Re: Crashing in Map Editor and Loading custome map 12.3

your running a gtx 980ti and a gtx 760 in sli? how is that possible ? do you mean by "primary" you're saying that your only using that one? It's not possible at all. Having another card is not giving you anything in term of performance boosting. You can not even move physx to the second c...

Re: [0.10.8] "space" fires combat shotgun out into the open

This may be intended behavior, but I'd like to call that intention back into question. The pistol and the sub-machine gun both train the user to think of the space bar as a gun with a safety. If there are no enemies around, it won't do anything harmful, whereas the c key is "no really, just fi...

Re: [MOD 0.11.x - 0.12.x] Marathon

Yes, indeed, I am 60h + in a game with RSO and Marathon, and I must say that this is brilliant. 1 Suggestion though - since vanilla medium and big electric poles use plates instead of wires most of the time they are easier and faster to craft then the small ones. I think it deserves some sort of a ...

Re: [0.12.x] RSO Discussion thread

I think these small patches are quite interesting to mine. Most of the time you end up lazing rails to a bigger deposit one waz or another, and encounter these small ones. I usually have an 1-wagon-small-patch-collector-train, which is driving slowly between the patches, collecting the resources fro...

Re: [MOD 0.11.x - 0.12.x] Marathon

Hi Guys, I want to start a new game with Marathon and RSO, and I don't want to waste several hours before I would realize that the mod is not active at all. So I downloaded 0.5.3 for the 0.12.3 version of the game, and in the mods menu I can see the Marathon mod there, I enabled it, but when I star...

Re: Tree not auto-marked for removal when forcing blueprint

Can confirm the same in 0.12.3, using RSO and Marathon. Sometimes shiftclicking does not mark trees for deconstruction. Attached a savefile where a turret from a blueprint does not force a tree for deconstruction.

Re: How I defend my base using outposts

I still dont agree with you, ssilk. Biters settle closest at >3 chunks away from your buildings. That means an outpost every 7th chunk. Lets sax we male state of the art outposts with a roboport, repair packs and spare parts and a double-layered wall. We provide electricity centralized from the main...

Re: [0.12.x] RSO Discussion thread

There is a change to balance ore amounts. This is exactly what I'm referring to. Forcing total resources regardless of patch size does weird things to generation. For example, I saw someone playing a couple days ago that had >100k coal in a one miner sized patch. In the other circumstance, you coul...

That would be interesting. Just assemble units which use the same pathfinding biters do to reverse-attack them.

Re: Combinators 101

I think that for such a complex topic you did an absolutely great job. No real space for improvement, maybe add some bells and whistles like a short summary to each combinator type. Or mazbe bigger captions for a more divided text.

Re: Combinators 101

The guide is impressive, very nice job!

Although I think you should work better with text structure to make it easier to swallow. Walls of text are always hard to grasp.

Re: [0.12.x] RSO Discussion thread

Ahh, that explains it. I never got it from the description of the mod, if your algorithms base on the settings provided by the map generator, or are constants in your config. I am so far satisfied with the generation, was just wondering.

Thank you for your help.

Re: How I defend my base using outposts

I disagree. I would start by cleaning out the spawners while laying the rail. After I have secured the area and layed the rail, I would get in into my construction train filled to the brim with turrets, solar panels, etc, drive manually to the place of the supposed outpost, place a station, lay a bl...

Re: [0.12.x] RSO Discussion thread

So, in case I would want the future resource generation be more/or less rich I would edit the save-specific map gen settings? Do I understand it right?
