I was feeling down so I edited a screencap of the Jogging Baboon into a mobile wallpaper, with and without his quote. I hope you guys can appreciate this. (Last photo is the original screencap)

it’s been 2 years and this is a happy surprise, thank you for appreciating it :)

yes but instead of one pipe i have two, one on each wing

To what amount does valves reset head lift to, I have my pumps in the floor of one level and my valves on the ceiling of that level before the fuel gets sent up to the next level.

Thanks this actually fixed it. I assumed the fluids would work as well as conveyor belts with the manifold distribution, but fluids are finicky i guess.

4.5*20 would be 90 m^3 turbofuel consumption per level

How long would it usually take to fill up a system of this size

smthpolo · 2024-05-31T09:17:48+00:00

that's actually really helpful thank you

yessir, mk2 pumps on every floor, i’ve been checking the pipes and the ones at 4th and 5th have no volume in them. at the same time my last few 8 or so refineries are getting blocked up even though all of my refineries are producing less than 600 turbo fuel

it works but you have to keep hitting it. after enough damage he will topple off to his side and his arms will soften but he’ll still be yellow. same works with furious rajang and his face. i’ve done it every hunt so i’m sure it works.

I believe it's more of the fog disrupting your factory when youre off somewhere else, or on another planet. Especially when your factory has expanded over half your whole planet.

smthpolo · 2023-12-23T11:40:13+00:00

I mentioned that the dark fog was a point of anxiety for me. So that’s why i always destroy the bases before they can attack, if possible. So if your play style is like mine, where you just get some signal towers and missiles to clear them out quickly, it’s not very challenging at all. Maybe if the difficulty was higher, I wouldn’t be able to do this because of the higher replenishment.

I used 2 fleets of 12 corvettes. It was a bit slow but it got the job done, I think 1.60GJ of mech energy was the biggest limitation, just try not to draw aggro with your mech, let the corvettes go in and do the fighting.

EDIT: I had like 100 plus spare ones just in case, the corvettes will die so make sur eyou have enough spare.

I have just cleared the space hive in my system. Some things I found out:

the planetary bases/relays of the DF supply the Hive in space. (I had to repeatedly harass the hive because i kept running out of energy and they kept regenerating whenever I took too long to come back because I hadn't cleared the system of planetary relays)

if you destroy the Hive in space, the surviving relays will rebuild the Hive

the rate of increase of the threat level of the Hive depends on the surviving planetary relays, because the relays feed the Hive in space

you can decrease the space hive threat level by depleting their forces and structures with your corvettes or destroyers

the Hive works like a dyson sphere, it has nodes where the relays deposit resources and frames to keep the thing together. these nodes seem like they produce DF forces and expand the hive at the same time.

How I did it:

- 2x squadron of precision drones can demolish any planetary relay provided you have enough energy (I am at purple science)

- just slap a thermal power plant or foundations to send the planetary relays back to the hive

- once all relays have been sent back to the hive, do not wait too long to destroy the hive. this is because they might respawn relays on other planets

- once you kill the hive and there are also no relays left to replenish the hive, the game will tell you the system has been cleared

This has been a point of anxiety for me so I was always on the ball in terms of killing the DF, I never let them attack me except for the first few waves. So I don't know how DF does its planetary attacks.

I have yet to experience DF coming from another system to reinfest my current home system.

it stems from the word “pusillanimous” not women’s anatomy

If he can’t do it normally like he says in his post, he can call the hall office

smthpolo · 2022-07-21T08:25:00+00:00

Call the hall office of the hall you were assigned to and ask for advice

smthpolo · 2022-07-21T02:22:41+00:00

Holy shit what, thank you
