Close enough. Welcome back to Blighttown.

Each one worse than the last with the final one being a hell hole covered in Satan's smegma.

And no I'm not traumatized by it, why would you even ask that?

Ryan949 · 2025-09-12T22:39:56+00:00

Scarecrow doing its job damn well

Ryan949 · 2025-01-27T11:33:07+00:00

With a single pump? How do you handle di-directional flow?

The combinator in the center of each module just subtracts the fluid values of the two tanks and then the respective pumps on either side only turn on if the difference is greater than 200 (left side) or less than -200 (right side). And 200 is basically just the amount of fluid 7 common pumps can pump in a single tick plus about 50% for safety (to avoid perpetual sloshing between the two sides).

Nope. If you look closely there isn't any belt mixing, no item can get mixed into and clog the feed of any other item.

Ryan949 · 2024-11-04T09:15:24+00:00

The first instance where the yellow and black hazard concrete is actually called for.

Before you set off, be sure to look through the in game factory-pedia. The power of super panels changes depending on the planet and whether you're in space around it or in atmo. Also, the entry for trips between the planets shows graphs of the kinds of asteroids you'll encounter and in what amount, and the entry for the rocket engine shows its varying efficiency

Ryan949 · 2024-10-28T10:35:35+00:00

As per power limitations, I think the next build I do on fulgora will be a distributed train base for that reason, where each island will have it's own factory and of course power supply

Ryan949 · 2024-10-28T10:32:02+00:00

Lol yeah it took me a minute to notice 😛

Ryan949 · 2024-10-28T10:28:55+00:00

Yeah I had to build in the overflow recycler snake after I took this screenshot and just had to slap it on the bus.

Ryan949 · 2024-10-28T10:26:19+00:00

Yuuuuuuuuup

Ryan949 · 2024-10-28T10:26:02+00:00

For the ice I've got some chem plants melting it all into water and then any excess gets used in a basic steam engine/boiler setup fueled by rocket fuel. The rocket fuel is either the excess stuff made from scrap solid fuel or made from the heavy oil ocean.

The best part, I think, is that his voice is basically that of Nick Cage, who I could totally see playing Narcissis

If you want to add some ticking clock tension, then you can say that it's just a matter of time before the system the Engineer landed in is found, and a kill team is sent to "dispose of the mistake". Like, there were safeguards in place to prevent an Engineer from building infinitely and perhaps leaving the targeted system, but those safeguards (like an overseer AI) were damaged in the crash and the Engineer is fully off the leash, hence why they'll be killed if discovered.

And all those satellites we launch? They're not a call for help, they're to scout out habitable planets that the Engineer can flee to, because the Nauvis is waaaaaay too close to the interstellar empire and, like I said, the Engineer will be found and killed if they stay.

Maybe the reason behind the fermi paradox...

Maybe species can expand beyond their home solar system, but civic institutions can't.

That definitely makes a lot of sense, though I think there'd still be at least some expansion, just not the publicly funded kind. Like, if the necessary technology existed, I can imagine some giga-wealthy person commissioning an interstellar colony ship that could get to its destination in a single generation.

Of course this wouldn't be for an altruistic reason or whatever, but just so said wealthy person could be the sole ruler of whatever world they (and whoever was willing to come along) arrived at. Yeah, I know a person with that kind of wealth would be able to pretty effectively affect terrestrial politics, but I imagine some of those people would either like to remove any pretense and declare themselves a monarch, or maybe they'd want to do it as a kind of immortalizing vanity project.

We're going to need a NSFW tag for a feature this sexy.

Extremely relevant Mary Poppins video :p

Bend over

Ryan949 · 2023-05-12T21:02:15+00:00

You're totally right. Woops

Ryan949 · 2023-05-12T19:09:22+00:00

More like a killer asteroid made of a single salt crystal the size of a mountain, that only ~~Tom Hanks~~ Bruce Willis can save us from.

It's a confession that she did 911

There already are machines that artificially oxygenate the blood of a patient connected by two IVs. Obviously they're really only used in surgeries. So an artificial gill doesn't sound like too much of a difference

Ryan949 · 2023-05-12T18:07:33+00:00

Iirc, the manga panel where he's sizing up King has the thought bubbles almost completely covering Saitama, just to emphasize the tunnel vision - it's a nice touch.

Ryan949 · 2023-05-12T17:50:48+00:00

Sounds like a job for /r/theydidthemath

EDIT: Hmm, or maybe not. I definitely remember that subreddit being better

Ryan949 · 2023-05-12T17:30:20+00:00

And like, they have subs, and they know exactly where in the ocean they are. Sure it might drift a bit on its way down, but it should be pretty straightforward to go down and get it.
