It does look to be a part of polishing. Making sure everything uses the same naming scheme is important if you want to be thorough.

Does help to guide the player in the process of making the cells, before worrying about how to use them for power. And lets you have uranium products for non-nuclear power usage without needing to grab the nuclear power technology. Say if you only wanted the uranium ammo.

If you just want to place huge chunks of concrete you can use the "+" and "-" from the numpad to increase the size of the "cursor". (I hope i did not missunderstand you) You can also do that, but I'm talking huge spots of concrete. I'll lay it down myself when I need t...

Yes, because to the flat damage reduce. I have the second damage upgrade already, which cost a whooping 800. Three will be 1200 with military science! So that will take quite some time too. Yes one problem of piercing ammo is that it's not more cost effective. Another is that I will need lots of co...

The why does the accumulators have such a limited power output? Because it's possible to build things for different uses. An accumulator is an industrial building for regulating the usage of large amounts of power over long periods of time. It's a very different usage than the battery for power arm...

I need to know how to upgrade concrete and stone roads with blueprint. Make a blueprint, up at the top there should be two checkboxes. One for entities and one for tiles. Check the tiles one if you want it to care about the ground tiles aka stone and concrete. You can also uncheck the entities box ...

How did you determine that cost ? Specifically the oil part of it...

Ignored it mostly. It usually takes awhile before I'm limited by oil costs compared to iron and copper. So talking about the initial cost of 480 MW compared to nuclear I didn't worry about oil.

Is it? A 4 core reactor pumps out 480MW. A solar panel gives averages out 42kw. One quad-reactor gives enough energy to replace over 11000 solar panels. 11k solar panels (not even including accumulators) is no joke. There's absolutely good reason to try using nuclear power. I'd think so? I'll crunc...

Why? Nuclear's not even that good compared to solar anyway. No need to make it even worse. Doesn't make sense either. Centrifuges aren't energy intensive buildings.

Yea, they're pretty bad given the base numbers. Which is sad, because they seem exactly like the way to do combat "right" from a gameplay perspective. Making them increases player combat potential, but requires a good amount of resources to attack. Comparably much of the other combat items...

For early defense the +damage upgrades work really well. The first upgrade alone doubles the damage output against medium biters with basic ammunition. (Yes, doubles. Not an exaggeration.) The second upgrade triples the damage compared to no upgrades. It's pretty required if you're still using the b...

What is the point of KS Power in this modpack? Bob adds tiered liquid fuel gens which imo work out nicer than KS's Oil Burner and Diesel line, and Burner isnt really needed. You could argue that it is there as solid fuel drain, but such drains are mostly used by people who dont want it to go to was...

Their current view with technologies is to have anything unlocked be usable when you research it. You shouldn't need another tech in order to make or use it. So because uranium ammo gives uranium tank shells then that is required. Now they could split it up, sure, but I don't think that would be bet...

Always love seeing graphical bugs like that. Wouldn't it be strange to see if blood actually stuck around in areas? Like mass murder of bugs would slowly turn the section redder?

Not much. In 0.16 you rapidly go from 0 items to 104 items, then you have to do a little dance to get your assembly machine 2 as #105, and you can't get assembly machine 3 without a refinery so your first refinery has to be handcrafted as #106. So without the ingredient limit, you just stop at #104...

So I played through and did fail as well. Looking at the reasoning behind how the biters work compared to my methods, I can see why I failed. See, normally I'd say the game focuses on automation. You want to be producing enough to meet your needs, which usually means enough for science, enough for b...

Should be straightforward. You'll have a slight increase in difficulty compared to a regular start from the beginning being slow, but not needing assembly 2 to really get started is a big boost.

Played a bit earlier, didn't get all the way through, but here are my observations: The bits where the camera zooms over to look at the oncoming biters felt dull. Really seemed like a bit where I was expecting some sort of talk from the compilatron explaining what was happening. Something simple lik...

Basically title. I go to change the volumes and it takes awhile. Up to a minute for it to register. Program is stopped otherwise while changing.

Personally I'd just store them for later. That's a lot of repair packs to go through, but if the game lasts long enough you might see them all get used. But the easiest way to get rid of them would be to setup a separate spot and place a lot of chests with requests for repair packs. Then nuke it/fla...
