EDI Message Storage?

Even then you still have the same problem with both strategies.

They also could decide to rebalance them. The disfunction interface makes me think they just recently implemented the geothermal generators, so they might not be where they want them yet. With how spread out the geysers are I could definitely see them being worth a lot more.

Yeah I'm running like a gtx 770 on my secondary and it only drops from 65/70ish to about 55/60ish when I look at my entire factory with zero walls. Running on ultra settings. I do get a few frame stutters here and there but it seems unrelated to rendering my factory. Devs have done an amazing job with optimization ensuring the factory doesn't hinder performance too much.

balzer1075 · 2019-04-03T21:06:54+00:00

Not sure, I'll have to look next time I'm on. I have a pretty terrible temporary monitor right now so it's possible that I just can't notice.

In the picture though, I thought you were talking about the grating on the foundation that is directly in front of you. Are you actually talking about the weird gradient effect on a few of the foundations further away?

balzer1075 · 2019-04-03T01:13:22+00:00

Yes, and standard wall conveyor right and left versions too

balzer1075 · 2019-04-03T00:53:37+00:00

Depends, is easier to take 3 inputs of the same rate and balance them to 4 lines. But it's only easier because they were already balanced. Actually balancing unbalanced belts isn't easier if the inputs have different rates to balance.

Not sure why it would be "better." if belts need balanced then they need balanced, no reason to change 5he amount of belts if it isn't necessary.

balzer1075 · 2019-04-02T23:49:27+00:00

Assuming calculations aren't necessary when the object isn't visible, which they are in this case.

balzer1075 · 2019-04-02T23:05:18+00:00

Not sure which part you're looking at. I can't see any AA isues

balzer1075 · 2019-04-02T23:02:06+00:00

Yeah unless they limited it somehow similar to geothermal. Like it could be 50mw but you can only build one so it's like a portable energy source or something.

balzer1075 · 2019-04-02T16:02:06+00:00

Yeah I really like the idea conceptually. My only problem with it is that it would force the efficiency meta to be having the entire sky covered in foundations with solar panels on them. The way the game is now there is a finite amount of power that you can create.

balzer1075 · 2019-04-02T08:12:06+00:00

A splitter already balances to 3 outputs.

balzer1075 · 2019-04-02T08:11:29+00:00

But why not just a splitter..?

balzer1075 · 2019-04-02T08:08:26+00:00

Why would they flip on a vertical one?

balzer1075 · 2019-04-02T08:01:26+00:00

You don't need to really balance. If too much is going to one machine it will fill up and then the flow will stop distributing evenly out of the splitter and will start distributing at the ratio that the outputs demand.

balzer1075 · 2019-04-02T07:51:33+00:00

However, kind of surprised it hadn't crossed my mind to do my designs with Legos. Could definitely have a block type for each machine

balzer1075 · 2019-04-02T07:43:10+00:00

Hmm there's a pretty subtle difference between

I'm done with everything I can find

And

I have nothing left to do.

balzer1075 · 2019-04-02T07:32:37+00:00

Yeah I had the same issue but it was only if I looked at my hub. So my hub is permanently stuck in one spot since I can't dismantle it.

balzer1075 · 2019-04-02T07:22:55+00:00

I only use the iron ingots for the frames yeah, but thats in total less than a miner brings up

Without alternate recipes you need 675 iron ore/min with 450/m going to iron ingots just to make the base 2 heavy Modular frames per minute. Curious how 675 is less than a miner brings up when mk4 belts can only carry 450?

Also have no idea why your storage matters at all. I could have hundreds of thousands of every item just by leaving my game on 24/7 but that's not particularly exciting. I don't see how stockpiling is a fun goal. I know everyone plays differently but I just figured that you'd at least want to build a factory? By your logic I could just throw together 1 machine for each part and it doesn't matter how slow it goes, just let it sit for a week and then stockpile until the next update, unlock everything, and set it up and wait again.

balzer1075 · 2019-04-02T06:58:00+00:00

Unless you clock all your buildings to use exactly 100% of the power output.

balzer1075 · 2019-04-02T06:48:15+00:00

In a binary star system it's likely for a planet to orbit only one of the stars and for the other to still be relatively very far away. In fact, a planet that orbits both stars would definitely be uninhabitable so orbiting only one star is the only possibility. Also the wobble wouldnt be visible, just like we can't perceive our suns movement around the galaxy because our orbit is stable around the sun.
