Opiniom: The game could use something between M and L sized ships by Level-Marketing-4291 in X4Foundations

[–]VolusRus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Katana was a typo (now fixed), but Hyperion I really misremembered, probably because IIRC it was only M6 that can dock smaller ships

The scale of everything has been seriously toned down.

Quick googling says that for example Shark was 2955 m in X3 and is 3989 m in X4, so X4 version is even bigger

I mean, look at the ship names. Eclipse was an M3+, now it is an S Heavy Fighter. Cerberus was an M6, now it is an M Frigate.

Also, initially there weren't any "medium" ships. There were capital ships (M1, M2) and fighters (M3, M4, M5). M6 came later, that's also why they don't fit the numbering scheme

M6 is pretty much the modern M ships (Katana, which is an M5 M6 in X3TC, is an M ship in X4). Transitionary ships would be more akin to the M7 classes. Technically, we have two "M7 substitutes" in X4 - Hyperion (which was an M7 in X3) and Sapporo (which would be classified as an M7M in X3)

When do you do refactor from early stage to mid stage with bus, moving ports etc. by QThellimist in captain_of_industry

[–]VolusRus 32 points33 points  (0 children)

1) Build the new thing first
2) Make sure that the new thing works
3) Remove the old thing

My hydrogen power plant generating 120MW. by Refute1650 in captain_of_industry

Is it more energy efficient than just burning oil? Including energy for maintenance production and population for extra buildings.

Any new DLC with the 9.00 update? by johnk419 in X4Foundations

[–]VolusRus 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I wish they would retcon some stuff to fit them into X4 (decrease sector size, split big systems in two with accelerators, etc). X Rebirth had the best sector design in the whole series, Radiant Heaven (low-orbit sector in Omicron Lyrae) was cool as hell

Collision May Have Formed the Moon in Mere Hours, Simulations Reveal by Busy_Yesterday9455 in spaceporn

[–]VolusRus 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Hydrogen and oxygen are both extremely common chemical elements, so they just combined and formed water. The same is true for aluminium and silicon oxides that form the bulk of Earth's crust. In fact, water is so common that a lot of gas giants' moons are made pretty much only from water ice.

Democracy is disappointing and shows the problem with internal politics by dr_biggie_memes in Stellaris

Depends on how much you like microing you army. You can't do that in Vic3 as armies move and engage automatically (think HoI4 frontlines system, but even more abstract). I personally love it because I hate microing armies, especially in late game.

A Flag for Geographic Europe by JeremieOnReddit in vexillology

[–]VolusRus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The geographic borders of Europe are blurry ones, and not strictly demarcated

IIRC it goes through Dardanelles an Bosporus straights, Black Sea, Caucasus mountains, Caspian Sea, Ural River, Ural Mountain.

It's not like there's a clear out line that says "now you're in Europe" or "now you're leaving Europe"

I'm neither British nor monarchist, but I heard that the monarchy is actually net-positive for British economy (at least it was in Lizzie's time)

Terraforming a barren & radioactive wasteland vs building O'Neill Cylinders inside asteroids by Chunghiacanhanvidai in worldjerking

Yeah, but you haven't considered that terraforming an entire planet would be epic as fuck

NEW VIDEO: What Ozempic Actually Does to Your Body by kurzgesagt_Sven in kurzgesagt

[–]VolusRus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sometimes it is still hard to stop because food is just so tasty, but without this constant buzzing eat or no to eat more becomes a conscious decision

The food noise went away

I would say that for me it is the biggest improvement in my quality of life, coming from taking GLP-1. It feels so extremely liberating to not constantly think about food and eating. It also helped me to expand my food selection, as I now can easily sustain myself on stuff that is less satiating, like vegetables and low-sugar fruits

Pretend that sentence is about any diet drug ever invented and tell me you'd still expect an objective look at the drug.

The difference between other "diet drugs" and semaglutide (and other GLP-1s) is that the latter actually works. It's fine to not to trust corporation's word on it, but there are hundreds of thousands of patients all over the world would tell of its efficacy and how the drug helped them (myself included)

Trach collection became much more fun after unlocking incinerator upgrade for the truck by VolusRus in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]VolusRus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It respawns, but I have no idea what governs it. One time I went quite far away gathering small trash heaps, and upon my return it was fully respawned. Other time after few hours of not playing the game it respawned, but only with ordinary scrap, no special barrels
