The fact that they widened the planet should also make a moo farm more practical (more sunlight exposure for grass) if you want to use that to get natural gas (though sour gas boiler would be the better source). I have not gotten far enough to colonize the planet on a save that had working gassy mooteors, but I really want to make the planet into a natural gas factory with maybe one dupe maintaining it all. It's especially appealing now that there's a guaranteed chlorine vent (Thank you for that, Klei!) I like to consider it one of my big goals in Spaced Out, alongside many other big goals on other planets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In horizontal setups you guys did a great job in making it so platforms link together so ports can feed multiple platforms (made even better by the filters you just put in). That seems to promote building a bunch of platforms in series connected to a set of loading and unloading ports all linked together. The problem then comes up that linked platforms leave no room between them for a gantry to work. Would it be possible to make a spacer building that maintained a link between platforms (or ports) but would let you build out the space between all these buildings? Ex: take a port building, remove it's functionality, but keep its behaviour, and reduce it's size to 1wide x 2 tall. That would let you build out the space between platforms (or ports) as you see fit. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
syrae Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 is it just me or did the game becom incredibly laggy with the last update? I thought it was just because I started a big terra map for the first time but my saves on marshy planet and forest planet are slowed down too. Its slowed down to the point of it being annoying to scroll down in the research screen because of all the lag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meaning no more silos, only horizontal placement Are you ignited yet ? Edited April 21, 2021 by babba Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klei NOOOOOOOOO I think we had the same situation at some point in the games development in the past, where stacked rocket launches did not work. Can you please allow launches through the platforms again, to allow stacked rocket launches ? @Ipsquiggle Edited April 21, 2021 by babba 3 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A platform connector (like a joint plate) creating a blank space between rocket ports, in order to let you place a ladder or fire pole, would be great. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Removing that issue for them by giving us a choice is probably for the best. I think the best improvement of this feature would be visible on the forum xD 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spkthed Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 They made the launch pad a platform now, which I guess makes sense it would block. OTOH, do you really need 8 rocket silo's now? One to three seem plenty now that they can be re-used by any rocket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume early on ill need probably around 2 maybe 3 in the mid game, I might be able to lower that when I get rockets that can be taller, but then I will also need more for shipping/traveling to and from other planetoids Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spkthed Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 Yeah, there is room to do a ton, it just means reduced solar for spaced out maps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, this is normally countered by some forumistas with "Why so much power ? You don`t need so much power". I hope we someday get 100k,200k and 500k power lines in the game. My suggestion in the past was to have the small ones on wood poles and that the big ones take a lot of space, need steel stands,plastic+advanced metals for construction. Also I would find some intergalactic microwave power distribution hub nice, to create an galaxy wide power network. There is so many different ways to play and people have so many different interests in this game, its nice Here is a little list of possible player styles and player factions, my name ideas... - The Sandboxers ( sandbox mode ) - The Survivalists ( survival mode ) - The Decorators ( base and rocket interior deco`s ) - The Contraptors ( building contraptions ) - The Tamers ( critters ) - Green Thumbs ( planters ) - The Logistic Handlers - The Industrialists - The Rocketeers - The Cherno Faction - The Chillouters - The Gulag Commanders - The Optimizers - The Puzzlers - The Automizers - The Chemistry Experimenters - The Maximum-Everything Guys - The Diggers, Wire and Pipe Layers - The Big Base Installers - The Explorers - The Item Collectors - The Caretakers / Dupe Lovers - The Doodlers - The Noobs etc. One can be anything or focus/specialize on some things, so much to do Edited April 21, 2021 by babba 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
