3 of us playing, but ive played quite a bitHoly shit man. Less than 3 weeks ago you had half that playtime. You're apparently putting in like 9-10 hour days every day.
Those are 2 week / lifetime stats and we're 5 weeks into this playthrough.
There's one more who's time would exceed mine but his stats are private.
Currently making the first tier of astronomic and material sciences. Probably energy 1 and either material 2 or astro 2 next, which would put us on a path towards playing with the space elevator I think.
The imersite crystal sink that is the material science research is just, oof. Think 2 complete rockets of imersite yielded something like 300 research.
As raw resource demands increase in orbit I've started making more things on the surface and sending them up. The raw cards that become data cards was the first I did that with because of the volume of stuff like iron plates. Think I'll do the blue engines on the surface too soon.
I'm still learning really basic things with the logistics. For example I realized I could have 2 belts look at each other and have one only go if the other is empty, so that lets me prioritize the core drill-derived coal instead of them trying to merge and the core-drill coal backing up. Much better to let mined stuff sit there and trains take a break than for trickle of resources from the core drill to stop. Remedial things for what you guys are doing, but concepts I'll apply later and on future playthroughs forever.
Heading to a conference tomorrow and new wow classic expansion... so will be easing up a bit on this probably.
