pixaal posted:Because it was about a lot more than NGU for a very long time. Nothing else has been there to compete, the surge of new games was one of the reasons for making a new thread, which is the same reason the 2nd one was open when a bunch of new games came out ending the rein on the Real Grinder thread. I mean most of my posts were about realm grinder, I guess. I never got the UI hate for it but I also didn't play before the redesign

SynthesisAlpha posted:Everything's better with Plasmids (and some Phage). It's funny how the first run or two you're scrounging for everything, carefully balancing resources over expenditure (lookin' at you coal). It seems like spending plasmids on crispr is a trap but I'm only on my third civ

pixaal posted:Plasmid doesn't do anything at 500+Phage, you should never go below this. (I think it's actually 450+phage but rounding up to 500 makes math easier and you aren't going to spend that tightly anyway) what the gently caress is phage lmao

Rynoto posted:Yeah that's the most recent version aka stage three. The early game is all about hyper focusing single productions so turning off anything not needed in your specific building loop is essential. Later on you'll get upgrades and be able to create loops that are better at self-feeding. i can't even figure out the building loop to get both sand and steam sustainable, or more annoyingly, how to upgrade the things that would help! e- or when what i need to do is idle rather than tweak e2 - well now i'm sustaining successfully and i have no idea what happened Captain Foo fucked around with this message at 02:59 on Sep 2, 2019 |

Vil posted:Look at the recipes that would have made it, and see what they require (check both ingredients which are spent to produce, and catalysts where you need the bar to be X high). Now look at those things and see if either a. it's all being sent to something else or b. it's not being produced itself (in which case repeat from the beginning). yeah - one thing i realized is catalysts exist

Oodles posted:I somehow managed to get Earth first, and I’ve unlocked water and identified Fire. I need space to get Air. I have Earth and water sort of going down in the garden area but I think I need to divert to plastic or gently caress around with space? Or maybe look at my recipes and see if I can get the mixer upgraded

Oodles posted:What’s the required element for getting it to the next stage? Focus on getting that. If you need to have an aksplosion that’s fine, but make sure that you’re only making the essence and distilled element you need. That way it’s as efficient for you. PureEarth, I think. I definitely just made some other progress, but I'm not sure what it got me yet, lol
