well.. here's what it does, I guess...

WE'RE BACK IN BUISNESS!
(if any icons are broken, blame society.)
(i think i fixed that)
(due to my text editor creating "backups" of every file i make, the sizes of the packages will be awkward.)

that is all. carry on.

soon: Nothing???


the purpose of this mod is almost completely pointless. almost all ideas given have a [inf] chance to be added to the final product.
in the end, this mod will be so pointless that everyone will wonder why I even made it.
NOTICE:
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO FIX IT
I LIKE MY BROKEN JUNK

I thought i'd post a pointless message here. If that's ok..

it's always ok

<ssilk points for a moment over 'close thread' because of pointlessness, then he suddenly realized, that - although he points - even that is pointless>

*insert pointless point pun here*

i need ideas of pointless things to put in the game

Have you considered adding items/recipes for items that do nothing? That would be pretty pointless.

I know:
- a recipe for a chest with no inventory.
- a smart inserter, that changes its filter randomly.
- a paper factory, which makes long sleeves of paper from wood, and a point factory, which draws points on the paper (for lesser pointlessness)

I made that chest you wanted

LOL in pointless way

I just can't stop laughing...

so:
the random filter inserter won't be possible due to reasons
you can't have a recipe with nothing in the output
i've had to re-install the game about 12 times.

MODS ARE FUN

and i need some new ideas...

- Extremely slow inserter?
- Some useless pointless ore that spawn in very small, but frequent patches, and have to be removed by the ocd freaks?
- Armour with negative resistances?

- Who did this pointless mod ?
- Nobody.
- OK. Seems legit.

- slow inserter is in progress
- i feel like extra ore would have a point to it, so i might think about it
- armor is done

Can you change the winning conditions of the game? Seems like in your mod placing down a rocket defense shouldn't end the game. It should just last forever with no goal to be completely pointless. Otherwise the mod just doesn't feel right tbh. Cheers!

- Nobody knows
- *is named Nobody*
- darn it, Nobody!
TL;DR i'm literarily speaking to Nobody

also pointless machine that uses electricity and does nothing

well, you thought of the idea, i'd like you to chose what it looks like.

ok so i might edit this post if i make a sketch or something, but what im currently imagining is a machine that consumer electricity and stone, grinds the stones together and outputs pointless dust. The machine would have the standard assembly machine walls, maybe made sturdier or with concrete corners, with a open top where one can visibly see two round grindstones running in opposite directions against each other

so i spent the last 10 minutes drawing this, i feel sorry for the graphics designers now
(picture is huge, imgur link provided here: http://imgur.com/mRTIGAG) the retarded stuff on the left is supposed to be like the moving thingys ontop of the assembly machines, and the other retarded circly stuff with lines in them is supposed to be fans
both of the big cylindrical grindstones go clockwise. Grayed out areas can be anything between rust and fainted colors

i cant friggin draw
