Re: Simple Questions and Short Answers

There is a guide for two-way rails :

(Which could perhaps be made simpler by forbidding one-directional trains ??)

Re: Gleba has killed the game for me.

While a dumb working system is already quite rewarding to do, it's even more rewarding that it still has a lot of room of improvement : to maximize freshness : which becomes especially noticeable once you start exporting Agricultural science instead of consuming it there on the spot !

Re: [Genhis][2.0.11] Roboports queue logic 2.0 not working

Yes, maybe (though I doubt it), but nothing changes about that in 2.0.21, that's my point.
Only robots not going over a lake are affected by the 2.0 => 2.0.21 change.

If a robot is going over a 'lake', then the exception of going over a 'lake' will apply.

Re: [Genhis][2.0.11] Roboports queue logic 2.0 not working

Just to be clear, the fix we're now talking about was already in 2.0.0(?), and was talked about in that FFF , while the one coming to 2.0.21 is a different one. So I'm skeptical that it hasn't been caught in ~15 months of closed beta testing, as well as a month of release... The 'oscillating' bit wa...

How do you weigh cycles, alternate recipes, productivity changing base resources for different chains differently, separate chains for the same result ?

Re: Gleba early game should be made easier significantly

Would be nicer if the evolution curves where adjusted to be something more like Nauvis, where the stronger enemies are introduced gradually. Actually, Gleba enemies and spawn rates were rebalan ed in 2.0.17, so it should already feel smoother. I don't know what they were before 2.0.17, but this isn...

Re: [Genhis][2.0.11] Roboports queue logic 2.0 not working

What kind of layout would that be ? So we changed the selection logic, so that the robot tries to always charge at a roboport that is closer to the destination than the robot is. This means that even if the robot will potentially fly with low energy for longer, it will always be able to make some pr...

Re: Ability to craft lower quality with higher quality

In terms of mixing I I found one place where it would still be good despite I generally think mixing wouldnt work: Plastic. I keep my lines mixed until I have iron or copper plates... the same would be nice for plastic as it just takes one coal. Mixed lines is kind of dangerous... but one thing tha...

Re: Went to Gleba first -- how to deal with stompers?

I can imagine it would be important to clear out some more space for your spore cloud to naturally dissipate and to allow you time to upgrade your defences. I just got biolabs at 0.76 evolution (DWM), and so far my tactic of killing regular rafts while leaving small rafts alive seems to still work ...

Re: Gleba early game should be made easier significantly

Have you checked that it isn't already the case for the small rafts ?

Also, we're discussing Death World, so asking for weaker enemies seems a bit weird ?

Re: Sort asteroid chunks to the bottom of hub inventory

(To be fair my main issue was that I was long-storing chunks only in the hub, because the belt was only pass-through for them, but that seems to be an easy mistake to make when trying to keep logical conditions to a minimum ?)

Re: Sort asteroid chunks to the bottom of hub inventory

Also, storing chinks in the hub seems to be kind of a trap anyway, (as mentioned by Tinyboss : «Unless storing chunks in the hub is a weird technique that's not meant to be used»), since I made a slightly different spaceship design that doesn't make them go through the hub (and doesn't make ammo go ...

Re: Sort asteroid chunks to the bottom of hub inventory

Yes, those filter slots would be 'lost' (and items kicked out of these slots) until you get these inventory spaces back, just like with filtered slots in personal inventory.

It's not like there's a good reason to remove cargo bays unless you're in the process of rebuilding the platform ?
