"the expansion seemed to be getting feature complete"

Exciting!

May I take the opportunity to say how much I appreciate the excellent Linux support. It's a big part of why I'm so enthusiastic about recommending the game to others.

Gieba is Czech for "nope". Maybe it's not for a planet at all, but for what might be found in space... Anyway, I thought the final 7-minute long piece was brilliant - exactly the orchestral-electro fusion described. It opens with hints of Sim City 3000 and a "cute forest creatures&quo...

What if you run out of fuel on a bridge, and there's another stopped train in front of you? Does pushing push that one too, or damage it, or are you still stuck?

Found the teaser! Notice this excavator-claw-looking arm... thing on the player, hidden behind the UI window? ;) Whoa, I didn't even notice! Usually I at least see what they're hiding/teasing even if I'm not 100% sure. I checked the original foundry video and yeah, its not in there. I think you are...

Advanced search please!

The fact that ancient alien scrap contains circuits identical to and compatible with the engineer's tech suggests that the engineer spent a long time in hypersleep on the way to Nauvis, and is actually discovering the ruins of his own civilization.

I really appreciate the effort that goes into improving the game experience for power users. I hate to come across negative, but part of me does feel that this goes too far, while also not going far enough. Something about it reminds me of "low code / no code" tools, or perhaps GUI query b...

‘Twas the night before Christmas, and all through Nauvis Not a biter was stirring, nor even a fish; The steam plants were placed by the boilers with care, In hopes that the Engineer soon would be there; The spitters were nestled all snug in their nests; While visions of smelter stacks danced in thei...

Next planet prediction: a resource that decays rapidly once mined, meaning time is of the essence to get it to its destination. Thus calling for… assembler wagons! With interrupts that fire once the recipe is complete.

But I'm not entirely sure about the name. Doesn't exactly fly off the tongue. I can't really tell anyone about Volcanus unless I want them to roll on the floor laughing irl. Vul-can-us. Don't let the A be long or let the c get grouped with the first syllable :) It’s not too late to change it to Vul...

I love the little bit of kickback in the prototype harpoon animation.

Indexing and selecting seems like a nice, useful, orthogonal piece of functionality. The rest of the items (like stack size and rocket capacity) seem unrelated. I wonder if you should break those out into a separate “Utility Combinator” that could be the holding pen for miscellaneous combinator func...

Another great update - this one definitely raises at least as many questions as it answers! Do multiple space platforms exist on different surfaces or can they interact with each other? Do thrusters always have to go at the bottom, or could you build a platform with thrusters on the left that moves ...

https://images2.imgbox.com/3a/ff/ISFnSlbu_o.jpg Sorry... :o At first I was like "Wait, it can read THAT?". But then I realized that the entries don't even match the length of the blurred bits, so it just read the "Space map" headline and hallucinated fitting names. Classic large...

A trick I learned only recently is to set the output filter on a splitter to the deconstruction planner. This is useful when you only have one side of the splitter output connected up, because it prevents items from passing through to the end of the belt on the unconnected side where they would just...
