/egg/ - Engineering Games General - Formerly /svgg/

I hope you mean "how is that not just The Codex of Alchemical Engineering with the same skin", senpai.

It is just using nonsense symbols, I'd take chemistry over starsign bullshit any day.

>makes a free flash game called "The Magnum Opus Challenge"
>tries to sell a game with largely the same mechanics titled Opus Magnum
really makes you think.

>tumblrs explaining gender: the webm

>(((Zach)))tronics

...

B-but it's beautiful user.

Rate.

>and it's not even true /egg/.
here's where you are wrong
factorio, zachtronics and besiege were the reason /egg/ is /egg/ and not /svgg/ with /rcg/ reFUGees
zachtronics are fundamentally /egg/, from the embryo, through the shell, to the grill

From /k/

my magnus opus

He should challenge the ATF to a duel now since he's the one with a machine gun. He'd better armor his dogs first though.

>161 cycles

i'm an intellectual

I dun' get it.
Isn't this thing still semi-automatic?
Pulling the trigger always only causes one shot, it's just that the shot causes the trigger to be pulled again.

not only this is machinegun
the string alone, without the gun is a machinegun

Will I be shot at, if I enter a police station with such a string?

btw, I'm not black.

yes
then no

they would have to know you made it with the purpose of machinegunning

Here, have this instead

I'm going to be sorely disappointed if you didn't replace all graphics with grilled cheese and all sound with super amplified loud nigra.

I'm too tired to, user. Sorry. Maybe next time and after I replace my HDD that died.

but that's just the IGG release
probably full of replaced fucking assets because IGG is a fucking nigger cunt

WHERE THE FUCK IS QSWITCHED

nice

Eh? IGG replaces assets?

Beat my area.

>first fuse drone

Those rotations use up a bunch of unneeded area, a piston arm fixes that.

I'm really enjoying Factorio, reminds me more of Anno 1404 than anything else. And just like in that game my building layout is a mess.

m8, you'll need a metric shitton of gitting gud

Trying to go through the New Hope campaign. With the materials I have, I'm not sure what the hell this factory is doing or what half of these destroyed pieces were. I was able to get the boiler/steam engine set up, as well as the two mining spots.

ded

s-source? for s-science ofcourse

seems like smelting followed by some assemblers?
it's all up to you really, just try to replace the wreckages fast if you want to go by it, you know those despawn

>Pulling the trigger always only causes one shot, it's just that the shot causes the trigger to be pulled again.
I.E., fully automatic.

>ARE YOU GOING TO OUTLAW STRING?

People who think they're going to stop the military if they turn on us because they bought a high powered assault rifle for "hunting" have a dangerous psychosis deep inside their brains.

I'm having a lot of fun with the Helicopter mod of Factorio.
Without it I would have had no idea what to do with the missiles.
(no really, what are you supposed to do with the missiles when you have to be close and immobile to use them? The splash damage is dangerous enough)
I have now high hope for nuclear missiles fired by an helicopter.

It almost make me forget there's is no combat train yet.

But it's still one shot per pull, isn't that the very definition of semi-auto?
Maybe I'm a physician.

>But it's still one shot per pull
No

>and don't forget the most important intermediary step of every process, moving shit around a long way on lots of separate belts

I think you've got a pretty firm grasp on the basics, onii-chan.

lmao
If they can't stop a couple thousand illiterate goat fuckers from pushing our shit in how the fuck are they gonna stop 100,000+ rednecks who know EXACTLY which substations to carbomb to turn off the power to 65% of the US?

1) Most of the population is against those redneck and will rat you out without a second thought
2) Those goatfuckers are used to a hard life, hiking, chasing goats, fetching water, etc. Plus religious fervor.
3) Boiled frog. That's all.

Speaking of fucking up infrastructure

Civilians don't have to be able to kill the military.
The weapons are just there to force the government to act.

Scenario:
The government passes some abso-fucking-lutely tyrannical laws that are just plainly bad like kill your first-born to appease some spacelizard overlords.
Wat do?

Do you A:
Protest with flowers and hugs, being no threat whatsoever to the government, meaning that they basically have to do nothing else than threatening to use force on you should you not follow these laws?

Or do you B:
Because the population is armed, they are an actual threat to the government, which now is forced to take action, either bend to the will of the people or start murdering them.
Do you really think the army will go along with the latter without a sizeable chunk defecting, and lookie what happened, suddenly there are planes, tanks and lots of DAKKA on the civillian side.

But it's still one shot per pull.
Please show me the bit where it says that the trigger has to be pulled by a human.

>spark gap
Doesn't that end up being ineffective due to spreading itself over a large amount of frequencies?

La-fucking-mao
The US military itself seems to think differently, if you think they don't actively plan for these kinds of things you'd be completely wrong. The US federal forces, by their own estimation, would be fighting at a maximum of 50% effectiveness.

Please post the domestic RedFor planner and "Warlord Tom". In case you don't have those, I'll post the bulletpoints.
-US Infrastructure is incredibly fragile and completely unguarded, requiring a minimum of three people to disable utilities for vast swathes of the US.
-Prisons are incredibly attractive targets for rebels as emptying one effectively paralyzes the state.
-The US Military itself expects a pandemic of desertions and sabotage.
-It also expects significant foreign support of rebels by anyone who does not like NATO. Russia is nearly guaranteed.
-The country is full of huge, really bad choke points. Most of them deep in areas that would be solidly against Washington.
-If you thought Timothy McVeigh did a lot of damage on his own, imagine 10 of him. Or 100. Or 1,000. And that's not even that many people.

>But it's still one shot per pull.
No it isn't. You pull that ring and it shoots until you let go.

Here's the warlord tom one.

Guess who's going to barely blink seamlessly transferring command to the 45% that still has power and telecom reception?

Americans get used to hearing about our boys not having much luck trying to "liberate" people who think they're the slaves of Allah, so they forgot how brutally effective our military is against relatively sane opponents. While rednecks don't seem like particularly sane when it comes to gun control, they aren't stupid to the point of lacking a drive for self-preservation. After the first few little "strongholds" they set up get rolled in whatever deluded scenario involving Americans fighting American soldiers, they'll find ways to justify a grumpy surrender while pretending they actually won because muh values.

>Guess who's going to barely blink seamlessly transferring command to the 45% that still has power and telecom reception?
Not the people on the ground actually doing shit.

Those are worst case scenarios though.

>You pull that ring and it shoots until you let go.
But the trigger itself is pulled once for every shot afterwards by the string.
IT IS STILL ONE SHOT PER TRIGGER PULL.

Your point being? If it gets to the point an entire widespread resistance kicks off that necessitates military intervention, everything's fucked.

The ring is now the trigger, fuckwit. Build it, show the ATF you have it, and try not to cry when they split your anus wide the fuck open.

The string is now the trigger

>I know this for a fact because the survivalist handbook I bought online that Uncle Sam didn't want you know about said so. It's the same one used by Russian intelligence agents, so you know it's legit!

I wonder if anyone would stand to gain anything if Americans were stockpiling weapons and were ready to decide the government has collapsed and the new despotic world order has begun at the slightest sign of major trouble.

Ayyyyyy I'm in that pic.

Are you by any chance the handsome fellow on the left?

Explain to me how the local PD is going to arrest anyone with no power. Explain to me how the national guard is going to enforce literally fucking anything when everything they do is run on the genny. You are seriously underestimating how fucking hard taking out the grid fucks the government, while nearly not impeding the efforts of resistance groups at all. You don't need much electricity to manufacture PRIGs and EFPs. You need massive amounts to effectively maintain rule of law.

I think I'm retarded.

He's the nog.

Stop making it look fun

Nope I'm the guy in the far ground, right behind the guy on the left and the guy with the SAW. I became the SAW guy a week after this pi was taken, more or less. The black guy got kicked out a year after this pic.

You should have lied, you look like enough of a goober that I actually believe that's you.

Your head is kinda egg shaped almost, no wonder you're an /egg/man.

Do you have more histories like that?

Not him, but there is the significant problem that said resistance groups also rely on said infra that they just fucked up, all while having a next to non-existent logistical and communication network of their own, meaning that most resistence strongholds could be destroyed piecemeal by even a theoretically inferior force, plus there is the siginificant issue that USA would naturally give priority to key territories and logistical nodes at first rather than spread itself ultra thin across the country, plus most transitions into an authoritarian regime tends to happen with the military spearheading the whole thing, rather than the civilian government.

I've got a lot of nice /k/ stuff, but not specifically stuff about rebellion I don't think.

...

You reminded me of this story.

>Oh no, please stop looting, rioting and murdering each other, we're having trouble dealing with you while you're not where absolute madmen who just want to watch the world burn and actual foreign agents are causing directed, concerning havoc.

This might shock and offend you, but a lot of the Pentagon's contingencies for shit going sideways on our home soil involve them just letting citizens running amok with weapons succumb to self-induced psychological trauma and mopping up the survivors after the blood orgy.

American military agencies prioritize the lives of private American citizens much higher than anything else (especially compared to many other military agencies around the world), but after a certain amount of shit has hit the fan, their own survival instincts kick in. They can't save anyone if they spread themselves too thin and dissolve.

I wish. I got out long before Monster Mastume aaime came out.

This is hilarious.
Reminds me of the officer/sarge/whatever on a "brownie hunt"

I remember reading some Resistence 2 text logs where the american goverment flat out admited in they planes that huge portions of the american public and territory would be abandoned to allow the armed forces and key technical specialist to retreat toward the american heartland and dig-in there. It was pretty much my introduction to actual concept of acceptable losses.

The beauty of American life is being able to have more shit than is strategically necessary.

Guess who doesn't get to keep all their shit up to and including their lives if Americans have to start thinking strategically.

>in they planes
*in their plans

...the americans?

can evil come back onto the spengies serb and make everyone leader
it's shitty that only one person can invite

also, we need to do mining trips to a planet for uranium and shit

...

And people say Americans are getting dumber.

>advancing slowly with their guns drawn
>not sprinting in and dropping a bunch of turrets before ganking their movement speed (with autofill, of course)

P. shit military senpai, probably won't survive the first spawn they try to clear.

I can't see the middle part.

Too happy, very suspicious
no wonder he got fired

tried to change color to make it better which made it worse
"too happy, very suspicious, no wonder he got fired"

>oh no America has strategic depth! What a tragedy

It is very rare for american media to admit that in a realistic scenario of large scale invasion that isn't immediately beaten back, huge portions of the territory and of the population would be outright abandoned and left to their fates.

The media is for making you feel really good about yourself and incredibly nervous about everything else, not making you accept hard truths.

I need more of those stories.

Here's a really good one. I don't want to post too much off-topic stuff and piss off a janny though.

Dammit meant to reply to this

It wouldn't be as bad for the civilian population as you might think. The occupying force wouldn't want to abuse the locals too much, for the same reason they wouldn't want to execute captured fighters.
