I just released the first version of my Express Smart Inserters.

Thank you Bob for showing the way to a faster factory! All inserters have a massive passive drain of 2.4 KW. Very useful for trains!

A mod for those of you who wish there was a Smart Inserter that was also VERY fast. Playing a lot of Bob's mods and those wonderful express inserters he adds I've always wanted versions that were also smart. So I made just that. And while not dependent on Bobs mods I do credit Bob for the naming con...

This has turned into a very helpful thread. Thanks everyone!

A lot of popular youtubers ask for money in return for a video series. I know from talking to the FortressCraft Evolved dev that he has gotten quotes of $2-3 thousand PER EPISODE from YouTubers to play his game. It's pretty ridiculous.

Anyone want me to cover any other topics?

Fluid mechanics? Advanced topics?

Just added a video for shortcut keys:

I figured it was the poison and dire spitters... sucks there's not an easy work-around.

Hey Bob, is there a way for your biters to not attack one another... it's hurting my herding efforts for my giblet farm.

I have a little series going very short videos on different topics in the game for those who need a little more explanation on one topic or another. I'm open to other areas which may need to be covered. I plan to cover short-cut keys as well as there are many that are SUPER useful but may not be obv...

My YouTube channel doesn't use my name. Maybe that's not the best? I have been going by the name Buggi since the mid 1990's, though it's hard to get that name on many sites. So my channel is call Flexible Games, because I like to play games that offer open-ended or modable gameplay. I upload 720p vi...

You must like a challenge. Landfill mod would be of huge use.

Yeah, I wasn't aware of this, sorry for that.

I've just noticed on Reddit you've used my channel icon as your reddit icon.

Why would you steal my art like that?

Done. You're welcome.

Anything is possible. Empty on signal, on timer, etc. That just takes more scripting and only adds to the potential drain on efficiency (Game Lag).

Electrified Trees!

I always thought of my character in the game not as a crash-landed survivor, but as a early settler/terraformer working to build up some infrastructure for future colonists. Making the area safe, setting up production, etc. Just a step away from making homes, cars, and biter-skin boots.

Yeah, after reading about this I'm afraid I'm not jumping on board this bandwagon. I like the simple connect wire to a and b and set condition. I've never found a need to control assemblers, belts, or trains with conditions. Especially if I have to craft yet another box and make room for it. With th...

So the devs went with Objects instead of interfaces for different types of entites? Sigh... With interfaces you could have entities have the functionality of many different types of things. So like, class LogicTurret : ILogisticContainer, ITurret In LUA you could add a hook for item types and expand...

The queue idea I've thought of. Unfortunately some things take much less time than others, so adding to the bottom of a queue wouldn't really work. Take harvesting for example. Once the tree growth event is triggered on the tree to the max level, that tree can be immediately harvested. Even though t...
