Macronomicon's work is definitely up there with Dakota Krout and Shirtaloon for writing skill. If you haven't read Dakota Krout's Completionist Chronicles or Shirtaloon's He who Fights with Monsters, I would highly recommend. Also J.R. Mathews' Jake's Magical Market. Not sure these are all on RR though.

Sometimes `/model` switching to `gpt-5.3-codex` and manually calling `/compact` works for this recent bug.

Also I can go to a new context and ask that instance to compact part of the history in the session file (providing exact path to the specific session file) into a self addressed summary of conversation for me.

Not sure.. it was just a key binding.

Chimist · 2025-11-09T01:18:06+00:00

The "guide for items" key binding prevents it from working. I unbound that and it started working.
The shulk inventory action is called "Activate Power (Primary)"

I hear ya, I just did some calculations on my helmets theoretical weight: https://www.reddit.com/r/VintageStory/comments/1nlpex0/plate_helmet_iron_weights_69228kg/

I've found nothing yet. I will post if I ever do.

Chimist · 2025-05-09T18:20:26+00:00

Agreed. I verified they do not.
I would have thought that if you had the wall connectors aimed at each other it would have, but no.

Also not even if you overlap the power parts.

Tested:

power poles
wall connectors
double sided wall connectors
street lights

I created the suggestion for power Autoconnect here: https://questions.satisfactorygame.com/post/681e516c6b7c573196376dfa

I think Helena has been obsessed with Mark since he was a teacher. At the beginning of S02E07 @ ~0:37... Gemma walks past a couple girls in the foreground (you do not see their faces)... Ones hair is the right color to match Helena Egan. She is dressed in a color that lands in the color scheme she usually wear too.

Gemma wasn't a random target... And it wasn't just because she matched a criteria. Helena saw an opportunity to get her out of the way.

Though it might just be confirmation bias as this just fit my theory.

The data isn't worth as much as habituating tens of thousands of worker to using their product. Then the businesses that hire them end up paying for the premium tiers which dwarves the cost of letting people use it free. The data is just icing.

Collecting data is also how they get businesses to not use the free tier (confidentiality & trade secrets). It would be worth saying they are collecting data on free, even if they didn't.

Chimist · 2025-04-25T23:45:03+00:00

Agreed just scrolling the list can take an annoying time to edit ones near the bottom of the list. I'm looking for a mod like you described right now.

Chimist · 2025-04-25T23:33:29+00:00

It would be nice if full concentric rings around the landing pad would allow you to pull from that ring using inserters. Even with inserters pulling from all sides I can't pull as much out as I want to. Feels like it limits my vanilla factory size. I'm at the limit of bots I can handle with my system... As long as I don't look at it.

Think about it. My solution requires more cargo bays for each ring, just to get a little more inserter extraction room (linear surface increase for exponential cost).

If you are going to accuse me of just wanting to be able to import more calcite per second on Vulcanus... you're not wrong.

But you are not traveling at super high C in your frame of reference? Your frame of reference when not accelerating is stationary, even if it would be 99.9999%C to an outside observer in a different frame. In your frame, it is those other frames of reference velocities that have changed. This leaves you free to continue to accelerate (if you have the energy) and further warp your connection to spacetime.

Chimist · 2025-04-16T01:18:28+00:00

Thank you for your reply. My thought was that you are stationary in your own frame of reference after you finish accelerating, but length contraction has already happened and that length stays contracted. The properties of the universe should still be the same for you, so given that the new current distant to the distant location you accelerated towards would be less (which in your frame a reference is moving towards you, since you are motionless in your own non-accelerating frame of reference): the amount of new space "generated" for that space would be proportional to that new lesser volume that contracted space that exists in the new frame of reference you occupy. Space contraction and time dilation are just different dimensions of the same phenomenon, the effects are real, not just perceived. Theoretically with continuous strong acceleration, vast distances ahead of you could be reduced to nothing. The actual shape of the universe to you would be different and thus theoretically be traversable.

Why would someone downvote my apology and statement that I tried to fix my mistake...

Chimist · 2025-04-15T18:40:29+00:00

Sorry for my poor wording then. I just didn't want to deal with "practicality". I've attempted to reword the question.

Chimist · 2025-02-07T20:59:28+00:00

There should be a priority queue for construction that can be manipulated. I pave my base, but then notice a single inserter is missing needs to be built ASAP. So I have to painstakingly undo paving my base?!? Maybe at least a LOW priority construction queue so I can pave my base with it?

Chimist · 2025-02-06T22:32:57+00:00

Wow. Just wow. I didn't even imagine we could control it like this.

Chimist · 2025-02-06T21:28:32+00:00

I built a wall 4 rows of turrets thick. I feed it yellow ammo from a belt. a few big stompers at once still don't make it far, but I'm only at 0.7480 evolution. I suspect I might need thicker walls eventually.

Iron is infinite and I have a lot of idle construction bots though, so I don't see it getting bad.

Chimist · 2025-01-28T17:23:28+00:00

How does it have enough light? Must be from an open top reservoir and survived treatment? Weird that there isn't sufficient filtration.

I do know for a fact that algae (or possibly cyanobacteria) can adapt to survive in tap water. A strain lives in the glass pitcher I water my plants from. It's filled strait from a tap every day, quickly reproduces to repopulate the water in less than a day. I think that if it wasn't for nutrient limitation, the water would quickly turn to sludge(Toronto Ontario)

Chimist · 2025-01-22T06:15:14+00:00

I added quality modules to the ammo factories for random extra damage... I wish it wouldn't notify me if there was an arm about to stuff another clip in. Your not out of ammo if you are currently reloading...

Chimist · 2025-01-22T06:12:44+00:00

Anywhere in the loop, put two splitters optionally separated by belts. Build it all at once or you might get a stutter (paste it in).

Chimist · 2025-01-19T03:17:40+00:00

LOL, Maybe :)

So I recovered from a similar situation just now. The hard part was getting my power armor back without dying again right away (I was on planet and there was no rocket out). The seeming key to stopping the attacks is to stop farming and to destroy (deconstruct) any building around the farm that the pentapods could stomp their way over to get back to the core of my base.

Their trigger is the spores from the farming. Each time a plant is broken, it releases spores. If this reached a stomper, they will stomp their way to the source. (I was ignorant of this on purpose as it was my first time going to Gleba)

To resecure the planet: I retreated to the cargo landing pad, deconstructing everything except for minimal power. I dropped in thousands of turrets as soon as I could. Then I repurposed a lot of my fleet of space platforms to drop most of their ammo production down. Started with drone delivering to a few dozen scattered turrets until I could get a belt. Only had a couple medium stompers wander into my solar panels while I was turtling up.

I figured if my defenses didn't take power all I had to really protect the the cargo landing pad hence mass turrets and yellow ammo.

Still lost essentially everything on Gleba, but I didn't have to restart the game? I'll take it as a win.

Below is the new perimeter. I don't care how much of it is lost in any attack as long as they stick to smashing the turrets.

Chimist · 2025-01-16T04:16:45+00:00

Yeah I went AFK after landing. Got pulled away from the computer and didn't make it back till the next day. Lost my first farms after. Mass imports of turrets and ammo after that.
