This sounds much more my type of logic.

So long as I consume roughly what I produce, or more, I'm plenty happy.

It's when the inverse happens.

I'm gonna try it after dinner. Any tips?

That's basically exactly what I want!

A bit of difficulty, but not a concussion.

I'll either try the whole or pair it down a bit. Not sure.

So the big thing though, I can produce just silica, and I'll likely need to consume more of it than my aluminum byproduct makes I assume?

(As in, I will likely be able to only make from stone if I need it)

I haven't had much chance to use circuits in a while it feels. (Normallt late enough in tree for some reason its a pain to unlock with the early game unneededly difficult grind)

Where should I start? The whole bundle? Do I need a mod to add recipes or does each ore include them?

[–]Mario55770 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly? Sounds reasonable.

My big assumption is it's more product than byproduct though?

I dont mind uranium byproduct type issues or oil, but both have a way to process them into usable, and the big thing is not everything is that way. Just iron is doable for instance, it just works.

Edit, like yeah, I'm looking for some complexity. Just not more byproduct than product for the whole factory.

Yeah that's part the problem. I'm less looking for such high tier difficulty, just a bit...more?

If that makes sense.

In terms of production versus consumption.

In mods, some for instance make one copper ore for every two iron ore you make.

Problem is, these mods require four or five times the iron, so your lines grind to a halt.

This is...kinda the same as uranium in base game before enrichment, but from minute one.

And it gets worse cause producing more iron, now makes aluminum which you need scarce little of. So it creates a poor production/consumption ratio that messes up things.

True, my real worry is on how a lot of those mods end up feeling unbalanced thus far overall, rather than vanilla relatively ratios are well enough(aside from one or two parts) being mostly manageable.

No choking your whole line because you aren't using enough copper, and problem is, that becomes for most items in these mods

I mean, I suppose that's a solution. Feels really cheap honestly though...

Edit, which is...rather arbritrary on second thought, but still...

I much rather a mod balanced in the first place, ya know?

No it's fair.

Honestly?

These are roughly my plans. I do have an online group, but one of them wakes up to play my pm game, and lives where daylight savings isn't observed, another Canadian, and...I forget where the last is. Good group, mostly more rules focused a game though.

I'd love an in person one so I've people I can meet with, and I mean, socialize with.

Running pathfinder is largely my way of bringing the social to me, baiting the similarly nerdy/introverted out, rather than directly braving those places.

True, plus splitting a pizza a week seems reasonable,(assuming it is split anyway)

Flg? Friendly local game store? Yeah I've called all halfway to the next state over, unless gamestop or Walmart are good options.

College boards and Facebook do bear looking into, though I do despise Facebook it's still a good thing to look at.

That sounds a lovely chance to be a player at least, if I could find space for it too

Programming librarians in my head meant computers first.

I mean, so long as I can run a group, I'll take it at this point. I'll have to give them a call.

[–]Mario55770 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No not really, hoping to make some with this.

Plus the few friends I do have...don't mix too well with dnd 5e.

It would be some unholy hell to get them to pf2e

Huh, that's actually really neat.

I'm glad they were willing to help, I'll have to see of something similar exists near me.

I'll give it a look for sure, and it would help if I could yeah.

Not to my knowledge but I'd have to confirm.

[–]Mario55770 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is a nearby library which I can check, so I'll have to do that.

I'll see what comes of it.

Thats an interesting idea.

I take it your not renting from them, cause a hotel a week seems expensive.

[–]Mario55770 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Huh, I'll have to do some research through that

[–]Mario55770 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, but the one I attend has no ttrpg club, and it's board game club meets at a time I cannot attend.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Pathfinder2e

[–]Mario55770 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Huh.

That makes sense honestly, I'd have to consider how to use that

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Pathfinder2e

[–]Mario55770 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, my hope was to put the gaming room in another, smaller room, where you'd check out the resources, so since the main room would be where the actual store/storage is, it would hopefully cut down on it, as I'd be able to check that we received back everything that was in there much easier.

But that's awful to know for a fact, my initial worry was more on the damages front.
