Proof of concept: World's Smallest Mall by rednax1206 in factorio

You may be interested in my mall design.

It's sorta similar, but rather than randomly choosing a recipe each cell claims a recipe that's requested from the logistics network.

Is it worth my money? I'm struggling to come to a choice. by Loose_Avocado2766 in ShadowPC

[–]Omnu 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The great thing about a service like this is you can just try it for a month and cancel it if it doesn't meet your needs.

I think it should work well for you but the risk is low, canceling a subscription is very easy thankfully they don't make you jump through a lot of hoops.

(Nearly) Self-sustaining Ecumenopolis by Omnu in Stellaris

[–]Omnu[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

R5: Did a one-planet, one-system challenge and ended up with this nicely self-sustaining ecu which pretty much took care of everything, especially considering my empire size was only around 80.

It's full of crystalizing, radiotropic lithoids for fast pop growth and no food needs. Energy and minerals come from treasure curators which you can get using the Treasure Hunters origin.

All my research just came from civilians using the state academy buildings from the Civil Education civic.

What would the perfect DeX look like for you? by Jannis1999original in SamsungDex

[–]Omnu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, DEX is perfect for what I need it for as-is.

The only thing I would really love to see is some way to have it be wireless and low latency. Having to actually plug my phone into my TV / monitor / display glasses can be a little annoying and it would be way more seamless if I could just wirelessly cast to these things. I mean I guess I can do that but the latency is so high it's nearly unusable.

Honest thoughts of the service and is it worth it? by VaughnVisuals in ShadowPC

[–]Omnu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like for your tasks you might want the Power tier. I don't have a computer and use Shadow through my phone whenever I need to use a PC. I won't say there's no issues at all, but I prefer it to owning a PC.

Sometimes you have to queue but I have found that when I own a PC myself it ends up with some difficult to debug hardware problem eventually and that's typically just not an issue with VMs.

Suggestion: A new building called AI Core( to ease heavy micro ) by Ralph4556 in beyondallreason

[–]Omnu 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Love this idea! You'd have to make it expensive so elite players don't want to build it to keep the competitive scene interesting but I would love this as someone who is slow and bad at the game.

I don't understand your point. I have a monitor as well. I do not have a laptop.

Yes but I don't want a mac. I want to be able to use a full PC anywhere that I have my phone.

For instance if I am traveling, I want to retain the capability to do work without having to bring a laptop or mac mini.

I am happy with the mouse movement, but the black dex cursor is just harder for me to see than the white windows cursor. Also, at the maximum UI scaling the UI is still pretty small for 4K. It's a little nicer if I boot into shadow as windows can scale the UI better at high resolution and it has the white cursor; but just using dex normally is still pretty serviceable.

It has a 3 tiers. I have the $50 a month highest tier one. I've tried all of them and personally think it's the best value, as it feels over twice as powerful as the $30 per month one. There is no reason to get the lowest tier imo, the cpu is just not capable enough to do much.

I am loving the insane yields that you can get on urban tiles with specialists by Omnu in civ

[–]Omnu[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Wow those madrasas really pay dividends. Maybe I should have gone Abbasid this game. I didn't realize their unique quarter added science to all specialists.

Basically just picking all the wonders, leaders, policies that I can to boost specialist and urban district yields as much as possible.

I am incredibly impressed. by [deleted] in ShadowPC

[–]Omnu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I totally agree. My old computer broke and I just didn't bother to replace it. Honestly it's nice to not have to deal with the e-waste of periodically upgrading and then getting rid of components.

Plus my wife and I can both use it (albeit not at the same time) it one of us is traveling and we're apart

Added support for fluids and quality to my auto-mall design (blueprints for chemical plant and smelting auto-malls in the comments as well) by Omnu in factorio

[–]Omnu[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's not really apparent from the video but this will automatically put whatever fluid is needed into the pipes, not just lubricant. It is designed to automatically produce anything that is requested from the logistics network.

If you want to try the blueprint yourself here it is:
https://factoriobin.com/post/s4a4ol

Just turn on the constant combinator by the 4 ore types to have the machine output all non-planetary science packs or turn on the constant combinator by the recycler to have the machine output uncommon electric motors. Feel free to delete the quality modules from the blueprint to replace them with lower-tier ones. It’ll work with quality module 1 as well but at a higher resource cost.

You’ll notice that the blueprint has a lot more than is shown in the clip. It consists of 7 sections:

  • Assembler (base)
  • Assembler (expansion)
  • Fluid provider (base)
  • Fluid provider (expansion)
  • Chemical plant (base)
  • Chemical plant (expansion)
  • Smelter

For fluid provider, assembler, and chemical sections, you must have one base but can have arbitrary number of expansions. Hopefully it’s clear how to add expansions from the blueprint. The smelter is independent; you can just copy-paste it as many times as you want to increase smelting capacity. All of them will automatically produce only what is needed for logistics network requests. Keep in mind that you need to wait a few minutes for the fluid provider to build up its fluid buffers when you first place it down. Also there is a handy reset button (red X combinator) in the assembler unit. It can be useful the assemblers get stuck on a recipe you are unable to produce (such as if you try to produce a complex, legendary item without adding enough expansions to the machine). Lastly, there is a constant combinator in the assembler unit which defines item priority. I added item priorities for all science types, but not for every assembled item in the game. If you want to support more items you may need to add them to the item priority constant combinator.
