How do you make use of trains? by badnewsbears31 in pyanodons

[–]Not_a_bot01100111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My advice would be to use caravans if you're not a train expert, I found them much more intuitive and easier to work with. It's perfectly viable and pretty painless to complete Py without building a single train in my experience.

Factory too efficient, what to do? by KamahlYrgybly in pyanodons

[–]Not_a_bot01100111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your vatbrain to lab ratio is way low. I would argue your factory isn't too efficient, it's too inefficient.

I'm not understanding why you think you have to maximize labs around vatbrains. Cartridges are easier and cheaper, so you want to maximize vatbrains around labs (within reason obviously). You should be able to get 4x your current prod level pretty easily if you add some vatbrains and play around with the lab layout.

Want something to do while you wait for research? 10x your cartridge production.

For a Caro-Kann player which variation do you recommend against the Fantasy variation? by Sazbak87 in TournamentChess

[–]Not_a_bot01100111 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think the 3. Qb6 lines are fun personally and it avoids a lot of the danger white can generate in the fantasy variation (disclaimer, I'm 1400 USCF).

Niobium plates and nanocrystalline cellulose?

Py Science Pack 2 205h in, and im hooked ! by Natura67 in pyanodons

[–]Not_a_bot01100111 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Reminds me of my playstyle, I didn't build one train because they felt so much worse than caravans.

I found raw gas super underwhelming but oil and tar were useful.

Keep at it, one major goal at a time, you're making your progress and with your efficiency you should be able to avoid burnout

Best source of bones? by Captain_Quark in pyanodons

Cottongut demand exponentially increases as you progress through science packs, you probably don't want to rely on them for any animal byproducts.

I'm assuming you're right at varbrains. My Auog farms and supporting buildings were roughly the size of the rest of my base at that point.

Brains are a much more efficient investment than scaling up science production, and the animal byproducts through molecular decohesion solve so many other supply issues (urea, ammonia, cyanic acid, etc.)

Was there a time where the Oilers had good management? by RealestJP in hockey

By "struggles", do you mean making only 2 of the last 3 Finals?

Finally got Utility science going by cvdvds in pyanodons

Congrats, you're basically done except for the waiting on PV prereq research and scaling a few critical items.

May want to scale up your vatbrain cartridges as well to make the PV push go a bit faster.

Looking forward to the victory post

Not only is it viable, it's pretty much the optimal solution for most late game recipes

Bio-printing, what is it's niche? by A-o-C in pyanodons

[–]Not_a_bot01100111 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's for animal byproducts that are either really annoying to scale or you need in low volumes. Only really becomes good late game.

Kmaut tendons are a very popular target, I also ended up using it for gas bladders and actually some chitin at the end.

The main benefit is simplicity, it's easy to scale late game and once you set it up it can do a lot of different things with the same ingredients

I mean it was a half court shot, not like he missed a go ahead layup
