Re: Player Logistic Slot Feature

As long as we're coloring things, how about highlighting requests that are actively being filled? Red: Current logistics network has none of this item (or no network in range) Yellow: Current logistics network is sending what it has, but it doesn't have enough. Green: Current logistics network has t...

Re: Cargo aircraft as a new logistic option

Initial thoughts: Why have invisible tracks at all? If we're assuming that aircraft don't (usually) re-path while in flight, pretty much all of the pathfinding simplifies to a couple of arcs that can be calculated once and cached for future planes. Much like the old "bots die when they run out ...

The corpse age being zero isn't a bug, no. But displaying that as " ago" instead of, say, "0 seconds ago" is.

Re: Biter Attack Alarm with Combinator and Speakers

Got a chance to test each of the modules. The detector on the laser turret was more complicated than expected, but it all appears to work. Here's a blueprint of the testing setup I made. It uses a couple of Creative Mode components to provide ammo and power, but it should be pretty easy to hook up t...

Re: Biter Attack Alarm with Combinator and Speakers

I'll test some of this later when I'm not at work, but here's my preliminary thoughts: I'm assuming, for simplicity's sake, that the flamethrowers are always using light oil and the turrets are always using uranium ammo. Ammo check on the turrets should be simple. Three combinators per segment. Flam...

Re: Mod Request/Idea: Ocean Ships

I like the idea, but it might be more complex than you'd expect. AAI's vehicles tap into the biter AI for pathfinding, which (for obvious reasons) won't calculate paths across water. A "shipping lane" system might work decently well, though without a pathfinding engine behind it you'd have...
