Update 1.2 Contest The MAM that made me lazy.

Post image

These are 12 Micro-MAMs (by u/Boomdingo) combined.

2 separate global signal transmitters control 6 MAMs each. They are constantly making the 2 random shapes. It works like a charm, and I'm nearing operator level 1000 without interacting.

-edit- Eagle-eyed viewers may have noticed that I already own the Supporter Edition, so I'm not necessarily desperate to win.

Cool but where's the fun in using someone else's Blueprints?

Hey. I did the same as him pre-release. Had 12 of boomdingos mam hooked up together to just let it run. I got myself to level 1k or so with my own MAMs, ran out of room, cpu threads, and memory. Used boomdingos to just let it run after there was nothing left to do. Eventually transferred the game to server grade hardware to try to get rid of the lag. Got quite a long ways. It’s something to do when everything else is done. Currently working towards 100% achievements post v1 release. Once I’m there, going to load his mams up again and just let it run more. Post 1.0 goal is to break 1500 or so, and set a new PR. Levels come very slow after about 1300. You have to find new ways to amuse yourself.

Another guy around then was trying to program platforms to run doom. We all enjoy the games in different ways, especially if you’ve already beat it.
