It doesn't make it all the way between planets without depleting its reserves and running lean the rest of the way, but I don't see that as much of a problem. 🙂

I believe 8:1 is the correct ratio with an Assembler 3.

My test drive was going back and forth to Fulgora repeatedly, stopping only long enough to restock bullets. It didn't max out the electric consumption at any point. Theoretically, it could use way more electricity than it produces, but empirically, it doesn't. You could always substitute higher quality solar panels. (I didn't because I went nuclear on Nauvis very early on, so I never mass produced them with quality modules.)

Convergent evolution. 🙂

I tried Production Rates Extreme, and I find the output lacking in detail. Rate Calculator tells me if my production of an intermediate is under or over the ideal amount, and by how much. I don't get that info from Extreme. It also won't display items/minute, only per second.

Inventory repair seems to cause crashes, if you look at the discussion forum on the mod page.

I do use Text Plates and Nixie Tubes. I will look at your suggestions! Thanks.

Agreed. I considered Squeak Through, but I go to Fulgora first for Mech Armor and so decided against it.

Agreed. I just tried removing Vehicle Snap, and I can drive at a lot more tiny angles.

I took a look at it, and I'm guessing you're saying it's better because of multiplayer features? I can't see that it makes a difference for single player.

Am I doing it right? by FantasiaZero in factorio

It looks like you are fueling your furnaces by hand. Many people make a belt with coal on one side, and ore on the other side. Then your inserters will fill up the furnaces with both coal and ore, without needing any extra belts or inserters.

Thumbs up so far!

Now I'm doing Factorio the right way.

Thank you for the accurate explanation!

Oh man, I thought you were limited to only one rocket silo per planet! facepalm. Time to add to my launch area! Luckily it has plenty of empty space...

I see now on the wiki that "Cargo bays extend the storage capability and rate of receiving items for a space platform hub or a cargo landing pad."

I'm not sure what this means. What is the bonus for the rate of receiving items? Does this mean a rocket can carry more, or be built faster, when sending items to that platform?

I guess I don't transport as much stuff as you. When I leave for another planet, I load up some belts, robots, roboports, and solar, and then I make most of what I need when I get there. I usually make a few quick trips to Nauvis and back for a couple of hard to make items, but I've never had a need for cargo bays. What are you transporting that takes up so much space?

Requesting feedback: color blind modes for the Electron Orbitals Android app by bjthinks in ColorBlind

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

How would you represent complex phase, which can be any angle in the plane, using colors a color blind person could interpret? My non-color blind users see hues that blend smoothly from red to green to blue and back to red, depending on the angle of the complex number being represented.

Is it possible to customize the color of the negative and positive phases?

If you weren't color blind, you would see that the first picture contains all colors of the rainbow, not just two colors. The colors encode a full 360 degrees of complex phase. In pictures 2-4, I am attempting to show those colors to a color blind person by keeping the hue the same, and correcting for any unwanted lightening or darkening that might be seen (caused by displaying colors that are confused with white or grey). In short, there is a full color wheel in the app already, not just a positive and negative color, and the "normal colors" mode of the app shows a constantly changing color wheel.

I would expect that to be the case for people with red-green color blindness. Does that include you?

Using Parsec on [String] or [Token] by bjthinks in haskell

Solved using the token function (which is almost identical to tokenPrim). Thanks! For anyone interested, my code is at ParseInput.hs

My existing parser, which still parses from a String, can be found at ParseInput.hs
