Hit “N” on the keyboard to bring it up
holy shit
I wish there would be a in-game production/consuming statistic. So that I can see, if I have to build more machines of type xyz. It’s really annoying to use SCIM for this.
Dude I was just thinking the should be an in- game calculator button. Sweet.
Another cool tip is when you look at a machine it will tell you it’s efficiency. So if something is 10% efficient it’s being starved on an ingredient.
Especially useful when you aren’t there watching the line all the time or if it’s barely stuttering. Can really add up
Holy shit.
Is there like a documented list of all of these little tips? I feel like the longer I play, the more I realize just how incredible the controls actually are.
Almost all of these the game literally tells you about right there in the GUI… When you are building, you get an info bar telling you what button combinations do what. This is smart enough to even depend on what exactly you are building, so it will not tell you about R for build modes when you are building things that don’t have build modes.
Another small thing not everyone knows about: when building normal hyper tubes or pipelines, you can rotate the end point vertically as well. While placing it ( hold left mouse button), you can drag the cursor up/down for elevation, but you can also use the scroll wheel to tilt the connector. This allows for more aesthetic long gradients, without having “steps” on the connectors.
