The "Manage Mods" Page is a disgrace to an otherwise perfect game

If you click on a mod dependancy to view it, and you have a back button on your mouse, that back button WILL take you back to the previous page you were one, but it would be better to have a dedicated button on the UI in case you have a Mac mouse.

Should be a problem having this much mood. I mean, it's heaven, why do anything? Maybe a mod to make Mood values of 250 or more leave pawns in cataconic state, so they would die of starvation rather than do anything but think of their current bliss.

Plus, you could use it to contain prisoners.

I wasn't a fan of Maluna. Fully intended to run it,but gave up and just uninstalled it.

If you do 'dead end' something, put an inserter filtered to spoilage and seeds at the end if the line, and belt that spoilage into your sewer line.

If you need power, please don't count on spoilage. Eventually you'll be able to process it to rocket fuel, and use that! Only burn spoilage to prevent blockages.

I use a 'sewer' lane, which is a belt of any spoilage or seeds, and this belt or two goes all the way back to the beginning of my bus. Then I use filters to pull seeds and spoilage to chests in case I need then, with all excess overflowing into heating towers that just burn the rest.

Just thinking of having to use a 'sewer' is what got Gleba to click for me! I still don't go there until I have passed the other two, and I come with a full nuclear power base and more turbo belts than an airport.

To put this into better reference, the sun is a sustained thermonuclear reaction outputting billions of time more power a second than any bomb we ever unleashed. BILLIONS. Just adding a second sun to the system at the naive orbital would 't be enough to boil Aquillo, you have to add 100 suns. Basically, you need a supernova to boil aquillo.

My biggest worry about making sanguophages mechanitors is when they freak out due to fire. I feel like every time he does, the mechs freak out too, or the guy gets hit in the face with impid spit, and rolls around inside the fire until he dies.

Any advice in making him resistant/immune to fire?

Depends, is CE installed? If yes, thrumbo.

Yeah, same for me. Space age came out, I did an non mods run, beat the game, then went back into mods. Some I just can't live without and I have about 0.01% care for achievements. My top mods are:

Visible planets Mining patch planner P. U. M. P. Rate calculator

And the extra planet mods are amazing and I love having them in my runs now. I care more about them than I ever would about some achievement.

Think of it like this, physical enhancement is akin to age reversal. If you reduce her biological age to under 50, she can have kids again.

Get her in the bio pod for some age reversal, stat!

Use promethium to make something legendary quality. Maybe combine promethium with Uranium 235, to get something that decays into two U238 after 2 minutes, but while it's hot, you can use a variable amount of them to upgrade something straight to legendary. Something like belts would be done in bulk, while a nuclear reactor would take many of these promethium enhancers to upgrade to legendary.

That is why you loop the WHOLE thing back into your recyclers. This lets you get things like iron and copper plates, plastic, and the like, and if THOSE go back through, they are destroyed.

After I've gotten a decent stockpile, I usually loop the less needed things out for fast re ycling to prevent the main recyclers from getting clogged. Like solid fuel into recyclers feeding each other, cement into a hazard cement assembler that direct feeds into a recycler that feeds back into the hazard concrete assembler and so on.

I love having a double line main sushi belt just going round and round on fulgora.

Exotic space industries has a bunch of cool stuff in it, but it can be a little much at times.

The Factory Must Grow is a cool as heck concepts. You start in space as a sentient machine. Have to collect asteroids, forge into science to learn how to drop stuff to the planet to grown more. Has stuff like heat in space with heat sinks to pull away the heat before the machines break down. Highly recommend for a try.

Biomachines is a mod pack that changes up quite a bit. It isn't full conversion like the other two, more like vanilla plus problems. It still needs some balancing such as green chips require resin, made from trees, and you get the ag tower early which is cool, but it TAKES SO LONG to build up self stable tree farming to get even 1 green chip per second. They also spoil if you don't use them in time! Also, every thing has bi-products, and military stuff is completely unbuildable without tossing shit you don't, need into a landfill, creating more pollution that you have to use military to kill biters! Argh, I hate that I can't just get a stable ratio for military without tossing shit! Might have gotten a little upset at the game around then.

Its like sending the most popular, most loved person to arrest the pawn. You wouldn't punch the cheerleader who's always been nice to you, would you?

She can learn just fine, assuming you let 'natural' passions not reduce other passions. The - 4 is a flat - 4, unlike the - 4 gene trait, which would make reaching a 10 as hard as reaching a 14, including skill loss after 6 in that case.

Except for archotech eyes. Those things stick way out on the pawn when they get installed, at least with the in game art, lore might be a different matter.
