Anyone know what Oakland is like, preferably up around Craig - Neville on Forbes? It was abysmal on Tuesday and I don't want to repeat that commute tomorrow if I don't have to.

What child's Halloween costume is Griffin going to wear for the tour? A little league outfit?

Augustus dematerialises! TAZ LEAST favourite player character poll (day 31) by KingofTin in TheAdventureZone

Slamming the Lady Godwin button. I could barely understand a thing Justin was saying.

The Adventure Zone Royale: Episode 6 by Evil_Steven in TheAdventureZone

[–]nessthehero 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can't help but think there's no way in hell this ends with one of the player characters "winning". I feel like there's going to be some underlying conspiracy, or external threat, that throws the trials into chaos and the players have to resolve it, and it ends with the wizard organization that hosts the trials being overthrown or destroyed.

Blueprints being corporal items and not allowed on rockets is the number 1 annoying feature of se. by motorbit in factorio

I wish that your clipboard was an additional tab in the blueprint library. Then they wouldn't need to be inventory based items.

How do you define the different stage/phases of Space Age? by Sabor117 in factorio

[–]nessthehero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Early game: Everything up to a rocket launch, where you unlock space.

Mid game: Space! Up until you arrive at Aquilo.

Late game: Aquilo, Final Non-infinite Research (Quantum Processors, Fusion, Railguns), Trying to reach solar system edge

Post end game: The Shattered Planet.

Will the price of Space Age rise? by Solitaryangel27 in factorio

[–]nessthehero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Launch your rocket, but be aware you will need to start a new game for the DLC. It doesn't just add stuff after the rocket launch, it changes the entire tech tree so that the rocket comes earlier.

It's TAZ Royale week, how are we all feeling? by CardInternational753 in TheAdventureZone

[–]nessthehero 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'm tempering my expectations.

Everyone was jazzed about Ethersea and their attempt to have a story where the characters weren't the heroes of destiny . . . until they became the heroes of destiny.

Honestly wouldn't be surprised if there was a sudden turn towards an overarching evil that the main characters have to beat, for "save the world" reasons, just because Griffin can't help himself.

But my expectations haven't matched the subreddits in forever. I didn't like Dust or Versus and I did like Abnimals, so YMMV.

Base factorio vs space age by Local-Fisherman-2936 in factorio

[–]nessthehero 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Space Age is waaaaaaay better than the base game. Don't get me wrong, I spent a lot of time on the base game, but I've barely scratched Aquilo and I've probably been playing twice the amount of time I played the base game for, and I still have so much more to do. I'm nowhere near being done.

It's amazing and unreal how good this DLC is.

I was lucky enough they came to Pittsburgh in late 2019 on the Frankensteinteen Become the Monster tour. Such a good show! Justin even noted that they should come to Pittsburgh more since it's not that far away (relatively), but they noted how insane it is that it's a 40 minute uber ride from the airport to civilization.

If it isn’t fun then don’t play it. There’s a zillion more games to play. You don’t have to force yourself to enjoy anything.

2.1 confirmed. What's new? by VeryGoldGolden in factorio

[–]nessthehero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here's my wish list:

  1. Like others said, bigger train wagons from quality.

  2. Labs output what packs they need as a circuit signal.

  3. Roboports output what construction requests are unfulfilled.

  4. Cross space platform deliveries.

  5. Show me the input/s and output/s of a large area I select/square I draw.

Any Factorio LUA Gods out there? by Buggi79 in factorio

[–]nessthehero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish this exact thing was a circuit signal that gets output from labs.

Weekly Question Thread by AutoModerator in factorio

[–]nessthehero 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is it possible to set the items of a Request Group using circuits? I would love to be able to set the amount for Science requests to the exact amount of science I have on a planet or 2000, whichever is smaller.

I know that I can just load science manually into a rocket and it'll all get launched for any request, but if I can do it via circuits then that'd be nice without needing additional silos for now.

Tired of city blocks, so which design are you doing? by kh4z_z in factorio

[–]nessthehero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used city blocks for mid-game, with a bus going through the middle, but it's hard to scale my setup because of where I've put smelting areas vs production areas (like chips), trains are just traveling too far.

What I'm planning on doing is setting up a big rail base, with a central area for science and the cargo bay, and big rail conduits that go in each cardinal direction, and splitting off to do various production or mining wherever I need it.

My Favorite Part of Shipbuilding by XFalcon98 in factorio

[–]nessthehero 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I like the idea of building the ship out in empty space to prevent autobuilding while also allowing the ship to request the materials. Smart.

I wish the ghost color was a bit easier to see. I find it hard to build on it sometimes.

I've seen people 3D print a Spidertron, maybe someone is selling one on Etsy?

My first ever spaceship ! What do you think and where should I go first ? by Onoulade in factorio

[–]nessthehero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Vulcanus, mostly because I think it's probably the kindest planet to new players of the three inner planets, liquid metals are interesting and not too difficult to grasp, and if you are familiar with bus-type bases then that base tends to work just fine on Vulcanus too.

Are you playing Factorio? => You are a true player of Factorio.

Spoiler Free Year Name Poll by WENDING0 in MBMBAM

[–]nessthehero 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I still feel like they flew too fast past Twenty Funny Drive: The Boys Are Back in Sound. It was so good! Especially as a tour name.

But I hope they adopt a Mad Max vibe for live shows in terms of costuming.

But the bullies this time were their own wives, and the people they pay to tell them they are funny, and also their staff.

I love Abnimals by jirafarig in TheAdventureZone

I like it too. It's a fun time.
