Writing a 3D game engine / rendering pipeline is way more work than a 2D game engine.

With the game engine being written from scratch by a only a few people (in the beginning), 2D was the natural choice for speed of a working prototype.

is that confirmed anywhere? if so then i will need to tweak the graph, as i used 1.5, 1.75, 2, 2.25, 2.5

I can confirm, +0.2 per quality level (Legendary is a double bonus).

Can somebody do the math for how much power is that foundry eating up? For the sake of argument, let’s just assume it consumes as a refinery.

This is the first FFF that has me a little apprehensive. My preferred playstyle is to build at massive scale in nice neat lines, and it looks like Fulgora is antithetical to both goals. Constraints like limited space and limited resources (or managing consumption of scrap-harvested resources) I find more tedious than fun. I recognize I'm probably not the majority in this, and I'm willing to be proven wrong.

That said, the new building types, the aesthetics, and the general bar for quality are all amazing as always.

Yes, there is this late game "fundation" landfill, which works both on lava on vulcanus and here, so you can do any kind of tilable factory designes when you scale up later in the game.

The tile is relativelly expensive, and only buildable on a specific planet, so it won't be cheap, but that is one more reason to scale up to be able to scale up even more right?
