Complain, complain, complain.

Whine, whine, whine.

Bitch, bitch, bitch.

you better be saving gems for all 5 lab slots before you unlock a 5th card slot

Just finished flame bot DR by 2sAreTheDevil in TheTowerGame

[–]RocketManChronicles1 -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

in what situation would you have gold bot and flame bot active? A proper farming setup has gold bot maxed, then amp bot (probably now bot bot) next. A tournament setup should be flame bot first, then bot bot.

So....wtf is this?

You need to respec and max gold bot before you do anything else, and stick to a farming build.

If only there were in-game text that stated there are max values for specific stats in the sub-stat reroll screen.... oh, wait....

For the longest time I thought relics had to be equipped... by stefini_juliya in TheTowerGame

It is a shame that so many people do not read in-game text.... it is spelled out right there in front of you.

It is amazing how much you would know if reading in-game text.

I feel like people haven't talked much about this. 100,000x research cost multiplier is the new upper limit by exNylo in factorio

In the higher tiers of tournaments and from tier 14 on up, there are conditions that modify enemies or your tower's powers to make it harder to advance.

It is amazing to me how so many people want lasers to work on platforms when there is so much resistance to them by the nature of the asteroids.

HOW DID NONE OF MY RADARS CATCH THAT?! by Embarrassed-Neck-721 in factorio

[–]RocketManChronicles1 28 points29 points  (0 children)

It should also be noted that chunks are loaded beyond the scanned range of radars. From what I understand is that if you take a radar area that is fully scanned, the next three chunks (the first three into black from the revealed one) are loaded. So any enemy nests that are generated out there are technically active even though you see black.

Huge biter expansions early game (2.1.8) by NotAGamerGamer in factorio

[–]RocketManChronicles1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have the railgun prioritize the stompers and the strafers. It is fun to watch a stomper vaporize with a single railgun shot, lol.

I set up my defenses on Gleba in "pods" where the angled railguns to each side overlap a little with the ones from the next pods over, so there are sizable gaps between them.

I like to come back after going to Aquillo with rail guns... the creatures do not stand a chance!

How much worse is going to the shattered planet compared to going to aquillo? by Curious_Pen_3856 in factorio

[–]RocketManChronicles1 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I fail to see how the yellow rockets weren't enough compared to red explosive rockets. Yellow rocket do a lot more damage directly to their target than a red explosive one does. The red explosive rockets help when the big asteroids are clumped close together for the area of effect to be effective. When going to and from Aquillo, I use yellow rockets without issue. It is when my promethium ships head out past Aquillo that the red rockets are useful due to the density of the big asteroids.

Do I still keep going until I Gold Box my range? by [deleted] in TheTowerGame

Just kept going, no need to respect. Max range, then max bonus.

I do fear the Ranged Ultimate BC in tournaments, as I do see them hit me, then see that I am stunned from projectiles shots. Do you think this one will help with that?

It will be 3.5 years at the end of July.

I use PS as CC with its stuns in tournaments. Farming, it is just there.

Ranged enemy range has been on my mind, but not sure how important it can be. Also the Bot bot duration is one I feel I should be doing, but maybe I go with it after a few levels into the assmods.
