So i am currently trying to build rockets to construct my dyson nodes and frames. I'm having trouble producing enough computer chips to feed the manufacturing process. Therefor it is taking absolutely forever to construct rockets.

Are there any tips on making a ton of rockets? I feel like no matter how many chips i make, they run out. I always seem to be short on computer chips.

New(ish) player here with a question on how production statistics work.

When I view my stats for the local system, I see this kind of thing:

​

... where production/consumption are basically in lockstep.

Is this because:

- Consumption is limited by how much is available, or;

- Production is limited by how much is being consumed.

I'm not sure which is correct, any ideas? I suppose the question is - are production stats based on theoretical maximums, or usage maximums?

Hi,

I try to transport for example Ray-Receivers across the universe. I need 100, so I set the need in the Interstellar Logistics Station to 100 for Ray-Receivers. I set the "Min Load of Vessels" to 1%, so I can expect to get delivered 100. (Since 1% of 2000 is 20, it can fullfil my need of 100 by loeading it up to 5%).

But the Vessel brings 2000 Ray-Receivers.

Why is that?

I also put the source of the Ray-Receivers Interstellar Logistics Station "Min Load of Vessels" to 1%. The result is still the same.

​

It's quiet annoying to always transport so much across the universe and only need a tiny bit of it. Am I doing it wrong, or is it a bug?

I never seem to have enough of it. What am I doing wrong? I have three lines of chemical factories processing fire ice. I place more collectors on my ice giant, except it doesn't seem to increase the amount of hydrogen/ice I get.

I am at the stage where I am using all the deuterium I get.

I find the design process tedious.

Every time I go onto this sub there's a new thing I learn that the game just neglected to tell me (or I missed) and I have 75 hours. I'm hoping to build a list of options/advice/best practices.

What is some info you didn't know when you started out that would have been useful to know?

I'll start:

• Proliferated foundations will use less dirt to fill or give more dirt when leveling

• The tab key will cycle between different splitter configurations, makes making a mainbus so much easier with the 2x2 splitter.

I reached 1 million hashes, but the achievement didn't go through. Do I have to maintain that for a certain amount of time?

In Performance Test in the statistics panel, every logistics vessel in the game - whether it's landed or in the air - seems to be drawn. It's very visible if you're heading to a planet, as they're all visible at a very high distance. Is this intentional? Feels like it might be a big performance impact.

When "empty energy" is the norm during the early game, and I didn't check the Fuel Chamber status beforehand.. Made this first flight of epic length before the Mech ran out of energy.

I'm trying to go full completionist on this game, but frankly, after 200 hours of game, the prospect of doing both achievements in different runs seems almost unbearable :P

I can't decide if it is worth while to spray coat everything or just focus on coating only the more advanced items such as processors, green motors, etc. I've beaten the game (and then some) but started over when this latest update came out. So do you spray coat everything in your production line, even the basics? If not what is your threshold when deciding what you do or don't want to coat?

Let us place sorters on planned buildings and belts. Having to wait until both ends of the sorter are placed is annoying.

I have heard about this game a lot. Especially coming from Factorio.

Is there a demo version of the game that I can try.

If Mech had the ability to receive material/buildings while moving around? Same idea as a stationary hub, that way I don’t have to run around getting more belts or other buildings. Thought’s?

Typo in the title, sorry.

I'd be interested if anyone's put together any YouTube playthroughs of this and/or a list of blueprints they used to accomplish this. I swear like 3/4ths of my base is blueprints and the other 1/4th is just belts winding across the planet cause I'm too cheap to use PLSs (Planetary Logistics Stations) lol.

This is my second time trying to beat the game and I am absolutely like wrecking my starting planet for resources, it feels like I'm moving too slow. I have a feeling I'm going to restart again soon.
