Six years and over 150 gravjumps using the Vanilla Gravship Expanded mod I finally have a gravship worth showing. Named after archospheres from the Space Exploration mod for Factorio. This is the smallest late-game colony I’ve had in years at only 9 people. My current project is making all the furniture excellent quality or better and making better exosuit modules (from The Dead Man’s Switch mod)
[edit] Fixed typo in title
Isn’t the engine vulnerable to mortars in that shield setup?
Possibly but my brawler are so fast they’re slicing up the attackers before anything’s built.
B-but you’re doing a Death Star…
Your colony leader’s estranged son is going to show on the opposite side of a raid and land a shot that nukes your whole gravship now.
It seems like you barely have anything in storage. How does that work? Are you not making things constantly?
What is a “jump”? I’ve never played Factorio.
I’m using a combination of the Gravship Storage mod and OgreStack so that I don’t have gigantic stockpiles.
The Oddysey DLC for Rimworld added low planet orbit space ships called Gravships which give you a mobile base that you use to jump from tile to tile to explore the world and get loot.
I called my gravship The Archosphere after a thing from a Factorio mod, that’s all there is to the Factorio reference.
I don’t think I’ve played in a year; I hadn’t heard of a new DLC! Exciting.
