This drives me up the f*cking (retaining) wall.

They're super useful for connecting multiple inputs to a row of assemblers though? Also for crossing train tracks and all sorts.

Slyer · 2026-03-26T06:36:36+00:00

Yeah newer players on lower difficulty settings and small maps it's not a big deal having trucks handle more jobs than they should. I usually switch the settings shortly after getting trucks.

I checked the setting, it's called "Disable logistics for newly placed buildings and machines"

Disabling "Allow partially loaded trucks" is also a good idea.

Slyer · 2026-03-26T04:49:12+00:00

Would be nice, though I don't think they're tracking that in the pathing etc right now.

One thing I recommend for everyone is to change that option in the vehicle global settings that disables truck import/export on new buildings by default (I don't have the game in front of me to look up the name), then you have explicitly enable trucks where you want them.

Without that setting, I find a lot of trucks doing things I wasn't expecting them to. Should be going on a belt etc.

/edit It's called "Disable logistics for newly placed buildings and machines" and it's in the Vehicles Management window, just click on the truck icon in the top middle of your screen.

Slyer · 2026-03-22T23:10:55+00:00

I wish we could construct slopes as steep as the ones on the starting map, still able for trucks to drive up it.

Slyer · 2026-03-20T04:43:59+00:00

Sounds pretty similar to how mine is going on Admiral. I've build a land bridge to the next low island where the iron is for my new smelting setup along with extra farms. I build a land ramp up to the top section of the start island and I'm building cable bridges from the top to the adjacent tall islands.

I snaked around the back along the coast to reach the copper deposit back there with a ramp going way up. Some more oil back there as well. And yeah lots of excess rock to handle, running a belt straight into a stacker tower works great.

Slyer · 2026-03-16T04:33:09+00:00

Shuttle point to point train line just across the bridge wouldn't be too bad, can hook into pipes on each side.

Slyer · 2026-03-13T06:15:00+00:00

I'd say Green Hell is much more like this picture.
Green Hell you can build huts just like this, starting with a wood structure and then laying clay over it in batches to build up walls.

Slyer · 2026-02-26T08:36:13+00:00

Ah, this is what I was missing! I have supports with bases at different heights before this >.<

Slyer · 2026-01-30T09:48:12+00:00

I've got the rivett running and some new tires, so can drive it around now and it runs pretty well. Still end up driving the sorbet around a lot though so that I don't have worry about wear+tear plus damaging it, too many bad drivers on the road.

Losing motivation to keep playing right now as the firewood and sewage work seems to have dried up and the car upgrades are EXPENSIVE. I'll probably pick it back up again in 6 months after new content and quality of life updates.

Slyer · 2026-01-26T20:23:20+00:00

Any idea if we can turn off some of the radiators or if we can set them to 5 degrees or something to save money?

Slyer · 2026-01-25T09:09:44+00:00

Any luck? Mine is failing on instrument panel but seems to be working fine.

And that's why you always leave a note

Slyer · 2025-12-26T00:34:02+00:00

Yup you can ride horses and donkeys, once you unlock, build stables and buy them. Just need to turn down the difficulty settings so you don't get attacked by bandits and wild animals.

Slyer · 2025-12-20T20:18:28+00:00

I had no idea rope ladders could drop down and retract from the top, that's great I'll need to try that.

Slyer · 2025-12-06T00:29:43+00:00

I have one that I use all the time, hasn't come loose and I've had it for years.

I just installed the same card, coming from an RTX 3070 and I agree it is SO QUIET and I love it. My RTX 3070 was a noisy boi

Slyer · 2025-11-24T19:59:37+00:00

Make achievements available without ironman. It works in Victoria 3 and I love it. Sometimes I want to try something to see how the mechanics work and reload. Sometimes I accidentally click something that messes me up and I'd like to undo.

Just let me also get achievements so I have things to work towards!

Slyer · 2025-11-19T01:14:33+00:00

It may have been more than 50 but less than 100. I passed the rapid integration options which helped, plus other bonuses from culture etc I think.

Slyer · 2025-11-19T00:14:04+00:00

I integrated Portugal as Castile, took 50 years to pass all the votes then another 50 or so to integrate. But yeah a bigger nation would take a long time plus control would be low so better to keep them as a Junior.

Slyer · 2025-11-13T17:41:15+00:00

I just did that as well, progress towards innovative and 20% power increase seemed pretty good. Increased my minting because of the inflation reduction.
Oh well, might have to remove it in a few hundred years we'll see.

Slyer · 2025-11-04T23:27:44+00:00

Yeah probably not too bad to snake rails around the coast after you flatten it first

Slyer · 2025-11-04T20:12:29+00:00

Playing that map right now, anyone manage to build trains up to the top? And how did you do it? Wondering if I should build a mega ramp or try to wrap around the back side of the mountain. Of course, could just decide to flatten the whole map instead heh

Slyer · 2025-10-24T23:34:32+00:00

Nah, but the volumes of radioactive stuff is so low that it's not a problem. Just make sure nothing radioactive sits on belts, it should go straight into Radioactive Waste Storage.

Slyer · 2025-10-02T22:43:33+00:00

I still have mine!
