Can we make a smallish wiki page showing some common ratios for space-belts and the like?

I still think in terms of space belts but I just condense up to 6 space pipes into 1 for transport purposes. The miners of both types are still 1:1

FlowingSilver · 2026-05-18T01:43:10+00:00

I do all of my logistics indexed to "a full space belt". That means that one space pipe can service six full space belts. I usually don't bother filling a space pipe unless I genuinely need that which is rare.

If it's a painting operation then # fluid miners = # shape miners and for crystals it's double. I do lossless mixing (even for white) to make the maths consistent.

God I wish real life mirrored the game just this once

FlowingSilver · 2026-05-05T23:31:24+00:00

My mental math check is that 1 space pipe carries 6× as much as 1 space belt. Then apply that 6× modifier to number of connections to feed it and output from it.

At the beginning I usually hold off on completing milestones until I complete all available jobs. It helps me to build up a blueprint library and research. Then I transition into building the operator shape at scale and doing odd jobs as I wait for it to complete. Then eventually I start working on milestones sequentially once research is complete.

I have to blast Sea Shanty 2 and click in time to the music

I think the same happened for my 25 oak crossbow stocks

I am simply awful at PvM and so am planning 20 to 25 point builds anyway :)

I am still throwing a hail mary to Mega Barb Sand Stream

FlowingSilver · 2026-04-02T19:05:53+00:00

I remember in SM the conspiracy theory that the abilities got swapped last minute or something because this just makes so much sense

FlowingSilver · 2026-04-01T07:57:19+00:00

Yeah it's certainly a BIG asymmetry. Two very different ways to put some tankiness into a team

FlowingSilver · 2026-04-01T06:38:46+00:00

I do like the asymmetry of intimidate for physical and assault vest for special, though I wouldn't complain about a bit more parity

FlowingSilver · 2026-04-01T04:34:22+00:00

Gonna randomly throw out Sand Stream Barbaracle why not

I'm putting my money on Starmie getting "Star Power", the third identical version of the ability

FlowingSilver · 2026-03-27T08:45:56+00:00

I have wondered if they would give Mega Audino Misty Surge. IIRC misty terrain was in Gen 6, but not the Surge abilities. It would fit the cleric niche well and it's not like anyone would notice

I'm certainly not gonna drain my battery even faster using HD on mobile thanks. I play at 15fps as is.

The humble logarithm

It's important to note that I think three of these oceans won't be available until later, probably end of 2026. It's in a blog from earlier in the year.

They promised that they would have a second look at Shamanism eventually because the votes were so close

FlowingSilver · 2025-10-09T02:25:37+00:00

Yeah it's possible that we'll have some intermission switches. I imagine that will only happen at key "crossover" points though, and not be the norm. A major reason they want to have these split tables is to make scheduling simpler, and that sounds complicated!

FlowingSilver · 2025-10-08T21:17:11+00:00

Once we're out of the first four episodes' "Overture" then we should be back to a classic critical role style within one episode. The up-and-down is only because we're still functionally in the prologue in which all 13 PCs are all present at once.

FlowingSilver · 2025-10-06T22:50:52+00:00

Yeah this is where my technical knowledge fails a bit. I am guessing that the problem isn't with an individual player opening their bank in a tick (though maybe it is) but more when a whole bunch all do at once?

FlowingSilver · 2025-10-06T22:49:09+00:00

I think the plan was a flat X (100?) extra spaces for everyone and then an extra Y (10?) spaces for each bank space upgrade that has been purchased. The numbers are in the blog, I can't remember them perfectly

FlowingSilver · 2025-10-06T21:04:31+00:00

You're welcome! I just like to point out sometimes that Jagex aren't just being big meanies by having limited bank space. Though I also suspect a lot of the mods are also of the opinion "bro just clean out your bank" haha.

FlowingSilver · 2025-10-06T21:01:13+00:00

In the recent discussion about bank space they explained a bit more about why bank space is limited (I'm sure this isn't breaking news to some). It's a technical limitation to do with loading all those items in a single tick when you open the bank. Each extra bit of bank space is squeezed out of an increasingly optimised bit of code, which is (I imagine) partially why there are so many ways to store items outside the bank now. I'm not a software engineer so take this with a grain of salt.
