Crude Oil would have a value of 3.8MJ, except I don't want it to be usable as a fuel directly, so I'm not giving it a fuel value. Why not? It confuses people, as you've called it "Oil burning generator", but unlike the FlameThrower turrets, it can't burn crude oil ! (Which also, as you kn...

Laser in a power armor with a couple of shield modules let you literally run through biter bases obliterating them where you walk. Well, up to a point in enemy concentration and evolution - after that you have to use a tank, and with a couple of discharge defenses so that you don't get stuck ! Wher...

All good! Only thing I don't like on this FFF is the name, ' Belt immunity'. Can we make better name for it? Like 'Smart boots', 'Hover shoes', etc,? Well I don't really serious about it anyway.

The no oil nearby is a huge fallacy. Even assuming that you did not use the preview and don't already know where it is, unless you use some extreme ore generation setting/mod or biters settings, in which case you asked for it, there's always oil close enough. Ah sorry. My current game has indeed co...

Yeah, I don't think that I knew about that yet when doing the above... But wouldn't it be kind of problematic to do it where you don't have sight ? If you can afford to extend your roboport coverage so that you are building remotely... then you can use a small gadget like this one (derived from Mar...

Yeah, I don't think that I knew about that yet when doing the above... But wouldn't it be kind of problematic to do it where you don't have sight ? Yes, it is. But small holes in the radar coverage where you only need to go straight is no problem. No different from placing blueprints though. Yeah, ...

Sorry if a bit late, but if I'm not mistaken this mod fixes this issue?

Construction Bots are not too early at all. My build order is basically Red & Green Science, A basic mall and then a bot facility. In my last no spoon run, I had bots up within 3:45mins. Now this can be done even faster as my Bot facility was 4 roboports away from my basic mall (caused by some ...

Biters drop Meat. Meat is fuel. Blood is steam. Bones are bullets.

Isn't it the point? It's the super-expensive (mostly to research?) "game-ending superweapon"...

(Until we get better... Rocket-Silo launched Nukes with unlimited range carrying Multiple Independently Targetable Reentry Warheads please!
Then nerf artillery... maybe?)

Please don't make me go backwards and use personal solar panels! They should make personal solar panels more useful so having them in the grid is worthwhile. I personally avoid all the armor equipment until I get the reactor since personal solar panels can't keep up with the demand except for maybe...

Ah, I guess that it truncates - because it's less computationally intensive ?

Yay! A small detail though : there will be a lot of cringing among the more obsessive-compulsive of us if the Belt Immunity Equipment is only 1x1 ! (the only thing that we are going to be able to put in the remaining spot in the 10x10 Power Armor Mk2 will be a pretty useless Solar Panel!) I suggest ...

I don't see any reason to go beyond 3 significant figures in the production screen, certainly not enough to justify developer time on another option The problem with 2 significant figures is that for a value of 1.0k, it's somewhere between 1000 and 1099. That is a 9.9% uncertainty. (9.999% if the v...

Meanwhile, a reference to it could be added to the Tips and Tricks ? (Or the Basic logistic system tutorial...)

Good observation. If asked I would (general principle and feel is the same, and it's low tech as well). I think I did not considered it when I said 2 to 3 times slower. I'm personally a very bad driver and can't take significant advantage of it, but I assume it's potentially massive, further nullif...
