Roughly 80 hours. Wasted a lot of time on Gleba before that tho. I also invested waaaaaay too much time and resources in the new ship for outer system flight.

Time on Aquilo itself was pretty short. I might have worked longer on the production platform that is placed in orbit and sends stuff down to the planet, than on the planet itself.

My ramshackle base on Gleba is a weird mix of sushi belts and excessive bot use. Without them my design would break down.

And don’t be concerned about energy. The Gleba recipe for rocket fuel is super easy and you can easily use it to supply multiple rockets and a setup of heating towers + turbines. It’s enough to provide power to hundreds of bots and dozens of tesla towers.

Oh thank the gods. I thought I was the only one who constantly goes overkill with the rockets.

Here to say that the space and Vulcanus soundtracks are 🔥

What a weird looking penis…Well, my first one doesn’t look much better. It’s even still in use between Nauvis and Vulcanus. I’m just too lazy to upgrade it to a newer design.

Behold! The Indestructible 2!

What an interesting way to formulate your question. It’s literally flame baiting.

Definitely this. OP should try to position the shoehorn alongside his leg. If you use it in a wider angle over and over, not only makes it the process harder and more uncomfortable, it also bends the metal after some time.

Ooooor, OPs feet are a freaky affront to nature.

Rushed to the rocket yesterday night. Took me about 12 hours. I shot a couple of platforms and buildings up just to make myself comfortable with the new mechanics up there.

Other than that I finally secured my base in a very wide area, so I don’t have to keep rebuilding the defences. But it looks like I still have to. The world generator thought it would be funny when I didn’t have any iron near my starting area. I’m fucking broke on iron and steel. I found a couple of rich patches but they are deep in enemy territory. It’s time to take the war to the biters.

So on today’s menu we have iron and blood.

Nah, had to take my vacation days for stupid things like HoLiDaYs and tRaVeLlInG. Bad choices have been made.

I can’t. Working to ensure continuation of existence. Which in itself is bullshit.

I’m about 5 hours in alone and fully automated everything up until bots. I don’t think I’m gonna leave my starter base alone after building my real base. Somehow, don’t ask me how, I build my starter base good enough to just build upon and upgrade it.

My goals for today are finding iron (because RN-Jesus is an asshole), building some kind of defence (my entire last hour yesterday was an reenactment of the Starship Troopers opening scene) and blasting my first rocket into orbit.

The QoL improvements are great. My favourite so far are the groups you can enable and disable for different requests from the logistics network. Also the interrupt option with trains will make things a lot easier as soon as the trains a running.

I don’t see a problem with this. There is a saying among German mathematicians “Don’t try to reinvent the wheel.” When other peoples design is better, you should feel encouraged to copy it. That’s what factorioblueprints is there for. Learning from each other is a HUGE part of the game.

But yeah, playing alone does wonders for learning the game. Just yesterday I relearned that rushing for bots is good, but completely ignoring defences is not.

I like to join, but I have a strict “solo first” rule with games. I will come back as soon as I’m done!

That I am aware of…since a couple of weeks ago. But come to think of it, I am just now remembering how I configured every single cargo rocket in Space Exploration manually.

Maybe I should pay more attention when watching doshdoshingtons videos.

Didn’t know Steam was still operating in Russia. Kinda makes sense it being the third biggest user base.

Still gonna count it as another reason not to use Steam anymore tho.

Causing a couple of circuits to burn out. Kickstarting the Flayed Ones.

I am adapting this as headcanon now.

They have been engineered by the Old Ones. So I’m just gonna assume, they didn’t think of that when the Necron and C’tan came knocking on their doors.

And some of the studios are doing great! Releasing fantastic games and being shut down shortly after.

Idk. 700ml?

I think I would buy a lemmy.world mug, as long as it’s a huge one. Don’t know about ads tho. Selling user data would end with everyone scrambling their content into Lorem ipsum and scatter to smaller instances. Lemmings are different from redditors.
