That is an indication that you are using more than you are producing, yes. You have not communicated how this would be insufficient.

Yes? What's the problem with that?

From memory, the landing spot of that fish pod roughly matched where the pods would have normally landed into the "hole" of the hub, but looked a little to the left. I could have cut and restored power to the hub repeatedly (due to the refactoring) when it happened.


Cargo landing pads don't ...

Pretty sure that display only has precision to one decimal point and it's just rounding.

My point with the example, as clarified in the next paragraph, is that the ammo weight and extra difficulty of sending up ammo is just that. Extra. It's redundant and pointless difficulty for something that is already discouraged to the appropriate level just by the fact that it requires off ...

For example, the only reason that I didn't use uranium shells to kill my first few demolishers was because I made the mistake of bringing explosive ones instead of the super-high-penetration normal ones when I first made the trip, and I didn't want to bother sending my platform back to get them ...

A legendary tank full of legendary toolbelts has an inventory capacity of ~1055 slots

In other words, it doesn't add anything to the game or make the game better in any way. It just makes the game more annoying, or in other words less fun.


Without the restrictions on uranium export it would be the best power source on any surface with water (or you could even just drop ice from ...

Gameplay. Just look at how (some) people build Space Exploration bases.

Assuming one train network, you can also leverage the radar circuit to coordinate and communicate how many stations are requesting/supplying.

Use circuits to set its train limit to 0 when full instead of disabling it.

That has identical behavior as disabling and will not skip the station in schedule.


I was intending to point out that doing so will get the same limiting logic as he was using before, just with same-named stations ...

I have each input platform enable/disable itself based on the local stock level.



But then how can I ensure a balance between all the stops that take green circuits?

Less importantly, the individual platform ...

There's no way to do this - well, there might be but it's far too complicated if there is - using the accumulator readouts.


It can be accomplished with a single decider. (A < T1) or (S > 0 and A < T2) -> 1 S, with the output fed back into the input. T1 is your low power threshold and T2 is your ...

If by "manipulators" you mean inserters, you can. It's the only way to automate delivery of white science when you first unlock it.

A tank with a fission reactor and some shields lets you drive around without worrying about lightning, too.

Maybe not yellow/green, but definitely needs something

Removing mods doesn't always undo the changes they've made to the tech tree iirc

Is your power browning out?

Anything can be marked as a spoilage product. For example, iron ore and copper ore are spoilage products of bacteria. This would completely kill space sushi.

Connect a wire to the machine, set the machine to "set recipe". It will try to craft the item you send as a signal.

And that's where simple ends.
