With respect to red mud...I like the idea that i have to do something with it, but I wish the solution was better than to fill up a bunch of containers.... for me this mostly means coming through and deconstructing them every once in a while, which has no consequence because the red mud just vanishe...

I think something is wrong with the electric furnaces in the alpha? I can't put anything into them and all the recipes are red. EDIT: Okay, after I researched tin / lead, I saw a different set of recipes and I can make solder in it. Can we no long make iron-plates without a fuel burning furnace? If ...

I love seeing the positive feedback for this mod. I'm still having a lot of fun with version 3.4 and I'm excited to see what the next version will bring. I will miss my current factory, but with so many hours into in already, I might be ready to move on. I initially played on hard mode, but eventual...

This is a good mod and people should try it out.

I don't build the destroyer capsules... I like to use the distractor ones (which are good enough) + an upgraded shotgun. I try and use the capsules to attack the aliens and as, best as possible, go for the nest and worms first, but to keep from getting overwhelmed sometimes you need to clear the ene...

Here is my arrangement for 20 steam engines, about 10 MW. I used a spiral design to fit things nice and tight, and I added a couple of extra pipes to make room for power lines. The water lines for each side are separate.
