That's really cool, thanks for posting it!

Based on hours played it's X3:Albion Prelude, by a very wide margin. I've never played another game that took me from piloting a single crappy ship to commanding fleets of thousands, while feeling interesting and meaningful at every step in between. But absolutely, positively, DO NOT get X:Rebirth. ...

Unless there is an actual third dimension, with belts crossing one another etcetera, then I don't see how adding elevation really changes anything. How do you envision the game being different once this is added? Are the differences interesting, or just tedious?

I can see that being frustrating when that one step puts you onto a transport belt. Or a railroad track. Or within aggro range of a nest.

A better solution might be a visible build radius when a buildable object is in hand.

This looks really great!

Also fully read what i post. If you have facts, please post them and correct me. Before someone actually copypastes written rules of this topic, i say what i think is right. These are just my opinions. Next time you try to read between the lines of someones post and start quoting something out of c...

I don't know about regular building placement, but most definitely the player should not block blueprint placement.

Just by publishing a mod in here you are giving it free to the players to use it as they wish. It is only a good policy to give credit for the original mod creator and nothing more. If someone does not do it, it is not against any kind of rules or rights. this is how it is he does not need to ask f...

I think the official rule for distributing mod packs (on this forum) should be that explicit permission of mod authors is required--either because they explicitly allowed it in their license, or because they were asked for and gave permission. The onus should be on the person compiling the mod pack ...

I know this isn't on par with your question. It's more of a side note... You really only need 1 plastics plant. I never found a reason to have more than one. Only need one plastics plant for what? I've seen people on here discussing "One missile defense every X minutes" factories, and I'm...

I strongly support this. In fact, it's the way I'd expect it to work even without shift/control clicking. I was a bit surprised by the all-or-nothing current behavior.

Nice! Also, I think an inserter keychain would be pretty sweet.

To the OP, what does this suggestion add to the game? Is it just some time-sink that I have to go through every time before I can build in an area, or does it open up new options and interesting choices? I think complexity should be actively avoided when it doesn't meet that test.

Lighted electric poles, now THAT's a great idea.

It's one of the most common suggestions, so I hope we'll get it someday. Along with that, I think it'd be cool if some recipes produced waste products that have to be disposed of, too.

Every other producer in the game stops producing when the products back up. Why should the refinery be any different? Stuff has to go somewhere. On a more helpful note, you could plan ahead with a few storage tanks for light and heavy oil. Advanced Oil Processing will make everything easier by letti...

Oops, I guess I clicked it too hard!

...that there is already a Tips and Tricks thread.

Trains. A lot of people would like inserters to be unable to take fuel out of trains, both for consistency and for more flexibility in station design, but some people seem opposed to that. I think those in opposition think that the current behavior is consistent, and that it provides flexibility in...

I clicked that "vote" button so hard.
