Re: I understand it's not likely, but I'd like to put in a vote for apple silicon optimization anyways.

I'd rather see RISC-V support, since ARM and now even x86 (with hardware DRM support present in Intel and Ryzen processors) are dead-ends to be avoided if you care about general purpose computing.

Hmm, this reminds me of hacks with blueprints using higher levels than you already have of Bob's Adjustable Inserters...
Wube decided that that exploit wasn't worth fixing, but they might change their minds if it becomes too frequent ?

No, that's capsule firing speed, means that after you use it, you can't use any other capsule for 0.5 seconds. I've looked into the mod files, only found increased movement speed (x5 IIRC).

Re: My Deathworld Marathon Factory

Right, that's why I don't even try expensive recipes when modded, playing with 50%/50%/50% resources instead... (In vanilla, Marathon is exactly 8x more expensive in iron and copper for Red + Green science, and 0.5×0.5×0.5=1/8.) Though I guess I should try 8x science cost sometimes, or mixing them b...
