I could be exploring all the mechanics that Fulgora and Gleba have to offer. I've researched both planets and have a spaceship ready to take me there in a couple minutes. But nooooo... I instead want to utilize the insane scale of everything on Vulcanus to build rail networks to bring my SPM to the moon!
First, I want red, green, blue, and purple science to get unlimited mining productivity! But yellow science for enhanced military power sounds nice for medium demolishers, behemoth biters, and the Gleba enemies... And since I already have yellow science, I can easily expand to space science... And wait, I also can make Metallurgic science as well!
Vulcanus is good, for sure. One question: is it just the gods of random being nasty, or there is always not enough coal there? Killed all the small worms around, and a small patch of coal i had at the starter location is the only one. Can import it of course, but that is not convenient.
That sounds like bad luck. I was far from drowning in coal, but had a few small patches in small demolisher territories.
Near endgame now, and switched half-ish to importing. It gets a lot more practical to import with the right tech.
It took me taking over a few small demolishers to find a good coal patch.
I recommend you go to other planets and go hard with mining productivity research and production modules for anything based on coal. Don't forget to use the Big Mining Drills, especially qualitied ones!
Am using the big ones, of course.Do you mean the productivity modules for them? The issue is that i have only 500k of coal to start with (
Yep, use productivity modules for them and everything based on coal, like plastic, oil, etc.
...and then I realised that there was still one small worm I did not kill, and there is a 8m coal patch in the corner of his territory. Hooray!
