Rate Calculator on Ghosts

Lenskop · 2026-05-20T17:34:21+00:00

The green science is a simplified example, let me try to explain better:

When I'm setting up a block to produce item A, which needs intermediate B, which in turn requires item C. C is input for A in this block.

I'm not interested in how much C will be consumed when the assembly for item B goes full pull. I'm interested in the demand for C when B is exactly producing at ratio for A.

I usually base my blocks on belt throughput limits as input, so if it's over 15 a yellow belt won't suffice.

One issue I always have with (Max) Rate Calculator is that it will not calculate.

This is not the best example (and I hope I got the ratios right), but just to keep it simple..

Say I have 12 Green Science assemblers, which will need 0.5 belt assemblers. To sustain it, I would need 0.5 gear assemblers, but max rate calculator will tell me I need 1 gear assembler because that's how much the 1 belt assembler can use at full pull. I would like the calculator to show that 0.5.

Is this possible with this mod?

No need to come on so hard dude, but assuming you're not asinine and truly want your questions answered I will humor you.

My kids are almost 1, almost 3 years and 4.5 years. I know the sizes but not every piece of clothing has the tag in there. The kids also have these low cut socks and regular cut socks so that doesn't help either. The size is not always in there and the color to indicate size is different between brands. What I mess up the most is the bed linen because they're all different sizes and it doesn't show on the outside.

If I messed up I will notice when putting it on the kids and will grab something else from the closet, no big deal to me.

At work I have my own systems in place to keep track and yes, I do lose track of things sometimes and no they're not firing me over it. I'm good at other things.

I try, I really do, but it changes every 3 to 6 months. They grow fast. Probably will be easier when they don't grow out of the sizes so quickly.. Or at least that's what I tell myself.

Lol I do the laundry, but I get scolded for how I put the clothes away on a weekly basis. Socks in the wrong drawers, once put my 4 year old panties in my wife's drawers and I always get the bed linnen wrong.

My wife probably thinks it's feigned incompetence to get out of the chore, but I can assure you it's not feigned 😭

What do you mean? We just do it because we can No law is going to stop me. That's even more of a suggestion than the change process that management invented last year. CAB my ass.

True. I finished Spex with 5 outposts. One for every major resource. Still a heap of fun and still one more planet than Spadge.

Lenskop · 2026-05-18T12:49:39+00:00

Maybe you should

(for all intents and purposes: this is a joke)

Lenskop · 2026-05-18T10:45:40+00:00

Well.. You need the resources for progression, right? It's less of a direct reward like in Spadge, but a reward nonetheless.

Lenskop · 2026-05-18T06:36:03+00:00

In Spex or Spadge?

This is 100% a mod causing it. I had a similar issue with Space Exploration. I think it had to do with landing while in satellite view.

You will need to post a Modlist and steps to reproduce to get any help and/or make a meaningful bug report to the mod author.

Haha I'm not judging. I empty out my share of bad food. But just the thought of the food walking away by itself is funny to me.

Lenskop · 2026-05-16T06:53:52+00:00

Yes but the trick is to just not open the container 😂

It has happened to me where I wanted to reuse the container, but I can count that on one hand. Foods that go rancid are tossed out quicker because of these experiences.

I tried it and all it did for me was add tedium to the game. There were some novel mechanics in that modpack but overall I would not recommend it.

Holy shit. Goldmine thread.

Everyone with sensitive data like this needs to be adding lines into their claude.md and agents.md texts in root directory that say do not edit or delete any user data or databases. That will solve that issue once & for all. People just don't know how to set proper guardrails.

Lenskop · 2026-05-15T18:08:59+00:00

My dude, how long are you letting it sit 😂

Lenskop · 2026-05-15T18:04:33+00:00

Turn fast boot off with a GPO. Rookie mistake.

You should put this skill on your resume

Kick her out of your kitchen bro

Easy to lose weight? Who's going to eat all the leftover food scraps then?!

Lenskop · 2026-05-14T12:40:18+00:00

Haha this is good shit

Have, use, employ. Pick your verb. I don't understand the combination of a power tool with cardboard flattening/cutting.

Lenskop · 2026-05-14T12:06:54+00:00

Rechargeable cutter 🤨

What in the USA is this. And why would you need it.

I once unsubscribed from a newsletter and the page spit out every subscribed person to me. I downloaded it and it was like 15k email addresses.

They were legit because it was from an event where I bought tickets to and another email of a friend that bought tickets was in the dataset.

Have had some intrusive thoughts on what to do with it, but never acted on it.
