I think I've come up with something close to the ideal furnace setup, but it's too difficult to take screenshots, so I'll just describe it. Someone else is welcome to make a screenshot and share it (it's not as if an idea can be copyrighted anyway). Many furnace setups have two Belt lines, in betwe...

Is there any way to split a line 3 ways, or 6 ways? Yeah, math was never my strong suit in school... but it seems to me that if you're dealing with a splitter that always takes 50%, it would be kind of difficult to split a line 33/33/33. Unless there's some fancy belt trick to do this? Looking at a ...

Hi all. I've been trying to wrap my head around the concept of the fast and express belts, and am a bit confused. As far as my brain's logic can tell, faster belts are only useful where a bottleneck might occur (such as a bend or curve in the belt). As an example, let's say an ore miner is mining 1 ...

Had to change the yellow dirt as well.

Yay! Looks awesome, thanks a million.

The game kind of reminds me of when I used to play Civ 4 a lot. I could sit for an hour or two trying to generate a map that was to my liking. This game, however, is not quite as bad. I can usually find a decent map after hitting the Restart button less than 20 times. My issue is that I don't find a...

You can't half the items if you're using the numerical keys to access quickbar items.

Since you're good with the graphic assets, any chance you could make a mod that changes the mustard yellow of the desert biome to a more sand-like beige coloring? Currently I can't play any games in the desert, that color is so offensive to my eyes.

I also should note (since you state you do things differently and it's never been an issue), that I was watching a Let's Play video series on YouTube and the narrator also complained about how he "hates the fact that the ammo doesn't go to my quickbar". So I'm not the only one.

Pick up items out of your inventory, drop on ground (Z key), walk away. You now have nothing.

I'm using the WaiTex texture mod, and find it highly distracting to have "base->WaiTex" displayed in bright yellow text in the info-box whenever I hover my mouse over an entity. I already know that the mod is there, since I'm the one that installed it. I don't need to be reminded in bright...

One of the things about this game I find quite annoying: I'll use the middle mouse button to reserve a place on my quickbar for piercing rounds. I'll put 100 of them on the quickbar. I'll place a turret, press the corresponding number key to place the ammo in my hand, drop the ammo in the turret, us...

First of all, thanks for all the hard work, it looks great! I was wondering if there's any way possible to prevent the game from displaying "base->WaiTex" in yellow in the info-box when I hover my mouse over an entity? The rest of the text is white, and that yellow immediately draws the ey...

Hi all. One thing that I find very lacking in the vanilla game is the alert system for when your turrets kill enemies. The "triangle alert symbol" can last as little as 1/2 a second, it seems, if it's a single biter rapidly killed by one or two turrets. The problem with vanilla is that the...
