(Please no multibox flame)

I am a “solo” ice miner. I cannot fly a rorq and I spend most of my time in nul so orca is out of the question.

Right now I do a three box setup of 1 porp + two exhumers. I share a can, fill up the porp, then warp it to station. I usually have a station with compression close enough that this isn’t a huge time sink to do.

I’ve been using Mack’s to do this, using the logic of larger hold since I can’t compress on grid. But I’m wondering if it would be more worth it to bring hulks and tech for max yield. I’m gonna have to do off load trips anyway might as well mine faster, and cut the time needed to hit the quotas that I’m looking for.

Any thoughts on this and

Yes, it’s this post again. I know this question gets asked a lot and yet here I am asking.

I’m currently early mv late lv. I’m running 24 coke ovens, fueling a 4x3 solid and 4x3 liquid boiler.

I’m currently voiding excess c oil to keep the charcoal coming without clogging the ovens.

I have a large steam tank using steam valve to push out to generators.

I have a bit of light fuel stored (I tapped an oil spout and “mostly” automated converting to light fuel) but I haven’t actually converted the factory to using any of it.

I’m at the point where I’m ready to expand a bit. I’d like to separate my ebf, my bulk ore processing, and the rest of the machines so they aren’t competing for power dr

I started asking chatgpt for gtnh advice. I mostly ask it superficial things, more so out of curiosity with how much it lines up with advice I see from the community.

We were on the subject of preparing for fluids. Somewhere along the line chatgpt offered to draw me a picture of the proposed layout. This was the image generated.

I can't speak in any fashion to rather this is good or bad. I just thought it was interesting response that I wasn't expecting.

🧱 Fluid Room Layout (Mid-LV Steam Base)

Here's a modular layout designed for LV–MV scale, prioritizing access, expansion, and clarity:

📐 Room Design

• Size: 7×9 minimum, ideally 9×11 or larger
• Height: 4 block

First gtnh play through. Currently in bronze/steam age and starting to wonder if I should go back and do some “magic mods” progression before continuing.

I guess what I’m asking is

1. Is there a particularly “good time” to start looking at TC?
2. What are some of the early usefulness of TC ? 3.its been so long since I played a pack with Thaum in it. Is there a flux/pollution mechanic in this version ?

In a recent match I noticed an interaction where Zoe's bubble seems to bypass Gwen W.
As far as I can tell either one of two things happened

​

1. The bubble went through Gwen, popped on the ground directly under her feet. (This seems most likely however, I am fairly certain that when a bubble misses, it isnt supposed to insta pop, its supposed to go through 1 sec animation before becoming a ground trap - I am thinking that perhaps because Gwen is technically standing in that spot on the very first frame that it would open up as a trap, gwen is there and so its instantly popping.)
2. When Gwen steps out of the W for the first time there is a brief moment where the game registers he

Edit; has the rant flair for a reason please don’t take this post too seriously.

Obviously this is a salt rant but seriously sometimes I feel like the old heads in this game are jaded and board af and so they have nothing else to do but farm the spectacle of ships blowing up regardless of effort or escalation.

I lost a bit under 100M today to two low sec gate camps coming out of Jita. Wanted to move a mining barge into a little WH setup so I figured id buy the barge, fly through high sec to the system containing our WH chain and head home. Both attempts I landed in two separate gate camps.

I get it, open world pvp game, nothing is safe and all that etc etc.

But geez man, Im certain

Has anyone figured out a good method for granted transformation mastery to a townie that isn't part of the house hold?

I bite one of the NPC's and wait for the transformation. But I can't do any of the werewolf interactions with her because she doesn't have transformation mastery. I decided to wait and see would get it on her own but now I'm starting to wording if I need to trap her on full moon night to be able to grant her this ability.

I am not sure if it is just me but I find myself having a very hard time spotting things on the map with just my eye. Perhaps its because I am new to the game, I am hoping that it will get better, but I just notice that the game has a distinct lack of clear visual indicators on the map. I often find myself having to go to my ship list, and click through them one at a time, multiple times, just to keep a good picture of where the units are because I cant simply scroll out and at a glance spot them out. It would be nice of, for example, the type of ship had an icon that sat above it that was ALWAYS ON TOP and had some sort of visual or color tone to it to make it easier to see. In Civ, each un

TLDR in the title

I've been experimenting with Ziggs lately. I was hoping that RT would be a good opportunity for Ziggs as a champion to shine. In my experience so far it seems like Ziggs doesn't really promote his own interest well.

Ziggs wants to see land marks be destroyed both for his level as well as for his dps to nexus which feels like the most value. The 1-2 dps to blocker is ok but I don't really feel like Ziggs needed to be someone to swing with in the first place. This passive seems misplaced. I couldn't seem to figure him out.

Until I saw this card

Sorry if this post comes off as a rant thread. I have a legitimate concern about the increase of sponsored videos where the tuber basically circumvents my paid memebership by doing an ad in the actual video.

I do not like commercials. I do not like ads. I pay premium subscriptions to many platforms that I frequent for this exact purpose. I have been a YouTube premium subscriber for over a year and it’s starting to really annoy me that despite having paid for this service I am still subjected to advertisements. Sure I can skip ahead in the video but none the less I feel that my membership is being devalued.

Am I alone in this??

Today I took my first every exam certification. I've always been into computers and have tried to work that into my career in what ever ways I could but usually that resulted in things that were more industry adjacent if anything, like bestbuy/geek squad, call center tech support, etc. I have had some schooling but mostly just self taught over the years. I am 27. I decided to take the exam to hopefully increase my odds of landing a decent IT job, but also to confirm myself. I have always been the "computer guy" to friends and family and even this first baby step serves as an amazing sense of validation that really means a lot to me in my life right now. Without skipping a beat I will be stu
