Your complete early game is more or less manual labor. See it this way, you must earn the things for your automation by yourself, and tree chopping is also included, as is first mining for furnaces/burnerdrills to get away from it. Seems logical, nobody falls with a sh.. ton of Ressources in his bac...

X times faster for X² fuel thats not how the world works. Thay should consume more fuel no question, but let the chruch on the villageplazza. The fuel consumption for double speed should lay somwhere around double +/- a bit for weight differences. Even if weight don't plays a role in the game by its...

Well i don't think the circuit network will help me much if my trains are on stop and go becuase i've a bottlneck that i can't reconstruct. Like living on an penninsula surrounded on three sides by water, great for defense, not so great if you try to get a growing number of trains in and out. It's l...

Nice work as always. Looks like this fixes most of the issues with that I never bothered to address in pocketbots That is why the energy values in armor modules were multiplied by a big factor. Can we have a not so portable fusion generator then? Thats a thing that i've always wondering about. Havi...

Koub more trains aren't an answer to everything. Every Railsystem has its limits, and somtimes is a complete overhaul for more capacity is just not possible. That aside, it dosen't necessarily makes it faster, more trains means more possible traffic jams, just throw more at it won't work. If a train...

i don't know ... i forsee hovering bots over the chest transfering between the Zombies. Could be wrong but basiclly thats wat i said transfer from an requester to a provider and the bots take it right back to the requester ... Hmm if the requester would become a provider only if he's satisfied howev...

With time and more and more entitys that would go heavily on the processing time, keeping als those stats in memory on demand. And is it a real necessity, in case of an attack you'll notified what and where got attacked, in case of ressources your production will give you the feedback, when tha plas...

Well i can find a Masstransporter, i can't find a low quantity transporter. The Mass transporter is ther yes, but for bringing supplys on regulary basis, it's not the method of choise is it? Yes it should be faster, but not with a emergency deadline, for regulary low quantity supplys i dont need the...

Well in the beginning almost 80% of your production is centert around research, take that away there is very little left.

Ssilk, that was a bit off a slap in the face, thinking of the last thread in that direction. Clearly i could easily bring my plane down to 50 seconds, nobody said it has to be a conventional starter, could also be a Vertical Starter, much quicker in the air. But that wasn't the point to beginn with....

Shift click works only if the entitys are the same, means from chest to hest or chem plant to chemplant, this works from assembler to requester chest and alike.

Thats priceless, making that which was mentiont in an other thread yourself. In this that but in any other case that. Nice One. Coming with G-Forces and calculations for one thing and throwing some random numbers for another. Distanz 5000meter, for 5 seconds, including starting sequenze for a rocket...

Liquid fuels aren't supported yet. As it stands now it would be Solid Fuel all the way. Everything else where "fakefuel" like 20 lightoil per operation in a recipe... Well not really a fan of that, it would somewhat distort the current Fueling System. and in the end wouldn't make that much...

True a flyover drop would be faster if you take the time from starting to the drop. Would beat every landing. But if you take the time until the goods arrive ground i'm not that sure. Nonetheless the idea has something. if the cargobox where to be passiv provider like, the bots could use the contend...

Which gaves away the mentioned speed advantage. How do i put it, landing per parachute is far slower then landing by plane. It would depend to a degree on the gravitational force of the planet (which is unknown but seeing the charchter i assume somwhere around earth niveau, 9,807m/s²) Well landing w...

Well if the patch is in the size of an pingpong ball all the richness is for naught, not enough space for miners >< I had patches with over 200K but barly space for 3 miners, thats just mocking RNG. And the number of miners is importend if you try to get 2.2K Iron per minute through your factory ^^....

Well i usually don't overcare to much, my repairpack assembler has a passiv provider and is centert, by rule of thumbe estimate ;) enough packs in the chest the rest relativates anyways after a short while. I think the best bet is to have a good Logisystem and a port near the spots of heavier attacks.

Yeah but you'll end up with one itemtype per storage chest as long as free storage chests available. The bots only put different items together if the find no free storage chest.

Yeah right, but the logistics network and the wire network are seperate things. Bots can only take and deliver things in the supplyarea, construction bots can also construct and deconstruct in the cunstruction area. I don't now where you want to went there, but items for construction have to be prov...

Well you're aware that if you transfer items from a requester back into a storage chest creat a loop? Item gets transferd bot comes packs it back in the requester, item gets transfered, and so on and so forth. Afaik items in a smart chest aren'T available for bots either. So the thing would be prett...
