NoEyedSquareGuy posted:180 GW Nuclear plant is complete and seems to be running at close to 100% efficiency after a few bits of troubleshooting with all waste being converted to plutonium fuel rods. Still not outputting max power since the plants are all supplied by a single manifold which will take a while to fill up, but after leaving it running while working on other projects for several hours it's steadily outputting between 160-175 GW. My god, it's beautiful...

I finally got to the point that I wanted to scour the map for hard drives and I've discovered that 1) the drat scanner still detects crash sites I've already visited and 2) there's no way to use the scanner from the exploration car.

It's not really a factory until you have a stack of conveyor belts 8 levels tall running from one end of the world to another. Bonus points if they don't all go i the same direction. More bonus points if you have a couple of belts in the middle doing nothing because you moved the machines feeding them somewhere else but you left the belts there 'just in case'.

I needed to set up an oscillator factory and decided I didn't want to belt the iron plates and cable and poo poo to where I found quartz because it's up on this big cliff. So I head to the quartz and do the resource ping and wow, there's a node super close but I bet's it's like a poor node or somethi... loving THREE pure iron nodes AND a pure copper node nearby! gently caress yes!!

A Moose posted:I immediately thought of the place where I did the same thing, on the side of that canyon in the north of the map. If it is the same place, there's also a coal node there, as well as some oil on the opposite side of the canyon. There's even some caterium not too far southeast. That place has everything! Oh loving sweet!

You know for a game where exploration is a big part of the play loop the exploration tools kinda suck. The vehicles don't let you use the scanner, the scanner's range is pretty limited and keeps picking up opened crash sites, the hostile mobs are a pain in the rear end, the weapons to deal with the mobs all suck, and with only one body slot you have to keep swapping between the "move at a decent speed" boots and "deal with the frankly absurd amount of poison gas on the map" mask.

The blade runners, gas mask, hazmat suit should just be upgrades you unlock.

Guess who's an idiot who just wasted 10 beacons trying to figure out why they weren't planting in the ground. Yeah it's the first time I've used them since the last update.

Yeah you're better off belting raw ore around than belting screws.

zoux posted:What tricks do you guys use to measure distance and stuff, from micro "I want all these rows 3 m apart" to macro stuff where you're lining up kms of belts? I start by building foundations under the first iron miner I build. Then I just extend that foundation network everywhere I go. Everywhere. Embrace grid.

It's always an incomplete upgrade somewhere.

Anyone else use a map editor not to import structures but to delete all the crates your own dumb rear end made while upgrading the belts in your factory?

I've finally reached the point where I'm going to tackle nuclear power for the first time. This is going to take some effort.

I'm nearly at the point where I feel alright bringing the nuclear reactors online. All I need to do it finish building the waste management system to turn the nuclear waste into plutonium that I can sink and then I'll good to go. To do that I just have to take the waste sulfuric acid from the top of the mountain where I'm making the encased uranium down a half a kilometer vertical drop, belt some silica from a cave through a an underwater passage, and run like a 10km pipe to the closest nitrogen gas... and then pipe the resulting waste water to a sloppy concrete plant and sink the concrete. Easy.
