Changing their resistance types dynamically would require a whole new logic system to be added to the game. An easier solution would be to simply add laser resistance to the biters. Well that new logic is not something big. Just every time a biter dies add 1 to a counter and every five minutes lase...

In Polish it's "Podajnik" - "подавач" in Bulgarian I guess, because it sounds very familiar :) . Technically that is correct (as correct as made up words using the rules of the language goes), but it doesn't sound good. I decided to go with mechanical arm (механична ръка) becaus...

OK, thanks. I put the file with the formula in the original post (I gave you credit of course). I hope that's ok?

The link you provided is a picture, not an Excel file :) ... And you're not a nerd, just a Factorio player :mrgreen: Edited. Wrong copy/paste. And, man, you should have seen how many graphs I made for a extracurricular math assignment just for fun (and a small sum of money as a reward). And it was ...

I made a separate topic because it is not about the turrets, but about the evolution but it is strongly related so I suggest checking it out.

I know this is addressed in other places, but I wanted to make a separate topic because this is a different approach at looking at the problem. So a lot of people are complaining about laser and gun turrets (and are right, gun turrets need researches to boost them). But there is also the fact that B...

I was not sure whether I should put this in Balancing or Suggestions. So there is late game and late late game. Late game is like where is rocket defense now. But after you research everything there is no use for the labs; consequently there is no use for a big part of your factory. I propose this: ...

Yeah, I was thinking about robo-arm. But I am not quite sure because that makes it sound too advanced and it is like the most basic thing you have.

Almost all -er words don't translate well in Bulgarian. And crane suggests something much bigger.

So I started translating to Bulgarian yesterday and I'm at about 30%. I have translated a few of the smaller files and base.ini but I have a problem I can't translate inserter and it is a main part of the game. I can translate it literally but it sounds bad and also the word for insert is not used t...

The things I consider as useless (for my play style) : Basic modular armor (always go for the MK1 directly) personal solar panel If you're short on alien artifacts, then your only choice is to use these. They're not useless in and of themselves, just situationally useful. The personal solar panels ...

I don't want to get technical (well actually I do), but that is not a tree and neither is the Civ 5 tech "tree". This is a DAG - Directed Acyclic Graph. Directed because the connections have direction - they are one way. Acyclic because there are no cycles - loops. And Graph because well i...

I think you should change it to here.

Don't get me wrong I am super excited about the part of the game in space. But does that mean that you are ditching the idea of a self replicating factories on the ground and stopping to improve the early, mid and sort of late(before the space things) game for example stuff like extending the early ...

I agree I think it should take longer. I mean imagine some big server with a lot of players there could be a coal age and not every new player joins, plays for 10 minutes, and he has electricity.
