Factorio
- A month in and still learning new things.
I only just discovered that efficiency modules work in biochambers to reduce nutrient cost! Such a game changer for Gleba.
- What do you transport from Vulcanus to Nauvis?
I landed on Vulcanus, setup a base so that I can launch rockets from there. Unlocked of course the drill and foundry. I could not kill a worm yet. I need more weapon upgrades from Nauvis.
My question is :
What do you transport from Vulcanus to Nauvis? only the drills, foundries and orange science?
- That feel when you're all pumped to make your steam powered spaceship, then find out the hard way acid naturalization to steam is disabled in space
Why.
Why can't my non-nuclear dreams not be memes.
- When do you travel to next planet?
my understanding is that you have no way back. thus your main base can be stuck or swarmed by biters.
is that true?

- Automate Backup of Factorio Saves
I found this Python script a few years ago, it is simple enough that a non-programmer could understand 90% of it. I just remembered it had been running as a scheduled task all this time when I thought I had lost some saves.
Thought I'd post it here in case anyone can use it. Minor things are hard coded but they are few and easy to edit.

Hello, Today we want to share some exciting news!
We plan to release Factorio: Space Age expansion on October 21st 2024. The reasoning for this date is that it will give us enough time after summer vacations to polish the release, while also leaving enough time afterwards if we need to do bugfix patches before the Christmas holidays.
The price of the Space age expansion will be $35.00, the same price as the current base game.
You can wishlist the game now over on Steam.
