cleened!

most importantly: I think it's at a point where you can read through the rules once and understand them.

And I think it's also at a point where you can skip the Core rules and still understand basically everything you need to know.

If I'm wrong, and there's anything you're not sure about, please let me know!

to be clear: the *words* "enact" and "repeal" have been removed, and replaced with more common words, like "add" and "remove"

The most notable change is that "enact" and "repeal" have now been removed from the rules entirely.

The second most notable change is that I removed 2 of the rules: one of the rules was redundant, the other one just confused people.

Something else of note is that I removed all references to "amendments of amendments of a rule" — it made sentences long and confusing, and you can easily achieve the same thing without it.

All the other changes are noted in the Errata section.

wait, factorio 0.17 is out!

let's gooooo

ok, for my next game, I'm using the railworld preset (big ore patches far apart, biters don't expand), but modified so that:
• biter evolution is much slower
• each ore patch is richer than normal

idk, I like having biters because it gives you a consequence for polution.

But when my defenses are dealing with a different biter attack every 10 seconds, and one in 10 biter attacks damage something, that's a lot of time travelling to the other side of the base to see what broke

hmm.... I'm starting to resent this game of factorio that I've got going - I'm spending more time dealing with biters and power going out and basic ore throughput issues than I am actually building stuff.

I think I'm going to start again, but maybe with a different world preset?
