Re: [2.0.11] Thruster swapping Fuel and Oxidizer (mixing/fluid) (MR)





Did you read Raiguard's post just before yours? Basically connecting thrusters together like that is not allowed anymore, it just won't work by design. Fluid mixing is no longer a thing, if there is 2 different fluids then the one that is lower amount is erased from existence.

Re: Show "Pollution: -%" for Efficiency module

So there are at least these 2 options or both:
1) Changing the tooltip text for efficiency modules, clearly saying that reducing energy cost also reduces pollution.

2) New page or 2 to ingame tips about pollution. I just now did a word search in tips with "poll" and it came out nothing.

Totals for production graphs

TL;DR
It would be nice to see for example total (or average?) pollution produced in the timeline, because it is hard to tell your progress from several separated curves.

What?
While the idea doesn't only apply to pollution, it can be useful for at least kills graphs, pollution is where it makes ...

So yes i did come to notice that if they need to turn once they will drop down to the new closest angle. That's not bad actually, it's just the first shot may require some more turning if it's way wrong.

Re: [2.0.23] entity_prototype_collides returns true but shouldnt

They are likely going to need to see your source code. It takes time even for them to go through API's and figure out steps you are trying to do, of which you could have made typos too.

What does the achievement UI show you about the achievement? It should show if it's currently achievable or not.

Re: [2.0.16] Inconsistent recycle times for recipes that yield multiple items

Concrete should recycle 10 times faster.
It's annoyng how much recyclers I must put to destroy concrete. One per every five scrap recyclers.

There is a little workaround for that currently, adding a middlestep to craft the concrete into hazard concrete. That in turn will recycle much much faster ...

I haven't tried science productivity yet, but scrap productivity is capped at 300% (i hope they change it!):

I just realized that there is no documented info anywhere if scrap recycling research is affected by 300% cap or not. I can only assume that it is not.

Edit: As it is in 2.0.20 the scrap recycling is affected by 300% limit, even though in bonuses UI it says 310% in my editor save.

Re: [2.0.15] Construction robots do not set a landfill

It sounds everything's fine with the base, but then they need anything from you to help replicate the issue. Log file, screenshots or savefile? The log would show if you are using any mods for example.
