You miss one important factor, with red ammo the biter would haved died twice as fast. And wouldn't i be reasonable if you are at that stage i could have green ammo and upgrade cost from red to green is trivial and at T6 green is cheapter than yellow to use. Red is only useful if yellow isn't killin...

I did the time and crunched the numbers myself, with the 3 different formulas in the wiki. Here are the bullets needed to kill a biter bulletschart.PNG here is the chart with your cost costchart.PNG I added the .ods if someone feels to need to verify it. The nerf of the yellow ammo while make the fi...

I had a bit fun doing a BTK (Bullets to Kill) overview of the different ammos, and then wanted to see if it add up with ingame stuff. Without upgrades it should take 84 shots of yellow ammo to kill a medium biter. With 1 Turret i get 90 bullets used, Stack of 10 magazines reduced to singel full one....

How did you calculated shots to kill? Is this only for gun turrets? How would it change for the other weapons that don't get double damage bonus? The science cost to reach Damage bonus 11 is huge as well. And while a Gunturret will do 120 dmg the Tank will only do 21, maybe the argument could be mad...

Crashes if i try to open the Outpost mulitple times with this error: The mod Pyanodons AlienLife (1.12.4) caused a non-recoverable error. Please report this error to the mod author.

I personally prefer the current water implementation over your mockup water picture.

You can already do that if you limit the item count via circuit network instead of limiting the chests space.

Did you try any of the solution out of the commen graphic problem thread?

Forcing OpenGL might solve the issue.

I "updated" the mod for 1.1. (Just changed the info.json)

I don't agree that this game needs more biters or expantions on the combat mechanics. Combat is a sidenote and i don't want it to be busy work, i have enough to do within the factory. I don't know how many players want to extend on combat, acutuelly no one does. Most Players are a silent majority an...

I patched this, since the setting gui didn't close anymore in 0.18.x . I also added variable underground lenght for the vanilla belts, you have to choose the belt type in settings beforehand now. I wanted to fix the issue where the pathfinder put undergoundbelt in places where other belts are, but t...

Lets imagine this scenario: I join a Server, the players tehere don't like my choosen player color. They vote me off the server. Report 1? Then i join another server caus i wanna play. I want to do combat, bute people disagree and vote me off again. Report 2? I join a third server, someone sees i ha...

The visualization is dependent on Signal placement, if you placed a Signal already on the Track the train can only in one way. If you place two Signals next to each other at the start of your station you can switch previews of the wagons by switching the side of the old signal.

I like the current Setting for the reason i can choose what i want for my game experience. There is always a learning curve in every game and i fail to see how easier recepies would change that. The extended tutorial (campaign) for new players isn't even done yet, it might help a ton understanding t...

But would that button sync mods if you changed them in between? Or does it load the last save with the mods currently enabled?

It wouldn't hurt to have it, but i see no point in an "Resume Game" button, since there can be multiple possible savestates the
player wants to continue.

Since FPS and UPS are tied together this is to expected, same happens in the other direction if you hit simulation cap (ups and fps drops). On faster speeds performance issues would show up faster and more noticable.

You could use a this mod for .16:

I Think this just boils down to what should be the "default" difficulty, and should it cater to new players and how much should it do? Maybe they should just add in a "Easy Start" setting with a bigger starting zone. I think the default is good as it is, you can get a challenging...

Yeah that fixed the mining part for me. It was not easy to draw the conclusion: Use the crystal mine for quartz ore.

I use the following pymods: Py Coal 1.0.11 Py-Fusion Energy 1.0.8 Py High Tech 1.0.10 Py Industry 1.0.11 Py Raw Ores 1.01 There is no way to craft the first science Pack, since i can't mine Quartz for Glass. I see no other way to get quartz or glass. Additionally not all Research topics are shown in...
