The Hydra Dilemma - Best Bits
I like it Fish. You should do more cuts like you did with the red science. One person thinks it is great and every one else is scratching their heads. I know that happened several times.

Any word on day/time for the live event?

Obviously times are in BST, so you can use something like http://www.worldtimebuddy.com/ to find the correct time for where you are. :)

Thats the times. Just type in your location to see what time it will be locally for you. For most people it should work pretty well, it being a weekend and everything. I'm the guy that's shit out of luck and will be streaming at 6am in the morning.

Dedication right there folks :D

Not sure how much it matters, because I might be the only person in Mountain Standard Time, but the listed on the above link is incorrect. It is 1 hour too early. This is completely my fault, as I told -root my time zone, and forgot we were still in daylight savings time or whatever. -.-
So for anyone in MST or going off that time, it is actually going to be 1:30PM MST, NOT 12:30!
Apologies and hopefully this won't affect too much except me.
Worse comes to worse, you will just get there an hour early. :p

Sadly I can not join :(.

But the first 2 episodes of 'Warehouse 13' (4th intsllament(?) (4. Staffel)) hinders me to look into the twitch stream :(

After playing a bit on the map I could really say that it was close to get to rocket defense (a second version would have probably raised the episodes to over 100). Even I ripped down nearly every module production, iron is the biggest problem (even I already get the half of the iron field in the west), but also the copper dries out very fast . After increasing production of batteries to become electrical independent the deficit of the oil production gets visible (even without a plastic production). Problems in 2 1/2 main resources. What I really miss compared to my own map are masses of green modules.

I started to expand the solar area to the north (about two more logistic areas) to enclose the next iron field and will expand it to the east with a huge step of the walls. There is so much space without the need to rip down forests (and one more iron field). Maybe the existing area was too small for the electrical independence. Not without a huge rearrangement. To get there in an episode the north-expansion would have to be done a round before. But the securing of the base was really easy and not much time consuming. One blueprint, some realigning of walls, some extra work at the corners and the north, east and south protection could have been easy done in one episode.

One of the biggest logistic problems is the transport of copper. Trains will start to run back not totally emptied on one side and to not fully filled on the other side. Outpost and unloading have to get an upgrade. Even every copper smelter runs the belt will jam back and stop the unloading. I would build a new train section between the existing walls and the oil fields in the west (south of the big lake), the smelting of both in the east of it and after that the plates will enter the existing walls. But also more work as fits into one episode.

Two highlights:
  • I got the message that trains are destroyed (destroyed, not only attacked), in the map it blinked at the intersection between east-oil and south-copper. When I arrived at this side of the factory a train (copper) was arriving that lost some health (green bar) and the other (oil) was also driving well. So whatever happened the robots must have replaced a destroyed train with an existing train out of the network and that faster that I could run with four exoskeletons. But I wondered if they filled it too. Normally a builded train wouln't have any fuel (but perhaps it was only the train on the backside)
  • I saw a swarm of biters running right through the two copper fields in the south heading directly to the last builded iron field. Ah nature, your wildlife is so wonderful :D

I'm so stupid. I missed it, cause I though it will be on Sunday, changed even the entry on the wiki news-page like so. I hope nobody says now he missed it too, cause he read it in the wiki... :oops: :roll:

Will there be a copy of this last episode anywhere anytime?
