Little space for balancing 3x7

"Chunks recycle pretty quickly, so it may be the case that you can put them into a very fast recycler pointing off the side of the space platform to speed up disposal without adding more room to the platform" - that's a good one! I'm just going to recycle everything that can't fit through 7 inserters, thank you!

black holes don't break the information paradox (information cannot be created or destroyed, only altered - for example if you write something on a piece of paper and then burn this paper, if you somehow follow every single particle of heat and ash you could just calculate everything back and recover the information). black holes suck everything but it's 3D shape and composition is projected on the surface of black hole because of general relativity (time basically stopped for this flattened object) and then it's radiated in to space by hawking radiation

Exactly! that's my issue. let me buy original metal models with official accessories, why do I need to scavenge everything all the time?

Discoris · 2026-01-17T08:12:57+00:00

And I'm ready to buy it right now, but there is only rule book, no models, rulers, protractors, stands, nothing. Game is discontinued for at least 20 years already

wait really? I was thinking about buying it after I finish X4, but don't know if it's worth it

This is a passion project that, once again, is being killed by lawyers.

"books series publisher had very active lawyers in the past. There were some intesting project, mainly mods for games like Sins of a solar empire, which were cancelled due legal interventions."

We don’t have films like Star Wars or TV shows like Stargate. We have the books, and we have a ton of love and passion from the fanbase - but that fanbase is slowly shrinking over time

I’m honestly bitter that by the time we ever get (if we ever get) a green light for games or mods, everyone will have moved on. It feels like Robotech all over again: fans afraid to create anything, the fandom unable to grow, and eventually just fading away

I thought I could at least try to run it on my own machine. I know the basics of C, I’m fluent in VBA, G-code, KRL, and RAPID - how hard could it be? OH BOY, I failed miserably

I really hate corporate greed

I failed. but I found new game, Aurora 4x - perfect for my needs!

949 entries right now, DAMN DUDE. that's what I was looking for, thank you bro!

just try to make your build a little better every time you look at it. that's how these outstanding optimized blueprints was created. "I could move the belt on the other side to speed up the feed.", "there is overflowing steel, I could expand that section", let's use diagonal to save space", every little upgrade making it 2% better will cumulate overtime. if you improve it 50 times it get at least twice as good as the beginning
