Factorio Forums

Now that we are slowly stabilizing and improving the recent mod. It´s a good idea to start (like staaaaaaaaart) to imagine and concept what we should do next. So, please, vote and the winner will be the next mod of Pysuite we will work on. The poll will be automatically closed in 15 days.

Pyanodon, can ask u what we can we can except from py raw ores digging? what the goal of this mod? How big in its design it can be compared to previous mods
Its looks like PYHT turned out very grandiose and tremendous
And about py petroleum handling - maybe you'll try to touch on natural gas processing
What we can do in py alien life processing?

I sure u'll not change any science packs, so there're'll be another interesting goal

Donno what to choose

Cant do much spoilers but yeah..PyHT was a big mod...similar do the base mod (pYcoal). The raw ores will override all bobs ores, each one with his own particular realistic-based (focus on BASED), not a real chain. It would go from extraction to refinement. With Raw ores, we can be 100% independent of bobs as well as i can add or remove some ores and resources in the game. New forms to get ores, mega structures and such. It would be a big one.
The petroleum handling will do the same as raw ores, but with oil and their products. New oil related products, some unconventional oils and all the chain from extract to refinement. Alien life you will basically research, grow and breed alien plants, microorganisms, fungi and animals, keep and improve food chains and such to extract valuable organic materials to your factory. All that are just a very very very resumee of the ideas.

I vote Financial or Alien Life. There's already enough "different ore processing" or "more solar panels" mods, need something new and original! :P

It seems one of these you dont want, might win.

I agree.

I am curious though what "alternative energy" might involve - Fusion Energy already provided a ton of alternatives to vanilla power generation.

I would love "different ore processing" most likely, but because I'm already attached to Angel's refining mechanics, and it seems unlikely that these two wouldn't walk all over each other, I went elsewhere.

Pyanodon - you are the rare combination of both a very prolific and incredibly creative modder; and it shows, your mods are extremely fun to play through. I implore you to do something truly unique that Factorio has not seen before and take this "pY Financial" mod to fruition. There could be a whole new light to this game not yet seen before, and I think there's some fun and strikingly different gameplay to be had from a mod that may factor in a miniature economic system based around financial supply/demand rather than just supply/demand of commodities. Anyways, made this account to show my appreciation and give my input. I absolutely love your mods, and it gives me something to do after hours at the lab when I need to stay late.

The graphic implies that you're going to do the others anyway and we're just voting on the order. I can wait :P.

hahaha dunno if factorio will endure that much time needed to add all that and if i or nexela will be around for that long. But we keep going.

Well. It's ultimately your choice what you're gonna do. Personally i wouldn't rely on non-representive forum polls with this few votes. I mod the stuff i like most ;p.

was always like that. And im ok in do whatever mod is picked. All of them i have ideas to

I'm going to say either Ores or Alien Life seem the most interesting, and financial the least (mostly as I don't feel it really fits the game, but feel free to prove me wrong)

As for why the Ores appeals, I'm hoping it'll kind expand on the idea of: More complex process = greater returns, like how your power houses aren't just like plopping down more boilers but instead generate a lot of power if the work's put into them.
The Alien Life one, I'm kind of interested in, although as the game is now, I feel like a lot of space is already taken up with pastures and animal pens.

Petrochem I'm interested but wary, as I found Angels could be quite a chore at times (although part of that is my insistence on voiding as little as possible )

when playing with pYmods, void and destroy stuff must be part of your schedule xD but thanks for the vote. and yes, you´re right.

Pyanodon, what will Alternative Energy mod do?
Solar? Hydro? Other things?
Will it be big?

all of them.

Hamster whells?

PY Raw Ores Digging - is suppose it can be some analog of angel's refining? - if it so then there's little chance of compatibility, bcuz the primary mechanisms of extraction and processing simply will not work with each other

Unless "Raw Ores Digging" just changes the way that the ores are extracted from the ground and leaves the refining alone. But I suppose there's little chance of that given how broadly the other mods spread their tendrils into all parts of the game.

Oh My! I am really excited to play with all this mods together (maybe after some YEARS lol )
Raw Ore Digging looks nice, but Petroleum Handling makes me scare because looks really complex,more than the usual PY complexibility (if it can be more complex )

I think nothing can be more complex than the actual pyHighTech mod
