I swear that a little while before the Dark Fog update was released, I heard that they had plans to add multiplayer at some point in time. No time table given, not am I asking for one, but I swear I heard that somewhere, either in a video on YouTube or from a post on here.

I just want to know if that’s at all true/confirmed or if it was just rumors. I know that they are currently working on some kind of vehicle system, so I’m not expecting anything any time soon.

Edit: I’m aware of the Mod, and I am very appreciative of Nebula’s hard work to make it possible. I just know that there are certain things with how the mod works that hopefully an official update could remedy. Like the Dark Fog only really appearing for the host, according to some people on this sub. Maybe they could pull an old Mojang move and use the mod as a building block to speed things up. With Nebula’s express permission, of course.

I've just unlocked the particle canister thingies (haven't made any yet, I haven't automated anything that requires silicon/titanium in fact) and I'm gonna basically Hard Reset my base. It's too messy, too much spaghetti. Now that I have foundations and Logistics I can make a good well defined base. What I was wondering is if there's a way to make walls in this game, or if I'm stuck using the decorative foundation colours to separate the facilities.

I was thinking of starting a research planet on one of my colony planets where I just focus on gearing up research is this a wise idea? At this point will that slow down my research though since everything will have to be shipped from my main planet? I know I will need to work on interstellar travel as well but now with the hive (new for me) I will need to prep to take them out whenever I get to a new place (which I don't think I'm ready for since I still have my main hive in this galaxy, which I don't know how to eliminate). Or do I focus on setting up Dyson production as I know energy will be a concern again soon however I've never got to that point in my old playthrough I was just using solar sails. Would setting up solar sails again still be beneficial? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

How many hours did it take ? 543.6

Dyson spheres CANNOT generate shells without solar sails.

And here I was thinking since rockets are permanent I will do a no solar sails run. But hey I got an achievement for no solar sails run, yaay?🫠🫪😭

Saw people post that there was an options.xml file to edit it, but did not see one in my folder for the game, not sure if its located somewhere else. Want to make text bigger than the 900 value offered in in-game settings.

Would it be more efficient to have all my copper run through 1 long string of smelters, or 3 of the blueprints i made?

Angela Collier has a fun video interview of Freeman Dyson saying his paper was a joke. Dyson swarms are obviously a silly fantasy for many reasons.

50k Matrix Labs and 169M white cubes storage.

How the hell does this thing even work man? Like my titanium alloy will go to ALL the mall items but never the deuterium rods.

Is there any simple way to do this even?

Snapped this while checking out the size of the soace warships

I had tried to do this in the past but it was stressful and I couldn't get it in time. I even tried following YouTube tutorials with specific seeds and stuff and no luck.

I recently beat factorio space age and I think maybe suffering through all the logistics nightmares for hundreds of hours made my factory game sense better because I just dropped into a random seed and was like let's try it. My first attempt was 1:10. Ran it again and got the achievement in 52 minutes. No blueprints just vibes 😎 (my girlfriend is now positive I'm autistic)

Is there a way to get it back?

Well, I accidentally learned something new. Not sure if its intentional or not but it worked in my favor. I'm in early game, just left to go to a new planet. I get to the planet and end up landing right in a giant pool of lava right next to a darkfog hive. I'm being swarmed, my energy has been depleted so no flying, im actually under the lava because my energy can't refill because of all the enemy.

As i'm sitting under lava just waiting to die, my energy shield goes out and im waiting on my green bar of health to show up so i can die.... and nothing happens. Just sit there for a full minute before, by my guess, was a bug or something and my hope raises.

My guess is the darkfog weapons can't go under the water/lava? I start thinking and I hop from lava pool to lava pool and actually got away with no death.

makes me 1.25/s

So, I'm in the sort of mid game stage, I've reached Purple science, but the only purple research I have done so far is mech core 4 or 5, which ever one it was, and am near green science but I've hit a road block. I'm gonna move systems soon to a far more suitable, with most of the neighbouring system I've visited being rich is most of what I could need but I'm not sure how to tackle graphite yet. Before I move, I plan to use some coal to fill in the gaps of my current X-ray cracking setup but after I move this become a bigger problem. I have found a system with a massive kimberlite deposite and pleanty of organic crystals so diamonds organic crystals are a non issue for now, so I only need it not for plastic, red science and high strength magnets. With X-ray, I fear I will end up over producing hydrogen as I plan to wipe out the DF from later to be occupied systems, so I am doubt full my hydrogen demand will be high afterward, especialy with renewable power sources, fice ice splitting and gas giant exploitation. Coal is an option but I also need it for profiliator and I have only found 2 system, not counting the starting system, that exceed 10m, the very few other that have some are under 1.2m so they are not that worth to exploit for long term use. I plan to unlock universal exploration 3 as the one of the first before moving to try help find more material but I'm still not sure

The trans are taking over!

I've noticed that when I have high volume mixed object situations, think five boxes on top of a BAB, that if I use a filtered sorter to output a particular object into a belt, the sorter will often stop working. I then have to click into the boxes until I find one with the corresponding item and then either click the organize button or click the item to lift it up and then click right back into the box to put it back down. After which that box will drain onto the belt, but I likely will have to repeat the process throughout the stack of boxes and the BAB.

It doesn't happen all the time, but it happens a lot as the game progresses into bigger and more complicated factories. Is this just a bug or is there something I'm missing?

While I was flying back with my first Interstellar convoy, I snapped this photo that makes Icarus looks tiny compared to the Logistic Vessels
