Re: Player/character Crafting/Mining speed

Since research is currently force bound, it makes sense that these things are all force bound. If and when they implement a per-player research/skill tree system, this is when certain things, like max robots, mining speed etc can be moved to a specific player. Other than that, the only thing you can...

Re: Normal value for resources

I think that's what the maximum tag is for. it doesn't actually set a maximum, thats just the upper limit for the calculation. %age = current value/maximum, so if the maximum was 100, but there was 200 left, you'd have 200%.

This is a case of them changing the way the boiler works between versions. there were no pipe graphics required previously because when they weren't connected to anything, there were no pipes to cover.

I think that Lead is the only ore you can do that with though, well, and Copper, since I add a second recipe for that.

its still an issue that you need the ass2 to automate green science, and that to make a ass2 you need several green techs (lead processing + prereqs for solder, 150 green potions) or am i missing something? Lead Processing unlocks the advanced chemical process of refining lead, where you get a sulp...

Re: [0.11.22/0.12.x][v0.12.2] Bob's Ore Mod.

It would be interesting to add a variant mod where only various stone fields exist on the surface, and each presents a differing variety of ores within I think Cartmen's mod was based on doing something like this. Anyway, thanks for the mods - they're great! Is there a way to show appreciation for ...

Bob's Mining is one of the mods that has not been updated for new recipes based on the electronics mod, I do plan to look at this in the future. Also, the Basic Electronics Board shouldn't require Transistors, it requires Resistors, or "Basic Electronics", I can however look into costs, bu...

I have considered flat out removing the sniper rifle... but don't forget that although it may do a lot of damage up front (This was recently reduced) the delay between shots brings the DPS pretty close to the other weapons.

Re: My personal experience with bobs mods.

I do plan to do stuff with biters. Behemoth biters make my new ones seem like wimps. They're also pretty small. I was thinking of doing an overide to make the behemoth biters/spitters bigger, then adding another tier of my own that are on par with them. And perhaps increasing the resistances of thos...

Bob, i think i see the problem here... if you have GalenaGivesNickel enabled, you define "nickel-ore". however, your looking for no definition of nickle ore to populate lead ore You are confusing my creation of the nickel-ore ITEM with my check for nickel-ore RESOURCE, they are 2 seperate...

Re: [0.11.22/0.12.x][v0.12.2] Bob's Ore Mod.

You have another mod there, WaiTex by the look of things, that has modified the Burner Mining drill... it is possible that it has set the mining limitations to 2 ores. By default in base game these machines have no items per cycle tag, and therefore the limit is 1 ore per field with machines (There ...

Ah, I didn't consider all the possible routes when you don't have bob's plates mod installed... I'm not sure what to do about that... Since you need water, it means you can't make it in assembly machine 1. I'd say the next apropirate item would be a stone furnace, but you can't use a fuel item as an...

So, a peice of insulated wire to craft, thats it, so you can just run around with insulated cable in your bag, and make a red/green as desired? That's actually a good idea in my opinion, because it gives insulated cable more of a use too.

Can red and green wires use the basic circuit board rather than basic electronic boards please? Since you often don't get the red/green wires back when you're wiring a network, and since they're literally only carrying signal, it feels a bit expensive to be spending an electronic board per wire.

Re: [0.12.3]Burner Inserter Issues

I think it should stick with current refueling behaviour, in that if there is no fuel item in it's slot, it should put one in there. However, that should be it's priority action, so it should do this with the first available peice of fuel, from a belt, or box, if it would otherwise pick it up or not.
