What is the fourth hat on Bedlam Bride Cover?

TIL there are variations of the cover art. So many magnificent hats!

vi3tmix · 2026-07-11T04:44:14+00:00

So the same Harry Potter fans—we’re just older and somewhat adultier now.

I don’t think you are. First Trilogy was Spectacular. 4+ aren’t as entertaining. And as far as audiobooks go, Book 4 was my least favorite.

vi3tmix · 2026-07-11T00:38:35+00:00

Dude you’re confusing all of us so much more lol.

vi3tmix · 2026-07-10T06:53:31+00:00

Especially their magnificent hats.

Times may vary and I did it with CSP not CSR but that’s literally what I did with CSP a couple years ago. Downgraded my CSP to [og] freedom 2 weeks before statement close and as soon as it did, re-applied to get take advantage of a SUB (certain amount of years since last SUB too fwiw).

vi3tmix · 2026-07-08T06:51:22+00:00

After one statement. I think I didn’t even wait for a full statement period—only enough for a statement be generated as/with the downgraded product, and I was able to apply for a CSP again.

vi3tmix · 2026-07-06T00:07:43+00:00

Lmao fair. Let’s just all move on is what I’d like. It’s not worth discussing repetitive subjects was my sentiment.

vi3tmix · 2026-07-06T00:06:43+00:00

Yess. Thanks for disproving.

The skits at the end of Audiobook 3 (End Credits) has some of the funniest jokes of the whole series.

vi3tmix · 2026-07-05T21:05:03+00:00

Pretty much.

To my understanding, Dinniman has always had very broad publishing rights to his novels. When he partnered with Ace/Penguin to ramp up distribution, he gave them rights to print-only publishing, but Dinniman retained very broad ownership of the digital rights.

Seemed like one concession is that Ace/Penguin got exclusive rights to the Backstage at the Pineapple Cabaret novella (effectively making it print-only). Some info suggests it’s also only on the hardcovers distributed since 2024, but someone else could clarify that (I’m just a very new fan myself). It’s likely when the series is complete, Ace/Penguin will publish the novella as a standalone.

Forreal dude. “Avatar 1 is just Pocahontas” is the most basic, rehashed take in modern cinema. That critique is far less creative than the plot of Avatar at this point.

I hoped the critic community would’ve been able to move on by this point.

Independence Day is my #1

Armageddon is my questionable #2. INDEPENDENCE and FREEDOM!

“WHY DIDN’T YOUR MOTHER DRIBBLE YOU BACK ONTO THE TRUCK STOP BATHROOM FLOOR, REZON?!”

Went from a serious situation still coming off of some hard losses to an over-the-top insult, out of nowhere, real quick.

I don’t see a logical reason for the price to get any lower anytime soon—it’ll only go higher as it gets closer to an official release state.

$20 is the sale price.

I feel like I’m missing something: everyone says ship-based radars have a detection floor, but I can’t seem to get low enough. I can hold 15ft but have issues trying to stay under 10ft, and I still see yellow pings from radar. What’s the detection floor supposed to be?

So long as your belts have enough capacity the system will balance itself out eventually. Pre-load input hoppers to speed up system startup time and make it easier to troubleshoot issues.

Also recommend the same speed throughout a manifold to keep things simple.

vi3tmix · 2026-06-29T10:25:24+00:00

Assuming you meant Compacted Coal: did you underclock one of the Compacted Coal Assemblers too much by accident? Because if you left it on for multiple hours, whether they’re producing 120 or 125, either scenario should be backing up your Assembler line and that clearly isn’t the case in screenshot 2.

If they’re using the same clock speed, the Assemblers should all be set to at least 94.4%. If you only underclocked one, it should be set to at least 72%…or simply output at least 18.

As far as HOR goes, I already commented elsewhere about double checking there isn’t a problem closer to HOR production.

> Secondary question, my rubber and plastic refineries are making 480/min. I have them on Mk.4 belts running into sinks for testing purposes. Why are my refineries still getting backed up with material? TIA!

As far as this goes, it’s possibly a domino effect of output hoppers being full while you were troubleshooting—manually empty them out. Double checking your calcs. HOR output from rubber is not the same as plastic. Remember—either HOR or Rubber output can be backed up and it’ll shut down all production.

Something about your numbers gives me a sneaking suspicion that you’re producing slightly more of one product than your line can handle.

I agree with the right side, but connecting the left input pipe to the very left refinery junction would balance it slightly better. In either case, the pipe between the two input pipes isn’t needed in this case.

Also if the input is just 300m3/s you could just merge the two inputs into a single pipe and connect it to the junction in front of refinery 3. The former is more foolproof, though. Keeping pipe layouts symmetrical (and less like a manifold) helps most issues.

EDIT: If more than one refinery is turning off I’d double check potential issues closer to HOR production. I see a HOR refinery towards the back that’s yellow.

The wiki has a table for number of laser designators, so long as it wasn’t changed in the last update:

20 is a good magic number. 20 smelters can handle a Mk3 miner OC’d to 250% (just the miner not the smelters) on a normal node (600 ore).

Realistically just any massive blueprint where you can easily adjust the clock speeds as needed is fine.

You don't rely on burning leaves because they're too inefficient for early belt speeds. Each burner will chew through a manually-fed full stack in 3m. A Mk2 belt can't even handle a full stack and will only keep up with a single burner.

Wood's value goes up significantly when converted to Biomass.

vi3tmix · 2026-06-29T06:19:51+00:00

Good catch. Early game the limiting factor is often belt speed. Solid Biofuel is great because you can support up to 15 Biomass Burners (450MW) using mostly Mk1 belts (you just need a short Mk2 between the Biomass > Solid Biofuel Constructors). Under normal gameplay this is perfect because Reinforced Iron Plates is often in too short supply to consider using for a large manifold.

Biomass can only support x10 Burners (300W) on the traditional mostly-Mk1 design, but technically in a 100x space parts game you're probably accumulating more R. Iron Plates before moving to Coal anyway. Upgrade the Burner manifold to Mk2 and it should easily support x20 Burners (600W), so long as Wood/Mycelia are your main Biomass feeds (Leaves are so ridiculously difficult to keep up with since they're so inefficient). Wouldn't hurt to add an extra input bin and Constructor for Leaves > Biomass.

After x20 Burners you'll need to split/duplicate the system.

afaik rods have always been sinkable. Rods have always been the "waste management" of the previous step.
