Mining robots would be epic. It would go a long way to helping the with creating a self-perpetuating blueprint. Some extra ideas for combat robots: Robotic Mine: Robot that runs at the enemy once in range and detonates. (Destructive, but single use. Prefers to target alien nests.) Gas Drone: Rushes...

I always hate dealing with that wasted bot...do I deploy another set or wait until one is detoryed by biters?

How about this- robot frames take ~8 seconds and it is the robots themselves that take the 20 seconds.

Simply, you get robots and fast inserters too fast. Why? What is your criteria of "too fast"? For whom? Compared to what? Sorry for being breif in my origional post. I think that robots should be goten very early into blue science, as apposed to late into green science. Also, as it is, yo...

Could someone link me to the mod pages for this? I cant seem to find them on the forum

Simply, after you post something to a thread, several navigation options dissapear from the top nav bar with the forums and sub-forums. Please make these buttons avalibe on that page

I do think that two of one moduals of a single type in a single assembler should apply more of an effect then if you put the moduals in two seperate assemblers.

I understand that the endgame is still a WIP, but I think that the research to rocket deffence should be more split up. Perhaps into different components of the rocket, such as rocket fuel and low-density sturctures. I dont like fact that now you get the research and then have APSOLUTLY EVERYTHING A...

the time to create end-chain products needs to be increased. Things such as robots should take 3-5 seconds. 0.5 s is just not enough.

Simply, you get robots and fast inserters too fast. You can get them within a few hours of playing.

Erm. I've big train stations, where about every 5 seconds a train will depart. It will sound like this: Toooootooot Toooootooot Toooootooot Toooootooot Toooootooot Toooootooot Toooootooot Toooootooot Toooootooot Toooootooot Toooootooot Toooootooot Toooootooot Toooootooot Toooootooot Toooootooot Too...

I TLDRd. I think every type of vehicle entity should have the abillity to have a modular grid, similar to that of power armor. Possibly a different type of grid, meaning it requires different modules. Getting a bit off topic here, but I also think all vehicles (this means also locomotives and wagon...

Yes. This needs to be a thing. It will allow for you to program a circiut network to tell lights to come on when a train is about to cross a crossing.

You would still have the limit on sheild recharge speed.

I would like that; and I imagine it would not be hard to add from a devs point of view.

Since this post is recent, I'll add my robot suggestion here, what about mining robots (that would be able to mine coal and ores and put them straight into logistic system)? Good idea! Almost worthy of creating a forums account to share with the interwebs! :P But on your idea, I like it. on my seco...

When I saw the title of this thread, it gave me an idea that would add an interesting gameplay mechanic to trains, although it might be hard to impliment. Basicly, have a "flatbed" train car in which that you can build things on, such as inserters, turrets, chests, etc. http://www.mountain...

I would love gamepad support, and multiple keys to be binded to the same action(eg. Both e and the 4th button on my mouse can open the Invintory)

I like the idea of sheild robots as an addition to combat robots, but I feel like the other suggestions are garbage (sorry for being harsh)
