Re: Friday Facts #351 - Beacon re-redesign & Simplified fluid mixing

The delete button is a major 4th wall breaker imho. It would be much more elegant to add a gas flare or burn off tower item that lets players vent fluids. It could have a color changing spray or flame depending on whats being vented.

Re: Friday Facts #321 - Countdown

I love you guys, you have given me so many hours of enjoyment but... September 2020 for just nitpicks?! Why not just say "soon™"? I feel like your nitpicks at this point are purely inconsequential and kinda ruin existing gameplay like renaming existing API calls for pedantics and redoing f...

Re: Friday Facts #312 - Fluid mixing saga & Landfill terrain

Please stop messing with established mechanics. Was fluid mixing annoying? Yes. Is this better? Not necessarily, your gif shows a quite awful example. Does this change add to the game? Absolutely not. Feels like so much cool stuff could have been done with all that time. I feel like my favorite game...

Re: Friday Facts #293 - New remnants 2 & 1.0 Marketing plan

Breaking mods at this point in the name of something as inconsequential as a confusing name that's worked for a very long time seems silly. I hope enough mod authors are still around to work through it.

Re: [MOD 0.16.x]Helmod: Assistant to plan its base.

This is what I get on a 3840x2160 screen set to fullscreen in game options. I currently have interface scaling set to 130 however it seems to get worse if I turn the scaling down. https://i.imgur.com/zyGWmrq.jpg Let me know if you need more details, I'll try to remember to check back in case you nee...

Re: Friday Facts #224 - Bots versus belts

I'm sure this will be missed but here's my two cents It's pretty simple, if the bots are too easy and boring make them less easy and less boring. A couple ideas: Make them take more energy every time they recharge on a single trip. This adds a scaling factor that can't be solved with just more bots....

Re: Friday facts #151 - The plans for 0.14

I love the idea of nuclear but I think it shouldn't manage itself. It should be a requirement to use a basic circuit to manage it. Like managing control rod position and water/steam flow. If you've played the big reactors mod in minecraft I really think that's the right way to do it. If you could se...

Re: Friday Facts #148 - Optimizations for 0.14

We really need nuclear where things like control rods or turbines and water are controlled through circuits. Similar to Big Reactors in minecraft if anyone's used that, only this should be more advanced and it should blow up if done incorrectly. It would also be interesting to have to deal with nucl...

Re: Friday Facts #141 - Mod Portal

Just because a system is not really much used, doesn't mean it should not be available. What's the problem with a five star system? People who would use "like" / "dislike" can just rate it 5 or 1 star - but the other people can use 2, 3 or 4 stars. To be honest, I first look at ...

Re: Friday Facts #141 - Mod Portal

5 star scoring never works. There are a million places you can look for this to be demonstrated, any app store for starters. The bad apps have 1 star, the great ones have 4 3/4 stars and every single on in between has 4 1/2 stars. It's a horrible system and it never works despite the 3 people commen...

Wait you are planning to have the game dial home to your server when it starts??? UNACCEPTABLE! I hate it when programs try to connect without my permission. If I'm playing single player, lan or even direct IP, it should not be connecting to your servers... not unless I specifically tell it too bec...
