The destination "solar system edge" is locked behind prometheum science and fusion research. It would only reduce the science requirements by 1500 for railgun

Biolabs cannot be placed on surfaces besides nauvis. Biolabs more than double the effectiveness of any science produced. So consuming science on aquilo would be a waste of science production and would likely result in more inputs (holmium plate) to finish

@oblivion_2852 If there is enough spare materials, who cares about the waste? It's a Speedrun, so anything left over at the end is useless anyways. The question would be the time cost to get the extra materials to Aquilo vs the time saved by doing some research there.

@@bjorn9875 download the world and check the science produced and consumed. He only produces the minimum to research all techs and the most effective way to do that is with biolabs which as I said... More than doubles the effectiveness

Its just to get rid of extra iron gears which i dont need. And i make solid fuel because i need solid fuel 😄 I dont get enough from recycling.

@@emailspamm If you want to void gears faster, would it make more sense to go gears->plates->iron chests->recycle? Or is the current recycling speed not relevant?

Got curious. Seems like version 2.0.15 introduced the auto refuel feature.

Well you can use it that way, but I just don't want to drop them all on the same planet. Plan was to save some for later but i think i screwed it up

It's to limit stuff stored in the hub. Basically the number overflows when the number gets too big so it turns negative which stops the crusher doing that recipe. Someone else in the comments also explained it better.

@emailspamm Yes, I found it! I dug deeper into integer overflows with GPT, and now I get it. The last number subtracted from the maximum 32-bit value is actually the desired amount. Once this point is reached, the number "wraps around" and becomes negative.

It's called integer overflow. He uses it to set multiple filter limits with one constant combinator instead of having one decider combinator for each filter item. So for example, a signal with 2^31-20 metallic asteroids will overflow (and set the filter to 0) once 20 asteroids are on the belt.

@@radorei Thanks, I get it now :)

that's insane idea😮

Yeah figured they'd steal my thunder.

@@emailspamm hahaha, indeed. :D

P.S. I finally just finish. 'grats! Your thunder is restored. ;)

It's because everyone builds main bus with huge buffers of resources between recipes. Gleba basically forces players to use direct insertion and yet they protest

@ it doesn’t force direct insertion

or boost the mic... then again, that might make moments like 3:49:29 a bit painful. Maybe those can be worked on as well, somehow. :) (sticklord: MINOR complaint, here... I wouldn't even mention it, except as a reply here.)

Well it works because he is speedrunning. Behemots usually take more than several mines to kill, but since he finishes the game under 9 hours, they are not a problem. He has a predetermined factory size and limited time the factory needs to actually work, so mines are optimal for that situation.

@@nonono4160 Mines also work easily in casual play, explo damage tech makes them much too efficient compared to everything else (on Nauvis)

Yeah it really chugged all the iron 😭

Hmm, I did do a segmented run so thats probably amounts to doing the whole run 3 times. And i also practiced all of the planets a couple times, mostly nauvis because its the longest part. Did aquilo the least amount because screw that place. Really happy that i got a time so close to the segmented run (which was like 8:30), forgetting something can be really painful.

as soon as you beat the game you will lose motivation man take your time and enjoy every planet max research and quality hunt achievements

Thanks for your help man, during the run and all.

Nerfums did space age WR like month ago

@ i know and i felt asleep watching it ngl
