Re: Uranium Power

Explain? Why do I need to change the base area of the pumping entity for it to work with 20units-pipe? It should just connect with the pipe no? Also, I just watched a bunch of videos from Nilaus. Two things of note, actually three, but the first two: 1/ I might need to add a way to make water witho...

Re: What is your favorite part of the game, and why?

ALL OF IT! :D

There are so many things, but one thing never gets old for me is the sound and sight of robots building massive networks in seconds from blueprints. The sound of the robots "plonking" them down and the sight of cities being built is just magical

Re: City Blocks instead of Main Bus

There's no question the main bus concept has flaws, a lot of them tbh, but the problem with this is it's completely unworkable with an initial belt based setup. It puts you on the clock for getting to bots. To be fair all your really doing here is harping on the "bots are superior" line o...

Re: City Blocks instead of Main Bus

Nice idea. How many robots do you have to cover this area? Greetings steinio 10k Logistics + 4k Construction The logistics robots are not strained at all because this setup I do not unload trains with robots and the construction part of the base if relatively small. When I spam several new City Blo...

City Blocks instead of Main Bus

It seems that using a Main Bus or Central Bus is all the rave these days. Sure it is a step up from random spaghetti, but to me it doesn't scale well and doesn't lend it self easily to robotic transition. I always opt for a robot based base, but without the "spine" of the Main Bus the base...

I will watch your videos to see which edges needs to be smooth ;) If you have some specific topics you would like to get input on or have tested, then please let me know. I find that I enjoy this mod more than Angel + Bob. Where Angel and Bob add complexity, then I feel that your mod adds genuinely...

Re: From Player To Player (Theocrafting, Builds, Blueprints, Tips, Workarounds)

This post is to provide some feedback on the workings of the Yuoki mod after completing my lets play campaign (see signature). Let me start by saying how much I love this mod. It is brilliantly designed and implemented, so all my improvements/concerns should be seen in the light of me loving the mod...

Re: From Player To Player (Theocrafting, Builds, Blueprints, Tips, Workarounds)

Thanks Peppe Nice setup of the power plant. I am still not entirely sure how the temperature of the MP affects productivity. I seem to get 100% available power with the stuff coming out of the Quantrinum Reactor. I have started a Lets Play campaign focused on Yuoki. I am by no means an expert in tha...

Re: From Player To Player (Theocrafting, Builds, Blueprints, Tips, Workarounds)

Did you miss all the power options in engines? They scale from 50MW-1GW. Yes I did... The hydromechanical didn't make sense to me and I didn't spend the time to figure it out. Now I went back and played with it and can see the point. The TMFW-Gen 1.1/8.913 -S is 50MW and I do not see any bigger tha...

Re: From Player To Player (Theocrafting, Builds, Blueprints, Tips, Workarounds)

I've played through a rather long game of Yuoki to get a feel for it before a lets play. My biggest gripe was the ridiculous power need at the end game, which significantly outscales the production capabilities. Several 150 MW machines (Research Center and Alien Infuser) and even at 80% reduced they...

Re: Bus or not to Bus

I personally find a main bus very useful for a while. Angels is primarily before the bus area and Bobs in on the bus area. At a certain point I find that the number of materials I need to keep on the bus due to Bobs outweighs the benefits when you need to cross 15+ belts to get it to the machine. I ...
