I wonder why everyone are fixated on fission power when there is better (and already available in the game) alternative? Namely, fusion power. It is present in the form of the Portable Fusion Reactor - expensive, generating no pollution and requiring no fuel. Just add another research topic to upsca...

It's not the balance I am worried about, it's the performance. Attacks from groups of that size visibly slows down my computer when I am close to the fight.

There seems to be some problem with enemies. I constantly get attacked by swarms of the weakest enemies. It slowly starts to slow down the game when an attack occurs. Shouldn't they switch to smaller amount of bigger enemies? Check the lower right corner. That's a single attack force. I get attacked...

What is this all about?

Was something changed in bitter behavior model? I started my first game in 0.12 and they really swarm me now. In 0.11 I could just rush for a dozen burner drills and set up a basic automated factory before fist attack, now I had to scrap automated mining/smelting as it was too difficult to defend it...

The problem is that in 0.12 turrets required much less power to fire than they do in 0.12.1. I tested it on an older save and in 0.12 I could easily maintain 20-30 turrets firing, and in 0.12.1 the same turrets, in the same spot, caused my power grid to go yellow from the drain. There was nothing in...

Migrated. But in pure 0.12 everything was fine, I was using turret spam to clear out multiple nests, I did not notice any problems with energy. I have done some testing on my own on an older save game from that map. The save was from 0.12 In 0.12 my 20 some turrets fired without issues. Power grid d...

Ok.

Can you send me your save?

Sure, how do I do that? PM does not seem have the attachment option.

Nope. I do have another network, but it's purely for my second factory.

From Laser Turret description? I guess constant drain is 24kW, when it fires it takes 6.2MW. I got the pre patch value from Wiki.

2. Check the item's crafting time, divide it by the manufacturing speed of assembler (or smelting speed of furnace) This is the amount of seconds it takes to craft the item. Divide 60 by that number and you get production per minute. 3. 2 stone or 1 electric. 4. You might try Wiki https://forums.fac...

I do not have turrets stacked on each other, I already fixed that problem when 0.12 came out. In 0.12 everything was fine, now my turrets have energy consumption of 6.2 MW and every time I am facing a larger attack, the factory shuts down as it lacks energy. I have over 60MW spare energy generation,...

Was something done to Laser Turrets? An attack on my defense lines suddenly turns off my entire factory, something that did not happen before patch. Laser turret power requirement was quadrupled in the 0.12 update. Replace 'quadrupled' with whatever you say when it was multiplied by ten and you are...

Oh, I just checked Wiki. Laser Turret had 600 kW drain, now it has 6 MW... ten times more. Did I miss it in patch or something?

Of course the main reason I needed this is is that I was too lazy to set up local logistics bases, instead I made my construction bots carry them over a distance of 7+ roboports in a row. You no longer have to set up logistical bases. With new personal roboport you ARE the logistical base. That is ...

I did play on a real Death World. Not even a single bitter attack... even after I placed the Rocket Defense. In the long run? DW got boring really, really fast. Tons of fighting for no gain. Maybe now with the new improved turret spam I would try it again. What annoys me is not that I cannot handle ...

With the way the personal roboport is set up, it could be a huge bonus to drones. Let the drones recharge and rearm by attaching to the player, and recall them when they're nearly drained with no action. A reusuable drone will be a lot more useful and give something that can begin to compete with t...

From what I remember, the alien evolution level is capped at 1.0 and it's growth is based on several factors, pollution, destroyed bases and time. All I could do is hit the 1.0 cap. Not that difficult for someone using steam engines rather than solar power.
