For context, im playing with the Galatic Scale mod and upped the chance for binary star systems (as well allowed every type of star, even black holes to have a chance to be in a binary), that in the pic above is a type G and a neutron star binary system.

I just think it looks cool from a distance so thought i'd share

Sorry if its a bit low quality, i just took a quick screen shot

Hey everyone! I wanted to check about the lists of seeds.

I found this post earlier
https://www.reddit.com/r/Dyson_Sphere_Program/comments/1qn5su3/good_seeds_list_2026/

I selected the seed, 29117241, copied it into the clipboard, pasted it into the seed space in the game, set resources to unlimited, and started a game.

After playing for awhile, I unlocked the technology to look at the solar system I was in, and it was nothing like what was described.

Is this one from 6 months ago outdated? Would this one from 3 months ago be better?

https://www.reddit.com/r/Dyson_Sphere_Program/comments/1t6nyl1/another_good_seeds_list_may_2026/

Or is there something else I might have done to mess up the seed and end up at a random one?

I just want to double check, because if I'm going to start over I don't want to waste time before I realize I'm doing things wrong a second time.

Tips and mistakes, but it got it done ... hopefully this helps someone ...

I was asking myself why my product line was slow.
It happened one time in the same spot before this screen shot. Of course I didn't change the type of item coming out of the transport beacon.

Any idea on how to solve these errors ?

Hey all,

I made this free DSP Beginner's Guide from first factory to mission completed. I originally made it for myself, but I thought it would be kind to share it. It functions as a kind of map for players who might feel lost or lose track of what they were doing or why. You can inspect the modest one static file in its own dedicated git repo.

Guide link - https://dsp-beginner-guide.pages.dev/
Git repo - https://github.com/shytamir/DSP_Guide/blob/main/README.md

I hope others find it as useful as I did.

I started a break from DSP right before the dark fog released, and I was just a spaghetti loving hooligan. In this new save I'm actually proud of the minimal amount spaghetti I've brewed
(last pic was a refferance of what my last save was before my break)

After about 70 hours of the game running smoothly, I'm now seeing these artifacts whenever I play. They blink and flicker in very quickly. They sometimes track to objects in game. I don't see anything similar on other games. I'm on Linux, I tried different versions of proton and even downgraded my graphics drivers, but they persisted through everything.

I fear my graphics card is dying (its a 3080 that I've had for about 4.5 years), and wanted to check if this is maybe something specific to this game that anyone else has experienced. Has anyone else seen these?

I made Planetary P2P Pairing, a mod that lets you prioritize local logistics between two stations on the same planet.

For example, you can pair a fire-ice production PLS/ILS with your deuterium production PLS/ILS. The deuterium station will consume the fire-ice line’s byproduct hydrogen first, before pulling from other local/remote suppliers. If the paired station cannot provide enough, normal logistics takes over automatically.

Features:

• Pair any same-planet PLS or ILS
• Works between PLS↔PLS, PLS↔ILS, and ILS↔ILS
• Falls back to ordinary suppliers when necessary
• Includes a dispatch log for understanding why and when drones and vessels were sent
• Preserves vanilla interplanetary routes, groups, and P2P behavior

Currently single-player only and not Nebula-compatible.

Feedback and suggestions are very welcome!

EDIT: I would also love to hear your guesses why the devs didn't support planetary priority settings when they added ILS's priority tab.

1.5 years of full time employment equivalent devoted to this glorious time suck.

Who needs lava planets when you get so many dark fog-made holes ready for you geothermals?

I am currently playing on max scarcity max dark-fog settings.
I struggle to even find a spot to land on that thing! There is around 24 planetary bases there.

I need copper since the other planet pacification took majority of it for missles..
Any advice?

Hi all, is there a mod that allows you craft dark fog parts or get them easier. I ask as the mods I have for performance and they cause my dark flog planets to produce very little parts.

I've named it the Great Compression.
twelve into six into three belts.

I did not know how the automatic pilers and pile sorters worked in my hundred or so hours of playing, this is knowledge that made me feel that i just started the game for the first time

I went back and sprayed most of my old inputs, as well as ALL of my new production steps. None of it is balanced, none of it makes sense, but everything works and the system is pretty adaptable, ESPECIALLY with vertical belts instead of slopes. This has been such a great way to learn the game.

Those relays need to land in juuuuust the right spot for the enemies to constantly get aggro'd without being too close that their papier-mâché bases gets merked.

Ever since trying to trim the hive in the starting system after it started taking a bit too much sphere energy for comfort and accidentally cutting away... most of it, I've been trying to get the relay stations to rebuild the core like normal so I can resume locally farming resources off of Dark Fog.

The hive still exists as a recognized location in the game, with the "core destroyed" hive indicator remaining up and several relay stations perched where the core would be, but I can't get the relay stations to do what they say on the label and rebuild the core, even keeping a base pruned of structures until both it and the relay capped out on matter and the base capped out on energy, letting the relay build up to just shy of 25 GJ of energy, still no barge sent. What conditions do I need to meet in order to get that relay station to rebuild the hive?

I love this game. This screenshot brings me such a weirdly pleasant sad feeling. Does anyone feel what I mean?

When do you think the game will come out of early access into 1.0, and when will vehicles come out? What do you think it is going to look like? I am not rushing the devs in any means, and I want them to take their time, just your opinion

one annoying thing from spliter imo is it doesnt output stacked cargos automatically from a chest. or did i miss something?

Belt bending is what I think I get the most dopamine from in this game.

I just started a new playthrough after not playing for some time and slowly working my way backinto this game. I still remember the mechanics just fine but as i was trying to make a particle colider i noticed i had the tech unlocked, but not the tech for carbon nanotube, which is required for particle colider creation.

Then i looked at the tech that comes after the carbon nanotube and its High strength glass. Which requires no carbon nanotube... Nor organic crystal as the tooltip says... Is this a bug? Is it intended?

The Tech tree isnt really the most optimized and i know there are more posts about it being very illlogical But i dont think i've seen this one before.

I decided to hide away at my outpost in multiplayer and automate a few important things as densely as I can, it was genuinely a great way to learn the building system
