One suggestion for securing your base before leaving is to make a construction tank. Tanks can be driven remotely and have equipment grid. You can put personal roboport in there and use it as your clumsy impersonation for building outside your roboport coverage from anywhere.

I moved the template to the newly opened area of the canvas.

Thanks for the help! I’m actually going to bed now, but I’ll try to continue tomorrow.

The black diagonals appear to be abandoned extensions of the void, I don’t feel bad overwriting those. I think someone started drawing a Tux, but I believe they started after me. I really really don’t want to rescale, I don’t have a good way of doing that. I was stupid and didn’t think it through, so I created an image and then tried to find a best place to fit it, rather than the other way around. Also, I had to do it in spare free moments, so there was a good change selected place would be taken anyway by the time I was ready.

It sounds amazing. Lots of independent electrical networks, mess of rails, fresh mechanics of resources without anything new while getting advanced resources immediatly… Looks very interesting. Can’t wait.

This doesn’t sound very accurate. For starters, classical mechanics fails to describe even motion of Mercury. But more importantly, uncertainty in this context means someting else in this context. And while it is true that Schrödinger’s cat is both alive and dead until observed, once observed, it’s been dead or alive all along. Same with a tree, once it is determined it has fallen, it has already made the sound and produced all the consequences some time ago. While I don’t understand quantum mechanics, I’m fairly sure the person who wrote the copypasta understands it even less than me.
