I wish biters were justa bit more cunning

[Panzerknacker]

I know factorio aint no RTS but I kinda miss that you really can be defeated in this game. Like if biters would patrol ssometimes, looking for enemies, just stuff that happens independent of the polution cloud.

What do u guys think?

https://mods.factorio.com/mod/RampantFixed?from=search makes the biters a lot smarter. There are a few other mods that greatly enhance biter behavior as well, and add new types of biters (swimming, flying, tunneling, etc).

I know that rampant exists but what I mean is more that biters act like in a RTS game, e.g. send out patrols, continue trying to kill your base after they found it, even if it stopped producing pollution.

Maybe adding some slowly increasing base pollution to the game would mean they will never stop expanding and harassing you even if you stopped your pollution production

A modder should be able to make such a mod in a few minutes, unlike revamping the AI
