Welcome to the largest gaming community on Lemmy! Discussion for all kinds of games. Video games, tabletop games, card games etc.

Rules

1. Submissions have to be related to games

Video games, tabletop, or otherwise. Posts not related to games will be deleted.

This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.

2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.

3. No excessive self-promotion

Try to keep it to 10% self-promotion / 90% other stuff in your post history.

This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.

4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts

This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.

We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.

5. Mark Spoilers and NSFW

Make sure to mark your stuff or it may be removed.

No one wants to be spoiled. Therefore, always mark spoilers. Similarly mark NSFW, in case anyone is browsing in a public space or at work.

6. No linking to piracy

Don't share it here, there are other places to find it. Discussion of piracy is fine.

We don't want us moderators or the admins of lemmy.world to get in trouble for linking to piracy. Therefore, any link to piracy will be removed. Discussion of it is of course allowed.

Are you going to be playing with a group? Or a solo make a factory? Have you been sketching out possible designs already?

[–] Sudomeapizza@lemm.ee 3 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I have a group of 4 other friends that'll be joining me, much less experienced, but enthusiastic group.

I've personally kept myself in the dark for designing factory layouts as i havent watched any videos of space age yet, and don't know any recipies. I wanna cherish the experience of playing my favorite game for the first time again struggling through all the stages.

But speaking of sketching... Ive done literal sketches before during my free time at work of nuclear setups when i was first getting into those about 4 years ago. (yes i mainly did only solar for a loooong time) And doing some spaghetti belt puzzles bc i was bored :p

Oh God. The spaghetti belt puzzles. That's a dark art, so tantalizing, but sets traps for the future.

Like having one speed belt, and then a different speed belt going below it. Works for the moment, great throughput, as soon as an upgrade planner is applied boom everything stops working. A little time bomb for your future self
