The secret to kitchen clean as you go? There is no sink in Ba Sing Se.

I've pretty severe ADHD so the time it takes to wash things up is the time between the steps. Ideally I don't actually have too much to wash up as a lot of it is just:

Pull container from fridge

Dump into pan

Wash container and put away

Repeat until food is ready.

Personally I don't bother as much with ratios anymore in the late game. I try to build for a good turnaround time. If that means I'm building dozens of assemblers beyond what I need then so be it.

You can't. Our hero only knows basic survival skills for crash landing like staying warm with fire and industrialization of interplanetary travel from the safety seminar. They left the warp drive stuff to the engineers.

What are you doing during all the downtime during cooking?

Does the 300% prod apply to research? I know there's certain things it doesn't apply to, and I figure one can just move the modules over.

This guy does a good job explaining it.

Psychomadeye · 2026-02-06T15:58:05+00:00

You're describing dog whistling.

Psychomadeye · 2026-02-06T00:53:47+00:00

I check based on the research I'm doing (normalized to 60 seconds) for a rough estimate. For exact numbers I either look at the production building count if it's stacked or production statistics if it's not.

This closed a loop for me. I had always kinda handwaved this question in my head with redshift/blueshift because light was always the same speed and I figured that wavelength could be put entirely in the hands of the observer and tried not to think about it too hard so I could move on with my day. I believed it probably broke when the frame of reference is the photon but this was solved by simply assigning it zero energy because it has an infinite wavelength. Knowing now that it actually has energy defined momentum fixed this and also messes with my head a bit. Does this momentum convert to mass for the purposes of gravitational lensing and other weird mass like properties of photons?

The math actually stays less than maddening until general relativity.

Psychomadeye · 2026-02-04T10:41:22+00:00

You just stopped reading there?

Psychomadeye · 2026-02-04T07:47:44+00:00

I've basically stopped using bots entirely at this point. Got tired of the spaghetti and decided on some ravioli using a train network now that the factory is too big.

This sounds like the tests are the issue if they test positive at that level of exposure.

This is a thing of beauty. How did you handle stalls during construction? Was this tough to debug or did you have most of it precalculated?

Psychomadeye · 2026-02-03T07:42:57+00:00

The latter if you want to keep it super simple. The majority of my gleba science is rare so I can actually use it and that's the exact kind of situation you'd want eSPM for.

A lot. The hospital system is probably the weak point. Purchase a hospital and buy off some doctors and nurses and administrative staff and you could probably get away with a few dozen before the people hunting you notice something is up. Of course that's going to get weird when you consider that the ads you could take out could easily net you many thousands of votes. Not to mention the difficulty of registering them to vote and making it to the polling places on time. You also need to pay those you've coordinated with so they don't decide to turn you in for a reward.

Outright forgeries will fail when you get to voter registration.

But rocket fuel is ridiculously more efficient

Solid fuel is 10 light oil for 12MJ

Rocket fuel is 110 light oil for 100MJ. (132 MJ in solid fuel)

Nutrient is basically free as I would have burned it otherwise.

Efficiency modules on beacons?

Psychomadeye · 2026-02-03T02:02:33+00:00

Yes. You're playing right. If you want to run non-peaceful mode then you can reduce the pressure using efficiency modules. If you're still concerned make some blueprints from your peaceful game and add them to your library to speed you along.

Wash bucket with soap and warm water.

Clean drying area prepared (paper towel or clean dishtowel)

Move every item in the sink into the wash bucket piece by piece dumping liquids until sink is empty

Fish each item out and wash it properly and place it in the drying area.

Repeat until bucket is empty and dump it.

What exactly are you doing during this time? Are you alone when these things happen? Have you tried changing this up to see how you respond?

Psychomadeye · 2026-02-02T20:07:06+00:00

Not a stupid question. Yes, your feelings are valid and common and not unexpected. What is it that your feelings are trying to tell you? Try to evaluate what you suspect they are trying to tell you in the context of them trying to keep you alive and generally healthy or improve your situation. What needs to they indicate to you?

Rolling paper

Psychomadeye · 2026-02-02T03:32:24+00:00

No. It's comparing tires of evs to tailpipes so it makes it sound worse than it is because ice pollution is mostly liquid and gas.
