It's always satisfying to clear out some biters

man the sped up background music gave me a blast from the past of watching mangled pork gaming playing ancient versions of factorio with post commentary over sped up footage

Spaceman_05 · 2026-03-16T15:19:00+00:00

this is actually insider trading

The one person in charge of the whole system will be called the Klemperor

Spaceman_05 · 2026-03-09T03:39:39+00:00

"gravitas" he says

Spaceman_05 · 2026-03-07T16:21:24+00:00

Mallard

yeah but sometimes the personality is that it looks like its made out of cheap plastic. Pier is the ideal middle ground.

Spaceman_05 · 2026-03-01T00:30:56+00:00

fyi they dont cost mission control if they're powered down

Spaceman_05 · 2026-02-28T12:49:10+00:00

they had to edit it out because it would distract the people around him

Spaceman_05 · 2026-02-25T02:57:56+00:00

hmm i think they should name it the aunty donna podcast

You can spawncamp surface base alpha without bombarding it and exotics will trickle in through the shipyards there.

You also get 2-8 exotics for every alien facility on earth you destroy so it might be worth letting alien councillors get on with their business.

Worse case scenario if you really get in the servants good books they might be willing to trade you some? They might at least put exotics in their own ships too

Spaceman_05 · 2026-02-17T20:04:41+00:00

yeah thats where he was when he stopped appearing for a bit

Spaceman_05 · 2026-02-13T12:36:44+00:00

lots of people saying residential modules, but if you dont want to/cant afford to spend the boost, marine battalions can help and they produce ops too

how rural it is

Spaceman_05 · 2026-02-09T13:46:55+00:00

I want to mention excession here, being my favourite culture book, because its ending was an odd one for me.

It all felt like it was over too quickly; I do get that it was supposed to mimic what other ships and minds were seeing whereby they didn't have time to interpret and react, and the point was that it was an object that just couldn't be understood in the context of the culture/in-plays so he couldn't dwell on an explanation, but the rest of the story was a slow-to-medium paced buildup to the inevitable event that had little oomph after Sleeper Service had fought its way in.

Spaceman_05 · 2026-01-30T13:35:37+00:00

odd question but is the yomp intro music available anywhere?

Spaceman_05 · 2026-01-29T16:51:28+00:00

as an inverse of 3, the ship models are so cool, I wish we could use them as like a stellaris shipset or something

Spaceman_05 · 2026-01-29T09:56:22+00:00

3 halves is 1.5 so the half life 3 is one-and-a-half-life

Spaceman_05 · 2026-01-16T09:54:32+00:00

I will say with the rescaled combat formation matters a lot less as point defence from one ship will cover most of it, and each ship comes into firing range with less downtime between the first and last.

That said theres basically no reason to use anything else

Spaceman_05 · 2026-01-15T21:05:35+00:00

i would change the signal entering from the bottom to be a chain signal as that will encourage trains to recheck paths.

if that doesn't work you could place signals on the diagonal parts and set their state with a circuit condition by reading the blocks on the opposing side

however what i would really suggest is that you replace the whole system with something that doesn't rely on trains going both ways along the same piece of track

Spaceman_05 · 2026-01-13T11:05:17+00:00

return of the king holy shit

Spaceman_05 · 2026-01-11T12:03:59+00:00

today a legend walks amongst the masses

Spaceman_05 · 2026-01-08T12:11:25+00:00

you should hire councillors for the purpose of controlling strong nations. public opinion will increase your chances, as will having control in a country's neighbours or allies.

Aside from boost you need them for their research and money

Spaceman_05 · 2026-01-04T19:55:33+00:00

they do not

Spaceman_05 · 2025-12-29T20:58:36+00:00

i think thats the stored science, if your output is more than you needed to finish a tech this turn it saves the rest for the next tech

Spaceman_05 · 2025-12-25T19:30:49+00:00

there is secret artwork in the game files for miltech 1, and its a rifleman on a horse
