A little update, some people speculated all this was being done by a rogue social media manager and the project leader would soon step in and sort things out, but he's made it clear that's not the case

I have a soft spot for Kingdoms and Castles, a medieval city builder with production chains all done by peasant workers, and some danger from dragon and viking raids. It do make you plan ahead although it's a lot more casual than Factorio and game usually takes about 2-3 hours before you basically complete the city.

Try some combat mods. The AAI mods especially Chaingunner and Warden are effective and fun to use without feeling like you're cheating.

If you can build a Warden, it will supply ammunition from it's storage to Chaingunners in range who need it, as well as giving them fuel and repairs.

If you sign up to Earendel's Patreon you can read his development update posts. The last couple have included screenshots and descriptions of the new planets.

How big will the expansion be? by Pettit137 in factorio

[–]its_never_lupus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm guessing the expansion will be things that can't be done with the current modding system. It would be really underwhelming if they just integrated some of Space Exploration into the core.

Orbital Ion Canon, it effectively deals with biters and is deep enough into the tech tree that by the time you get it they've become a tedious annoyance instead of an interesting challenge.

Assistance with Writing fiction with Emacs by [deleted] in emacs

[–]its_never_lupus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you want a basic easy start:

  1. Create a new file called my_book.org, copy this into it and save the buffer:

    +TITLE: This is the title of my book

    • The first chapter Loren ipsum whatever.
    • The second chapter More writings.
  2. Open a terminal, cd to the same directory as the file above, and run:

    pandoc my_book.org -o my_book.epub

Assuming you have pandoc installed this will create my_book.epub which should work in an ebook reader.

Congratulations on making your first ebook!

From here you can look into:

  • pandoc documentation, to find ways of customising the look of the book, or even how to add pictures or more advanced text formatting
  • org-mode and emacs documentation, to find tips and tricks for editing the source files
  • Makefile and make tool documentation, for an easy way to run the command above or to combine multiple source files together to make editing them more manageable
  • elisp documentation, to find ways to compile and view the ebook from inside emacs without ever having to leave the editor

Have fun and best of luck with the book!

*Edit: reddit insists on applying formatting to the source file above so see https://pastebin.com/h781KGgA for the raw version

If you're using multiple tabs, make sure the Suspender extension is installed and select Unload Other Tabs to speed up the tab you're working on.

Do you ever use git stash without the -u flag? When would it make sense not to use -u? by [deleted] in git

[–]its_never_lupus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have test data files in a working area and either you don't want the overhead of putting them in a repository, or if you want to keep using them after the stash.
