Re: My space age review



the dev response was that:

Thanks for the report however this is working as intended. Combinator use the secondary input priority and so other entities get power first before they do.

As far as I’ve ever known, they were not designed to be a critical part of anything.

WTF?????????? How is it ...

Re: Trains, Circuit, and New stuff

The lists are just for your convenience, from waht I understand.

If you want to tell a station not to be a train stop, you just disable the station itself, just like in pre 2.* Factorio. You can also just enable a station when it's not full by doing the opposite. No mod needed.

Re: Game price in countries where US dollar is worth a lot


I agree with my friend's post; here in Brazil, compared to other countries, the game is inaccessible to us because of the current price. To make it more accessible and to further grow the Brazilian community, it would be great if they reviewed the regional price in Brazil.

Re: Contents decider combinator from map

That did it! It was a setting called "Show combinator settings in Alt-mode" under "Interface". Thanks so much!

Contents decider combinator from map

I was playing what I thought was vanilla K2 on a computer where I could see the "contents" of the decider combinators from the map with "Alt" turned on. Now, I'm playing the same game on a different computer, and I don't have access to the other one. I generally don't use mods, so I really doubt ...

Book Review: The Score

Here's a book review about a book written by a philosopher who argues that doing things (like playing games) for the sake of doing things, without trying to achieve a score, is more satisfying than chasing some arbitrary goal. Sounds like he'd be a huge fan of Factorio, if he isn't already. It also ...

Re: [K2] No mining needed: Is that a good thing?

I just played K2 for the first time, so that's why I was asking the question. It's different from other mods in that you can get all resources infinitely, with no mining. Even in Space Age, you still need to mine to get stuff late game (fluorine,holmium, yumako, jellynuts,etc) even with high quality ...

[K2] No mining needed: Is that a good thing?

I'm playing Krastorio 2 for the first time. I really enjoy it. It's a great mod. However, toward the end, once you research the various matter converting technologies, you don't need to mine for anything any more. I'm playing now with 0 miners and 0 pumpjacks.

Re: My space age review



Quality basically allows you to "build tall" rather than "build wide." But if you don't want to mess with quality, there's nothing wrong with building wide. It just means you build more machines or bigger space platforms.


Right. The amount of stuff you need to build to make everything ...

For me personally it was a missbuy.

Personally, I don't know of any video game that provides more ...

There are also things called "telephones" that allow people to talk to each other, too. And those don't even eat up any of your Internet connection!

Re: 65535 max slots on a ship?

The 65535 is a limitation of how this piece of the game was programmed. The developers chose to use a type variable for this number that has a maximum of 65535: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/65,535
You'll also see this limitation when you look at the total number of missing items needed for the bots ...

It looks like in both crashes you were searching for some tag, and then deleted one of them and it crashed. I've been trying to reproduce any crash but so far haven't had any success.
