I use this all the friggin time, it’s such a huge time saver
Though, if it’s a particularly complex build, I’ll usually use Satisfactory Tools’ production calculator along with Satisfactory Calculator’s interactive map to plan where to source materials…
They’re not complicated, I just have a couple containers that feed through two layers of constructor to make solid biofuel that sits ready for 8 burners in case my production ever starts dipping over the line… 240 MW isn’t much but it only starts burning if needed and gives me time to ramp up coal or shut something down before everything goes offline
I don’t know if it’ll be useful at all once I get my first fuel generators running (just unlocked it this playthrough), but they’ve kicked on a couple of times even into mid tier 5…
Basically, they’re extra “batteries” that “charge up” every time I chop down trees to make room for factories
The extension pack does cost and is licensed differently from the core product
I did try that tact, more or less, but the fact is they kept harassing our licensing people and it just wasn’t worth it so we removed every copy of it and used something else
And the truth is, Oracle can throw an ungodly amount of legal hassle at people if they want, right or wrong… Just because you’re in the right and should win doesn’t mean there’ll be anything left of you on the other side, and they won’t have felt a thing while destroying you out of capriciousness
They’re pure evil and even their fully open source products should be avoided like the plague that they are. Hopefully someone will fork them at some point so we don’t have to be tied to that shitty company, but until then, better to just leave them alone, because it’s just not worth the hassle.
They don’t even care if you don’t get the extension pack, we’ve been pestered by those leeches even for the open source licensed for all use main package only
And they DO NOT CARE if you don’t actually use or install the extensions (unless something has changed, the guest add-ons are part of the free open source part, it’s the extensions for things like USB 2 support that aren’t free for commercial)
You can use it freely, by license, but they’ll come after you anyway
I’m still pissed that they bought Sun, so many great products now controlled by those assholes… Virtual box, MySQL, Solaris, Java…
I’d be a little concerned about going with a single-maintainer distro, though I’m willing to at least check it out.
As for Fedora, I’ve never been a fan, but a lot of that comes from dealing with Fedora Core 5 (way back in the before times when it was still Fedora Core and not just Fedora, which is why the builds are always still labeled with “fc”), and that release was a hot mess
Also that it’s so closely tied to RedHat and how I feel about how they’ve been acting lately, but I understand RedHat doesn’t actually have a controlling hand in that? Anyway, I’m probably being unfair with that
And though I’ve thrown it on a laptop to mess around with, it’s not one I use much and felt like every time I’d take it out to mess with it I’d have to start with a major upgrade, the pace of their releases feels fast to me… But probably not as big of a deal if I’m actively using the machine
Hmm… Yeah, I think I’ll give that a try, carve out some space on my drives to toss it in there
Thanks for the reply! (I had a feeling Fedora might be your response as it does get a lot of hype for its KDE implementation, but a gal can hope for a different option to come up, right?)
How do you mean? And did switching distros fix it?
Also, out of curiosity, what did you go with and how do you like it?
I’m currently running KDE on Mint (Cinnamon is nice but limited and had some issues for me), but I’ve considered trying something else…
Generally speaking, the only things you should be overclocking are resource extractors to be able to feed more production from the same nodes; overclocking production machines doesn’t really make sense when you can just build more machines, space is pretty much the least limited resource in the game.
That said, there are exceptions and sometimes a little overclocking helps things balance out without weird machine counts that are hard to plan for, or if you just misplanned a space and expanding would mean tearing a lot out and redoing it
