Boat Craft Carrier Edition Previous jej: The thread is dedicated to all games about building machines and systems out of blocks, in space or otherwise. Also, all these games are ded. Only ded games may join, otherwise they must have their own thread. Whether or not a game belongs in /egg/ is a case by case matter, however games that would belong in /svgg/, space voxel games general, are automatically considered /egg/

Wait, does this mean Factorio and Starmade are dead? I was really hoping Starmade would get some content eventually...
Michael Price
OP here. Factorio and starmade are still in the list so no, they aren't, but, everybody and their mothers are currently playing opus magnum. I just purchased opus magnum because everybody else was playing it as if it was a fidget spinner.
Gotta ride the tiger
Landon Davis
Third for cringing at the past
Michael Russell
How many times can you beat Factorio before you get bored as hell? Sure it is fun for a week, then no more.
Parker Ramirez
how i feel about opus magnum being considered engineering desu senpai
Sebastian Hughes
actually angel + bobs mod with factissmo and quarry kind of make the game interesting and much longer. Another thing is that if you understand the idea of what made angel and bob make the game more difficult, you could easily mod things yourself as well.
Ryder Bell
Ded as in community is dead you dumbass. Skubmade is proper dead though, idling in the water with idiotic balance updates when all anyone wants is the crew update that was never actually in the works but they let everyone believe it was for months.
Ryder Carter

Jaxson Young
6948 clocks, gentlemen. Doesn't overlap as nicely as I hoped because of the output ordering thing, because the input runs out at an odd offset. Dunno if I can be bothered with jerking this design around the stack memory so that I can run the second pair's quotient early on.
Also, how into optimizing division by 1
Leo Davis
Story time?
Nathan Ramirez
As it turns out, I could be bothered jerking the timing out. Down to 5127 cycles, totally worth doing. Time for some herbal jew.
Jonathan Thomas
I just noticed how much power solar panels produce in Space Engineers. Now I understand in game you have to build a lot and they slowly charge batteries.
But!
Large solar panel: 120,000 watts Small solar panel: 30,000 watts
This is totally ridiculous. That is more energy than the sun puts out, given the size of the panels. By comparison common roof solar panels are 300 watts!
Come on, I thought these games were supposed to be based in reality.
Joseph Harris
I think someone did the math in Factorio too and they concluded that in order for the solarpanels to be putting out so much electricity, that planet's sun would be something like 20 times more energy than our sun. Which would make everything melt and catch fire.

a terrible shame that such realism cannot work, as the scale required would be impossible to handle and still have comfy building megastructure building never ever remotely large structure building never ever
Joshua Diaz
You're just gonna have to take up real engineering.
Andrew Gonzalez

Jose Garcia
I'd need a few centuries to space autism megastructures in reality, and I don't think the shadowy powers are gonna give the common goy immortality we'd need a rich heroic guy that wont get assassinated immediately to have that
Kayden Lewis
It's already so needlessly inefficient, why not rotate the duplication glyphs so that they read from the top of the wheel, so you have to rotate the wheel between elements?
Chase Russell
Yeah this has to be at least 30 times.
Thomas Brooks
Having big as heck solar panels is pretty cool IMO.
But all the cool places like Jupiter and Saturn are way too far to get energy by solar, and RTGs have their own sustainibility problem
How do you cope with the part of the solution that sits idly most of the time?
Alexander Allen
A megastructure /egg/ would be fun if it were a hands-off affair like SimEarth. You play as the 'builder' AI whose notional goal is to create the conditions for humans and animals to live, but humans don't always have their own best interests in mind.
You can fuck around by creating chokepoints so that distinct cultures will form, vary the climate so that evolution takes place, or even try to uplift another species like moths or capybaras. Also, instead of monoliths, you can drop gravitational beam emitters.
Mason James
>that fucking dance
Easton Rivera
Fancy dancing is prohibited, Alchemy is a serious matter. Also are we all trying to reduce cycles? or does everyone have a cheap/fast/small solution each?
Jack Collins
by adding more arms
Jace Barnes
There needs to be a scoring metric for entertainment value.
instead of moving right twice, could you have rotated clockwise?
Wyatt Jackson
mildly heretical
Colton Smith
Mine's exactly the same but slightly cheaper
Christian Martin
Appropriate enough tbqh.

3021 clocks, gentlemen. Do I get an award, or something? Basically two front-ends, two back-ends, massive pipelining overlap and shit. Think I just had some kind of a zachtronics-gasm as well.

Just started playing and this game is a drug, how can i make pic related better?
Jordan Bennett
Truly a drug when it makes you forget pic
Christopher Evans
How do I achieve FASD?
Cooper Torres

Jaxon Johnson
I believe what has happened to engineering is that many people don't want to play opus magnum, but, don't have content of their own to post from other games.
Because of this, I believe that games that are more engineer like and not in a semi computer puzzle way, such as corneroids and that new storm game are the ones we should actually be pushing content for.
Content is that made engineer general alive. How many of you made a world eater as of lately?

When I play Gmod I end up being tempted to play TTT and this is really what fucked me up from making Dr. Eggmans wrecking ball.
Ryder White
>being tempted to play TTT >ever playing ANYTHING but sandbox, spacebuild, gbots, navalplay, and ACF custom modes

Iktf. When TTT is good, it's really fucking good.

The one time I played with only people I knew it was a good time, I suppose.
Then we grew up and apart and now only one of those friends is left, and they have no interest in gmod.

I know that feel. Funnily enough, of all the people I used to play games with, I turned out to be the normiest
Jack Mitchell
Lucky. I turned out to be the furthest down the NEEThole out of the group, sort of, where I'm now basically trading my attention and time for my gf to pay for my living expense, while pulling full cleaning and maintence duty on our living space while also running odd jobs for family. Pretty comfy tobedesu.
