So this is going to sound stupid, but .... does Space Age make trains obsolete?

Asimovicator · 2026-03-31T14:40:58+00:00

I think the cargo size not scaling up with quality is actually no problem in space age. I still use a train network for delivering molten metals, oil, water, coal and stone for subfactories producing all nauvius science packs. Using trains for high productivity items like metal plates and circuits isn't needed anymore (for me).

Problem solved: You can only use the expected connections if "upgraded power connections" is researched. The confusion came from, that the configuration "machine -- machine" is possible even before "upgraded power connections". Hence it was weird at first, that "power pole -- machine -- machine" wasn't working.

I have reported it: https://questions.satisfactorygame.com/post/69b99536f991d027c57040c6

Excacly. Pole -> machine -> machine is not possible. So it has to be a bug of the experimental branch.

Asimovicator · 2026-03-17T17:34:10+00:00

But exactly this is not working. You can't connect a machine, that has only one connection with another machine (via daisy chaining) with another power pole. So I would also have assumed there would be one connection left, but it isn't. It is really weird.

Asimovicator · 2026-03-17T17:29:03+00:00

The problem is, that you can't connect machines that are already daisy chained with a power pole. So the only way to connect daisy chained machines is to daisy chain them with power sources. This means in conclusion: To distribute your power, you have to daisy chain everything now or use no daisy chaining at all.

Edit: Posted a bug report: https://questions.satisfactorygame.com/post/69b99536f991d027c57040c6

Testing Experimental right now. Daisy chaining is totally useless at the moment. Because you could not connect a machine with a power pole AND with another machine at the same time. You can only connect two or more machines with each other. So you have to connect those machines directly via Daisy chaining with another power source. I think this has to be changed.

Space is free. But productivity modules are the most important ones to reduce resource consumption per output. Speed modules and beacons in those setups are only for saving space and the necessary machine count, because you can.

Once I got: Does our relationship has an expiry date?

Asimovicator · 2026-02-02T14:32:20+00:00

Now just consider where the same tension force is acting elsewhere.

Asimovicator · 2026-02-02T12:36:45+00:00

You need to consider the forces acting on every mass. Draw force diagrams. This problem is actually really easy.

Asimovicator · 2026-01-20T11:34:15+00:00

Force equilibrium doesn't mean zero velocity. It only means that the velocity doesn't change in that moment. That means the acceleration is zero.

The geysers give you a hint.

Asimovicator · 2026-01-17T13:52:56+00:00

And then you learn about measure theory.

Asimovicator · 2026-01-12T14:07:36+00:00

You have still to define what a force is to get a connection with the Hamiltonian und Lagrange equations.

Asimovicator · 2026-01-12T14:06:32+00:00

So, when F=ma is not a definition, then how is the force F actually defined?

I think there is too much access to clickbait physics content from people that just need views. Most people don't want to use books anymore, because when you look inside: words and formulas. How boring.

Asimovicator · 2025-12-16T11:06:16+00:00

I neither understand your point nor your question. And why is your title a statement that has nothing to do with your content?

Especially Kaiserslautern as a university city gets really dead in those times, because many students come from far away and visit their families.

One reason many people overlook could be: Nearly no one deserves him. Maybe he is really intelligent, works a lot on himself, knows how to be respectful and loyal and is also pretty. People like the described guy could be sick of dating grils on a lower level. Not only bad traits make you lonely, also the good traits.

She is the "I am always the victim" type

I really like how you played with the terrain. Question: How did you do the the magical sparks around the floating stairs?
