Neato. I've always loved those upside-down refueling towers/docks/etc.

Nu FtD update just came in, radar shit is on, it's inside the AI tab. New radar things are:

>Acoustic sensor
It hears incoming things.
>General purpose processing card
The more of these you have, the more information you can process
>IR Camera
It's like the cameras we had until know, but these one detects heat
>LUA Snooper
Detects if enemy shit is using LUA Boxes based on it's reaction times
>Passive Radar
Detects enemy active radars and locates them
>Passive Sonar
Detects enemy active sonars and locates them
>Sonar
Pings and detects enemy boats, subs and other underwater shit
>Tracking computer
It's like the AI mainframe of the detection systems
>Wireless snoopers
Detects enemy wireless comunications and uses them to download dolphin porn
>Radar system (the old radar block)
Detects shit above the water if it has a direct line of sight
>Retroflection sensor (360 degrees) (the old laser radar thingy)
It does the same as before, but they can't detect you when you use it, unlike sonars
>Tracker (laser)
It does the same as before, it's a laser rangefinder

>Pic not related
I got bored and continued my work in whomp's fortress

Forgot to mention that the old cameras, if given AI mainframe connection, will give automatic detection of targets

In editor, on top of being able to see heat visibility, you can now cycle all the detection ranges like visible, radar, sonar and wireless snoop.

>CLANG is now /a/ meme representing shitty 3dcg and especially model clipping
How does that make you feel?

Time for war, they disgrace His name.

Fucking unoriginal retards

REEEEEEEEE

>what has the probe seen? lots of sand?

Why are the planets in our fucking solar system not common knowledge???

In 6thform (I guess it would be high school for yanks) some bimbo thought every star was a planet.

Did you actually expect a bimbo to know something not cock related?

>think I'm done with resource production
>only have to make magazines and I'm done with the objective
>each magazine takes 1 steel and I need 2500 of them
>no iron left
MOTHERFUCKER.

science

im going to switch to 3-3-6 next though because 6-6-12 is way too fast.

I didn't expect much from women.
I certainly started expecting less from then on.

Heretics.
Oops

follow the northern broken down train tracks over the rainbow to find the pot of gold iron

>loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooops

user, you are the best.

UNLIMITED POWER WORKS

Is gun-gineering a thing anywhere?

I literally had 700 MW of raw power from solars alone. And that was before I decided to screw this shit and go atomic
You aint big, mate

dum trug ged :D

all the science packs stay in their lane so typical
>LOOPS
problems do not apply

the purpose of the loops is that they provide a buffer for odd costed techs like Military 3 and Power Armor 2, and all the rails.

Pic: science 3-3-6 ive been working on

>bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzt

you probably could haul the iron in your car but id recommend trying the trains. its a good tutorial on using them

chests are better at buffering than belt loops and take less space
hell, even leaving space between research centres and science pot production for the sake of expandability is better at buffering

Too late, I set up a conveyor because I'm just so done with this level at this point. Everything sucks and is optimized.

>mfw seeing almost adults "teens" driving to highschool in america
>highschool
>cars
>adults

> The detection equipment is no longer locked in the inventory. I'll be posting a "detection- how to" soon so that developers and KOTL can start pre-empting the detection stuff.
The ruining of FtD begins.

Why?

I can't wait for human drivers to be a thing of the past.

Glass angle blocks need to be a thing. Corner blocks would be nice too.

Because Nick has demonstrated over the last few updates that he has a fetish for critically important but highly fragile parts that have to be mounted in vulnerable external locations.
This adds a fuckton of such parts, and instead of just being needed to not die to lasers/missiles/CRAMS they're going to be needed to shoot.

I asfuckingsure you, there will be a period before he unfucks himself wherein the most common outcome of a fight will be both ships steaming off blindly into the distance because they each destroyed the others detection gear in the first few salvos.

>begins
Sempai...

Surely there must be another game with rotors like spengies?

Machinecraft is not a game.
Shitmechanic is shit.

Why is machinecraft not a game friendo?

is this how you crossthread link? I dunno.

>Russia
>train station

>Yeah I recognized that. But what does it have to do with goannas and why doesn't this pic show up in google?
Nothing to do with goannas, just some drunk Russians attempt to weld a fence together out of whatever they could find. Very vaguely engineering related.
Doesn't show up in google because this is the first time it's been posted :^)

It's just a sandbox.

It is nice to show off your cool thing and look at other people's cool things but that is it.

Most of them are either japs or ruskis so the chat is just full of runes.

it's a tech demo with a showroom where people can circle jerk and show off their pretty machines :^)

So wait a minute. Corneroids, Space Engineers, Starmade, Avorion, From the Depths, Factorio, REM, Robocraft, Garry's Mod, Homebrew, Besiege, Infinifactory, Scrap Mechanic, GearBlocks are also not games?

Or have you newfags not played any of Machinecraft's gamemodes apart from autism meeting?

Some autists separate "toys" and simulators from games, with games having goal or win/lose state by design.

Ah good so Machinecraft is a game then.

Apparantly it even has a singleplayer mode now.
youtube.com/watch?v=uNHoz-8VU_o

You know damn well why, Bob.

A goal is optional, but a win lose state literally defines a game.

>6-6-12

If those shitty extra modes that don't seem to work are the actual game then mahcinecraft is a steaming pile.

>newfag
sigh

>litterally

can I go redo school
my first run was only on beta firmware

>wake up
>still no REM podcast or demo

I haven't been on this thread since Starmade got planets
What is the space shootan game now?

the ded reins eternal.

been almost 24 hours and it's still not released?
no wonder that retard has no donations yet

>yaw too hard

>rotors die

no space shootan game
starmade is lost in space
SE is clanged into unplayability
Avorion is the new hotness but it's not even in existence yet
FTD is the game and that's pretty much all botes but it's what we've got

My map is turning red.

I feel I should be concerned.

what are you, an elf

How do i get back into FTD? last time i played the newer cannon system with bullets was added

>all desert
>no trees
hope u finish that objective soon user cuz they certainly will find you

>realistic flight module is literally no fun allowed
is there any advantage to using it over classical backflip and barrel roll flight module

The red tint means pollution, which means when it hits the alien's nest, thats when they start to agro

you can still have fun in advanced flight

in the difficulty options you can turn off stress damage.

In advanced flight, you can make much harder landings without exploding, and you have more control. It's also much easier to autorotate

I finished the REMo and getting it ready, download link, putting on the website, readme, etc. And muzzled was working on the REMcast and SoG, but he fell asleep at his keyboard...

I think you can make rolling landings way easier too?
seems like it only has real niche uses and is way too fragile

Only a thousand more magazines to go. Joy.

Noted. Any way to get rid of pollution?

Not really. You kinda just have to use more eco stuff like solar panels and accumlators, but the power output is pretty low. I guess save up to make a solar farm.

you can't directly get rid of pollution per-se, but certain objects on the map and turfs absorb it

most notably each tree takes in a bit of it which is why its more beneficial to have trees around if you don't want the ayys to smell your industry. Grass tiles help a little and water tiles consume a ton so its difficult for pollution to float over bigger waterways. Bug bases also notably take in a fucking ton of pollution I think in an effort to prevent it from spreading to multiple bases down the same lane to encourage you to take out close bases that attacks are constantly coming from.

FTD?

From The Depths
make boats and other vehicles out of blocks
make big engines and big guns and big missiles and big lasers

Avorion WAS the new hotness

Okay guys, it's up.

Anyone mirin my Galaxy-inspired build? Pretty comfy inside :^)

Front side

Remanon Spy,

Nobody mirin :

it's qt.
But you should understand just how ded /egg/ is.

it looks alright

spengies is just so shit I don't really care

Reminds me of the Pelican from Halo. Hook a vehicle to the back.

Not Russian enough.

Oh no we ded again, welp might as well post the other 2 pics

Is scrap engineer worth it?
Considering that it SEEMS to have :

>A degree of actual engineering
>Multiplayer
>Graphics

CUTE

...

No.

The engineering is extremely basic and does not involve any problem-solving to accomplish set objectives.
The multiplayer might as well not exist given the horrible netcode.
The graphics are iffy at best, and there's no components that allow for aesthetically pleasing creations.

It would've been better during the sale. At the moment, I can't justify recommending it for $20USD.

But I've got over 100 hours on record so I'd say it's good.
