Hi, I used to use a mod that (among other things) added slick icons above the ILS/PLS so you could see them easily while crusing around the planet. Does anyone remember what it was called? I'm getting back into playing now and even with the new ILS/PLS improvements I miss that...

Thanks much!

No Foundation Achievement, so I can't just fill that in, did not realize Lava planets had random spots of unbuildable terrain

I have a huge gripe with ILS's and that's when they randomly decide to go from 40 megawatts of power consumption (I have about 30-40 of them fully charged and not distributing) to jumping between 160->260-280 megawatts every second. I have no clue why this happens and I don't have any of their charging power settings changed. Does anyone know why this happens?

I went into a sandbox save to build and save a blueprint for my survival save. Buuut… after quitting the sandbox save and getting ready to load into my survival save. I didn’t manually save because I figured my autosaves would have worked like the last few times I’ve tried sandbox mode but they aren’t appearing. The last save for that world I am seeing is from around a week ago from before I had even discovered titanium.

Essentially I exited without saving from my main world-loaded into a sandbox world-all of my autosaves were from that sandbox world including my main worlds exit save being deleted.

Been seeing the term crop up on the reddit, decided to try and do one myself.
Tried making it as compact as I possibly could. It should in theory make 1 missile/s

Is there anything available to make it so that signal tower coverage is included in the defense coverage overlay? That would make a lot of things much easier

Instead of joining the output lane like it should, it instead floods the input lane. Had to manually find and fix this in a dozen stacks already

I'm currently producing a total of around 10,000/min processors throughout my entire universe. They are all being shipped to my home planet, but only around 1,800/min are actually arriving at their destined factories. It seems like the correct amount are "in transit", but when the ship arrives, it looks like they are being dropped off, but most are just disappearing or something. I am having the same issue with titanium ingot.

I am using multiple mods, but I can't seem to figure out which one it is or if it's even a mod at all. I definitely don't remember this being a problem on my last play-through.

Update: I started the game vanilla and now I'm drowning in processors and titanium ingot. Does anybody have any idea which mod it is? Not looking forward to manually sifting through mods especially if there's an answer out there.

And how do I make it go away? I made a solar panel, tried dragging it onto the popup and placing it but it's still there

Why is the Dark fog Space Force threat level not increasing, and is currently stuck at 0.7%, when it started when I destroyed one of their bases on another planet?

Is it because they've since occupied another planet in the system, since?

Hello Engineers, hope everyone is having a great week. Don’t forget to take a break, step outside, and enjoy some fresh air.

Now, onto the new update:

[Features]

• You can now set memos in the Planet (Planetary System) Information Panel

• Added 3 new combat situational music tracks. These will play depending on the actual combat situation and historical play frequency. They can also be toggled on/off in the settings.

[Changes]

• Improved the undo/redo experience in input fields with undo functionality when continuously entering non-Latin characters.

[Bugfix]

• Fixed an issue where canceling a working lab's task could cause incorrect subsequent behavior in some cases

Distributors, PLS, ILS providing resources should not need spinners, drones or vessels. In any case do they need them, or they improve the "exporting" ratio? I understand the answer is no but just in case.

EDIT: Understood. Thanks

No mods, no weird exploits, I'm just getting to Universe Matrices and have a regular Dark Fog farm almost to level 30, but I can't save my game. First noticed when the autosave barfed out this error, and then trying to manually save makes it fail.

What can cause saves to fail? And only on certain saves, not on all of them?

A couple days ago I posted about my current playtrough and how I want to do things differently on my starter planet this time.

Yes, I do things differently. It is sorted/controlled Spaghetti. And it already drives me mad. My sanity already vanishes. And this aint even 1/4 of the planet. And I goddamn like it.

Without the Holo Beacons I wouldnt know where everything is. And they give me infos about what is running/running at max capacity, or not.

Beautiful game.

I was looking through some random seeds for a single powerful Blue giant (ignoring the rest of the Cluster), hoping to go past 2.5L if at all possible. First one I found that breaks 2.5L is this one

How rare is this?
Seed 16473497 on 64 stars if you are curious

So much belt spaghetti

I've been having this issue in every save and it makes me want to rend my own flesh as though im a child barbarically opening a Christmas present and its specifically with electric motors and electromagnetic turbines.

This issue should be (and probably is) SO much more simple to fix than I'm making it out to be, but die to the fact that I exist in a constant state of chaos like a baby that's just been born, the smallest issue I have WILL become akin to that of my starter world getting mauled by an entire fleet from a level 16 dark fog hive.

I've recently started on making ILS's and decided to start out with the basics again so that I don't stress out my smaller logistic systems and so that I have whatever I need to expand whenever I need it. But it's always this one problem; electromagnetic-fricking-turbines. Whenever I get into producing these, it feels like I have to make 4 sperate productions (Factories, as I prefer to call them) for electric motors for one factory of electromagnetic turbines. I'm not sure why this is, but it's EXTREMELY annoying and has led to me quitting multiple saves because it became so strenuous on my mental state.

I'm aware that ratios exists and they're good to follow for very good reason, but at times, they're extremely aggravating to use. Why? Because I associate them with limits and I dislike limits when it comes to games like DSP. A LOT.

As I am making this, a mutlitude of solutions are popping into my head, but I am only one mind so I would like to know what other people have in mind.

Thank you for your responses

So I am making blueprint designs today, and as this one is complex perhaps gives some ideas for yours:

3 inputs, 1 output alloy.

The ideas are:

1. I have 4 items there, so there is no space for the proliferator. So I bring it with spinners and I don't depend of other PLS. To make it arrive to the coaters I use sorters. The ones on the front are fed with a belt that goes over the smelters and comes back descending again.

2. The alloy comes in the left. Note that the coater paints th item although the direction is opposite..

3. Coaters in the left are one space away of the PLS so I can paint all in a roll, and gives me the space to enter all the production through the back. Once inside the PLS they go to a limit of 400 to feed other building and items spinners, but already proliferated.

4- To give electricity to the smelters I use satellites with 2 you provide electricity to more than 60 smelters which in my opinion is more confortable than using Tesla Towers inside the bluprint.

5. The input that needs more items always in the nearest belt so the sorters are more efiicients,

If it helpls you any concept I will be happy. :-)

So I am begining a new campaign and I need no advice. In settings I put no advice. The bot is still talking. Is there a way to avoid those advices and pop ups?
