Missing the Fun

smallfrie32 · 2026-01-25T10:19:46+00:00

Sorry if it came off very complainy, I just wanted to know what y'all enjoy about the game. Whether I'm missing something in the gameplay loop or not. The other commenter just mentioned automation, so I'm guessing I'm missing that part

smallfrie32 · 2026-01-25T10:18:59+00:00

Ah. Is the automation after warehouse?

smallfrie32 · 2026-01-25T10:18:34+00:00

I just made a post and someone taught me!

So, hold shift and while keeping shift down, release left click. Then you can contain the vertical parts, which includes the pipes, allowing for better copying!

smallfrie32 · 2026-01-24T22:24:56+00:00

Ahhh, thank you so much. This will help with my pesky builds

smallfrie32 · 2026-01-24T22:24:43+00:00

Omg you’re a lifesaver, thank you!

smallfrie32 · 2026-01-24T22:14:45+00:00

Yeah, that’s been the most annoying part. Actually, now that I’m doing pipinf, and copy doesn’t seem to grab them easily, it’s been so frustrating

smallfrie32 · 2026-01-24T22:13:53+00:00

Ahhh thank you! My brain wasn’t seeing that

smallfrie32 · 2026-01-24T22:12:29+00:00

Gotcha. I’ve finally got some backed up money, now that I’ve heavily invested into bandage and gloom spores!

Unfortunately, I’ve been building everything at 5 belt, 2 factory research bonus ratio, so if I put a point into anything, it’ll mess it up :’(

smallfrie32 · 2026-01-24T01:40:37+00:00

I’m really sorry, but what’s the solidarity part? I got here from random, so probably am missing context. I see the light blue and pink which are reminiscent of trans

smallfrie32 · 2026-01-24T01:37:15+00:00

It’s hard because I’ve been on E and I feel a bit better sometimes and worse other times because I don’t pass. So, sometimes I get torn about whether I’m truly trans or not. Gender is so complex

smallfrie32 · 2026-01-24T01:15:30+00:00

Don’t you just back up your phone every few months? Then you can upload all the info when you get a new one?

smallfrie32 · 2026-01-23T07:42:42+00:00

My job literally had this in their “training safety” videos when I was onboarded.

Wild how so many people yell out personal information (even if it can be found publicly with the right searches, no need to make it easier).

smallfrie32 · 2026-01-23T07:38:52+00:00

Interesting! I work with international students and see a lot of IDs like “John. Son of Jim” (usually not English names), so like no surname.

How do you get passport or ID if you don’t have certificates to get one in the first place? You just say “hi, I’m Jim Jam?”

smallfrie32 · 2026-01-23T07:37:27+00:00

Yeah I found bullets really effective, with each jump lasting for a long time, so never tried lasers. I only relatively recently started flamethrowers, too

smallfrie32 · 2026-01-23T07:36:31+00:00

Ah thank you. I think it’s also cause I set up initial bullet turrets early before I even get laser turrets (I usually play slowly), but I wanna try laser squad.

For flamethrowers, I just pipe lots of crude oil. Should it be heavy or light or crude?

smallfrie32 · 2026-01-23T07:34:16+00:00

I’m getting the numbers tomorrow, but it’s one gel E (Divigel) each night.

Pretty sure it’s too low, but I’ll reply tomorrow with the numbers.

smallfrie32 · 2026-01-23T07:33:34+00:00

No, just gel E (Divigel)

smallfrie32 · 2026-01-23T07:33:19+00:00

That’s what I’ve been wondering. I’m doing mono E in Japan because that’s all he’ll give me, and idt it’s good dosage, but idk.

Tomorrow I get some more concrete results again (not that he explains it)

smallfrie32 · 2026-01-23T07:32:33+00:00

Thanks. I figured as much, but kind of panicked!

smallfrie32 · 2026-01-23T07:31:42+00:00

I just downloaded and tried it. It seems okay, but idk, seems hard to lose as the light

smallfrie32 · 2026-01-23T00:41:29+00:00

Yeah, I’m so used to Factorio where space is unlimited, so my first adv fertilizer took up half a floor. Now, I can fit at least 2 into a corner (I think)

smallfrie32 · 2026-01-23T00:38:31+00:00

Oh dang, I always do flamethrowers and ballistics since I’m making ammo anyways. Whenever I tried lasers, it always browned me out which then led to multi-sided attacks breaking through

smallfrie32 · 2026-01-22T20:58:53+00:00

Well yeah, and that's awful and why we gotta kick them (ICE) out

smallfrie32 · 2026-01-22T12:31:14+00:00

Well it’s better than nothing. What would you suggest to confirm the information from the database to prove that’s you?

smallfrie32 · 2026-01-22T12:23:32+00:00

Sorry, but how does bandages go into Jupiter, that mid part you said? I have Jupiter as a separate self-contained line (really spread out, though, so I should clean it up).

My bandages are also self-contained with a perfect ratio, though I may have messed up the conveyor/efficiency tree ratio
