Thanks for the mod. I actually included a yield increase in my mod as well (since it fosters trains). However, yielding 200 straight rails is decreasing the rail cost to 1/100th. I think this is pretty heavy. In my own version I changed the yield to 20, which I already find to be on the verge to too...

What I'm really going with this whole discussion is, that the current handling of energy is in the long term boring, after you get solar. Steam engines are much more appealing. :) And here is where the crucial point. It is boring in a low-maintenance sense. For a game about automation, I do not see...

Why is this shot down so quickly? If the OP really encountered the observed behavior, then it is a bug. When you die in MP, you lose all your stuff (unless modded), but the factory should not be affected at all. Either your factory consumed everything from the chests (to assemble the items) or you e...

Great idea. I was also fiddling with RSO once to get the same result (rare patches with small endless resources), and I like what you're doing. There's two thing this mod lacks though - make those patches somewhat smaller, twice at least; and second - add support for mod ores. That's the priority #...

Hi,
thanks for the mod.

How does it compare to a small pump + circuit?

@keyboardhack: I believe that your statements are very true for megabases. Only for megabases though and I would vote not to balance for megabases. If any balancing makes creating megabases annoying, this can easily be fixed by a mod. @ssilk: I still do not think that this is a good solution. Making...

No, not yet. It is planned for the next release though.

There are 2 separate mods which are dedicated to that (on is UpGrade, the other's name I do not recall).

I am absolutely against this suggestion, sorry. You are suggesting to introduce an annoyance (as you say yourself), to discourage a playstyle you personally deem unbalanced. Yes, solar power is rather easy to handle. It is, however, challenging to get there and to automate its production so you actu...

psychobarge wrote:Hi and thx for your mod,

I've tried it and so far i think it is a great alternative to RSO. For me the first map generated with train outpost was playable and well balanced

Thank you for the kind feedback.

I think the visuals are fine, keep up the good work!

I will definitely try this, great idea!

What's the bug? it looks like the pole got placed?

Just a curious question: is this a design from the editor? Usually, one does not have access to express belts before some serious science automation

This error was due to the changes in the modding API, which required many mods to be adjusted

I honestly think you should not address this here, since you are using turrets from a mod. If the turrets from the mod are too strong, clearly this is something the mod should address, not the main game. I use all bobs mods, so enemies mod balancing warfare mod, so if i turn of this mod balancing w...

Happy Birthday and thanks for the update!

interesting... my bad then

it is probably the wrong section, but I am sure a moderator will take care of it.

Most mods are working for 12.18. To name a few:
- FARL
- TrainOutposts (disclaimer: my own mod)
- RailTanker
- UpGrade
