, and some where trains are better, despite the cost. By the time I have both blue and military science rolling, I am already in the situation of having to switch out yellow belts with red ones, and ...

Initially, I set up turrets, then add in flame throwers. I try to set up sectors, to be somewhat autonomous. I try to keep about 20-25 flame turrets per sector, with it's own oil tank, The turrets are there to be a back up and as biter bait for the flame turrets. If they are destroyed, so what, they...

From a design perspective, I set up two rail yards initially. The first one is for fluids, and I also set up a refueling station there. Coal is the initial fuel, or if a heavy forested starting area, lumber. Trains run on coal, lumber, and so on. As a rule, I'll only process incoming oil, incoming s...

Within the secure area of the base I like to use a small array that consists of 1transformer, 1radar, 8 solar panes and 7 accumulates, in an almost small square box, when there is no electrical line close by. I know may have one too many accumulators, or one too many solar panels. It takes about a d...

I can confirm that this patch does fix this issue. It was not just a rail roads almost all blue prints.

Thanks guys!

Herkalurk, I tweaked the logic circuit last night for better control of this array, so that I can change it from one location. All the stack inserters are connected by a a red wire. The red wire out of the array is connected to a decider combiner. The combiner is programed with "if STEEL < 100k...

Herkalurk Here are to images. First shows the corner of the smelting array. Second shows how what the furnace is amped up to. In intent on providing blueprint so that if others wanted to they could replicated in the game. Next step I am working on is to set it up so that I can control and dynamicall...

I set up something similar. It is set up to be scalalable both in width and height. Bots move raw resources to a requester chest. Finished resources are moved to an active provider chest. The inserted is networked to only work when there are less then say one million a designated smelted item in the...
