Actually it looks like it tried to crash, but then again crashed during crashing and halted as a result. AM interface was opened and cursor was over result item, so recipe for that item was displayed. When I pressed 'E' to close AM interface the game stopped responding for input and sounds died out ...

No, that mining setup burns coal to mine coal :) Feeding the miners directly into each other limits the amount stored to the max stacksize. My setup is only limted by the chest size. Usually at that stage of the game you collect coal very often, so chances to reach stack size limit are very low. At...

@Boogieman14: This coal mining setup just burns coal for nothing. You can put 2 miners to face each other and, as a result, feed each other. Usually first 3 couples of miner+furnace I set on iron. It's most significant bottleneck early on. Then 2 self-feeding miners for coal, and 2 for stone. Then 2...

I prefer solar over steam engines. Space is not really a problem even on hard mode. Yes, if juice in batteries runs out before the night ends, you will be in trouble. But time of absolute darkness is relatively short. If your solar power setup is flowed, you have whole day to fix it. Without much ru...

Oh. Cool. Thanks.

Hm. Previously, with game.gettext, you could have placeholders in your localized texts (in script-locale),
and replace them with localized names of items.
How this can be achieved now?

We were thinking of some kind of "simple drawing tool" that would be in a layer "above" the map. The other thing (which has also been brought up multiple times I believe) is a planning tool. That would work in a similar manner to creating ghost buildings but with a difference th...

Yeah, C++11 makes a lot of things much nicer to do. However, overuse of 'auto' makes sources, while shorter, but harder to read. Also, is you have proper class Rect with iterator, begin and end, you can write something like this: for(Pos pos:Rect(from,sz)) { ... } instead of Pos pos=from; Pos till=f...

Yep, the game definitely needs couple more patches to be stable enough.

Great idea about multiplayer. I wish to participate, although my pronunciation might be quite bad

Distractor capsules are superior to Destroyer capsules when there are A LOT of biters. Destroyer are firing at closest target. If biters are spawned faster then you can destroy them, destroyers are not helping you to kill the spawner. You can simply throw 2-3 distractor capsules on top of spawner an...

Distractor capsule cost quite a lot of resources, and takes significant amount of time to produce.
It should be at least somewhat effective, right?
However, they seem to me more effective then Destroyer capsules, and that is something to think about.

quick answer: you can. type '/c command'

atm you can 'disassemble' an item with my barter mod

I think it would be supernice to be able to make subj.
i.e. add all items required to make item in AM to request slots of the chest.

I agree that map should be reworked in many aspects. First - I want to close it with escape or e, like chests and machines. That would complicate everything, if the map view is integrated into the game, when you zoom out it changes into map,zoom in is the normal view. So what is missing is just to ...

I agree that map should be reworked in many aspects. First - I want to close it with escape or e, like chests and machines. Second - yes, resource overlay highlighting would be supergreat. God knows how many times I missed smallish, yet helpful, iron deposits. Third - current zoom levels are way too...

@Lumikins: I was thinking about something like this. Like one time and repeatable orders. But current mod GUI desperately needs something like ListBox, or at least something scrollable.
All my attempts at prototyping trading GUI ended up with something really clumsy and inconvenient.
