Can you post a screencap of what you guys are up to?

I got derailed spreadsheeting the new beacon mechanics before going right back to 8x8. Optimizing quality modules and simplifying nuclear has been fun too

add me on steam: https://s.team/p/dwg-vdjj/KQWDPRPP

I can stream the game for you if you are online in a bit.

Right now I am building a small factory on vulcanus, and someone else from themotte is building up our Nauvis base

Thanks! As an uncontacted Amazon rainforest pygmy I still don't have a steam account, but apparently there's some way to get a steam key if you bought the game directly? (Or just vice versa?)

Ya there should be some way, we are mostly hosting and communicating through steam

If you buy it on factorio.com (which goes through Humble) they let you generate a Steam key.

Thanks, that's how I bought both the game and expansion, to avoid them losing steam's 30% cut. Wonder how much Humble takes: when I first bought the game wube were still taking credit cards directly iirc.
