    Should be 100/100. I put in around 500 hours back during Covid and ready to take another plunge now. Fantastic game.

    Between this game and Icarus I am ready for winter mode.

        Have you played 1.0 yet? You can automate a lot of the biomass process now that the main biomass burners (I.e. Not the ones attached to the hub) have conveyer belt inputs.

        I basically set up two industrial storage bins at the beginning of a biomass production line, one for wood and one for leaves. Each bin feeds into a constructor that turns the associated raw resource into biomass. Then feed those biomass constructors into another constructor that makes solid biofuel. Finally hook that up to the generators and all you have to do is spend a few minutes every hour or so collecting leaves and wood to dump in the storage bins.

        It’s still enough work that automating coal is a huge priority, but it’s not as tedious as it used to be at all.

        • Oh wow, this is such a relief. Yes, I just restarted and was dreading the pinch while transitioning from bio to coal.

          It still may mean regular leaf-gathering sweeps just dumping them in the intake bin rather than feeding each generator individually, but even that is an improvement.
