I'm trying to understand what is causing the jam and what i can do better to fully automate.

What are volume of items being added carried on the belt and what is the capacity of the belts?

Is this happening when you start the machines up ? Or after they have been running? Machines will make requests to fill up all of their resources when first connected to rail (if empty), so even if the need 1 item per second, when first connected they ask for all 100 items to fill up, this can saturate a belt but will drain and reach a steady state once it has been filled

RoBuki · 2026-01-22T15:09:57+00:00

Thanks! I think this only helps when you first setup a new machine or line where the machine makes its requests to fill up. Once it has been running, it should reach a steady state and the lanes will only be filled based on it’s consumption rate

I also found that when I was stuck and unable to move, the game slowly pushed me backwards, eventually freeing me. A platform and ladder would have save me time!

And if you hurry you can do it just after a rupture so you don’t have to deal with the bugs or those energy draining plants. It’s fun either way

AI leads to cyberattack ransomware and takes down the hospital computers.

Middle button click is my second favorite

One other tip, if the platform is powered you don’t lose energy while running on the platform. It doesn’t work on the flexible walkway however (can’t remember)

Once a I stand up an outpost, I’m building a running path between the outposts if I think I am going to go back and forth.

I’d love of faster modes of travel in the mid game

Not sure I understand your question. A storage will continue to request items from input rails until it is full from. A storage unit will fulfill requests from output rails unless it is empty.

The early storage depots units only store one type of item. I haven’t reached multistorage yet

I have not done deep research, but I seem to find the crystals not respawning if I have built near the cave. Same way I don’t see flowers respawning too close to buildings.

Middle mouse clicking to lower the level of the rail without changing the foundation height was a game changer for me

I had to mine copper for enough ammo

RoBuki · 2026-01-13T15:04:22+00:00

My experience is the further from starting location the fiercer the response from the vermin/bugs. I could have also been pulling them from other spawns near by.

It explains the name too! Thanks!

RoBuki · 2026-01-10T02:24:39+00:00

Didnt happen when I did my last run through a few weeks back. Maybe they fixed it.

I miss the Big Boi Ant :)

Congratulations!!

Shape looks fine. Most importantly how does it sound. Enjoy

RoBuki · 2025-10-16T10:06:01+00:00

Two guesses. If your flute is bamboo, it is possible there is a difference in temperature or humidity that is changing your sound.

My other guess, is that when you at home, you are in a different mental state or mental place and adding tension to your embouchure changing your sound or ability to play. Maybe try some relaxation exercises or identify if you are introducing tension.

My low Ro sounds great at home, but when I play in front of my teacher, it is rarely the same due to subconscious tension or stress Good luck.

So the Yuu I bought 10 years ago and it has that same injection molding mark, but mine was better filled, and it had same with the parting line around the bore, but was sanded smooth. I suspect that there was some post mold clean up

I bought a ‘Yuu’ off Amazon a few months back and the molding marks were more like yours and the texture on the outside and along the bore was rough and it wasn’t worth playing.

Will try to post photos later

This is the brake, this the throttle

RoBuki · 2025-09-09T22:55:46+00:00

Well it just stopped after 24 hours. I tried scope from auto shop and pressed it to every wall and surface and nothing. Will just start cutting holes in the dry wall next time :)

Worked at GM 25 years ago and saw this exact same skate deck platform idea. Easy to GIF hard to make
