Started playing this, good game, quick question: will the bugs ignore my powerlines and railroad tracks? They seem to destroy the turrets I've got set up along it but ignore the other two. And seeing as I'm setting the turrets up to protect them...

Playing stable if that matters.

I don't need a turret at every power line is what I'm hearing. Thanks!

Also, reading back through the thread and seeing y'alls discussion I guess I can speak up as a new player. I got through the stable oil stuff fine after I finally figured out what was important and that I didn't need to just keep attaching more storage tanks. Finally just started removing and deleting heavy oil tanks to get rid of it, lol

Should a train stop at this signal?
Yes: regular signal
No: the signal before should be a chain signal
This has been the simplest way I've heard it put and I now understand it, thanks

Did you get to fight them with flamethrowers though? That seems like it would be pretty cathartic.

Were you allowed to use flamethrowers on an industrial scale with no care for (and perhaps instead active malice) for your neighbors?

family has been keeping it encroaching for years by waiting till it dries in winter then torching that poo poo

doesn't kill it for good but keeps it claiming further land
