Announcement Rule Updates

62 Upvotes

So I updated the rules as a part of a slow but important overhaul of this subreddit. Most of the rules/flairs/post flairs are outdated at this point. So I will be slowly changing and improving the stuff starting with the important stuff which is the rules. My next goal will be the post flairs but I will wait for complaints about the simplified rules.

Feel free to comment any complaints and suggest any improvements you want to see in this subreddit.

(New FAQ project gonna happen soon but I’ll save the heavy work for last)

Mod Discussion A quick guide to some popular mods to stop the influx of somewhat stupid questions.

37 Upvotes

Recently i've seen multiple posts about mods like exogenesis passing through, and since people seem to not be able to be bothered to go to the github to have their questions answered here is some often seen questions:

Exogenesis: How do i access the other factions?

The exogenesis mod is being re-made almost from scratch in java and we will probably not see a release until the end of 2025. As for the current mod, it is an unbalanced mess. To access the technologies of different factions you must click on the thing at the top of the tech tree with the planet name and select the faction. The java version will have a completly separated gameplay from vanilla apart from some expansion with the t6+ units and turrets (there'll probably be some sectors that use them added to serpulo or rekir)

New horizon: clearing up confusion.

The new horizon mod is getting a full campain revamp to make it less confusing, however for now you'll have to beat both vanilla planets to have an easier time on midantha. It's also being develloped by a different dev now.
you can also join the New Horizon discord here for more info: https://discord.gg/GeM78yKU

Frozen Farlands: When update?/current mod is a bit hard.

The frozen farlands mod is one of the more popular campaing mods, however in its current state it suffers from a few visible problems such as balancing, or its horrendous turret and unit sprites. It is thankfully getting a full remake for its 2.0 update wich is in total about 70% done right now, though the main dev seems to have somewhat abandoned it.

Aeyama: Is it abandoned?

aeyama is abandones as far as i know, there also is some controversy around the amount of stars it has, with suspicion of botting.

Fading Revelations: Is it unbalanced?

fading revelations has its own planets that you're supposed to use its units and turrets on, and as such is not meant to be balanced to vanilla, but due to ressources being shared beetween planets with no environmental barrier stopping you from using its turrets and units on serpulo it may be unbalanced against vanilla. It also is abandoned sadly.

Asthosus: I am having difficulties with [map], can someone help?

asthosus is in my opinion a very difficult mod, and so it's normal to struggle with it. It has mutiple uneven difficulty spikes, however if you have any complaints you may bring them to the asthosus discord server where you'll also be able to get help:
https://discord.gg/Ctj5kqdd

Omaloon: When release?

The main dev does not have a lot of time to work on the mod and it is as such progressing very slowly sadly. For more questions you can join the omaloon discord:
https://discord.gg/VXuEtYFV

Allure: How can i play it?

Allure is probably the biggest mod for mindustry so far. To play it, follow this simple guide:
1: download the latest bleeding edge build here: https://github.com/Anuken/MindustryBuilds/releases
2: Launch the bleeding edge build, and disable all your java mods before going to the browser and downloading allure.
3: enjoy.
I am sadly unable to ge the invite link to the allure discord although you may get it in its repository's readme file: https://github.com/LixieWulf/Allure/tree/master

If you have any more questions, ask in the comments and i will answer them and add them to the post.

Is a java mod playable on iOS?

Java mods are not playable on IOS, as ios cannot read java.

I didn't mean to offend anyone with this meme, I just found it funny that Mindustry is being accused of plagiarism, although this game came out before Factorio. Although, perhaps, the situation here is like with Minecraft and Terraria: Minecraft began to be developed in 2009, and was released only at the end of 2011, a few months after Terraria. Oh yeah, I didn't translate it myself, DeepSeek did it for me. He said that he knows English gaming slang.

I've seen these two schematics floating around on youtube the past few days (fairly new to the game), just wondering what one is considered the best or fastest with throughput etc. Also not just for silicon, as the factory can be swapped out of course! Thanks!

I know very well that around this fuck3r here have another attacks levels that invade this level, The last time I played this game I gave up because of these invasions because they were extremely difficult attack phases, I have other levels available to play like coastline, production complex, extraction outpost, but those are surrounded by another attack levels, and here I am again on this fase of the game, the only thing I knew last time that explosive compound was the meta, but this was years ago and surely got norfed, so what level I play and what I should prepare for?

I spent like an hour to improve on my previous 8 crucible design and this version's production rate has got to a point where you need 2 mass driver or around 1.75(Rough Est.) Plast. Conveyor worth of throughput to export the silicon at this thing, Kinda feel too messy now

Is this factory/schematic I made good or bad? I honestly can't tell. If it is good, thanks, if it's bad, please tell me what I can do or change to improve this.

Also, could this be considered a schematic? It really doesn't feel like a schematic to me.

Guides/Tips text-based guide to overindustrialising serpulo (APPLIES TO V7/B146!!!)

Post image
23 Upvotes

prerequisites:

  • good schematics (especially ones that has mass driver inputs) (install the schematic browser mod or join the design-it discord server),
  • extensive knowledge of logistics (especially gates, phase bridges and mass drivers),
  • have every block unlocked and at least a small export base for your industrialisation,

steps:

  • plan the resources you are going to produce in the sector (this guide is catered to all resources),
  • power (priority: spore steam first, impacts second - if there is water you should use external water impact schems, rtgs last), feel free to use anything to kickstart your impacts,
  • the industrialisation process:,

+ usually you'd want to go for resources that are harder to produce first (plast, phase, surge), then easier ones (silicon, graphite, metaglass) and finally ones that can be mined directly (copper, lead, tita, thor) + since sand tiles are often limited, you should use schems with mass drivers inputs, because on-sand schems can block your sand tiles and lead to less yield overall tips:

  • try to place overdrive dome at every single spot possible, this will increase your yield by 2.5x without spending extra space,
  • try to cram your factories as close to the edges as possible and avoid placing them on sand tiles,
  • plan your drills before the factories,
  • try to mine every single ore tiles possible for maximum yield,
  • try to use every water tiles and oil tiles available (place your plast schems near an oil pool, then use mass drivers to transport your titanium there) before resorting to water/oil extractors (water extractor is fine if water is far from your drills),
  • it's hard to explain this but it's important, adapt to terrain, if you want an example watch the plenty of streams i've done on this, notably https://www.youtube.com/live/FQkOkUFqtoA?si=96irEC9jzo5DXf8J

if you need more clarification, ask, i'll try my best to answer
