Doesnt matter how good of a cpu you have, after the savefile reaches 50-70mb you will get FPS lag. No other way around it.

No prob) Radars are really handy if you have a larger base, to track train movement and vehicle locations.

Any sort of map limitation essentially makes it just a custom version of starcraft with poor fighting mechanics, imho.

What I mean is, since the map is unlimited, letting the AI go free could result in 2 things - either it goes full offensive and builds the entire map over, not leaving the player time to play "relaxed". It would lead to the problem which happens at turn 100-150 in civilization games - eith...

Imho, if playing against an AI, the AI should have predetermined spawn placing and predetrmined base size - some sort like Starcraft AI. It would fortify itself over a specific locations with very rich resourse fields, and send waves after the players. The longer you take not searching for these set...

i7 4770k running at 4 Ghz here, there is no difference even if I set the amount of threads to 8. Ingame limitations, duh.

Можно внятно объяснить, что мод добавляет?
Кроме цирка с увеличенным спауном?

Vehicles are onlz displayed in "observed" sectors - in the square around you, or in the squares of the locators.

You basically have the stack insertion bonus, reduce consumption by inserters, and also make the setup more compact than it could be if you place cables on belts.

I personally see nothing wrong with having the possibility of paid mods. The money could motivate some the modders to make very special products. As long as the mods can be also for free as before. What I find wrong is the steam getting 75%. I guess I already told that we are not planning to use th...

Oh well, it depends really. I always build solid boxes and fortified stations. The idea of empty, spaced out defense line which is only working because of the limited AI of the attacker is uncomfortable for me.

Damn, "behtesda providing great modding support"? MOre like bethesda can't get its shit together since fo3 and modders have to correct and replace and polish the shit bethesda is too lazy to do for free. And now, we will get an era of paid mods? SHit, DLC and preorder I can understand in s...

Dude, zou have either something wrong with zour setup, or an extremelz large map. It|s impossible to get such performance with factorio on that CPU unless you have a month of gameplaz in one savefile. Well, the word "large" is rather subjective, so i'll just link you my map lol its a olde...

0_o that's one way of looking at minecraft crafting system here

I can also imagine that laser "projectiles" could miss fast targets - so at some point, massing laser is not efficient anymore, but a combo of laser + gun deals with all thinkable biter attack force composition - laser turrets for the long-ranged spitters and the bigger, slower biters, and...

That's a fun intepretation of the system, I love it

Well then, ssilk, i know you have solid experience in factorio, I think I am going to enjoy the discussion with you. Can you suggest a situation, where the said setup would actually be useful, and not just a justification of existance? The turrets have no priority setup, so you can not use gun turre...

I think that issue is as old as there are laser turrets existing. IMHO, that IS and issue, since since the laser turrets were added, I just Ignore biters attacks and deal with them manually while I rush for lasers. The gun turrets right now have sadly no place in my base, while the idea of deliverin...

Same here.
